Jian Junru placed her hands on Jian Sheng’s shoulders, her fingers trembling slightly.
“Big brother, is the situation this serious?”
Jian Jun Tan gave a bitter smile. “After all, the Zhang family stands behind them.”
“Little sister, you’ve been away from home since you were young and don’t understand the power dynamics of the capital.”
“The Han family alone is enough to give us trouble, and with the Zhang family added…”
“We must avenge father, but before we do, we must plan our escape route!”
Jian Jun Tan finished speaking sternly, then suddenly smiled and asked,
“I heard that Sheng Sheng’s father also came to the capital? And that he found some of the masterminds behind the online incident last time?”
Jian Jun Ru nodded.
Jian Jun Tan gently patted her shoulder.
“I don’t know what kind of love and hate entanglements you have, but purely based on this matter, he seems like a decent person.”
“If you have time, bring him to visit.”
Jian Jun Ru’s expression suddenly changed.
Her eldest brother’s tone, which sounded like he was making arrangements for his departure, made her premonition grow stronger.
Seeing her nervousness, Jian Jun Tan smiled and comforted her,
“Little sister, you don’t need to worry too much. It’s just a suspicion; it might not be them.”
“And according to what Sheng Sheng said, they didn’t destroy father’s soul after extracting it, which means they still have some plans.”
A hint of ferocity flashed in Jian Jun Tan’s eyes:
“Although they severely injured our Jian family a few years ago, I will let them know that with our Jian family’s heritage, we are not to be trifled with!”
Jian Jun Yu thought of Sheng Sheng’s relationship with the Qi family and hesitated to speak.
He felt that given Qi Sui Bai’s relationship with Sheng Sheng, if Sheng Sheng asked for help, the Qi family would surely be willing to lend a hand.
But then he thought that no matter how high Qi Sui Bai’s status was, he was only a grandchild in the Qi family.
And what did their Jian family have that would make the Qi family offend the Zhang family to help them?
Sighing, Jian Jun Yu dismissed the idea of seeking help from Qi Sui Bai in his heart.
Jian Jun Tan also turned his gaze to him at that moment.
“During this period, if you have nothing to do, go abroad and travel. Find some inspiration.”
“Big brother, I understand.”
Jian Jun Tan nodded with relief.
He walked to the old master’s side.
The old master’s complexion had improved considerably. He still quietly looked at the potted plant in front of him.
He seemed oblivious to Jian Jun Tan’s arrival.
Jian Jun Tan skillfully massaged the old master’s shoulders.
The old master grunted a couple of times and narrowed his eyes.
From time to time, he would remind Jian Jun Tan to adjust the pressure, either lighter or heavier.
The pressure on his shoulders made the old master drowsy. Jian Jun Tan saw that the time was right and stopped his actions.
“Father, it is my fault that you have been in a daze for so long.”
“Rest assured, I will find the person who extracted your soul and swear to make them pay the price!”
He lowered the backrest of the recliner for the old master and brought a blanket to cover him.
The few of them tiptoed out of the room.
“I will have the family members keep their mouths shut. You should come back less often from now on.”
Jian Jun Yu and Jian Jun Ru responded with complex expressions.
Jian Sheng also followed with an “Oh.”
Jian Jun Tan pinched her cheek. “Knowing so many things, has it made Sheng Sheng unhappy?”
Jian Sheng shook her head and said with puffed cheeks, “I can help too! I’m the professional in this regard!”
Jian Jun Tan chuckled. “Sheng Sheng is indeed very professional, but have you ever thought, Sheng Sheng.”
“The opponent can use evil techniques like soul extraction, so they are definitely not good people. What if you encounter him?”
Jian Sheng said matter-of-factly, “Of course, I’ll slay demons and protect the righteous!”
Everyone was speechless.
Such a young child, and she knew so much.
But they had to take Jian Jun Tan’s words seriously.
If it were about power, their Jian family would go all out to make the other party suffer.
But since the other party had supernatural means, how could they resist?
Sheng Sheng was indeed an extraordinary existence, but unless Sheng Sheng’s “master” behind her stepped forward.
How could a child like Sheng Sheng, who had only learned magic for a few years, compare to an enemy who had cultivated for many years?
If they dragged Sheng Sheng into it, Sheng Sheng’s “master” might help them, but their favorability would surely drop to the lowest point.
Therefore, the best approach was to pretend not to know that Sheng Sheng possessed supernatural abilities.
Jian Jun Tan patiently explained, “Sheng Sheng, the opponent is too strong. We will lie low for now.”
He hoped Sheng Sheng could understand.
Jian Sheng did understand.
However, she wasn’t looking down on anyone.
In the cultivation world, anyone with good information knew about a little ancestor who had lived for over three hundred years.
The little ancestor’s strength was a mystery, but countless powerful figures supported her from behind.
Those who hadn’t heard of her basically had no background and no strength.
She could defeat a group by herself!
As Jian Sheng’s thoughts moved, a pile of jade talismans appeared in her embrace.
Even though they had already witnessed Sheng Sheng’s various unbelievable abilities, seeing her conjure so many jade tokens out of thin air still surprised them.
They didn’t know what Sheng Sheng was taking out so many jade talismans for.
Jian Sheng, holding the pile of jade talismans, said, “These are specially made jade talismans. They can resist any damage below the Golden Core stage, and they will automatically replenish their spiritual energy when it is depleted.”
“Mommy, Eldest Uncle, Second Uncle, Cousin, Maternal Grandfather, Maternal Grandmother, each gets one.”
Jian Jun Tan’s mouth fell open.
Although he didn’t know what the Golden Core stage was, the fact that they could resist damage made him realize the preciousness of these jade talismans.
Jian Jun Tan quickly said, “Sheng Sheng, take them back quickly. If we accept them, I’m afraid your master will beat me to death.”
Jian Sheng blinked in confusion. “What master?”
Jian Jun Tan: “…The master who gave you these things and taught you magic!”
Jian Sheng: “But I don’t have a master?”
The grandfathers and uncles in the cultivation world, although they were her teachers in a way, she truly didn’t have a master.
She used to be a hot potato. Whoever took her as a disciple would become a target.
Later, the situation changed slightly, but she had also become the pampered darling of the cultivation world.
It was roughly equivalent to being everyone’s treasure, and no one could hoard her.
So, whatever she wanted to learn, she would directly find someone who knew how to do it.
No one in the cultivation world would stop her.
The jade talismans in her hand were made by a grandfather in the cultivation world who taught her how to make them.
When he taught her, the old master disdained the low-level jade talismans he made, and he gave them all to her.
Jian Jun Tan and the others, not understanding the inside story, looked at each other speechlessly upon hearing her words.
If she didn’t have a master, then perhaps she was a registered disciple or something?
In that case, it seemed even more impossible to accept them!
What if Sheng Sheng’s potential master saw his little disciple turning her back on him and, in a fit of anger, decided not to accept her as a disciple?
