Chapter 161

“Maybe I’ll understand once I go in there and see it myself.”

Uncle Mo closed the door and left.

After Uncle Mo left for a while, Xi Que, who had been hiding outside the window, secretly sneaked in.

She quietly landed on the ground and walked right to the magic circle. She put her hand next to the magic circle, closed her eyes and was feeling something. The expression on her face was quite serious.

Shortly after, she opened her eyes, without much expression on her face.

‘This does not feel like grandpa’s magic power, but it is stronger than grandpa’s, with an indescribable sense of familiarity. What’s going on?’

Xi Que was afraid that she was feeling it wrong, so she put her hand into the magic circle once again, but the remaining power was still the same as she just felt.

‘Could this person be someone from our family?

But that’s nearly impossible. No one in our family could have stronger magic power than grandpa.’

Xi Que felt more and more puzzled. She stood up and walked to the wall that Jiang Sheng had just passed through. The magic power left on the wall came from the same person as the remaining power on the floor indeed.

‘How strong this magic power is! It has been here for hundreds of years, but I can still sense it.

Is this from one of our enemies? Or did grandpa send someone of our family here?

After all, this was the place where the master used to live. It’s impossible that grandpa didn’t send anyone to accompany the master.

But who was the Lan Bai Jiang Huo was talking about? Why hadn’t I heard of this person before?

Besides, he said that it was impossible to clone the special blood. It must be inherited from the reincarnation.

Then it’s impossible for Jiang Sheng to have the special blood since he is not the reincarnation of the master!’

Xi Que’s eyebrows furrowed together.

‘Now, there is only one explanation. The master did not have the special blood. He lied to us.

But that also doesn’t make sense! The master used to draw out his blood right in front of grandpa before, and we had saved a lot of his blood in our family. It was almost impossible for him to trick my grandpa.’

The more she thought about it, the more Xi Que felt bizarre about the whole thing. Everything was wrong, there were too many loopholes.

“It seems that I have to ask grandpa about this. There are way too many things that don’t add up here.”

Xi Que took out a magic sign paper and stuck it on herself. She became invisible right away and left the room.

She walked through the hallway and stood on the second floor, looking at Pei Siyan and those who were down in the hall.

The reason why she dared not go down was because she had been spotted when she was too close to Pei Siran last time she used the invisible magic sign paper. Therefore, she was even more vigilant this time.

But she still underestimated the people here. In an instant, Uncle Mo came to the second floor and walked toward her with cold eyes, as if he suspected there was someone here.

“What’s wrong, Uncle Mo?”

Bai Hao asked, then flashed to Uncle Mo and looked in the direction he was looking at.

“There is a strange breath that doesn’t belong to us here.”

Uncle Mo sniffed and walked to Xi Que.

Xi Que was startled. She strode to the window and jumped down the second floor without hesitation.

Fortunately, the window was open, otherwise she would definitely be caught by fleeing like this.

‘His nose is so sharp! He could smell me even when I’m standing that far away from them.

I would definitely be found if I wasn’t hiding outside the room back then.’

Xi Que covered her aching knees and stood up. She looked up at Uncle Mo who was already looking out from the window. After frowning at him, she limped away and did not dare to stay any longer.

“What’s wrong, Uncle Mo?” Bai Hao followed him all the way.

“Oh, nothing. I’m just being too uptight.”

Uncle Mo chuckled and then closed the window, but his eyes were sharp when he looked down.

It was probably that he was sure he sensed someone, but since he didn’t actually see anyone there, he dared not say it out.
