Seeing this flower bud, Si Yun stood up from the futon. He could no longer maintain his composure. He stared at Shen Yijia’s torehead with burning eyes.

“She’s really…”

He didn’t finish his sentence, but how could Ji Yunxi not understand what he meant?

“No, she’s indeed born to Madam Shen.” Ji Yunxi said mockingly, “Father, do you remember the missing bamboo slip in the forbidden technique? Although I haven’t seen the contents of it, it has something to do with this unforeseen event.”

She paused for a moment and continued, “If I’m not wrong, that woman must have sacrificed her inheritance to deceive us.”

It had to be known that everything in the world was predestined. Even if Madam Shen’s fate changed with the help of an expert, people who shouldn’t exist would be killed sooner or later.

Not only would they not be able to survive in this world, but the people who interfered would also pay the corresponding price, such as the early death of Madam Shen.

That woman clearly Imew this and took this opportunity to let her daughter escape her fate and survive, making her a variable in this world.

It was precisely because of this that Shen Yijia could easily change the fate of the people she came into contact with. Moreover, she was completely unaffected.

In other words, everyone’s names were on the Book of Life and Death. The original Shen Yijia had long followed the will of the heavens, so her name would no longer be on the Book of Life and Death. The person who was alive now naturally did not have to abide by these rules anymore.

Thinking of this, Ji Yunxi’s eyes lit up. If she knew how that woman did it back then, did it mean that the path to immortality was no longer a delusion?

Si Yun clearly thought of this too. Her eyes revealed the same madness as Ji

Yunxi’s. He suddenly laughed. “Good, as expected of my daughter.”

“Father.” Ji Yunxi glanced at the flower bud on Shen Yijia’s forehead and smiled. “The most important thing now is to get First Elder and Third Elder to agree to let me take over the position of Valley Master. Only then will they not go against Father again.”

There had always been five elders in the Valley of Heavenly Secrets. After the elders of the incense-making defected, there were only four left.

Among them, the First Elder and the Third Elder had always objected to Si Yun’s insistence on making Ji Yunxi the successor without following the clan rules.

Speaking of the two old farts who always disagreed with him, Si Yun narrowed his eyes. “What do you want to do?”

Ji Yunxi revealed a strange smile and brushed Shen Yijia’s flower bud. “Of course it’s… a spirit exchange.”

Spirit exchange!

Si Yun was stunned. He naturally knew that this was one of the most vicious forbidden techniques in the valley.

He needed to sacrifice the hearts of 81 children to the heavens and transfer all the blood of the person with the inheritance to another person. That person would have the power of the inheritance.

This secret technique was not groundless. It was recorded in the ancient books that there was once a woman in the Valley of Heavenly Secrets who did not follow the clan rules and secretly had an affair with outsiders. She did not protect the continuation of the inheritance, so the Valley of Heavenly Secrets used this secret technique to deal with her.

Back then, he had tried all means to capture Ji Luo with this intention. Unexpectedly, Ji Luo had already lost the ability and became a useless chess piece.

He looked at Shen Yijia’s familiar face and seemed to see Ji Luo, who was once in the valley. His eyes darkened and he said in a low voice, “We’ll do as you say.”

He turned around and looked straight at the portrait of his ancestor in front of him. “I’ll prepare everything in three days. Take her back first.”

Ji Yunxi smiled. “Yes.”

Before leaving, she got someone to bring a veil to cover Shen Yijia from head to toe before bringing her back to her residence.

All along, she had been acting as the successor, so she naturally could not let others see the flower bud on Shen Yijia’s forehead.

Shen Yijia stood rooted to the ground like a marionette. Ji Yunxi lowered her head and let her go. She was extremely obedient.

The Valley Master usually lived on the observatory at the top of the mountain, while the Young Master lived in a small courtyard below the observatory.

The afterglow of the sunset.

MO Yu was waiting at the entrance of the small courtyard. When he saw her return, he went forward and said, “Young Master, Madam is here.”

Ji Yunxi looked up at the white-robed maidservants in the courtyard and said indifferently, “Got it.”

Before Madam Ji married Si Yun, she was a maidservant by Ji Luo’s side. Because she was extremely talented in divination and grew up with Ji Luo, she was given the surname Ji.

Later on, she was chosen by the Elders to marry Si Yun, so everyone called her Madam Ji. She actually did not have much power in the valley.

Ji Yunxi did not have much feelings for her.

She pushed open the door and saw a woman sitting by the window. When she heard the commotion, she turned around. “Yunxi, you’re back.”

Although she was talking to Ji Yunxi, her eyes landed on Shen Yijia, who had followed Ji Yunxi in and was covered by a veil.

“Mother.” Ji Yunxi took a step forward and shielded Shen Yijia behind her.

She Imew how much Madam Ji hated Ji Luo. If she saw Shen Yijia’s face, she did not know what she would do.

However, Shen Yijia was useful to her now. She could not let anything happen to her for the time being.

Madam Ji saw her actions and her expression changed slightly. She sneered. “I heard that you brought back an outsider woman. Why? Can’t I see her?”

She stood up and walked towards Ji Yunxi unhurriedly. “Your father doesn’t want me to kill that woman because she looks like that woman. Are you going to protect her too?”

Ji Yunxi frowned. It seemed that when she brought Shen Yijia to the priest hall just now, she had already been seen by the people around Madam Ji.

She was wondering if she should tell the truth.

Madam Ji quickly walked around her and lifted the curtain above Shen Yijia’s head.

The veil fell to the ground, revealing Shen Yijia’s exquisite face.

If Shen Yijia, who had hidden the flower bud, looked like Ji Luo, then she looked even more like Ji Luo now that the flower bud was revealed.

At a glance, two figures overlapped.

Madam Ji was so frightened that she took a step back. She pointed at her and exclaimed with trembling hands, “Ji… Ji Luo…”

Ji Yunxi went forward and helped her sit down. She said coldly, “Mother, sit down first. I’ll explain to you later.”

With that, she picked up the veil and put it on Shen Yijia again. She called MO Yu to bring her to an empty room at the back of the courtyard.

There was not a single lamp in the room. Shen Yijia listened to the instructions and lay down on the couch, looking at the beam without blinking.

The door closed, and everything fell into complete darkness..
