I was completely taken aback and pressed for an answer: "Really just for a moment?"
Just then, I suddenly heard someone next to me say, "It's been half an hour, why are these three still standing there in a daze?"
Half an hour?
But Luo Tianhe said that we were just in a daze for a moment, in the blink of an eye.
"Brother, you still don't believe me? Otherwise, I'll really try to break his neck?" Lin Zimeng slowly raised her hand.
I did not stop them.
Instead, she suppressed her inner turmoil, trying her best to control herself and not let any unnecessary expression appear on her face.
Don't try to please others.
If Lin Zimeng manipulated me in the illusion she created earlier, thus affecting my emotional response, what about now?
Everything around me was real, without any illusory interference.
But when Lin Zimeng issued a death threat to Luo Tianhe, I didn't feel much.
Perhaps Lin Zimeng is right; my [Earth Soul] is fake, and someone has tampered with it.
Who is it?
Lingmei?
impossible!
Lingmei did her best to shape my soul; she could never have done such a thing. She paid for it with her life.
There must be someone behind this.
But who could have such great ability to tamper with my soul without me even realizing it, while Lingmei was helping me with [soul shaping]?
Or was it something that was done later?
In an instant, three names flashed through my mind.
Jin Ye?
Wu Zhiguo?
Is it that same feng shui master [Chen Bazhong] who shares the same name as my grandfather?
I looked at Lin Zimeng and asked, "Who did this? Was it Wu Zhiguo?"
Lin Zimeng's face revealed a half-smile.
“Big brother, it’s not good to jump to conclusions so quickly. There are many other people in this world who have such methods, but Wu Zhiguo is not the only one. However, he does have the motive.”
I tried to sort out a clue from my chaotic thoughts, but it was all a tangled mess.
Lin Zimeng walked up to me, suddenly leaned in, and stared intently at me.
"To find out who tampered with you, you need to find your true [Earth Soul], and the Mysterious Female Furnace can help you. The things I need from you will only be useful if you remember them!"
Can the Mysterious Female Furnace help me?
As they were talking, the once clear sky suddenly darkened.
Large, dark clouds rolled in from nowhere and quickly gathered above the Mysterious Female Furnace.
It was like a black mountain about to collapse, pressing down on people and making it hard to breathe.
The crowd around the Mysterious Female Furnace began to stir. Some pointed to the sky in terror and shouted; others knelt down and prayed for divine protection.
Luo Tianhe looked up at the sky: "Why did the weather suddenly change? Is it going to rain?"
Lin Zimeng looked up at the sky and said meaningfully, "It's not raining. Maybe someone has realized that we are getting closer to the truth and wants to give us a warning. But the more they do this, the more it proves that we are on the right track."
"If you want to know the whole truth, I'll help you go in tonight. Remember, only by entering the Mysterious Female Furnace can you find the truth!"
She stared into my eyes and said, word by word, "Brother, you must come back alive."
