She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement-Chapter 308 - Suspicion

Yu Huang had taken the same route from the Divine Realm Academy to Broken Cliff. This time, it was the same route as before. The two equipped themselves and drove the vehicle towards Mo City of the Cangyuan Empire in the west.

After getting into the car, Lin Jiansheng turned on the heater. He rubbed his hands together and said, “Beast Tamers aren’t afraid of the cold, but us, Purifying Spirit Masters, are.”

Beast Tamers could use their spiritual energy to keep their bodies warm. However, Purifying Spirit Masters did not have spiritual energy. They only had spiritual power. Although spiritual power could transform into attacks, they were not as powerful as spiritual energy.

“It’s exceptionally cold this year. The night before last, the entire Holy Spirit Continent was covered in heavy snow. Even the central region of the continent was covered in snow. I heard that the Xixia Sea and the Light Sea were both frozen.”

Xixia Sea and the Light Sea were located in the central region of the Holy Spirit Continent. In the memories of the original owner, Yu Huang, there had never been snow in these two regions.

Yu Huang said, “The weather is too unpredictable. Something is very wrong.”

Lin Jiansheng nodded and said, “Many people have been frozen to death. Saint Xuan Ye set off for the central region yesterday morning to purify the frozen civilians.”

With one hand on the steering wheel and the other in her pocket, Yu Huang took out a piece of gum. She said coldly, “Saint Xuan Ye is indeed benevolent.”

Lin Jiansheng nodded and said, “He is a compassionate person. Wherever there is a disaster, he will be there.”

Yu Huang remained silent.

After turning on the heater, it was still a little cold. Lin Jiansheng took out a pack of cigarettes from his wide sleeves. He shook one out and held it in his mouth. Before he lit it, he heard Yu Huang say, “Give me one.”

Lin Jiansheng raised his eyebrows in surprise. “You smoke?”

The original owner of the body, Yu Huang, naturally didn’t smoke. However, Yu Huang smoked. During the doomsday era on Earth, Yu Huang was under a lot of stress and didn’t have any friends. As time passed, she developed the habit of smoking.

Ever since she was reborn onto the Holy Spirit Continent, Yu Huang had never smoked.

Seeing Lin Jiansheng smoking, Yu Huang suddenly wanted one too.

“Occasionally, very rarely, I would smoke a cigarette. I almost forgot the taste of cigarettes. Mentor, give me one.” Yu Huang’s mind was filled with all sorts of stuff. Smoking a cigarette would calm her down.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiansheng removed the cigarette from his mouth and stuffed it back into the cigarette box. He threw the cigarette box into the glove box and said with his head lowered, “Then I won’t smoke anymore. You youngsters should smoke less. It’s not good for your health if you smoke too much. It’s also not good for your future child.”

He was thinking too far ahead.

Yu Huang thought of the future she saw in Sheng Xiao’s eyes. She thought of the two cute children. Her desire to smoke suddenly faded.

She rubbed her palms on her thighs and suddenly said, “Mentor, help me see something.”

“Huh?” Lin Jiansheng tilted his head and asked her, “What do you want to look at?”

Yu Huang parked the car by the side. She took out a black string of beads from her pocket and handed it to Lin Jiansheng.

Lin Jiansheng held the pearl in his hand and looked at the bright light from the window for a moment before saying, “This is a black pearl. It’s only produced in the deep sea and is very rare. In the commoners’ world, a bracelet made of this black pearl is worth more than a million yuan each.”

Yu Huang would not appraise a pearl for no reason. There must be something wrong with this pearl. Lin Jiansheng asked Yu Huang, “Where did this thing come from?”

Yu Huang said, “I have a merman friend called Na Luo. Mentor, do you remember?”

“Of course I do.” Na Luo had been to the Sheng Clan with Yu Huang and had even participated in the competition for the Vermillion Jade Fruit at the Yin Clan. Merfolk were rarely seen in the Divine Realm Continent, so Lin Jiansheng had a deep impression of that little mermaid girl.

“This thing belongs to her? Is there something wrong with that little girl? Are you suspecting her?” Although Lin Jiansheng looked rough and slovenly, he was very keen.

Yu Huang pondered deeply for a moment before she nodded.

She said, “This bracelet was given to Anna by Na Luo, but Na Luo didn’t have a close relationship with Anna in the past. During my time in the Cong Lang Mystic Realm, Na Luo had been actively approaching Anna and even gave her a necklace.”

She raised her chin and nodded at the black pearl in Lin Jiansheng’s hand. “This is it.”

Yu Huang’s fingers slowly tapped on the steering wheel. She said, “I don’t know if I’m being paranoid, but I have a feeling that Na Luo is intentionally getting close to Anna. Mentor, you also know that Anna’s beast form is very special. I suspect that Na Luo has ulterior motives for getting close to Anna, so I asked for a bead from Anna. Thinking that you’re experienced and knowledgeable, I wanted you to help me.”

“It’s good to be vigilant.” Lin Jiansheng observed the bead carefully. He was a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master and could sense all evil things.

However, he did not sense anything wrong from the pearl.

“There’s nothing wrong with this thing. I don’t sense anything unclean. On the contrary, it’s warm to the touch and smells like the Deep Sea Soul Calming Grass. This thing can help people sleep. Other than that, it shouldn’t have any other use.”

Lin Jiansheng returned the pearl to Yu Huang.

Anna once said that once she put on the bracelet, she would be able to sleep peacefully and occasionally have a good dream. It seemed that she was really being paranoid.

After receiving Lin Jiansheng’s reply, Yu Huang was finally relieved. She kept the pearl and started the car again.

Lin Jiansheng unscrewed the thermos beside him and took a sip of warm water. While holding the cup, he looked at the snowy scenery on both sides of the road and asked Yu Huang, “Na Luo is your friend. Why do you suspect her?”

Yu Huang narrowed her eyes and said, “Mentor, I don’t trust anyone easily.” This was also the reason why she had formed a Blood Pact with Lin Jiansheng from the start.

She never trusted anyone easily, whether it was Na Luo or Feng Si.

“Right now, the situation is chaotic. Even Mentor and godfather can’t tell who is our friend and who is our enemy. How can I trust the people around me so easily?”

“It’s not without reason that I suspect Na Luo,” Yu Huang said as she slowed the car.

She said, “First of all, Na Luo never told us about her family. Secondly, Na Luo’s beast form is very strange. I naturally have some doubts about people of unknown origin.”

Lin Jiansheng thought about it carefully and recalled Na Luo’s performance during the Yin Clan’s battle royale. He said, “If I remember correctly, her beast form should be that of a merman. Most non-human beast-taming masters would awaken their own kind in their beast form. This is not strange. Many merfolk’s beast form is that of merfolk, while the elves’ beast form is that of angels. The beast form of the beastmen is their main beast form.”

“Is that so?” Yu Huang nodded and said, “Maybe I’m overthinking.”

They drove to Mo City’s hover car stop, only to find out that because of the heavy snowstorm, the hover car’s vision was affected and it had to stop operating.

The hover car was moving too fast. If there was a traffic accident, no one would be able to bear the losses.

Knowing that the hover car was suspended, Lin Jiansheng had no choice but to bring Yu Huang to the space station. “Tsk, it’s free for us to take the hover car. If we take the space station, we’ll have to buy tickets. It’s not worth it.”
