After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 629

Shi Wenfu noticed something was wrong and looked in An Jiuxi's direction.

His expression grew even more serious after he saw the meager amount of spiritual energy accumulating in her hand.

Where is Jin Yize?

The group looked at Jin Yize and saw that the man easily summoned a ball of spiritual energy in his palm, and it was very dense, obviously unlike them who were affected.

"What kind of place is this Xiliang Mountain? Why is it suppressing spiritual energy?" Yun Qingyu realized that she couldn't use her spiritual energy either, and unease welled up in her heart.

"Swish."

Footsteps came from not far away. An Jiuxi glanced at the spiritual energy in Jin Yize's hand, immediately reached out and told him to take the spiritual energy back, and then stuck a talisman on it.

"It seems that Old Man Si was referring to you."

As the woman's aged voice came, a little girl who was about 1.5 meters tall and looked no more than five or six years old emerged from the shadows.

But his eyes held a look of vicissitude that belied his appearance.

"Are you... Aunt Su?"

Shi Wenfu stepped forward first to inquire, bending over with some uncertainty.

Su Mei raised an eyebrow and nodded, then shook the hand holding the dark lamp, and a tray appeared in her other hand.

The tray appeared to be woven from old tree vines, and it contained exactly six cups.

"There are restrictions on Xiliang Mountain. After drinking this soup, you will be able to use spiritual energy freely."

"You should all be unable to use spiritual energy now, right?"

Su Mei spoke slowly and deliberately, handing the tray to Shi Wenfu and adding, "Token."

Shi Wenfu took out the token.

As Su Mei touched the token, the token emitted a faint light and floated to Su Mei's side, and the character "Su" gradually transformed into a "正" (zheng).

Upon seeing this character, Shi Wenfu finally felt relieved and took the tray.

"Okay, Aunt Su."

Seeing him hand the tray to the group, Su Mei lowered her eyes and put the token into her sleeve.

"It will take an hour for the effects to take hold after you drink it. I'll take you to your lodgings first. Just a heads up, keep your noise down and don't make a mess."

"Then, when it comes to warding off evil, it's best to conceal your aura."

Su Mei's sharp gaze went straight to An Jiuxi's shoulder.

An Jiuxi clearly felt Bixie shrink back, as if he was afraid of Aunt Su in front of him.

"it is good."

An Jiuxi nodded and took out a talisman, patting it onto the forehead of the little evil spirit.

The little evil spirit reverted to its previous form as a spirit pet cat.

Su Mei then turned her gaze away, but paused for a moment when she glanced at Jin Yize, and frowned.

Seeing this, An Jiuxi moved to stand in front of Jin Yize, blocking Su Mei's probing gaze. "Aunt Su, this is my fiancé. He was recently recruited by the Special Administration Bureau. Teacher Si may not have mentioned it to you."

"They dare to dump newly recruited soldiers in this place? They really have a lot of nerve!"

Su Mei snorted coldly before turning her head and walking forward.

The group exchanged glances and, taking advantage of Su Mei's inattention, spat out everything they had just drunk onto the talisman.

"Aunt Su, what's the situation like here at Xiliang Mountain? When we were at the foot of Baiyu Snow Mountain, we sensed a terrifying aura coming from that direction. Could something have formed?"

Shi Wenfu stepped forward to inquire.

Su Mei continued walking forward with her lantern. "There were indeed some messy things, but the Lu family caught them and put them in the main building now."

"The Lu family?"

Apart from Shi Wenfu, everyone else looked puzzled.

They had never heard of the Lu family before. Logically speaking, shouldn't such a capable family be a required course for the Special Administration Bureau?

"It's normal for you young people not to know about the Lu family. The Lu family has been living in seclusion on Xiliang Mountain since the previous generation. They will not make a move unless necessary. The reason for this incident is because of those blind people who tried to seize the Lu family's body."
