Chapter 91: Chapter 91 The Old Lady Seems to Have Changed into a Different Person

Shen Cong’s whole body trembled, the secret buried deep in his heart was like a fragile core, mercilessly peeled away layer by layer, revealing the most brutal truth inside.

As the words fell, Tang Qing suddenly transformed into a green-faced beast, growing sharp teeth, giant claws, and muscles bulging like hills.

He furiously opened his mouth towards Shen Cong, spewing a foul and rank breath.

The roar echoed through the heavens and earth.

"Ah—" Shen Cong suddenly sat up, the bamboo chair shaking violently, emitting a creaking sound.

It was just a dream!

Shen Cong wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Thankfully, it was just a dream.

The events that have happened can never be undone, but—

As long as time keeps silent, the truth will forever remain unknown.

He would be revered as the Great Xuan Master till the end.

"Dad..."

His son Shen Heying hurried to him, "Did you have a nightmare?"

"Yes, it’s nothing."

Shen Cong picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He asked in a deep voice, "What’s the matter?"

"About Uncle Tang Qing, I inquired and found out that the Beijing 49th Bureau Headquarters has sent people here, saying they want to investigate this matter, and the body won’t be handed over to us for now."

"I see."

Tang Qing had no parents or any relatives. His name was still on the Three Pure Ones Temple’s disciple roster.

And since Shen Cong was once the senior disciple of the Three Pure Ones Temple, Tang Qing’s remains and affairs should be handled by him.

"It’s alright, once they finish investigating, they will hand over the body to us. Your Uncle was unfortunate in this life, struck down by Heavenly Thunder. When the body is handed over to us, you give him a grand funeral."

"Don’t worry, Dad, your son will do that."

Although Shen Heying found his father strange, he still obediently agreed.

By evening, Old Mrs. Yun entirely changed her previous indifference towards Yun Qi and became enthusiastic.

Especially during dinner, Yun Qi sat on the left side of the Old Master, her small legs dangling.

A table full of dishes was laid out before her.

Old Mrs. Yun asked flatteringly, "Qi, which one do you want to eat? Grandma will pick it for you."

Yun Qi was stunned.

Huh? Why is grandma so enthusiastic?

And would even offer to pick food for me!

Could it be she just discovered Qi’s cuteness?

Yun Qi blinked her big eyes, suppressing the confusion in them, and pointed to the crystal shrimp dumplings.

"Alright, our little Qi likes to eat crystal shrimp dumplings, grandma will get you more."

Saying that, she really placed a few shrimp dumplings on Yun Qi’s plate.

Yun Qi picked up the crystal shrimp dumplings with her own chopsticks and put them into her mouth, causing her childish voice to become muffled.

"Thank you, grandma."

Old Mrs. Yun squinted her eyes, smilingly watching her eat.

Mr. Yun and Yun Qiuce were dumbfounded.

[What’s wrong with your mom?] the Old Master mouthed.

[I don’t know.]

Yun Qiuce mouthed back.

Old Mrs. Yun, satisfied seeing Yun Qi eat several crystal shrimp dumplings, finally placed her chopsticks on the plate, sat upright, and glared at the two beside her.

"What? Can’t I spoil Qi?" she said, seriously.

"Yes, you can."

Mr. Yun and Yun Qiuce quickly answered with cheerful smiles.

Yun Kuang also mumbled softly:

"See, I told you grandma would like Qi, you all were so nervous..."

The mischievous uncle sitting next to him lightly smacked the back of his head.

The dining room was filled with a joyful and relaxed atmosphere.

Yun Qi, however, tilted her head, her big eyes fixedly staring at Old Mrs. Yun.

Her long eyelashes fluttering occasionally.

Old Mrs. Yun melted at her adorable appearance, reaching out to tap on her chubby baby fat.

"Why is Qi staring at grandma like that?"

"Nothing."

Yun Qi withdrew her gaze, picked up her bowl, and began eating in big bites.

Although something felt amiss, filling her stomach seemed more important.

"Grandpa, I want to keep Xiao Bai in my room," after dinner, Yun Qi clung to the Old Master’s knee, starting to act spoiled.

The Old Master’s face darkened.

"No, all small animals carry bacteria, and this fox has dubious origins, it’s probably not just any ordinary fox, I think it’s best to release it."

"No, no."

Yun Qi tugged at the Old Master’s hand, acting spoiled.

Her childish voice switched from being sweet and clear, becoming sticky and trembling slightly at the end, thoroughly conveying her intention to act spoiled.

The Old Master couldn’t withstand this strategy, reluctantly resisted for half a minute before finally surrendering.

"Alright, alright, whatever little Qi says, but foxes have a smell, over time your room and you will have that smell too, then no friends will want to play with you. So you can keep it, but you can’t bring it into your room."

Yun Qi held the Old Master’s hand, tilted her head for serious consideration for a while, then heavily nodded.

"Alright, Qi will listen."

The Old Master chuckled and played five-in-a-row with Qi.

On the side, Old Mrs. Yun held a folding fan, helping Qi shoo away mosquitoes every now and then.

The scene was harmonious.

Finally, at bedtime, Qi took a bath and changed clothes, lying in bed.

This time it was Old Mrs. Yun who coaxed her to sleep, wearing reading glasses, holding a picture book, her deep and kind voice finished telling a story.

Qi cooperatively yawned.

Old Mrs. Yun was affected by the yawn, feeling sleepy.

"Is Qi sleepy? Let’s turn off the lights and sleep."

Qi was eager for this, pulling the blanket over her chest, revealing her chubby little face and big eyes.

"Mm, goodnight grandma."

"Goodnight Qi."

Old Mrs. Yun reached out to rub her head, turned off the light, and left the room.

After about half an hour, confirming no one would come in.

Qi crawled out of bed and opened the window.

A white fox jumped in from outside the window.

"In just half a day, that old lady has completely changed, faster than us fox spirits change faces." Hu Qiansui transformed into human form.

A handsome and exquisite man, exuding an enchanting aura.

Lazily sitting on Qi’s child’s sofa, pressing it down till it squeaked.

"I also find it strange, grandma wasn’t so close to me before, she seemed always afraid of me."

Her face stern, almost able to squeeze out water, the four or five-year-old had something on their mind, seriously frowning and thinking.

Suddenly.

A pair of slender, fair hands quickly grabbed both sides of her chubby cheeks and seriously tugged them.

Making her cute little face distorted.

"Ah!" Qi realized she was being ambushed, angrily trying to slap his hands.

But missed.

Hu Qiansui pulled back his hand in time, revealing a satisfied fox smile for his prank’s success.

"Ah, these chubby cheeks still feel so good."

Having tugged on the chubby cheeks, feeling satisfied, he then collected his earlier unseriousness, seriously saying:

"Starting from this afternoon, your grandma and you have developed a mysterious connection, she’s been given a talisman, capable of absorbing all the Evil Qi from you."

Yun Qi nodded, her dark eyes appearing misty.

"She believes I am the reincarnation of an Evil Star, but unable to persuade grandpa to send me away, she chose a sacrificial approach, that is, to act as a shield for the family and absorb my Evil Qi, diverting any possible misfortunes destined for others onto herself."

Qi helplessly spread her hands.

Sounds noble, but I am not the reincarnation of an Evil Star.

She’s mistakenly being noble!
