hat in future trials, she could slowly change Lian's view of her.Ripple didn't care about the previous squabble between Grey and Leia. She was very satisfied with the sword Grey had chosen for her, so...The message was able to arrive so quickly thanks to the original owner's good reputation, and Jade Bihua's usual arrogance. As practitioners of magic arts, they would communicate with each other and sometimes even join forces to handle some special events. Everyone had a clear understanding of each other's abilities.

Many people had long disliked Yu Bixiao, but only because Wu Lianyi protected her was she able to act so boldly until now. When everyone learned that Yu Bixiao was seriously injured and even stripped of her artician status, they all said she deserved it. They claimed she reaped what she sowed and finally pushed away her own shield.

After Jade Biyao recovered from her injuries and was able to walk again, she realized that she had become someone the mages avoided. When she tried calling Lianyi again, she only got an empty number reply, which made her so angry that she smashed her phone.

She must have known! Otherwise, she wouldn't be retaliating against me like this!

Yu Biyao is certain that she and Gao Yang's plan to scheme against Wu Lianyi has definitely been exposed.

She immediately dialed Gao Yang's number. After a long pause, the call finally connected, and a weak voice came from the other end:

What's up

Where are you now

"I'm recovering at home."

Have you seen Wu Lianyi

"No, since she chased me out that day, I haven't seen her again, and she hasn't contacted me! I'm sure the master already knows about our plan."

Gao Yang's voice sounded a little despondent.

He remained unconscious until the next morning. The evil spirit, Yu Meili, whom he had made a pact with before, was also gone. Half of his shoulder and arm had lost sensation. He could only go to the hospital himself and learned that he had missed the best time for setting bones. Even if it healed, he wouldn't be able to exert force on his right shoulder in the future. This effectively cut off his path as a mage.

What frightened Gao Yang even more was what lay ahead. The Xuanli he had cultivated was slowly disappearing, to be precise, it was being consumed by a demonic energy within his body. If he didn't resist with Xuanli, the demonic energy would spread throughout his body in an instant, and that would be the moment of his death. Therefore, he also desperately wanted to contact his master.

"Humph! You were very enthusiastic when you conspired with me, now why are you backing down!"

Yu Biyao sneered.

"Bi Yao, don't think I don't know your plans. In your eyes, I'm just a tool you use to deal with your master!"

"So what You still choose to cooperate obediently, don't you Isn't it because you want to seize Xuanli from your master I gave you that manual, and you put a lot of effort into studying it."

Jade Bi Yao said, with a hint of irony.

Both of them were in a bad situation, the plan had failed, and they both blamed each other, starting to accuse one another.

This was exactly what Lianyi wanted to see, so she deliberately avoided the two of them and lived a carefree life for a while.

The arrival of Wu Yong and Xiao Zhang shattered the tranquil days of Lian Ri.

"Master Wu, I apologize for the intrusion."

"What's going on this time"

Ripple asked curiously.

Last time, she used the Soul-Swapping Formation to switch the souls of Ma Yan and Wu Yong, allowing Wu Yong to briefly read Ma Yan's memories, primarily those from before she went insane. This way, Wu Yong would see the nightmare the evil spirit gave Ma Yan, letting him know the process of how the girls died, making it easier for them to find clues.

“The murderer has been found, and there is more than one. They are all second-generation and third-generation rich people and officials' children. Because they have family protection and this happened ten years ago, they vehemently deny everything and hired top lawyers to defend themselves. Through our efforts, we only managed to arrest three of them, and these three will likely receive light sentences. Two others fled the country.”

Xia Zhang said apologetically.

After all, Master Wu had helped them so much. In the end, it was their own failure in the arrest and conviction process.

So what

The ripples asked directly.

"Could Master Wu please give us some direction so we can apprehend the suspect and bring them to justice"

"Okay."

The ripples gave a positive response.

Xiao Zhang immediately laughed, thinking it wouldn't be so easy to convince him.

Wu Yong, who had remained silent up until this point, finally spoke.

"Master Wu, what you showed me that day was the tragic process of those girls' deaths. The main culprit is that official from three generations who fled abroad. He enjoys murdering young and beautiful girls. Ten years have passed, and who knows how many girls have fallen victim to his cruel hands!"

As he ages, his methods will become more sophisticated and he will leave no trace of evidence.

If you want to apply for the use of special measures to punish this criminal, I will help you, provided that you prove his danger and find evidence of his crimes over the past decade.

And I can tell you for sure that there are definitely more places like this haunted house. He must have wizards helping him, otherwise it would be impossible to seal the evil spirits, and by sacrificing these evil spirits, he obtains what he wants: wealth, official appointments, and more victims."

The ripples said in a bland tone.

Wu Yong's pupils contracted, and Xiao Zhang's face changed, both realizing the severity of the situation.

"If, I mean if we could prove the other party is a habitual offender, would Master Wu be confident in punishing them"

Of course, within my capabilities, I will make sure the other party is punished.

Ripple smiled, giving a positive reply.

"Good! Please wait for good news from Master Wu."

Wu Yong stood up and said goodbye directly, they still had a lot to investigate.

Xiao Zhang expressed his sincere gratitude and then followed suit, leaving as well.

After watching the two figures leave, the red ribbon in her hair on a strand of hair moved again, this time for only a very short duration.

Ripples' eyes narrowed, then she changed into a black long dress and left her residence.

R ripples went directly to the leisure bar that her original body frequently visited. Many mages came here, as did ordinary people. As soon as she sat down at the bar, the bartender smiled and said:

"Master Wu, are you still the same as before"

"Same as always."

The ripple nodded, and then curiously watched the performance on stage. A beautiful girl was singing an English song.

"Beautiful lady, may I buy you a drink"

A handsome young man holding a glass of wine walked up to Lian Yi.

"You know me."

The ripples answer off-topic.

"Of course not, it's the first time we've met. I was immediately drawn to your extraordinary charisma."

"Is that so But you've been following me all the way from my villa to here, which makes me wonder about your intentions."

Ripples watched the other person's face change in her words, reaching out to grasp their wrist and pulling them down onto the nearby bar stool.

"What do you want to do"

"Shouldn't that be me asking you You didn't succeed in tricking me last time, so now you're using the 'beauty trick' But what can I do You're not my type! How about considering someone else"

Liàn yī smiled and teased.

The young man before them was one of the two who had been stalking Xiao Zhang to the seaside villa and using dark magic to attack Lian Yi. Lian Yi had identified him based on the fluctuations of his Xuan Qi energy.uation, she wouldn't have ended up like this. People still need to save themselves; relying on others is ultimately unreliable."Now I have fulfilled two of the original body's wishes, just one left: t...
