Zhou Xingdou did not rush to leave, but instead went to Lin Fan's residence. Now that he was back in this disciple's residence, Zhou Xingdou felt a little strange.
At first, he and Lin Fan appeared to be loyal to each other, but behind the scenes, they each harbored ulterior motives and acted hypocritically.
Lin Fan's physical body is still there, but the soul inside is now Zhou Xingdou's servant.
Lin Hua seemed to sense something and guessed that Zhou Xingdou would come looking for him. At that moment, he took the initiative to open the door and hurriedly welcomed Zhou Xingdou inside.
After welcoming Zhou Xingdou inside, Lin Hua knelt down with a thud, saying with utmost respect:
"Greetings, my lord. Is there anything I may assist you with?"
Lin Hua was extremely grateful to Zhou Xingdou even though he hadn't been branded with the slave mark. After all, even if that beast Lin Fan hadn't died, it would have been impossible for him to be resurrected and restored so quickly.
Zhou Xingdou raised his hand and slowly said:
"Get up, I just have something I want to ask you."
Perhaps due to his personality, Lin Hua, despite having been implanted with the Myriad Transformations Slave Mark, was not too restrained and immediately stood up and said:
"My lord, please ask. I will answer without reservation."
Zhou Xingdou is more magnanimous now and doesn't care too much about formalities. Looking into Lin Hua's eyes, he asked in a deep voice:
"Has Yun Jinzhi sent you any letters during this time, or contacted you in any other way?"
After thinking for a moment, Lin Hua shook his head:
"No, it has been more than a month since the Lord left, and no one has contacted me."
Zhou Xingdou wasn't too disappointed by Lin Hua's answer. He had only asked casually; it would be best if he gained something, but it would be normal if he didn't.
"Do you think Yun Jinzhi has anything unusual about her?"
Zhou Xingdou didn't have much hope for this problem either. Lin Hua only woke up after Lin Fan went to the Xuan Tian Dao Sect, and probably hadn't had any contact with Yun Jinzhi since then.
Moreover, even the real Lin Fan probably doesn't know about his mother's abnormality, so how could Lin Hua, the fake Lin Fan, possibly know?
But this time Zhou Xingdou miscalculated. Lin Hua frowned slightly, pondering for a moment, and then said:
"Yun Jinzhi is probably not simple!"
Zhou Xingdou's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly asked:
How do you know?
Lin Hua naturally couldn't hide anything, and immediately revealed everything:
“I had a moment of clarity in that jade pendant. If I remember correctly, it wasn’t in Lin Fan’s father’s hands, but in Yun Jinzhi’s. It was Yun Jinzhi who gave the jade pendant to Lin Fan.”
Zhou Xingdou did not immediately assume that Yun Jinzhi was problematic, but instead rationally stated:
"This doesn't prove anything. Before Lin Fan's father went to the outer realms, he probably gave this jade pendant to Yun Jinzhi. It's normal that it's not in Lin Tong's hands."
Lin Hua shook his head:
"No, Master, Lin Tong is of the Lin family bloodline. If the jade pendant was ever in his possession, how could I not have absorbed his spiritual energy to awaken?"
"I am in a remnant soul state, but the jade pendant contains a bloodline mark. As long as the Lin family bloodline holds onto it, it will surely absorb spiritual power in secret. However, so many years have passed, and I have only awakened this once."
At this point, Lin Hua paused, and seeing that Zhou Xingdou's expression was not displeased, he continued:
"Moreover, if we're talking about waking up, given my condition back then, it would probably take another hundred years. Even if I absorbed Lin Fan's spiritual energy, it would still take more than a year. But I suddenly woke up before, which left me completely baffled."
Zhou Xingdou sighed softly. Lin Hua's words made sense, but he didn't understand why he had never thought of this before, nor had anyone brought it up.
But when he began to suspect Yun Jinzhi, one suspicious point after another surfaced, which was quite unusual.
But Lin Hua couldn't lie to himself, because the Myriad Transformations Slave Seal was still rooted in his true spirit, so Lin Hua couldn't lie to Zhou Xingdou.
However, Lin Hua's early awakening should have nothing to do with Yun Jinzhi, but rather with Lin Fan's innate good fortune turning danger into blessing, and also due to Zhou Xingdou.
However, Lin Tong's situation is indeed difficult to explain. After all, as Lin Hua said, if Lin Tong had ever possessed the jade pendant, Lin Hua would not have failed to sense the Lin family bloodline, and the jade pendant would certainly have absorbed Lin Tong's spiritual energy.
How could it have only barely awakened in Lin Fan's hands?
Stephen Chow sighed and nodded slightly:
"I understand. If anyone secretly contacts you, or if there is any unusual activity, please let me know immediately."
After saying that, Zhou Xingdou threw down a communication talisman and transformed into lightning, leaving Jiuxuan Peak and flying out of Xuantian Dao Sect.
Zhou Xingdou did not use any stealth skills to conceal his figure, as it was meaningless to him, and he did not care whether the traitors in the Xuantian Dao Sect would make a move.
Come if you dare, save yourself the trouble of deciphering it. At worst, we can just open the celestial constellations again.
Fahai and Yuan Tian had been waiting at the giant star chariot, and when Yuan Tian saw Zhou Xingdou appear, he immediately went to greet him with some embarrassment.
Zhou Xingdou was puzzled by Yuan Tian's behavior. Such a shameless person shouldn't be showing any embarrassment on his face.
Yuan Tian was extremely hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't bring himself to say it.
Zhou Xingdou frowned slightly, and asked with a hint of doubt:
"What is it? Speak up if you have something to say."
"I...I..."
But Yuan Tian was still a little hesitant, and even when he opened his mouth, he couldn't get it out.
Just as Zhou Xingdou was wondering if Yuan Tian was lacking weapons and resources and was about to ask for them, Fahai, unable to bear it any longer, spoke up on Yuan Tian's behalf:
"He wanted to ask his master for permission to resign for a few days so he could go home and visit his family."
That's it?
Zhou Xingdou was momentarily speechless. He had thought it would be a difficult matter, but he hadn't expected it to be just a matter of resigning for a few days.
He had originally thought that if Yuan Tian asked for a weapon, he could give him a quasi-emperor level whisk, which he had searched through several treasure vaults to find. Now it seems that he can save himself the trouble.
But Stephen Chow was not stingy, and generously said:
"Granted! Go to the carriage and get some supreme medicine and holy medicine to take home, so you can shut your wife up."
Zhou Xingdou had heard of Yuan Tianjia's tigress before, but Yuan Tianjia was not an adjective, but a real person.
Because Yuan Tian's wife was indeed a tiger beast in human form, with broad shoulders and a thick waist, well-developed muscles, sharp teeth and large lips, dark and shiny skin, and a head of golden curly hair.
Zhou Xingdou didn't know if Yuan Tian had any special fetishes, but a real tigress like her would probably be bruised and battered if she didn't let Yuan Tian bring something back after being away from home for so long.
Yuan Tian immediately beamed with joy, thanking him repeatedly and showering him with flattery as if it were free, which, to be honest, made Zhou Xingdou feel quite comfortable.
The century of bloodshed in the secret realm intensified Yuan Tian's longing for his home, but he didn't forget Zhou Xingdou's advice and went to the carriage to retrieve some resources before leaving.
After all, it's a fool not to take advantage of a good deal, and besides, if he really didn't give that tigress in the house anything, she might eat him alive.
Yuan Tian's resignation did not have much impact on Zhou Xingdou. After all, although he had reached the Great Perfection of the Supreme Realm, Yuan Tian was still no match for the nine Ancient Void Dragons pulling the cart.
