Sensational! Fake Noble VS Real Genius

Chapter 1897: Xiao Yixue’s Past

Later, Xiao Yixue was discovered to have talent in medicine and fragrance technique. Ling Muyan pleaded with the Third Elder, asking him to accept Xiao Yixue as his apprentice.

From then on, Xiao Yixue’s status changed.

The Xiao Family members dared not look down on her, and nobody dared bully her anymore.

As for Ling Muyan, he remained gentle towards her.

Whenever Xiao Yixue encountered difficulties in medicine or fragrance technique, Ling Muyan would patiently teach her.

In other aspects, Ling Muyan would occasionally teach her a few things as well.

At the age when Xiao Yixue’s heart awoke to love, she had once been madly in love with someone, dedicating all her thoughts to romance. Ling Muyan had advised her more than once not to indulge in romance.

Xiao Yixue didn’t listen, and later, she was heartbreakingly hurt by that scoundrel.

During that painful time, it was Ling Muyan who accompanied her through it.

From then on, Xiao Yixue no longer believed in love, nor did she touch upon romance.

Indeed, she felt much freer.

One could say that Ling Muyan was Xiao Yixue’s white moonlight.

In her eyes, Ling Muyan was never wrong.

Even if Ling Muyan wanted her life, she would willingly give it.

After listening to Xiao Yixue’s recounting, Gu Zhiqi and Ling Zhiyu remained silent for a long time.

At the same time, they became even more certain that Xiao Yixue had not lied, and Ling Muyan had indeed sent her to kill.

However, why did Ling Muyan want to kill Ling Zhiyu and the others?

After finishing their questions, Gu Zhiqi and Ling Zhiyu left the dark prison where Xiao Yixue was confined.

Just now, Fu Yu had said that Xiao Yixue had committed a capital crime and wouldn’t survive for many days.

Gu Zhiqi had no particular feelings about this, but Ling Zhiyu felt that Xiao Yixue deserved it.

If it weren’t for Xiao Yixue, Chang Qing wouldn’t have died.

Yet, even this couldn’t resolve her hatred towards Xiao Yixue.

If Xiao Yixue hadn’t already been confined in the Law Enforcement Hall, she would have personally killed her to avenge Chang Qing.

After leaving the dark prison, Gu Zhiqi sought out Fu Yu to inquire about Seo Tianyin’s situation.

Learning from Fu Yu that Seo Tianyin was still confined in the dark prison, Gu Zhiqi went to visit Seo Tianyin.

Since someone had ordered Xiao Yixue to kill Seo Tianyin, there must be a secret concerning her.

Gu Zhiqi planned to question Seo Tianyin to see if anything could be gleaned.

However, unfortunately, nothing was uncovered.

Gu Zhiqi wasn’t overly concerned about this, and he left the Law Enforcement Hall together with Ling Zhiyu.

After leaving the Law Enforcement Hall, Ling Zhiyu was in a daze.

After a long time, she finally addressed Gu Zhiqi, "Master Gu, Chang Qing..."

Gu Zhiqi knew what she meant to say and responded directly, "To avoid distractions, let him enter reincarnation early."

Ling Zhiyu listened and fell silent.

Seeing Ling Zhiyu like this, Gu Zhiqi offered some comfort, "I’ve calculated that your fate is not limited to this lifetime; letting him enter reincarnation early might mean you’ll meet again someday."

The lifespan of cultivators is much longer than that of ordinary people, and it’s not unheard of for romances to span decades or even centuries.

Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s words, Ling Zhiyu’s eyes brightened, "Really? Can I meet Chang Qing again?"

"When will I be able to see him again?"

"You can indeed meet him again, as to when, I am unsure." Gu Zhiqi said, shrugging.

This matter really can’t be clearly defined; it could be dozens of years or even hundreds of years.

If she still were a Ninth-order Mystic Master, she could calculate it, but her current cultivation level is Eighth-rank, and forcing the calculation might work but would lead to backlash.

She certainly isn’t willing to sacrifice herself.

Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s reply, Ling Zhiyu was momentarily disheartened, but soon regained her spirit.
