Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 184: Song Juan Disappears Again

Gu Xiao was a bit anxious, "Zechuan, we’ve been friends for so many years, I really had no other choice but to ask for your help!"

Lu Zechuan’s dark eyes subtly shifted, "Gu Xiao, all this while, I never knew your father was such a person."

After a pause, Lu Zechuan continued slowly, "When wrong is done, a price must be paid. Qin Shuang didn’t take his life, which already shows her mercy. Don’t you think?"

Having said this, Lu Zechuan hung up the phone.

Qin Shuang didn’t kill Gu Heng but spared his life, which was something Lu Zechuan hadn’t expected.

"All I hope is that Qin Shuang can behave herself in the future and not cause us any more trouble." Xia Mian gazed into the distance, letting out a gentle sigh.

Lu Zechuan’s dark eyes deepened, his mind wandering, "Someone once said that as long as there’s profit, some people can even disregard the law."

Especially for people like Qin Shuang, to them, the law is dispensable.

As long as there’s profit, human lives to them are as cheap as grass.

Xia Mian pressed her lips together, "That’s why we can’t let the initiative fall into others’ hands!"

Xia Mian stared ahead, her expression grave, "Perhaps I could become a fortuneteller."

For Lu Zechuan, she could temporarily become a fortuneteller, to help those who need to resolve resentments, diffuse the Resentful Spirit Energy, and accumulate energy to open the Mystical World.

Lu Zechuan laughed, his smile pure and warm, he raised his hand to draw Xia Mian into his embrace, speaking softly, "Silly girl, don’t think too much, everything will find its path when the boat reaches the bridge."

No matter what Dead Cultivators, Beast Taming Clan, or Soul-devouring Clan... one will come, one will be slayed; two will come, two will be slayed!

Xia Mian met his gaze and smiled, "True enough."

Despite saying this, Xia Mian had already noted down that lady from the Divine Clan in her mind.

Halfway through their walk, Xia Mian received a call from Shu Dao Mountain.

The voice from Shu Dao Mountain was urgent, pulling Xia Mian’s newly relaxed heart taut again.

"Grand Ancestor, Mrs. Song is missing!" As Shu Dao Mountain spoke, he wished he could slap himself twice.

The Grand Ancestor and Grandmaster had arranged him to be by Song Juan’s side to ensure Mrs. Song’s safety, but now, Mrs. Song disappeared right under their noses!

"When did this happen?" Xia Mian frowned, a trace of hostility flashing in her eyes.

Song Juan had gone missing once before, being entranced by Gu Xiang and others, which back then was due to Hu Lai and others’ unfamiliarity with Taoist Skills resulting in their entrapment in Gu Xiang’s Enchanting Array.

But now, Song Juan had Shu Dao Mountain by her side!

The Taoist Techniques of Shu Dao Mountain might not be exceedingly advanced, but protecting Song Juan should pose no issue.

"Five minutes ago." Shu Dao Mountain’s voice was somewhat urgent, "Right under my nose, she vanished in a swoosh!"

Xia Mian’s face suddenly turned cold, "Wait for me to get back."

Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan quickly returned to the Song Family.

Shu Dao Mountain was pacing anxiously back and forth in the glass conservatory in front of the Song Family Villa, like ants on a hot pan.

Seeing Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan enter, he immediately looked as if he saw saviors, "Grandmaster, Grand Ancestor! Please hurry and find Mrs. Song!"

Shu Dao Mountain was about to cry, fearing that Song Juan would disappear just like Meng Meng did back then, vanished in a swoosh, and to where, they knew not.

Xia Mian narrowed her eyes, not speaking.

Shu Dao Mountain pointed to the conservatory, "Five minutes ago, Madam was still inside trimming flower branches. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared! I’m sure she didn’t leave the conservatory!"

Xia Mian lightly acknowledged, then walked into the conservatory slowly.

The glass conservatory trapped in heat during the day; even by dusk, the temperature inside wasn’t low. Upon entering, a wave of hot air rushed to greet her.

Various colorful flowers inside were blooming with vigor, each blossom densely packed, red, white, pink, yellow, making a particularly striking sight.

Xia Mian squinted thoughtfully.

Lu Zechuan scanned surrounding vigilantly, a trace of anger gradually appearing in his eyes.

"It’s the Wood Clan." Here, he sensed the aura of his kin.

Xia Mian furrowed her brow; whether it was Qin Shuang or Ding Lan, both had said that there were few descendants of the Wood Clan left. Then what was with a Wood Clan appearing in the Song Family conservatory now?

"In places abundant with vegetation, it’s easy to nurture the Spiritual Bodies of the Wood Clan." Lu Zechuan after a moment of silence spoke quietly, "This conservatory is very suitable for the Wood Clan to rest and recuperate."

Xia Mian’s brow creased slightly, her expression was all solemnity.

"Let me give it a try." Lu Zechuan said, gently moving his finger.

As Lu Zechuan’s fingers moved slightly, the flowers in the conservatory seemed to have gained souls, beginning to whisper amongst themselves.

Lu Zechuan focused his mind, faintly hearing the flowers’ murmurs.

"This man is so handsome!" said the White Rose.

"What does his handsomeness have to do with you, the woman beside him, you can’t provoke!" replied the Yellow Rose.

"What if I can’t provoke her, someone else can!" the White Rose retorted, "The woman who appeared earlier and took away the mistress seemed more formidable than her!"

Lu Zechuan’s brow furrowed slightly, a woman who took away the mistress?

Lu Zechuan walked up to the White Rose, extended his slender finger to gently tap the bloom of the White Rose.

The body of the White Rose shook slightly, shrinking back, not uttering a sound.

"What kind of woman, show me." Lu Zechuan raised a half-smile, his dark eyes locking onto the White Rose.

The White Rose shivered at Lu Zechuan’s half-smiling gaze!

My goodness! This man can actually hear us speak!!!

"No need to be so shocked, this man and the previous woman are on the same side." The Yellow Rose glanced sideways at the White Rose, clearly unimpressed by it.

The White Rose swayed awkwardly, then realized that where Lu Zechuan had tapped was filled with a power that made her feel extremely comfortable.

This was the unique magical power of the Wood Clan.

Indeed, he was on the same side as that woman.

"What did that woman look like?" Lu Zechuan’s dark eyes glistened, his gaze fixed on the White and Yellow Roses, "You’ve been nourished by me, you owe me something in return."

The White Rose hesitated for a long while, then tried its best to use its stem to sketch the appearance of that woman.

Though the figure it twisted out was quite abstract, Lu Zechuan recognized at a glance who that woman was.

"Aunt Ding..." Lu Zechuan widened his eyes in disbelief.

In his impression, Aunt Ding was mysterious, but had never shown him any malintent.

But now, Aunt Ding had taken away Xia Mian’s mother!

"Aunt Ding?" Xia Mian narrowed her eyes, she hadn’t interacted much with Ding Lan, but had a good impression of her.

Ding Lan and she had no deep-rooted enmity, so why would she abduct her mother?
