Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother!
Chapter 548: Trouble flares up again

Chapter 548: Trouble flares up again

Although the master was Xiao Nian’s life predictor, seeing how respectfully Mu Fu and Chen Wanyu treated her, she should have known that the other’s identity was not ordinary.

But her return was related to Jun Lii, and she wondered if the other party wanted to learn the details out of good intentions or bad intentions?

Yan Yueqing dared not gamble and spoke officiously,

"I’m not going to lie to the master, I indeed went through a few chaotic years, during which what I did was completely inconsistent with my usual style. Looking back, my impression of those years is also vague... This feeling, I’m afraid, is like what Western medicine often calls a ’spiritual split,’ right? Although I don’t know if the other personality has disappeared or not, I indeed slept for a very long time before suddenly waking up. If the master wants to ask for details about my awakening... I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you."

Hong Fei, hearing her describe those years with a ’spiritual split,’ knew she was holding back.

But he wasn’t in a hurry and sincerely said, "I’m aware that my sudden visit, trying to pry into Miss Yan’s secrets, is indeed a bit too much. To be honest with you, I have a friend... who has had a similar experience to Miss Yan. However, while you seemed to have changed during those years, he has been in a deep slumber, like a vegetative person.

"I prayed to the Heavenly Dao, consulted countless divinations, and never thought that his fate would be exactly like Miss Yan’s, both suffering from a lack of Vital Qi. Later... I met my fellow Daoist Pudu and Senior Bai Shu from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, and we also analyzed and discussed if there was any way to save him... But until now, I have been unable to resolve the troubles of the Yan Family or to awaken my friend...

"I was thinking, if Miss Yan could return, would it be possible to find a way to awaken him with the information you provide? Of course, I understand your concerns. To alleviate Miss Yan’s worries, I am willing to swear by the Alliance Blood Pact that I will absolutely keep the secret and not harm anyone!"

Alliance Blood Pact?!

The tea cup in Yan Yueqing’s hand suddenly spilled.

In her mind, it seemed as if a voice echoed,

"Xiaoxing ah, those who understand their destiny value the cycle of cause and effect the most. Among them are powerful beings who, to protect the Heavenly Dao, have established a small alliance. Not only is the screening process for incoming members strict, but they also hold themselves to nearly harsh standards. Especially decades ago, to keep secrets, they devised something called the Alliance Blood Pact, using blood from one’s heart to form a matrix, binding themselves by it. If the terms of the pact are violated, it’s certain death and annihilation of the soul, which can be considered the most severe punishment..."

Yan Yueqing covered her forehead, struggling to remember, whose words were these?

But one thing she was clear about—the Alliance Blood Pact was definitely not something that could be promised lightly!

Only issues of great importance and with utmost seriousness would be bound by such a pact.

Yan Yueqing looked toward the master, "To Master Yu, is this friend that important to you?"

Hong Fei’s eyes momentarily widened, as if she had never expected someone to ask her this question.

"Important?" She looked towards the night sky, as if questioning herself.

After a long while, she began to speak slowly.

"When I first glimpsed the Heavenly Dao, I was arrogantly using my knowledge to randomly determine a person’s fate and death, causing him to be separated from his beloved, never to meet again... Yet when I hit rock bottom, only he reached out to help me... This kindness can never be repaid in a lifetime.

"I heard that he fell into a coma in search of a Secret Technique; logically, he should have woken up within three years at most. However, he has been in a coma for a full thirty years... If there’s a chance, I hope to help him wake up."

Yan Yueqing frowned deeply, "How does the master know that he wants to wake up?"

Hong Fei’s face turned pale, and she was silent for a long time.

"This is also something that our alliance has debated for decades..." she let out a long sigh, "Some believe that the soul body in a coma has perhaps reached the land of dreams, living happily and contently in another way, and that is why they cannot wake up..."

One part felt that once a person is dead, the light goes out, and the soul body is trapped, which prevents it from returning to the source. Coma is the very representation of a besieged consciousness! If left unchecked, the soul body could never return... Even if there is the slightest chance that even a tidbit of the soul body is trapped, efforts must be made to awaken the original body.

The dispute between the two sides lasted for years, and neither could persuade the other. Later, I witnessed many similar cases and never saw the soul body truly awaken. Miss Yan’s return is truly a stroke of fate. My only hope was to find some insights into awakening the soul body, not to pry into secrets... If Miss Yan is truly unwilling to speak, I won’t force the issue."

Yan Yueqing nodded, "I understand your intent, Master, but sadly, I really just had a very long dream before I gradually came to. When I first woke, I couldn’t even discern which side was the dream? How did I come back? What helped me? I have absolutely no memory of it..."

She left room for possibilities though, "If I can ever recall some of the process, I will spare no details."

Hong Fei opened his mouth, a look of bewilderment and yearning emerging in his eyes.

After a long while, he finally said dreamily, "Regardless of the outcome, I will make an Alliance Blood Pact and honor the promise to keep Miss Yan’s secrets."

The following day, after sending Master Hong away, Yan Yueqing temporarily set aside her work and spent a few days enjoying Chunyue City with Mu Nian.

Whenever she saw Nianbao’s innocent smile, she wondered—why would such a young child be missing a Soul Fragment?

Mu Nian took many instant photos, bringing them back, held up in his tender little hands.

"Here, brother, sister."

Yan Yueqing received the photos, her smile brimming with joy, "Nianbao is still thinking of brother and sister? That’s wonderful~"

After several leisurely days, just as they were preparing to leave, a new disturbance emerged from Xingyue.

The reason was simple—Xi Hongxia’s history of having multiple boyfriends was exposed.

Having a love life is a minor matter, and multiple relationships aren’t necessarily a big deal. However, society is often unfair to women, and any woman who has been in contact with many men will inevitably be branded with derogatory terms such as "slut" or "public bus," among others.

Especially since after being signed by Xingyue, Yan Yueqing had given Xi Hongxia an abundance of resources.

She even had a cameo as a mysterious character in a highly popular film starring Si Younian and Xue Yi.

The public is very demanding of celebrities, and as soon as they heard that Xi Hongxia’s history was "problematic," they immediately started slinging abuse under the influence of marketing accounts.

The trolls were one thing, but during her recent variety show appearance, someone threw a water bottle with stones at Xi Hongxia, striking her right in the left eye! She fainted on the spot.

Yan Yueqing was furious, and her expression remained grim as she headed to the hospital.

Ouyang Long drove in silence, not even daring to take a deep breath.

Most of the time, seeing President Yue’s gentle demeanor, who could imagine that when she is unprovoked yet awe-inspiring, it would feel as though a knife was pressing against one’s neck?!

After twenty minutes of agonizing drive, they arrived at the hospital, where Zhou Jue personally came forward to open the car door, "President Yue, the report is out. Xi Hongxia’s injury is not serious. It was just that the bottle hit her eye nerve, and the pressure from the impact temporarily cut off the blood supply, causing her to faint."

Yan Yueqing asked with a cold face, "Can we find out who threw it?"
