Yin Jinye slightly narrowed his eyes. Actually Qi Lan’s guessing was not unreasonable, even he became suspicious of Bai Yunhen, “Do you know where he is now?”
“My people got shaken off by him in Beiba, so I want you to send out your ghost cultivators to help me find him.”
Yin Jinye nodded, “I will immediately send someone to handle this matter.”
Qi Lan looked into his eyes and asked, “what if it’s really him?”
Yin Jinye said flatly, “kill him.”
Qi Lan snorted, “Do you have the heart to do that?”
Yin Jinye showed a strange look. Why wouldn’t he have the heart to kill him?
“Do not forget that he is Rong Yi’s senior brother. If Rong Yi tells you not to kill him, or if he knows you are going to kill him, what are you gonna do?”
Yin Jinye, “…”
Qi Lan’s face fell, “I knew you can’t do it.”
Yin Jinye said, “If he is really Lord Shan Ze, I will work with you to deal with him.”
Qi Lan snorted, “What about Rong Yi?”
Yin Jinye asked him back, “why do you care so much about his feelings?”
“…” Qi Lan said crossly, “Why would care about his feeling? I wish you two could turn against each other because of this. If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving.”
“Wait.” Yin Jinye stood up, “Senior brother, there is something I want to ask you.”
Qi Lan taunted him, “You called me senior brother, that is a rare thing. I guess you got a favor to ask, do you?”
Yin Jinye ignored his sarcasm and asked, “if someone’s three souls and seven spirits enter into another person’s body, occupy that person body, and used it for a period of time, but after being trapped in the body, they can’t come out. Do you know how to get his three souls and seven spirits out?”
Qi Lan slightly narrowed his eyes. He is talking about Rong Yi’s situation? Rong Yi suddenly seemed to have changed to another person, became like the one those people in Haishan town talked about, timid and sissy. Was it because someone’s three souls and seven spirits occupied the body of Rong Yi?
So the current Rong Yi was the original Rong Yi. He was not pretending it. That Rong Yi he had known before was trapped in this Rong Yi’s body.
Qi Lan could nearly be sure of it, “you can use the witchcraft of ghost cultivation to suck out his souls and spirits.”
Yin Jinye shook his head, “I tried, but failed.”
“You tried?” Qi Lan now became not sure whether the Rong Yi Yin Jinye talked about was that Rong Yi he thought. If it was Rong Yi, there was no reason that he, who was already a Wandering Immortal, could not suck out the souls and spirits of a cultivator at his Qi Practicing, “Is it possible it got sealed in the body?”
“I’ve checked, and I don’t see any sign of it being sealed. I can’t check it out unless the person who sealed it is way more powerful than me.”
“If it is not sealed, it is possible that one of their souls and spirits have refined the other’, letting the their souls merge, or maybe their souls attract each other, but this possibility is very small, through the whole world, there may not be two souls attracting each other.”
Yin Jinye frowned, “the souls attract each other?”
“Their souls are like belonging to the same one. If two people meet, they may absorb each other’s souls into their own body, then slowly merge into one, and inherit each other’s memories.”
Yin Jinye thought Rong Yi’s case was quite similar as what Qi Lan said. Rong Yi’s souls and spirits were sucked into the current Rong Yi’s body.
“Do you know how to separate the two souls that attract each other?”
“There is no record in the book that separates the spirits, only saying that the stronger souls and spirits will take over and the other will disappear forever.”
Yin Jinye twisted his brows, “Which book did you read about it?”
“A book in master shifu’s scripts cabinet. You know he likes collecting strange books, whether they are true or not, they will be collected by him in the cabinet.”
The blue sinew on Yin Jinye’s forehead was wildly jumping, “so you say the whole might be false?”
Qi Lan laughed, “But it also may be true.”
Yin Jinye sat down, “You can leave.”
“You immediately drive me away after using me, you are really ruthless.”
Yin Jinye did not have time to entertain him, continued reading the books.
Qi Lan moved over and sat down in the spot that Rong Yi had taken before and asked, “Senior brother, can you tell me whose souls and spirits enters into whose body? Maybe I’ll find a way to help him.”
If it was old lady Yin, Yin Jinye absolutely would say things out without hesitation, but it was Qi Lan, with his hatred for Rong Yi, he already showed mercy not to kill him, let alone help him.
Qi Lan did not bother him, before leaving he said, “If you need, let me know.”
Yin Jinye then put the book down after he left, “Don’t hide in there.”
“Heh heh.” Rong Yi’s body came in through the window. “When I sneaked to the back of the study, you didn’t ask me out. So I took it as you allowed me to eavesdrop.”
“…” Yin Jinye knew he would not have left like that so obediently.
Rong Yi’s body asked, “Do you also think Bai Yunchen is likely to be Lord Shan Ze?”
“Not necessarily, but if we all have suspicions on him, I have to find out the truth.” Yin Jinye called Xinghe in, let him inform Xiu Zhuo and his people to look for Bai Yunchen in Beiba Prefecture.
“Qi Lan is about to take the revenge?”
Yin Jinye responded with an ‘hmm’.
“In fact…” Rong Yi’s body stopped in the middle of the sentence.
Yin Jinye looked at him, “Just say it already.”
“In fact, I think Qi Lan’s family’s deaths can not completely blame Lord Shan Ze.”
After a moment’s silence, Yin Jinye said, “You see something?”
Rong Yi’s body nodded, “I and Xiaoyi all feel this matter was planned by your father, he cheated Qi family, finally got them killed.”
Yin Jinye didn’t say anything.
Rong Yi’s body continued, “Even we all see, it not possible that Qi Lan can’t see that your father cheated his family. The reason he tried to find Lord Shan Ze only wanting to absorb his spiritual power as his own.”
“More than that.” Yin Jinye said heavily.
Rong Yi’s body saw his face turning cold, surprised, “Your father had some other purpose?”
