However, although he didn’t mean it, Sheng Lingfeng pondered over it.
Sheng Lingfeng suddenly turned around and stared at Sheng Wuque. His gaze kept flickering, and he looked a little paranoid.
Sheng Wuque was frightened by Sheng Lingfeng’s appearance. “Mentor, what’s wrong?” Sheng Wuque felt flustered. “Mentor, don’t look at me like that. I can’t bear it.”
Sheng Lingfeng suddenly said, “I have to go to the Yin family!”
“Huh?” Although he didn’t understand why his mentor suddenly changed the topic, Sheng Wuque didn’t ask further. He only said obsequiously, “Mentor, you’re taking the car, right? I’ll drive for you.”
“Alright, you’re very free anyway.”
“Heh.” Sheng Wuque’s parents were old, so their control over him was weak. He had been slacking off in his cultivation recently and spent all his time in his embroidery shop. He had almost forgotten his identity as a Beast Tamer. Hearing his mentor’s words, Sheng Wuque wasn’t angry. He said, “Mentor, everyone has their own beliefs. You guys love cultivation, and I love embroidery. It’s not contradictory.”
Although Sheng Lingfeng snubbed this child for being a slacker, he loved this child very much.
He knew that Sheng Wuque wasn’t really a slacker. It was just that his ambition wasn’t in cultivation.
Sheng Wuque drove Sheng Lingfeng to the Yin Clan’s Eight Towers Mountain. After parking the car, Sheng Lingfeng went straight to look for Ji Linyuan. Sheng Wuque strolled around the Yin Clan, playing with the cats and dogs and chatting with the ladies.
When Ji Linyuan heard that Sheng Lingfeng was here, he was somewhat shocked. He hurriedly came to the entrance of the office building and personally welcomed Sheng Lingfeng. Seeing Sheng Lingfeng striding over from afar, Ji Linyuan hurriedly asked respectfully, “Patriarch Sheng, did something happen?”
Something big must have happened for a busy person like Sheng Lingfeng to suddenly come uninvited.
Sheng Lingfeng didn’t say anything. He pulled Ji Linyuan’s arm and walked into his office. Then, he set up a protective shield outside the office and said in a low voice, “Mr. Ji Linyuan, think about the situation on the day Xuanyuan Shen passed away. Let’s go through it again.”
Ji Linyuan was stunned and subconsciously asked, “Why? Could it be that Xuanyuan Shen’s death has special circumstances?”
Sheng Lingfeng frowned and said, “Madam Xuanyuan said that Xuanyuan Shen wanted to rape her back then. As the two of them fought, the creator suddenly emerged from Xuanyuan Shen’s body and crushed his beast heart. It sucked away Xuanyuan Shen’s spiritual power and escaped.”
Ji Linyuan nodded. “That’s right. Madam Xuanyuan said so.”
Sheng Lingfeng continued, “If you were the creator, your soul would be damaged and you would urgently need spiritual power to nourish it. For this, you didn’t hesitate to kill Xuanyuan Shen, who had been parasitized by you for a long time, and absorb all his spiritual power. At this time, when you discover that there is a Beast Tamer with the cultivation of a Supreme Master standing beside you, will you absorb her spiritual power as well, or will you let her go because her spiritual power is too weak?”
Ji Linyuan thought about it seriously and said, “If it were me, I would choose to absorb Madam Xuanyuan’s spiritual power as well. Although a Supreme Master’s spiritual power is relatively weak, a mosquito’s leg is still a leg. In a situation where the Heavenly Dao soul power is severely lacking, if I can eat more, how can I bear to let Madam Xuanyuan leave?”
“That’s right! the creator isn’t a benevolent person. Then have you ever thought about why he, who kills without batting an eye, let Madam Xuanyuan off?” Sheng Lingfeng sneered. “It can’t be that he values women, right?”
The more Ji Linyuan listened, the more serious his expression became. “Patriarch Sheng, what are you suspecting?”
Sheng Lingfeng continued, “Do you still remember what Xuanyuan Shen said to Madam Xuanyuan before he died?”
Ji Linyuan pondered over it carefully again.
After thinking for a while, he said hesitantly, “He told Madam Xuanyuan not to hurt his children.”
“That’s right!” Sheng Lingfeng stared at Ji Linyuan with a burning gaze and said anxiously, “When I heard this back then, I thought that Xuanyuan Shen was worried about his second and youngest sons and was afraid that Madam Xuanyuan would be harsh on his children and other women after he died.”
Ji Linyuan was stunned. “Isn’t that so?”
“Mr. Ji Linyuan, I have a crazy guess. Listen to it first before telling me if my guess is reasonable.”
Ji Linyuan hurriedly nodded and said, “Patriarch Sheng, please speak.”
“After Xuanyuan Shen died, Madam Xuanyuan’s personality suddenly changed drastically. In the past, she was promiscuous, but she suddenly lost all interest in men. She, who had never asked about the Xuanyuan Clan’s affairs, took over the Xuanyuan Clan’s Patriarch’s duties more than half a month ago. Now, she has even snatched away the position of the Liuli Clan’s Patriarch and started a marriage policy. I suspect…”
