He stepped forward, extended his finger, and gently touched Xia He's forehead.
A wisp of pure lightning energy flowed in, instantly clearing away the remaining medicinal residue in her body.
"Let's go home first! They're still waiting for us at home."
Chapter 131 Superpowers are immune to schemes and tricks!
Xishan Manor was brightly lit.
On the sofa in the living room, Xia He was lying flat with her eyes closed.
Zhang Lingyu stood to the side, her brows furrowed, her expression still showing signs of exhaustion.
"Junior Uncle! My dear Junior Uncle!"
Before Zhang Lingyu could even speak, Zhang Chulan had already rushed over and slid in to meet her.
Without saying a word, he immediately started frantically groping Zhang Lingyu's body.
He pinched her arms, patted her thighs, and even wanted to lift up Zhang Lingyu's shirt hem:
"Let me check! Are any parts missing?"
"Is your kidney still there? Did those bastards try anything funny to you?!"
Zhang Lingyu got goosebumps all over from being touched, and his handsome face instantly darkened.
He slapped Zhang Chulan's hand away with his other hand:
"Chu Lan, have some self-respect!"
"I'm fine, I was just a little drugged."
"Phew, as long as the parts are all there."
Zhang Chulan let out a long sigh of relief and wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead.
On a single sofa not far away.
Zhang Tianyi had already comfortably settled inside.
He held a glass of chilled watermelon juice, biting on a straw, watching the uncle and nephew bickering.
"Alright, Chu Lan, stop touching me. If anyone's going to eat this piece of Tang Monk's flesh, it'll be the one lying on the sofa, not you."
Zhang Lingyu blushed and quickly looked down at her nose, pretending not to hear.
"Well……"
Just then, Xia He on the sofa let out a soft moan and slowly opened her eyes.
"Xia He! You're awake?"
Zhang Lingyu immediately bent down, her concern evident in her voice.
"How are you feeling? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Xia He rubbed her temples and slowly sat up.
Her usually charming and alluring eyes were now filled with confusion.
"My head... hurts so much."
Xia He glanced at the unfamiliar surroundings, then at Zhang Lingyu, Zhang Tianyi, and the others in front of her, her eyes somewhat glazed over.
“Lingyu…aren’t we on our way back? How come…”
"We were ambushed on the road; the other side used a sleeping drug."
Zhang Lingyu explained in a deep voice, then remembered the important matter and hurriedly asked, "By the way, what exactly is that earth-shattering secret you said you would tell Master and Second Uncle?"
"Your second uncle is right here, so speak quickly."
"secret?"
Xia He was stunned for a moment.
She subconsciously reached out and tapped her head, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
"About...that person..."
Xia He tried hard to recall.
But it was completely blank.
"I...I don't remember."
Xia He's face turned pale, and her voice carried a hint of fear:
"I know I have a very important secret to tell... but, the specifics of that secret..."
"They're all gone."
The entire room fell silent instantly.
"Holy crap?"
Zhang Chulan stared wide-eyed at Xia He as if watching a science fiction movie: "Big sister, have you lost your memory?"
Zhuge Qing pushed up his glasses, a hint of horror flashing in his squinted eyes.
He turned to look at Wang Ye, and the two exchanged a perfectly synchronized glance, uttering three words in unison:
"Soul Clarity Technique!"
"These guys are absolutely awful."
Wang Ye sighed, leaned against a Roman column, and sorted out the logic behind it:
"We were wondering before, since the other side was able to drug you two without you noticing, why didn't they just kill you?"
"Now I understand."
Wang Ye glanced at Zhang Tianyi, who was sitting on the sofa drinking juice, and said with a wry smile:
"They wouldn't dare."
"To disturb a direct disciple of the Celestial Master's Mansion would be a grave offense. Moreover, the whole world now knows that this living ancestor is in Beijing."
Zhuge Qing, fanning himself with a folding fan, added:
"The mastermind behind the other party is extremely shrewd and cautious. They know that once someone is injured, it is equivalent to making an irreconcilable enemy of the Celestial Master's Mansion and the senior."
"So, they took the safest, and also the most disgusting, method—"
"Drug them, erase their memories, and then quickly grab the bucket and run away."
Zhang Chulan slapped his thigh, "The enemy is truly a top-tier sixth agent! There's simply no way to investigate them!"
Zhang Lingyu listened to everyone's analysis, his face turning ashen.
To be laid down like meat on a chopping board and have one's memories altered is an utter disgrace for a cultivator.
"Second Uncle..."
Zhang Lingyu looked at Zhang Tianyi with a face full of guilt, "This disciple is incompetent and let the clues go cold."
"It's no big deal."
Zhang Tianyi put down the watermelon juice in her hand without even frowning.
Instead of getting angry, he stretched lazily with an extremely relaxed expression:
"If the clues are lost, so be it. I don't have the brain capacity to remember all those messy conspiracies and tricks anyway."
Zhang Tianyi looked at Zhang Lingyu, who was filled with frustration, and chuckled:
"Lingyu, remember one thing."
"A fox's tail will eventually show. A secret will always come to light."
"The more they go to such lengths to hide it, the more afraid they are."
"Since everyone is safe, that's better than anything else. As for the rest, let the dust settle."
These words were spoken casually, yet they exuded absolute confidence.
With superpowers, it doesn't matter whether you have a super brain or not!
The gloom in Zhang Lingyu's heart dissipated considerably, and he nodded respectfully: "Yes, disciple has learned much."
"Alright, let's turn the page."
Zhang Tianyi snapped his fingers, seemingly unwilling to waste any more time on this trivial matter.
He turned his head and shouted down the corridor:
"Girl! Stop busying yourself and come out to greet the guests!"
Everyone was taken aback and followed Zhang Tianyi's gaze.
At the corner of the corridor, Chen Duo was holding a dripping spatula.
She walked out looking so adorable.
"Master, did you call me?" Chen Duo asked softly.
Zhang Lingyu turned her head and looked at the unfamiliar girl with a unique style, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Master?
Zhang Tianyi stood up, walked to Chen Duo's side, and naturally reached out to ruffle her hair.
Then, he looked at Zhang Lingyu with a wicked smile:
"Lingyu, I was so focused on talking about your attack that I forgot to introduce you to the newcomer."
Zhang Tianyi pointed at Chen Duo and said in a serious tone:
"This is Chen Duo. She is my newly accepted first disciple in Biyou Village."
"From now on, he will be the sole heir of the Tian Shu lineage of our Celestial Master's Mansion."
Zhang Lingyu's eyes widened instantly.
Although he usually lived a secluded life in the mountains, he had heard about the company's wanted notice for the Gu-body Saint Child.
