It was already three o'clock in the morning when Jian Anhe came out of Master Yueyin's residence.
Because Jian Anhe was afraid that Le Yin would see Yan Ling'er, he specially arranged him to stay in the northernmost wing.
After about an incense stick of time, Jian Anhe returned to her room.
It was already very late at night and Linlang had already gone to bed.
Jian Anhe was full of worries. She lit the lamp and sat in the room in a daze.
Linlang was awakened by the candlelight. She propped herself up and said, "You're back. How are you? What did old man Le Yin say?"
"Nothing was said, but I always felt that his sudden visit was not that simple."
Linlang leaned against the headboard and yawned, "You mean, someone is ruining our plan?"
"After we wiped out the Chixia Cult, we took Yan Ling'er away and forged her tone, leaving a letter of mourning to come here. We've lived in peace for so many years, and when Le Yin suddenly showed up, I felt..."
Jian Anhe frowned, wondering who might want to harm him.
After thinking for a long time without any clue, he said a little irritably, "No matter who it is, the martial arts conference is about to begin, and we must not let anything go wrong."
Linlang glanced frivolously, "Why don't we replace her face right now to avoid any more trouble."
"But you said that if we activate the sub-gu, she will fall into a coma, and when she wakes up we'll have to start all over again."
Jian Anhe was somewhat unwilling.
Yan Ling'er now completely believes that she is Linlang. With time, he will definitely be able to follow the clues and find what he wants.
However, the current situation is too dangerous. If Master Le Yin really finds out, not only will they not be able to obtain the treasure, but even their plan will fail.
Thinking of this, Jian Anhe had no choice but to give in. "Forget it, let's just get rid of the music first and deal with the rest later."
Linlang raised the corners of her lips, her smile flickering in the candlelight, carrying an incomprehensible eeriness.

next day
As soon as Su Man woke up, she saw Jian Anhe in the room.
He was fiddling with the incense burner in the room, measuring the distance with his steps as he did so, as if he was setting up some kind of formation.
Suman did not react to this and just fumbled to get up as usual.
"Mei Xiu, bring in some water."
When Jian Anhe heard Su Man's voice, he just looked at her briefly and started to arrange things again.
While Meixiu was helping Su Man wash up, Su Man lowered her eyes and glanced at Jian Anhe.
He was drawing something on the ground with the red liquid in his hand. The pattern was exactly the same as the red mark on her face.
Su Man knew that they were about to take action.
Just as she was sitting in front of the mirror getting her eyebrows embroidered, Linlang came in, holding the jar that could make her unable to move.
As soon as Su Man saw it, a panic rose in her heart, not only from the response of the child Gu to the mother Gu, but also from the panic of being unable to control herself.
However, Su Man did not show any abnormality. She let Mei Xiu support her and sat down at the table, which was the center of the strange pattern on the ground.
At the same time, Linlang exchanged glances with Jian Anhe. Just as she was about to open the lid of the jar, Su Man suddenly spoke.
"Mei Xiu, go get some peppermint oil. I have a terrible headache."
Linlang paused and gave Meixiu a subtle wink.
Mei Xiu's eyes rolled around, "Uh, ma'am, what's wrong with you?"
Su Man held her forehead with her hand, looking weary. "I had a strange dream last night. In the dream, I seemed to be being chased by someone, and I traveled to a very far place just to hide something."
“…”
As if unaware that her words had frozen the two people in the room, Su Man shook her head with a smile, "It must be because my husband has been playing some hidden treasure game with me lately, which has made even my dreams so strange."
When Jian Anhe, who was standing behind her, heard this, she was shocked at first, but then she was replaced by ecstasy.
He quickly mouthed the words to the eyebrow embroidery, "Where is it hidden?"
Mei Xiu understood what he meant and pretended to be interested and asked, "Then where did you hide that thing, Madam?"
Su Man held up her chin and recalled, "It seems to be in a place called Jinyang, where there is a mountain forest that stretches as far as the eye can see."
“…”
"Eyebrow embroidery?"
"Well, ma'am, why don't you have breakfast first? I'll bring the peppermint oil later."
"Okay."
Meixiu put the dish into Suman's bowl. Suman fumbled and ate slowly with a spoon.
She ate seriously, pretending not to notice the two people going out one after another.

Jian Anhe and Mei Xiu walked away quickly.
When they were out of Su Man's earshot, Jian Anhe lowered her voice and said, "We must take her to Jinyang."
Linlang disagreed, "Aren't you afraid that her memory will be restored? Right now, we have internal and external troubles. We should first change our face and then talk about it later."
"She's already remembered where the item is hidden. If we activate the Sub-Gu now, we'll be wasting a golden opportunity. Just think about it, if we can get Alliance Leader Yan's relics and master the magic, we'll be invincible. Who would care about music then?"
When Jian Anhe said this, she seemed to have seen his glorious appearance commanding the heroes, and her cheeks were faintly flushed. "Anyway, the martial arts conference is being held in Jinyang, so let's take her to Jinyang first. If she recovers her memory during the trip, with the two of us here, can she still escape from our grasp?"
Linlang was also persuaded.
After all, they have wasted several years on Yan Ling'er, and now they are about to get what they want, and no one is willing to give up.
