Chapter 228 - 215: The Path Shan’t Go Astray But the Mandates Are All the Same
However, Feng Xin wasn't dumbfounded for too long before he had an answer. He was just about to respond but Jian Lan only sneered, "Forget about it, you don't need to say anything. You're someone else's prisoner right now, whether if you dare to claim your son would all be empty words, I won't believe anything you say. Don't say anymore. Even if you're willing, I might not be!"
That fetus spirit was curled in her arms, slithering its tongue at Feng Xin, snickering in a grown up voice. Jian Lan spanked it forcefully with a slap on its behind, scolding, "What faces are you making still? I told you not to run off, you're driving me mad!"
That ugly little face of the fetus spirit shrivelled a bit and finally stayed still. The mother and child hurried out of the Palace of Nan Yang while Feng Xin yelled from behind, "JIAN LAN! JIAN LAN!" No response. In the end, there was only him left once again within the Palace of Nan Yang, and Feng Xin slumped, falling back into his seat, glaring at that giant white radish with rows of crooked teeth marks that was left behind. He glared for a good moment, his right hand supporting his head up, then he laid flat on the ground, even the energy to curse had left him.
Above the Palace of Nan Yang, Xie Lian also sighed.
Just then, Hua Cheng suddenly spoke up, "Gege, do you still remember that night at Mount Yu Jun, that fetus spirit had also appeared?"
Xie Lian knew he was purposely changing the subject, plus that business with the fetus spirit appearing at Mount Yu Jun was also questionable, so Xie Lian was cooperative and forced himself to lighten up, "I remember. At the time, when I was riding the marriage sedan, it used a nursery rhyme to give me hints on how to find the Ghost Bride, which was Xuan Ji. It also didn't let anyone else hear, only to me specifically, I wonder why."
"Probably by Jun Wu's direction." Hua Cheng said.
"Then the answer to the riddle would be Jun Wu's objective." Xie Lian said, "And the reason as to why it's become a fierce spirit under Jun Wu's command, I'm afraid those are all questions for Guoshi."
"Then let's go ask." Hua Cheng said, "I've got good news for gege, the wraith butterflies have already found where the Guoshi is held."
Xie Lian's spirit was immediately raised, "Where?"
The Palace of Ling Wen.
