Xi Yao turned her gaze to Lin Zhong again.

"How can you be so sure Xie Yunqi isn't Lin Wantang's son? Then who is his father?"

In fact, she already had a guess in her heart.

"Xie Yunqi was born to Shen Miaoyin. She and Lin Wantang gave birth on the same day, and Xie Changkong took her to Lin Wantang."

Lin Zhong's words confirmed Xi Yao's suspicions.

After all, Xie Yunqi and Xie Yungui look exactly alike.

On the surface, no one would doubt that the two are not twins.

However, since Lin Wantang and Shen Miaoyin were identical twins, it's not surprising that their children look alike.

The strange thing is why Xie Changkong put Xie Yunqi under Lin Wantang's name, which became a handle for Lin Zhong to use against him.

How did Xie Changkong conceal his pregnancy and childbirth?

"Tell me everything you know!"

"Twenty-three years ago, when I had just taken over the Divine Calculation Pavilion and the Assassin Pavilion from the previous Pavilion Master, I discovered by chance that Xie Changkong was keeping someone on the side..."

That person looked exactly like Lin Wantang.

At first, Lin Zhong thought it was Lin Wantang.

He later realized something was wrong.

Although Lin Wantang had lost all her martial arts skills, she shouldn't have become so weak.

Lin Zhong began to use that vast information gathering network to thoroughly investigate Xie Changkong and this woman.

The Divine Calculation Pavilion certainly lives up to its reputation; there's nothing it can't find.

Soon, Lin Zhong learned that the woman's name was Shen Miaoyin, and she was Lin Wantang's twin sister who had gone missing when she was young.

Xie Changkong has been secretly keeping Shen Miaoyin in this house for several years.

Furthermore, Shen Miaoyin and Lin Wantang were both pregnant at the same time.

Since losing all her martial arts skills, Lin Wantang has remained at Feixue Manor and has not left.

She trusted Xie Changkong completely and cared about almost nothing.

Taking advantage of this, Xie Changkong bribed all the doctors who could enter Feixue Manor to tell Lin Wantang that she was pregnant with twins.

When Lin Wan-tang was pregnant, her belly was very large, and it did look like she was carrying twins.

Later, when Shen Miaoyin was about to give birth, Xie Changkong secretly brought her to Feixue Manor.

When Lin Wantang was giving birth, Xie Changkong had the midwife and doctor tamper with the process, causing Lin Wantang to lose her senses and later fall into a coma.

At the same time, they induced labor in Shen Miaoyin's place so that both children could be born at the same time.

And so, when Lin Wantang woke up, she learned that she had given birth to twin sons.

She had no doubts.

After that, Shen Miaoyin was sent away again, until three years later, when Xie Changkong openly brought her back to Feixue Manor.

Xi Yao narrowed her eyes after hearing this. "Why did Xie Changkong go to so much trouble?"

"To wait for the person behind Lin Wantang."

Lin Zhong answered blankly.

"Who's behind her?"

"I haven't been able to find out exactly who it is, but I know that Lin Wantang has a big secret. Xie Changkong has been able to get to where he is today entirely because of Lin Wantang."

Xi Yao guessed that Lin Wantang's secret was that he had time traveled and had a system.

Lin Zhong is quite capable; he actually found something amiss.

"What else do you know?"

"I also know..."

Lin Zhong's face was contorted, clearly indicating that he was struggling violently.

But Xi Yao didn't give him a chance and deepened the hypnosis again.

Lin Zhong quieted down and started talking blankly again.

"I also know that Xie Changkong's martial arts manual was given to him by Lin Wantang. The rapid rise of Feixue Manor was also due to the large amount of money Lin Wantang provided."

But as the orphan of the Lin family, I haven't been able to find out the source of these things belonging to Lin Wantang.

Lin Zhong took a breath and continued, "But I know that there is a mysterious person behind Lin Wantang, and Xie Changkong did all this to keep Lin Wantang calm and force out the person behind her."

Unfortunately, there has been no result all these years.

"I once heard Xie Changkong say that if Lin Wantang had no major attachments to this world, she would leave."

But he didn't understand what that departure meant.

Leaving Flying Snow Manor?

Or should I leave this world?

Or, death.

"I also found out that Xie Changkong's martial arts have a second part, which is said to be able to extend lifespan, making it no problem to live to two hundred years old."

He has devoted himself to this for years, all for the sake of the second half of the manual.

"Xie Changkong gives me money on time not only to keep the secret, but also because he needs the Divine Calculation Pavilion to help him investigate things."

We must investigate Lin Wantang's true background and find out who's behind her.

Xi Yao was truly amazed after hearing this.

The so-called mysterious person behind it should be the system.

How love-struck was Lin Wantang back then that she dared to tell Xie Changkong about this?

No wonder, when she was making ice, Lin Wantang told her not to reveal her identity as a transmigrator, saying that this world was terrifying.

She probably saw through Xie Changkong and discovered something.

Xi Yao looked at Lin Zhong on the ground and couldn't help but sneer.

This guy is insatiable. Xie Changkong has never killed him, except because he wants the Divine Calculation Pavilion's influence to help him investigate information.

More importantly, killing Lin Zhong wouldn't be easy.

Besides his own considerable martial arts skills, he also had the Assassin's Guild, with countless experts around him.

Too many ants can kill an elephant.

She wondered how Xie Changkong could be so patient; it turned out he had no choice but to endure it.

However, if things continue like this, Lin Zhong will die sooner or later.

Xie Changkong estimated that he had been planning this for a long time and would kill him as soon as he got the chance.

"996, why do you think Xie Changkong insisted on secretly placing Lin Miaoyin's child under Lin Wantang's name?"

Xi Yao felt that some of the things Lin Zhong said were unreasonable.

Xie Changkong was able to bring Shen Miaoyin back to Feixue Manor openly and legitimately, so why would he be afraid that her having a child would be exposed?

[I don't know either, host.]

996 frowned and thought, but couldn't come up with a solution.

There must be some crucial information missing, and Lin Wantang definitely knows that information.

At this point, 996's eyes lit up.

[Host, do you think Lin Wantang would want to kill Xie Changkong if she found out he had been scheming to deceive her all these years?]

In that case, perhaps she wouldn't keep certain secrets and might be willing to tell her host all the information.

Xi Yao understood the meaning of 996.

She was looking for a breakthrough, and here it is!

"Lin Zhong, you say Xie Yunqi is Shen Miaoyin's son, do you have any evidence?"

To convince Lin Wantang, concrete evidence is needed.

Otherwise, if you suddenly tell her that the son she has raised for over twenty years was born to someone else, not even a ghost would believe it.

"have."

Lin Zhong's voice was already somewhat weak.

I've been hypnotized for too long, and my brain is about to break down.

"Just say so."

"The doctor and midwife who examined Lin Wantang were killed by Xie Changkong, but I saved that doctor's daughter and have been raising her ever since."

I've raised it for so many years, just so that one day I could use it.

Xi Yao's eyes lit up upon hearing this. "Where is he?"

"It's located in the old alley in the west of the city, within the territory of Feixue Mountain Villa."

This is a perfect example of the saying "the darkest place is under the lamp."
