Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Unspeakable Secrets

The man in black led us into the cabin and took the elevator to the ninth level where the luxurious cabins were located.

If you ignore the sea view outside, the interior of the ship is identical to a hotel on land.

The corridor had soft carpets, gentle lighting, and even the scent of flowers in the air.

The man in black led us to the door of room 1909 and knocked respectfully a few times.

I glanced at Bi Shi, wondering if she was as slightly apprehensive as I was.

I hoped not to meet an ’old acquaintance’ again, preferring that the person behind the door was just a descendant of the same clan.

Because every time I met an old acquaintance, unpleasant things would happen, and it was particularly troublesome.

But Bi Shi’s eyes were vacant, lost in thought, unaware where her mind had wandered.

The moment the door opened, my gaze shifted forward, but it was a man who opened the door, much to my disappointment.

"Please come in, the leader has been waiting for you for a long time." As soon as the man spoke, I nearly burst out laughing.

For some reason, whenever I heard the title ’leader’, I wanted to laugh; it inexplicably struck my funny bone.

I quickly pressed my lips, calming the tremor in my throat, and followed the man in black into the room.

I walked behind Bi Shi, with Chen Qinghan beside me, and another man in black bringing up the rear.

Once we were all inside, the man in black automatically stood guard by the door, maintaining a standard bodyguard posture.

The room was luxuriously decorated, predominantly in warm tones; it was a suite with a living room. Upon entering, you were in the living room, with a sectional sofa in front of the window, and outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, there was a balcony.

On the beige sofa sat someone, and the moment I saw that face, a sudden pain shot through my head.

It was actually a face aged with loose skin and full of wrinkles, looking as if it were hundreds of years old.

Her hair was white as snow, her eyelids drooped, yet she was wearing a black camisole and a white short skirt.

The old lady dressed like a young girl turned and smiled at Bi Shi, sending shivers through me.

It was a smile brimming with allure, as if the person before her was her lover.

I edged closer to Chen Qinghan, trying to minimize my presence.

This old lady was a bit eerie, almost like a pervert; I couldn’t see Bi Shi’s face, but I bet she was just as dumbfounded.

"Lord Priest, Bi, we meet again." The old lady’s voice was soft, as if she eagerly anticipated this meeting.

"So it’s you, I was wondering who it was; a crippled person like you thinks you can rise again?" From Bi Shi’s tone, she knew this old lady.

I thought to myself, oh no, a real old acquaintance? Doesn’t that mean she might recognize me too?

"Hope is always there; as long as you and them aren’t dead, how could I give up?" The old lady watched Bi Shi intently as she spoke, her gaze full of affection, yet her words carried a deeper meaning.

"You seek me out, thinking I would help you?" Bi Shi’s demeanor and aura shifted as she faced this old lady, as if she were back to her cool self in my memory.

"You won’t help me, you’ll help yourself. Our opportunity has come, a once-in-a-lifetime chance!"

"What opportunity?"

"It’s coming."

"Oh? When?"

"That’s confidential!"

As they exchanged words, I was utterly confused, about something coming, was it her period? And confidential!

"What do you plan to do?" Bi Shi got straight to the point, without any nonsense.

"Someone is going to disrupt my plan; I need you to help eliminate them."

"It seems, during your self-duplication, you lost some memory. I’m not that capable."

"Excessive modesty is equivalent to arrogance. Besides her... your ability is the greatest. Helping me remove those in my way benefits you too, right?"

"I can help you, but you know, things aren’t what they used to be; it’s better to act discreetly now."

"I’ve been very discreet, never resorting to violence when it’s a problem money can solve."

Upon hearing her wealthy statement, I felt a pang of envy; who was she exactly to be so affluent, has she heard of robbing the rich to give to poor?

"And these two are...?" Finally, the old lady gave me and Chen Qinghan some attention, staring intently at me for a few seconds, her forehead wrinkles rising as if she was trying to remember.

"She’s my successor, and this one is her slave," Bi Shi introduced first.

"Oh~ I see why she feels somewhat... familiar, she has inherited Lord Priest’s bloodline."

I really wanted to kick her from behind; successor, inheriting bloodline, doesn’t that mean I’m considered her daughter?

Moreover, I’ve said it countless times, Chen Qinghan is my colleague; the era of slavery society has long ended!

"Today you rest first; I’ll explain the plan to you in detail later." The old lady got up and approached to take Bi Shi’s hand, but the latter avoided it first.

The old lady sighed, "Indeed, I’ve become old and unattractive, no charm anymore."

The gossip inside me was having a wild time, was there some unspeakable secret between these two?

Bi Shi snorted, wearing a particularly cool, indifferent expression, uninterested in exchanging useless words with her.

The old lady had the men in black escort us to the rooms she arranged, actually just next door; Chen Qinghan and I shared one, and Bi Shi had one to herself.

Once out the door, I couldn’t help but show a gossiping smile, winking at Bi Shi, "Hey? An old flame, eh? Tsk tsk~"

"She was imprisoned for seventy years for harassing clan members. It was a serious crime, yet she’s incorrigible. She endured hardships for that person."

"Tsk tsk, what person? I think it’s you; a hint of romance, huh, ha ha~" I gleefully patted her shoulder.

Bi Shi had a world-weary look, expressionless she was particularly cool, and she was tall, about five foot nine, and if you looked closely, had a bit of handsomeness.

"Me? Ha, should I go back in and tell her who you are? She made herself look like this, finally waiting for the person she was waiting for, she must be thrilled."

"What do you mean? What does it have to do with me!"

"Ha, why don’t you recall it yourself." Bi Shi left me with a mysterious smile.

I didn’t know why, but I rushed back to the room as quickly as possible, bolting the door, leaving Chen Qinghan, who had entered first, puzzled by my exaggerated actions.

"What’s wrong?" Chen Qinghan walked over, looking puzzled.

"Huh? Huh huh?" I knocked my head, suddenly jolted, realizing I hadn’t paid attention to the old lady’s voice earlier, now it struck me as somewhat like the voice of the arguing adversary in a dream."

Chen Qinghan grabbed my wrist, asking with concern, "Is it a headache?"

"No, it’s far worse, I think I’ve met an old nemesis!"

"Who?"

"That old lady just now, I might know her."

This thing sounds ridiculous when said out loud, if I really had some past grudges with the old lady, meeting now and not recognizing each other would be quite lamentable.
