Chapter 22 Twilight Town 15



Chapter 22 Twilight Town 15

"Stop, stop reading, Si Xiaxia. Stop reading."

A pang of guilt rose in Wen Li's heart. She could do everything in her life with a clear conscience, but when it came to Shen Yingsi, she would always owe him.

"Si Xiaxia, didn't you notice anything? His handwriting."

Si Xiaxia, puzzled, thought for a moment and said, "His courtesy name, that's right! Shen Yingsi shouldn't know his courtesy name yet! No, he hasn't even chosen one yet!"

Wen Li looked at Shen Yingsi and saw that he was leisurely sipping his tea.

"When and where did you choose this name? I've never heard of it before," Wen Li asked.

Although she already had the answer in her heart, she wanted to confirm it.

Shen Yingsi put down his tea, turned his head, and stared directly into Wen Li's eyes, saying, "In the twenty-fifth year of Yong'an, on the winter solstice, Danli Guigu..."

His gaze was unwavering, even carrying a hint of a smile.

"Host, he's been exposed! He's been reborn!"

After confirming the situation, Wen Li calmed down and said, "No, he's just throwing himself into it."

He was blatantly telling her that he had been reborn. And he was certain that he had been reborn as well.

In the previous life, none of the people who followed the Crown Prince south to Moon Half City were from the Xuanling Sect, nor was Wen Li. The one who came back then but hasn't come now is Liang Tian, ​​the head of the Liang family and Wen Mingzhu's cousin.

So from the beginning, he knew but pretended not to. And now he's revealing his hand—what does that mean?

"Shen Xianzhi, what else do you know? What do you want to do now?" Wen Li asked in quick succession, her hand almost crushing the teacup in her hand.

Shen Yingsi remained silent, his gaze still fixed on her, the smile on his lips gradually widening. Though it was a warm, sunny smile, Wen Li felt a chill run down her spine.

“Jiang Xunzhi, I understand everything you know, and what am I supposed to do? It’s not like I don’t need to do anything.”

"I am the reincarnation of a true god, of noble birth and exceptional talent. I only endured ten years of suffering to successfully transcend my tribulations and become this immortal god. Wen Li, do you think I need to do anything more?"

As soon as Shen Yingsi finished speaking, he got up and left, showing no sign of the weakness he had just displayed.

"But I am curious, what does Miss Wen intend to do?"

*

Staring at the tightly closed door, Wen Li felt a surge of resentment.

"Si Xiaxia, what's the male lead's 'darkening' level?"

Si Xiaxia said guiltily, "Ninety-two percent."

"It's gone up again, huh! Can't you just change this feature to let us hear the male lead's thoughts? What on earth is Shen Yingsi thinking?"

Si Xiaxia: "How could we possibly know what the protagonist is thinking? He was reborn but didn't seek revenge; why did he stay the same?"

"Why? Look at his fate in his previous life. He ascended to become a demon god. Does it matter to him whether he's a demon or a god? Who in the world will be his match then!"

After trying so hard for nothing, he still asked me what I wanted to do. I just want to gouge his eyes out right now!

"I don't want to do this anymore! I'm too lazy to serve you now. I'll find the clues myself. You can slowly heal Shen Yingsi."

Wen Li slammed her teacup down, then went back to her room and made a commotion as she closed the door. Shen Yingsi next door could definitely hear her.

"No, host, I can only rely on you now. This world can only rely on you now. This Ghost Valley seal will be broken sooner or later. When that happens, the world will be in chaos. Forget about exonerating the Jiang family. Everyone in the world, including you, will be gone."

Wen Li was well aware of this, but after persisting for so many years without seeing any hope, she developed a self-destructive mentality.

Seeing that Wen Li remained silent, Si Xiaxia had no choice but to unleash her ultimate weapon: "I'll give you a clue! But let's make it clear first that this is an advance payment from you."

Upon hearing this, Wen Li immediately perked up and nodded perfunctorily. She didn't care what Shen Yingsi was thinking; as long as she could get the clues, that was all that mattered.

"Qingshan's original name was Jiang Shanyuan. He was an adopted son of the Jiang family and lived in the Jiang family for a full ten years."

Jiang Shanyuan! Why had she never heard her mother mention him? She had three uncles, but none of them were named Jiang Shanyuan. Besides, why hadn't he come looking for them all these years?

If she could beat him, she would tie Jiang Qingshan up right now and interrogate him properly.

Although there were many questions, Wen Li felt relieved as soon as she had a clue. After all, she finally had a direction.

Jiang Qingshan, Jiang Shanyuan, right? You didn't even recognize me when you saw me. I guess you're not a good person either.

Seeing that her host appeared to be behaving obediently and quietly, Si Xiaxia knew that she must be thinking of some wicked idea and had neglected the task.

The protagonist has already been reborn and awakened, so she's not in a hurry. And since she herself is a system without a physical body, it seems she'll have to discuss it with the administrator.

After receiving the clue, Wen Li couldn't sit still at all and had already made up her investigation plan for today in her mind.

While everyone was busy, Wen Li tiptoed onto the roof. Her first target was the old man's study and bedroom.

Unfortunately, these two places have quite a few maids and guards.

However, there are only a few demon hunters in Mushan Town now, and besides, she is considered one of the top demon hunters in the world. Dodging a few mortals is a piece of cake for her.

She used an illusion spell, and the maids and servants could no longer see her, so she swaggered in.

Qingshan always appears detached and indifferent to worldly desires, but his bedroom and study are decorated in a lavish and luxurious style.

The bed was made of the finest wood, and the quilt was made of silk. There were ten luminous pearls in this room alone. Wen Li touched the vase in the room again, and really wanted to steal it. And this golden bowl on the bedside table would be perfect as a dog bowl for her second master.

"Si Xiaxia, do you think all this money of his comes from our Jiang family?"

Si Xiaxia: "I don't know."

"It better not be, otherwise I'll skin him alive."

However, Wen Li searched high and low for a long time but still couldn't find anything related to the Jiang family. The same was true for the study.

That's really strange. It's so clean?

Wen Li plopped down in a huff on the wooden chair next to the desk, tilting her head to look out the window at the backyard. There wasn't much of a person in the backyard. But why were there windows on both sides?

Wen Li jumped out of the backyard window. The study was quite far from his room and rather secluded.

Is he spying on something?

A bad feeling crept into Wen Li's heart. She jumped out of the window and looked around the small backyard.

There was a lot of firewood piled up in the backyard, but Wen Li saw several woodsheds in front, all of which were full.

Wen Li started to pry open the firewood and found a thin red thread, which looked like it had been snagged from her clothes.

Wen Li used her spiritual power to move all the firewood away, revealing that there were only ordinary floor tiles underneath the pile of firewood.

Wen Li used her spiritual power to attack, and the originally normal floor tiles showed signs of being sealed.

He definitely has a problem!

However, Wen Li was somewhat troubled by this seal.

"Si Xiaxia? System? Are you there?"

After calling her for a while without getting a response, Wen Li knew that Si Xiaxia was unreliable. She'd probably gone to find her system friends again.

Qingshan has lived in the Jiang family for decades since childhood, so she must have learned the Jiang family's sword techniques. Those sealing formations are just a few basic ones, aren't they? It's quite a coincidence that, besides Qingshan, she's the only one in the Jiang family who knows the sword techniques.

Wen Li roused herself and tried each incantation one by one. Just when she was about to give up hope, the floor disappeared, and a downward staircase appeared on the ground.
