Chapter 365 [Memory]

"...What’s with the attitude of the Yang Family Member towards me?

Before I met you, no one cared about me. That Mr. Yang Sr., he never considered me a descendant of the Yang Family.

Before coming to Port City this time, I only visited him once, that was when I was a child.

Besides that, I haven’t seen him for over a decade, and he never thought to give me any attention."

As she spoke, Lu Sisi’s tone gradually revealed a sense of helplessness.

"My mother back then only wished to marry a wealthy man and used tricks to bind my father. There was no love between my father and mother, one liked money, the other liked youth and beauty.

I am the product of this relationship, born unlucky, and they just want to stay away from me.

As for the Yang Family, to me, it’s just a symbol, a symbol that’s been distant since childhood and one that avoids me.

That Mr. Yang Sr. is not any kind of elder to me, just someone who shut me out and ignored me for over ten years."

Lu Sisi sighed softly: "So, Chen Yan...you don’t need to do these things for me. I don’t want you to involve yourself in troublesome things, and I don’t want to be entangled in the complications with the Yang Family.

These people, these things, are best kept far away from us."

Chen Yan looked into Lu Sisi’s eyes and asked seriously: "Then, truly with these family members of yours, do you..."

Lu Sisi thought for a moment: "My father shows no concern for me, and he’s also a Yang Family descendant, naturally supported by the family, he doesn’t need me.

My mother, after all, gave birth to me, the grace of giving birth cannot be ignored. So if my mother faces difficulties, I do wish to help her a little. But that’s it.

Besides that, perhaps, I only have some affection for my younger brother now."

Speaking, Lu Sisi’s tone grew more serious: "I know the current attitude of the Yang Family is for a reason, perhaps they desire something from you...But Chen Yan, what I want to tell you is...

I owe nothing to the Yang Family, and you owe nothing to the Yang Family! I don’t want you to give anything to them for my sake.

If they have a request of you, then handle it as it should be."

The former owner of this mansion, that Elder Zhong, was also a Profound Cultivator, so his house is surely set up with something like a practice room.

At night, after carrying Lu Sisi to rest in the room, Chen Yan left the bedroom and quickly found this "practice room" in the house.

The room is not large, but the location is excellent, strictly calculated for position, placed in the most auspicious spot within the house.

The interior is arranged properly; in Chen Yan’s view, the settings to suppress feng shui and energy are all complete, each in its place.

Besides, on the shelf, there were some "Magical Artifacts" that Elder Zhong needed for his daily work.

Of course, they aren’t real cultivator magical artifacts, just work tools.

Compass, Peach Wood Sword, feng shui suppressors, incense burners, incense table, Magic Robe and crown, cinnabar talisman paper...

Several mats on the ground were arranged according to the Big Dipper constellation positions, with a copper-cast dragon-head tortoise lying on the incense table, a specially made incense burner, which once ignited, releases smoke slowly from the turtle’s mouth.

That Elder Zhong wasn’t a swindler, he genuinely had some cultivation — similar to Chu Keqing’s situation.

Only he strayed into the wrong path, coincidentally nurturing that old ghost.

Now, this person is already dead, and Chen Yan won’t pursue his offenses further. It’s said that debts die with the person.

But this mansion suits Chen Yan’s tastes quite well, being a place of cultivation, the arrangements in the courtyard are all quite methodical.

`

Once the practice room’s door is closed, external sounds are isolated, as the walls and doors are soundproofed.

Unhurriedly, Chen Yan lit a sandalwood incense stick and settled cross-legged on a mat.

He gave a gentle tap on the Storage Jade Pendant, and an ingot of Fire Copper flew out, landing in front of him.

A gray mist emerged, and Zhou Qingning’s figure slowly came into view, appearing before Chen Yan.

"Greetings, Immortal Official!"

Zhou Qingning gracefully bowed in salute.

Chen Yan squinted and examined Zhou Qingning. After the remnant soul had been nourished for two days by the Li Fire Qi from the Fire Copper, it appeared much more solid when summoned now.

Previously, Zhou Qingning had a human outline, but the semi-translucent appearance like a shadow seemed about to dissipate at any moment. Now it appeared much more distinct, clearly having recovered a lot of Primordial Qi under the nourishment of Li Fire, far better than the weak state seen two days ago.

Chen Yan contemplated briefly and said: "Tonight, I sensed your Divine Sense moving slightly within the Fire Copper, as if calling out to me. Is there something the matter?"

Zhou Qingning knelt before Chen Yan, speaking in a tone of complex emotion: "Reporting to the Immortal Official, there indeed is an issue. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare disturb the Immortal Official."

Chen Yan’s heart stirred, saying: "Your original remnant soul, the lamp base you previously resided in, although was also carved from Fire Copper Ore, the Li Fire was thin, only enough for maintenance.

Now under abundant Li Fire, nourishing the soul, and as the remnant soul gradually recovers, I imagine you must have recovered some memories and recalled certain things?"

Zhou Qingning’s expression shifted slightly, slowly saying: "I dare not hide from the Immortal Official, I indeed remembered some things, and they are related to this place!"
