Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl-Chapter 249 Divine Strategy Spear Technique, Sister Lan knows it [1 more update]

Chapter 249: 249 Divine Strategy Spear Technique, Sister Lan knows it [1 more update]

Yunjing had but a few major families.

Headed by the Xiang Family, successors to the Xiang Imperial Family, followed by the Rong Family, descendants of the Great Purity Sect, the Su Family of the Taiyi Palace lineage, the Huo Family from the Divine Strategy Army, and the Lin family, hailing from the Heavenly Sound Sect.

In Yunjing, what the Five Major Families said was law.

Being born into the Huo Family and pushed by Guangxing Media under the Xiang’s Group flag was the reason Huo Ximian could do whatever she wanted in the entertainment circle.

As the father of Huo Ximian, Huo Hong had not originally intended to let her enter the entertainment industry, precisely because the industry was fraught with disputes.

But unable to withstand Huo Ximian’s insistence, he could only provide her with the best protection.

Who could have expected that this time, while filming "Treasures of The Divine Land" produced by Yunjing Television Station, not only did Huo Ximian go missing, but she also ended up in the hospital?

Huo Hong was angry like never before.

"The, the situation is like this." The assistant described vaguely, "Sister Mian only wanted to teach her a lesson, to make her understand her place. She never intended to harm anyone."

Huo Hong’s gaze turned dark, "So you’re saying this time Mianmian went missing and was dehydrated because of this little girl named Ye Wanlan?"

"But... but she doesn’t have that kind of power," the assistant struggled to say, stammering, "And that day as I and Sister Mian were walking, suddenly..."

To this moment, she still had no idea what had happened last night.

She was only a step behind Huo Ximian, but in the blink of an eye, Huo Ximian had completely vanished.

It was like some sort of supernatural event.

If the assistant hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she herself wouldn’t believe it.

"Ye Wanlan, is it? I’ll remember that." Huo Hong’s face was stern, "No matter whether Mianmian ended up in the hospital because of her, since Mianmian dislikes her that much, she can’t be anything good. I’ll get on it right away, just wait!"

The huge discovery at Yongning Palace brought great joy to the Fengyuan Archaeological Team as well.

The team leader asked the most crucial question, "If this secret room has something, then do the remaining ones contain things we’ve yet to uncover?"

If that were true, then the entire Underground Palace was a treasure trove!

"Not sure," Ye Wanlan said, "but there’s a seventy percent chance they do."

Seventy percent!

That probability was already very high.

The team leader’s expression brightened, his attitude very respectful, "I wonder if Miss Ye could—"

"Hey, wait, hold on!" Professor Xue, seeing that things were heading in an unwanted direction, quickly interjected, "Wanlan still has to film the show, you can study the recipes for months, and there’s no rush to excavate the rest."

He was worried firstly about Ye Wanlan overexerting herself, and secondly that if everything was uncovered all at once, a select few individuals wouldn’t be able to handle the excitement.

What if someone fainted? He was looking out for their well-being!

"Hmm, let me finish filming the show first, and if there’s anything I can help with, I will." Ye Wanlan thought for a moment, "You can start by trying to find similar mechanisms on the walls. I can teach you some patterns and methods."

He Jia’s proficiency in Mechanical Techniques was extremely advanced. The patterns he built into his techniques were not fixed and were always changing.

Even she had to examine them closely.

"No problem, that’s great!" The team leader was ecstatic, "Then we’ll trouble Miss Ye."

Professor Xue rolled his eyes, "Look at you, acting as if you’ve never seen the world."

This comment left Professor Li beside him speechless.

He finally understood how Professor Foo felt.

Since meeting Ye Wanlan, Professor Xue had become increasingly smug.

Ye Wanlan silently wrote down several rules of Mechanical Techniques and handed them to the team leader, who immediately instructed the team members responsible for mechanism surveying to start learning.

At Ye Wanlan’s suggestion, the program team hired a few more chefs to make the recipes a reality.

Shen Yeqiu and Xu Qingyu also joined in, adding interactive performances to make the chefs’ cooking process more entertaining.

The director was very satisfied.

With or without Huo Ximian, it was the same!

No, this proved that without Huo Ximian, the show could proceed more smoothly.

"Director, I asked," Qi Yunzhao rushed over, wiping the sweat from his forehead, "Ximian has been hospitalized, and she hasn’t woken up yet. There’s no telling when she’ll recover."

The director replied blandly, "Then let’s remove all her shots from the first episode. If she can’t make it to the second episode, we won’t include her there either."

Qi Yunzhao felt a jolt in his heart upon hearing these words, but he silently agreed and said nothing more.

Qi Yunzhao scanned the surroundings and didn’t see Ye Wanlan. He couldn’t help but ask, "Director, where’s Miss Ye?"

"She’s with her assistant," the director replied offhandedly, "The filming for the Scholastic Group is done; of course, Miss Ye needs to rest."

Qi Yunzhao smiled awkwardly and wisely chose not to say anything more.

Clouds surged in the sky, and the wind suddenly picked up, bringing with it the unique coolness of autumn.

Along the lengthy street, Ye Wanlan and Yan Tingfeng walked side by side.

Neither spoke, but the moment was serene and beautiful.

Suddenly, Yan Tingfeng asked, "Xiao Wan, why don’t you keep a single one of the recipes you discover for yourself?"

Ye Wanlan was slightly taken aback.

After a long, long silence, she said softly, "Because I want more people to see them, keeping them to myself doesn’t hold much meaning. I have seen them, which means I have possessed them, and there’s nothing to regret."

He Jia left behind so few things, and because he was a man of few words, expressing himself only through actions, outsiders often found it hard to sense his emotions.

He was indeed decisive and cold-hearted in killing, but he was definitely not heartless.

Historians of later generations indeed said that the King of Yan was cruel and tyrannical, a murderer without conscience, and this view wasn’t a low whisper in the field of history.

She was He Jia’s full-blooded younger sister. If she didn’t clear his name, then who would?

With these historical records, it was enough to prove that the King of Yan wasn’t as cold-blooded as described by these historians.

"I have seen them, which means I have possessed them...," Yan Tingfeng repeated softly to himself, then suddenly smiled, "I still need to learn a lot from Xiao Wan’s state of mind."

"You get used to it when you see a lot," Ye Wanlan said, "I don’t have anything else today, so let’s go back."

Inside the ancient city, a hotel.

"Pretty Sister? Pretty Sister!" Huo Yungui ran in excitedly, but upon seeing Rong Yu, he showed some displeasure. "Why is it you? Where is my Pretty Sister?"

Rong Yu’s eyes darkened: "Why haven’t you left yet? It’s October; aren’t you going to school?"

"That shows what you know," Huo Yungui said proudly, hands on hips. "I already passed the Shenzhou University’s youth selection exam. I’m just waiting for next year to take the entrance exam and go directly to Shenzhou University."

Rong Yu was greatly surprised and sized up Huo Yungui: "You? Shenzhou University?"

This kid actually has such intelligence?!

"Don’t underestimate people, okay?" Huo Yungui huffed. "Only someone smart like me can win the heart of the Pretty Sister. Hey, Pretty Sister, you’re back!"

Rong Yu: "..."

If he couldn’t stop this young member of the Huo Family from seeking his own doom, then he might as well sit back and watch the drama unfold!

Ye Wanlan nodded slightly in acknowledgment: "Why haven’t you gone back to Yunjing?"

"Don’t bring that up. It’s my second brother; he came back home to stay for a while." Huo Yungui waved his hand. "I’m a bit annoyed by him and don’t want to see the guy recently."

"Your second brother?" Rong Yu asked curiously. "Buddha’s Son of the Capital Circle?"

"Yeah," Huo Yungui thought for a moment. "I heard the housekeeper mention once that my brother likes women in Qipao, because once a woman in Qipao went to see him, he didn’t refuse to meet her and even spent quite a long time with her."

"Cough cough cough!" Rong Yu choked and coughed thunderously. "What’s all this nonsense? Your Huo Family really plays dirty."

"Nonsense. I’m a gentleman with integrity," Huo Yungui retorted angrily. "Don’t slander me in front of Pretty Sister!"

Ye Wanlan turned her head: "Being from the Huo Family, can you perform the Divine Strategy Spear Technique?" fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

For the first time, Huo Yungui showed an expression of surprise and hesitation: "This, this... Pretty Sister, about the Divine Strategy Spear Technique..."

"Don’t worry, I was just asking casually," Ye Wanlan said. "There’s no need to answer me."

"No, it’s not like it’s a secret, why can’t I talk about it? The Elders Council is always unnecessarily worried about everything," Huo Yungui retorted. "Of course, I know the Divine Strategy Spear Technique. Although the Huo Family claims to the outside world that it’s lost, all core family members including some elite members of the guard team possess it."

Ye Wanlan nodded slightly: "It seems, then, the situation is the same with the Su Family."

So, the inheritance of the various major sects is about the same in today’s progress.

"Our situation at home is different," Rong Yu shrugged. "After all, adeptness in Divination really requires talent. Even being from the direct lineage, I may not have as much talent as a collateral branch."

"I’ve heard that the Divine Strategy Spear Technique, like the Taiyi Acupuncture Technique, has nine parts," Ye Wanlan continued. "How many parts does the Huo Family currently have?"

"I’m not too clear on that," Huo Yungui scratched his head. "I’ve already finished the third part, but my big brother is way stronger than I am. I don’t know how far he has advanced; the elders always say he has the grace of Marshal Huo from the past."

Rong Yu nodded: "Your big brother truly is formidable."

"I’m formidable too!" Huo Yungui puffed out his chest and then turned his head excitedly. "Pretty Sister, let’s have dinner together tonight!"

Rong Yu: "..."

Hopelessly naive.

Meanwhile, Huo Hong boarded a private plane and rushed to Fengyuan at the fastest speed possible.

His daughter Huo Ximian was still unconscious but, at last, was out of immediate danger.

Huo Hong was very distressed and, despite it being late evening, around eight or nine, immediately stormed to the stationed site of the television production team.

The director was discussing the next day’s shooting matters with the assistant director and was startled at his arrival: "Mr. Huo?"

"I don’t care whether she’s the Cultural Relics Bureau’s candidate or not," Huo Hong’s eyes flashed coldly, as he pressed aggressively. "If you want to film the real Divine Strategy Spear Technique, then you must replace this Ye Wanlan!"
