Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System Chapter 105: Jia Nu
Looking at the empty spot, Linhua's gaze turned sharp, "Even now, I cannot detect Master's presence. Don't we just have 2 minor realm differences? Is it her bloodline ability?"
LinHua feels confused about this, but then she links it to her unstable cultivation bases since her cultivation has risen too quickly in a short ti.
She still needs to stabilize it and master her secret technique.
She then shook her head. What matters is finding out what really happened. But since her Master told her to stay at her abode, her options are limited.
She can use a one-ti talisman to send a ssage to her family, but it's better kept for an ergency. So her other choice is to wait for the maid, then make her a ssenger.
LinHua then continued to cultivate. As the moon set and the sun rose from the west, a woman in plain clothes and appearance ca bowing toward LinHua with a polite smile, "Greetings, miss, my na is JiaNu. I am here to take care of your needs."
LinHua opened her eyes from ditation and gave a nod. "Just call LinHua. Do you know the situation with my family?"
"Yes, Miss LinHua, your family is growing quickly now. Despite so bad rumors, they keep expanding their business."
"That is good news. What about the bad rumors?"
JiaNu hesitated at LinHua's question. Seeing this, LinHua urged her to just tell everything she knew.
With reluctance, JiaNu replied, "The most famous one is the rumor where your mother is said to have had an affair.
Every day, it keeps getting exaggerated. So even say that in reality, Miss, you are the daughter of the Xueqi patriarch. That is why the Hua family go that far."
Hearing this, LinHua's qi started to spread, making JiaNu flinch before quickly bowing her upper body, asking for forgiveness.
After calming down, LinHua ordered her to send so ssages to her family. JiaNu nodded and left to do her task while LinHua continued practicing her secret technique.
Ti passed, and the sunset painted the sky in an orange hue. JiaNu returned, giving the response from the Hua family.
Reading all the ssages, LinHua felt relieved.
Her father said there were no problems, and they also didn't know who destroyed the Xueqi family. But since it brought many benefits, they decided to not clarify it.
The rest only detailed the benefits they got from the rumor. Inside the mail, her father also put a storage ring, inside of which were a dozen dium-grade qi crystals with a hundred low-grade qi crystals.
This made LinHua feel elated.
With a smile, she then said, "Good job, JiaNu... While you were there, did you find anything weird?"
"Weird?" JiaNu put a finger on her chin.
After so ti, she replied, "I did hear it seems your parents are having so relationship problems.
Your father, the Patriarch, seems to always sleep outside now, while your mother rarely spends ti at ho."
This made LinHua frown.
It was not the first ti her mother did that, but she could count on one hand how many tis that happened when she still lived there. And every ti it happened, it ant they had a big fight.
'What makes them fight like this?' she thought. LinHua then sought more confirmation from JiaNu.
"I talked with so maids while waiting for the response from the Patriarch. They say they overheard one of the fights.
It seems your parents had a fight over the rumor. The Patriarch has beco paranoid about your mom. Your mom's face also beca angry when the Patriarch ntioned your birth."
"What? Are you sure about that?"
"Well, that is what they say."
This made LinHua's heart beat faster, and her hand turned into a fist. She knew her mom had a habit of becoming angry when asked sothing she didn't want to say.
'If that is fake, why does she need to get angry like that? If it's just my father becoming paranoid, that is not weird, but even mom...' LinHua thought.
She then said, "Tomorrow, you send another ssage to that place. While you're at it, find more information."
JiaNu bowed in respect, accepting the task. LinHua then returned to her practice.
A few days passed peacefully like this. JiaNu kept going back and forth to the Hua family, looking for information that LinHua asked for.
Every ti LinHua heard the news, her emotions beca more and more unstable. Based on the rumors and small clues she picked up, her mother seed really hiding sothing.
'Did she really have an affair? Then, did my father find out and attack the Xueqi family?
Is that why she felt reluctant when I proposed the idea to trap MingYue?' LinHua thought to herself.
Based on what JiaNu told her, the fight between her parents kept escalating every day.
Just two days ago, they had another fight. Her father then left the estate and never returned till now. Even though her family kept growing in power, their relationship kept getting worse and worse.
Seeing LinHua's pale face, the maid asked, "Are you alright, Miss LinHua?"
"Hmph, would you be alright if you were ? All these stupid rumors spreading around, just what are these people thinking?"
"It's normal, Miss. The higher you rise, the more people will gossip about your family."
"Rise? You don't know anything, JiaNu. Even with all the growth, if I cannot beco a golden core cultivator in a year, our family is finished!"
"A golden core cultivator? Isn't that stronger than our sect leader?"
LinHua sighed, "It seems you have so understanding of cultivation levels. Yes, it's all because of my parents, well, part of it is my fault too.
There are many reasons, but you don't need to know the details. Basically, our family has so conflict with a clan from another region, and their leader gave us ti before having a tournant between us. The winner survives; the loser dies."
"Does that clan have a golden core cultivator?"
