"Hasn't that transparent man been biting Emperor Qin all this ti? Why don't you just ask soone to go to Mount Li for consultation, it saves you the hassle of investigating yourself."
"..."
Feng Yao opened his mouth but found no retort, it made perfect sense.
"Alright, I'll report this to the higher-ups and see how we can negotiate."
Wen Yan turned around and left, going back to continue his cultivation.
After a night of cultivation, he was wide awake and went to the hospital to visit Brother Ye.
Brother Ye thanked him repeatedly, and as he was leaving, Brother Ye asked when he could go ho.
When he saw the strange familiarity in Brother Ye's eyes, Wen Yan's heart skipped a beat.
"What's up? Is the hospital starting to urge you to be discharged? Even if you're fine, you still need to recuperate properly, in the short term, you definitely can't go running around, if not, you should go to Big Sister Ye's place to rest first."
"Never mind, I'd be bothering her, it's not appropriate for to go."
"Then I'll find a place for you, you can rest there after you're discharged?"
"That would be a big help." Brother Ye agreed readily.
Wen Yan instantly understood sothing was wrong, Brother Ye wasn't the kind of person who would refuse to bother his own sister and rather trouble him.
Wen Yan asked the doctor, it seed Brother Ye just needed to recuperate. His body was in good shape, and after three checks, indeed, there were no big problems, he just needed to rest at ho, no need to occupy a hospital bed anymore.
Wen Yan arranged for Brother Ye's discharge and brought him straight to his own ho.
When he brought Brother Ye to his ho, Brother Ye imdiately said,
"There's sothing inside , sothing claiming to be our ancestor."
"What now?"
"It was with just now, but as soon as we ca near your house, it hid away."
"What do you suspect?"
"My sister told you said there are two places in Virtue City that can suppress the curse in my body.
One is the funeral ho, the other is your house.
I guess that the person claiming to be our ancestor is definitely related to the curse."
Brother Ye was calm, if it were a matter of life and death, he wouldn't hesitate, but involving this, he understood that hiding it wouldn't result in anything good, he wanted to give it a try.
When Wen Yan took him near the Wenyan Family, that guy disappeared without a trace, and Brother Ye was completely certain it was related to the curse.
Wen Yan suddenly laughed, all right, all right, I hadn't even started looking for you, and you couldn't wait to show yourself.
This was discovering that Brother Ye was exceedingly resilient, being able to hold on even when the curse erupted, forcing the process along, which made the transparent man anxious.
With Brother Ye's healthy constitution, living another forty or fifty years wouldn't be a problem.
Brother Ye himself could forcibly maintain the current state of this curse for decades.
And who knows how it'll change decades later.
At least several decades would be enough ti to let that guy miss out on the Spiritual Qi Resurgence's second phase for decades.
In four or five decades, what seems troubleso now might not be a big issue anymore.
This transparent man couldn't help but be anxious.
"What else did he say?"
"He said he was an ancestor of the Ye Clan, that this curse was placed on the Ye Clan by order of King Qin.
He told that after the Last Dharma period and the Spiritual Qi Resurgence, now is our only chance to break the curse.
And the fact that I can withstand the eruption of the curse is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity."
"Go on."
"He told to find sothing, go to a place.
The power of the curse covers it, and only I can go.
The key to breaking the curse lies there..."
"Ha..." Wen Yan couldn't help but laugh.
Brother Ye also couldn't hold back and laughed.
Brother Ye appeared honest and brave, passionate, even willing to sacrifice himself, but he wasn't a fool.
"Take your ti explaining."
After Brother Ye finished speaking, Wen Yan pondered for a mont.
"Alright, wait a mont, I'll check with soone, my neighbor has recently gone out, I'll ask if there are any empty rooms so you can stay here for your recovery."
Wen Yan called Zhang Laoxi, but couldn't get through, so he called Zhang Laoxi's eldest disciple, explained the situation, and the other party readily agreed.
Once Brother Ye was settled in, he even hired a caregiver to look after him.
After taking care of everything, Wen Yan called Big Sister Ye to inform her and told her not to co by recently.
After hanging up, ideas started forming in Wen Yan's mind.
He hadn't seen anything unusual earlier.
He wanted Tong Si to take a look.
When Tong Si arrived, she too couldn't see anything.
A presence with no physical form, no Yin Qi, and even Tong Si couldn't detect anything unusual, there was only one possibility, that presence's consciousness was just attached to the curse's power.
Wen Yan thought it over and called the General Director.
Feng Yao had already reported, the General Director knew the situation, and Wen Yan shared the new developnts.
"Did you call because you have so ideas?" The General Director had learned from experience.
"I have so not-so-mature ideas."
"Let's hear them."
"I dislike these beings without bodies, without souls, those I can't even see yet want to cause trouble, so I want to see them."
"Before that, can you take a trip to contact Mount Li?"
"? Why again? Can't you just send an official docunt, handle it formally?"
"Actually, it could work, but for so things, strictly following procedures isn't the best approach. If you go the official route, can you believe the official answer might not be what we want?"
"Uh..." Wen Yan didn't quite understand.
"For example, if you take a passbook and help an elderly family mber withdraw money at a bank, if you ask at the counter, the answer will definitely be you can't withdraw, they'd need their ID, a proof of relationship, so authorization docunts, and a series of troubleso things.
But in most actual operations, if you bring an ID and know the password, without asking, if the amount isn't too large, you can withdraw directly.
Now do you understand?
If we handle it officially and inquire with a docunt, this is not a small matter and the other side would have to consult the higher-ups, otherwise, no one dares to give an official answer.
But, don't you know soone there?
In private, have a drink, chat.
As long as it's not explicitly prohibited confidential information, the other party might tell you sothing.
Our current interactions try to avoid overtly official channels and rhetoric.
This way, there's room for negotiation, everyone has leeway, it won't be too serious or sensitive."
"Minister, if you want to go, just say so, don't make it so complicated."
"All expenses will be reimbursed by the departnt, and I'll send soone to give you a few barrels of the special drink, which ghosts and other different races can consu and digest.
Also, much of your expenses this month, arranged items, tasks or whatever, all comply with reimbursent standards.
Including having Feng Wei pave the way, or similar expenses, the departnt will reimburse and directly subsidize them.
Moreover, the tiger bone you contributed, the clinical results have been excellent.
The drug release process doesn't accelerate that quickly, at a bare minimum, six months.
But the Scorching Sun Departnt can already make the purchase, I've approved it.
And also..."
"Minister, to be honest, I'm not doing this for any benefits." Wen Yan quickly remarked, "At first, it was just because that damned guy dragged into it, I wasn't exactly thrilled by it."
