Chapter 846: Chapter 413 Jiang Wan Performing a Ritual

The legendary Snow Domain Divine Soldiers have such an origin.

Jiang Shouzhong lowered his gaze in thought for a moment, then lifted his eyes to look at Jiang Wan, and asked:

"Do you mean that the person from Taoyuan is currently hiding in the Ghost City? But how did he discover the location of the Ghost City?"

Jiang Wan shook her head slightly: "I’m not sure, perhaps he encountered some trouble in Taoyuan Holy Land and urgently needed to find the Undying Secret Technique of the Ghost King from back then."

"How do we find him, then?" Jiang Shouzhong asked.

Jiang Wan casually toyed with the little bottle in her hand: "I will use the captured Gu Worm to track him, but it will take some time."

Because the inn was very close to the City Lord Mansion, their conversation did not slow their steps, and before long they arrived at the inn’s entrance.

Jiang Shouzhong was initially worried that Little Jiangyi had already left, but he relaxed once he sensed the aura of the Cow Demon.

"Let me introduce you to an old friend."

Jiang Shouzhong said softly, leading Jiang Wan to the door of a room.

Upon opening the door, they saw Little Jiangyi holding a puppy, lazily lying on the table, yawning in boredom. Beneath the hem of her skirt, two slender legs swung back and forth, playfully charming.

"Daddy!"

The girl’s gaze inadvertently swept to Jiang Shouzhong at the door, and her slightly weary expression was instantly replaced with joy.

Little Jiangyi, like a cheerful little deer, lightly jumped off the table and threw herself into Jiang Shouzhong’s arms.

The puppy, which had been fed several dragon fruits by Jiang Shouzhong earlier, was now cleverly and eagerly crawling over, rubbing back and forth against Jiang Shouzhong’s legs, as if acting cute and pleasing.

Jiang Wan stood at the doorway, staring at that familiar yet young face, as if frozen in place.

At this point, Little Jiangyi also noticed the pretty girl standing outside the door.

Little Jiangyi’s bright eyes instantly flashed with a hint of vigilance, like a small beast guarding its food, she instinctively clung tightly to Jiang Shouzhong: "Daddy, who is she?"

Jiang Shouzhong closed the door and introduced: "She is called—"

"I am Jiang Erliang."

Jiang Wan slightly tilted her head, a playful hint crossing her composed face, and she smiled, saying, "I am your daddy’s maid."

Maid?

Little Jiangyi’s round eyes shifted back and forth between Jiang Shouzhong and Jiang Wan, her gaze harboring a bit of scrutiny and suspicion, as if catching them in the act.

She stared intently at Jiang Shouzhong, asking, "Really?"

"Uh...yes."

Although he didn’t know why Jiang Wan didn’t want to reveal her true identity, since she didn’t want to acknowledge her sister, Jiang Shouzhong didn’t bother to speak more.

"But you never mentioned it to me before."

Little Jiangyi was still full of suspicion, her gaze seemed to want to bore two holes through the two of them.

But at this moment, Little Jiangyi’s eyes suddenly fell on the candied haws, her beautiful eyes lit up with surprise and delight: "Candied haws! Daddy, did you buy these for me?"

Just as Little Jiangyi was about to reach out to take it, a slender, fair hand swiftly reached out like lightning, firmly grasping the stick of candied haws and snatched it away.

"What are you doing?"

Little Jiangyi’s eyebrows arched fiercely, her round eyes widened in anger at Jiang Wan, who had taken her candied haws.

Jiang Wan’s lips curled into a light smile: "I bought these."

"I don’t believe it."

Little Jiangyi was full of hostility towards this equally beautiful girl, she pouted and said angrily, "Even if you bought them, you’re my daddy’s maid, so naturally these things belong to my daddy."

"You can say as much as you want, but I won’t give them to you."

Jiang Wan gently shook her head, her face displaying an uncompromising expression.

"Daddy~~"

Little Jiangyi looked at Jiang Shouzhong with a pitiful expression, her eyes welling up with tears, as if a clear spring was about to overflow, fully displaying her helplessly charming appearance.

Jiang Shouzhong felt a headache coming on.

How could you, being an elder sister, finally meet your younger sister only to bully her like this?

Fortunately, Little Jiangyi was quite easy to coax. Jiang Shouzhong promised to tell a few stories, which made her smile through her tears and play quietly with the puppy beside, occasionally glaring at Jiang Wan.

After the three of them had dinner, Little Jiangyi perhaps got tired from all the playing, originally wanted to lay on the bed for a nap, but seeing Jiang Wan, she snuggled into Jiang Shouzhong’s arms and soon fell deeply asleep.

After Little Jiangyi fell asleep, Jiang Shouzhong lifted his gaze to Jiang Wan and asked softly, "Aren’t you curious why she turned out like this?"

"Because of the Nirvana Bone, of course."

Jiang Wan ordered a jar of wine from the innkeeper, glancing over Jiang Shouzhong: "No wonder you look a few years older. You’re quite the father."

Her words carried a hint of teasing and amusement.

Jiang Shouzhong coughed lightly, his expression odd: "It feels like you know everything."

Jiang Wan’s lips curled into a slight smile, yet her eyes held a truly enigmatic meaning.

She lightly beckoned with her slender finger towards Jiang Shouzhong, then, holding a jar of wine in one hand and the candied haws stick in the other, her figure like a swallow, she fluttered like a wisp of smoke out of the window, gracefully landing on the roof.

Jiang Shouzhong was about to place the sleeping Little Jiangyi back on the bed, but the little girl clung tightly to his clothes even in her sleep, her small hands grasping firmly.

Jiang Shouzhong had no choice and carefully held her as he used his Qinggong to make his way to the rooftop.

Looking at the girl in Jiang Shouzhong’s arms, Jiang Wan’s expression turned complex and indescribable, as if there was affection, yet also a hint of annoyance.

After a moment, she lightly sighed, raised her gaze to Jiang Shouzhong, her lips parting slightly, her words carrying a trace of gritted teeth meaning: "I really want to chop you into pieces!"
