The two found a teahouse and sat down, releasing everyone from the space.
"Now all our plans are ruined, what are we going to do?" Shiraisha sat by the window, feeling frustrated.
Ji Jiuying asked solemnly, "Second Uncle, do you think Mother was forced into this?"
Feng Che shook his head: "Probably not. If Kamakura wanted to force Lan'er, they would never wait for more than ten years. There must be something fishy going on here."
"Mother, should I go and find out what's going on?"
Seeing her mother's worried expression, Xiao Huang'er stepped forward and said.
"Little Phoenix, you can't do it." Ji Jiuying refused. Since Kamakura was hiding in the shadows, he must know about Little Phoenix, or even have seen her. Going there would be equivalent to being exposed.
"Girl, should I go?" Hei Xiangling said.
“You’re even worse. Your aura is too strong, and you’re easy to spot. Kamakura can’t treat you like an ordinary person. We have to be careful.”
"·····"
Si Yu spoke up: "Do you think it's possible that Lady Feng willingly married into Kamakura?"
"No way, Madam Feng hasn't given up on this for over ten years. How could she suddenly want to marry into Kamakura? Besides, she already knew the truth yesterday." Bai Lisha looked at Si Yu with suspicion.
“You’re so stupid, you don’t believe me.” Si Yu tapped Bai Lisha on the head and said, “I guess Madam Feng has already broken through the shackles. Moreover, without Kamakura’s knowledge, she has been with Kamakura for more than ten years. She must know how Kamakura altered the memories of everyone on the island.”
"She didn't want to implicate the people on the island because of herself, so she married him in order to dispel his suspicions and obtain something to erase the memories of the people on the island."
Upon hearing Si Yu's words, Ji Jiuying had a flash of inspiration, narrowed her eyes, and quietly pondered.
After a while.
"Si Yu is right!"
"Absurd! Utterly absurd!" Feng Che slammed his fist on the table and roared.
"Lan'er was too impulsive!"
Ji Jiuying remembered that there was a garden behind the inn, and a brilliant idea flashed into her mind, and she immediately came up with a solution.
"Uncle, don't be impulsive. Let's find out the truth of the matter first."
"Little Jiu, do you have any ideas?" Yuehua could see the emotions in Ji Jiuying's eyes at a glance.
Ji Jiuying nodded: "Wait for me a moment, I'll be right back."
When Ji Jiuying arrived at the garden, it was probably morning, so there weren't many people around. She casually found a secluded spot, released the evil fire, and sent it to protect her mother, just in case.
She then used the Language of Nature from the Divine Control Technique, which is the language between plants. If there are green plants where Feng Lan is, then she and Feng Lan can communicate through the plants.
Not long after, Ji Jiuying returned from outside.
"how's it going?"
"Now we just need to wait for news."
Everyone looked at Ji Jiuying with suspicion, wondering whose news they were waiting for.
——
Feng Lan, dressed in a long, flowing wedding gown, looked at herself in the bronze mirror. A hint of hatred flashed in her clear eyes, but it was replaced by a choice. She was all alone in the empty room.
Suddenly.
A white flash streaked past, startling Feng Lan, who stood up alertly.
A white, bear-like spirit beast stood on the table, its furry body making one want to touch it. If it knew what Feng Lan was thinking, three black lines would definitely appear on its forehead.
Even so, Feng Lan still did not let her guard down.
Seeing this, Xie Huo deliberately coughed twice: "Don't be afraid, I am Ji Jiuying's spirit beast, and I have come here on her orders to protect you."
Feng Lan looked at the little one in front of her who spoke human language, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, but she was still half-believing and half-doubting about the evil fire, and tentatively asked.
"What are you talking about? What Ji Jiuying?"
Evil Fire didn't pay much attention, after all, they had never seen her before, and looked at Feng Lan with admiration, noting her good vigilance.
"If you don't believe me, surely the Illusionary Demon Sword will?"
Feng Lan summoned the Illusion Demon Sword. Xie Huo gave a soft summons, and the Illusion Demon Sword flew towards Xie Huo, nuzzling him affectionately, as if two old friends were meeting.
Seeing this, Feng Lan lowered her guard, grabbed Xie Huo, and asked him all sorts of questions.
Gradually, Xie Huo also noticed that Feng Lan was somewhat different from the one he had seen yesterday. He secretly released his divine sense to check and then realized that they had indeed guessed correctly. Feng Lan had indeed broken through the barrier.
“Little one, go back and tell Jiu’er and Second Brother not to worry. Once I get that thing, I will go and meet up with them.”
The evil fire's fur had been ruffled by Feng Lan, and its face was full of helplessness. Now it finally knew who that woman resembled!
"No need, wait a moment."
The sound falls, swish swish——
A vine, seemingly alive, climbed up the windowsill. Feng Lan became alert again, and Xie Huo spoke up once more: "That's Xiao Jiu's natural language. You can use your spiritual power to sense it and communicate with Xiao Jiu telepathically."
Feng Lan stared at the vines in surprise and sensed them with her spiritual power.
Meanwhile, at the inn, a vine crawled in, startling everyone until Ji Jiuying spoke up to stop it.
The vines stretched out and climbed up Ji Jiuying's hand.
"mother?"
"Jiu'er, is it really you?" Feng Lan was both surprised and delighted. This was the first time she had ever seen such a spiritual technique; it was truly amazing!
"It's me."
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't worry about me, but don't make any rash moves. Kamakura has a magical artifact that can control the people on the island. I need to get that thing before I leave."
Hearing this, everyone was certain that Feng Lan had regained her memories. When they learned of her actions, their hearts sank slightly. Since it was a spiritual treasure, Kamakura would definitely not let it go. Obtaining it would not be so easy.
"Lan'er, don't be silly. Kamakura isn't as simple as you think. Listen to your second brother, find a chance to come out now. We'll meet you at the inn opposite Tongxin Hall," Feng Che said solemnly.
"Second Brother, it's precisely because I know he's not simple that I need to get my hands on that thing. Only by getting it can we be worry-free." A determined look flashed in Feng Lan's eyes as she spoke with a resolute expression.
"Since Mother has made her decision, we will wait for you at the inn. If Mother does not appear by Shenshi (3-5 PM), we will rush in."
Ji Jiuying stopped Feng Che, who was about to speak. Feng Lan heard Ji Jiuying's words and remained silent for a long time, a look of worry flashing in his eyes.
"good."
Just as she was about to say something, footsteps came from outside the door. Feng Lan quickly waved her hand, and the vines left the windowsill.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and several maids placed some food on the table.
“Madam Lan, the island lord said that today’s wedding is a bit rushed. He will come to welcome you after he has finished setting up the courtyard. The island lord also instructed me to bring these dishes to you so that you can have something to eat.”
One of the maids said.
Feng Lan turned around, and several maids stared wide-eyed, shocked by Feng Lan's current appearance.
