Chapter 223 Unrepentant Appeal (7)
On her way back, Wangyou thought for a moment and then turned around to go find Mr. Lan.
"Hello, Mr. Lan."
"Is there something you need?"
"I'd like to ask if we can browse the books in your library?"
"You want to go into the library to read books."
“Yes, I want to go into the library to read books and learn about the basic situation of this world. My parents, A-Xian, A-Yao, Xue Yang and I have been without each other since we were young. Although we have famous teachers to guide us, we still lack some basic knowledge.” Wangyou said sincerely.
After pondering for a moment, Mr. Lan said, "Alright, I'll have Wangji take you there, but you mustn't damage the books in my library."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Lan. And on behalf of my good-for-nothing older brother and two younger brothers, thank you as well." Although it's possible to sneak in at night, it would be better to read openly and honestly.
The next day, after class, Wei Wuxian and Xue Yang were about to make friends with their new friends when Wangyou grabbed them by the collar and said, "You three, starting today, you'll be following me and this Senior Brother Wangji to the library to check in."
"what!"
"What 'ah'? Come on, Yao, keep up!"
Looking at the two people whose fate had been seized by the collar, Meng Yao shook her head, clearly already used to it.
"Forget-Me-Not, why do you read so many books?"
"I want to find an answer. There are so many evil spirits in this world that it feels abnormal to me." Wangyou didn't hide anything, after all, she couldn't calculate the location of the Ghost Seal fragments. These people all had good luck, so asking them to help find it should be faster.
"Second sister, do you want to see if you can find the reason in the Lan Clan's library?"
"Yes, the Lan Clan has always had a vast collection of artifacts; perhaps they can find the reason why this world has become the way it is."
As they talked, they soon arrived at the library. The group dispersed and began to read. With Wangyou sitting there, Wei and Xue, who were usually as energetic as rockets, couldn't get out of control and instead focused on reading and taking notes on the important parts.
A week later, Wangyou had read most of the books in the library, but she noticed that a small room was locked. She guessed that it probably contained forbidden books or something similar, so she decided to find a chance to go in and take a look, but she wouldn't take the three of them with her.
The information I've been looking at this week, even though I'm not sure if it's helpful, is pretty much what's being said in the materials and what's circulating in the public eye. It's the same story that a man surnamed Xue got a disc and became the leader of the cultivation world, but his good fortune didn't last long. He was attacked by the disc and it was destroyed.
Wangyou guessed that the disc was the Ghost Seal, but she remembered that the Ghost Seal wasn't disc-shaped. It seemed she would have to find them all to find out why.
As soon as they left the library, Wei Wuxian and Xue Yang dragged Meng Yao and Nie Huaisang to the back mountain to run wild, just like monkeys that had just been released.
Wangyou went back to her room to rest.
Then, during this rest, trouble struck. As soon as he stepped outside, he heard that Wei Wuxian and Lan Zhan were missing.
"Weren't you two with A-Xian?"
"We came back after we finished fishing. Big Brother said he went to find Lan Zhan, and then he never came back," Xue Yang said as he sat down.
Wangyou stretched out her hand and calculated for a moment, then smiled and said, "The time has come!"
"Second sister, when will you be able to predict the future again?"
“I always will. Let’s go to Mr. Lan’s place. They’re back.” Wangyou got up and walked out.
Meng Yao and Xue Yang were completely confused, but they still followed.
As soon as Wangyou and the others arrived, they found the place unusually lively. Forgetting all about etiquette, they quickly pushed open the door and went inside. Sure enough, it was that fragment of the Ghost Seal that was causing the trouble. Wangyou quickly put the item away.
"Forget your worries!"
"Forget-Me-Not Girl!"
After sealing the Yin energy on it, Wangyou took out another piece from her bosom. The pattern on it was the same, confirming that it was a fragment of the Ghost Seal.
"Forget-Me-Not, how come you have one in your hand?"
"I got this from the Chang family."
"Does Miss Wangyou know what this is?" Lan Qiren asked seriously.
"This is something from the underworld. If I'm not mistaken, this should be the Ghost Seal that is responsible for the operation of the underworld. I just don't know who stole it to the human world."
"The underworld?"
"Don't you know that after death, spirits have to report to the underworld? If a spirit doesn't enter the underworld, it will eventually become an evil spirit or disappear. The gates to the underworld in this world are closed. Ten years ago, I tried to summon the gates to the underworld and the underworld officials, but there was no response. I guess something has happened to the Ten Kings of Hell." Wangyou's expression was serious.
"How do you know so much?" Old Mr. Lan was reluctant to believe it.
"Mr. Lan, have you ever heard of the Xie family?"
"You mean the reclusive Xie family?"
"That's right, I'm a member of the Xie family."
How do you prove your identity?
"You should have seen this kind of wooden plaque before. I've seen records about the Xie family in the books in the library."
"So it really is. My apologies."
"It's alright."
"So Miss Wangyou means to find other fragments so that the underworld can reappear, and thus the evil spirits of the world can disappear," said Young Master Lan.
“That’s right, but the most important thing right now is to find the location of the other fragments. The Ghost Seal cannot be manipulated by humans. I estimate that the Wen Clan of Qishan has at least one piece.”
How can you be so sure?
“The Wen family members who came last time had a kind of yin energy on them, a yin energy that belongs only to the Ghost Seal.”
“If this is true, this is a big deal. I’ll have Wangji go down the mountain to search for the Ghost Seal with you,” Elder Lan said immediately.
Thus, Wangyou and the others' journey of learning ended prematurely, and they went down the mountain together to search for the fragments.
Of course, they didn't head straight for the Wen family. After all, Wen Ruohan was the Immortal Supervisor, and the Wen family was the number one family, so their defenses were definitely very tight.
Along the way, the group discovered a large number of puppets, and the Wen family was also making a big move.
On the way, Lan Wangji received a message from the Gusu Lan Clan that Cloud Recesses had been captured by the Wen Clan and that all the disciples of the aristocratic families were required to go to the Wen Clan for instruction.
"The Wen family is trying to wipe out the remaining forces of all the powerful families in one fell swoop. We need to speed things up," Wangyou sighed.
"I want to go back to Cloud Recesses." Lan Zhan really wanted to go home at this moment.
"Go, A-Xian, A-Yao, Xue Yang, you all go with him."
"Forget-Me-Not, what about you?"
"The place I'm going to next is not suitable for you."
"No, I have to protect you." Wei Wuxian didn't want to leave, even though he knew Wangyou was very powerful.
"Go on, we'll meet at the City That Never Sleeps."
"Then I'll stay and cook for my second sister," Meng Yao said with a smile.
"Oh right, I almost forgot about the meal tickets." Wangyou smiled. And so, Wei Wuxian and Xue Yang followed Lan Zhan, while Wangyou and Meng Yao went to Dafan Mountain.
"Second sister, the people living on Mount Dafan are collateral relatives of the Wen family. What's there?" Meng Yao asked curiously.
"It's my intuition, my intuition tells me I have to go."
When the two arrived at Dafan Mountain, they found traces of yin energy there. However, the Wen clan members did not seem to be doing well. They inquired about some information and learned that there was a shrine to the Heavenly Maiden on the mountain.
Meng Yao and Wang You exchanged a glance and resolutely headed towards the Heavenly Maiden Shrine.
