Seeing this, Ji Jiuying carefully went to the roof and lifted a tile to observe for a while.
With a whoosh, the silver needle in her hand pierced Ji Chenyuan's neck.
Ji Jiuying came to Ji Chenyuan's side and simultaneously released her mental and control powers, slowly lifting Ji Chenyuan's soul up little by little.
Just then, a faint sound came from outside. Ji Jiuying was startled and quickly hid in her spatial dimension.
That bodyguard has returned.
They must have sensed something was wrong.
He slowly approached Ji Chenyuan on the bed, and just as he was about to get closer, a faint sound came from outside, and he disappeared from the room again.
Ji Jiuying breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully he didn't call out to Ji Chenyuan.
Ji Jiuying set up a soundproof array in the room and then continued the soul search.
After a while, Ji Chenyuan's soul was invaded by both mental power and control power. Ji Chenyuan's soul was instantly awakened. When he saw the person in front of him, he was shocked and stood there, "Nine...Nine'er, what are you doing?"
"Me? Didn't you see me? I was just about to search your soul!" Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Ji Chenyuan subconsciously looked down and was startled to find that he was now a soul, while his physical body was still asleep in bed.
Ji Chenyuan was shocked. Soul Searching Technique! She had actually learned the Soul Searching Technique, which was a forbidden technique!
Moreover, the person whose soul is searched will become an idiot. No, no, no, Ji Chenyuan stared at Ji Jiuying in horror, "You, you, you actually cultivated forbidden techniques! Aren't you afraid of being scorned by the world if it finds out?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying smiled sinisterly, "General Ji has reminded me. It wouldn't be good if the world knew about this, so you can only die here."
Ji Chenyuan's eyes widened. The thought that she knew everything about him after she searched his soul, and that he had become an idiot or died, filled him with panic.
"Nine...Nine-Nine, what do you want to know? I'll tell you everything, just don't search my soul, okay? I won't say a word about your affairs."
"real?"
“Really, whatever you want to know, I… Dad will tell you.” Ji Chenyuan nodded vigorously.
“Okay, then let me ask you, where is my mother?” Ji Jiuying asked.
Ji Chenyuan hadn't expected her to ask that. Had she discovered something? "You... your mother is dead!"
"Hmm?" Ji Jiuying's mental power invaded Ji Chenyuan's mental sea again. "I'll give you one more chance. Tell me everything about my mother!"
Seeing this, Ji Chenyuan knew he couldn't hide it anymore, "I'll talk, I'll talk~ Your mother wasn't actually my wife, and you're not my child..."
"Stop listening. I already know what happened before. Just tell me about what happened after my mother gave birth to me," Ji Jiuying interrupted him.
Ji Chenyuan was stunned again. What did she say? She knew everything? Then why was she willing to come back with him? Was it to investigate her mother's affairs? Or to take revenge on the Ji family?
"Now that you know everything, could you please stop searching my soul after I've finished speaking? For the sake of the more than ten years I've raised you!"
Ji Jiuying almost burst out laughing. He raised her for over ten years? How could he have the nerve to say that?
"You go first," Ji Jiuying chuckled.
"Actually, after your mother gave birth, a very powerful man came to the manor and took away Feng Lan, who is your mother. He forced me to make it public that your mother died in childbirth. He also made a harsh statement, telling me not to be too nice to you, this 'bastard child,' and that it's enough if you can live."
"Jiu'er, it's not that I'm being mean to you... I was forced into this situation. That man might be from a reclusive family; he's very powerful, and I can't afford to offend him..."
A powerful man? Ji Jiuying didn't believe in any hermit families. Her intuition told her that the man must also be from a higher plane. But why did he take her mother away?
According to information from Longyang, her mother had been missing in the upper plane for more than ten years.
The fact that the man called her a wicked girl ruled out the possibility that he was her father, and that this man hated her but dared not kill her.
It might be due to her relationship with her mother, Feng Lan.
"Has that man ever come back?" Ji Jiuying asked again.
"No, I haven't come back!" Ji Chenyuan answered in a trembling voice. "Jiu'er, I've said everything I needed to say. Can you let me go now?"
"Who said we'd let you go?" Ji Jiuying said contemptuously, her mental energy directly invading Ji Chenyuan's mental sea.
"You! No! Don't!" Ji Chenyuan's face turned pale, his pupils suddenly contracted violently, and his soul and body struggled subconsciously, trying to break free.
A moment later, Ji Jiu Yinghua extracted the fragments of memory that had just occurred in his mind and slowly put Ji Chenyuan's soul back into his body.
After removing the silver needles from her neck, she returned to Qinglan Courtyard.
Early the next morning.
When Ji Chenyuan woke up, he found his head throbbing with pain, as if something had been ripped out of his mind.
Star Academy.
A man in black appeared in Wen Chuyu's room.
"Young Master!"
After seeing who it was, Wen Chuyu looked worried. "Has something happened to Xiao Jiu?"
The man in black told Wen Chuyu everything that had happened that night.
"Is Xiao Jiu alright?"
"No, it was only by tearing through space that the powerful Imperial Advisor managed to take that Spirit Venerable expert away from the Princess's residence."
Wen Chuyu thought of that mysterious imperial advisor. Just how strong was he? He could actually tear through space!
"A Spirit Venerable expert? Why did it take you so long to tell me?" Wen Chuyu asked.
“Young Master, our Shadow Guards and Flying Dragon, who were hiding in the shadows, were all injured, so…” The man in black lowered his head.
"Alright, you can go back now. Next time this happens, use all of Tian Sha's resources to ensure her safety."
"Young Master? This..." The man in black was shocked.
"Hmm?" Wen Chuyu glanced at him with a somewhat displeased expression.
"Yes, Your subordinate obeys!" After saying that, he disappeared from the room.
Qinglan Courtyard.
"Light and agile!"
"Light and agile? Light and agile?"
Ji Jiuying was puzzled; she had no idea where Qingling had gone so early in the morning!
As she stepped out of the courtyard, she happened to see Xiaodong, the maid who had recently become quite close to Qingling. "Xiaodong."
When the maid named Xiaodong heard Ji Jiuying call her, she quickly put down what she was doing and stepped forward. "Miss, did you look for me?"
"Have you seen Qingling?" Ji Jiuying asked.
"Reporting to Miss, this morning Sister Qingling said that today is the beginning of the new year, and she went to ask for a peace charm for you." Xiaodong asked in confusion, "Why hasn't Sister Qingling returned yet? Most of the maids who went later than her have already returned."
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying's heart sank, and a bad premonition rushed into her mind.
"Where did you get the peace charm?" Ji Jiuying asked seriously.
"It's right there in the square in front of Shuiyun Tower," Xiaodong replied.
The square in front of Shuiyun Tower is the arena where the previous competition took place.
