The change in his gaze and surrounding aura happened too fast. It took Lan Ran half a beat to catch up.
The person who came out was…
Sheng Yang still looked at the two of them with her pale eyes and said softly, “It’s settled.”
“Tong Xieyi has been hypnotized?”
“Yeah.”
They entered the room together. Tong Xieyi sat on the chair without moving. A piece of paper was spread out in front of her with a word written on it.
[God.]
“Is this because she hasn’t completed her thought process?” Lan Ran asked.
Lan Ran was focused on the matter at hand, while Yi Juncheng’s peach blossom eyes were filled with only Sheng Yang. He kept staring at her.
Sheng Yang found it funny. She reached out and gently touched her face. “Didn’t you say you were confident in yourself?”
Was this considered a slap to his own face?
He pressed the back of her hand against his face and nuzzled it. He didn’t say anything. His eyes were so gentle that they were almost adorable.
Lan Ran coughed dryly. Despite what was happening in front of him, he still remembered the task at hand.
Sheng Yang nodded and explained, “I need some time.”
“Alright, let’s wait a little longer.”
For an hour, Tong Xieyi sat there, her eyes lifeless. She didn’t move or speak. She was like a statue. It was as if her mind had completely collapsed. This wasn’t Sheng Yang’s problem. The person who had previously hypnotized her had drugged her and abandoned her after using her. That was why there were such side effects.
When the bell in the room rang with the sound of a cuckoo reporting the time, Tong Xieyi moved. Her movements were very slow. She picked up a pen and wrote a word on the paper. [Qin.]
The three’s first thought was Tong Qin.
So, Tong Qin was the key clue to the mastermind?
No one had linked Tong Qin to the mastermind. After all, Tong Qin was still too young and did not look like she had that much strength.
“Tong Qin has been very close to Long Xian recently, and Long Xian is one of the Four Gods.” Lan Ran was almost certain. It seemed that the root of the matter was Long Xian. “I’ll go look for Tong Qin.”
Yi Juncheng looked at him. “I’ll send someone from the Hall of One Man’s Rule to support you.”
“You should go with Blue.” Sheng Yang looked at Yi Juncheng. “Long Xian isn’t a simple character.”
“Okay.” Yi Juncheng’s eyes met hers for a moment before he replied, “Okay.”
The two of them left one after another, leaving Tong Xieyi and Sheng Yang alone in the room. Tong Xieyi stood up first, and Sheng Yang followed her. The two of them walked out together.
After walking out of the teahouse, it didn’t take long before they entered a small alley. The alley was dark and damp. After passing through, it suddenly became bright and the air was much fresher. They didn’t expect to see the light of day.
There was a small house, and a person there was feeding chickens. He looked very young and good-looking, but this person looked a little familiar.
Sheng Yang recognized him immediately. He was one of the missing people whose portrait is hanging on the wall of Lanca Police Station.
Tong Xieyi looked at the man blankly. “Master, I’ve brought her to you.”
“Mhm,” the man replied. It was just a word, but it was a familiar voice.
He turned and looked at Sheng Yang with greed. This was the ultimate experiment subject he wanted the most.
Finally… this day had finally arrived.
Sheng Yang looked at him expressionlessly. There was no emotion in her eyes.
“Come here.” He waved at Sheng Yang, who obediently walked over. “Come, tell me where you came from. Why are you so powerful and different?”
This was clearly Long Xian’s voice, but the person was indeed someone who had gone missing previously.
