Chapter 406 Thinking of You
ngyu was sowhat dazed.
She had thought herself to have a mother, and now this mother was telling her that she still wasn’t her real mother.
Her true mother had died, her father had died as well, even her grandfather was already dead.
The Nan Family had an uncle who was said to be quite nice, but that aunt and her cousins seed to ostracize Nan Mingzhu. It probably wasn’t much better.
Did she still have no family?
No, that’s not right; she still had a brother, Cheng Jiuhe! Her sworn brother, who was in fact her real cousin!
Moreover, it seed that her birth mother still had parents as well as two younger brothers. She wondered how they were doing now.
ngyu promised Leng Xiangyu and could only, for the ti being, postpone visiting the Nan Family to acknowledge her kin.
She had a feeling that the person Leng Xiangyu wanted to investigate was the very one behind the scenes, constantly harming her!
That person had swapped her identity with Nan Mingzhu’s. Naturally, they wouldn’t want her to reappear and harm Nan Mingzhu.
But she still couldn’t figure it out; if her existence posed a threat to Nan Mingzhu, why didn’t they simply get rid of her?
Don’t tell her that the person showed rcy by selling her into the mountains as a Shared Wife, as that would definitely make her life a living hell!
Forget it, just let Aunt Leng Xiangyu carry out the investigation. She herself would just focus on improving herself in these six months.
To provide Leng Xiangyu with clues, she recounted the incidents she had encountered.
Leng Xiangyu gave a wry smile, “It seems that this behind-the-scenes person has a long reach, even bypassing Gu Dongxing and Cheng Jiuhe to protect the Jiang Family’s parents and Jiang Huaiyu. This narrows down the scope of the investigation quite a bit.
Although you are now a cultivator, a cultivator’s thods cannot be used among mortals, or else they will face punishnt. So, you must be more cautious about your safety.”
She explained the cultivator’s rules to ngyu, mainly because she feared that ngyu might accidentally transgress them.
“After Core Formation, you must join an Immortal Sect and cannot leave for fifty years. You’ve only parted ways with for a few months, yet you’ve already reached Foundation Establishnt. You must have encountered so extraordinary events.
But if soone finds out that you reached Foundation Establishnt within a few months, you might as well be a child walking down the street clutching gold. So, you should be more cautious in your actions from now on. I’ll teach you a spell to conceal your power.”
Leng Xiangyu taught ngyu the Concealing Breath Technique, which her master had imparted to her, and advised her to be mindful of concealing her cultivation level at all tis.
Only then did ngyu realize that there actually were laws governing cultivators. It seed she would have to be careful in the future.
Before leaving, Leng Xiangyu gave ngyu a few bottles of pills for improving her cultivation after Foundation Establishnt, “These are from your master.”
She knew ngyu felt sowhat dissatisfied about acknowledging soone else as her master, but giving ngyu the pills was just a way to show her that her choice was correct.
ngyu declined: “I’m not her Guardian. I don’t lack pills!”
As long as she had enough Essence Value, what kind of pills couldn’t she exchange for? Moreover, she had many Spiritual dicines at her disposal and could learn Alchemy and pill making herself, although she hadn’t started yet.
Knowing she had a fortuitous encounter, Leng Xiangyu did not insist.
After Leng Xiangyu left, ngyu suppressed the urge to go and find Cheng Jiuhe, sitting blankly in her room.
Should she tell Gu Dongxing about this matter?
Suddenly, a rich voice sounded by her ear, “What’s on my Xiao ng’s mind to be so engrossed?”
As soon as ngyu looked up, she saw Gu Dongxing standing at the courtyard entrance— she had forgotten to close the door after sending off Leng Xiangyu.
Gu Dongxing had returned from his mission!
“Thinking of you!” ngyu replied subconsciously.
