She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement Chapter 430 - No Title

Chapter 430: No t.i.tle

At night, Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao, and Lin Jiansheng gathered in Sheng Lingfeng’s study.

The Chinese-style study was divided into three areas: the library, the office, and the meditation room. At that moment, Sheng Lingfeng was on the phone in his office. Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao, and Lin Jiansheng were sitting in the meditation room outside the study and drinking tea.

Kong Qing was climbing a peach tree in the courtyard downstairs to pick peaches. Yufu City was a good place for people to live. The fruits planted were especially sweet and delicious.

Kong Qing picked a big and red peach and shouted upstairs, “Dad, open the window!”

Lin Jiansheng put down his teacup and didn’t get up. Relying on his tall height and long arms, he stretched out an arm and pushed open the window. Just as the window was pushed open, a peach flew in from the window frame.

Lin Jiansheng grabbed the peach and heard Kong Qing say, “It’s all mature. Peel it and eat it directly!”

Lin Jiansheng smiled and said, “Be careful not to fall.”

“No!” Kong Qing was like a monkey as he picked peaches. He picked one and took a bite before picking another.

Seeing that he was having fun, the servants let him be. This was Saint Ling Xiao’s precious son. Not to mention eating a few peaches, even if he wanted to eat the peaches at the Immortal Peach Banquet, they had to think of a way to get him a few.

Lin Jiansheng peeled the peach and had just taken a bite of the soft peach meat when he suddenly felt a gaze on him. Lin Jiansheng looked up at the owner of the gaze and saw Sheng Xiao looking at his peach with an unreadable expression.

Lin Jiansheng subconsciously s.h.i.+elded the peach and said in amus.e.m.e.nt, “What are you doing? Do you have to be so reluctant to let people eat a peach from the Sheng family?”

Sheng Xiao quickly said, “Mentor, you’ve misunderstood. It’s not that I can’t bear to part with this peach. I just think that Kong Qing treats you very well. Even one’s own son isn’t so considerate.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiansheng immediately felt smug. “Of course.”

Sheng Xiao suddenly asked, “How does it feel to take care of a child?”

Lin Jiansheng could guess what Sheng Xiao was thinking. He immediately said seriously, “Ah Huang is still young. You are still children. If you want a child, you have to wait a few years.”

Sheng Xiao felt awkward.

It wasn’t that he wanted to have a child with Yu Huang. It was just that when he saw how filial and considerate Kong Qing was to Lin Jiansheng, he felt a little conflicted and even looked forward to it. He couldn’t help but wonder if his and Yu Huang’s child would be as considerate and sensible as Kong Qing in the future.

He hoped their child could be as considerate.

However, when he thought of his and Yu Huang’s independent and uncompromising personalities, he immediately felt that his wish would fail. Their child would most likely be a mature and serious child at such a young age.

Yu Huang was flipping through a stack of name lists in her hand. They were sent by Sheng Zhou earlier. On them were the data of the traitors discovered in the various families of the Holy Spirit Continent. The names of more than two thousand cultivators filled with more than ten sheets of A4 paper.

After Yu Huang finished reading the list, she frowned slightly and lowered her head to look at it again.

Sheng Xiao picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Yu Huang. “Have a cup of tea and rest.”

Yu Huang didn’t even raise her head. She said, “Feed me.”

Sheng Xiao was very familiar with this. He brought the teacup to Yu Huang’s mouth.

Yu Huang opened her rosy lips and took a sip of the azure tea.

When Lin Jiansheng saw the tacit understanding that only an old couple could have, he felt a little jealous.

His little disciple and son-in-law were so loving that they could give birth to a little disciple for him at any time, but he was still a bachelor.

The old bachelor felt a little melancholic.

Sheng Xiao put down the teacup when he saw that Yu Huang stopped drinking. He asked, “I see that you’ve been looking at the list. What’s wrong? Is there a problem with the list?”

Yu Huang tapped her finger on the statistics book. She suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Jiansheng. She couldn’t help but frown and say, “I just looked at the number of traitors registered by the various large families and found that be it the Liuli Clan, the Xuanyuan Clan, or the Lion Clan, the number of traitors in these families is more than that of the Sheng Clan.”

Lin Jiansheng said, “Continue.”

“But the strange thing is.” Yu Huang flipped to the second page of the list and pointed at the list of traitors of the Caro Clan. She said in confusion, “But there are only five traitors in the Caro Clan, and they were all Supreme Masters.”

Lin Jiansheng pulled the name list over and took a look. He saw that there were indeed only five traitors in the Caro Clan. This was indeed a little strange.

After some thought, Lin Jiansheng said, “There have been fewer and fewer Beast Tamers who have successfully awakened in the Caro Clan over the years. Under the leaders.h.i.+p of the money-grubber Caro Xiangfu, the Caro Clan has developed the habit of being lazy in cultivation and only obsessed with earning money. Perhaps it’s because of this that there are fewer traitors in their clan.”

When it came to earning money, everyone would earn it together. The more they earned, the happier they would be. Perhaps it was because everyone had money in their pockets, so there were fewer conflicts and fewer traitors.

Sheng Xiao didn’t agree with Lin Jiansheng’s opinion. He sneered. “If the Caro Clan was really that much of a slacker, Caro Zhengyang wouldn’t have suddenly appeared.”

Just like Sheng Xiao, Yu Huang had always been suspicious of the Caro Clan. “What do you think Caro Zhengyang was busy with on the day of the Battle of the Eight Towers Mountain? He wasn’t attracted by such a huge commotion. Is he deaf?”

Caro Zhengyang loved to be high-profile and show off. On the day of the homecoming banquet, even Dino had rushed over from Xixia Sea, but he, Caro Zhengyang, had actually held back from appearing. Could it be that he had suddenly changed his mind and planned to keep a low profile?

Lin Jiansheng a.n.a.lyzed, “Could it be that Caro Zhengyang is hoping that we will fight Su Xuanye to the death and he will reap the benefits?”

“That’s possible. In short, I think the Caro Clan’s name list is very suspicious.” Yu Huang didn’t believe that the Caro Clan only had five traitors. No matter how rich the Caro Clan was, it was impossible for everyone to be rich and have no other desires.

At that moment, Sheng Lingfeng opened the office door and walked out. The moment he came out, he shared a shocking piece of news—

“Caro Zhengyang is possessed.”

“Possessed?”

Everyone looked at each other. They couldn’t figure out how someone as impressive as Caro Zhengyang could be possessed. Which deity actually dared to cast a demonic technique on Caro Zhengyang?

Sheng Lingfeng walked to the top seat and sat down.

Sheng Xiao saw that his lips were dry, so he handed a cup of tea to Sheng Lingfeng. “Father, have a cup of tea to soothe your throat first.” Sheng Lingfeng had been talking on the phone the whole time and his mouth was dry.

Sheng Lingfeng took a sip of tea to moisten his dry throat before saying, “It’s true. You know the Purifying Spirit Master who went to the Caro Clan to search the souls of their disciples. He’s Dean Edward of the Divine Realm Academy’s Purifying Spirit Department.”

Upon hearing Dean Edward’s name, Lin Jiansheng immediately said, “Dean Edward was my former teacher. Although he is only a Level 8 Purifying Spirit Master now, his research on various spells can be said to be the best in the world.”

“He’s a walking spell book.”

Yu Huang had a deep impression of Edward. She said, “This old dean seems to be a professor of the spell cla.s.s.” Yu Huang had never attended Edward’s spell cla.s.s, but she knew that he was a senior spell professor who specialized in teaching some forbidden techniques.

Sheng Xiao nodded. “That’s right. He taught me spells for two years. He usually taught the forbidden techniques that other professors didn’t dare to.”

Sheng Lingfeng smiled and said, “Professor Edward was also my teacher.”

Realizing that they were both students of Professor Edward, this gave the father and son a strange connection. The two of them looked at each other and couldn’t help but smile.

After laughing, Sheng Lingfeng’s smile quickly disappeared. He changed the topic back to the main topic and continued, “Dean Edward and I have always been in contact. We are friends and have a good relations.h.i.+p. Just now, Professor Edward called me and mentioned the traitors of the Caro Clan.”

Sheng Lingfeng pointed at the statistical list in front of Yu Huang and the others. He said, “The Caro Clan has indeed only found five traitors with the soul mark of the Blood Peac.o.c.k.”

Since this was done by Edward, Yu Huang naturally wouldn’t doubt its authenticity. “Then what’s up with Caro Zhengyang being possessed?”

Sheng Lingfeng’s expression instantly became strange. He said, “From Dean Edward’s story, I finally know why Prime Emperor Zhengyang couldn’t attend the Yin Clan’s homecoming banquet a few days ago. It’s because he has a shameful illness.”

Yu Huang asked, “What illness?”

Sheng Lingfeng opened his mouth to say something, but he felt that this was too ridiculous, so he couldn’t speak. “I’ve lived for more than a hundred years and have never heard of such an illness.”

Seeing that Sheng Lingfeng was acting mysterious, Lin Jiansheng hurriedly urged, “What illness is it? If you don’t say anything, I’ll die of anxiety!” Lin Jiansheng couldn’t stand it when he was deliberately kept in suspense.

After Lin Jiansheng asked this, he lowered his head and drank his tea.

Sheng Lingfeng touched the sleeping snake on his wrist and said with a strange expression, “Prime Emperor Zhengyang seems to be pregnant.”

—Pfft!

Lin Jiansheng spat all the tea in his mouth onto Sheng Lingfeng’s face.

Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao were shocked. They quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped Sheng Lingfeng’s face.

Sheng Lingfeng sat quietly on the armchair. After his son and daughter-in-law wiped the water off his face, he wiped his face helplessly. Smelling the garlic scent, Sheng Lingfeng frowned and asked Lin Jiansheng, “Saint Ling Xiao, did you eat garlic for lunch?”

Lin Jiansheng explained guiltily, “Garlic pork ribs. The dishes cooked by your family’s chef are especially delicious.” He couldn’t help but eat a few more pieces. He couldn’t get rid of the garlic smell no matter how hard he tried.

Sheng Lingfeng frowned and didn’t argue with Lin Jiansheng.
