846 The Sorceror Clan’s Secret (1)

Yu Wan sighed inwardly. As expected of the Saintess. In a day, she had taken over her superb acting skills and flawless plan.

Yu Wan also picked up a large bowl of food for the Saintess. Eat, eat, eat, eat until you die!

However, the Saintess did not brace herself and eat it like yesterday. Instead, she took out a handkerchief and said with a crying expression, “I can’t eat anymore. Sister, eat it yourself.”

Sikong Ye asked, “Are you feeling unwell?”

“No.” The Saintess shook her head and choked. “Today is the anniversary of Great-grandmother Lan Yi’s death. I… I… When I thought that she was no longer around… I…”

The anniversary of Great-Grandma Lan Yi’s death? Why didn’t she know? This fellow must be making it up!

Yu Wan said, “Sister, did you remember wrongly? Today isn’t Great-grandmother’s death anniversary.”

She would make up stories too!

The Saintess said with tears in her eyes, “Sister, you and I have been separated for many years. Perhaps you don’t remember much about your family. Today is indeed the anniversary of Great-grandmother’s death. I definitely won’t remember wrongly.”

Yu Wan wanted to say something, but Sikong Ye had already put down his chopsticks and stood up without any taste. “Eat by yourself. I’ll go out for a while.”

It did not matter if it was the death anniversary or not. What was important was that it evoked Ancestor Si Kong’s nostalgia for Saintess Lan Yi. Since the Ancestor was no longer around, the Saintess did not have to bite the bullet and eat the food Yu Wan gave her.

After Sikong Ye left, the Saintess put down the chopsticks in her hand, and the gentleness on her face disappeared. She looked at Yu Wan indifferently. “Don’t think you’re the only smart person in this world.”

Yu Wan took a bite of the fat but not greasy red braised pork and smiled. “So what if you’re smart? Haven’t you heard of the saying that smart people are fooled by their own intelligence?”

The Saintess sneered. “What a glib tongue!”

Yu Wan said slowly, “Lan Ji, don’t think that you can fool my great grandfather for the rest of his life just because you fooled him once. Don’t blame me for not reminding you. There don’t seem to be many days left of your face, right? I wonder how you’ll face my great grandfather’s anger at that time?”

The Saintess said disdainfully, “We’ll talk about it when you’re alive!”

Yu Wan approached her and said, “It won’t be so easy for you to kill me.”

“Hmph!” The Saintess rolled her eyes and left the room.

She naturally understood that it was not easy to kill her. However, if she could not succeed now, she would have no chance after her identity was exposed. Therefore, she had to kill her even if she could not!

For the entire day, Old Ancestor Si Kong did not appear again.

After dinner, Yu Wan strolled around the Chaoyang Hall. Sikong Ye gave the sisters absolute freedom, and no one stopped her from going anywhere.

As she walked, she came to a place that looked like an ancient tomb. The huge ancient tomb was like an inverted bowl. Yu Wan walked over curiously and raised her hand to touch the tomb door. The tomb door opened with a bang.

She staggered and fell in.

There were a few huge Night-Luminescent Pearls embedded in the wall, emitting a quiet light in the tomb.

Yu Wan looked outside and then inside. Just as she was hesitating whether to stay or leave, she heard an uncomfortable voice at the end of the tomb.

“It sounds like Great-grandfather’s voice…” Yu Wan blinked strangely and asked, “Great-grandfather, is it you?”

The uncomfortable voice sounded again. This time, Yu Wan was sure that it was Sikong Ye. Although the ancient tomb was eerie, with her great-grandfather inside, Yu Wan still mustered her courage and walked towards the end of the tomb.

She walked a long way and came to a secret room at the end.

Sikong Ye was lying on the cold ground on his last breath. Blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth and he was sweating profusely.

“Great Grandpa!” Yu Wan’s expression changed. She knelt down on one knee and helped him sit up. “Great Grandpa, what’s wrong?”

Sikong Ye raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and said patiently, “I’m fine… Why are you here?”

“You still say that you’re fine? You’re already like this! I walked casually and came here…” Yu Wan took Sikong Ye’s pulse and realized that his pulse was very chaotic and his breathing was becoming weaker and weaker. She couldn’t help but worry. “Great-grandpa, how did this happen?”

Sikong Ye panted. “Don’t worry… I’m fine… I’ve been so happy to see you guys these few days that I forgot that it’s almost fifteen…”

Yu Wan frowned. “What do you mean? Why don’t I understand?”

Sikong Ye composed himself and formed a hand seal with both hands. He suppressed his chaotic aura and explained to Yu Wan, “I cultivate the Sikong family’s unique longevity technique. This mental cultivation technique has a fatal flaw. When it’s close to the night of the full moon, my strength will become very weak, and on the night of the full moon, I’ll lose all my martial arts.”

Yu Wan asked in confusion, “Since there’s such a big flaw, why do you still practice it? Don’t the Sikong family have any other mental cultivation techniques?”

Sikong Ye said, “Yes, of course. There are also better ones than the Longevity Technique.”

“Then why did you still…”

“Because only the Longevity Technique has the secret to immortality.”

“Immortality?” Yu Wan was stunned. There was such a powerful cultivation technique in the world? It couldn’t be a bluff, right?

Sikong Ye could see his great-granddaughter’s disbelief. He smiled and said, “You only know that the Lan family is the descendant of the Saintess, then do you know whose descendant the Sikong family is?”

Yu Wan shook her head.

Sikong Ye said, “The ancestor of the Sikong family is from the Sorcerer Clan.”

Yu Wan’s eyes lit up. “The sorcerers of the Sorcerer Clan?”

“That’s right.” Sikong Ye only thought that she was excited because she was a child and had heard about the legendary person.

Yu Wan was more than excited. If she hadn’t been supporting her great-grandfather, she would have jumped up, okay? Yan Jiuchao’s last medicine primer was only short of the sorcerer’s tears. If the Sikong family was the descendant of a sorcerer, in that case, they had found the sorcerer’s tears?!

Yu Wan blinked and looked at Sikong Ye. “Great Grandpa, are you a sorcerer?”

Sikong Ye couldn’t bear to see his child looking at him with such anticipation. He said, “I’m not. The inheritance of the Sorcerer Clan is different from that of the Sacred Clan. It doesn’t come from the bloodline. Although the Sikong family is a descendant of the Sorcerer Clan, there are no more sorcerers.” Sikong Ye didn’t know that Yu Wan needed sorcerer’s tears, so he didn’t talk too much about the sorcerer. He only continued what he said just now, “The longevity technique left behind by our ancestors is said to hide the secret of immortality. I had already cultivated to the eighth level twenty years ago, but after twenty years, I still couldn’t break through to the ninth level. I don’t understand what mistake I made just now. Just now, I was comprehending the longevity technique here when my internal energy suddenly disappeared and my true energy reversed. That’s why I was injured.”

“Is it serious?” Yu Wan looked into his eyes and asked.

It had been a long time since Sikong Ye had felt such heartfelt worry. He looked up at his great-granddaughter’s chubby face. “This small injury is fine. After the full moon, I will recover.”

Yu Wan suddenly thought that the Ghost King seemed to be cultivating the Longevity Technique too. Yan Jiuchao had absorbed the Ghost King’s power. She wondered if he would become abnormally weak on a full moon night like her great-grandfather.

Tomorrow was the night of the full moon…

Yu Wan touched her chin and asked, “Great Grandpa, do you need me to get you some pills to treat internal injuries?”

Sikong Ye waved his hand. “There’s no need. This is the backlash of the Longevity Technique. Pills are useless. Even the previous heads of the Sikong family don’t know this secret. You have to keep it a secret for me.”

...

Yu Wan patted her chest. “Don’t worry, Great Grandpa. I won’t say anything!”

The ancestor, who could not even be killed, actually had such a huge weakness. If word got out, he might be chased by his enemies.

At this point, Yu Wan finally understood why her great-grandfather would kill all the strangers who had barged into the Nether Mountain. This was to guard against danger and also to create a deterrent in case someone happened to assassinate him when he was weak.

Yu Wan’s eyes darted around and she said seriously, “By the way, Great Grandpa, don’t tell Sister about this. She’s not in good health and has a soft heart. She likes to let her imagination run wild. If she finds out about this, she’ll definitely be so worried that she won’t be able to eat.”

“Okay.” Sikong Ye pondered for a moment and agreed.

Sikong Ye stayed in the tomb to cultivate in seclusion, and Yu Wan returned to her courtyard.

Not long after Yu Wan left, a white figure flashed behind the tomb.

Who else could it be but the Saintess?

The Saintess glanced at the gloomy tomb and curled her lips smugly. “The world-destroying ancestor actually has such a big weakness… Yan Jiuchao must have it too, right? What a gift when I’m out of ideas… I was worried that you would see through me… But I’m afraid you won’t have this chance.”

Didn’t that brat always feel that she was lucky? When she killed the Ancestor and Yan Jiuchao, let’s see who else… would support that girl!!!
