Are all the love-brained villains my apprentices?

Yayin’s thoughts drifted away from the past.

His fingertips stroked the surface of the jade token, where the blood had long since dried.

The other hand unconsciously touched his disguised eyes.

When he saw the pattern on the jade pendant today, he recognized it.

That's why he asked in an unruly manner.

Even when Lin Wenyu did not answer his question directly.

Yayin even doubted Lin Wenyu for a moment.

But after he calmed down, Yayin overturned his idea.

The reason is very simple, if the mastermind behind this is really Lin Wenyu.

So with Lin Wenyu's strength, no matter if he wanted to get something from him or something else.

There is no need to have such a master-disciple relationship.

Just get started.

After calming down, Yayin was very clear about this.

After all, in the world of cultivating immortals, the difference in strength can make up for all conspiracies and tricks.

--------

When Du Sheng drank the sixth glass of water.

Lin Wenyu finally pieced together the fragmentary clues in her mind.

Although Lin Wenyu has not yet figured out the purpose of taking souls.

But just from the scale of the formation in the stall owner's yard, Lin Wenyu knew that was probably where the group of people gathered.

I think there are many minions like the stall owner.

We still have to keep an eye on that opening first.

Thinking of this, Lin Wenyu raised her eyes and looked at Du Sheng in front of her.

A strangely shaped white stone appeared in his hand.

"This is?"

“I made some changes to the formation at the foot of the mountain before I left.

The next time someone activates that formation, this stone will react."

When Du Sheng heard Lin Wenyu say this, his eyes flashed slightly.

"Master Junior, do you want to use this formation to draw out the forces hidden under the mountain?"

"Yeah." Lin Wenyu nodded and threw the white stone in her hand to Du Sheng.

"Just let the people in the dungeon keep an eye on this."

"Okay. I'll have the people in the dungeon keep an eye on it and report any abnormalities immediately."

Du Sheng caught the white stone and had no objection to it.

After putting the white stones in order, Du Sheng hesitated for a moment and still mentioned the Xu family.

"Uncle Junior Master...looking at Yayin's reaction, do you think this matter has anything to do with the Xu family?"

Du Sheng raised his glass and drank his seventh cup of tea, stroking the wall of the cup with his fingertips.

The steam rising from the teacup concealed the emotions in Du Sheng's eyes.

"I think it's very related. I haven't seen that kid react so strongly in a long time."

There was no need for Lin Wenyu to hide this.

She recalled Yayin's unusual reaction in her mind.

The last time she saw Yayin's emotions fluctuate so drastically was when a group of children insulted the old grandfather who took him in.

Du Sheng took a sip of tea and pondered for a moment.

“Then I will have the dungeon troops split into two groups, one to watch out for the next fluctuation of the formation, and the other to secretly investigate what happened to the Xu family.

As for Yayin, they should know something that we don't know.

For this, I will have to trouble Junior Master to ask indirectly."

Du Sheng paused, thinking of Yayin's unusual reaction just now.

He paused, sighed and added.

“Forget it, let’s not be too hasty about Crow Hidden’s side.

Let’s focus on the formation first.”

In Du Sheng's memory, Yayin was a person who did not show his emotions very much.

Even when Yayin had just joined the sect.

Face the provocation of those who are dissatisfied.

Yayin was able to continue to get along peacefully with those people after proving himself with his strength.

But Yayin’s reaction just now was extraordinary.

It is obvious that although Yayin entered Xuanling Sect, he did not show any intention of investigating the extermination of the Xu family.

But in fact, Yayin still cares about this matter very much.

Although the situation of Xuanling Sect is not optimistic.

There are spies inside and secret forces outside.

But a great Xuanling Sect would not resort to the method of investigating by exposing a child's scars.

When Lin Wenyu heard Du Sheng say this, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

She hadn't really thought much about what Watari said.

For a long time, in Du Sheng's heart, collective interests have often outweighed personal interests.

Even if that person is himself, he will choose the collective interest.

Although I still have to ask Yayin this time.

But Du Sheng really considered this matter from Yayin's perspective.

Lin Wenyu's mouth curled up.

"it is good."

Think of the information you have in your hands.

Lin Wenyu also gave Du Sheng a subtle reminder.

"I think that perhaps we can connect what happened in the past two years."

As to why it is not stated clearly.

Lin Wenyu had asked Xiaoyi about this matter when they were binding.

But Xiaoyi’s answer at that time was no.

Because revealing the opportunity of heaven will lead to backlash from the way of heaven.

Lin Wenyu was chosen by the system, and her identity in Tiandao is a tasker of the Space-Time Administration.

Therefore, the backlash of heaven will not affect Lin Wenyu.

But if you tell these things to other people.

These people do not have the status of taskers, and the backlash from heaven is enough to take their lives.

This is also the reason why Lin Wenyu was unable to inform Du Sheng and others in advance about many things and had to do it herself.

When Du Sheng heard Lin Wenyu say this, his already frowned brows furrowed even tighter.

It’s not that I doubt the truthfulness of Lin Wenyu’s words.

He knew his junior uncle quite well.

If she wasn't absolutely sure, Lin Wenyu wouldn't have mentioned it to him.

He was just thinking, if what Lin Wenyu said was true.

Then perhaps the extermination of the Xu family was the beginning of all these conspiracies.

Thinking of the Xu family, Du Sheng's originally frowned brows relaxed a little.

Instead, there is a feeling of regret.

At that time, because of the possibility that it might affect the Xuanling Sect, he was hesitant and did not investigate.

Now this effect is finally backfiring on him.

Du Sheng couldn't help but think, what would have happened if he had taken action back then.

Can we completely curb the situation before it develops?

He doesn't need to feel guilty towards Yayin for this.

But if is just if.

Having made up his mind, Du Sheng stood up.

“Then Junior Master, I will go to the dungeon to make some arrangements first.

I'll trouble you with Yayin's affairs."

"it is good."

Lin Wenyu did not intend to mention the affairs of the Xu family in front of Yayin.

After all, she has the life experience of Yayin recorded by the Space-Time Administration.

She could just look for clues from there.

What she is worried about now is something else.

How to reasonably explain the jade pendant matter to Yayin.

She was now afraid that after Yayin knew the truth, he would act on impulse and seek revenge.

Then he completely turned evil and embarked on the road of no return in the original plot.

Lin Wenyu held her forehead with her hand because of a headache.

Alas, the road to educating children is long and arduous...
