Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system-Chapter 276 - 265: Mysterious Plane 20

Lord Tian invited Daoist Master Qingfeng for his help, but he didn’t even know about the hidden matter, which led to the current situation.

Xia Xi looked at Lord Tian and said, "Has Lord Tian agreed to the conditions I proposed last night?"

Upon hearing this, Lord Tian’s face darkened. He really didn’t want his third son to have any more ties with that woman.

"Miss Xia, I think we can change the condition." Lord Tian tried to persuade Xia Xi to change her condition.

"Sorry, the main reason we came to Kyoto was for this matter." Xia Xi shook her head, looking resolute as she spoke to Lord Tian.

"Lord Tian, why don’t you ask your third son if he’s willing to cooperate with us? If he isn’t, we can change the condition. But if he is, then we won’t." Wen Ziyin cordially offered an alternative, not wanting to be too pushy.

"So you’re saying that if he doesn’t wish to cooperate with your investigation, you’ll agree to help hide his ghost-attracting aura?" Lord Tian questioned.

Xia Xi turned to look at Wen Ziyin. Wen Ziyin nodded at Xia Xi, confirming this.

"Yes, we won’t insist if he is unwilling." Xia Xi nodded in agreement.

"Wait here for a moment, I will have a chat with him." Sensing an opportunity, Lord Tian asked Xia Xi and Wen Ziyin to wait, then got up and took his third son aside for a chat.

"What is it that you two wish the third young master to cooperate on in your investigation?" Daoist Master Qingfeng curiously asked Xia Xi and Wen Ziyin.

"We’re investigating the Liyuan Fire incident three years ago, particularly about Qin Qi’s death." Xia Xi replied.

Upon hearing her words, a flash of surprise crossed Daoist Master Qingfeng’s eyes.

"My advice to you both is to not pry too deep into Qin Qi’s matter. It’s harmful." Daoist Master Qingfeng hesitated before finally advising.

"It seems you know something?" Xia Xi asked while looking at Daoist Master Qingfeng.

"You could say that. All the Celestial Masters in Kyoto have looked into it to various extents and even visited the old Liyuan, but none came back with good results. The lucky ones just got minor injuries, while the unlucky ones were gravely harmed." Daoist Master Qingfeng nodded seriously.

Hearing this, the color drained from the faces of the Tian family members. They had heard stories about the old Liyuan, but they never thought it could be this scary.

Xia Xi noted Qingfeng’s words in her mind and asked, "Did you meet them?"

"Yes, we did. But they were simply too strong for us." Daoist Master Qingfeng nodded.

"Did you hear what Qin Qi said about her master before?" Xia Xi continued asking.

"Master? You mean they weren’t gathered there by Qin Qi?" Daoist Master Qingfeng asked in surprise.

"It seems you don’t know. We visited the old Liyuan before and fought with her. When she was injured and escaping, she said, ’My master won’t let you off.’

Otherwise, a ghost that’s only three years old wouldn’t have such great power, even if she was a Fierce Ghost." Xia Xi explained.

"You’re saying you met Qiqi? You even injured her! What did you do to Qiqi? Why hurt her?" Lord Tian’s third son dashed over, shouting angrily at Xia Xi and Wen Ziyin.

"We only wanted to ask her some questions, not fight. They attacked first, we were just defending ourselves." Xia Xi watched the worried and angry Tian third son as she explained.
