[Haha, so, this time I can only admit defeat and let them beat and scold me. I hope they can calm down and stop saying bad things about me around you. It's just nonsense. ]

Shen Yuelan almost spit out the tea in her mouth. This guy is so full of energy and can even make dirty jokes. He really has no memory at all.

[So, my little darling, can you tell me how you cracked my dream? Everything in the dream was clearly set up according to my real experience, so there shouldn't be any mistakes.]

[Yes, your dream is so real. During the first five days in Meng Tang, I had no doubts about the authenticity of this trip. Even on the last day, I didn’t really understand what was going on.]

[Now that I think about it, it was probably because I met someone I shouldn’t have met and deviated from the itinerary you set.]

Shen Yuelan's answer made Gan Yuelong fall into deep thought. Was it the people who were the problem? But that was not right. He had specially gone to the Tang Dynasty to copy the memories and personalities of every person in Chang'an City one to one. How could there be a problem?

[Someone you shouldn't meet? There is no one you shouldn't meet in this world, and this is especially true for my Chang'an City. Those Tang people were all reproduced one-to-one by me according to the real people. Logically, there shouldn't be any problems, right? ]

[Alas, it’s not that there is anything wrong with these people’s memory or personality, but that their logic is too reasonable or intelligent.

[As long as I open my mouth to speak, things will always develop in the direction I expect. Once or twice, I am eloquent, but what about three or four times? That would be too good to be true.]

[So, this aroused my suspicion, but before I could take any further action, the dream was shattered, leaving me no chance to regret.]

Gan Yuelong scratched his head when he heard this. It seemed that his understanding of people was far from enough. But how many years of accumulation would it take to achieve such a thing? If he wanted to realize his dream, it would be a long way to go.

[Okay, I get it. I'm sorry that I lied to you and didn't fulfill my promise to take you on a trip to the prosperous Tang Dynasty. As compensation, I can promise you one thing.]

[However, I cannot talk about matters involving Yin Ji and the Franc Organization. That is not my business alone, and I have no right to disclose that information to you.]

Shen Yuelan was not in a hurry to speak, because Gan Yuelong's words themselves contained a lot of information. Although she still spoke vaguely, she did not deny that she had a connection with the Franc Organization in front of her.

Shen Yuelan is a person who is easily satisfied. The above information has satisfied her curiosity. Therefore, Shen Yuelan does not intend to dwell on this issue any further.

[Okay, okay, then how about helping me find the Mingdao demon? It will take some time for that guy's demon body to appear, but his real body should have been forged by now.]

[Oh? With your beautiful eyes, how could that little demon escape? Why waste my promise? If you can't think of it now, just keep it. This promise will be valid for as long as I live.]

Shen Yuelan thought about it and felt that Gan Yuelong’s promise might be of great use in the future, so she agreed to Gan Yuelong’s suggestion.

Seeing that the purpose of this trip had been achieved, Gan Yuelong did not stay any longer. She told Shen Yuelan that her spies had recently discovered Yin Ji's whereabouts in Zhao State, so they had to catch her first. If Shen Yuelan was interested in this, she could go and take a look.

[Eun-ji? Aren't you from the same faction? Why did you arrest her and put on such a show? Do you have to be so dedicated? ]

Upon hearing this, Gan Yuelong rolled his eyes at Shen Yuelan and said unhappily:

[Alas, I can't explain the matter to you in a short time. So what if it's just a faction? There are no factions within that faction, right? Aren't there enough cases of dogs biting each other? ]

[Okay, I'm leaving now. You can do whatever you want.]

Chapter 175: Total Annihilation

After Gan Yuelong finished speaking, he left the island, leaving Shen Yuelan lying on the bed, staring at the sky in silence. She hated people who spoke only a few words the most. They seemed so mysterious, but when they really met them, they were just like that.

[Alan, you just let her go like that? ]

When Shen Sushang saw Gan Yuelong leaving the island in a swagger, she recalled the grudge between them and felt uncomfortable. After thinking for a while, she ran over to complain.

[What else? Do you really think we can keep her? These old-timers are all very smart. Who knows how many cards they have hidden? It would be unwise to rashly make enemies with them.]

[Don't worry, she doesn't care about your behavior. Although it's not nice to say this, Gan Yuelong doesn't take you seductresses seriously. Tsk, how ironic.]

[Humph, she looks down on us, but we look down on her too. Could it be that she really didn't give you any compensation at all? ]

[Of course I did. How could I let go of this opportunity to blackmail her? She made me a promise, and I think it will be useful in the future.]

Shen Suchang pursed her lips. Although she was still not satisfied, she didn't say anything more. Compared with those annoying things, Shen Suchang preferred to talk about happy things.

[Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore.]

[By the way, Alan, how is your recovery going? Suyi and I just caught a big salmon from the sea. It’s very fresh. How about we make some sashimi for you? ]

[Fish sashimi? Let me try some. Does it need to be dipped in mustard? ]

[There was no mustard in the Warring States Period. Now we only have the chili oil we brought from the other world. It is used to remove the fishy smell anyway, so it doesn’t matter which one you eat.]

Although fish sashimi tastes delicious, it still contains many parasites because it has not been sterilized at high temperature. As a result, Shen Yuelan had a diarrheal illness the very night she ate the fish sashimi.

Shen Suchang and others also had abdominal pain to varying degrees. Fortunately, Shen Huanyan escaped the disaster because she didn't like raw food and refused fish sashimi. Otherwise, Shen Yuelan and her group would have been wiped out because of a small tuna.

Thanks to this, Shen Yuelan finally chose not to join Gan Yuelong in the fun. She came to the Warring States Period to carry out the pursuit mission, not to look for her "former master's wife".

Instead of getting involved in Zhao State's trivial affairs, I might as well live a comfortable life here for two years.

But things don't always go as planned. The more Shen Yuelan doesn't want to get involved, the more things happen to her, as if someone is deliberately pushing her forward.

One day, when Shen Yuelan and others were hunting in the sea, they suddenly found a small boat floating towards them. Strangely, there was no one on the boat controlling it.

When the boat floated to Shen Yuelan and others, they were surprised to find that there was someone on the boat. She was a silver-haired beauty whose hair color was very similar to Gan Yuelong's. She seemed to be injured and was lying unconscious on the boat.

Shen Yuelan recognized without any hesitation that this guy must be one of Gan Yuelong's concubines. The reason was simple: the two looked so similar, just like Shen Yuelan and Shen Huanyan.

Although the approximate origin of this guy can be confirmed, her identity remains a mystery, because Shen Yuelan is very sure that the body of this guy is not a franc, but a high-silver Yuan Datou.

This made Shen Yuelan quite upset. It was not enough to deal with Yin Ji, and now there came Yuan Ji. Shen Yuelan didn't believe that there was no explanation for this.

Although we don't know whether this person is a friend or an enemy, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. So we should save her life first and then notify Gan Yuelong to come back and pick her up.

However, this move aroused suspicion from Shen Sushang and others. They did not want to be like Mr. Dongguo and save a snake that bit people.

Shen Yuelan scratched her head, thinking that what Su Shang and the others said was right. She still had to prepare countermeasures. She should be prepared for the worst. If one of her enchantresses seduced her, she would suffer a great loss.

The strange enchantress's wound was very big. A long knife wound cut diagonally from the left shoulder to the right abdomen, which looked very scary.

But when Shen Yuelan was actually bandaging the wound, she found that the wound had avoided all vital parts and was not life-threatening. The reason she fainted was simply due to excessive blood loss.

[Hello? Sister Yuelong, have you caught Yin Ji? ]

[Huh, are you mocking me? I've only been away from the island for a few days, how can I be gone so quickly? Did something happen to you?]

[Ah, there is something I need to tell you. We found your... um... a former enchantress near the island? ]

[Huh? What is that?]

[Um... the real body is a silver-haired beautiful girl with Yuan Datou! ]

【…】

【…】

After Shen Yuelan said this, the two of them fell silent. Shen Yuelan was silent because she found that what she had just said was really difficult to express.

Gan Yuelong recalled some not-so-good memories. If Yin Ji was the first demon girl Gan Yuelong contracted, then Yuan Datou was the first demon girl she raised personally. Her position in Gan Yuelong's heart was no less than that of Shen Huanyan in Shen Yuelan's heart.

Of course, that is already in the past. Now Gan Yuelong's most precious thing is still Wanchuan. As for this former [treasure], Gan Yuelong really doesn't want to see her.

This guy is a typical example of someone who has been spoiled by her. He has talent and good abilities, but he is a bit of a yandere, and a career-oriented yandere at that. Once Gan Yuelong fails to achieve the goals she expects, this guy starts to make all kinds of trouble.

But this guy is very sensible and always manages to dance on Gan Yuelong's red line, making it impossible for Gan Yuelong to say anything or scold him. It can be said that she loves and hates him but is helpless.

Until one day, this guy was successfully noticed by Yin Ji because of his outstanding abilities, and Gan Yuelong was finally able to escape from the sea of suffering. In order to let her leave with peace of mind, Gan Yuelong put on a big show and went through a lot of trouble.

In short, Shen Yuelan probably understood what Gan Yuelong was hesitating about for a long time, which was that she had absolutely no intention of coming back. In her eyes, Yin Ji might be even cuter than Yuan Datou.

[In short, if she asks about me, just say you don't know her and there is no such person. If you can help me get rid of her, I will reward you handsomely later.]

Gan Yuelong's reaction made Shen Yuelan wonder. Over the years, Shen Yuelan had seen unpopular beauties before, but this was the first time she had seen one being disliked like this. She had to admit that this was also her ability.

Soon, Shen Yuelan had her first meeting. Unlike the absurd appearance she had imagined, [Yuan Datou] was quite gentle and polite after waking up, and was not at all as bad as Gan Yuelong described.

Chapter 176 The Storm is Coming

[Your personality seems different from what is rumored? ]

[Hehe, let me guess, it must be my lovely ex-owner who told you. Now she is the only one who speaks ill of me everywhere.]

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuelan immediately wanted to slap herself. She had exposed the relationship between her and Gan Yuelong with just one sentence. How could she continue the conversation?

The enchantress on the opposite side seemed to see Shen Yuelan's embarrassment. She told Shen Yuelan very understandingly that she had known for a long time that Gan Yuelong was in this era, and that this information was not obtained from Shen Yuelan, so she asked her to relax.

[Really? I'm not trying to compliment you, but you seem to be really considerate.]

[Hehe, the me you see now is not fake, and what my former master said is also true. People are not static. Maybe my yandere attitude is just a distorted way for me to show my love. It is still unknown.]

[In the end, I still don’t understand what I wanted to express and what I hoped to get from her.]

[Maybe, you just want to act coquettishly to Sister Yuelong? ]

[Haha, it's an interesting hypothesis, but you know what kind of person that guy is. She is a very violent workaholic. When I followed her, she was at the rising stage of her career.]

[Therefore, she often does not rest for several months, and I have to suffer with her. If you have a certain degree of understanding of society, you should know that in this kind of family environment, it is probably impossible to raise a well-behaved child.]

[It's no wonder that I became a yandere in this high-pressure environment, right? Fortunately, in the end, Sister Yin Ji couldn't bear it anymore and took me away from Gan Yuelong. This is how I escaped from the sea of suffering, and my personality has been restored to a certain extent. ]

[A certain degree of restoration?]

[Yes, I didn't express it wrongly. The reason I said that is because I am fine when facing you, but if I see Gan Yuelong, I will immediately enter a state of rage.]

[Gan Yuelong said that about me because of this reason, but, in the final analysis, this matter was caused by herself, and no one else can be blamed. ]

Shen Yuelan did not refute this because she knew that what this person said was true. She had been with Shen Huanyan for so many years and watched her grow from an ignorant and naive little girl to a calm and composed enchanting girl. Shen Yuelan knew too well the influence she had on them.

But as the saying goes, every man has his own reasons, and every woman has her own reasons. The family affairs of these two people are not something Shen Yuelan can control. What she cares about at the moment is not the love and hatred between the two, but why this person appears here at this time.

[You are right. The master is indeed responsible for the education of his own enchantress. If that is the case, then why are you here instead of pursuing Gan Yuelong? ]

[Of course I came here to find that person, but my positioning device has a slight delay and can only locate the location from a few days ago.]

[Also, on the way here, I encountered a group of scoundrels who broke the equipment I was using to search. I had no choice but to try my luck here. Now it seems that I am lucky.]

Isn’t that great? Not only did he get treated, but he also encountered a clue that fell into his arms. Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.

[Hey, what do you need? Just tell me. I'm afraid you've already used up most of the information I have here, right? ]

[Haha, you are such a smart guy. However, as I just said, I don't intend to get any information about Gan Yuelong from you. The grudge between Gan Yuelong and me should not involve other people.]

[So don't worry, I'm just here to rest for a while, I will disappear when the time is right. ]

[By the way, we have been chatting for such a long time, you still don’t know my name, right? My last name is of course the same as that person’s. As for my given name, it is Xingyan, Gan Xingyan.]

Gan Xingyan? To be honest, although Gan Yuelong called this guy a "sickly girl", he also perfectly inherited all of Gan Yuelong's advantages, and was even better than Gan Yuelong in some aspects.

For example, this person's words are as reliable as his words, and they are much more trustworthy than Gan Yuelong's, at least that's what it seems now.

[So what are your plans now? Continue to stay here with us, or go straight out to find Sister Yuelong? ]

[Well, let me be lazy for a moment. The place you chose is good. It is a beautiful place with pleasant scenery.]

[However, I still want to remind you that if your boss finds out that you are on vacation during work hours, you will be punished.]

[It doesn’t matter. I’m the most senior person in our unit, and Sister Yuelong has to help me.]

[Eh? Ah, sorry, I judged you by your appearance. Your biological age looks only about three years old, so I preconceived that you should be an ordinary civil servant in the other world. I didn't expect that you are actually a leader.]

[Humph, of course. You may not believe me, but I am also a major general.]

Gan Xingyan was slightly surprised when he heard this. It is not uncommon for people like Shen Yuelan to take up leadership positions at a young age, but they are relatively rare and not new.

But to be able to reach the rank of major general at this age is truly unprecedented and will never be surpassed.

[Oh, I really didn't recognize you. Seriously, you are really good. No wonder Gan Yuelong likes you.]

[Okay, you also know medicine. Although my injury is not serious, I still need to take good care of myself for a while. After telling you so much, I am a little tired and want to rest for a while. When you leave, remember to close the door for me.]

[Okay, okay, my aunt, just have a good rest. Remember to get up and eat at night. Even if you are a demon, you still need to replenish your energy. ]

【Oh, I see. 】

After walking out of the thatched cottage where Gan Xingyan was, Shen Yuelan looked back at the enchantress in the cottage with a dim gaze. Although what this girl said seemed to be very aggrieved, Shen Yuelan would not completely believe it.

The mouths and hands of these old foxes are not from the same family. To know their true stance, we should look at what they do, not what they say.

Although it is not accurate based on their behavior alone, it is at least more believable than the lies they say.

[Alas, the storm is coming, Huanyan, it looks like our vacation will be over soon. ]

Chapter 177: Island Conspiracy

Gan Xingyan was quite well behaved during her time on the island. Just as she promised, she came here for vacation and not to cause any trouble.

But Gan Yuelong, who was far away in the heart of the mainland, refused to believe it no matter what. She kept asking Shen Yuelan to use various methods to test Gan Xingyan, trying to find out his true thoughts.

At first, Shen Yuelan was curious, and thought that the plan proposed by Gan Yuelong was worth a try, so she listened to Gan Yuelong and tried it several times, but without exception, she was discovered by Gan Xingyan.

Finally, she asked Shen Yuelan to pass a message to Gan Yuelong, asking Gan Yuelong to stop doing these fancy little tricks. If she was still the hero she was, she should come to see her in person and have a face-to-face chat.

In response to Gan Xingyan's provocation, although Gan Yuelong cursed him very badly on the other end of the phone, her body was very honest and she did not come over. She just let Shen Yuelan continue to help her test.

But if Shen Yuelan listened to Gan Yuelong's words at this time, she would be a little stupid. Gan Xingyan was obviously well prepared and had her under control.

Moreover, Gan Xingyan is different from Yin Ji and others in nature. Strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong with treating her as Gan Yuelong's daughter. In other words, the two will always reconcile.

At this time, if Shen Yuelan did something that was not conducive to the reconciliation between the two, she would be blamed later. Therefore, Shen Yuelan refused without hesitation and asked her to come back quickly to pick up the person.
