Chapter 154

Leaving aside how Yan Chuyao went crazy after returning home and discovering Rong Rong was missing, how he went to Yan Junsheng to demand her return after watching the surveillance footage and realizing that his older brother had abducted her.

On the other side, Rong Rong realized that she seemed to have fallen into a trap.

Yan Junsheng had gathered a lot of rare and precious materials for her, and she could maintain her physical form for a long time, and even walk in the sun like an ordinary person.

But she also lost her freedom.

Because Yan Junsheng also used special methods to make her unable to return to the painting and even more unable to leave Yan Junsheng's villa.

In other words, she will never be able to escape Yan Junsheng's side again and will be forever trapped in the 'golden cage' that Yan Junsheng built for her.

Moreover, Yan Junsheng was wearing a talisman given to him by a certain master, which made him unafraid of yin energy, allowing him to stay with Rong Rong for a long time without fear of Rong Rong's various attacks.

Rong Rong watched speechlessly as Yan Junsheng domineeringly restrained her, yet treated her with gentlemanly manners.

If we ignore the fact that she actually has no freedom, the two are just like an ordinary couple who are getting to know each other, and the man is trying to pursue her, want to date her, and get married.

"I specially commissioned someone to make this dessert for you. I heard you like it. Would you like to try it?"

Yan Junsheng placed a plate of beautifully presented and appetizing pastries in front of Rong Rong, then sat down next to her and began working.

The two sat together on the sofa, one watching TV and the other working, which looked quite cozy, though only Yan Junsheng thought so.

In reality, Rong Rong completely ignored Yan Junsheng's existence. She treated him as her servant, someone who would take care of her daily life, and refused to communicate or open up to him.

However, even this level of interaction was already a big step forward for Yan Junsheng, who had always been a loner.

He couldn't even sense that Rong Rong was too cold towards him; it was as if being together was happiness for them.

Rong Rong stared at the TV without blinking, casually picking up a pastry and stuffing it into her mouth.

Although Yan Junsheng was working, he still paid some attention to Rong Rong. Seeing this, he couldn't help but smile. Even the unbearable proposal in front of him was given a passable rating by him.

While Yan Junsheng enjoys a peaceful life here, Secretary Chen bears the wrath of Yan Chuyao alone outside, as well as the pressure from Lu Yichen and the Lu family.

Yan Chuyao immediately told Lu Yichen that Rong Rong had been taken away. When Lu Yichen learned that it was his parents who had gone to find Yan Junsheng, he had an argument with them.

Seeing their son growing weaker day by day, and heartbroken over the female ghost, Lu's parents finally relented, agreeing not to bother the ghost anymore and promising to help Lu Yichen.

Hearing this, Lu Yichen finally obeyed and expelled the Yin energy from his body. He quickly recovered his health and also acquired the same talisman as Yan Junsheng, so he was no longer afraid of Yin energy.

Lu Yichen and Yan Chuyao joined forces and soon learned Rong Rong's location. Unfortunately, the villa was guarded by top-level security arranged by Yan Junsheng, so they couldn't get in.

Desperate, the two turned to metaphysics, spending large sums of money to find a master, causing quite a stir in the metaphysical world.

Upon hearing this news, Chen Muyang, who had returned to Tianzhaomen, was extremely anxious.

Others might not know what the Yan and Lu families were up to, but he knew it all perfectly well. He also knew that Yan Junsheng's grand invitation to many big names in the metaphysics world was definitely a ploy to deal with the beauty.

Now Chen Muyang felt that the beauty was the princess who had been captured by the evil dragon, and he was the knight who shouldered the heavy responsibility of rescuing the princess.

He not only had to rescue the princess, but also give her a carefree life.

With this thought in mind, Chen Muyang changed completely.

Gone was his previous laziness; he became diligent and eager to learn. He suddenly started learning martial arts and spent his days in the library of the Tianzhaomen Temple, constantly flipping through books, as if he were studying or searching for something.

“I’ve read every book in the library. If you want to know anything, why don’t you ask me?” The gentle and steady voice startled Chen Muyang, who was frantically flipping through the book. He looked up and saw his senior brother standing beside him with a smile.

"Senior Brother!" Chen Muyang exclaimed with delight. His senior brother had taken on an important mission and hadn't returned to the sect for almost half a year. Chen Muyang missed him dearly.

He was an orphan who grew up in the Tianzhao Sect. His master was too busy to take care of him, so it was his senior brother, who was 10 years older than him, who took care of and taught him. In his eyes, his senior brother was the closest person to him and the person he trusted the most.

Upon seeing the other person, he immediately poured out his troubles.

"Senior Brother, I'm looking for a way to bring ghosts back to life. I remember our Tianzhao Sect has such a secret technique, right?"

Chen Muyang's face was full of hope. Whether it was resurrection or physical reconstruction, he wanted the beauty to truly come back to life and walk openly in front of others.

Lin Jiyuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled faintly, "There are such things, but they are very difficult to do. Why are you asking this? Do you want to help some ghost?"

"No, no." Chen Muyang shook his head repeatedly, waving his hands wildly. Even if he was a novice, he knew that such secret techniques required a huge price to achieve, and such techniques were usually regarded as forbidden techniques by people in the Xuanmen sect.

If the senior brother knew that he was going to use forbidden techniques because of a ghost, the other party would definitely kill the ghost on the spot.

"I've only heard people mention it, and I'm a bit curious. I can't figure out how to bring a ghost back to life. Isn't that going against the will of heaven? Is there really such a secret technique?"

Chen Muyang pretended to be full of curiosity, trying to get away with it, but Lin Jiyuan knew him very well and could see through his curiosity at a glance.

Lin Jiyuan frowned slightly, not expecting that his junior brother would be so distraught after only half a year of his absence.

With his cultivation level, he could naturally see that Chen Muyang was tainted with ghostly energy. Now, seeing that Chen Muyang actually wanted to obtain that Ghostly Heaven-Defying Secret Technique.

It must be a seductive ghost who is extremely skilled at bewitching people!

"This secret technique is rather complicated; you probably wouldn't understand it if you looked at it yourself. I'll reorganize it and give it to you again." Lin Jiyuan said calmly, looking at Chen Muyang with eyes full of satisfaction.

It seemed as if they were happy for Chen Muyang's rare ambition.

Chen Muyang touched his nose sheepishly. His senior brother had always been so patient and meticulous with him, but he hadn't appreciated it before, and now he was about to let his senior brother down again.

He thought to himself that he was a terrible person, but for the sake of the beauty, he was willing to risk everything.

I can only apologize to my senior brother from the bottom of my heart.

Unbeknownst to Chen Muyang, the guilt in his eyes betrayed him once again, and Lin Jiyuan's heart sank.

He became even more certain that his junior brother had been bewitched by the seductive ghost and lost his mind. At the same time, he felt that he had to get rid of the seductive ghost as soon as possible and could not wait any longer.

However, some things just happen by chance.

Before Lin Jiyuan could finish speaking to Chen Muyang, someone rushed over, looking anxious. "Senior Brother Lin, we have received a notice from above that you need to go there immediately, right now!"
