Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return-Chapter 1055: How Did Ling Baobao Know?

"What’s the use?" Han Yan asked curiously.

"The Heavenly Stone was originally a treasure left behind when the world first opened. While it doesn’t compare to the legendary Chaos Treasure, it has the ability to awaken dormant memories," Ling Baobao replied.

"I haven’t lost my memory, so what dormant memories would it awaken?" Han Yan laughed out loud, contemplating its use to her.

"You may not have lost your memory, but if you wish to acquire memories left by others, wouldn’t that be useful?" Ling Baobao mysteriously blinked.

Han Yan’s smile suddenly froze on her face.

Indeed, she hadn’t lost her memory, but the memories of the Aolai Divine Beast imprinted deep in her heart were akin to dormant memories, were they not?

In other words, this Heavenly Stone may not hold much value for others, including Ling Baobao, perhaps merely used for showing off and scaring people, but to her, it was of significant importance.

Originally, Han Yan thought that she might never be able to comprehend the memory inheritance of the Aolai Divine Beast in her lifetime, but with this Heavenly Stone, things might become much simpler.

However, what surprised Han Yan the most was not this; the unbelievable part was how Ling Baobao knew about her inheriting the memory of the Aolai Divine Beast.

"How do you know?" Han Yan looked at Ling Baobao, her eyes full of exploration.

This guy brought far too many surprises to Han Yan. If possible, she really wanted to dissect his brain to see what’s inside.

"You know already, don’t you? My Star Divination Technique observes the heavens, discerns life and death. If I couldn’t even see through this, how could I continue to wander the worldly society?" Ling Baobao proudly said.

"And I wonder who was chased around Xiaocang City, crying for their parents?" Han Yan glanced at him contemptuously. Knowing the level of his Star Divination Technique, she didn’t believe his nonsense.

"Alright, my Star Divination Skill isn’t quite the same as yours, maybe a bit inaccurate at times, but this is something I truly saw," Ling Baobao scratched his head, saying apologetically.

Seeing his hesitant appearance, Han Yan thought he was unwilling to clarify, so she didn’t bother asking further. Everyone has their secrets; when it comes to it, Han Yan’s rebirth is her biggest secret, so she doesn’t have the habit of probing others’ secrets.

"By the way, where did you get this Heavenly Stone? I’ve never heard of such a strange treasure," Zirong, unable to contain his curiosity, asked.

"From that silly kid, Er Niu. That poor guy lost both parents early, isn’t too bright, and survives only by the donations from various neighbors. When he fortunately found such a Heaven and Earth Treasure, he was unlucky as nobody recognized it.

When I left Xiaocang City and passed through their village, I felt sorry for him, gave him half a roasted chicken, and he gifted me the Heavenly Stone. Not feeling right to take advantage of him, I brought him to the Capital, wondering how to settle him. Then I met you guys.

You know what happened next. Considering Pang Dezong’s status, there’s no way he’d trouble a fool. To shut outsiders’ mouths, he had to care for him properly; at least providing meals surely wouldn’t be an issue," Ling Baobao said mischievously.

Only now did Han Yan and the others understand the story, leading them to look at Ling Baobao several more times.

That silly boy picked up the Heavenly Stone yet nobody recognized it. To Ling Baobao, that boy was unlucky, but to Han Yan and the others, his luck couldn’t be higher. If other cultivators had encountered the silly boy and recognized the Heavenly Stone, not only would the treasure be unsafe, but he might even lose his life.

It’s just that Ling Baobao has a kind heart; not only does he not take advantage of him, but he also brings him to the Capital and tries to settle him properly.

When Han Yan and others encountered Ling Baobao in Xiaocang City, seeing him beaten by everyone, Huayue and others regarded him as a worldly God-man, somewhat disdainful of his character, but upon witnessing his kind deeds today, their impression of him completely changed.

Though his skills aren’t outstanding, his character surpasses many deceitful swordsmen and Sword Masters.

"Fine, you better keep this Heavenly Stone." Reflecting on this, Han Yan didn’t want him to face any danger, once again passing the Heavenly Stone to him.

Considering Chong Desong’s status, he indeed wouldn’t harm that silly boy, but if Ling Baobao’s background were revealed, he surely wouldn’t spare him.

Ling Baobao looked a bit surprised. Originally thinking that Han Yan, knowing the Heavenly Stone’s wonders, wouldn’t be so polite with him; yet unexpectedly, she wasn’t greedy.

Ling Baobao observed Han Yan, a strange smile slowly appearing at the corner of his mouth: Is this what mother meant by staying true to oneself?

"What are you laughing at? Without this Heavenly Stone, Pang Dezong, that old fox could see through you instantly, and I’d like to see how you manage," Han Yan saw his carefree smile and said with annoyance.

"If I join Long Yan Academy, he probably can’t kill me," Ling Baobao casually said.

"You want to join Long Yan Academy too?" Han Yan and the others were surprised to look at Ling Baobao.

In fact, who in Anyun Country doesn’t want to join Long Yan Academy? But knowing one’s limits should help! With his current skills, not to mention Long Yan Academy, even Anyun Country’s least notable academy probably wouldn’t pick him.

Third-tier Swordsman, not exceeding Fourth Rank, even in a remote small town like Heishi City, there are plenty who are more talented than him.

"That’s right, I’ve decided, I’ll just bum around Long Yan Academy from now on," Ling Baobao casually took a tag from Han Yan’s hand, confidently walking towards the selection entrance.

Though everyone knew his skills, believing that joining Long Yan Academy was just a pipe dream, strangely, looking at his confident face, no one laughed. That feeling, as if being chosen by Long Yan Academy was as it should be.

It was indeed a strange feeling; even they found it curious how this feeling emerged.

Shaking their heads to clear away the strange feeling, they also headed towards the selection entrance.

"Also, I know you’re curious about my background, I’ll tell you slowly once we enter the academy," Ling Baobao waved his hand as he spoke.

Hearing this, Han Yan and the others had a flash of excitement in their eyes; they’ve been curious about Ling Baobao’s background for a long time.

"However, if I’m not chosen, I can’t say anything; it’d be too embarrassing, and my mother would surely beat me senseless knowing," Ling Baobao added.

This guy! Han Yan and the others couldn’t help but smile slightly. Ling Baobao’s words clearly held no lack of confidence, evidently joking.

Just where does this guy’s confidence come from? Han Yan and the others became even more curious. And Ling Baobao’s supposedly omnipotent mother intrigued Han Yan greatly.
