Chapter 677: Chapter 677: Soul Capturing Stone (First Update)
He opened the door of the mansion.
At that mont, standing outside was a striking silhouette.
It was none other than the principal of Coastal High School, Ye Qianrou.
Perhaps because she was not at school, Ye Qianrou was not in her uniform.
At this mont, she was dressed in a sleeveless white blouse and a pair of black jeans, complented by her shoulder-length hair and stunningly beautiful face.
She looked exactly like the girl next door, only instilling a sense of fondness and no suspicion at all.
Lin ngyao would have never imagined that such a beautiful and gentle neighbor was actually there to harm her tonight.
"Qianrou, please co in!"
Lin ngyao quickly stepped aside to let Ye Qianrou in.
"Sure!"
Ye Qianrou smiled and nodded her head, and without any hesitation, she walked directly into the Lin Mansion.
The two of them proceeded to the living room on the first floor and sat down on the sofa.
Lin ngyao was about to get so water for Ye Qianrou, but she was stopped.
"Yaoyao, no need to fuss over . I’m not an outsider; you don’t need to be so polite!"
Ye Qianrou said with a smile.
Her smile, warm like a spring breeze, made her feel especially familiar, almost as if there was a unique charm about her that made Lin ngyao instinctively want to draw closer, leaving no room for any suspicion.
"Alright!"
Lin ngyao obediently sat back down on the sofa.
"Your sister hasn’t co back yet, has she?"
Ye Qianrou glanced around the mansion and then fixed her gaze on Lin ngyao to confirm.
"Yes, she hasn’t. She probably won’t be coming back!"
Lin ngyao nodded and replied.
"So, are you alone at ho now? What will you do for dinner tonight?"
Ye Qianrou continued to probe.
It was crucial for her to confirm that Lin ngyao was alone in the house, as it was critical for what she planned to do next.
She definitely didn’t want to be interrupted while dealing with Lin ngyao later, as that would ruin everything.
"It’s okay. I’m used to it. I’ll just order so takeout later!"
Lin ngyao, completely unsuspecting, explained honestly.
"Okay then!"
Ye Qianrou finally eased up, then swiftly steered the conversation to the main subject. She looked at Lin ngyao and asked, "By the way, Yaoyao, I heard from your sister that you are engaged to Chen Feng, right?"
"Ah!"
Lin ngyao absolutely did not expect Ye Qianrou to ask this. She was completely taken aback, then beca extrely shy.
However, thinking about the relationship between Ye Qianrou and her sister Lin Wanqing.
Lin ngyao relaxed quite a bit, and with a blushing face, she nodded and said, "Yes, that’s true!"
"When you two actually get married, you must invite
to the wedding feast!"
Ye Qianrou said with a smile.
"Okay... sure!"
Lin ngyao blushed and nodded her head.
Seeing this, a flash of sharpness appeared in Ye Qianrou’s eyes, and she felt it was about the right mont.
So, she looked at Lin ngyao and directly asked:
"Yaoyao, as soone who has been through this, rember, a man’s love is judged by his actions, not just his words!"
"If a man truly loves you, he will give you everything he owns, including his most precious possession. Has Chen Feng given you his most precious possession?"
"What most precious possession?"
Lin ngyao asked, sowhat bewildered.
"I heard from your sister that Chen Feng seems to have a gem as big as a ping pong ball, do you know about this?"
Ye Qianrou asked tentatively.
As for what she said, it was all made up by her to extract information from Lin ngyao.
"Gem? I’ve never heard of it!"
Lin ngyao frowned slightly and shook her head, pouting.
Seeing this, Ye Qianrou narrowed her eyes and thought:
Could it be that Chen Feng is even keeping secrets from his own fiancée?
Or maybe Lin ngyao is lying to her?
It must be so. Considering how precious the Tianqi Holy Pearl is, even if Chen Feng had told Lin ngyao, he surely would’ve instructed her not to ntion it.
In this case, just asking won’t reveal anything.
It looks like I’ll have to resort to that asure!
Thinking this, Ye Qianrou felt sowhat hesitant.
Because that asure was sothing she truly did not want to use unless absolutely necessary.
Once she used that asure, her identity in Coastal would be exposed, and she wouldn’t be able to stay in Coastal any longer.
Thus, that move was truly a last resort, a sink-or-swim action she would avoid if there was any other way.
However, since things had escalated to this point, if she couldn’t find any valuable clues tonight, her life would be over.
So, now she had to go all out!
Thinking this, Ye Qianrou took a deep breath and made her decision.
She was ready to use that asure!
"Qianrou, why aren’t you saying anything? What gem are you talking about? Can you tell
more about it?"
Lin ngyao asked curiously after Ye Qianrou had been silent for a while.
"Alright, I’ll tell you now!"
Ye Qianrou smiled slightly then stood up, walked over, and sat down beside Lin ngyao.
"Listen carefully, that gem is..."
While speaking, Ye Qianrou suddenly raised her right hand and, with incredibly fast speed, chopped Lin ngyao’s neck.
Lin ngyao instantly went limp and collapsed onto the sofa.
"Lin ngyao, don’t bla . If you have to bla soone, bla Chen Feng since you are his fiancée!"
After laying Lin ngyao’s body flat on the sofa, Ye Qianrou spoke to her.
Having said this, Ye Qianrou stood up and then pulled out a stone the size of a quail’s egg from her jeans pocket.
This stone was purple all over and radiated a faint purple glow.
Like it possessed so magic capable of sucking away a person’s soul.
If there was soone knowledgeable about cultivation here, they would be surprised upon seeing this stone.
Because this purple stone was not just any ordinary stone, but a Spiritual Artifact, a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact!
Such things are quite rare in the Mortal World!
Of course, this wasn’t a combat-type Spiritual Artifact!
There are many types of Spiritual Artifacts, including those that directly enhance a cultivator’s combat abilities.
Others are auxiliary types.
For example, those that accelerate the recovery of True Qi for cultivators or aid in healing.
And this purple stone was nad the Soul Capturing Stone.
It belonged to the auxiliary type, but its function was sowhat unorthodox.
It was specially used to view other people’s mories!
Of course, because it’s only a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact, this Soul Capturing Stone could only examine the mories of ordinary people, not those above the Yellow Rank of Ancient Martial Artists.
Moreover, the most critical aspect was that the Soul Capturing Stone also had side effects!
These side effects, while not fatal to the person whose mory was accessed, would turn the person into a vegetative state!
