I began my journey through the starry sky by planting the Tree of Enlightenment.

Jiang Yang frowned.

Looking out.

This section of the carriage was already packed with people.

This is also normal.

Including the time it took him to get here, it's now the morning rush hour in Tianfu City.

And in the distance.

Two people could be vaguely seen standing at the door.

A space was deliberately cleared around them for the two of them.

Many people watched it like spectators.

As for the reason for the argument...

Jiang Yang listened for a moment.

Then I lost interest.

One person was pushed by the person behind them when they opened the door.

The two then started hurling insults at each other.

Jiang Yang chose to keep his eyes closed.

He didn't know how to talk about such a small thing.

Perhaps those who work the early shift these days are all bottling up their anger.

It's about to explode at the slightest touch.

After all, in recent years, the competitive pressure in society has become increasingly severe.

Many people face unemployment upon graduation.

……

Then the arrival announcement came over the loudspeaker.

Jiang Yang squeezed through the crowd.

The road ahead is not far from the Jiang residence.

It's about a ten-minute walk.

Jiang Yang even had his doubts.

The entrance was built because of the Jiang family's residence nearby.

Along the way, the towering corporate buildings are all the foundations of the family businesses.

Jiang Yang didn't linger. He walked all the way to his villa and fell asleep immediately.

……

When I opened my blurry eyes...

Looking out the floor-to-ceiling window, the afterglow of the setting sun fills the view.

Two lingering smells remained in the room.

That's not hard to tell.

They are all perfumes with a feminine scent.

It seems that Fuding and Jiang Ying came in to check on him after learning that he had returned safely.

Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, they didn't linger for long.

Enter the space of consciousness.

The bud on the left didn't whine and cry out to him how hungry it was, as it usually did.

It seems that the life energy provided by the two water snakes earlier was indeed sufficient.

Clenching my fist, I could feel a significant enhancement effect.

but……

My stomach is still empty.

I haven't eaten all day.

I immediately dialed Xiao Wei's number.

"Xiao Wei, come to my villa."

"Yes, Master."

In no time at all.

Wei Yuanren arrived at the door, panting.

He even knocked politely on the door before coming in, and only entered after being given permission.

Seeing this, Jiang Yang nodded in satisfaction.

That's what a good housekeeper is like.

Unlike Fuding and Jiang Ying, who dared to walk into his room without any scruples.

Jiang Yang didn't pursue the matter further.

After all, both of them were doing it for his own good.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yang pointed to the backpacks in the distance.

"Xiao Wei, the bag is full of freshly picked items. Have someone with a medical background check them with you to see which ones are useful, especially the unusual ones. You know what I mean?"

After listening, Wei Yuanren nodded and said, "Understood."

"Um--"

"Also, please prepare my dinner."

……

After Jiang Yang had arranged everything, Wei Yuanren said, "Master, the head of the family said that you should go to his place when you come back, as he says there is something to discuss."

Jiang Yang was stunned.

Jiang Tianhan is looking for him?

According to the original owner's memories.

Jiang Tianhan rarely spoke to his brothers in private.

It could even be described as completely ignoring them.

What should we talk about if we contact him now?

He immediately got up and washed up briefly.

I feel much lighter.

He immediately went to the backyard.

Walking along a corridor surrounded by trees.

Jiang Yang looked around.

On both sides, the branches intertwine, obscuring most of the sky.

The old-fashioned wall lamps lined up along the road lit up one after another.

The style is quite nice.

And then there's the surrounding environment.

What Jiang Ying said earlier was true.

The layout here is a step above theirs.

My gaze followed the corridor into the distance.

At the edge of the field of vision stood the villa of the Jiang family patriarch.

Jiang Yang walked quickly away.

The guards at the door didn't stop him and let him walk in.

We had only gone in a few steps.

Then they saw Jiang Tianhan standing guard not far away.

Those sitting beside me.

It was none other than Yuan Honghu, the chief steward of the Jiang family.

Jiang Tianhan seemed to be talking to Yuan Honghu about something.

A look of shock crossed his eyes.

Only after hearing footsteps approaching did she belatedly look towards Jiang Yang.

He met Jiang Yang's gaze.

He unconsciously became more reserved.

"cough……"

"Yang'er, you've come."

"Um."

Jiang Yang replied silently.

Jiang Tianhan looked at Jiang Yang's face carefully, and when he saw Jiang Yang's hands appear before him intact, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he hid it very well.

He turned and walked inside, saying, "Come with me, everything you want to know is here."

Although Jiang Yang had some thoughts in mind, he still followed them inside.

We entered a secret room.

Yuan Honghu considerately closed the door.

Jiang Tianhan sat on one of the carved pearwood chairs, then pointed with two fingers to the empty pearwood chair opposite him, indicating that he should sit down as well.

"Sit down, let's have a heart-to-heart talk, father and son. There's no need for that."

Jiang Yang sat down very decisively.

Jiang Tianhan opened his mouth as if he had something to say, but then swallowed it back. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Yang'er, you've changed."

"Everyone changes."

"well--"

Jiang Tianhan let out a long sigh.

"The symptoms you had three years ago weren't actually a disease."

Jiang Yang remained expressionless.

He was quite certain that the old man in front of him was right.

Seeing that Jiang Yang was still chatting and laughing, he seemed to feel relieved.

Judging from your expression, you probably already know.

"That's right. Since you've managed to suppress these symptoms, you must have gained some understanding of them."

"This is actually a secret spell cast on you by someone from the Chanwu Secret Sect. In modern terms, you've been bewitched."

"This kind of secret incantation, once cast, needs to be broken by finding the original owner."

A look of doubt flashed in Jiang Yang's eyes.

He vaguely gleaned something from these words.

Jiang Tianhan continued, "The Chanwu Secret Sect belongs to the Lower Seventy-Two Sects and is the true ruler of this world."

"As for those above them, your father doesn't know much either."

"Our Jiang clan, though outwardly glamorous, is actually just one of the supporting forces of the Seventy-Two Lower Sects, the Burning Heaven Secret Martial Sect, responsible for collecting relevant resources and information for them..."

"The reason you were cursed with a secret spell is that three years ago, both sects sent out orders to search for source crystals. Our Jiang clan was the first to discover and mine them, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Chanwu Secret Sect."

"He harbored a desire for revenge, but due to the agreement signed by the sect, he could not personally intervene, so he came up with the evil idea of ​​using a secret incantation."

"However, to successfully cast this secret incantation, you need..."

"well--"

Jiang Tianhan paused, seemingly having something difficult to say.

Jiang Yang understood easily after hearing this.

To successfully perform this secret mantra, it probably requires the same conditions as the ritual bowl.

He immediately said, "I need tokens like my hair or blood to pinpoint my location so I can cast spells accurately."

"Then someone from the tribe provided him with my hair and blood."

"Is that so?"

Jiang Yang's tone was icy.
