Chapter 152

"I"

"You almost got my master killed. Did you think you could just get away with this?" the assistant asked coldly with a reproachful glare.

Elder Xu also looked at Wu Yong with an icy gaze and said, "I will settle this score with you slowly."

Cold sweat broke out all over Wu Yong, pouring down profusely.

Seeing that there was nothing more for him to do, Ye Fengyun went to look for Tang Shihan.

Before leaving, Wu Yong followed behind Ye Fengyun like a child who had done something wrong, trembling all over, looking as though he had much to say but didn't dare.

"What are you doing?" Ye Fengyun looked at him with a trace of disgust.

It wasn't because of his appearance, but rather the strong stench of urine emanating from him.

"Mr. Ye, exactly what sacred personage are you?" Wu Yong asked cautiously, no longer daring to show the slightest bit of insolence toward Ye Fengyun.

Ye Fengyun waved his hand impatiently and said, "Go ask your teacher. He knows what kind of personage I am."

"Ah?"

Wu Yong was momentarily stunned.

Ye Fengyun continued, "I'm not boasting, but even your teacher has to show me a great deal of respect. As for you, you still need a lot more practice."

With that, regardless of Wu Yong's reaction, Ye Fengyun took Tang Shihan and left.

Wu Yong stood alone in the same spot, his bladder failing him once again.

Walking to the entrance, Steward Lin stepped forward with a smile.

"Miss Tang, it's a rare occasion to visit the Tang family estate. I wish to pay my respects to the Matriarch. Would you mind showing me the way?"

Steward Lin was exceedingly polite, smiling warmly at Tang Shihan.

Tang Shihan looked up. The moment their eyes met, a flash of purple light flickered deep within Steward Lin's eyes.

Tang Shihan's body shuddered slightly, and the exact same purple light flashed across her pupils.

"Alright."

Tang Shihan agreed.

Ye Fengyun frowned, casting a hostile glance at Steward Lin.

Steward Lin turned to look at Ye Fengyun and smiled, "Is that alright, Mr. Ye?"

A trace of purple light flashed across the depths of his eyes.

Ye Fengyun smiled and said, "Of course, be my guest."

Steward Lin frowned inwardly, thinking to himself: Did he fall under the spell or not?

Without waiting for Steward Lin to react, Ye Fengyun and Tang Shihan got into the car, and Steward Lin hurriedly followed after them.

Upon arriving at the Tang residence, Steward Lin was received by the Matriarch.

Although the two of them had never met before, they conversed as joyfully as old friends who hadn't seen each other in years.

Of course, these were all superficial appearances; the true reality was clearly visible through Ye Fengyun's eyes.

***

In Ye Fengyun's field of vision, there was a shadow standing right behind the Matriarch, manipulating her limbs and facial expressions.

Yet, Ye Fengyun chose not to expose it. He actually wanted to see what this Steward Lin was truly up to.

Steward Lin was treated by the Tang family as a familiar guest. As twilight descended, the lights of the Tang estate went out, and everyone fell into a deep slumber as if by mutual agreement.

Taking advantage of the night, Steward Lin rose from his seat and headed toward the backyard of the Tang residence.

Ye Fengyun silently followed him after he left, murmuring under his breath, "The Dream Illusion Curse. So this fellow is a cultivator."

He stealthily tailed Steward Lin and saw him arrive at the backyard, his body convulsing a few times.

Beneath the moonlight, Ye Fengyun clearly saw Steward Lin's face changing shape, transforming into none other than Yunlanzong.

Ye Fengyun was struck with utter shock.

Yunlanzong?

Wasn't he dead?

Then who was the one who died previously?

Seeing Steward Lin transform into Yunlanzong, the doubts in Ye Fengyun's mind were instantly resolved.

No wonder Yunlanzong had met his end so readily back then; his death had all the hallmarks of a carefully staged arrangement.
