Chapter 333 He's better than me
"Dragon vein?" Ye Wanxi glanced at the back seat subconsciously.
After confirming that Fengtian Domain had set up a barrier in advance, making it impossible for Gao Min to hear their conversation, she anxiously asked, "What happened to the dragon vein?"
The so-called dragon veins are the veins of mountains and rivers.
There is an ancient saying that Pangu created the world, but died from exhaustion, and his body transformed into the four cardinal directions and five directions of mountains and rivers, while his blood transformed into rivers and seas.
Therefore, the mountain ranges determine the direction of rivers, and the two work together to generate energy and form the land beneath our feet, which is called the dragon vein.
Everyone understands the principle, but with so many mountains and rivers in China, apart from a select few, no one knows the exact location of the dragon vein.
Feng Tianyu remained silent for a moment before truthfully saying, "Back then, when I chose to split my divine soul, I foresaw that when we entered the mortal world, those unspeakable and filthy things would be left unchecked and might take the opportunity to stir up trouble. So I placed half of my magical power, along with the mineral vein that my master gave you, under the dragon vein to protect this land."
Ye Wanxi's expression changed slightly: "You mean, the magical power you split off was suppressed under the dragon vein, so now..."
"After the storage ring was found and my memories were restored through soul fusion, that half of the magic power was of the same origin as mine. It sensed my presence and was inevitably a little... restless."
Ye Wanxi: "..." No wonder Zou Yiluan suddenly rushed to find Feng Tianyu in such a hurry. This dragon vein suddenly moved. Who knows if it is a warning sign of some kind of natural disaster or man-made calamity?
But who could have imagined that the real reason for this farce was that someone's unretrieved magical power was causing trouble underneath?
Ye Wanxi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and frowned, saying, "That's not right, how did he know that half of your extracted magic power was pressed down there?"
"He didn't know, he just thought I might be able to help."
"You?" Ye Wanxi was still somewhat puzzled.
Logically speaking, since they didn't know that half of the senior brother's power was suppressed underneath, shouldn't they be asking for my help? Why are they asking the senior brother instead?
“They’re coming to me probably because someone tried to cause you trouble through me before, and what they said wasn’t very pleasant, so I couldn’t help but teach them a little lesson.”
"..." I always felt that the "little lesson" that the senior brother mentioned was not just a simple lesson!
Are they... alright now?
"It's fine, I can eat and sleep well." It's just that I'll be unlucky for a while.
Ye Wanxi was unaware of her senior brother's ulterior motives. Hearing this, she breathed a sigh of relief and then muttered, "Why didn't you tell me about something so important?"
"I've chased everyone away, there's nothing more to say."
Ye Wanxi blinked, thinking that Feng Tianyu's words made sense, so she stopped dwelling on the topic.
"Do you want me to come with you?"
"No need, it's just a matter of suppressing it again, a small matter."
"Resuppress them?" Ye Wanxi frowned, somewhat worried. "Can't we take them back?"
"Yes, but not now. That half of the magical power has been suppressed there for hundreds or thousands of years, almost fused with the dragon vein. If we rashly separate it from the dragon vein, I'm afraid..." it won't be as simple as just moving it.
What Feng Tianyu didn't mention was that, besides half of his own magical power, there was something else suppressing it underneath.
If no substitute can be found to suppress it, and I rashly withdraw my magic power, that thing will definitely come out, and then it will be troublesome.
Ye Wanxi didn't think much of what he said: "Then be careful and call me if you need anything."
"Um."
Feng Tianyu returned home ahead of schedule. Secretary Guan, who was overwhelmed by countless documents, was overjoyed upon receiving the news and rushed to the airport to pick him up.
In contrast to his jubilation, Gao Min couldn't help but feel wary as she watched someone's departing figure.
After seeing Feng Tianyu off, Ye Wanxi turned around and was startled to see Gao Min's sullen face. "What's wrong? Why do you look so strange? Did something happen at the company again?"
"The company is fine."
"Oh, that's good."
"You need something."
"???"
Ye Wanxi looked bewildered: "What's wrong with me? What happened to me? Who bought trending topics to smear me again?"
"Tell me honestly, how did your man get involved with that Mr. Zou? Could it be that he had this in mind from the beginning, deliberately getting close to you and then connecting with Mr. Zou and his group..."
Ye Wanxi listened with great interest at first, but her expression became increasingly subtle as she listened. Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "Sis, what kind of weird, illogical political drama have you been watching lately?"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but lean forward to check her forehead temperature: "You don't have a fever."
Gao Min grabbed her hand and said angrily, "Don't touch me, I'm talking to you about serious matters!"
"Alright, let's get down to business. Do you remember when I first met him, I told you that he had amnesia?"
Gao Min was stunned. She thought to herself, "I do remember, but wasn't that just sweet talk that the scoundrel made up to avoid taking responsibility?"
"You don't mean to say that he... has regained his memories, do you?"
"It's exactly what you think."
"So, everything you said before was true?"
"...Why do you always take what I say as a lie? Am I really that untrustworthy?"
"..." Isn't it because you have too many past offenses and the things you say are too unreliable?
Gao Min: I'm so worried.jpg
Gao Min was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came to her senses: "Wait, what does his regaining his memory have to do with Mr. Zou looking for him?"
"Um... I forgot to mention, my brother and I are from the same sect, so logically I should call him senior brother. The part of his memory he lost is... cough cough, now he's regained his memory,"
"You mean, he also knows those things from you..."
“Yes.” Ye Wanxi puffed out her chest, a hint of smug pride in her voice. “He’s better than me.”
Luckily she doesn't have a tail, otherwise her tail would probably be sticking up in the air by now.
Gao Min looked at Ye Wanxi as if she were looking at a landlord's silly daughter, her face full of disappointment and frustration.
“Yes, yes, he’s the best.” Gao Min said, then suddenly seemed to realize something and said, “That’s why you only gave us five talismans that night. You knew he didn’t need them.”
"Um."
"When did he regain his memory?"
"Well..." Ye Wanxi's face flushed slightly, "That night, he stayed at our house for one night."
"..."
Ye Wanxi frowned as she noticed Gao Min's expression turn subtle again: "What's wrong now?"
Gao Min cried and said, feeling hopeless: "Nothing much, it's just that I felt like I was watching a family drama that lasted for hundreds of episodes, and then I suddenly got disconnected halfway through, missing countless important plot points. When I came back online, I found that not only could I not follow the plot, but I couldn't even recognize all the characters anymore."
Ye Wanxi: "..." This metaphor is really vivid and apt.
