No one expected that something that had been planned on for so long would end in chaos.
Qu Ruotong was taken into custody, and several Celestial Masters joined to temporarily seal his younger brother Qu Ruoshen's remaining Yin energy.
However, the child is currently in a deep coma, and his situation has changed to become one that must be kept alive no matter what.
No one could have guessed that the ultimate goal of the Sheng family was not to create a Yin-Yang person, but to artificially create a ghost king. This was simply too whimsical.
As a king among ghosts, one who could escape the reincarnation of Yin and Yang unless they were blessed by heaven and earth. One can imagine how much a price this man-made ghost king must pay.
Wen Ran didn't think about it at first. Thinking that since the state had intervened, there shouldn't be anything wrong with it.
But after he learned about Xiang Mountain from Tao Dian, he always felt that something was wrong, especially about this Yin-Yang child. Is it really that desperate?
It might make sense if someone unknowingly cultivated a Yin-Yang child and trained him into a great Master who could defy heaven and change his destiny. The state's weapons are definitely not something that a family can compete with, not even one with a Great Celestial Master.
However, the Sheng family and the Qu family struggle was too weak after they have been noticed by the country, and all their effort was in vain. They did nothing after being discovered and just ran away to wait for death.
They spent such a high price to achieve what they are today. Can they really give up so easily?
Moreover, the last time he saw Qu Ruotong, who was looking for his younger brother, in the ghost bus, the young man gave him a very inconsistent feeling.
More importantly, because Qi Yunjing was dealing with the Han family, many secrets about the Han family gradually surfaced.
One of them was that the Han family was connected by marriage to the Sheng family hundreds of years ago. The ghost king that the Han family relied on in Metaphysics World was a descendant of that marriage.
However, the Sheng family was very lucky at that time. They were afraid that people in Metaphysics World would notice the heaven-defying formation they had set up in their ancestral land, so they deliberately avoided Metaphysics World and only focused on plotting against worldly dignitaries, so the two families seemed to have no connection at all.
If Han Xiyan hadn't summoned Wen Ran's soul, Qi Yunjing wouldn't have gone against the Han family, and these past events wouldn't have been revealed accidentally.
However, Wen Ran didn't have any substantial evidence pointing to the Sheng family's ultimate goal. He just relied on an intuition.
But now it seems that his intuition is still very good.
Everyone returned to the Guild in a panic. Qu Ruotong's sudden attack just now was not like an ordinary person. However, all of them had looked at him before and did not see any unusual aura in him.
In addition, this man had been carrying his younger brother very seriously. The friendly cooperation made people feel compassionate.
They didn't expect that this seemingly harmless person was actually hiding a killer move, so this person could only be taken back to the Guild. Who knew what else he had in store.
Wen Ran was also pulled into the car by several people headed by Master Lu. In the car, Wen Ran told his guess, and the Masters couldn't help but look at each other.
"Who would have thought that the Sheng and Han families have such a long history."
"Recreating the Ghost King, are they crazy? Are they too full to live in peace and prosperity?"
"What is this Qu Ruotong's situation? Why can't I see the aura on his body? He should have been searched when they caught him. There shouldn't be any spiritual tool to cover his aura."
"What I'm more concerned about is what to do with the little Yin-Yang child."
The Masters were talking to each other. When Wen Ran didn't say anything, they said, "I wonder if fellow Daoist Wen has any ideas?"
Wen Ran smiled when he heard the words: "I'm afraid this matter can no longer be decided by the Guild. When we get back to the Guild, our role is probably only to provide feasible solutions for the higher-ups to make decisions, but these two people must die."
Even if the child is innocent, there is no room for him in this world. Originally, there was still a glimmer of hope, but now, what waiting him can only be death, and it is a death that annihilates both the life and the soul.
-
Just as Wen Ran expected, after returning to the Guild, the two people from the Qu family were directly taken over by the army.
The only Celestial Masters who could contact them were some key elders and vice president of the Guild. The front desk lady Guan Ruobei was also one. The other Celestial Masters are temporarily placed in the Guild's dormitory.
This is Wen Ran's first time visiting the Guild's dormitory. It's like a hotel. There are people guarding the door of every Celestial Master.
With the exception of not being able to go out at will, there are no restrictions on eating, drinking and having fun. Computers are also provided, but there must be surveillance online, in the case there may be a fish that slipped through the Sheng family.
Tao Dian lived next door to him and was carried back, along with a pharmacist. After all, Tao Dian lost too much blood and now relies on medicine to stay alive.
But this guy is probably born with a big heart. When he woke up and saw Wen Ran, his first reaction was: "Did all my blood flow in vain? Will the Guild still give me the Yang Heart Jade?"
Wen Ran said: "I asked for you. Yes, Yang Heart Jade will be given to you, and your blood will not be in vain. At least the demon-killing nail that has been infected by the Celestial Master's blood can become a good spiritual weapon after refining. I just don't know who can get this thing eventually."
Hearing that there was still Yang Heart Jade, Tao Dian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he had lost a lot of blood, he was still alive and could always be brought back. In addition, he got the Yang Heart Jade he wanted, so he started completely eating and drinking happily with his heart open.
Wen Ran looked at his careless look and couldn't help but ask: "Did you forget something?"
Tao Dian was eating the blood-replenishing spiritual fruit provided by the Guild and asked in confusion: "Forgot what?"
Wen Ran: "Your little darling."
Tao Dian suddenly felt like shit. He had forgotten Xiao Guai. Now he can only stay in the Guild for the time being. What should he do with Xiao Guai!
Wen Ran didn't have a family to take care of, so he wasn't dissatisfied at all with being accommodated.
Until that night, someone informed him that he had a visitor. The first person Wen Ran thought of was Qi Yunjing, and then he saw Qi Yunjing in the conference room as expected.
He hadn't seen Qi Yunjing since he broke the paper window that night. Now that he saw him, he felt a little warm for no reason.
Seeing that there was still some people guarding the side, Wen Ran couldn't help but cough slightly: "Why are you here?"
Qi Yunjing handed him the box containing fruits: "You are not well yet. These things cannot be stopped, so I brought them to you."
Wen Ran said oh and didn't refuse. He thought clearly, there was no need for Qi Yunjing troubling himself about his body.
However, it was just some fruits, it would be pretentious if he refuse, so he accepted them generously: "Okay, if there is nothing else, you can leave first. Anyway, we have to stay here for several days before they let us go."
When the people next to them saw the box of fruits, they couldn't help but gulp.
These Celestial Masters who participated in the Xiang Mountain mission, although they temporarily placed in the Guild in order to prevent the leakage of information, it is also for protection. So there is no restriction on people from outside sending things in, but the things sent in must be inspected.
This inspection put the people greedy to death. They were spiritual fruits that can be rated as top-grade. Even if they exchange it with points, it costs hundreds of points. It's limited to once a month, it's so rare.
They don't know how the Qi family in the secular world can obtain these spiritual fruits. After all, some things cannot be bought with money.
Qi Yunjing said: "If you need anything else, I'll bring it to you later."
Wen Ran waved his hand: "No, no, no, no, I will buy whatever I need here. So, don't come if you have nothing to do. Things about the Sheng family has become a little sensitive now, so don't let yourself get involved."
Qi Yunjing's eyes darkened: "You know and you still rushed over. You said you didn't care before, but what is your situation now. Don't you think you have no point?"
Wen Ran's eyes widened instantly. Why are you teaching me a lesson? Didn't Qi Yunjing came to bring warmth?
"What's going on with me? I'm doing well. Please don't suddenly turn on the parental mode."
Qi Yunjing stared at him for a long time, and finally sighed silently: "Wen Ran, is there no one or thing in this world that is worthy of your nostalgia?"
Wen Ran's face was full of confusion: "What gave you such an illusion?"
This world is so beautiful, with delicious food, fun, and interesting people. How could it not be worth cherishing?
Qi Yunjing left behind a sentence of "I'll wait for you to come out", which made Wen Ran feel as if he was in jail and being visited. When he walked to his room with a box of fruits, this feeling was a bit overwhelming.
-
Before Qi Yunjing could reach the door, he was blocked by Guan Ruobei: "Handsome guy, how about a cooperation?"
-
When Guan Ruobei slipped into Wen Ran's room, Wen Ran was watching variety shows on the TV and lying on the bed with a small watermelon in his arms.
Guan Ruobei confiscated half of it without courtesy, and took a mouthful of watermelon. It was full of spiritual energy.
Before the watermelon could be swallowed, she couldn't help but start scolding: "Wen Xiaoran, is sister usually treating you badly? She always thinks of you if she has good things. But you, little guy, is not responding in kind."
Wen Ran took out two peaches from the box on the side: "Here you go, here you go."
Guan Ruobei rolled her eyes: "I wonder how you got involved with a Good Person with Nine-Generations of Merit. For this kind of person, forget it, I won't talk about it. You know it yourself."
Wen Ran nodded humbly.
Guan Ruobei: "From now on, you don't need to do the mandatory tasks every month."
Wen Ran's eyes lit up: "Is this the reward given this time?"
Guan Ruobei: "What reward. What happened to the Sheng family now, I don't know yet. This is the benefit given to you after cooperating with your family."
Wen Ran: "Cooperation? My family?"
Guan Ruobei hummed: "You should have set up a Fengshui formation in the Qi family, otherwise even the time and place is right, you can't grow such spiritual fruits. You have planted all these, but you don't think about the Guild. Can you eat so many spiritual fruits by yourself?"
Wen Ran looked at Guan Ruobei: "Qi Yunjing agreed?"
Guan Ruobei nodding: "He agreed. The condition is that you are exempted from your monthly tasks. In fact, this task is easy for you. You also occupied a seat in the Guild. He said you wanted to get some things from the underworld.
"He had the aura that is exactly the same as yours. Did you teach him?"
Wen Ran snorted: "I taught him."
Guan Ruobei was puzzled: "Teaching a Good Person with Nine-Generations of Merit to enter Taoism, what do you want to do?"
Wen Ran said: "Saving life."
Guan Ruobei is not the kind of person who likes to get to the bottom of things. Seeing Wen Ran enjoying himself here, she didn't waste her words: "Did the Han family caused the injury you suffered last time?"
Wen Ran put down the watermelon: "If I say someone is actually playing a big game behind this, and whether it is the Sheng family or the Han family, they are just pawns, do you believe it?"
Guan Ruobei nodded: "I believe it."
Wen Ran raised his eyebrows.
When Guan Ruobei was about to continue, her cell phone beeped. Guan Ruobei took it out and took a look. Her face suddenly darkened: "Qu Ruotong is dead."
Wen Ran let out a sigh, and he knew that this matter was not over. His intuition, as expected, is accurate as ever.
-
Not many people knew about Qu Ruotong's death, so the matter was suppressed by the superiors. The Celestial Masters who participated in the Xiang Mountain mission stayed in the Guild for two days and then disbanded.
Wen Ran planned to send Tao Dian home. He lost too much blood, and even if he was nourished by various medicines and spiritual fruits in the past two days, it would be impossible to make up for it all at once.
As a result, as soon as he walked to the entrance of the Guild, he saw a statue-like boy not far away.
Tao Dian rushed forward unsteadily, and Xiao Guai immediately supported him, frowning deeply: "Are you injured?"
Tao Dian quickly covered his chest and coughed twice, and then said pitifully: "I'm a little injured. Let's go home quickly, I'm so tired." He must not found about the bloodletting!
After Xiao Guai nodded to Wen Ran, he directly carried Tao Dian on his back. Although Xiao Guai still looked like a young boy, he didn't even panting when he carried a Tao Dian. Oh no, Xiao Guai seemed to be not needing that. Breathing I mean.
Wen Ran looked at the backs of them leaving, clicked his tongue twice, and was about to go home. Then he was blinded by a flash of golden light, and the next second, his wrist was grabbed by someone.
Wen Ran turned around and Qi Yunjing said: "Go back home."
Wen Ran couldn't help but laughed out loud, and Qi Yunjing looked confused when he laughed: "What's wrong?"
Wen Ran said happily: "It looks like I was just released after being in jail. Hahahahaha."
Qi Yunjing felt that since he met Wen Ran, if nothing else, his tolerance has increased day by day.
