Chapter 33: The Sisters are both Heavenly Pride
Chapter 33 – Sisters are both Heavenly Pride
Li Fan asked several inexplicable questions in a row, leaving Yin Yu Zhen a little confused, not understanding what Li Fan was asking these for.
She steeply seemed to think of a possibility and stared at Li Fan with a somewhat blanched face, ”Can it be that you are the father of our two sisters who have been separated for many years?
But soon she denied it herself, “No, you don’t look like us at all.”
“Just curious.” Li Fan ignored this little girl’s slightly jumpy thinking and said indifferently.
“I know, I know, curiosity about people of the same kind? it’s human nature.” Yin Yu Zhen nodded her head repeatedly with a look of I understand.
Li Fan was also too lazy to explain.
Yin Yu Zhen, on the other hand, sighed and slowly said, “We were originally from the northern Night Rend Island. Since we were young, our parents passed away due to a calamity, leaving only my sister and I to depend on each other. As far as I can remember, my sister and I could only live by begging every day, not being able to feed ourselves.”
“But I don’t know when it started, but my sister could always find all sorts of valuable things in different places.”
“So our days got better day by day, and after that, my sister even single-handedly established the Heavenly Treasure House.” Yin Yu Zhen recalled.
“Unfortunately, I haven’t seen my sister in several years.” Her eyes were filled with nostalgia.
“Oh? Where has she gone?” Li Fan frowned.
“Three years ago, my sister was then taken away by a passing Immortal Master who took a liking to her. In the beginning she would still send someone to send us a message to report that she was safe. But then, we never heard from her again.” Yin Yu Zhen said pitifully with her hands resting on her chin.
“Taken away by an Immortal Master? Is it hard to believe that they took her to cultivate immortality?” Li Fan could not help but ask.
Yin Yu Zhen sighed, “It would be good if that was really the case. In the letter that my sister sent back earlier, she used a coded language that only the two of us understand, telling me that her current situation is dangerous, and that if she doesn’t contact her again after that, it means that she might have met an untimely end. Told me to stop looking for her as well.”
Li Fan couldn’t help but ask, “Can it be that it’s her special physique of the Tongling Treasure Body that has attracted the trouble?”
“This is also something I can’t figure out ah. Although the Tongling Treasure Body is said to be indeed very powerful, being able to sense treasures within a certain range around oneself, but this ability is also limited ah.”
“Sister, she is only a mortal, and can sense only things that are of some value to mortals. These treasures, in the eyes of those Immortal Masters, may be similar to broken copper and iron.”
“It’s not like there weren’t any Immortal Masters who sensed Sister’s talent before, but in the end, they didn’t take it very seriously. I don’t know why, but in the end, she was still taken away by that Immortal Master.” Yin Yu Zhen sighed again, a trace of sadness showing in her eyes.
“Although my sister was in a bad way, the foundation she left behind is still there. The Heavenly Treasure House that my sister worked so hard for most of her life to build down cannot be destroyed in my hands.” Yin Yu Zhen said, staring tightly at Li Fan with her big eyes.
“This is also the reason why I sought you out today.”
Li Fan raised his eyebrows and did not speak.
Yin Yu Zhen explained herself, “I don’t have the kind of magical skills that my sister has. After my sister disappeared, Tian Bao Lou’s business was getting worse by the day. Coupled with the fact that I later looked away from a few objects and didn’t see that they were forgeries, resulting in another large loss.”
“Those patriarchs gradually became dissatisfied with me, and even wanted to join forces with outsiders to drive me out and divide up the assets of Heavenly Treasure House.”
“It’s a good thing that they still had scruples about my sister who was picked up by the Immortal Master, so they delayed making a move.”
“So I came to this Liuli Island from Night Rend Island on the pretext of developing the market, as a way of avoiding the storm first.”
“Originally, I was thinking of developing here for a few years to accumulate some power before going back to settle the score with them, but I didn’t expect to be able to meet another Tongling Treasure Body on this Liuli Island.”
Yin Yu Zhen was a bit excited, “If I have your help, I will definitely be able to regain control of Tian Bao Lou.”
“Why should I help you?” Li Fan was unmoved. “I am not interested in the affairs of your Heavenly Treasure House. My wish is only to cultivate Immortality.” “Earlier, you guys promised to help me get a spot in the Pure Body Spirit Pool as long as I helped you take down the fleet. You have not gone back on this matter, have you?”
Yin Yu Zhen seemed to be mentally prepared for Li Fan’s answer as she nodded, “We, Tian Bao Lou, have always put integrity first when doing business. What I promised you, I will definitely fulfill it. But ……”
She paused and looked at Li Fan with a wry gaze.
“But what?” Li Fan’s face sank.
Yin Yu Zhen smiled gently, “Uncle, even if you can enter the Pure Body Spirit Pool, so what? Getting rid of the miasma in your body is not an easy task. Every year, even for those who enter the Spirit Pool, almost only half of them succeed. And the older you get, the higher the probability of failure.”
“Uncle, you’re not too young, are you 100% sure you’ll succeed? Everyone only has one chance in their life to enter the Spirit Pool, if they fail, I’m afraid they’ll have to say goodbye to Immortal Cultivation forever.”
“The Pure Body Spirit Pool is not a matter of 100% success, I know that too. Just having a half success rate is enough to make it worth my while to try. However, listening to what you are saying is …… “Li Fan looked at Yin Yu Zhen, his eyes narrowing slightly.
“Not bad.” Yin Yu Zhen’s face was filled with the smug look that she knew Li Fan would take the bait, “Along with that last letter from my sister, there was also a pill sent over, called the Dust Leaving Pill.”
“According to my sister’s letter, as long as you take this pill, the probability of success in dispelling the miasma in your body will be greatly increased. If it is coupled with the Body Purification Spirit Pool, even at your age, Uncle, there is a high possibility of success.”
“With such a divinely effective elixir, why haven’t you taken it all this time?” Li Fan could not help but ask.
“Uncle, not everyone is like you, insisting on wanting to cultivate immortality. My wish is to do good business and then guard the Heavenly Treasure House that my sister left behind.” Yin Yu Zhen replied.
“People have their own aspirations ……,” Li Fan nodded slowly.
“What, Uncle, are you saying yes?” Yin Yu Zhen looked at Li Fan with expectant eyes.
“Allow me to go back and think about it. After three days, I’ll give you an answer.” Li Fan pondered for a moment, not immediately agreeing.
“Alright, then Uncle I’ll wait for your news oh.” Although Yin Yu Zhen was a little disappointed, she still nodded and said.
“Farewell!”
……
“I hope I’m not wrong this time.”
Yin Yu Zhen looked at Li Fan’s distant figure, her complexion became serious and she whispered.
When dealing with Li Fan, Yin Yu Zhen had always played the role of a “junior” and “little girl”.
Her senses told her that Li Fan did not dislike herself for doing so.
Moreover, it would be easier for her to get along with Li Fan as a junior.
Unlike her sister, Yin Yu Zhen had the ability to sense treasures in the underworld.
But she also had her own specialties.
Aside from her sister Yin Yue Ting, no one knew that Yin Yu Zhen had been able to vaguely foretell the fortunes and misfortunes of things since she was a child.
It was by relying on her sister’s psychic treasure body, as well as her sister’s ability to tend to good fortune and avoid bad luck, that the two sisters were able to grow up smoothly.
