Supernatural Insight Eyes

"Junior Sister, Junior Sister, your brother has come looking for you!"

Jin Zhimo was resting when she heard someone knocking on the door, reminding her.

Is it him?

The image of Ye Qiu appeared in Jin Zhimo’s mind.

"Hurry on then, the teacher is talking with your brother. Wow, you have such a remarkable brother, it’s truly enviable."

"Thank you, Senior Sister, I’ll go in a while." Jin Zhimo got up, dressed, and washed her face with clear water.

A fake brother’s identity, that man should have told the teacher, right? After all, he just wanted to help her back then and stand up for her.

With complex emotions, Jin Zhimo went to the teacher’s residence and saw Ye Qiu and the teacher having a pleasant conversation.

"Zhimo, come here," the elder beckoned when he saw Jin Zhimo had arrived.

"Teacher." Jin Zhimo obediently nodded, and then her gaze turned to Ye Qiu. She didn’t know what to say, and calling him brother truly didn’t feel right; she didn’t even know who Ye Qiu was.

"Zhimo, you really kept it from me, having a Pill Master brother like Ye. It’s your fortune; he’s been looking for you. Alright, you and your brother have not met for a while, so have a chat."

After speaking, the elder left with a smile, leaving space for the two.

"He’s been looking for me?" Jin Zhimo was a bit confused. She indeed didn’t know this man; could it be Brother Jin Shanshun? Impossible! If it were Jin Shanshun, she would have recognized it long ago, not to mention that even the appearance was different.

"Zhimo." Ye Qiu spoke, seeing the panic in Jin Zhimo’s expression. He could guess she must be extremely puzzled at this moment.

For some reason, when Ye Qiu called her "Zhimo," Jin Zhimo shivered.

This tone, this voice, sounded so familiar.

Jin Zhimo looked at Ye Qiu. This Sang Ying was obviously different from before and resembled someone, someone who shouldn’t be here.

"You... you... are..."

Ye Qiu wiped his face, revealing his original features. That chiseled face could only belong to Ye Qiu.

"Teach... Teacher..." Jin Zhimo was stunned. She never expected Ye Qiu would appear in the ancestral land, standing right in front of her.

"It’s me." Ye Qiu looked at Jin Zhimo and said.

The long-forgotten voice, the long-absent person, upon seeing Ye Qiu again, the sense of isolation Jin Zhimo felt from being adrift alone in the world was instantly shattered by Ye Qiu’s presence.

She was not alone anymore.

Jin Zhimo suddenly ran to Ye Qiu and embraced him.

"Don’t cry."

Ye Qiu heard Jin Zhimo’s sobs, her tears soaking his clothes.

After a long embrace, Ye Qiu smiled and said, "It’s alright, I’m here now. No worries."

Jin Zhimo’s face flushed slightly; she had never been so close with Ye Qiu. Just now, in the swell of emotions, she thought she was the last person left in this world; seeing Ye Qiu suddenly appear, she became overly excited and dashed forward to hold Ye Qiu.

Now that she calmed down, she couldn’t bring herself to embrace him again, feeling shy about it.

"Teacher... how are you also in this world?" Jin Zhimo was genuinely curious because back then on the spaceship, only a few people from the ancient land were present, and there was no Ye Qiu.

According to Jin Zhimo’s knowledge, the distance between Earth and the ancestral land was quite far, not like the proximity between Earth and the moon.

With this situation, how could Ye Qiu appear in the ancestral land? Her heart was filled with questions.

Ye Qiu briefly explained that after the small world of the ancient land shattered, he tried countless methods to find everyone. Later, he used a Formation to teleport here, and as for what happened after arriving in the ancestral land, he glossed over.

"What about you, how did you become a disciple of the Pill Tower?" Ye Qiu smiled. He had chatted with Jin Zhimo’s teacher earlier but didn’t ask how she became a disciple of the Pill Tower, fearing it would expose her Earthly origins.

If anyone knew she wasn’t originally from the ancestral land, it might provoke hostility from others.

Jin Zhimo didn’t hide anything and recounted how she came to the ancestral land, was rescued, and explained everything, helping Ye Qiu understand.

As for the other people’s whereabouts, Jin Zhimo didn’t know. When she woke up, she was alone.

Ye Qiu sighed. Finding everyone else still needed to continue. He just hoped that, like Jin Zhimo, they’d encounter good people and be saved.

The two chatted for a long time, and Ye Qiu shared with Jin Zhimo that he had found Shangguan Mingyue and Zhang Shanfeng. Jin Zhimo was happy for Ye Qiu.

"Oh, right, Teacher, I’ve been trying to gather news about everyone in the Pill Tower these days. Although I haven’t found anyone, I did encounter someone you are familiar with." Jin Zhimo suddenly said.

"Not everyone, but someone I know?" Ye Qiu frowned.

"Teacher, you haven’t forgotten, have you? There is an auction house in the ancient land, called Yun Shang Palace." Jin Zhimo smiled.

"You’re talking about Yun Shang Palace?" Ye Qiu’s eyes flashed as he thought of Boss Yun and Wu Yang, who had all helped him greatly.

On Earth, Wu Yang said they received a message to return to their family and could leave the ancient land through a Formation. Ye Qiu knew this.

He never expected to hear news of the two so soon.

"Where are they? Are they doing well?" Ye Qiu asked eagerly.

"I saw Wu Yang coming to the Pill Tower that day, but I didn’t reveal myself. I overheard a strange name."

"Tell me."

"I recall that back then, Wu Yang was following someone, and that person mentioned the term ’Heavenly Palace.’

Ye Qiu felt a jolt of excitement!

Heavenly Palace!

Could it be that Wu Yang and Boss Yun are part of the Heavenly Palace?

This shocking news made Ye Qiu feel a bit at a loss. In the ancient land, they had weathered hardships together and could have even been considered comrades in life and death. However, now hearing that Wu Yang and Boss Yun were backed by the Heavenly Palace, a formidable institution against the Du Gu family, it shifted their relationship from allies to adversaries.

"Teacher, do you know about the Heavenly Palace?" Jin Zhimo noted the change in Ye Qiu’s expression with concern.

Ye Qiu forced a smile: "I know a bit, it’s fine."

"As long as it’s fine. As long as you trace the Heavenly Palace, you’ll find them. By then, let Wu Yang help look for others; it will be much easier," Jin Zhimo said.

Ye Qiu didn’t say much. If Wu Yang and Boss Yun were indeed in the Heavenly Palace now, he had to rethink things.

Once exposed, would they still treat him the same, or would they turn against him?

Everything remained unknown.

Whether their minds had changed, Ye Qiu couldn’t tell, but deep down, he wanted to believe in Wu Yang and Boss Yun, that they wouldn’t turn against him.

With many thoughts swirling in his mind, Ye Qiu rubbed his temples. He had to investigate personally. No matter what, he needed to meet Wu Yang and Boss Yun again.

They had helped him so much, and although their relationship was cooperative, if it weren’t for Wu Yang, he would have died countless times.

"I hope things aren’t as bad as I think," Ye Qiu thought to himself.

...

Ye Qiu and Zhuang Miao Shan left the Pill Tower, with Ye Qiu not letting Jin Zhimo follow. Staying at the Pill Tower was much safer for her than following him.

On the way, Zhuang Miao Shan was exceedingly joyful.

His disciple turned out to be a gifted Alchemist, and a Divine Grade Alchemist at that. Naturally, the most exciting aspect for Zhuang Miao Shan was the importance the tower master of the Pill Tower placed on Ye Qiu.

The master even invited Ye Qiu to join the Pill Tower as the sixth elder!

"Haha..." Thinking about it, Zhuang Miao Shan couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter.

The disciple he took in was simply extraordinarily impressive!
