Chapter 335 - Senior Screenwriter

Knowing that Lin Jiansheng was deliberately trying to snub him, Xuan Ye took a deep breath and suppressed the gloominess in his heart.

Recalling the Eye of Destruction that Lin Jiansheng had used for Spirit Purifying, Xuan Ye could no longer suppress his curiosity and suspicion. He asked Lin Jiansheng directly, “Saint Lin, where did you learn the Eye of Destruction?”

Lin Jiansheng laughed. “What Eye of Destruction?” He tried to brush past the topic.

Xuan Ye saw through his intentions at a glance. His expression was cold as he said, “Saint Lin, no one in this world understands the Eye of Destruction better than me. What are you pretending for?”

Xuan Ye was the person who had the most contact with Su Tingxue in this world. Since they were former lovers, how could he not know the Eye of Destruction?

Lin Jiansheng could fool others, but he definitely could not fool Xuan Ye.

“Eye of Destruction?” Lin Jiansheng raised his brows and said, “About a hundred years ago, a mystic realm appeared near Kui Mountain. I went to the mystic realm with Prime Master Yin Mingjue and accidentally met a beautiful woman. I obtained this cultivation technique from her.”

“Kui Mountain?” Upon hearing the words “Kui Mountain” and “Mystic Realm”, Xuan Ye immediately recalled the past from more than a hundred years ago.

Su Tingxue’s nest was near Kui Mountain. However, after she was captured back then, she hid her nest. After 500 years, Su Tingxue’s nest reappeared in the form of a mystic realm, attracting countless people to visit it.

Lin Jiansheng’s excuse successfully convinced Xuan Ye.

Xuan Ye sneered. “You are really lucky.” Back then, he begged Su Tingxue, but she refused to impart this move to him. She said that the Eye of Destruction would harm one’s soul.

From Xuan Ye’s point of view, after Lin Jiansheng cultivated the Eye of Destruction, he still looked like an idiot. He didn’t seem to have lost his soul.

Clearly, Su Tingxue was just unwilling to impart this technique to him.

Thinking of this, Xuan Ye felt somewhat unhappy.

At this moment, Lin Jiansheng suddenly approached Xuan Ye and stood in front of him.

Lin Jiansheng lowered his voice and said, “Later on, I went to search for information and discovered that the Eye of Destruction was a unique cultivation technique created by Purifying Spirit Grand Master Su Tingxue. Saint Xuan Ye, you are the person closest to that senior. No one in this world knows the Eye of Destruction better than you. Is the cultivation technique I learned really the Eye of Destruction?”

Lin Jiansheng’s eyes were filled with curiosity and fear. It was as if he was afraid that others would find out about his relationship with Su Tingxue and that he would be despised by the righteous people.

Seeing this, Xuan Ye’s doubts were completely dispelled.

The older he got, the more muddled he became. He actually suspected that Su Tingxue had ties to Lin Jiansheng.

Su Tingxue had long been thrown into the Black Dome and her soul had dispersed. Ever since the Black Dome was destroyed by that brat from the Sheng family, the last trace of that woman in this world had disappeared.

There was no Su Tingxue in this world anymore.

Noticing that Xuan Ye was deep in thought and did not reply, Lin Jiansheng urged him anxiously, “Saint Xuan Ye, please give me an accurate answer.”

Xuan Ye glanced at Lin Jiansheng before nodding. “This cultivation technique was indeed created by her.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiansheng hurriedly exclaimed, “Saint Xuan Ye, Su Tingxue has been dead for so many years. The Kui Mountain’s Su family has also taken revenge. Su Tingxue is willing to pass the Eye of Destruction to me probably because she likes me. Although this old witch isn’t a good person, this cultivation technique is a good thing. You can’t forbid me from practicing the Eye of Destruction just because of the feud with the Su family of Kui Mountain.”

“Saint Xuan Ye, you are a highly respected saint. You must be magnanimous.”

Xuan Ye glanced at him speechlessly. He could not understand how this cowardly, stingy, and indecent fool could easily break through to become a Level 9 Purifying Spirit Master.

Was it really a fluke?

“She is dead. Bygones are bygones.” This meant that he would not pursue the matter of him practicing the Eye of Destruction.

After figuring out the whole story, Xuan Ye was about to leave. When he brushed past Yu Huang and Kong Qing, Xuan Ye suddenly stopped and looked down at Kong Qing.

Yu Huang calmly held Kong Qing’s hand.

Half of Kong Qing’s body was hidden behind Yu Huang’s legs, but his head stuck out from behind Yu Huang’s waist. He opened his pair of innocent green eyes and looked at Xuan Ye directly and curiously.

Lin Jiansheng noticed that Xuan Ye was looking at Kong Qing, and his heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling. Could it be that Xuan Ye had recognized Kong Qing at a glance?

Xuan Ye stared at Kong Qing’s face for a moment. He frowned and suddenly turned back to ask Lin Jiansheng, “This is your… son?” When did Lin Jiansheng secretly give birth to a child? He had never heard of it before.

Lin Jiansheng heaved a sigh of relief and waved at Kong Qing. “Son, come here!”

Upon receiving the call, Kong Qing hurriedly crawled out from behind Yu Huang and ran towards Lin Jiansheng. Kong Qing hugged Lin Jiansheng’s thigh. “Daddy!”

Lin Jiansheng carried Kong Qing with a smile. He scratched Kong Qing’s nose before telling Xuan Ye, “This is my son, Kong Qing. He’s ten years old this year.”

When Kong Qing’s identity was confirmed by Lin Jiansheng, Xuan Ye’s expression changed subtly. He said sarcastically, “Saint Lin, you’re very good at keeping a secret.”

Lin Jiansheng stopped smiling and said sadly, “I only found out about this child recently.”

Having read many novels and storybooks on the Alliance’s website, he improvised a story. He said, “Ten years ago, when I was out training, I met Kong Qing’s mother. His mother was a tavern owner. His mother and I separated after a month. Some time ago, his mother passed away due to an accident and asked someone to bring Kong Qing to find me. Only then did I know of this child’s existence.”

When Yu Huang heard Lin Jiansheng’s words, the corner of her mouth had a suppressed smile.

Xuan Ye had never read novels or watched dramas. He believed it. He looked at Lin Jiansheng with pity in his eyes and sighed. “It’s indeed a special encounter.”

Knowing that Kong Qing lost his mother at such a young age, Xuan Ye thought of some childhood memories and his heart softened.

He casually took out a Level Three Spirit Tool from his interspatial ring and handed it to Kong Qing. “Kong Qing, right? This is our first meeting. This is my greeting gift to you.”

It was a small bracelet that could protect children from evil.

Under Lin Jiansheng’s silent consent, the biggest evil monster, Kong Qing, reached out to take the small bracelet and even thanked him obediently. “Thank you, Uncle.”

“You’re welcome.” Seeing that Kong Qing was no longer young, Xuan Ye said to Lin Jiansheng, “He’s already 10 years old. It’s time for you to send him to school. You can’t let him lead a muddled life with you.”

“Of course.”

“As long as you know what you’re doing.”

After Xuan Ye left, Lin Jiansheng subconsciously touched the cold sweat on his forehead.

However, Kong Qing threw away the bracelet and muttered, “This thing is so hot. I don’t like it.” The cold Exorcism Bracelet was like a hot potato for Kong Qing.
