Chapter 236: Chapter 233 I Have Been Alone in the Empty Room for Thirteen Days!
The master retracted his imposing aura and let out a cold laugh.
"I changed your fate to lead you to this day for our cooperation. You should understand that I can grant you immense wealth and power, or I can make you lose everything."
Lu Tingming had risen from a student of a poor family to his current status not solely due to the Xu Family’s support. The Xu Family merely added splendor to what already existed.
His original Fate Diagram did not destine him for the nobility—achieving university admission in that era could at best change poverty, allowing one to enter the middle class.
But someone had altered his fate, enabling him to encounter one influential person after another. Such mysterious and profound Qi Fortune skyrocketed Lu Tingming’s career to soaring heights.
And naturally, changing his fate came at a price.
This master was willing to alter his fate to cultivate him as a helper in his endeavors.
The two returned to the luxurious mansion of the Lu Family, and soon the master discovered that the soul had escaped the garden.
"The girl’s soul is missing, who touched this place?"
The master pointed at the bellflowers.
"The police came for a search last time, rummaged through there, and found many broken bones."
"Even if they found broken bones, they could not have released the soul." The master frowned and said again, "That person must be quite capable. You all should be more cautious recently."
At this moment, Xu Biqing returned.
Xu Biqing said to the master, "Can you divine for my brother? He has been harmed so badly, but remembers nothing. We want to find the person who hurt him."
"I can unconditionally protect the Lu Family, but I have no obligation to care for others."
The master said with an indifferent expression.
Xu Biqing cast a pleading look toward Lu Tingming.
Lu Tingming clenched his teeth and said, "I can offer you a few more people, which will surely benefit your cultivation considerably. I hope you can help my brother-in-law."
The master thought for a while before nodding in agreement.
"Alright, take me to see him."
Lu Tingming and Xu Biqing were overjoyed at his response, and quickly took the master to the hospital.
But things didn’t go as smoothly as they had imagined because the master couldn’t figure anything out.
Not only that, but the master also felt unwell in his spirit, receiving a backlash from divination.
Qin Zhao’s soul was stronger than his, so naturally, trying to divine Qin Zhao’s affairs would lead to a backlash.
The Lu Tingming couple from the Xu Family had not expected such a powerful master to be unable to find clues about the matter, and everyone’s expressions showed deep concern.
They were even more cautious when leaving the house lately, fearing that the adversary would target their family again.

After Qin Zhao and Chu Yan returned to Imperial City, Chu Yan dove into work at the hospital and their company, while Qin Zhao stayed home refining the Soul Reviving Pill, hoping to resurrect the Sheep God as soon as possible.
Last time, at Master Jing Hui’s tomb, Qin Zhao had also obtained a good Alchemy Furnace, better than the one she had forged herself, so she quickly produced the Soul Reviving Pill.
She fed the Soul Reviving Pill to the small sheep’s corpse and then guided its soul into the body.
Before long, the tiny body began to breathe.
Its body was very weak and needed time to recuperate in the Contract Space, so Chu Yan drew it back inside.
After the resurrection of the small sheep, Chu Yan felt his power grow stronger. If he knew about cultivation, he would realize that he was about to level up.
A period of tranquility passed, and the only conflict they had was at night.
Chu Yan always tried to stealthily climb into Qin Zhao’s bed, only to be ruthlessly thrown out. Powerless to retaliate, an immobilization charm left him unable to move.
One morning, Chu Yan noticed Qin Zhao dressed beautifully and ready to go out.
He stared at the slit of her dress, at the long, slender legs exposed, the skin so fair. He couldn’t help but recall the delicate touch, wanting to stitch her dress closed.
"What are you doing?"
Chu Yan stepped forward and tugged at her skirt hem, "You’re not allowed to wear that dress."
"There’s a charity auction evening at the company."
Chu Yan held onto the hem, realizing it couldn’t cover her long legs, he suddenly leaned forward, pushing her down onto the sofa, his ice-cold hand gripping her calf.
The feel of her skin darkened his eyes, and he unconsciously bent her leg forward.
His voice was a bit husky, "Qin Zhao, it’s been thirteen days since we last shared a bed. I have been alone in my room for thirteen days!"
Chu Yan emphasized the number thirteen, showing how excruciatingly he had been counting the days, yet she showed not the slightest sympathy for him!
His hand on her calf tightened, growing hotter and hotter.
Qin Zhao’s ears quickly reddened and her expression changed slightly, "That time was an accident! I have to go out, get up, don’t mess around here!"
"I don’t want to, let me give you a kiss."
Qin Zhao shifted her long legs and with a firm push against his chest, pushed him away.
Chu Yan rolled off the couch, his long, dark lashes drooping slightly, hiding the darkness in his eyes.
He suddenly said, "One day, eventually,"
"One day, eventually what?"
He raised his handsome and noble face, looking innocent, his lips curved into a faint smile, and the shadow in his eyes seemed to have disappeared.
He said very obediently, "Nothing much, I just wanted to say, I hope that one day you will fully accept me."
But that was not what he was thinking; he was thinking that one day, he would do whatever he wanted.
If Qin Zhao dared to hit him, he would tie her up and make her cry.
"You don’t seem to be thinking that."
Qin Zhao scoffed; when she saw Chu Yan put on this show of obedience, she knew he must be harboring some mischievous thoughts.
"How could that be?"
Chu Yan stood up and straightened his clothes.
"Wait for me a moment, I’ll go with you to the charity auction evening," he said, and, fearing Qin Zhao would refuse, added, "I’ll pay for you."
Qin Zhao didn’t want to go with him initially; this was a company event after all. What business was it of spouses?
But Chu Yan said he would pay, and Qin Zhao hesitated and actually waited for him.
The entertainment company’s charity auction was filled with handsome men and beautiful women and had invited many young scions of prominent and influential families. The company hoped to use this opportunity to help the artists expand their networks.
Upon entering the venue, Qin Zhao’s brows knitted together.
Her gaze swept over all the spots in the hall, then fixed on the bulletproof glass cases covered with red cloth, containing the grand finale items of the auction.
It was said they were all valuable pieces of jewelry, with starting bids no less than eight million!
"What’s wrong?" Chu Yan asked, noting her change in complexion.
He stood unwaveringly by Qin Zhao’s side; when they had entered, many predatory gazes had fallen upon her.
But upon seeing Chu Yan, they withdrew their eyes.
Chu Yan was very aware of what most men were thinking at a party where beautiful women and wealthy families gathered, so accompanying Qin Zhao helped her avoid a lot of trouble.
"I feel an unusual presence, somewhat like a ghost’s aura, but it’s very faint, and I haven’t seen any souls here."
"Could there be something wrong with those jewelry pieces?"
Most of today’s auction items were jewelry.
"I don’t know; we’ll see when the time comes."
