“I want to know who was behind this? Is it related to the capital?” Grandma Gu’s expression was serious.

As expected of the old madam of the Gu family. Even at this age, she was still quick-witted.

Lu Miao said directly, “Gu Shiyan should have already found out. If you want to know the specific situation, it’s better to ask him. ‘”‘

This matter was complicated and had a wide range of implications. It could not be explained clearly in a few words, so it was better to let Gu Shiyan explain.

“Okay, I know.”

Grandma Gu nodded and saw Lu Miao walking out.” Are you going back?” I’ll get the driver to send you.”

“No need. I still have something to deal with.”Lu Miao replied.

“I hope that my identity will not be made public for the time being.”

She was very satisfied with her current situation. If anyone needed her, they could look for Lin Bufan. He would filter out some unsuitable orders for her, and then she would decide whether to accept them or not.

Not only could she earn money, but she could also avoid unnecessary disturbances.

“Alright.” Grandma Gu agreed.

Knowing that she had left something in the front hall, Master Jiuhua led her to retrieve it.

He was curious about the relationship between the old lady and Lu Miao. “How did you come to know Master Mountain River?” he asked.

With a sigh, Grandma Gu replied, “She was the child who was engaged to

Shiyan from the Lu family before.”

“What?” Master Jiuhua was also astonished.

After searching for their savior for so long, they discovered that she was right there beside them?

After a moment of contemplation, he stroked his beard and exclaimed,

“Indeed, it is destined by fate. Mr Gu has a benefactor.”

He should have realized it earlier. The time when Ziwei Star entered the picture coincided with Gu Shiyan’s engagement and Lu Miao’s entry into the Gu family. However, Lu Miao’s abilities were too extraordinary, and she was too young, so everyone overlooked this possibility.

Grandma Gu spoke bitterly, “I disrupted his good marriage.”

She was filled with regret, wishing she could go back in time and give her past self a good slap. Initially, Lu Miao had no biases or grievances towards the Gu family, and she got along well with Gu Shiyan and his brothers, as well as Shen Qinghe.

It was her own arrogance and self-righteousness that ruined everything.

Master Jiuhua comforted her, “It’s not necessarily the case. If it is destined, and there is a deep connection between Master Mountain River and Mr Gu, it won’t be so easily severed.”

“I now only hope that Shiyan can safely overcome this calamity. As for anything else, I dare not ask for more,” sighed the old lady.

Meanwhile, Lu Miao and Lin Bufan went to the side courtyard together.

Taking the brush and ink prepared by Lin Bufan, Lu Miao glanced at the beam above her and estimated the height. Then, she raised one finger and motioned to Lin Bufan.

Immediately, Lin Bufan eagerly stepped forward, asking, “Master, what do you command?”

Lu Miao gestured for him to crouch down.

Although Lin Bufan didn’t understand, he obediently squatted in front of her.

Lu Miao raised her hand, and a thin thread shot out, wrapping around the house beam. Then, she kicked off his back with a forceful motion, leaped upwards, and tapped her toes on a nearby pillar twice before landing lightly on the beam directly above her head.

Lin Bufan was so astonished by her actions that he couldn’t help but curse,

“What the heck!”

He had thought his master was just a mage, but she turned out to be proficient in martial arts as well. Her skills were truly remarkable.

With her brush dancing like a dragon and snake, Lu Miao drew a symbol on the beams at the corners of each temple. Then, she gracefully leaped down in front of Lin Bufan.

Staring at Lu Miao, Lin Bufan’s eyes widened like copper bells, unblinking, anticipating her summoning another divine beast.

However, Lu Miao returned the brush and ink to him, dusting off her hands. “Alright, let’s go.”

Lin Bufan blinked. “That’s it? That’s all you did?”

Lu Miao raised an eyebrow slightly. “The most advanced seals often employ the simplest methods.”

Lin Bufan:

“What about this talisman?” he asked.

“Oh, that’s for you,” Lu Miao replied.

She took a needle from her acupuncture tools, gently pricked her fingertip, and then used her blood to draw a pattern on a piece of paper. After folding it neatly, she handed it to him.

“Your spiritual altar has just opened, and you don’t know much. To those wandering spirits, you’re like a cake emitting a fragrant aroma. Even if they don’t dare to do anything to you, they will be tempted to gather around you.

This talisman will protect you.”

“Hehe, thank you, Master!” Lin Bufan happily accepted the precious talisman.

After dealing with the matters at the City God Temple, Lu Miao took a taxi directly to the Xus’ villa.

The Three Pure Bells were still with Xu Xinran. Lu Miao hadn’t asked for them earlier because Xu Xinran had just learned the truth about the deaths of Xu Zhenzhen and her parents, and it was not the right time to bring up other matters.

Now that some time had passed, Xu Xinran’s emotions should have calmed down.

She needed the magic tools in a few days when she would break the formation, so she had to get them in advance.

The car stopped outside the villa, and Lu Miao got out and walked to the front door, pressing the doorbell.

She waited for a while, pressed it a few more times, but there was no response from inside the villa.

Just when Lu Miao thought Xu Xinran might not be at home and was preparing to come back another time, she finally heard hurried footsteps from inside the villa.

The door opened, and Xu Xinran’s figure appeared before her.

It seemed that without the medicine from Wen Yaoyang, her legs had fully recovered.

Seeing Lu Miao, Xu Xinran greeted her in surprise, “Master, why are you here?”

However, when Lu Miao saw her, her eyebrows involuntarily furrowed slightly.

Her complexion was pale, her expression haggard, and a dark mark appeared between her eyebrows.

The three life flames above her shoulders flickered unsteadily, as if they were on the verge of extinguishing.

However, when Lu Miao left the Xu family last time, although Xu Xinran was sad, her spirit was fine. Moreover, from her destiny chart, she was not someone destined to have a short life.

“I came to borrow something from you,” Lu Miao said.

“What do you want to borrow, Master?” Xu Xinran immediately asked.

However, she kept her body blocking the doorway, showing no intention of letting Lu Miao in.

Lu Miao narrowed her eyes and looked through the gap between Xu Xinran’s body and the door, scanning the courtyard behind her.

Vaguely, she could see a small garden not far from the entrance.

The bright red rose fruits had already fallen, leaving only green leaves rustling in the breeze.

Xu Xinran sensed her gaze and moved her body awkwardly to the side, closing the gap that was exposed.

“What do you want to borrow, Master?” she asked again.

Lu Miao didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, “The Three Pure Bells.”

“I don’t know what that is, Master. Are you mistaken? I don’t have it,” Xu Xinran replied.

Lu Miao also didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, “I’m talking about the bell that Zhenzhen wore around her neck.”

A trace of panic flashed in Xu Xinran’s eyes, and she bit her lip. “If you are talking about that bell, I put it together with Zhenzhen when she was buried. I’m sorry, Master, but I may not be able to lend it to you..”
