Surprise! The boss of the last days, reborn before the engagement

Hu Zilong also had a look of grief on his face, and he slowly said, "Butler, we don't want to believe it either, but it's true. Go and inform your wife and the other masters in the mansion first! We'll be waiting in the flower hall."

The butler held back his tears, nodded, turned around and hurriedly ran towards the main courtyard, his heart filled with endless grief and panic.

In the main courtyard, Madam Liu Shiyun was sitting upright on an exquisite embroidered couch, gently waving a round fan with a landscape pattern painted on it, her eyes revealing a hint of longing.

She seemed to sense something and looked out the door, just in time to see the butler stumbling in.

Housekeeper: "Madam! It's bad! Vice President Jiang and Vice President Hu of Zi Yan College are here. They said...the master has passed away due to a relapse of an old illness!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Shiyun dropped the fan in her hand suddenly with a crisp sound. Her face instantly turned as pale as paper, and her eyes were full of disbelief and grief.

She stood up tremblingly, clutching her clothes tightly with both hands, as if trying to stabilize her shaky body.

Liu Shiyun's face was filled with disbelief, and he asked with trembling lips, "How...how is this possible? We are all cultivators, and we should have long lifespans. How could we die because of a mere old illness...how could the master...how could he just die like this?"

The housekeeper choked up and replied, "Madam, please don't worry. They are still waiting in the hall. Do you want to meet them and ask them clearly?"

Liu Shiyun took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She knew that no matter how sad she was, she had to be strong for the sake of the master and the family.

Liu Shiyun's face was covered with tears. She said word by word, "Of course I have to see him. I must find out what is going on. We can't let the master go without knowing the truth. Come with me."

As he spoke, Liu Shiyun took heavy steps and walked towards the flower hall. The housekeeper followed closely behind him, silently praying for the master in his heart, hoping that his soul in heaven could rest in peace.

In the flower hall, Jiang Mingchen and Hu Zilong were sitting opposite each other in silence, and the atmosphere seemed particularly depressing.

Seeing Liu Shiyun and the housekeeper come in, the two of them hurriedly stood up to greet them, with a bit of apology and sympathy on their faces.

"Mrs. He, please accept my condolences. We know that this news is too sudden for you, but please believe that we have done our best."

Hu Zilong also stepped forward and added, "Yes, Madam He. The dean lived an upright life and made great contributions to the college. His death is not only a great loss to our college, but also a sorrow to the entire continent."

Liu Shiyun held back her tears and looked at the two of them firmly. She knew that now was not the time to cry, she needed to know the truth and seek justice for the master.

While wiping away tears, Liu Shiyun asked, "Thank you for your concern, both vice presidents. I just want to know how the old master's old illness relapsed? With his cultivation, how could he be defeated by the old illness so easily?"

Jiang Mingchen sighed and slowly told the story of what happened.

"I had something to ask the dean to handle this afternoon, so I went straight to the dean's office. But after I knocked on the door and shouted for a long time, the dean did not respond.

I was worried that something might have happened to the dean, so I pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as I entered, I saw the dean lying on the ground.

I called out to him...but the dean didn't respond at all. My first reaction was to run out of the door and shout for help."
