After a master of metaphysics severed ties with his family, the whole family was filled with regret!

Chapter 71 The Mysterious Disappearance of the Fifth Senior Brother
Luo Chuxue and Sun Yanzhen, who had always lived a secluded life, had never seen such a way of cursing before, and were completely dumbfounded.

By the time they realized what Luo Chujiu had said, she was already far away. The two of them were so angry that their eyes turned red, but they couldn't do anything about Luo Chujiu.

"Miss, you're so quick-witted! You really drove those two crazy. I need to learn from you how to talk people into a daze," Fei Yun said, unable to contain her delight.

Upon hearing this, Luo Chujiu smiled:

"Why are you learning this? Don't worry, as long as I'm around, you won't need to argue with people."

"After I learn it, I will help Miss argue with people, while Miss rests on the side and watches me argue."

Feiyun has really been corrupted by Luo Chujiu. She used to be such an honest person, but now she's all cunning and wicked.

Upon returning to the Imperial Preceptor's residence, Luo Chujiu discovered that Nalan Qingyin had also returned.

"Fourth Senior Brother, why are you back?"

Luo Chujiu happily went to greet him, then tugged at his sleeve and shook it.

"My second and third senior brothers heard about your upcoming marriage and are on their way to the capital. They will arrive in the next few days, so from today onwards, I will stay at the Imperial Preceptor's residence every day."

"Really? Second and Third Senior Brothers are coming? That's wonderful!"

Luo Chujiu was overjoyed to hear Nalan Qingyin's words, as she hadn't seen her second and third senior brothers for a long time!
"Well, they have no reason not to come to your wedding. I just don't know if Grandmaster will come down the mountain to attend." Nalan Qingyin said, looking at Luo Chujiu with affection.

With such a junior sister, what else can these grown men do but pamper her?
"Grandmaster isn't coming. He said he'll come down the mountain to take me back once I've severed all ties with my family and friends. Otherwise, he won't come down," Luo Chujiu complained angrily to Nalan Qingyin.

Upon hearing this, Nalan Qingyin was taken aback. "But I've calculated that your relationship with Xiao Beiming is predestined. It's not something that can be broken so easily, unless something unexpected happens."

However, this was not what he wanted to see. Given how obsessed his junior sister was with Xiao Beiming, she wouldn't want anything to happen to him.

"How would I know? My master only told me to sever the ties, but not how. I can only figure it out myself. To sever them, I have to get married first, right? So I'll get married to Xiao Beiming first, and we can talk about severing our ties later."

Luo Chujiu was also very distressed. She didn't like being down the mountain at all and only wanted to return to Xuanfeng Mountain to dominate the world. However, she was driven down the mountain by her master and couldn't go back because she hadn't completed her mission.

Seeing Luo Chujiu's distressed expression, Nalan Qingyin couldn't bear it and gently patted her head, comforting her:

"It's alright, your fourth senior brother will help you figure out a solution."

"Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother."

"If only Fifth Junior Brother were still here, he would definitely be able to find a way to solve your problem. I remember when Fifth Junior Brother was alive, Grandmaster always praised him for his precociousness and said he was smart."

"But my fifth senior brother has been missing for many years, and I have no memory of him at all."

When the topic of this fifth senior brother came up, Luo Chujiu had absolutely no memory of him.

“It’s normal that you can’t remember. Not long after I brought you back to the sect, Fifth Junior Brother left Xuanfeng Mountain. You were just a baby then, how could you remember what Fifth Junior Brother looked like?” Nalan Qingyin shook her head and said helplessly.

"Didn't Fourth Senior Brother try to find Fifth Senior Brother? Fourth Senior Brother's divination skills should be able to easily locate Fifth Senior Brother."

Hearing Luo Chujiu's words, Nalan Qingyin smiled helplessly:
“I’ve been casting a divination ever since my fifth junior brother disappeared. The divination showed that he was both far away and right in front of me, but I have never found any trace of him. I even doubted that my divination was wrong.”

Luo Chujiu found it strange when she heard Nalan Qingyin say that.

"Fourth Senior Brother's divination has never been wrong. Could it be that Fifth Senior Brother was disguised? That's why Fourth Senior Brother didn't notice him?"

"To be honest, I've almost forgotten what my fifth junior brother looks like. He's been missing for ten years, so his appearance must have changed quite a bit."

Perhaps, Nalan Qingyin will never see her fifth junior brother again, and she will no longer be so persistent.

"If only I remembered what Fifth Senior Brother looked like, then I could help Fourth Senior Brother calculate Fifth Senior Brother's location." To accurately calculate someone's location, the diviner must have seen that person's appearance; otherwise, the calculation will be inaccurate.

"It's alright, don't worry about it. Fate has its own course. Fifth Junior Brother is so smart, he won't let himself get into danger."

Nalan Qingyin had always comforted herself in this way.

Seeing this, Luo Chujiu didn't say anything more.

In the middle of the night, Luo Chujiu suddenly sat up, feeling a pang of panic.

Oh no, what's happened to Xiao Beiming again!

Luo Chujiu was about to get up and walk out when she saw Nalan Qingyin rushing over.

"Where are you going?"

"Why is Fourth Senior Brother here?"

The two looked at each other simultaneously, then both paused in surprise. Nalan Qingyin answered first:

"I noticed something unusual in the sky and thought something had happened to you, so I came over."

"It wasn't me, it must be Xiao Beiming. I left a mark on Xiao Beiming, so I could sense when something happened to him. Fourth Senior Brother's calculation must have been wrong because of the bond between us. Let's go check on him now, I'm worried about him."

Upon hearing this, Nalan Qingyin said nothing more and took Luo Chujiu directly to the Xiao Prince's Mansion.

This time, Nalan Qingyin and Luo Chujiu arrived at the Prince's Mansion together on horseback.

At this point, the Prince's residence was in complete chaos.

Xiao Beiming suddenly went berserk, smashing things without recognizing anyone, his eyes bloodshot, as if possessed!
Nan Ke was on his way to find Luo Chujiu when he saw the Imperial Preceptor and Luo Chujiu together at the Xiao Prince's residence.

"Imperial Preceptor! Miss Luo, please save my prince! Something has happened to him!"

Nan Ke looked at the two of them anxiously and said.

Luo Chujiu raised her hand, indicating that Nan Ke didn't need to say anything more. The two of them went straight to Xiao Beiming's room, then closed the door tightly, not letting anyone in.

After the brother and sister entered the house, they smelled a strong, pungent odor of blood.

Then, as they walked forward, they saw Xiao Beiming sitting on the edge of the bed, staring intently at the two of them.

"Fourth Senior Brother, it's been a long time!"

Upon hearing this, Nalan Qingyin froze on the spot, staring wide-eyed at Xiao Beiming.

"How is this possible?" Nalan Qingyin murmured, finding it too unbelievable.

Luo Chujiu didn't think much of it, assuming that Xiao Beiming was just calling Nalan Qingyin "Fourth Senior Brother" because he was following her lead.

Only Nalan Qingyin realized that this was not just a simple "Fourth Senior Brother"!
So his divination had already foretold it! So that's how it is!
Things that Nalan Qingyin couldn't understand before, she now understood completely!

"Xiao Beiming, are you feeling alright?"

Luo Chujiu wanted to go forward to check on Xiao Beiming's condition, but was immediately pulled back by Nalan Qingyin.

"Fourth Senior Brother, why are you stopping me?"
