There were no wrinkles on the old man’s skin and his complexion was extremely good. He seemed almost like an immortal Daoist, like an expert who had cultivated for many years in seclusion.

  Currently, he had a puzzled expression on his face as he murmured, “No. It was here. The purple qi erupted to the sky from this point. The child of heaven was here.”


  Then he looked at Ning Shu and shook his head, "No, not this girl."

  Ning Shu just silently watched as she mused. This old man was probably Ying Su's master. Perhaps it was because he saw that she possessed great fortune or that their personalities matched, but he insisted on becoming her master.

  This old man was very skilled. He knew Qimen Dunjia as well as methods to maintain good health. After becoming Ying Su’s master, he taught her many skills.

  Ning Shu inwardly patted herself on the back. Fortunately she hadn’t wasted time chatting with Ying Su and decisively collected her soul. Otherwise, if this master in shining armor came and saved Ying Su, she’d have to drown in her tears.

  From now on, no matter what she did, she had to be decisive. She couldn’t become complacent before obtaining success since the future could always change in the blink of an eye.

  "Old man, it is not good for you to barge into the lady’s chamber like this." Ning Shu said with a cold expression. Pei Lan was clearly right outside, so why hadn’t she said anything?

  The old man frowned. "Girl, you…"

  "Forget it, I'll go somewhere else to look. The purple qi that had rushed to the sky had clearly come from this place though.” The old man shook his head in confusion.

  Purple qi rushed to the sky?

  Was he sure? Shouldn’t it be baleful yin energy that was shooting to the sky?

  Purple qi meant that Ying Su had the destiny of an emperor. He only saw the purple qi and not the baleful yin energy that was also filling the skies?

  "You can see yourself out." Ning Shu said indifferently.

  The old man jumped out of the window, still puzzled.

  Ning Shu then hurriedly opened the door to find Pei Lan sleeping on the ground. She picked up a small stone and threw it at Pei Lan, causing her to wake up with a jolt.

  "Miss, what happened to me?" Pei Lan spoke, still dazed.

  Ning Shu narrowed her eyes. Pressure points martial arts seemed quite useful. She should study it when she has the chance.

  "It’s nothing, you just fell asleep on the floor." Ning Shu turned around and headed back inside.

  Pei Lan remained outside, frowning in confusion.

  Ning Shu cracked her neck. She was pretty exhausted, so she lay down on the bed to rest. In any case, she had dealt with Ying Su, the main problem, so now she could relax.

  From the moment she entered this world, she had been very tense. She had to watch out for Ying Su all the time and prevent Ying Su from snatching the body.

  She told Pei Lan not to bother her and that she was going to rest for a while. Then she, mentally exhausted, went to bed and drifted off to sleep.

  After an unknown amount of time, Ning Shu woke up from her sleep and opened her eyes. However, right in front of her was a magnified face that was currently staring intensely at her, to the point of being cock-eyed.

  "Old man, you couldn’t be planning to become a flower thief at such an old age, right?" Ning Shu asked calmly.

  "Was there anyone else in this room earlier?" The old man asked. His divination was correct, and he did see the purple qi erupt from here, so how come it instantly disappeared without a trace?

  He was also sure that this girl, her body, did not have any significant purple qi. There were some but it could be attributed to the relationship with the imperial family.

  The purple qi that he saw was extremely intense and obvious to the point that he could recognize it at a glance.

  Ning Shu was somewhat baffled. The old man was someone aloof from the matters of the mundane world, why would he want to find a person with purple qi? Could it be that he would gain some sort of benefit if his disciple united the continent?
