Chapter 711: Absurd Dream
The door to the rear hall of Baohua Palace was tightly closed, and not a single sound could be heard.
Outside the hall, Xiang Tian stood aside in silence.
There wasn't much emotion on the boy's face.
He was the only one who knew that his mind had already been in a mess.
When he was suddenly struck unconscious yesterday and his consciousness fell into chaos, he vaguely heard Yanyan's voice.
Because it was Yanyan, he tried hard to wake up from his stupor.
But I vaguely heard her talking——
"Why is there resentment from my mermaid race in this letter?"
What are the mermaids?
"...I am a mermaid myself, so I can still identify it from its aura."
Mermaid?
How could Yanyan be a mermaid?
She is obviously the daughter of her parents...
"I have thirty-seven brothers, and they all know more than me..."
Maybe I'm dreaming.
How could an ordinary person have thirty-seven brothers?
What's more, it's Yan Yan.
If she has thirty-seven brothers, then isn't he her thirty-eighth brother?
This dream is really absurd.
Xiang Tian fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up again and saw Yanyan looking at him with concern, Xiang Tian became more certain that he was dreaming.
Although he had already confirmed that it was a dream, for some reason, those words kept coming to his mind. Moreover, they did not become blurry due to the passage of time, but became clearer instead.
He was raised as a killer since childhood, and his character is calm and sharp.
In fact, there have been doubts about Yanyan's identity in Yuxiu Palace for a long time.
Even though Yanyan was a singer kept by Concubine Lang, her expenses on clothing and food were better than those of ordinary palace ladies.
Although he followed the young lady, he didn't look like a real servant.
Just like before, Concubine Lang, the Emperor, and the young lady obviously had something to discuss with the Imperial Master.
Everyone was sent out, only Yanyan was left.
Is it because we trust Yan Yan too much, or is it because Yan Yan is different?
Yanyan said she had lost her memory, but even if she had, had she never been curious about her biological parents?
When she left the palace to see her parents that time, Yanyan appeared happy, but compared to her parents’ tears of joy over their recovery, her happiness seemed too... polite.
It's not that I didn't suspect that there was something wrong with Yanyan.
But every time he had doubts, he suppressed them by explaining away his amnesia.
But what if it’s not amnesia?
If she was the so-called mermaid she mentioned, why did she have the same voice and appearance as Yanyan?
If she is a mermaid, then what about Yanyan?
Xiang Tian didn't want to think about it, but he had to.
He must...know the truth.
After an unknown amount of time, the door of Baohua Hall finally opened.
Xiang Tian raised his eyes and saw the Emperor and Concubine Lang walking out together. Yanyan followed them a few steps away, looking a little uneasy.
Although Helian Yue and Si Linglong did not show too many emotions on their faces, their hearts were still complicated.
They intuitively felt that Yuan Zun had not told them everything he knew, but even if he had only told them Bai Qianqian's current true identity, it would have been enough to make them extremely alert.
Although they have come into contact with many monsters, they are still ordinary mortals in the end.
Si Linglong also didn't understand why the course of events suddenly took such a mysterious turn.
She originally thought that Bai Qianqian was weak now, and her idea of taking advantage of her illness to kill her was directly rejected by Yuan Zun.
Not to mention whether she could really die, even if she did, the price to pay would be so terrible that they would not be willing to accept.
All we can do now is wait and see.
As for the original plan to let Xueshan or Huayan contact Bai Qianqian, now he can forget about it.
Among these people, Xue Sha was the most angry.
It's not just because Yuan Zun knew all these things but didn't tell her, but also because she, the dignified Lord Xue Sha, is the little bully who always walks around in and outside the palace, the strongest fighting force in this imperial palace!
But now she has to hold it in because of a fish.
I'm very angry.
Because she was so angry, Xue Sha even refused Yuan Zun's invitation to stay for lunch.
He followed Si Linglong angrily.
Seeing her like this, Hua Yan could only hide her uneasiness and hurriedly followed Xue Shan, trying to coax her.
After all, that was Quan Xian, it was very dangerous.
It is not okay for His Highness Xuesha to be so impulsive.
Hua Yan was confused and felt a familiar gaze. She raised her eyes and met her brother's gaze.
She smiled at him subconsciously and followed Xueshan closely.
Xiang Tian was stunned for a moment when he saw that familiar smile, and his heart softened subconsciously, but in just a moment, he was quickly filled with doubts in his heart.
So he turned his gaze from Hua Yan to Xue Shan beside her.
He wanted to know the truth, but he was afraid that asking would yield no results.
Perhaps, we should inquire from the side.
Miss Xue has always been with Yanyan, so she must know something.
Still a child...
Well, it looks deceptive.
