Yuanshin: The Eye of God Lights Up Again

"Master Patriarch?"

Thomas came back to his senses, but saw a tall blue-haired man appearing in front of him, and quickly saluted the man.

"So Thomas was there too."

Kamisato Ayato's tone was flat, but Thomas could clearly hear that Ayato's tone was not good.

This is a hint to Thomas, as a housekeeping officer, Thomas knows what his master means.

"Miss Kamisato, Master, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

The red figure slowly exited the room, leaving only the two brothers and sisters of the Kamisato family in the huge study.

"Brother."

Linghua stopped what she was doing and bowed slightly to her brother. The smile on her face was calm but still the same.

Lingren stood where he was, just looked at Linghua quietly, and did not respond.

As the older brother, Ayato knew exactly what his younger sister was thinking right now.

Perhaps it was also the case, and Ayato hesitated.

He hesitated whether he should tell the news that Mu Xian had died on the day the eye hunting order was lifted.

"Brother?"

Ayaka's call refocused Ayato's slack pupils.

"Ling Hua, I'm here this time... to tell you about Mu Xian."

Lingren, who came back to his senses, did not lose his expression, but saw his sister bowed her head, and the pen in her hand moved again.

It was like he didn't care what he said.

A trace of guilt flashed through his heart again, and Ayato continued: "Not long ago, I arranged a task for him. It may take a long time for him to come back."

Linghua was still writing on the paper, quietly.

"When he comes back this time, I won't stop you again."

Lingren said in his mouth, and then whispered: "I'm sorry, no matter what you do, I will support you, brother."

Seeing that there was no pause in front of Ling Hua, Ling Ren silently exited the room.

Thomas stood outside the door, looking at Ayato with some concern.

"Don't worry, Linghua is fine."

Yato guessed what Thomas meant, and said, "Go to the room and take care of the lady."

"Yes."

After the words fell, Thomas pushed the door open and entered.

What I saw was Linghua putting down the brush, sitting behind the desk, looking straight ahead.

But Thomas felt that Ayaka was not looking ahead.

"Miss." Thomas said, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Thomas..."

Ayaka came back to her senses and looked at Toma in a daze: "It must have been a long time since you came to Kamisato's house. It's been so long that I can't even remember..."

Thomas wanted to speak, but found that the eldest lady who was looking at him laughed.

This time, Thomas could feel the bitterness in his smile.

"Brother, he won't make mistakes like mine."

"However, brother seems to have forgotten it today. The only one who can tell him now is the Lord Palace Secretary."

As Linghua said, she picked out the paper on the table.

The paper was stained with ink, half of the paper was beautifully written, while the other half was just a few lines flying across.

"Thoma?"

"exist."

"Take this paper and burn it."

...

The yellow paper was burning in the brazier, but Mu Xian was fascinated by it.

Zhongli stood aside with his hands behind his back, looking at the brazier as well.

Without the girl between the two men, one big and one small, the atmosphere was much more depressing.

Such a depression drove the relatives kneeling and sitting beside the coffin, and even the crying was much louder than the previous funeral.

Mu Xian, who had always thought of being quiet, couldn't bear such crying, but even if he was fulfilling the work in the contract, he could only endure it by staring at the brazier.

Mu Xian was half envious and half pitiful for the man lying in the coffin.

I envy him that he will not be pulled out of the coffin because of the contract, and I feel sorry that he will be tortured by this kind of crying when he dies.

Inexplicably, Mu Xian suddenly missed that hall master.

Although it is a bit noisy to keep pestering me, I will not be tortured by the crying.

In the two days since he returned to Liyue from the Layer Rock Abyss, Hutao seemed to have been seriously injured.

Although he was able to walk, he was not as lively as before. He locked himself in the room and didn't even come out for the funeral for the dead in the layered rock abyss.

Mu Xian, who was still relatively new to this industry, of course couldn't hold the funeral alone, so he simply threatened Zhong Li with this guy's collection, half threatening and half pleading.

However, to support the scene, Mu Xian actually gave everything to Zhong Li.

Mu Xian knew that for this decathlon guest, the essential work of the Rebirth Hall was no longer a problem.

But Mu Xian forgot that no matter what, once this guy does it, he likes to do it to perfection.

For example, funerals are extremely complicated these days.

Every time Mu Xian asks Zhong Li, he can answer with reason and evidence, and occasionally he can draw out allusions that Mu Xian has never heard of as an example.

Mu Xian was a little skeptical, maybe it was an allusion he hadn't heard before, and he said it, after all, Mu Xian didn't know whether what he said was right or wrong.

Thinking of this, Mu Xian suddenly heard Zhong Li behind him calling him.

"Are you free?" Zhong Li didn't look sideways, as if he hadn't spoken.

But Mu Xian heard it clearly.

"No time." Mu Xian's voice was even lower, and he didn't intend to let Zhong Li hear it.

"In that case, go to Yunhan Club later. Someone wants to see you."

Maybe Zhongli really couldn't hear it, so he added on his own: "Don't let the hall master find out about this."

Chapter 26 Keep Some Distance

"Yunjin?"

Hearing this name, Mu Xian shook his head: "I have a little impression, maybe I heard this name somewhere."

"You know her." Zhong Li said, "In five years, not only you have changed, but others have also changed a lot."

"So what?" Looking at the streets with people coming and going, Mu Xian said in a cold tone: "They have nothing to do with me."

After speaking, Mu Xian felt Zhong Li stop.

Looking up with some doubts, Zhong Li was standing there staring at a certain direction.

Following his line of sight, he saw people coming and going, but Mu Xian saw a sneaky-looking person at a glance.

Although the man deliberately relaxed his body, the subconscious movements he had developed made Mu Xian aware of this guy's occupation.

Thief.

Perhaps on purpose, the man accidentally bumped into a passerby.

After apologizing to each other, the man took out an extra wallet with the logo of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce printed on the wallet.

After watching the man for a while, Mu Xian looked away and continued to walk in the direction of Yunhan Club.

"You were not like this before."

Zhong Li followed behind and asked, "Aren't you going to help?"

"Then why don't you help?" Mu Xian asked back: "Now you are more suitable than me to deal with these thieves."

"I can't interfere in these matters." Zhongli said somewhat calmly: "This... is another contract."

"Don't ask me to go if you don't want to go." Mu Xian said, "I'm fed up with helping to get scolded."

"Maybe it's different this time."

Zhongli said leisurely: "You might as well try again."

"Haven't I tried enough?"

Mu Xian stopped and looked at Zhongli with the same indifference as before: "How disgusting am I, that I will be dragged back to repeat the previous things after I die?"

"That's not the case..." Zhong Li looked away, but didn't say anything else.

The two were silent, but there was a commotion on the side of the road soon.

Mu Xian didn't care about the source of the commotion, but a young man caught the thief passing in front of him.

The young man saw Mu Xian's face from the corner of his eye, stopped in his footsteps, and looked at Mu Xian.

But Mu Xian moved faster, before the young man could see himself clearly, he took a step with his right foot, distanced himself from the young man, and walked past him.

"Mr. Zhongli."

"Hello, Master Xingqiu."

The voices of two people saying hello came from behind, but Mu Xian quickened his pace and opened the distance between them.

Not long after, Zhongli bid farewell to Xingqiu, and caught up with Mu Xian before arriving at the gate of Yunhan Society.

Perhaps because he knew about Mu Xian and the cheap junior brother, Zhongli didn't say anything when he caught up with Mu Xian.
