Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Obsessed_1

You nodded slightly, secretly thinking that since Grandma hadn’t mentioned it, you’d find another opportunity to show it to her later.

In fact, speaking of it, your mastery of the Sen Luo Eye was still at the beginner stage, with many methods unknown to you, let alone another Magic Seal.

For now, to you, the other Magic Seal merely acted as an enhancement to the Sen Luo Eye when facing a formidable enemy. Besides that, you didn’t know how to use it.

Once you sat down, Grandma said to you, "Your mother mentioned that you’ve opened three of the Biochemistry Eight Gates?"

You nodded, "Specifically, the Scenic Sect, Gate of Life, and Death Gate."

Your mother obviously hadn’t made clear to Grandma which three gates you had unlocked. When Grandma heard you’d opened the Death Gate, her brow furrowed naturally, asking, "Death Gate? Among the Biochemistry Eight Gates, where does a Death Gate come from?"

Shrugging, you said with a smile, "My mom was also very surprised at first. But for me, this Death Gate is as good as nonexistent; I reckon it’ll never be opened."

Grandma thought for a moment but didn’t say much more. It seemed she had some reservations, so she didn’t elaborate.

"Since you’re going back to Putian with Grandma tomorrow, let’s take the next two or three days to teach you some uses of the Sen Luo Eye," she said.

"Great!" You clapped your hands in approval upon hearing this.

"All Forms of Sen Luo, everything in this world is included within the Sen Luo Eye. One could exhaust a lifetime’s effort and still not fully comprehend the Sen Luo Eye. Moreover, you must understand that any skill should always be improved upon—remember not to bite off more than you can chew," advised Grandma.

Seeing Grandma’s serious expression, you nodded earnestly, "Mm."

In the following two hours, Grandma kept on imparting the uses of the Sen Luo Eye she had mastered, and you learned some very practical techniques from her. However, there were some abilities that you still could not use. According to Grandma, your strength was still too weak.

If your strength were to be measured against the nine levels of "All Forms of Sen Luo", you were still only at the very peak of the "One Qi" stage, just a step away from "Two Instruments".

When you inquired about Grandma’s level, she just smiled and said nothing, eventually deflecting with a single sentence, "No matter how powerful a person is, they can’t overcome fate. Even if Grandma had the ability to reach the heavens, what use would it be? I can only watch helplessly as your grandpa and your father died before my eyes."

Afterward, you no longer discussed it. After Grandma went to sleep in her room, you sat on the couch for the entire night.

All night long, you pondered life, but in the end, you couldn’t come up with anything.

Seeing your deep dark circles, Grandma couldn’t help but laugh, "Silly boy, don’t overthink things. All you need to do in life is to follow your heart—that’s all that matters."

Her words struck a chord, and suddenly you felt your state of mind broaden in an instant.

Follow your heart, yes, just follow your heart!

Just as you were enjoying breakfast of soy milk and deep-fried dough sticks with Grandma on an old street in Yuhang, a black Mercedes-Benz car slowly came to a stop at the entrance of a villa by West Lake.

The Maid opened the door for the Young Marshall, who stepped out with restrained mirth on his lips. Then the other car door was opened by the Maid as well, and a middle-aged man with a goatee and wearing a clean Taoist robe got out, even politely thanking the Maid with a "Thank you".

The Young Marshall and the middle-aged Taoist shared a glance and smiled at each other.

Meanwhile, Xi Yu gently knocked on the door of Wu Qiyi’s loft room.

"I said not to disturb me unless I asked for you," came a voice.

The sunlight just happened to shine into the room from outside the window. Wu Qiyi, who had already washed up and eaten, was quietly reading a book. The sunlight highlighted half of her flawless face, giving her the radiant glow of a goddess.

"Miss, Young Master Xiao has just sent a message directly related to Master Li," Xi Yu said.

Upon hearing this, Wu Qiyi immediately stood up and said, "Come in and talk."

Xi Yu pushed open the wooden door, and closed it behind her with a backward push. She gave a respectful curtsy to Wu Qiyi and began, "According to Young Master Xiao, Master Li’s grandmother has arrived in Yuhang."

"Grandmother?" Wu Qiyi was taken aback, "Yun, he still has a grandmother alive?"

Xi Yu nodded, "According to Young Master Xiao, she is Master Li’s biological grandmother, and Young Master Xiao is also her adopted grandson."

"Where is Grandma Yunhe now?" Wu Qiyi’s heart suddenly became anxious, and before meeting the person, she directly referred to her Ah Ma as "Grandma."

"Master Li and the old lady are still having breakfast, and they have booked plane tickets for this morning at ten o’clock."

"Plane tickets? Where are they going?"

"According to Young Master Xiao, Master Li is planning to take the old lady back to Putian."

"Why such a hurry? Grandma just arrived yesterday, and now she’s going back today?"

"Hmm, Young Master Xiao did not specify the reason."

After hearing this, Wu Qiyi quickly walked to the mirror, and the usually undecorated her suddenly began paying attention to her appearance, "Xi Yu, get ready immediately, I must see Grandma."

"Yes."

Xi Yu had just stood up when a maid stood outside the door, gently knocking.

Xi Yu turned her head and asked, "What’s the matter?"

"The old madam has asked Miss to go to the reception room. She says there is an honored guest."

Wu Qiyi sneered coldly, "Just say I’m not available."

The maid said with some difficulty, "The old madam said to make sure Miss goes there, otherwise the old madam will come to invite you personally."

"Tsk!"

Wu Qiyi’s eyebrows furrowed in visible annoyance.

Without waiting for Wu Qiyi to speak, Xi Yu said to the maid, "Go tell the old madam, Miss is going to meet someone even more important, please ask the guest to wait a moment."

"Yes." The maid turned around and left.

Wu Qiyi quickly walked to Xi Yu and said, "You stay here to deal with them, I’ll be back soon!"

"Hmm."

Xi Yu smiled and nodded.

"Mr. Liang, I entrust this matter to you."

"Please rest assured, old madam, I will do my utmost to rid Miss of the Ghost Art," the Taoist surnamed Liang promised emphatically.

The three were talking in the living room when the maid sent by Grandmother Wu Qiyu to call Wu Qiyi came in.

Seeing no one beside her, Grandmother Wu Qiyu couldn’t help but frown and asked, "Where is Miss?"

"Old madam, Miss said she has to meet someone more important and asked the guests to wait for a short while," the maid conveyed Xi Yu’s words exactly.

"Outrageous!"

Grandmother Wu Qiyu slammed the table and burst out, "That girl must be possessed by a demon!"

Mr. Liang addressed Grandmother Wu Qiyu respectfully, "Please, old madam, do not be anxious. Even though the person who cast the Ghost Art may have strong Ghost Power, I remain confident we can break the Ghost Art. However, we must act sooner rather than later, as we do not know if the caster has left any other contingencies."

Grandmother Wu Qiyu nodded, "What the Taoist Priest says is very true! Come, I will take you to see that girl now!"
