Just as Qian Yuxin was holding Zhou Yuanyuan's hand, saying she wanted to take her to see orchids, Zhou Yuanyuan felt her hand was slightly cold. She initially thought it was because Qian Yuxin was wearing too few clothes. After all, while winter in Hong Kong was much warmer than in Kyoto, Qian Yuxin was wearing a sleeveless cheongsam, which was actually too cool.
Just like Zhou Yuanyuan, even though she had spiritual energy to protect her, she didn't feel cold at all, and she followed the crowd and wore two long-sleeved clothes.
When Qian Yuxin's hand was holding Zhou Yuanyuan's hand, a faint layer of black gas appeared on the roof of the house. The black gas was very faint. If Xiaoyu hadn't reminded her, Zhou Yuanyuan would have really ignored it.
As the black energy drew closer, Zhou Yuanyuan began to sense the thick, deadly aura emanating from it. As if sensing her spiritual energy, the aura accelerated and drifted towards Qian Yuxin. Just as Zhou Yuanyuan was on full alert, Yu Xiaohan interrupted Qian Yuxin's proposal to take her to see the orchids, and Zhou Yuanyuan pulled her hand away from Qian Yuxin's.
After Zhou Yuanyuan's hand left Qian Yuxin, the black air retreated back to the roof.
At this moment, Zhou Yuanyuan noticed that Qian Yuxin's lips moved, and the black air flashed and disappeared from the roof.
Zhou Yuanyuan's spiritual consciousness followed the black air and found the secret room next to the guest room. In the secret room, Zhou Yuanyuan discovered the jar for raising little ghosts mentioned in "Miscellaneous Talks on Cultivation", and then she realized that the black air was actually a little ghost raised by Qian Yuxin.
Zhou Yuanyuan was happy.
Does Qian Yuxin think everyone is a fool? Or does she think that with the little devil in her hand, she can do whatever she wants?
Zhou Yuanyuan knew that Qian Yuxin had been holding her so that the little ghost could absorb her Yang energy through their connected hands. However, Zhou Yuanyuan saw the opportunity and quickly broke free from Qian Yuxin's hand, thus thwarting her plan.
Zhou Yuanyuan later noticed Qian Yuxin had assigned her a guest room next to the "little ghost," and knew she hadn't given up. It was no wonder, then, that Zhou Yuanyuan, a cultivator, exuded pure yang energy, a powerful attraction for Qian Yuxin's "little ghost." Despite being the ghost's owner, Qian Yuxin couldn't resist its intense desire to eat, which led her to turn her attention to Zhou Yuanyuan.
It was also because Zhou Yuanyuan's appearance was so deceptive. Qian Yuxin believed that no matter how capable a beautiful thirteen-year-old girl was, she could never surpass the Xuanmen master her father, Qian Dabao, had hired. As long as the formation was intact, Qian Yuxin's "little ghost" would be immortal, and she didn't worry about Zhou Yuanyuan's resistance.
Zhou Yuanyuan was strong enough to not be afraid of Qian Yuxin's tricks. It was just a "little ghost." If Zhou Yuanyuan hadn't wanted to see what Qian Yuxin was up to next, she could have easily killed the little ghost with a flick of her finger and unleashed the Fiery Sun Technique.
Zhou Yuanyuan mentioned the Feng Shui formation in front of Yu Xiaohan just to remind Yu Xiaohan to pay attention to Qian Yuxin and to "retaliate" against Qian Yuxin.
If Zhou Yuanyuan's guess was correct, Qian Yuxin was an insider of the secret of the Feng Shui formation. Otherwise, she wouldn't have reacted so strongly to Zhou Yuanyuan's words. It seemed like there might be something else going on here tonight.
Zhou Yuanyuan admired herself immensely. Just by casually coming to Hong Kong Island for a stroll, she had discovered a secret that Yu Xiaohan hadn't discovered in the Qian family for over a decade. Should she say Yu Xiaohan was stupid, or was she, Zhou Yuanyuan, just too clever?
In the master bedroom, Yu Xiaohan lay asleep on his bed. Perhaps due to his gradually fading luck, Yu Xiaohan felt unprecedented fatigue upon returning here. If Qian Yuxin had Zhou Yuanyuan's level of cultivation, she would surely have noticed that Yu Xiaohan's vitality was gradually dwindling. This "luck-absorbing formation," after absorbing Yu Xiaohan's luck, had begun to drain his vitality.
Qian Yuxin sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Yu Xiaohan's face, which was still handsome and charming even in his sleep, with mixed feelings in her heart.
Qian Yuxin has many secrets in her heart. Even in front of her husband, with whom she has a deep affection, she dares not reveal any of them.
Qian Yuxin remembers that her family of five once lived happily in the tony city of the Philippines. Qian Dabao was a Filipino-Chinese, and Qian Yuxin's mother, Nami, was a Filipino aristocratic lady.
Qian Yuxin's maternal grandfather, Nashan, owned two large rubber plantations and was a well-known local owner. Qian Yuxin's mother was an only child. After marrying Qian Dabao, Qian Dabao moved in with his father-in-law. In his youth, Qian Dabao wasn't overweight, but rather a handsome young man. Qian Yuxin and her family lived a happy life, spending their days drinking tea and reading the newspaper, and occasionally attending opera performances at the Grand Theatre.
The workers in the rubber plantation are busy collecting rubber juice every day. Regular merchants come to collect the rubber juice every day. Their family is like all the big rubber plantation owners in the Philippines. They just have to enjoy life every day.
When Qian Yuxin was about five years old, a tall man with a full beard came to Tony City and found Qian Dabao.
Qian Yuxin remembered very clearly that this man suddenly appeared at the door of their living room when Qian Dabao was playing games with her.
The man wore a gray sunhat, and his clothes were a bit worn, with a few holes worn through his elbows. He looked dusty and worn. He was about forty years old, with a pair of sharp gray eyes.
When Qian Dabao saw the man, his face changed drastically. He quickly called a servant to carry his daughter Qian Yuxin to find her mother.
When Qian Yuxin was hurriedly carried out of the living room by the servant and walked to the door, she saw Qian Dabao stretch out his hands, making a hugging gesture and walking towards the man, shouting: "Cha Rui, long time no see, my friend."
Cha Rui, the man with the terrifying eyes was actually called Cha Rui? As soon as this thought flashed through Qian Yuxin's mind, she was immediately carried to the garden by the servants. This morning, Na Mei was pushing Qian Yuxin's two-year-old brother to play in the garden.
After the servant handed Qian Yuxin to Na Mei, he hurried away. There were not many servants in the Nashan family, only five or six, and each of them had a lot of work to do.
Although Qian Yuxin played with her mother and brother, her thoughts often wandered to the living room. A five-year-old girl already possessed a strong curiosity. She was curious about how this scruffy-looking man could be her father's friend. Qian Yuxin had always remembered Qian Dabao as neat and elegant.
