Chapter 50: The Wonderful Misunderstanding

  No!

  Just as Ye Huan was leading Sally out of the small woods, Gu Yi suddenly went crazy and chased up, grasping Ye Huan's wrist with one hand.

  "Old Gu, kind-hearted Dan Ge once said that being a person is about keeping one's word, let alone someone as important as you?" Ye Huan frowned, "The Ninth Prince is right outside, and more than a dozen people have witnessed the situation here, with evidence to boot. Do you think you can deny it?"

  "My identity, can I rely on it?!" Gou Yizhang patted Little Sally's head with one hand, as if he wanted to say something, but was hesitant and unsure of how to start. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said: "Ye Huan, today I lost to you, and I admit defeat willingly. I, Gou Yizhang, am not someone who can't afford to lose. However... however, you must remember that no matter what happens in the future, no matter what this child tells you, you absolutely cannot remove the chain from her neck!"

  "Gu Lao, are you asking me to continue bullying a child?" Ye Huan's voice turned cold.

  "Ah, ah!" Gu Yi stomped his foot anxiously and was also infuriated by Ye Huan's mocking words. He scolded fiercely, "At my age of over a hundred years, can't I even deceive a little kid like you? Ye Huan, whether you believe it or not, I'll tell you one thing: this child looks only three or four years old, but she is someone I obtained eighty years ago. As for the rest... figure it out yourself!"

  After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, without even caring about the dozen or so servants.

  "Eighty years ago?"

  Kai didn't need to tell lies, Ye Huan's gaze slowly fell, staring at the small Sally who looked like she was only three or four years old, "You... have existed for nearly a hundred years?"

  "Big brother, Sally doesn't remember anything..." The little guy's eyes turned red, "Sally only remembers that when she opened her eyes that day, there was an iron chain around her neck. Grandfather Gu had a whip, hammer and treasure sword, it seemed like he wanted to kill Sally! He also made Sally eat some dead person's things..."

  What a pitiful child!

  "Yehuan couldn't bear to ask any more, 'Sally, don't cry, let's talk slowly later, okay?' Smiling, Yehuan called out again: 'Never mind what Gu Yu says, Dandan, come and help me unlock the chain!'"

  "Brother, how can you be so cruel!" Dandan covered her face.

  "What's wrong?" Ye Huan was stunned for a moment, "Can't you even open such an ordinary lock chain?"

  "Brother, Dandan takes back what she said earlier, Dandan was wrong and misled you... Dandan feels embarrassed pointing at the iron chain, "Seeing this iron chain, Dandan finally understands that this little girl is definitely not killed by Gu Yi's hand, and she isn't even a ghost child created by Gu Yi... because Gu Yi doesn't have such skills!"

  "Huh?"

  Ye Huan picked up the chain and was surprised to find that on this ordinary iron chain, there were some small red patterns, like a small symbol.

  "See that? Brother, this is the Soul-Locking Curse of the Ancient Runes, lost for seven or eight hundred years. Even if Su Tianhe were to use his skills, he wouldn't be able to open it! Dandan sighed bitterly: "Gu Yiwu just now really wasn't lying, this little girl has existed for at least several hundred years, maybe even older than me... Ah, I, Dandan, can't help but compose a poem..."

  Ye Huan's heart was pounding slightly.

  A little ghost who has existed for hundreds of years actually fell into her own hands by mistake...

  "Big brother, quickly help Lily unlock the chain, Lily is in pain..." The little guy begged, with pitiful big eyes that could almost melt everyone's heart.

  It's just as well that Ye Huan didn't have the ability to open it, or else he would have really opened this lock. He squeezed out a smile, "Lily, did you hear what this tone-deaf big brother said? He doesn't have the ability to help you open this lock, let's think of another way later, okay?"

  "Oh..." The little guy pouted, "Alright then, from now on, Lily will follow Big Brother around like she did with Grandpa Gu, and be a prophet for Big Brother, okay?"

  Prophet?

  Yes, Ye Huan only realized now that this little girl was also a pretty good prophet. Having her by his side almost made him not have to worry about being exposed anymore! Praise Dandan Ge, just now he rescued the little girl out of righteous indignation, and really hadn't thought she would have such an advantage!

  Haha, from now on, for matters below the level of a first-class Yuan Shen master, I can genuinely and authentically divine them myself!

  "Lily, what should I do?" Surprised and delighted, Ye Huan hastily tried to put away the little female ghost.

  "Alright, like this!" The little girl didn't wait for Ye Huan to act, she herself grabbed the lock chain on her neck, one end still firmly locked on her own neck, and the other segment was a living buckle, buckled on Ye Huan's right wrist.

  Wow!

  When Ye Huan put on the other end of the chain, the little girl suddenly disappeared, and the chain also disappeared. However, her voice came from the darkness, "Big brother, from now on, Lily will be your ghost shadow by your side. Without your command, no living person can see Lily. If you want to make Lily appear, just speak directly!"

  "Brother!"

  Ye Huan hadn't had time to speak, when Dan Dan suddenly jumped up with a start, "How can this be? How can there be another woman by your side? Dan Dan's heart is shattered. From now on, will brother's tenderness and warmth have to be divided in half with this woman?"

  "Come on... Can't you be a bit more normal? I'm not gay!" Ye Huan rubbed his forehead weakly, he really had no way to deal with this Korean drama leftover syndrome of his mother's.

  "Ah-ha!" He suddenly remembered a phrase that Gu Yiwu had once said, "When the person dies, their soul disappears. When the master dies, the mother's soul will also disappear. Even if I use my hypnosis technique, it can only make them exist for another hour or two... But, Dandan, you're still alive? Your first-generation master hasn't died yet?"

  "The first generation master?" Dan Dan smiled vaguely, "Too ancient, even I've forgotten, bro, you know..."

  ……

  Outside the small forest at this time.

  Giggs, Glace and several other followers of the Savior were waiting anxiously, but a luxurious fleet had already appeared beside them, led by a white unicorn with a young man in his early twenties on its back.

  His dark brown skin and afro hair made him look like a sturdy black athlete before the Great Calamity. He sat on his unicorn, gazing deeply at the entrance of the small forest, but unfortunately, the fog was too thick to see what was going on inside where the great duel between prophets took place.

  Behind the young man, Jiggs whispered, "General, what you just said, is it true that the Ninth Prince intentionally let Ye Huan take on the role of Black Robe Country Master? I'm not smart, don't deceive me!"

  "If it's false, would the Ninth Prince invite Gu Yishou? "Gleis lowered his voice and said: "The greater the expectation, the greater the test. The Ninth Prince's expectations for Ye Huan are not just a simple black-robed national teacher!"

  "Anything else?" Gidget's little eyes twinkled, bursting with golden light.

  "Think of Su Tianhe, standing behind the First Emperor for 120 years, how many internal coups have been crushed, and how many powerful enemies have been defeated on the battlefield? The first prophet of New Humanity also created the first empire in the western continent! "Gleis sighed, "Ye Huan is worthy of being compared to Su Tianhe. The Ninth Prince's expectations for him are naturally to open up new territories and become a legendary black-robed emperor!"

  "Black Robed Emperor's Teacher? You're referring to the kind that hides behind an emperor, points out the mountains and rivers, reverses the continent's history, and is called the Shadow Emperor by the commoners, the truly powerful guy?" Jiggs laughed even more happily, and even more directly "Then how much gold coins can I earn?"

  Gleis had long prepared a small package, stuffed it into Jiggs' wide cloak, patted Jiggs on the shoulder, "You know what kind of person the Ninth Prince is, when has he ever been stingy with money?"

  Just then, Gu Yan walked out of the small woods with one hand.

  "Old Gu, how's it going!"

  The young man with black curly hair immediately flashed and rushed over, bowing deeply, "Ye Huan's true strength may be comparable to yours!"

  "Me?" Guan Yizhi's face turned pale and his expression was dispirited, "I've grown old..."

  This undoubtedly means that he is no longer worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Ye Huan! The young man's eyes lit up, "That can be compared to Hastings, the first prophet behind my brother's empire!"

  Gu Yan let out a sigh and said, "Nowadays, the era belongs to young people, I'm outdated, Heistin is also outdated..."

  "Is he comparable to Su Tianhe?" The young man's tone was already urgent and uneasy.

  "Maybe... I'm not qualified to evaluate a prophet like Su Tianhe, but I can tell you that there are some things that Su Tianhe can't do, but Ye Huan did, right in front of me!"

  Gao Yi let out a long sigh, walking towards the distant horizon. "Don't come looking for me again. Only now do I understand what true divination is, what a real prophet is. Ha! There really are people who can change the future, who can seize control of heaven and earth's creation, altering the great universe's future laws!"

  Of course, this sentence is an exclamation. Ye Huan just showed the ability to 'change the future of the mother's soul', but Gu Yizhang has already lost his emotions and spoke nonsense, which was immediately understood by young people as another meaning!

  "Change the future? Ye Huan can even change the future..." The young man took a deep breath, "In other words, even if I'm not made crown prince in the future, he can still help me change everything and turn things around?"

  "Hey, everyone!" Ye Huan finally walked out of the woods, with a light step and a relaxed expression, looking nothing like someone who had just gone through a big battle.

  "Master!"

  The young man stood at the crossroads, seemingly wanting to bow down. After some thought, he realized that the person in front of him could turn the tide of fate, and even if not a prince, could be made into one. With a flick of his yellow robe, he adopted the half-kneeling etiquette of a senior, "Kanam Empire, Ninth Prince, Xerxes, has seen Master Ye!"
