Chapter 654: You’re a Mature Mirror
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Kunlun Mirror looked sulky as if it didn’t want to pay any attention to her.
Suddenly, a burst of crimson flas appeared next to the Kunlun Mirror.
The Kunlun Mirror was scorched and recoiled, saying, “You’re using this trick again!”
“Rember, you are now my contracted artifact,” Gu Qingluan said coldly, without the kindness she had shown earlier.
The Kunlun Mirror instantly felt like it had been deceived!
With such thoughts in its mind, it asked this question.
Gu Qingluan replied in a calm tone, “How have I deceived you?”
The Kunlun Mirror couldn’t quite explain it, but it had the feeling of being deceived.
“You’re a mature mirror now, don’t be stubborn. After we save the people and leave here, I’ll give you sothing delicious.”
Gu Qingluan thought that even though the other party was quite old, their intelligence was lacking, so they needed so coaxing.
The Kunlun Mirror, not willing to back down, retorted, “What do you an? Do you think I’ll obey you just because you give so food? Am 1 a glutton?”
Gu Qingluan said, “Xuanling Crystal Hearts.”
The Kunlun Mirror in her ntal realm hesitated for a mont and then said, “Seeing that you’re my master, I’ll reluctantly listen to you once. So, your two sons fell into a hidden passage in the artificial mountain.”
Gu Qingluan raised the corner of her mouth. It seed that the Kunlun Mirror was easily swayed by the ntion of Xuanling Crystal Hearts.
Otherwise, Xuanling Crystal Hearts wouldn’t have such a strong allure.
“Where is the entrance to the hidden passage?”
The Kunlun Mirror replied, “Only the people from the Bai family can activate the chanism.”
It projected an image into Gu Qingluan’s mind, showing the scene when she and Feng Tianlan were trapped.
She saw Old Master Bai reach into the inner wall of an artificial mountain and tap it. Subsequently, the artificial mountain moved swiftly.
This appears to be the incident with the artificial mountain that Gu Qingluan faced right before entering the illusion.
As the artificial mountain moved, several dark holes were revealed, sucking Xiaonan, Yuanxi, and Xiao Jingye inside. Then, the head of the Bai family jumped in, and the artificial mountain returned to its original position.
Gu Qingluan asked the Kunlun Mirror, “How many people from the Bai family are there in the Bai Residence?”
“Not many. The only ones who ca here are that man from earlier and his daughter.”
Bai ngning?
Gu Qingluan explained the situation to Feng Tianlan.
Feng Tianlan said, “She’s in the morial hall ahead. I’ll go and bring her here.”
The commotion in the backyard was so loud that it could be heard from the morial hall.
Bai ngning sent soone to investigate the backyard and then focused her attention on comforting the guests who had co to pay their respects.
Her father wasn’t in the morial hall; he must have gone to the backyard.
She had confidence in the Kunlun Mirror and wasn’t worried about thieves entering the backyard.
However, for so reason, she felt a subtle unease in her heart.
Seeing her lost in thought, everyone thought she was reminiscing about the deceased and sighed at the devotion of First Lady Bai.
The deceased wasn’t a mber of the Bai family, and everyone coming to offer condolences had already shown their respect, so they didn’t stay long.
Yu Jingyi stayed longer than the others, and when he heard the loud noise, he guessed it might have been caused by Gu Qingluan and the others, making his thoughts wander.
Suddenly, Feng Tianlan’s voice echoed in his mind.
He frowned, glanced at Bai ngning, who was kneeling beside the deceased and walked up to her. “Miss Bai’s deep affection for Young Master Ming is quite moving. I had a connection with him before he passed away, and he gave sothing to look after. Now that he’s no longer here, 1 think it’s only right to pass it on to Miss Bai.”
Tears welled up in Bai ngning’s beautiful eyes as she expressed surprise, “Master Yu knows Brother Yi?”
“Yes, we t not long ago.”
“Why didn’t Brother Yi ever ntion it?” Bai ngning murmured. “I wonder what Brother Yi entrusted to Master Yu for safekeeping?”
Yu Jingyi intentionally looked around mysteriously and lowered his voice, “This matter should not be spread outside.”
Bai ngning’s heart skipped a beat.
Could it be the lost treasure sword?
She stood up from the cushion.
Kneeling for too long had made her legs numb, and she was unsteady on her feet, almost stumbling.
Her personal maid hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
Yu Jingyi said, “Miss Bai, please accept my condolences. If the departed soul is in the heavens, they surely wouldn’t want to see Miss Bai so sorrowful and weary.”
Bai ngning smiled gently at him, her beautiful eyes filled with grief.
Yu Jingyi sighed softly. “Miss Bai, please follow .”
Bai ngning walked ahead, with Yu Jingyi following behind.
The two of them left the crowded front yard and reached a secluded courtyard.
Bai ngning turned around to look at Yu Jingyi and said, “Master Yu, there are no outsiders here. The item Brother Yi entrusted to you…”
She made an effort to conceal her emotions, but her eyes still couldn’t hide her excitent and anticipation.
Yu Jingyi said, “I’m sorry, Miss Bai.”
Bai ngning’s expression changed instantly, “You deceived ?”
She imdiately looked around, and a tali, stern-faced man suddenly appeared behind her..
