Splendid Twins

In Zangfeng Garden, Lu Yuan handed the tourmaline pendant to Si Yao, with a barely perceptible solemnity in his voice:

"Take a closer look and see if there is anything wrong..."

"This item came from Gou Huan. This person's evil magic is unfathomable. I am worried that he has hidden a mystery in it that ordinary people cannot detect. What's more, he gave this item to Xiao Chen."

When Si Yao heard this, a hint of caution gathered between his brows.

Gou Huan's magic skills were truly hard to guard against, so when he took the pendant, his hands unconsciously clenched together.

The tourmaline pendant has a warm luster under the light, a delicate texture, and a cool touch, but it also implies an indescribable complexity.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to infuse her spiritual energy to explore the secrets that might be hidden there.

However, at this moment, a faint but clear wave came out from the pendant, which resonated subtly with her spiritual energy...

Si Yao suddenly opened her eyes, with an expression of disbelief and surprise flashing in her eyes!

Deep in her consciousness, an unprecedented wave suddenly surged up, as if an invisible force was tearing the shackles of space apart, and wisps of black mist tightly surrounded her...

Then, a shocking scene slowly unfolded before her eyes——

The dragon vein that was originally trapped deep in the space system suddenly broke free from all restraints and appeared in the air without any warning in an irresistible posture!

It coiled and twisted, surrounded by dazzling light, like a sacred dragon from ancient times, huge and majestic, every scale shining with a heart-pounding brilliance, releasing an ancient and powerful aura, instantly filling the entire Zangfeng Garden!

"This..." Si Yao opened her red lips slightly, with shock in her voice that was hard to conceal.

"Yaoyao..." Lu Yuan's voice sounded from the side, his eyes filled with unprecedented shock!

Si Yao quickly adjusted her mood and turned her gaze towards Lu Yuan. Seeing that he was surprised but his expression remained firm, she felt relieved.

Then, she took a deep breath and tried to use her spiritual energy to communicate with the dragon vein that suddenly appeared.

"Little earthworm?"

"I can see the world thanks to the guidance of you, an alien ghost!"

The voice of the dragon vein sounded in Si Yao's heart, low and majestic, with an unquestionable power.

Si Yao was slightly moved when she heard this, but she also reminded him:

"Now that you have been born, do you have a safe place to go? The appearance of a divine dragon in the world is not ordinary. I am afraid it violates the will of heaven and may bring punishment from heaven."

The dragon vein twisted in the air, and its aura became even more majestic, as if the entire world was under its control.

It sneezed loudly, and the spiritual energy it exhaled turned into a powerful storm, heading straight for Si Yao, forcing her to take a few steps back to avoid its edge!

Seeing this, Lu Yuan moved instantly, and stood in front of Si Yao as agilely as a cheetah, protecting her tightly behind him.

Her eyes became unusually sharp, as if they could penetrate all illusions, staring directly at the dragon vein that contained endless pressure. Even if she couldn't defeat it, she would never let it hurt her!

Si Yao's eyes were cold, and as she looked over, she gritted her teeth and said, "Don't repay kindness with enmity!"

The dragon vein looked proud and confident, and it responded:

"I was born in accordance with the will of heaven and earth, so I am naturally not afraid of any disobedience. However, my appearance in this world is also the will of heaven. I will enter a period of recuperation and possess this pendant to ensure good weather and good harvests in Nanliang. As long as the king does not lose his virtuous governance, I will protect the peace of this place!"

After saying this, the dragon vein rumbled, and its huge body began to shrink gradually, eventually turning into a ball of thick white mist, which slowly attached to the originally ordinary tourmaline pendant...

With the integration of the dragon vein, the pendant instantly glowed with dazzling light. The whole body became crystal clear, and mysterious spiritual power fluctuations flowed through it. It had obviously become a priceless treasure!

Si Yao stared at the pendant, her brows gradually furrowed, and the emotions surging in her heart were complicated and difficult to describe...

All of this seemed to be carefully planned. Gou Huan used her space and spiritual energy. After the dragon vein grew stronger, she used magic to break the spatial confinement, allowing the dragon vein to appear in the world and cleverly attach itself to the pendant!

I almost laughed out of anger, so, she is just a tool!

At this moment, a steady voice sounded from behind:

"Amitabha, good, good, it seems that I am a step late for this trip."

Master Chan Liao suddenly appeared, with a bit of Zen in his mind, and slowly walked into Zangfeng Garden.

Upon hearing this, Si Yao paused abruptly, with a cold light flashing in her eyes. It was obvious that she was displeased and wary of the sudden visit of this uninvited guest.

When did her Zangfeng Garden become so easily accessible?

Seeing this, Lu Yuan's eyelids moved slightly, and he nodded slightly to Master Canliao: "Master Canliao."

Master Canliao nodded slightly in response to Lu Yuan's greeting, and then cast his gaze towards Si Yao, with compassion and deepness, carefully examining her brows...

After a while, he sighed softly and said with emotion:

"You are indeed a kind-hearted person. You are a soul that has traveled through thousands of years. Not only have you not lost your original heart, but you also have great ambitions. I believe that you will bring happiness to the people of this world."

Upon hearing this, Si Yao couldn't help but frown, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

How come everyone knows that she is a wandering ghost?

"Master, what do you mean by this? When did I become a ghost that traveled through time?"

Upon seeing this, Master Chan Liao smiled slightly, and that smile contained too many indescribable meanings.

His eyes moved gently between Lu Yuan and Si Yao, and finally fixed on Lu Yuan, and said meaningfully:

"I have done my best to complete the tasks entrusted by the Regent. Although he has passed away, I will do my best to realize his wishes."

Lu Yuan's expression changed slightly when he heard this: "What unfulfilled wish does he have?"

Master Canliao's gaze became gentle and profound:

"He didn't want to rest in the imperial mausoleum after his death and suffer the cold and loneliness. Therefore, I decided to carry his last wish across thousands of mountains and rivers to dispel the obsession and unwillingness that he couldn't let go of during his lifetime..."

After he finished speaking, he gently patted the ancient gourd on his waist. For a moment, the gourd moved slightly without wind, as if responding to something.

Afterwards, Master Can Liao turned his gaze to the pendant in Si Yao's hand. The pendant was even more dazzling at this moment, and its spiritual power was constantly fluctuating.

He said in a calm and solemn tone: "This item is a treasure that gathers the essence of heaven and earth. I am afraid it will attract countless covetousness and disputes. Therefore, I hope that the young lady can keep it properly and not show it to others easily unless it is absolutely necessary!"

Si Yao's eyes flickered when she heard that, and then she opened her red lips, chanted a spell, and lightly pinched with her fingertips. Several slender golden talismans twirled and jumped in her hands like living things, and finally turned into a stream of light, and sank into the pendant accurately.

As the talisman was integrated, the light on the pendant suddenly dimmed and became dim, like an ordinary piece of jade, no longer as dazzling and mysterious as before.
