Hua Xiangyun was cultivating when she suddenly felt a chill in the room, and she immediately opened her eyes.
"You've arrived. Does my master have any instructions?" Looking at Fang Qinghe who had suddenly appeared, Hua Xiangyun was also wondering if she should keep such a spirit by her side, so that it would be more convenient to send messages.
But she quickly dismissed the idea. She was still living with the elderly, and the Hua family were just ordinary people; it wasn't really suitable for them.
Fang Qinghe was quite excited when she said this. She had never seen a thousand-year-old ghost before, and she was happy to be able to go with it today and broaden her horizons. "Master Wu asked me to tell you that she is going to the reservoir in the west of the city and is asking if you want to go."
If you're interested, you can set off now.
Hua Xiangyun quickly put on her shoes and then put on her cotton coat. "I'm leaving now."
I don't know how well Master's injury is recovering, but since Fang Qinghe didn't mention it, she probably doesn't know, and she won't say anything more.
It was already late at night, and the entire compound was silent. Hua Xiangyun had already reached the street in a few leaps.
Fang Qinghe didn't leave her behind; instead, he floated to her side and asked, "Master Wu, did you gain anything from going out with you earlier?"
Hua Xiangyun: "Why would you ask that?"
"I haven't seen her cultivate for a long time, but ever since we came back from that trip, she's been staying indoors, saying she's in seclusion."
Hua Xiangyun smiled and said, "Since you have any questions, then just ask my master. I suppose you've been by her side longer than I have, so I'm sure my master will be willing to tell you."
Fang Qinghe knew that Hua Xiangyun had misunderstood. She really didn't have any ulterior motives; it was just that after spending so much time together, it was inevitable that she would pay more attention to her.
Furthermore, Wu Chenxi's character is highly respected by them; otherwise, they wouldn't have stayed with her for so long.
"It's just a bit strange that she hasn't been cultivating for a long time and suddenly resumed it," Fang Qinghe said, and didn't ask any further questions. "Today she said she was going to see the thousand-year-old ghost. Was that your recommendation?"
Hua Xiangyun said, "It wasn't really an introduction. It's just that he had been trapped there for nearly a thousand years, and my master and I were both a little curious."
"Trapped for nearly a thousand years?" Fang Qinghe couldn't imagine. Even if it was a soul, what use was living for thousands of years if one was not free?
Hua Xiangyun didn't slow down while speaking, and soon arrived at the West Reservoir.
“Master,” Hua Xiangyun said, immediately going over to Wu Chenxi.
"They're here," Wu Chenxi had just arrived, and Yuan Tianjing had already arrived opposite her.
"You've arrived. How did it go? Did you find my ancestral grave?" Yuan Tianjing had been looking forward to this for days, and now that he saw the two of them appear here at the same time, he felt both excited and afraid.
He's been thinking a lot these past few days and feels that it all seems to be man-made. He's determined to find out the truth no matter what.
“We’ve been to Tianshui Mountain in Nancheng, but we didn’t find any members of the Yuan family there.” Hua Xiangyun gave him a sympathetic look.
"That's impossible. Even after a thousand years, there's no way there wouldn't be any trace left." Yuan Tianjing didn't believe it and even suspected that Hua Xiangyun and the others hadn't actually helped him search and were just giving him a perfunctory answer.
His eyes held suspicion, and his voice revealed a hint of hostility. "I can give you whatever you want, as long as you work for me, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."
Wu Chenxi said, "We've been to Tianshui Mountain, and we didn't find any members of the Yuan clan, but we did discover an unnamed ancient tomb."
“That must be our family’s,” Yuan Tianjing suddenly said, giving a general location. “Isn’t it there? That’s the grave I chose for myself before I died.”
At the time, we even consulted a Taoist master who personally oversaw the construction; I was also in charge of the project.
At this moment, some images and forgotten things surfaced in Yuan Tianjing's mind.
Hua Xiangyun: "Do you know Rong Cai?"
"I don't know it, but the name sounds familiar." Yuan Tianjing couldn't remember where he had heard it before, but it had a sense of familiarity.
"Do you still remember the Grand Preceptor of your country back then?"
Yuan Tianjing matched up, "Yes, that was the name of the Imperial Preceptor back then, Rongna. But what does that have to do with me?"
Hua Xiangyun: "The ancient tomb we're talking about is the burial place of Na Rong."
"This is impossible," Yuan Tianjing doubted himself again. Could it be that his memory was wrong?
No, the Imperial Advisor has always been far away in the capital, so why would he come to this remote place?
Besides, their family really had no connection with the Imperial Advisor, so why would they be buried in their own tomb?
Wu Chenxi said, "This story should start with your background."
My apprentice also examined your face; you're definitely not from a merchant family.
This time, we've uncovered some information. Would you like to listen carefully?
Yuan Tianjing was naturally willing to know the truth, "I will listen attentively."
Wu Chenxi recounted some of their discoveries at Tianshui Mountain in Nancheng, saying, "The main purpose of Rongna was to use your destiny to perform magic, employing a deceptive strategy to change his fate against all odds."
Therefore, you now have no identity in this world, and naturally cannot be reincarnated.
"Then why did he keep me here?" Yuan Tianjing was surprisingly calm at this moment. "Is there some follow-up?"
Hua Xiangyun glanced at her master before taking over and saying, "You have been here for a thousand years and have some soul power in you."
"When he has mastered his skills and can leave the ancient tomb in Tianshui Mountain, he will tell you the truth. What do you think you will do then?"
“Then I would definitely want to kill him,” Yuan Tianjing’s eyes reddened. Even if he was unlucky and could not leave the palace alive or ascend the throne, he was still a prince.
To put it nicely, Harmony was saving his life, but her real intention was to steal his identity.
Besides, it would have been one thing if he had lived his whole life in a daze, but I never expected that he would use me one last time before he died.
"That's the point. If a thousand-year-old soul were to suddenly rise up, it could transform into a vengeful ghost very quickly."
Even so, you still can't defeat him. He's a cultivated ghost cultivator, and at that point, he can take you under his control and use you as a stepping stone for his cultivation.
Although the truth is cruel, Hua Xiangyun wasn't lying. If things were left to develop unchecked, this really would have happened.
As the Yin energy around Yuan Tianjing grew stronger, Wu Chenxi immediately cast a Cleansing Talisman.
She used to be very stingy when using talismans, but now that she has a good apprentice who can produce talismans, she is naturally much more generous.
"If you continue like this, you'll become a vengeful ghost, and don't blame us for taking you in."
Yuan Tianjing was extremely unwilling, and even wondered if he could also compete for the throne if he was lucky enough to survive in the palace.
The lowest of merchants, no matter how much money they have, have to fawn over officials at every turn, even though they could be high above others.
It's so hot, everyone please take precautions against the sun and heat. (e)
