541: Chapter 541: Clues Plus Clues Equals the Answer 541: Chapter 541: Clues Plus Clues Equals the Answer In the middle of the night, Gu Fan was suddenly woken up by his phone ringing.
He realized it was Lin Xi, which imdiately gave him a bad feeling, considering how late it was, it must be sothing serious.
With an uneasy mind, Gu Fan answered the call and heard Lin Xi saying hurriedly over the phone, “Gu Fan, I’m on my way to your place.
I’ve made a significant discovery.
You guys need to get up imdiately.”
“A significant discovery, alright.” Gu Fan instantly perked up, completely awake, quickly getting out of bed and getting dressed.
Then, he softly knocked on Su Hui’s door.
“What’s going on?” Su Hui, yawning, opened the door, Gu Fan inford her about Lin Xi’s arrival.
Following this, Su Hui, looking surprised, said, “You can’t be serious, Lin Xi leaving her house without makeup at this hour?
This must be a significant discovery.”
Hearing this, Gu Fan was almost at a loss for words, but he made a shushing gesture, implying Su Hui to stay quiet and not wake Gu Ling.
So, Su Hui and Gu Fan went downstairs to wait for Lin Xi.
After waiting for about half an hour, Lin Xi arrived, slightly out of breath from running all the way.
“Here, have so water to calm your nerves,” Su Hui kindly gave Lin Xi a glass of water.
“Thank you, Sister Su.
You’re a good person.” After expressing her gratitude with these words, Lin Xi glared at Gu Fan and muttered dissatisfied, “You ungrateful wretch.”
“What’s that supposed to an?” Gu Fan sighed helplessly.
Dealing with won nowadays is really difficult.
Having gathered her thoughts, Lin Xi began, “Let’s see.
In the Shennv Xuanhui, I had a friend from a long ti ago nad Qian Qing.
She was exceptional, for one, her maiden na was Qin, and she only married people with the surna Qin over generations, only giving birth to daughters, each bearing a lotus birthmark.”
On hearing this, Su Hui imdiately speculated, “So, you’ve t soone bearing a lotus birthmark, presumably a descendant of Qian Qing, right?”
Lin Xi nodded, “Yes, and this person also has the surna Qin, can you guess who it is?”
“It can’t be Qin Jia, can it?” Gu Fan and Su Hui were quite surprised, when they saw Lin Xi nodding, they both exclaid, “Holy smokes, how could it be such a coincidence.”
“It’s not a coincidence, it’s definitely destiny.
Qin Jia’s family has a heirloom – a delicate key made of tal, just like the tal we saw in the Super Civilization.” This comnt from Lin Xi instantly piqued the curiosity of Gu Fan and Su Hui, “Strange, how could Qin Jia’s family possess such a heirloom.”
Gu Fan made a guess, “Qian Feng and her team had visited the floating island and found the remnants of the Super Civilization, maybe Qian Qing was also there, perhaps this key was found during that expedition.”
“No, that’s not it.” Lin Xi replied.
She shook her head, her eyes grim, “Qian Qing had a unique ability – she could recreate past scenes using her supernatural power.
Qian Qing was able to imprint onto the key scenes from the past, so when I picked up that key, I saw what had happened to Qian Qing.”
Gu Fan and Su Hui couldn’t help but listen intently, knowing that the important part was coming.
Lin Xi went on, “Qian Qing and her companions from the Shennv Xuanhui were adrift on a damaged ship.
The ship had sustained significant damage from an attack, and aside from Qian Qing, everyone else had fallen.
Fallen into a pool of blood.
Qian Qing was severely injured, unable to stand, and then six n ca out of the cabin carrying sothing, she wanted to stop them, but couldn’t.”
Gu Fan looked surprised, “Again six people, what are the odds?”‘
“That’s right, one of them was even addressed as Brother Gu.” When Lin Xi said this, Gu Fan looked deflated and helpless, thinking how this matter is linked to the Shennv Xuanhui again.
Su Hui got straight to the point, “Can I ask, what did those six people take away?”
“It seed to be called the Destiny Stone.” As Lin Xi finished speaking, Gu Fan seed shocked, as just hearing the na Destiny Stone was closely aligned with their previous assumptions.
“Could it really be a power that can change destiny?” Gu Fan looked intently at the ground beneath him, the image of the Destiny Stone filling his mind, picturing it as a mystical rock.
Su Hui interjected, “So Lin Xi, your implication is that Qian Qing had found the Destiny Stone at sea, but those six people stole it, essentially reaping the benefits of her efforts.
Then considering what we’ve understood from Gu Fan, I think it goes like this – those six people holding the Destiny Stone ca here, established a small fishing village, which gradually grew into a city.
But irrespective of how this place developed, the descendants of those six people all lived in the sa place, which ans…”
Gu Fan continued from where Su Hui left off, “Which ans, it’s highly likely that the Destiny Stone is beneath our feet.
The Big Boss and Qian Feng are not after so old house, but the Destiny Stone hidden beneath it.” As Gu Fan finished speaking, Su Hui inadvertently glanced over and was surprised to see Gu Ling eavesdropping from the staircase.
Gu Fan was quite annoyed at this point, “Have you heard enough, Xiaoling?”
“I didn’t an to.” Gu Ling grumbled as she ca down, but she sat next to Su Hui, maintaining so distance from Gu Fan.
Gu Fan took a hard look at Gu Ling, “Alright, Xiaoling, tell everything you know.”
“I wanted to tell you, but mom and dad told not to say anything.
You can’t bla for this, if anything you should be blaming them, why do you always have to give a hard ti?” With this remark, Gu Ling left Gu Fan at a loss for words.
Then Gu Ling whispered, “Besides, you’ve already figured out a lot on your own, you don’t need to tell you anything.
In fact, you even know more than I do.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Fan seed satisfied.
Although Gu Ling didn’t say much, her words implied that Gu Fan’s conjectures were mostly correct.
Gu Fan stroked his chin, and stepped on the floor again, “The Destiny Stone, truly has the power to change soone’s destiny.
So, after I started living independently here, my destiny changed.
I t Lin Xi, and then…”
“Could it be that my transmigration to this city was also arranged by the Destiny Stone?” Not only Lin Xi grew suspicious, but also Su Hui, “Could it be, my moving to this city for Yuan Cheng, and not ending up with him, was also the Destiny Stone’s arrangent.”
Watching the three of them lost in thought, Gu Ling felt the need to join in, she quickly started making wild speculations, “Could it be that getting into a university here with excellent grades, was also the Destiny Stone’s arrangent, just to make help my brother.”
Everyone looked at Gu Ling’s fanciful expression with incredulity.
They couldn’t shake the feeling that there was sothing off about it.
