A short while later, Zhao Bingyan invited Hao Shu to go visit Jing Shen's library and meet Pei Zhuo who might have found something about the corpse of the young man who had recently attacked them. He said that he had found something that might surprise them as soon as he heard it.
"Hows it? Has elder Pei found anything?" Zhao Bingyan asked after she got to the place along with Hao Shu next to her.
While watching the piece of document paper, Pei Zhuo stroked his white beard and turned his head towards the two of them as soon as he heard Zhao Bingyan's voice coming from behind.
"Hm, um,... How can I explain it, huh? After I examined it well, this young man was the one who had died a year ago. He's controlled by someone far from here. You could say, this is a corpse doll tactic." It was clearly Pei Zhuo after he looked towards the two of them.
"What did elder Pei find in his body so you could deduce that he was a puppet?" Hao Shu asked after he heard the answer.
"After I examined him, there was a symbol hidden behind his back. The symbol could only be raised if one used Shen Qi's spell. After I saw it, the symbol had a shape like the head of a black wolf. If recalled, this symbol is very similar to the symbol used when the Yan dynasty occurred." It was clearly Pei Zhuo on the two people in front of him.
"If the person is from the Yan family, does that mean that Yan Fengying attacked him?" Said Hao Shu who immediately concluded.
"No! If it was true that Crown Prince Yan had done so, he probably would not have sent someone else to kill him. He's a person who never relies on others and always moves on his own." It was clearly Zhao Bingyan who denied the entire saying of Hao Shu.
"Then who did it? There's no way Shang Ren would do it." Hao Shu said back.
"Why not just ask the kid? Hadn't he previously been brought to Jiangyan city along with one other disciple?" Asked Pei Zhuo who broke the commotion.
Zhao Bingyan thought before saying, "Maybe it's true. I'll ask him soon." Said Zhao Bingyan who immediately turned around and walked towards her residence again.
Hao Shu who saw Zhao Bingyan returned towards his residence, only silently expressionless as he stared at her blankly. He thought, it was possible that Mu Chen Xiao would explain it to Zhao Bingyan because he was one of his relatives. However, Hao Shu was doubtful that Zhao Bingyan had not told the truth and kept their relationship a secret for a while.
A week ago, they had time to ask Mu Chen Xiao and Xing Ruo. However, the memories of the two of them seemed to be erased just like that and they did not clearly remember why they could be here before they finally met Ying Tian.
"So, can they answer that?" Hao Shu muttered who was paying attention.
Meanwhile, that was happening in Zhao Bingyan's residence. After the two were declared to be engaged, Ying Tian who heard him was furious and directly smashed into Mu Chen Xiao's brazen face. In the end, he returned with bruises that filled his face.
”Luckily no one sees me like this. Ouch,... It hurts so.” Inner Mu Chen Xiao while holding his cheek that looks blue.
Not long after he walked over, Mu Chen Xiao finally reached his own room and directly entered it while no one saw him like this.
”Haah,... Finally I was alone.” Mu Chen Xiao muttered as he instantly closed the door when it was already inside.
"Are you sure you're alone?" Said a young man who suddenly appeared next to him and was looking at him now.
”....”
"SATAN!"
"Ouch, man,... Duh, man,... What mistake did I make you do that?" The young man complained while holding his head after he was thrown and hit the floor hard.
Mu Chen Xiao was stunned after he heard the voice of this young man. He felt familiar with someone who kept saying free things and begged him to become his student.
"eeee? Aren't you Guan Long?" Mu Chen Xiao asked after he saw the face of the young man who was staring at him.
Hearing his name being mentioned by Mu Chen Xiao, made Guan Long feel happy and directly embrace his shoulder as a welcome greeting from him.
"Xiao Xiao's! Long time no see, yes!" Guan Long said as he was embracing Mu Chen Xiao's shoulder to make him look claustrophobic.
”Is he trying to kill me?!” inner Mu Chen Xiao as he tried to release Guan Long's right hand which continued to torment his neck.
Guan Long had disappeared for a week and reappeared in Mu Chen Xiao's room without notifying the Sect Patriarch or their Master Teacher. Ever since two people disappeared from the Sect, Guan Long left without anyone's knowledge and could not be found anywhere they searched. And because of that, it emerged that Guan Long was a spy from another group who tried to destroy them. However, as the two returned in a state of forgetting who had brought them, the conjecture became very doubtful. And the only clue left, was just the corpse of the young man they found a few days ago.
"Ouch! Getaway from me!" Said Mu Chen Xiao who immediately took off Guan Long's hand and stood facing him. "... Didn't you disappear for a week? Why did you suddenly appear here?" Mu Chen Xiao asked as soon as he was surprised to see the existence of Guan Long who was already before him.
"Hm, um,... How yes? You know for yourself right, the Quya mountains are filled with dark magic users?" Guan Long replied a moment later while staring at Mu Chen Xiao, "... There was a small problem there so, I went to calm them down. But, I forgot to pass it on to the patriarch of the Sect and your great Master."
”Inspicuous reasons!” inner Mu Chen Xiao noticed.
After he was silent for a while, Guan Long snorted softly and said, "Before I leave, there's something I want to give you." He said as he walked up to him and opened Mu Chen Xiao's forehead which was covered by his long hair.
"Eh? Heh?! You've turned, haven't you?!" Said Mu Chen Xiao loudly and directly moved away from him.
"He-he, man,... Comeoverhere. I have something interesting!" Guan Long said as he waved his hand accompanied by his friendly smile which was rarely seen by him.
”He thinks I'm easily affected?” inner Mu Chen Xiao was expressionless as he looked at her.
"Come to Xiao Xiao!" Guan Long said as he walked up to him.
"Hey! What do you want?!" Mu Chen Xiao asked loudly as he saw Guan Long so forcefully approaching him.
Guan Long smirked and replied, "Of course to remove Liu's fire seal that is troubling you." His words immediately ran towards Mu Chen Xiao as soon as he ended his sentence.
When he had gotten what he wanted even to the point of falling on the floor, Guan Long immediately placed his palm over Mu Chen Xiao's forehead until it covered both of his eyes before finally, someone came and opened the door.
"Guan Long! Stop that!"
