My Fairy Raising Game

Chapter 13 Yin Kui Mountain, the Heavenly Corpse Elder

Moreover... deep within Shen Yu's body, there was a sharp and unparalleled aura lurking, as if a celestial sword with its sharp edge was hidden within, or perhaps some kind of special sword physique.

However, Pei Suyi did not mention this.

She would never rashly expose someone else's secrets.

As for what she just revealed, even if she didn't say it, Yang Lan would probably find out sooner or later; she couldn't hide it from her at all.

"Yeah?"

Yang Lan was somewhat surprised, glanced at Shen Yu, and then suddenly realized:

"That's right. You possess the Taiyin Divine Meridian, and your nature is detached and aloof, with a pure heart, like a precious mirror polished from celestial jade, capable of reflecting everything. You will be able to sense those with similar or completely opposite traits."

"But I really didn't expect that my nephew would have such a talent. I think my sister would be very gratified if she were alive."

At this point, Yang Lan was clearly somewhat disappointed.

The two women didn't chat for long before Pei Suyi took her leave.

"Shen Yu greets Senior Sister Pei."

As Pei Suyi passed by the stone platform, Shen Yu stood up and gave her a slight bow, but made no attempt to approach her to speak.

The Jade Toad Palace is strictly hierarchical.

Both were disciples, but one was an outer disciple while the other was a true disciple. The difference in their status was like heaven and earth, so Shen Yu naturally dared not offend them in the slightest.

Pei Suyi's icy blue eyes held a coldness and aloofness, as if they could see through people's hearts. She simply nodded slightly in response, then turned and left, accompanied by a faint, cool fragrance.

However, Shen Yu was puzzled because he could not sense any cultivation aura from the other party.

"This woman's cultivation is profound; I can't discern the slightest clue. Could it be that she has cultivated some kind of advanced concealment technique, or is it due to a special physique?"

Shen Yu was puzzled. Just then, a voice came from the side:

"What, you've taken a liking to her?"

Shen Yu withdrew his gaze from the other woman's slender and beautiful back, looked at Yang Lan who was walking towards him, and said helplessly, "Auntie, don't tease me. Senior Sister Pei is a true disciple, how could someone as insignificant as me even dream of her?"

"It's good that you understand."

Yang Lan snorted: "Pei Suyi has a special identity and a noble status. She is valued by the sect leader and the elders. Not to mention you, even that kid from the Wu family probably wouldn't be able to save you if you really lost your mind."

She seemed hesitant and didn't finish her sentence, instead pointing to the stone bench, "Alright, sit down."

"Yes."

The two took their seats one after the other. At this moment, the maid Cuilan sent someone to bring over exquisite pastries, spiritual fruits, and tea, and then quickly left, leaving the two of them alone.

"Since my sister and brother-in-law passed away, you, little one, have rarely come to visit me."

Yang Lan got straight to the point, looking at Shen Yu and saying:

"Tell me, what brings you here today?"

Shen Yu knew his aunt's style of doing things; she was always decisive and acted on her own whims. He simply said, "I've come to ask you something, Aunt, about my parents."

Yang Lan frowned slightly: "So much time has passed, why are you suddenly asking about this?"

Shen Yu didn't waste any words: "To be honest, Aunt, a few days ago, I accidentally learned some things. Someone told me that there was another reason for my parents' death back then."

"shut up!"

Yang Lan's expression suddenly turned cold, and an oppressive aura naturally emanated from her: "Who told you about this?"

A Golden Core cultivator has gathered the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit, achieving perfect unity. They have condensed a trace of immortal golden nature and acquired a bit of "immortal" qualities. Therefore, they are no longer considered human. Their life essence has been elevated, making them a transcendent being.

Such a person, in every action, embodies the power of heaven and earth.

Under Yang Lan's imposing aura, Shen Yu's body stiffened. He felt as if the surrounding void had been solidified into a tangible form. He was like a small insect trapped in amber, powerless and unable to move.

However, soon, the divine power talisman of the Ice Soul Yuan Blade that Shen Yu had condensed within his body trembled slightly, and ripples appeared on its surface, relieving some of the pressure on Shen Yu's body and allowing him to sit steadily in place.

Yang Lan's eyes showed a hint of surprise upon seeing this, but she realized her lapse in composure and quickly regained her composure, her expression softening somewhat: "How did you know about this?"

"Auntie, please don't ask. I won't tell you."

Shen Yu, of course, wouldn't reveal his secret. His expression remained calm as he simply shook his head: "I came here today to ask my aunt if she knew anything about this. But now it seems the situation is quite obvious."

"Chang'an, the reason your aunt didn't tell you is actually for your own good. You should understand that sometimes it's better not to know than to know."

A complex expression appeared on Yang Lan's face, then she warned sternly, "This matter involves so much that even I dare not delve any further. If you don't want to die, you'd better forget about it and not mention a single word about it!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yu felt a chill run down his spine, realizing that this matter clearly involved a higher level of power; otherwise, his aunt, who was the vice hall master of the Transmission Hall, wouldn't have said such a thing.

"Is there anything else you want to teach me about this, Auntie?"

Shen Yu didn't want to leave empty-handed, so he planned to try and get some information indirectly.

Yang Lan knew that if she didn't reveal something, her nephew probably wouldn't let it go, since it involved the death of their parents, and who could truly remain calm?

She thought for a moment and said, "This matter involves the Yin Kui Mountain of the Demonic Path. Master Black Bone is just a pawn. Our sect's higher-ups have actually been secretly monitoring this matter and have their own plans, but due to some special circumstances, they chose to conceal the truth from the outside world. As for your parents, they were probably accidentally involved back then."

Yin Kui Mountain… Shen Yu mused, “No wonder…”

Yin Kui Mountain is a major sect of the demonic path, whose power is no less than that of the Jade Toad Palace. Its leader, the Heavenly Corpse Elder, is a renowned demonic giant in the cultivation world and a terrifying existence who has achieved the Dao Fruit of Primordial Spirit Longevity.

Such an enemy naturally requires the Jade Toad Palace to treat him with utmost care.

Fearing that Shen Yu might overestimate his abilities and investigate, Yang Lan warned him, "So, just pretend you know nothing about this matter, and don't investigate it. Otherwise, if you ruin someone's plans, not to mention the Yin Kui Mountain of the Demonic Path, the higher-ups within the sect won't let you off the hook, and even I won't be able to protect you."

"Don't worry, Auntie, I understand."

Shen Yu nodded seriously, but felt somewhat helpless inside.

In fact, he wanted to cultivate peacefully more than anyone else and didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

Even if he doesn't cause trouble, trouble will find him sooner or later.

The murderer who attacked him back then has not yet been found, which is still a hidden danger for Shen Yu. Who knows when the other party will take advantage of his inattention to strike him again.

It's always better to conduct a covert investigation than to be forced into a defensive posture.

However, there's no need to tell my aunt about these things.
