C41 (1/2)
I waited outside while Xia Mingyuan set up the Ghost Boundaries Formation, while Su Ran held Shi An to accompany me. I originally wanted to stay in the ancestral hall, but Xia Mingyuan drove me out, leaving me with no choice but to be anxious outside.
”Don't worry, the Eight Trigrams Assimilation Formation is the most delicate. It has to be secluded in order to summon its own deity to investigate. Otherwise, it might accidentally hurt you, which is why he called you out.”
This is the first time I've heard of such a delicate magic formation. I felt that it was kind of funny, but when I heard Su Biao mention Feng Shen, I casually asked her, ”What is Feng Shen?” After I train in the future, will I also have a god of my own? ”
Zucchini teased Shi An as he said, ”How could that be? ”Feng Shen is the guardian god of the Xia family, only the Sacrificial Clan or their descendants can have him, you still can't be considered a disciple. Although Little Yuan accepted you as his disciple, you will never be able to inherit the teachings of the Priestess Family, unless he records you in his clan tree as a candidate for being the next Priestess.”
I nodded my head. So there was still this layer of relationship between them. However, I now had the Wutong Lovesick Formation and the Twin Pendant. I already had enough of those strange things, so there wasn't much of a hindrance.
”It should be about time. Little Yuan has not trained for long enough to become a God. If it was the Priest, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to wait this long.”
Su Huaisha's face was filled with pride when she mentioned Xia Zhi Ang. I couldn't help but smile as I felt that this woman who was sometimes mature and sometimes delicate was indeed a wonderful person.
As soon as Su Biao's voice fell, Xia Mingyuan came out of the ancestral hall with a face full of disappointment. I knew that Feng Shen probably didn't find anything.
”Feng Shen had investigated for a long time, and too many ghosts' auras were left behind. There were also some from the villagers of Fucun, so it was really impossible to find them.”
”It's fine, we can search for other clues. Let's see if we can find any tricks from the pillars of the ancestral hall.”
Xia Mingyuan knew this was the only way to deal with this matter, so he turned back to find Captain Long who was guarding outside, wanting to understand more about the pillar.
”Captain Long, have you found out about the pillar yet?”
Seeing that we were in such a hurry, Captain Long rubbed his hands in embarrassment, ”Mr. Xia, it's already the wee hours of the morning. It's not easy for us brothers to find the villagers and the station won't be able to start working until 8 tomorrow.”
Xia Mingyuan waved his hand to show that he understood. We looked at the moon in the sky and shook our heads helplessly.
”Then we will return to the Lin Clan first and come back tomorrow. Captain Long, sorry to trouble you. We will come back early tomorrow to wait for news.”
”Alright, alright, alright. I will urge them to go and investigate it tomorrow.”
When we returned home, we discovered that the lights in the house were on. We had obviously turned off the lights when we left, so this situation …
Xia Mingyuan and I looked at each other, both of us on guard against approaching the Lin Clan's main gate.
”Priest Xia, don't be nervous. Come on in, we're all friends.”
When I heard this voice, I suddenly stopped and turned around to look at Xia Mingyuan. He obviously recognized who it was, so he pulled me in directly and opened the door.
I thought that only Chu Weiran was in my house, but when the door opened, it was so packed that even Feng Tianyu was sitting in a chair in the hall.
”Little Yin, how are you doing?”
Seeing that I was following behind Xia Mingyuan, he roughly understood what had happened and looked at me worriedly.
I shook my head to show that I was all right, and looked at the people in the yard again. Feng Tian Yu and Chu Weiran appeared at the same time, and they actually didn't fight?
”Pluto has already found out about what happened. What's going on in the underworld?”
