Ye Xingxian had no idea that her family members were using ventriloquism.
He continued, "For three consecutive months, there have been many people like Xie Yujie in Shanghai, including adults and children."
Their common characteristics are that in the initial stage, they are drowsy and absent-minded, then their memory gradually deteriorates, and finally, the person disappears.
Eight people are currently missing.
Xiaoxi was puzzled.
"Can't the police find out?"
"So, when the police couldn't handle it, they reported it to their superiors, and that's how they found our secret metaphysical department."
"Fifth Brother, you're so capable, you'll definitely be able to find out."
"Xiaoxi, you're wrong. I couldn't handle your fifth brother either, so I need Xiaoxi to help him out!"
Xiaoxi was so startled that the strawberry she had just picked up with her fork fell into the milk, splashing all over her.
"No way? Fifth Brother, if you can't handle this, isn't that sending Xiaoxi to her death? Xiaoxi is someone you've defeated!"
Xiaoxi immediately thought: It must be some kind of bewitching monster that first makes people stupid, then eats them, and then not even a bone fragment remains in this world.
"Hehe, Fifth Brother, let Xiaoxi live a few more years and cultivate. Only then will we dare to talk about fighting alongside you."
Xiaoxi avoided eye contact and lay on the table, trying to make herself less noticeable.
Ye Xingxian, however, was extremely serious.
"Xiaoxi, I need your cooperation. What did you say about your fifth brother? You are my sister. Shouldn't I protect you?"
Xiaoxi is already very capable. As long as she persists in cultivating her chains within the minor cultivation realm, becoming stronger is just around the corner.
Oh my, is Fifth Brother implying that if I accept his good stuff, I have to do things for him? Can I back out now?
"Fifth Brother, how about I just return the spirit stones, those treasures, and even the minor cultivation realm to you?"
Ye Xingxian's expression immediately changed.
"No, you're overthinking it. In order for you to freely enter and exit the minor cultivation realm, I dripped your blood last night to make the minor cultivation realm recognize me as its master."
"Huh? Fifth Brother, how can you force me to give you a gift? I'm your sister, so you should give me something nice too. I can accept the gift, but as for helping me, let's skip that."
"Ye Xiaoxi, as the highest leader of the metaphysics department, I order you to join the investigation!"
Xiaoxi immediately leaned against her father.
"Dad, Fifth Brother scolded me as soon as he came back."
Then she turned to look at Ye Xingxian, "I called Uncle Lu to say I wanted to quit the metaphysics department. Anyway, I only joined to save my parents. Humph, I still haven't received my bonus or award."
At this moment, Xiaoxi just wanted to be a lazy bum, hiding in the small realm given to her by Fifth Brother every day to cultivate her skills alone.
Ye Xingxian hadn't expected his younger sister to be so unruly. As the head of Misty Mountain, none of his uncles, senior brothers, or disciples dared to disobey him. Even the subordinates in the metaphysics department he had taken over were terrified of him.
He had never shown such patience before, smiling and coaxing someone like this. He never expected his sister to be so unruly.
At this moment, Ye Yuan spoke up.
"Who told you to crush Xiaoxi like that yesterday? She's lost confidence in herself. Our Xiaoxi is a very brave and good girl."
Ye Xingxian also regretted going too far yesterday, so he couldn't blame Xiaoxi now.
When Xiaoxi heard her father mention the word "brave," she suddenly remembered that her master had told her to be a brave person, and she had secretly resolved to help more people.
Now that Fifth Brother is back, he needs her assistance in the investigation.
Her deskmate, Xie Yujie, also needs her help. Otherwise, if Xie Yujie disappears one day, she will feel guilty and regretful. Besides, there are so many other people who need help.
Never mind, one should have a sense of mission.
"Alright, Fifth Brother, but Xiao Xi is as weak as a chicken, I'm afraid she'll hold you back."
"Xiaoxi, that's not how it is. I'll repeat what I said yesterday: In this world, I haven't found any little girl as strong as Xiaoxi!"
