Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 1897 (One Thousand Eight Hundred and Ninety Seven) Doubt

Tie Hongyan asked, "I'm a little curious, why didn't the Taoist priest remind Dad about this? Given Dad's personality, he probably didn't want the gray light on his forehead to be seen by others after he asked the Taoist priest to perform a ritual. Could it be that the Taoist priest knew that most people couldn't see it, so he didn't care?"

Tie Jinjue hummed and said, "It's possible."

"Or..." Tie Hongyan thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the Taoist priest was careless, or there are other reasons why it is inconvenient to remind him."

Tie Jinjue asked, "What are you worried about?"

"I wasn't worried about anything at first, but now I'm a little worried that Dad would know something." Tie Hongyan said.

"Why?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"My uncle just told me that Ni Yuan said that the reason why I can see some lights that other people can't see at this time is because the light already exists, and it is related to the fact that I am still within seven days after the Soul Purifying Qi was sucked away. Dad naturally knows that I have been away from the Soul Purifying Qi for no more than seven days. If Dad knew that there was a gray light on his forehead, and there was a Taoist priest next to him, I don't think it would be difficult for him to know who could see the gray light on his forehead. I'm still worried that he would think that I might have seen the gray light on his forehead." Tie Hongyan said.

Tie Jinjue stopped writing and thought for a while, then continued writing. While writing, he said to Tie Hongyan, "Are you worried that your father will miss you too much?"

Tie Hongyan said: "Well, if my father thinks that I can see the gray light on his forehead, but I pretend that I didn't see it when I saw it, he might doubt me. I don't want to arouse my father's suspicion. Now if my father has a little suspicion of me even in a seemingly unimportant aspect, I will feel unsafe."

"But what can you do?" Tie Jinjue said.

"I was also thinking about what I could and should do." Tie Hongyan said, "If I had directly shown that I noticed the gray light on my father's forehead, I think my father would have felt very embarrassed. After all, he was in front of my uncle and Wu Xunsheng."

“Maybe, if you had shown it at that time, the clan leader would have been furious.” Tie Jinjue said.

"Uncle, do you think so too?" Tie Hongyan said.

"I'm just saying it casually." Tie Jinjue said, "I thought about it based on the clan leader's personality."

Tie Hongyan said, "I don't know why there is a gray light on Dad's forehead. If it is caused by the alchemist's magic, then why did Dad ask the alchemist to do it? Dad said yesterday that he plans to ask the alchemist who performed the magic for Yuanshuang Mingxin Stone to do something for him. I don't know what he wants the alchemist to do. Since my father's forehead can emit gray light, I think it may be related to my father's health. The alchemist probably didn't come to perform a magic for Dad's things."

Tie Jinjue said, “The clan leader obviously didn’t want you to know that he was in Ao Qian Palace before he came to see you yesterday.”

Tie Hongyan said, "Yes, uncle, I thought of this too, and I really think it's a little strange. Yesterday I asked Dad if he came here so quickly because someone notified him that I was back, and Dad said no. I asked Dad if he was in Ao Qian Palace, and Dad told me to rest quickly and stop asking so many useless questions, and then he left. I think Dad's reaction obviously means he doesn't want me to know where he was before, nor does he want me to know what he was doing before."
