Chapter 196

"Miss An!"

"Seventh Master!"

Two anxious voices reached their ears, and the figure standing on the edge of the cliff was already blurred and indistinct to the rapidly descending pair.

The wind whistled past An Jiuxi and Jin Yize's ears, causing them to faint in an instant.

Seeing this, the black paper figure slowly slowed its descent, circled around the two of them, and then disappeared into black ash!

"I didn't expect him to actually bring the person to me."

A figure slowly walked in from the shadows, his resentful gaze fixed on An Jiuxi.

Thinking back to what that brat had done to him at the Jin family, the white-bearded Taoist priest wished he could tear her to pieces!

"I, Lao Duan, am a respected figure in the underworld, but I never expected to fall into the hands of a brat like you!"

Old Duan snorted and stroked his white beard.

Her gaze involuntarily fell on the man lying beside An Jiuxi, and she exclaimed in surprise upon seeing his face.

"Why does it seem like there's something on that cripple from the Jin family?" Old Duan was about to reach out and touch it when he heard shouts coming from not far from the cave entrance.

He immediately withdrew his hand, frowned, and walked out.

Meanwhile, in the capital city, the Shi family...

Shi Xiuyuan had just finished dealing with company affairs and hadn't even had a chance to sit down and rest when the butler took him to the ancestral hall in the backyard.

"Come in."

Old Master Shi's steady voice came from inside, and Shi Xiuyuan's face also turned serious.

He bowed his head and walked in, first kneeling and paying homage to his ancestors.

He then looked at the old man sitting to one side.

"grandfather."

Grandpa Shi nodded in agreement, then pointed solemnly to the peach wood sword in front of him, "The tassels on all of your swords are made from the same piece of jade, which your mother obtained by accident back then."

“Logically speaking, this red line shouldn’t appear, but… since it has appeared, it means that the destined person of our Shi family has also appeared. Let the fourth brother take people to Haicheng. There should be a Wutong Mountain there, and the person might be there.”

"After finding the person..."

Old Master Shi paused for a moment, as if he was considering some important decision, then said, "Bring them back first."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Shi Xiuyuan's eyes.

"Fourth brother, is it alright for him to go?"

With Shi Wenbin's personality and fierce appearance, I'm afraid he'll scare people when he arrives.

"Are you free?"

Grandpa Shi glanced at his eldest grandson, his tone tinged with disdain, "All you ever do is come home for meals, you don't even know how to rest!"

Although his tone was serious, Shi Xiuyuan could still hear the old man's concern for him.

His serious expression relaxed a bit.

"I'll take a break when I have some time."

The Shi family values ​​health more than making money.

Therefore, all employees in the companies involved with the Shi family, regardless of size, can take a break whenever they want, as long as they have completed the projects they are supposed to do this month.

Even the work schedule is a six-hour workday, including all kinds of weekends and holidays.

Naturally, all employees under the Shi family have the strongest execution capabilities in the entire company!

After all, as long as you do good deeds, you can go home and rest, and nobody wants to delay.

"Tell the fourth son a couple of times not to let him have a long face all the time." Old Master Shi knew that these children all knew their place, but the fourth son's job really didn't allow him to be all smiles.

Shi Xiuyuan nodded, stood up, and prepared to leave.

The old man's voice rang out again from behind, "That destined person may be related to you by blood."

As family, we don't understand things as clearly as outsiders; we can only glimpse a corner of the truth.

Blood relation!

Shi Xiuyuan turned to look at the old man, his eyes filled with disbelief, and his words tinged with expectation, "A girl...a girl?"
