To clear my name, I must speak louder. As soon as I opened my mouth, it shocked Princess Lianchunâs eardrums.
"Hey, earlier he said you two are uncle and nephew, he called himself Ji Youyuan. Now you tell me your name is Ji Youyuan, could it be your mother married in?"
Suisui blinked at the words and hurriedly looked at Ji Youyuan, asking puzzledly, "What is âmarrying inâ?"
Ji Youyuan: "..."
Touching his nose, can this topic really be discussed with a child who is not yet five?
Seeing Ji Youyuanâs awkwardness, Princess Lianchun also realized her slip.
"Sorry, I shouldnât have said this in front of a child.
"Itâs fine; this child is young, lost her parents early, has no one to teach her, so sheâs a bit simple-minded."
The simple-minded child let go of Princess Lianchunâs hand, speaking very seriously.
"Blocked meridians, memory nerves in the brain are damaged. To recall past events, there are two ways: one, I prescribe medication, you take it three times daily. In about six months, youâll remember past events."
Upon hearing this, Ji Youyuan and Princess Lianchun couldnât help but ask.
"Then whatâs the second? What is the second way?"
To Ji Youyuan, six months seemed a bit long.
As for Princess Lianchun, her questioning of another way came purely from instinct.
"The other way is Ah Ling."
"Ah Ling? Who is that?"
Princess Lianchun looked at her with confusion, "Does Ah Ling also know medical skills?"
"Ah Ling doesnât know medical skills, but she is the soul of the Soul-Calling Bell. The Soul-Calling Bell is a Divine Artifact. Iâm still young and not strong enough to use its powers, but Ah Ling can. She can escort Princess Lianchun to the River of Oblivion and regain her memories before the Naihe Bridge."
Ji Youyuan: "The Soul-Calling Bell can be used like that?"
Suisui nodded enthusiastically: "Yes, yes! Ah Ling told me."
Princess Lianchun: "River of Oblivion, Naihe Bridge? Why do I feel these donât sound like good places?"
Suisui blinked at the words, "Is Wangchuan good?" tilting her head, "Is Naihe Bridge a good place?"
River of Oblivion and Naihe Bridge: Whether weâre good places is entirely up to you!
"Does Ah Ling have the confidence?"
Ji Youyuan thought about it. Six months was indeed too long. If Ah Ling could indeed help Princess Lianchun regain her memory, he would rather have her take a trip to the River of Oblivion.
"It should be no problem!"
Suisui uncertainly nodded her head, quickly communicating with Ah Ling.
Ah Ling appeared in front of everyone through the Soul-Calling Bell, a young girl of about eleven or twelve, wearing a bright green garment, with a red flower mark on her forehead.
This is the Divine Spirit mark of the River of Oblivion.
The young girl slept for thousands of years and woke again, questioning her masterâs relations, she worked hard on her cultivation for half a year to restore this Divine Spirit mark.
"Ah Ling, do you have confidence in restoring Princess Lianchunâs memory?"
Ah Ling nodded, "Though my cultivation hasnât fully recovered, I can safely escort one person through the River of Oblivion for now. But whether she can immediately regain her memories at Naihe Bridge is hard to say!"
"What do you mean by that?"
Upon hearing Ah Lingâs words, even before Suisui could say anything, Ji Youyuan asked first.
"Upon reaching Naihe Bridge, there are Yin Cha specially leading souls back. Theyâll find this is a living soul; they bring living souls to Judges to discern their lifetimeâs merits and faults. This person was Xun Hengâs puppet, helping him gather resentful spirits, and has blood on their hands. Once before the Judges, they are unlikely to return."
"You... what do you mean? What puppet? What lives? I donât understand any of this?"
Princess Lianchun listened utterly confused.
How did it come to having lives on her hands?
Whatâs this about Xun Hengâs puppet?
Who is Xun Heng?
Daring to make her a puppet, thatâs asking for trouble?
Princess Lianchunâs anger painted her face.
An unconsciously intense killing aura emanated from her.
Her murderous aura was so strong it was threatening to turn into baleful energy.
"With such a heavy killing aura, going to Naihe Bridge will likely be a one-way trip!"
Ji Youyuan muttered!
Princess Lianchun frowned, asking again.
"So what should I do now? Do I really have to slowly take medicine and wait half a year to get better?"
"Not necessarily, if Master can go along with you to Naihe Bridge..."
"Stop it! Thatâs not possible!"
Ah Lingâs proposal was cut short by Ji Youyuan.
"Why isnât it possible?"
Just as Ji Youyuan interrupted Ah Lingâs proposal, Suisuiâs questioning voice came.
"How old are you? Just going to walk the Path of Oblivion, what if you canât return? Do you know how dangerous it is?"
Ji Youyuan, exasperated, stretched out to flick her little forehead!
Utter frustration!
"I... I donât find the Path of Oblivion dangerous? Last time my second uncle fell into the Path of Oblivion, I still dragged him back!"
"Your second uncle, that fool!" Ji Youyuan helplessly rubbed his forehead!
In the Capital City, the foolish Ji Laoer unjustly sneezed, touched his nose, looked up at the sky, murmuring softly.
"Winter is coming, itâs time for warmer clothes."
"Ah Ling! Are there any other ways?"
Ah Ling thought for a moment.
"There are, but itâs not as safe without the Master personally going."
"What way? Tell me!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Youyuan quickly asked.
