Chapter 338 My biological father is a male femme fatale
As Yu Zhiyi moved, the remnant soul let out a mournful wail.
The piercing sound was like ten thousand steel needles drilling into a person's brain at the same time. The Jiang brothers covered their ears, but it was no use.
Because the sound doesn't travel through the ears, but goes directly into their brains.
Unlike Jiang Yuchuan, who only felt a moment of discomfort, his defensive jade pendant emitted a soft glow, and he felt warm all over, and the sharp pain disappeared.
Jiang Yuwei wasn't so lucky.
Although the shrill sound lasted only briefly, the pain of the steel needle piercing his brain felt like it had penetrated deep into his bones, making him want to writhe in agony.
If it weren't for his unwavering resolve, the dignified leader of the martial arts alliance would probably have lost face right now.
Jiang Yuchuan was both curious about his daughter's actions and worried about his brother.
After thinking for a moment, he walked over to his elder brother.
The moment he approached, a warm feeling emanated from his body.
Jiang Yuwei felt the pain getting lighter and lighter.
Before long, the pain subsided, and instead, he felt a warm and comfortable sensation in his mind.
The process of searching for a soul is very long, after all, a person's life from birth to death takes at least a few years, and sometimes as long as several decades or even a hundred years.
This "living ghost" lived for 150 years before it died.
Moreover, it didn't die of old age; it was killed by someone.
From his memories, we know that his cultivation level was at the late Foundation Establishment stage before his death. He was assassinated just as he was about to break through to the peak.
The person who plotted against him was not as powerful as him; he was just a nobody in the early stages of Foundation Establishment.
Yu Zhiyi: "..."
I miscalculated.
She thought that this guy's cultivation level was lower than hers when he was alive, but she didn't expect that he was simply unable to see her cultivation level because his cultivation level had fallen to a certain point.
As for why this person leaned over that spatial talisman, it was deliberately placed there.
The person who released it was a heretical monk wearing a black cloak.
Originally, after this person perished, his soul was imprisoned by an extremely vicious formation, making it impossible for him to cause any more trouble.
The opponent chose to seal the soul of a late-stage Foundation Establishment expert because they dared not confront it head-on. Moreover, the formation also had the function of suppressing the soul.
Under the relentless suppression, the "living ghost's" soul grew weaker day by day, and over the years, only a sliver of remnant will remained.
If nothing unexpected had happened, this lingering regret would have dissipated within a year.
Just then, an evil cultivator found it and used a secret method to attach it to a spatial talisman.
He then gave the space talisman to Chen Ruolan.
Although the lingering will of the "living ghost" is very weak, it has been moved around like this. It is only weak and not dead, so it is impossible for it to be without consciousness.
And so, it witnessed the intimate moment between Chen Ruolan and the man in the black cloak.
Unaware that it had already awakened, the two began discussing what to do next in front of it.
For example, they planned to let it possess Jiang Yuwei, and then take control of it before it regained its strength, making it work for them.
In this way, the Martial Arts Alliance can be brought under control.
After the evil cultivator left, Chen Ruolan stared at the talisman for a long time, without making a move for a full hour or two.
As she resumed her movements, she suddenly chuckled softly, "Jiang Yuchuan, you'll be mine sooner or later."
Yu Zhiyi was speechless after seeing this scene.
Her father really is a femme fatale.
It's been over ten years, but his charm hasn't faded. He still manages to entice Chen Ruolan to meticulously plan and scheme, all just to get him.
She didn't understand.
With over twenty years of forbearance and perseverance, what can't he accomplish?
I've heard that Chen Ruolan has exceptional talent in martial arts and was once a renowned female knight-errant.
If she had spent those twenty years practicing martial arts, she would have become a top expert long ago, and perhaps even Jiang Yuchuan would not be her match.
If you still can't let go of your former confidant or your unattainable love at that point, wouldn't it be more efficient to use force to seize it by force than to resort to intrigue and trickery?
To put it another way, if you don't mind using your body and marriage as a tool to obtain resources, why don't you just marry a high-ranking official?
Even her uncle wanted her to marry the son of Prefect Song.
Back then, Chen Ruolan was a renowned beauty in the martial arts world, possessed superb martial arts skills, and had the full support of the old leader of the alliance. The possibility of her marrying a high-ranking official was quite high.
Unlike Chen Xinyue today, whose status is neither high nor low, making her situation rather awkward.
If one truly wishes to marry a high-ranking official, careful planning is required, and even then, obtaining a respectable status is not guaranteed.
Seeing Yu Zhiyi's ever-changing expression and the glare she gave him, Jiang Yuchuan looked bewildered and somewhat guilty: "Jin'er, what... what's wrong?"
Yu Zhiyi composed herself.
Being too charming isn't the father's fault.
She shook her head and recounted what she had seen.
The Jiang brothers were stunned to hear that the "living ghost" had actually lived to be 150 years old.
When they heard that the person who killed them was someone with a lower cultivation level than themselves, the two were filled with sorrow.
Upon hearing that this matter was indeed related to Chen Ruolan, and that she had connections with that evil cultivator, the two brothers were shocked.
Then, they heard Chen Ruolan's stubborn declaration.
Jiang Yuchuan: "?"
Jiang Yuwei couldn't help but laugh.
Jiang Yuchuan cast a wistful glance at him.
Jiang Yuwei coughed lightly, pressing his fist to his lips: "I just thought of something happy."
Jiang Yuchuan remained silent.
Brother, do you know you've gone astray?
I never expected someone with such thick eyebrows and big eyes to be so mischievous.
After the silence came an even deeper silence.
Over the years, Chen Ruolan has always been well-behaved. Even during the years when Chen Xinyue took the initiative to take care of Xiao Qingxuan, she kept a low profile and did not take the opportunity to come over.
He thought she had really let go.
Unexpectedly, she had something big going on.
If he hadn't successfully found Jin'er...
If Jin'er weren't a master of metaphysics...
The woman's plan actually succeeded.
After all, before this, no one knew about any luck-changing array, let alone that someone could actually possess another's body.
Caught off guard, the Jiang family, and indeed everyone on the mountain, is doomed.
At best, it could result in injury and financial loss; at worst, it could lead to death.
"Jin'er, do you know the identity of that evil cultivator?"
Yu Zhiyi shook her head: "He was wearing a cloak, so we couldn't see what they looked like."
The Jiang brothers were somewhat disappointed.
"but."
Yu Zhiyi paused for a moment and said, "I've memorized his scent. If I see him, I'll recognize him at a glance."
"Furthermore, I have some guesses about this person's identity."
She will be leaving in a few days after the Earth Ranking Conference ends, so it's time to expose these scoundrels behind the scenes.
She wanted to spend a few more days with her family.
