Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now! Chapter 1240 - 369: [Ruined Future?] (Part 3)

However, Lord Jiang Yu never directly responded to these rumors. Occasionally, someone, out of curiosity after a drink, would ask him about the situation inside the World Wall, but Lord Jiang Yu would not speak on it.

At this point, You Su Yi added, "But his refusal to speak is not surprising. The rules of the Domain Realm prohibit discussing the conditions inside the World Wall.

Several families have been guarding the World Wall for generations. The family’s younger members train and serve as guards within the World Wall, yet they all remain tight-lipped about its conditions.

This is because the World Wall is the gateway from the Domain Realm to the outside world, and movement in and out of the Domain Realm is strictly prohibited.

If everyone knew about the conditions inside the World Wall, and the information spread, wouldn’t it make it easier for people to escape? That’s why he doesn’t speak, and no one finds it strange."

Chen Yan quietly exhaled.

Then You Su Yi mused about Jiang Yu’s circumstances, but it was either uncertain rumors or mundane daily behaviors that seemed of little value and did not raise suspicion. For the time being, Chen Yan couldn’t find any valuable clues, so he just took note of it.

After listening, he thanked You Su Yi, who didn’t ask further questions—old foxes are cautious by nature. Even though Chen Yan suddenly asked about these things, she simply answered without inquiring why he asked.

Nevertheless, Chen Yan wasn’t worried that You Su Yi would leak anything, as she had left the Domain Realm and had no contact with anyone inside.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan sat silently for a long time, pondering various thoughts.

Only within the Fire Copper, Zhou Qingning’s residual soul was still in slumber. Evidently, this spiritual inhabitation took a great toll on her. Although she wasn’t injured this time, it probably triggered the weakness of her original soul. During this coma, her residual soul accelerated the absorption of Li Fire Qi to heal itself.

Perhaps...

When she wakes again, her residual soul might have been further restored, and she might remember more things by then.

In the following days, Chen Yan wasn’t in a hurry to leave Port City. Since he was already reunited with Lu Sisi, he wasn’t in a rush to return to Jinling Prefecture.

What would he do back there? At home, there was still the "Saintess Ghost" version of Lu Sisi staying in the villa.

Going back, being observed by that presence in the shadows—how would that be any fun?

So Chen Yan decided to stay in Port City with Lu Sisi, enjoying leisure time. Every day they would go to see the sea, stroll through the streets, eat, and shop.

They even borrowed a yacht from the Liu Family and took it out to sea with Lu Sisi for two days.

It wasn’t until the tenth day that Chen Yan prepared to depart for Jinling Prefecture with Lu Sisi and Gui Geng.

However, before leaving, Liu Zhaoming sent over a gift.

A property registration document transferring the house left by Elder Zhong to Lu Sisi’s name. All payments had been completed, all debts cleared, and all procedures were finalized.

From the moment she received this document, Lu Sisi became a small tycoon owning a property worth tens of millions in Port City.

And as they set out for Jinling Prefecture, they unexpectedly gained an uninvited companion.

The Liu family’s young lady, "Ah Ruo," showed up at the door with a suitcase in tow.

"My family has business on the Mainland, in Jinling Prefecture, and Hu City. This time, my brother asked me to go to Jinling Prefecture to handle some business affairs, so I happened to travel with you. I hope Mr. Chen doesn’t mind?

I know I may have offended you earlier, but Mr. Chen is magnanimous. Besides, Miss Lu and I hit it off quite well. I hope to trouble Miss Lu to show me around Jinling Prefecture."

Sure enough, the Liu Family reaching out wasn’t a surprise to Chen Yan, but he didn’t expect them to send this Miss Ah Ruo.

Fortunately, Miss Ah Ruo’s appearance wasn’t particularly outstanding—in terms of looks, she was only above average, with a hint of cosmetic alterations. Additionally, she was a few years older than him, probably around twenty-seven or twenty-eight.

So, it shouldn’t be that the Liu Family was trying to use a beauty trap on him.

Miss Ah Ruo didn’t come alone; she had two attendants, a man and a woman, both looking the part of business elites. One of them was even from the Mainland, though a graduate of Port City University.

When returning to Jinling Prefecture, they didn’t take a commercial flight but rather a Liu Family private jet.

Along the way, Miss Ah Ruo’s attitude toward Chen Yan was remarkably different. Her words, though flattering, were appropriate, with a humble and proper demeanor, lacking any of the proud heiress aura from their first meeting.

She even proactively asked for Chen Yan’s guidance, respectfully inquiring about her potential in cultivation or whether there was any chance to take on a master.

However, though her words sought favor, they didn’t cross boundaries or convey any hint of romantic interest.

Upon Chen Yan’s tactful refusal, she wasn’t disheartened and simply turned to chat with Lu Sisi instead.

After observing for a while, Chen Yan understood that although the Liu Family intended to form a connection with him, sending Miss Ah Ruo served a secondary purpose: given her status as a young woman, she could easily approach Lu Sisi.

If Ah Ruo and Lu Sisi became good friends, naturally, the Liu Family’s relationship with him would grow closer.

A roundabout way of winning favors.

Upon reaching Jinling Prefecture, Chen Yan bade farewell to Ah Ruo and the others at the airport. Miss Ah Ruo didn’t linger; she mentioned she had business matters to handle in Jinling Prefecture and a place to stay. They parted amicably at the airport.
