Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1482: Chapter 70: Forcibly Stuffing! Rainbow Wealth-Gathering Tree_3

However, he understood that it was not enough to feed Wang Fugui alone; he also had to feed the precious Mengyu.

“No, taking this pill will make one forget everything.” Jiang Qinglian, who had been silent, spoke, “If it was just about forgetting some minor things, I do have a minor soul-confusing and soul-washing technique that would not work on experts, but it should be no problem with someone at the Vital Energy Refining Realm level, especially when it comes to memories that have not been established for long.”

Jiang Qinglian was born in the Magic Path, and had a talent for disguising and sneaking amongst other skills. It wasn’t surprising that she was skilled in hypnotic soul-confusing techniques.

“Then I will have to trouble Elder Jiang to make a move,” Wang Fugui politely requested.

“That’s not possible, even though this soul-confusing technique isn’t difficult, you are of noble identity, my lord—what if something happened to you?” Jiang Qinglian vetoed, “Why don’t we try it on a servant in the Wang Fu instead?”

“Absolutely not, this is my own affair, how can I shift the risk onto the innocent to avoid it for myself?” Wang Fugui said, shaking his head, “Besides, only I can control this puppet spider, if others get involved, it might disrupt the plan. Elder Jiang, please proceed, I also wish to experience what it is like to have my soul washed, so I can guard against it later.”

“In that case, my lord, please be careful.” Eventually, Jiang Qinglian agreed, and as she spoke, her fair jade hand flickered in front of Wang Fugui, engulfing him in her vast God Sense.

At first, she seemed relaxed and in full control, but gradually, sweat began to slip from her forehead, and she seemed to struggle greatly. Only after a long while did she take two steps back, wiped off her sweat, appearing very unsettled as she said, “My lord, your Divine Soul is so much stronger than ordinary people, not even cultivators who have opened their Spiritual Platforms compare to you, it was almost a disaster.”

“Hm?” Wang Fugui frowned, “What just happened? Why am I suddenly here?”

Without waiting for a response, Jiang Qinglian was the first to push open the door of a small room, her face full of shock as she said, “The puppet spider is indeed gone.”

“How is that possible!?” King of the North, Jade Spirit True Monarch, and others were also shocked beyond measure, to think that the puppet spider was stolen right under their noses with their level of perception.

“Puppet spider? What puppet spider?” Wang Fugui frowned, looking confused, and turned to Yun Mengyu, “Weren’t we just eating a moment ago, Mengyu?”

“Fugui, this is what happened.” Yun Mengyu hurriedly told Wang Fugui the whole story from beginning to end.

With Wang Fugui’s willpower and thinking, it took him more than a dozen breaths to untangle the logic, and he remarked, “Elder Jiang’s soul-confusing technique is really powerful, this is the first time I’ve had such an experience.”

“Your Divine Soul is already very strong,” Jiang Qinglian remarked, “Once you ascend to the Spirit Platform Realm, there’s no way I could confuse your soul, so rest assured.”

After calming down, Wang Fugui began to ponder, “I can sense my puppet spider within dozens of miles, but now I can’t feel it at all. Could it be that it went beyond that distance in an instant?”

“Senior King of the North, could you please fly me around inside the Wang Fu? As long as we enter a range of about thirty miles, I will be able to sense my puppet spider, and then the thief can no longer hide.”

Though the King of the North found Wang Fugui irritating in many ways, finding the insider thief was still an important matter. Saying this, he grabbed Wang Fugui and began to travel around the Wang Fu.

Even taking care to fly slowly for Wang Fugui’s sake, in a short period of time they completed a circuit of the Wang Fu in a ‘sketching out the edges’ manner.

After landing back at the original spot, Wang Fugui frowned, “I didn’t sense the puppet spider at all.”

“Fugui, could it have left the Wang Fu?” Yun Mengyu asked nervously.

“No, judging from the distribution of all the stolen items, the thief is undoubtedly still inside the mansion,” Wang Fugui said with firmness, then a light bulb went off, “Right, the connection I have with the puppet spider is a kind of fluctuation, if blocked by a Formation, I won’t be able to sense it. Is there a space in the Wang Fu isolated by Formations?”

“Of course, there are,” Yun Mengyu replied quickly, “such as several forbidden areas, and each of the heritage sites, and… the Underground Treasury! Especially our family’s Underground Treasury is extremely solid, the Defensive Array around it is layer upon layer, my old ancestor was worried it would attract thieves and added…”

“Enough, Mengyu,” the King of the North scolded with a dark face, “Isn’t it that every family’s treasury is guarded and protected layer by layer?”

“Senior, maybe the thief is hiding in the forbidden areas or somewhere similar. Please take me for another round to sense,” Wang Fugui requested with a bow, “Through big data comparison and behavioral analysis, I am certain the thief has never left the Wang Fu.”

“Fine!” King of the North gritted his teeth, “For the sake of catching the thief, I will give it my all. However, if after checking the forbidden places and the treasury we still can’t find the thief, you will have to admit defeat and return the Princess’ Order.”

“Naturally,” Wang Fugui stated confidently.

Afterward, the King of the North took Wang Fugui and flew over various forbidden places separately, as well as each heritage site. The Wang Fu truly had a royal standard, with seven or eight forbidden places and over a dozen heritage sites.

Eventually, the King of the North took Wang Fugui into the treasury.

After passing through layers of protection and Formations, the two entered the interior of the treasury, and suddenly, Wang Fugui’s expression brightened as he said, “I have a signal, it’s here, about five or six miles from this spot.”
