Chapter 42 The Source of Breath

Xiu Shuo was not surprised to hear Chen Lan's question.

Because Huang Xiu's child has not been sent back to the Huangji Immortal Dynasty. Until now, he is still raised in a small courtyard in Liuyang City.

"No, the third prince has been raising him in the west of the city. There are special people to take care of him, and he will visit him from time to time."

Chen Lan's eyes lit up when he heard this. Chen Yong really cares about Huang Xiu.

But now at least it can be confirmed that Chen Yong is determined to kill himself, and there must be Huang Xiu's shadow behind this.

But Xiu Shuo said before that Chen Yong and Huang Xiu only met once, and he didn't find any connection between Chen Yong and Huang Xiu in the past few years.

"If the third brother is still in contact with Huang Xiu, where do you think it is most likely?"

Xiu Shuo shook his head when he heard this. He really didn't know about this.

He guarded Chen Yong day and night, but he never felt that Chen Yong was still in contact with Huang Xiu.

"In recent years, the Huangji Immortal Dynasty and the Chenfeng Immortal Dynasty have not had any dealings. The only intersection between the Third Prince and the Huangji Immortal Dynasty is Huang Xiu's child."

"But except for that child, everyone else in that courtyard was arranged by the Third Prince. If they have any contact with Huang Xiu, it is impossible to hide it from me."

But Chen Lan did not agree with Xiu Shuo's words.

Although the child is only six years old now, how can the child of the child of destiny be the same as ordinary people?

It is well known that the next generation of the protagonist will not be weak in talent, and may even surpass their parents.

Besides, this world is rich in spiritual energy, and children will be enlightened earlier. He has good luck, so it is entirely possible for him to help Huang Xiu communicate with Chen Yong.

If Huang Xiu is the child of destiny, then that child is the "grandson of destiny". What if Tiandao is also a grandson of the same generation?

"Where is that child? I want to see him."

Xiu Shuo finally began to hesitate after hearing this. Although he is now awake, the child is only six years old after all.

Moreover, as the only child of the empress of the Huangji Immortal Dynasty, he is protected by Chen Yong. If Chen Lan really harms him, the consequences will be immeasurable.

Chen Lan seemed to see his entanglement and put on a righteous look.

"Senior Xiu Shuo, you don't think I will attack a six-year-old child, right?"

"I just want to see if there are any means left by Huang Xiu there."

"To tell you the truth, I don't think you are possessed by ghosts, but you are really confused by something."

"The same is true for the third brother. Think about when he has ever cared about the position of the crown prince. Why hasn't he concentrated on cultivation in recent years, and only wants to control the border."

"Why did he kill me in Liuyang City? If I died in Liuyang City, could he really hide cleanly?"

Chen Lan's words were deafening, like a revelation, which completely sorted out Xiu Shuo's thinking, made him recognize the reality, and distinguished between enemies and friends.

Xiu Shuo was sweating all over. Thinking back to his previous state, he didn't know what he would have done in a daze if Chen Lan hadn't woken him up.

"I'll take you there myself."

Xiu Shuo said as he opened the void passage himself. Chen Lan nodded and walked in. Ji Zhan and Zhao Yan followed closely behind.

Ji Zhan's appearance startled Xiu Shuo again. He knew that Ji Zhan had come to Liuyang City, but he didn't know that Ji Zhan had been with Chen Lan.

If he really wanted to harm Chen Lan just now, Zhao Yan and Ji Zhan would have captured him alive in an instant.

After passing through the void passage, Chen Lan appeared in a small courtyard west of Liuyang City in just a moment.

The three Tianshu realm masters did not step out of the void passage, but guarded it secretly.

In the courtyard, a child about six years old sat cross-legged in the pavilion, with spiritual energy flowing around him. He actually had the cultivation of Dongming realm.

You know, cultivation is not a simple thing. Ordinary children can only start cultivation when they are at least seven or eight years old.

"The grandson of destiny" is indeed extraordinary. Not only did he win at the starting line, but he also won in talent, physical strength, and explosive power.

As if sensing someone's presence, the child immediately stopped practicing and looked up at Chen Lan.

"Who are you?"

Chen Lan did not answer his question directly, but smiled and praised.

"Little friend, you are so cute. Come, come to your uncle, and your uncle will give you a big treasure."

Although the child is still young, his expression is very rich. Hearing Chen Lan's words, he looked surprised and stared at Chen Lan's eyes.

"You said I'm cute?"

"Not pitiful?"

Chen Lan nodded and said as a matter of course.

"Yes, you are here every day, with food and drink and people serving you, how can you be pitiful."

"But your delicate little face must be full of water if you pinch it."

The child has been in Liuyang City for three years, and sometimes he would go out for a walk, but everyone who has seen him has only one feeling for him, that is sympathy.

No matter how well he dresses, how well he lives, or how happy he smiles, everyone will only feel sorry for him.

Although this would make people more willing to help him, being pitied by the whole world would make him become pitiful even if he was not pitiful originally.

While the child was surprised, Chen Lan's eyes of delusion scanned the child and every corner of the courtyard from top to bottom.

After a moment, his eyes were fixed on a red rope tied on the child's left wrist.

"Little brother, what is tied on your hand? Let uncle see it."

"Uncle can exchange this lollipop with you."

While speaking, Chen Lan really took out a candy from the space ring and shook it in front of him.

Although the child's mind was much more mature than that of ordinary children, after so many years, he finally met someone who was not only pitiful to him, and he couldn't hide his curiosity.

"No, this is what my mother left me. There are a few strands of my mother's black hair on it. With it, it's like my mother is always by my side."

Hearing the child's words, Chen Lan was particularly sure that the breath in Liuyang City that affected people's minds and made people feel pity and sympathy for Huang Xiu and her son came from the red rope with Huang Xiu's hair.

From this point of view, this red rope should be the reason why Huang Xiu and her son can communicate remotely.

"System, is there any way to remove this breath?"

Chen Lan wanted Chen Yong to regain his sanity, so cutting off the source of his mind was a very critical point.

But for this breath that he didn't know what it was, Chen Lan could only think of asking the system for help.

[The succubus physique can suppress all magical arts that affect the seven emotions and six desires. Only one drop of the host's blood is needed to lock the breath in the red rope. ]

"Can it only be locked? Can't it be completely removed?"

[The host's succubus physique has not yet fully awakened, and the connection between the breath and the body cannot be cut off at present, so it can only be blocked, not removed. ]

Hearing the voice of the system, Chen Lan's focus is no longer on blocking or removing.

He touched his face very narcissistically.

"Not fully awakened yet? Is there really room for my appearance to improve?"

[……]

[Succubus physique, eternal god! ]
