They had considered continuing to interrogate the remaining people in the City Lord's Mansion, but since Chen Shuo, the strongest Nascent Soul cultivator, had been placed under a restriction without their knowledge, those who knew the whereabouts of the two men among the remaining people were likely also placed under restrictions.
Since we know we won't get anything out of them, why bother with unnecessary bloodshed?
They had no other choice now, but it was a pity for the city lord. Su Jiuli sent a message to the people of Lanhua Heavenly Palace. After all, a city lord had died. Although they did not do it, he died because of them. They should be compensated. Moreover, the one who did it was a successor of the Curse Spirit Sect. This matter was likely to cause quite a stir in the cultivation world.
But the other party is as slippery as an eel and overly cautious. How are they going to find them?
After dealing with matters at the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Sisi and the others returned to the inn, but all the clues had been lost.
Ye Sisi paced anxiously in circles, looking at Nalan Yunye and asking, "What do we do now? Isn't there any other way to find them?"
It would be great if there were surveillance cameras here, otherwise finding someone is such a hassle!
Nalan Yunye's face fell, and he hesitated before finally saying, "There is a way, but..."
"What is it? Hurry up, my second senior sister is waiting to be saved!"
Nalan Yunye revealed a reckless expression and said, "Although I don't know what kind of entanglement exists between you and that chosen one of destiny, I can sense that there seem to be two forces pulling you apart. I have a forbidden technique here, do you dare to use it?"
Upon hearing that it was a forbidden technique, Su Jiuli and Lin Shuanglu frowned immediately, then said in unison, "What forbidden technique? I'll do it!"
No matter what kind of forbidden technique it is, anything listed as forbidden is not a good thing, and they all have one thing in common: the user will suffer more or less backlash. With the two senior brothers at the Nascent Soul stage here, it's impossible for the youngest junior sister to use it.
Ye Sisi felt a warmth in her heart, but since Nalan Yunye had asked that question, it was most likely that only she could perform this forbidden technique.
Sure enough, Nalan Yunye explained, "Only she can use this forbidden technique!"
Su Jiuli frowned: "Explain it more clearly!"
"This forbidden technique is called 'A Thousand Miles of Fate Connected by a Single Thread.' As long as two people are deeply entangled in fate, even if their Heavenly Pivot is blocked, their fates cannot be severed. If Fellow Daoist Ye is willing to use his own fate as a medium to forcibly break through the Heavenly Pivot barrier created by that person, even if it is only a small crack, the Heavenly Dao will sense that someone is trying to escape its control. Then, the person whose Heavenly Pivot is blocked will naturally have nowhere to hide, and at the same time, the person who cast the technique will also be targeted by the Heavenly Dao! After all, the Heavenly Dao will not allow anyone to challenge its authority!"
Ye Sisi's lips twitched when she heard the name of this forbidden technique. What the hell is this "A Thousand Miles of Fate Tied by a Single Thread"? Why not just call it "A Thousand Miles of Marriage Tied by a Single Thread"? Seriously, can't they come up with something more original when naming things?
However, there was no other way now. Just as she was about to ask in detail how to use this forbidden technique, Su Jiuli spoke up again: "What price must be paid to use such a forbidden technique of destiny analysis?"
Nalan Yunye coughed twice before stammering, "Well, it's just that our luck might be a little worse next time! Also, it might affect Fellow Daoist Ye's destiny. However, if this forbidden technique is used well, those two will not only be backfired by the laws, but it might also cause Ye Susu's destiny to become chaotic or even collapse!"
"My luck will be a little bad for a while. How long is this period? How bad is 'a little bad'? Also, the course of my destiny has been changed. What if my junior sister is in danger?"
Nalan Yunye looked at Su Jiuli, whose expression was dangerous, and spread his hands: "Anyway, I've given you the method. Whether you use it or not is up to you. This is a forbidden technique, so isn't it only right to pay a price?"
Although what he said made sense, it was still a little infuriating. Not to mention Su Jiuli and Lin Shuangluo, Ye Sisi wasn't in a good mood either.
Seeing that Lin Shuangluo looked like she was about to hit someone, Ye Sisi quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother Nalan, could you give me a demonstration?"
Nalan Yunye's lips twitched. If it weren't for the girl's pure eyes, he would have thought she was doing it on purpose. How could he demonstrate such a forbidden technique? He didn't want to be unlucky, and he certainly didn't want his fate to be affected!
"Here is the secret formula for using the 'A Thousand Miles of Destiny Connected by a Single Thread' method. Take a look for yourself!"
Ye Sisi took it, probed it with her divine sense, and said with a bitter face, "Nalan Xiong, I really can't learn it, please teach me!"
Nalan Yunye was now certain: this girl was doing it on purpose. Could she be holding a grudge from earlier? But wasn't what he said the truth?
"Young Fellow Daoist Ye, it's not that I don't want to teach, it's just that I really can't teach this!"
Su Jiuli and Lin Shuangluo suppressed their laughter; they found it inexplicably satisfying whenever their junior sister tricked others.
Ye Sisi sighed, "Alas! Fellow Daoist Nalan, I thought we were friends. After all, you are half a disciple of my master. Look, we patiently taught you even though your swordsmanship is so bad. Why won't you teach me?"
Nalan Yunye actually found her words quite reasonable, but could she please not mention that he was bad at using his sword? And what did that have to do with learning swordsmanship?
But after thinking about it, he found that he was powerless to refute it.
No, no, he can't be led astray. This girl is just twisting the facts!
Seeing Nalan Yunye's changing expression, as if he had swallowed a fly, Ye Sisi was satisfied. In fact, this forbidden technique was not difficult. Although she could not learn it immediately, she should be able to master it with a little study.
But who told this girl to talk like that? Her eldest and third senior brothers are angry. She's a very vengeful person, hmph!
