Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl-Chapter 266 Psychic! Ban Huo Ximian [2 more]

"Brother Shaoyu, I looked into it specifically, and this Huo Ximian really isn’t just any kind of arrogant in the entertainment circle," Xiang Yuefeng continued speaking, "She has already bullied quite a few nameless little artists relying on the ’Huo’ surname, and she has blown up quite a few scandals too, though they were all silenced by Guangxing Media contacting the media."

Otherwise, with Huo Ximian’s temperament, it would be impossible for her to get anywhere in the entertainment industry. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Xiang Shaoyu’s brows furrowed even tighter, "She’s still under contract with Guangxing Media? Who signed her?"

"That..." Xiang Yuefeng touched his nose, "Brother Shaoyu, it’s your company, how would I know? I’ve been focusing on training lately, preparing to take the top spot in next year’s core disciples’ assessment."

Xiang Shaoyu glanced at him and said indifferently, "If you still can’t become a core disciple this time, just commit seppuku."

"If I still don’t make it this time, I’ll just go work for Miss Ye’s company," Xiang Yuefeng puffed out his chest, "Even if I’m just a bodyguard, Miss Ye definitely wouldn’t despise me!"

Xiang Shaoyu: "..."

You’ve really taken the art of clinging to powerful figures to the highest level.

"Have Guangxing Media terminate the contract immediately, and warn the Huo Family," Xiang Shaoyu said coldly, "Don’t let me see Huo Ximian ever again, and check the other artists under Guangxing Media more closely, clean up all those who are not behaving."

He had not yet taken over the position of Head of the Xiang Family, but several key subsidiaries under the Xiang’s Group had already transferred all their power to him at the beginning of the year.

Everlight City, the top-tier luxury marketplace, and Guangxing Media, the entertainment empire, were considered two major sources of income for the Xiang Family.

However, Xiang Shaoyu valued heavy industry the most, as well as the dealings with the Global Center’s Wanguo Group, leaving the management of other subsidiaries to the respective people.

He had to always keep an eye on the auctions around the world large and small, to bring back all of Shenzhou’s antiques that had been scattered abroad; he truly had no time to care for these entertainment-related affairs.

"That’s what I was waiting for, Brother Shaoyu," Xiang Yuefeng said eagerly, "I’ll go handle it right away, but Brother Shaoyu, you have to send the order clearly, or they won’t acknowledge me at all."

Xiang Shaoyu waved his hand and handed over his personal seal, "You take care of it, I have other matters."

It wasn’t until after Xiang Yuefeng had left that he took out his phone and contacted Ye Wanlan.

The other side picked up quickly: "Hello?"

"Miss Ye, I am truly sorry," Xiang Shaoyu began apologetically, "I’ve been busy with affairs and haven’t been able to deal with this matter promptly, causing unnecessary trouble for Miss Ye."

"No need for formalities, Young Master Shaoyu," Ye Wanlan shook her head slightly, "This matter has nothing to do with you, I have already sent people to handle it."

"Still, since Huo Ximian is an artist under Guangxing Media, it’s my responsibility to see this through," Xiang Shaoyu said earnestly, "Sometimes I get so busy that I forget many things, if Miss Ye needs anything, just call my private number directly."

"Xiao Wan, dinner is ready; you’ve been tired all morning, go and eat first," said a cool and gentle voice, "Is that Shaoyu? I’ll take care of it for you."

Indeed, Ye Wanlan was also very tired, and she nodded in response: "Alright."

In the span of three seconds, before Xiang Shaoyu could even react, the person on the other end of the phone had already changed.

"You sure showed up quickly this time," Yan Tingfeng said with a slight smile, "I heard you just got back from the Northern Lands yesterday?"

"To be precise, at three in the morning today," Xiang Shaoyu couldn’t vent the frustration in his stomach, "After I got back, there were major family matters waiting for me to deal with. I only took a half-hour break, and I haven’t slept yet!"

"Hard work," Yan Tingfeng acknowledged with a sound, "Did you encounter any unexpected incidents on this trip to the Northern Lands?"

"You guessed it quite accurately," Xiang Shaoyu took a deep breath, "I ran into two psychics, and if it weren’t for a Rong Family Member accompanying me this time, it would have indeed been difficult to successfully bring back the auctioned items."

Yan Tingfeng’s eyes narrowed slightly: "Psychics..."

Three hundred years ago, the Northern Lands were able to contend with Shenzhou for a while precisely because they had a few extremely powerful psychics, whose strength could even match the Beiming Sect Leader at the time.

Psychics, as the name suggests, are individuals who can communicate with wandering spirits and are also proficient in various Arts and Methods.

However, since then, talents from the Six Great Sects have emerged, with Mount Penglai, the Beiming Sect, and the Great Purity Sect each having unparalleled geniuses taking over as Sect Leaders, successfully suppressing the Northern Lands.

The difference is that Shenzhou went through a devastating war, while the Northern Lands did not.

Up to this day, the psychics of the Northern Lands have only grown stronger.

In fact, in recent years, the Northern Lands have even held a program related to Spirit Communication, inviting people from all over the world who can conduct spirit communication to compete on stage.

"Hmm, one of the psychics is probably from the Romanov Family," Xiang Shaoyu sighed lightly, "If we cannot find the successors of Mount Penglai and the Beiming Sect in time, facing the Romanov Family will indeed be a tough battle for the Rong Family alone."

Penglai Magic and Beiming Arts are both derived from Taoist Arts,

Yan Tingfeng listened quietly: "When the time comes for them to appear, they will naturally appear."

"That’s pretty much what the elders of the Rong Family say too," Xiang Shaoyu laughed, "But what else is there to do but to let nature take its course and leave it to fate?"

Yan Tingfeng said lightly, "But I, I do not listen to fate, nor do I leave it to chance."

Three hundred years ago, it was said Shenzhou would not be able to survive this calamity and would surely face destruction.

But he was unwilling.

Even if it cost his life force, he would fight for time for Shenzhou.

Xiang Shaoyu froze suddenly, he moved his lips but for a moment, he was pinned in place by this indifferent tone.

After a long while, he finally snapped back to reality, "What were you... doing just now? I didn’t disturb you, did I?"

Yan Tingfeng, "Cooking."

Xiang Shaoyu, "..."

Xiang Shaoyu, "????"

What the heck?!

For a moment, he wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

"Since when can you cook?" Xiang Shaoyu experienced disbelief for the first time, "Has someone cast a spell on you? You used those hands of yours to cook?!"

"Just learned it." Yan Tingfeng coughed twice, "In the catacombs of Yongning Palace, they discovered recipes left by King of Yan that contain many lost dishes. I wanted Xiao Wan to try them, so I gave it a shot and unexpectedly, it turned out quite well."

Xiang Shaoyu thought for a moment, "Is this what they call ’washing hands to make soup’?"

Seconds later, he realized the most important thing, "Wait, you said recipes by the King of Yan?!"

His ancestor also knew how to cook?!

"It seems you’ve been really busy these days, not even watching the news," Yan Tingfeng’s voice was mild, "These recipes are currently undergoing protective measures, and after the protection is complete, they will be sent to the Yunjing Museum for the first exhibition."

"Good, once I’m free from this busy period, I’ll also visit Fengyuan," said Xiang Shaoyu, "Ever since meeting Miss Ye, every archaeological progress has been smooth. Miss Ye truly brings good fortune."

Yan Tingfeng’s eyebrows lifted slightly, "Remember to watch the news later, there are more discoveries."

After the call ended, Xiang Shaoyu also completely shook off his drowsiness and became alert.

News?

He just opened his frequently used news app, and a red headline flashed up

#Shocking! On the morning of October 17, Fengyuan Archaeological Team discovered the tomb of Lin Fanyin, the last Sect Leader of Heavenly Sound Sect#

[According to the archaeological team, Lin Fanyin’s body was perfectly preserved, and her tomb was personally built by Sword Saint Xie Linyuan, and during this period, more evidence was found indicating that Lin Fanyin and Xie Linyuan were not strangers, but childhood sweethearts, with more clues still being unearthed. Stay tuned for more updates from the Fengyuan Archaeological Team!]

Xiang Shaoyu couldn’t help but be shocked, "Childhood sweethearts?"

There was so little known about the Sword Saint; who could have imagined that archaeology would uncover such a startling discovery?

All major social media platforms exploded in an instant.

At this moment, all entertainment news was cast aside by netizens.

[What? The two of them were childhood sweethearts? This is even more shocking than the revelation that Master of Highest Heaven Tower and Princess Yongning knew each other.]

[All the history books I’ve read seem to lack any episodes where Lin Fanyin and Xie Linyuan knew each other; the few times they crossed paths were at the once-every-five-years Martial World Conference, right?]

[The biggest official pairing is born! Childhood sweethearts make a perfect match—one with a sword, the other with a zither. Truly a match made in heaven, I bow down in worship.]

[Am I the only one who feels that since the filming of ’Treasures of The Divine Land’ started, more and more historical puzzles have been uncovered? There must be a connection!]

...

Because of this news, Huo Ximian’s intention to destroy Ye Wanlan and the ’Treasures of The Divine Land’ show team was completely unsuccessful.

She was so furious that she threw a vase on the table, "Why hasn’t there been any response from the company? Are they going to let Ye Wanlan roam freely in the show team?"

"Mianmian, calm down," her agent consoled her, "The company is backing you, how could they not help you? They’ll definitely respond soon—"

The phone rang just then.

"See, the call is coming," the agent smiled, pressing the answer button, "Boss, Mianmian and I are still in Fengyuan, here—"

Before she could finish, she was cut off by a chilling voice on the other end.

"As of today, Guangxing Media has no one by the name of Huo Ximian."
