Chapter 33: Two Talented Sisters
Li Fan asked several seemingly inexplicable questions, leaving Yin Yuzhen a bit bewildered, not understanding why he was asking these.
Suddenly, she seemed to think of a possibility, her face turning somewhat pale as she stared at Li Fan. "Could it be that you are the long-lost father of us sisters?"
But soon, she denied it herself. "No, your appearance is nothing like ours."The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñòv€l-B1n.
"It's just curiosity," Li Fan said indifferently, not paying attention to the strange thinking of this young girl.
"I understand, curious about someone of the same kind, it's human nature," Yin Yuzhen said, nodding repeatedly as if she understood.
Li Fan couldn't be bothered to explain further.
Yin Yuzhen sighed and said slowly, "We were originally from the northern Night Island. Our parents passed away due to disaster when we were young, leaving only my sister and me to rely on each other. In my memory, my sister and I could only beg for a living every day, barely managing to get by."
"But at some point, my sister began to always find valuable things in different places."
"Our lives gradually improved day by day, and later, my sister single-handedly established the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion," Yin Yuzhen recalled.
"Unfortunately, I haven't seen my sister for several years," she said, full of nostalgia.
"Oh? Where did she go?" Li Fan furrowed his brow.
"Three years ago, my sister caught the eye of a passing immortal and was taken away. At first, she would send messages to let us know she was safe. But later, we never heard from her again," Yin Yuzhen said, holding her chin in her hands, looking pitiful.
"Taken away by an immortal? Could it be that she was taken to cultivate immortality?" Li Fan couldn't help asking.
"That's what I hope for. In the letters my sister sent back before, she used a secret code that only the two of us understood, telling me that her current situation was very dangerous. If she doesn't contact us in the future, it means she might have met with misfortune. She asked me not to look for her anymore," Yin Yuzhen sighed, her eyes showing a hint of sadness.
Li Fan couldn't help but ask after hearing this, "Can it be that it's her special physique, the Treasure Seer Physique, that has attracted trouble?"
"This is also something I can't figure out. Although the Treasure Seer Physique is indeed very powerful, being able to sense treasures within a certain range of oneself, this ability is also limited."
"My sister is only a mortal and can sense only things that are of some value to mortals. These treasures, in the eyes of those immortals, are essentially equivalent to broken copper and iron."
"That's right." Yin Yuzhen had a triumphant expression on her face, knowing that Li Fan had taken the bait. "In the last letter from my sister, a pill named the Body Cleansing Pill was sent. According to what my sister mentioned in the letter, by taking this pill, the probability of successfully removing the miasma from the body will greatly increase. If combined with the Pure Body Spirit Pool, even at your age, there's a high chance of success."
"With such a miraculous pill, why haven't you taken it until now?" Li Fan couldn't help asking.
"Not everyone is as determined as you to cultivate immortality. My wish is to do good business and protect the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion left behind by my sister," Yin Yuzhen replied.
"Everyone has their own aspirations," Li Fan nodded slowly.
"So, do you agree?" Yin Yuzhen looked at Li Fan with hopeful eyes.
"Allow me to consider this. I will give you an answer in three days," Li Fan contemplated for a moment, not agreeing immediately.
"Alright, I'll wait for your message," Yin Yuzhen said, somewhat disappointed, but still nodded.
"Farewell!"
...
"I hope I didn't make a mistake this time."
Yin Yuzhen watched Li Fan's retreating figure, her expression becoming serious, murmuring softly.
When dealing with Li Fan, Yin Yuzhen had been playing the role of a "junior" and a "young girl."
Her intuition told her that Li Fan didn't dislike her acting this way.
Moreover, interacting with Li Fan in the capacity of a junior would make things easier to succeed.
Yin Yuzhen wasn't like her sister, possessing the ability to sense treasures innately.
However, she had her own unique traits.
Apart from her sister, Yin Yuzhen was the only one who knew that she could vaguely sense the good or bad outcomes of events since childhood.
It was precisely relying on her sister's treasure-sensing physique and her own ability to anticipate fortune and avoid calamity that the two sisters were able to grow up smoothly and prosper.
