Chapter 207 - Yunwei Strikes Back (1/2)
Ah Bai snuggled into Yan Tianhen’s arms and stretched out his tongue to lick his wrist.

Hu Po, who had always been very prideful, trotted over slowly, jumped on Yan Tianhen’s thighs, and rubbed his head against Yan Tianhen’s chest.
“Anyways, you still have Ah Bai and Hu Po!”
Lin Xuanzhi had noticed that Yan Tianhen was acting strange, but Yan Tianhen’s mouth was like a clamshell that couldn’t be opened no matter how he tried. He didn’t want to force Yan Tianhen to do something he didn’t want to do either, so he went back to his room, took out a Voice Transmission Bell, and lightly shook it a few times. Very soon, a slight ringing sound could be heard from a distance.
“Xuanzhi.” The other side’s voice contained traces of a smile as it continued, “You left not long ago, yet you want to talk to me again?”
Lin Xuanzhi ignored the other party’s teasingly ambiguous tone and replied, “I want to ask you to help me investigate something.”
Bai Yichen was slightly surprised. “You rarely ever take the initiative to speak, what do you want to investigate?”
Lin Xuanzhi’s eyes were slightly cold. “Check who has gone to the falling flower forest outside Yudai Mountain today.”

“Okay.” Bai Yichen readily agreed and didn’t ask why Lin Xuanzhi wanted him to investigate this. He only said, “I haven’t paid you yet for the two cups you brought me.”
Lin Xuanzhi lightly responded, “Then just keep on owing for now.”
“I dare not owe you this. Your favors aren’t something that can be repaid with money.”
“Then pay it back with a favor.”
Bai Yichen chuckled, “I thought you’d say I have to pay it back by devoting my heart to you.”
Lin Xuanzhi found that Bai Yichen was always stirring him up, and his words always developed in a very ambiguous direction. Of course, Lin Xuanzhi didn’t believe that Bai Yichen really took a fancy to him and wanted to have some great development with him.
“Huangfu Jin really is pitiful.” Lin Xuanzhi spoke bluntly.
“What’s to pity? At least he still has a senior martial brother with him. I, however, am a lonely soul through and through.”
“You don’t have to be such a lonely person either.” Lin Xuanzhi continued, “Huangfu Jin hangs onto every word you say and is devoted to you, why do you not consider him?”
“Because the person he trusts wholeheartedly and holds deep affection towards isn’t me.” Bai Yichen smiled. “You only know that Leng Jixue is one of my split souls, but you don’t know that he and I are in actuality two different people. Leng Jixue has all of my kindness and compassion. Even the Dao of Heaven is reluctant to strike against such a person, but I — I am a person who is cursed by the Dao of Heaven.”

Lin Xuanzhi paused. “Have you ever wondered what would happen to Huangfu Jin if, one day, Leng Jixue was no longer in the world?”

If Bai Yichen wanted to continue living and break the Dao of Heaven’s curse, then he would surely have to collect that soul fragment within Leng Jixue’s body one day and once again merge it with his own soul. As a result, Leng Jixue would naturally disappear from this world.

“Xuanzhi, are you concerned about me or about Huangfu Jin?” Bai Yichen asked.
“It’s merely a matter of repaying karma.” Lin Xuanzhi lightly replied.
In his previous life, he should have killed Huangfu Jin to avenge Yan Tianhen, but afterward, Huangfu Jin tormented himself into such a pathetic state that death would have been more merciful, so Lin Xuanzhi refused to dirty his hands any further.
In this lifetime, he didn’t really intend to deal with Huangfu Jin with his own hands.
He owed Bai Yichen karma and also took advantage of Bai Yichen’s great grace in his past life. Without this person, he wouldn’t have had the opportunity to recuperate in the soul plate and become a craftsman, not to mention repairing the Revert World Mirror and letting everything return to its starting point.
Since kindness outweighed enmity, Lin Xuanzhi didn’t intend to delve into further retaliation against Huangfu Jin.
After all, even if he didn’t scheme against Huangfu Jin, Huangfu Jin still couldn’t win against Bai Yichen no matter how hard he tried.

He mistakenly gave his entire passionate heart to an impossible person. Perhaps even in the end, when he fell into a state of extreme despair and was beside himself with an inconsolably broken heart, he still couldn’t even understand exactly who his most beloved person was.
Lin Xuanzhi was unwilling to be mixed up in such emotional matters and finally said, “Tell me the result as soon as possible.”
“Rest assured.”
Lin Xuanzhi took back the voice transmission bell and didn’t say much to Bai Yichen after that.
When he returned to Yan Tianhen’s room, he found that Yan Tianhen seemed to have returned to normal. Not only did he let Lin Xuanzhi rub his small face, but he also asked about Ji Yunwei’s affairs like nothing had happened.
Lin Xuanzhi avoided the important matters and dwelt on the trivial while telling the story to Yan Tianhen. He naturally wouldn’t tell him those indescribable matters between adults. He only said that Ji Yunwei had offended a fox and wanted some magic treasures from Lin Xuanzhi to deal with it.
Just like that, the two spent a peaceful and harmonious day together.

Speaking of Ji Yunwei, after he obtained the Demon Binding Rope, his heart became a lot more confident. He naturally wouldn’t put all his hope onto this rope; he’d also prepared a lot of mysterious drugs and magic weapons effective for trapping demonic beasts.
Ji Yunwei took out almost everything in his possession in order to make this work. He couldn’t wait to capture the shameless fox tonight and teach him an unforgettable lesson.
