Chapter 1337 Asking for help
"So your lifespan of several hundred years is also due to the influence of alien genes. Could it be that you are also a member of the Kagyu tribe?" Si Teng asked in surprise.

Lin Hao poked Si Teng's head in an annoyed tone and said:

"What are you thinking? You are a plant awakening, and I might be a human awakening, except that we were fused with the same genes!"

Having lived in modern society for so many days, I have basically learned what I need to know, so I naturally understand what Lin Hao meant by "genes".

"So you mean that the so-called Suspended Masters are actually the same kind as our Kai tribe!" Si Teng felt incredulous, even somewhat unable to accept it.

Lin Hao shook his head and said, "This is just a wild theory of mine. As for whether we are the same kind of people, I don't really know. These are just my guesses!"

"Moreover, one of their underlying genes comes from humans, and the other comes from plants. I don't think they are the same kind of people, or perhaps they are the same kind of people in a broader sense!"

Si Teng Feng frowned deeply. She had roamed the world for so many years, but she had never heard of such a saying.

However, upon closer reflection, it does make a lot of sense. If plants can evolve due to extraterrestrial genes, why can't humans?

Then, Si Teng looked at Lin Hao suspiciously: "If that's the case, how old are you? You're not some ancient monster who's lived for hundreds of years, are you?"

Lin Hao was speechless: "How could I live that long? I'm only 28 years old!"

When he gained the ability to travel through time, he was indeed only twenty-eight years old. No matter how long he stayed in those various worlds, he could only go back for an hour.

Especially after he received life energy, time became just a number to him, and his body was forever fixed at the peak state of 25 years old.

At this moment, Lin Hao stared straight into Si Teng's eyes: "By the way, now you have no more worries, right? How about marrying me?"

Si Teng's pretty face flushed slightly, and she said somewhat flusteredly, "I, I don't know, let me think about it!"

Lin Hao smiled and said softly, "Okay, I'm not in a hurry. Anyway, you're destined to be my woman for life!"

While Lin Hao and Si Teng were chatting, on the other side, President Cang Hong and others finally found the Huang family members who could undo the Teng Sha.

Many years ago, before Qiu Shan killed "Si Teng", he invited Huang Yu, the head of the Huang family at the time, to help him.

The Huang family participated in eliminating Si Teng, so how could they not know how to cure Si Teng's killer?
However, over the years, the Huang family had moved several times, which is why Cang Hong had to search for them for so long.

The Huang family's secret technique has always been passed down to daughters, not sons. By the third generation, there were no granddaughters, and the lineage was about to die out.

Fortunately, they arrived in time. Huang Yu's daughter, Huang Cuilan, was still alive and well, and she happened to have a way to break the vine-killing spell.

A group of people, except for Bai Jin and Yan Furui, were all dressed in black robes and mysteriously entered the Huang family's secret chamber.

Seeing this, someone unfamiliar with the situation might think it was some kind of cult gathering.

Outside the secret chamber, the disciples locked the door to prevent anyone from entering and disturbing them.

Watching the numerous divination masters help Wang Qiankun into the secret chamber, Yan Furui paced back and forth in the courtyard, somewhat dejected, muttering to himself:

"As the person directly involved in this whole affair, and the only descendant of the Nebula Pavilion, I am truly ashamed to be confined to the outside!"

"Bai the big liar!" Looking up, Yan Furui realized that Bai Jin hadn't gone in either, and quickly went up to greet him.
"Mr. Bai, why don't you go inside?"

"Xiao Yan!" Bai Jin responded, then said somewhat apologetically, "Well, I won't go in and cause any more trouble!"

Yan Furui asked in confusion, "Why?"

He then sat down on the steps with Bai Jin, who said somewhat shyly:

"Although I am a descendant of the Bai family of the Suspended Gate, I don't know any techniques at all!"

"Hehe~!" At this point, the two laughed at the same time. Since neither of them knew the technique, they felt like they were both in the same boat.

"I came here purely out of curiosity. I do live streaming for people, so I came to broaden my horizons and accumulate more material for storytelling!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Furui turned his face away, feeling somewhat speechless. Not only did he lack magical powers like himself, but he was also a scoundrel. Thus, an eerie silence fell over the room.

"Hey, Xiao Yan, I think you're quite interesting too!" Seeing that Yan Furui didn't answer, Bai Jin had no choice but to take the initiative to start a conversation:

"Since you can't go in anyway, let's chat here for a while. It'll help us pass the time, isn't that nice?"

"Sigh!" Yan Furui said, somewhat dejected.
"It's shameful to admit, but as a member of the Suspended Gate, I'm completely useless. How embarrassing!"

Platinum comforted her, "It's not shameful, it's all the same."

Yan Furui sighed and said:

"Me? I hold such a high seniority. I'm Qiu Shan's disciple. That's why I'm ranked so high, higher than everyone else!"

At this point, Yan Furui stared intently at Bai Jin: "He seems to be taller than you, doesn't he?"

Instantly, Platinum's smile froze, and he turned his head away. He didn't want to chat with this guy anymore; he had killed the conversation.

Inside the secret chamber, the five members, including President Cang Hong, were arranged in a regular pentagonal formation, holding ritual implements and sitting on prayer mats on the ground with candles lit in front of them. Wang Qiankun sat in the middle of the five.

Then, the crowd chanted incantations and began to perform the spell.

"Master Yan, have a cup of milk tea!" On the steps outside the secret room, bored Bai Jin bought two cups of milk tea and started chatting with Yan Furui again.

After accepting the milk tea, Yan Furui said apologetically, "How could I let Mr. Bai spend so much money!"

"Hey, it's only right that I'm of a higher generation!" Bai Jin said with a smile.

After taking two sips, Yan Furui couldn't help but say:
"Speaking of which, it's fortunate that Old Madam Huang knows how to dispel the Vine Killing Technique, otherwise, our Suspended Sect would have completely lost face!"

Platinum nodded in agreement: "Yeah, thank goodness!"

Yan Furui said smugly, "Si Teng definitely didn't expect that we would go to the Huang family!"

"Who would have thought that at her advanced age, Old Mrs. Huang would still remember the method of dispelling the vine-killing technique that her mother taught her? It's fate!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jin stood frozen in place.

After talking for a while without hearing a response from Bai Jin, Yan Furui turned around and saw that Bai Jin's brows were furrowed, and he didn't know what Bai Jin was thinking.

Yan Furui waved his hand in front of Bai Jin: "Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai!"

"Hmm?" Platinum paused for a moment, then came to her senses.

Yan Furui asked curiously, "What are you daydreaming about?"

Platinum said somewhat uncertainly, "Don't you think it's strange?"

Yan Furui asked, puzzled, "What's strange about it?"

“Look!” Platinum then began to analyze:

"If Old Madam Huang knows how to counter the Vine Killing Technique, then it proves that this Vine Killing Technique has been broken before. In that case, what's the point of Si Teng using the Vine Killing Technique against Wang Qiankun?"

Yan Furui didn't quite understand Bai Jin's question, but didn't want to appear ignorant: "What's the point?"

"Yeah, what's the point?" Platinum asked, his brow furrowed as he paced back and forth in the yard, his mind full of doubt.

Suddenly, Bai Jin looked at Yan Furui and asked, "Yan Furui, repeat to me exactly what Si Teng said to you when you left."

Yan Furui thought for a moment and said, "She said there's a ten-day limit. On the tenth day, the Vine Killing will attack his mind!" "So we need to gather all the experts to save his life. If we still can't break the Vine Killing by the ninth day, then we'll go to Cangcheng Mountain to find her!"

"Go to Cangcheng Mountain to find her?" Bai Jin murmured, his brows furrowing even deeper.

"What's wrong?" Yan Furui couldn't help but ask when he saw Bai Jin's furrowed brows.

"Master Yan, look!" Bai Jin said after thinking for a moment.

"For example, if I were Si Teng, and I wanted to seek revenge on the people of the Suspended Gate, but in Cangcheng Mountain, I only encountered two insignificant pieces of trash."

This statement isn't very offensive, but it's extremely insulting.

In an instant, Yan Furui's smile froze. He stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and stared intently at Bai Jin.

"What do you mean by that? Say it again."

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!" Seeing that Yan Furui seemed about to hit him, Bai Jin quickly apologized, and then continued:

"If I were Si Teng, and I were on Cangcheng Mountain, I would encounter two not-so-powerful junior masters!"

"Then, how can I use these two junior masters to wipe out all the members of the Suspended Sect in one fell swoop?"

"My first step is to get all these people together, right?" he said, looking into the courtyard.

Upon hearing this, Yan Furui also looked towards the secret room in the courtyard: "They've all been gathered together!"

Platinum clenched his left fist and said, "—Catch them all!"

As the two had analyzed, the Vine Killer within Wang Qiankun's body was forced out in the secret room. But what happened next left the Suspense Masters, including Guild Master Cang Hong, dumbfounded.

After being forced out, the vines were not eliminated as expected. Instead, they seemed to have a mind of their own and burrowed into the bodies of the group.

"Ah~!" The group immediately screamed and fell to the ground, spitting out blood.

Only Shen Yindeng seemed unaffected. For some unknown reason, she looked left and right, pretending to have been hit by the vine-killing technique and fallen to the ground like the others.

After Wang Qiankun's vine-slaying technique was broken, how could he, as the only person still capable of movement in the secret chamber, stand idly by and watch this unfold?
So he quickly shouted for help, and Bai Jin, Yan Furui and others quickly opened the door, went in and helped the person out.

Meanwhile, in the courtyard that Lin Hao rented in Cangcheng Mountain.

"Sigh~ I've already said I need your help, why bother with all this?"

Under the corridor, Si Teng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, sighed, slowly opened his eyes, and a faint smile flickered across his lips.

"What? Did they get killed by your vine?" Lin Hao asked curiously from the side.

"Hmm!" Si Teng nodded, a half-smile on his face, and said, "What can I do if they insist on making trouble?"

Just then, Lin Hao's phone rang. It was indeed Yan Furui calling. He then pressed the answer button.

Lin Hao: "Hello, who is it?"

Yan Furui angrily questioned, "This is outrageous! How could you do such a despicable thing?"

Lin Hao: "Oh, it's Yan Furui!"

On the other side, Bai Jin tugged at Yan Furui's sleeve: "Master Yan, calm down, come on, let me talk to him!"

Then, Lin Hao heard a very polite middle-aged man's voice say:

"Excuse me, is Ms. Sito here? May I speak with her for a few minutes?"

"Okay, just a moment!" Lin Hao replied, turning on his phone's speakerphone and placing it on the railing in front of Si Teng.

"Yan Furui called. The voice on the other end was that of a middle-aged man, and it was unfamiliar!"

Shito nodded, indicating that he understood.

Platinum noticed the commotion and tentatively asked, "Excuse me, are you Ms. Sito?"

"Who is it?"

"My surname is Bai, Bai Jin!"

"Is it the Bai family from Wuyi Lane, Ninth Street?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Platinum became increasingly polite in his words:
“My ancestors lived there for three generations, but they moved away when my father was born. Miss Sito, do you know my grandfather?”

"I've heard that back then, the Xuanmen called him the Jade-Faced Scholar. It's said that he liked to wear white, long white robes and mandarin jackets, Zhongshan suits, and sometimes Western suits with top hats, and he would always be holding a fan with sandalwood ribs!"

"Two lines of small regular script were written on the front: 'Clouds, when they return, the swallows that once graced the halls of Wang and Xie fly into the homes of ordinary people.' The back of the fan was decorated with a poem and a painting, with a few strokes of ink depicting an ordinary family's home."

Platinum stared at the fan, stunned, and after a pause, said:

"I don't have the good fortune to see this. My grandfather passed away before I was born, and I don't really like wearing white. I usually prefer black."

At this moment, Ding Dacheng, who had a fiery temper, couldn't help but curse, "Bai Jin, why are you still wasting your breath talking to this shameless person?"

Si Teng, who was on the other end of the phone, was not annoyed when he heard this: "Mr. Bai, turn on the speakerphone, I want to greet the masters."

"Okay, I'll turn it on speaker!" Platinum replied, reaching out to turn on the speakerphone.

"Everyone!" Si Teng's voice came through the phone.

Ding Dacheng, a hot-tempered man, forcibly took the phone and was about to smash it when Bai Jin and Yan Furui, being relatively rational, quickly stopped him.

However, Si Teng was not in a good mood, and since he was not far away, he immediately launched a vine attack.

At this moment, Ding Dacheng suffered another attack, his skin and internal organs felt like they had been fried in hot oil, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. His phone also fell onto the table.

Seeing Ding Dacheng slumped in his chair, Bai Jin then advised, "Everyone, this is my phone. Calm down, everyone calm down!"

At this moment, Si Teng calmly said:
While this vine-killing ability does have a limited duration, the most important thing to avoid suffering in normal times is to not lose your temper.

"Try to stay calm and think about happy things. You can listen to traditional opera, read and write, close your eyes and rest to cultivate your mind!"

"If someone were to act like that Suspense Master just now, grabbing their weapon at the drop of a hat, that would be extremely bad. I would just be watching the show, while you Suspense Masters would be the ones suffering!"

Bai Jin glanced at the now much quieter Suspense Masters and said in a calm tone:
"Speaking of which, I really have to thank Miss Si Teng! The house was sealed off inside and out at the time. If the dosage of poison had been just a little bit higher, there would be a whole house full of dead people now!"

"So, Miss Sito, you could have killed him but didn't, there must be some other reason why you didn't, right?"

Si Teng smiled and said, "I asked Master Yan Xuan to pass on a message that I have a favor to ask, why don't any of you take it to heart?"

Upon hearing this, many of the Xuan Masters at Changming Academy glared fiercely at Yan Furui.

Having been here for so long, they had never heard Yan Furui mention that Si Teng had asked for a favor!
Yan Furui was startled and shrank back, explaining, "No, does she look like she's begging for help?"

Seeing the unfriendly looks from the crowd, Yan Furui quickly begged for forgiveness, "I forgot, I forgot, I forgot, I was in such a hurry I forgot!"
