Chapter 73: Chapter 9: The Disfigured Woman of the Ghost World (Part 9)

Two years ago, Gao Yang caught a cold, and the family doctor came to check and even took a blood sample.

At that time, Master Lin strangely brought over some things and did many bizarre things to him.

Afterward, Gao Yang lost all memory and became muddled and confused.

Gao Fei knew the terrifying aspects of magicians, yet when he found Master Lin, he discovered that his gaze was hollow, and he directly confessed to being bought off by the Jin Family.

Gao Fei was somewhat incredulous but still recorded Master Lin’s words overnight and sent him, bound, to the Warlock Association.

Every city has a Warlock Association to constrain the actions of magicians.

After all, the abilities of magicians are powerful, and without constraints, it could be detrimental to humanity; that wouldn’t be good either.

After Master Lin was sent away, Gao Fei was informed by a powerful magician from the association that Master Lin had been hypnotized.

Gao Fei recalled the time in the study when Li Shuning and Master Lin exchanged glances, and later when Master Lin departed.

For some reason, Gao Fei became even more excited. Li Shuning’s strength seems to be greater than he had imagined, and she seems to have noticed Master Lin’s suspicious behavior long ago; otherwise, why would she hypnotize him?

Regardless, Gao Fei felt that he needed to hold onto this big advantage. Li Shuning is so young, yet she already possesses such strength. How much more formidable will she become in the future? In this world, no matter how strong he is, Gao Fei is nothing before a magician.

Li Fu and Wang Xiaojuan went to the Gao Group, only to discover that their positions were indeed very relaxed.

The head of logistics doesn’t manage much; all the living supplies of the group have had their purchasing channels set long ago. The logistics manager only needs to decide what to buy and send the list to the purchasing department.

Li Fu is the supervisor, and Wang Xiaojuan is Li Fu’s assistant.

It’s said that the previous logistics manager was removed due to embezzlement.

Li Fu and Wang Xiaojuan cherish this opportunity, so they naturally work diligently.

With someone on hand to teach them the ropes, Li Fu and Wang Xiaojuan quickly got on the right track.

Any idle talk had already been dealt with thoroughly by Gao Fei; he wouldn’t allow any flaws in this matter.

The Gao Family and the Jin Family have gone into a full-blown war, but the Jin Family only dares to deal with the Gao Family secretly because they are not as strong in Lishui City.

Now, the Gao Family carried out an all-out economic attack on the Jin Family, and soon the Jin Family couldn’t hold up.

Jin Family members either left or scattered, completely unable to stop the Gao Family’s offensive.

After the Jin Family’s defeat, the Gao Family found a mysterious person in the Jin Family’s basement; however, the person was already unconscious, and upon being sent to the hospital, it was announced that he had become a vegetative state.

The Jin Family members who were left disclosed that the person was the magician the Jin Family had hired at a high price. When Gao Yang had his incident, it was that person who acted, while Master Lin was merely cooperating with him.

Gao Fei was very resentful of this person, but now that he became a vegetative state, they consulted someone knowledgeable. They figured that it must have been Li Shuning’s strength during Gao Yang’s rescue that counterattacked him.

The Gao Family directly discarded him and left him in the outskirts, letting nature take its course.

Li Shuning felt quite speechless. Since Li Fu went to the Gao Group, he kept thinking about sending her to school. With the family’s conditions improving, they didn’t want to delay Li Shuning anymore.

Even Wang Xiaojuan sided with Li Fu. After all, not going to school is not an option.

Li Shuning thought for a moment and then approached Gao Fei.

Of course, Gao Fei knew that for Li Shuning, studying was indeed of little use. That is the life of ordinary people, but clearly, Li Shuning is not ordinary. Her speech and demeanor aren’t those of a typical five or six-year-old; he doesn’t believe school content would have any use for her. The world has changed.

Talking with Li Shuning feels like conversing with an adult, so Gao Fei dared not play tricks in front of her.

“Master Li, what do you want me to do?”

“You tell the person who got my parents into your Gao Group to inform them that your Gao Group has a talent cultivation plan for the children of employees, but it’s closed management. I truly don’t have time to attend school; Master already has my schedule fully arranged.”

“Then find me a place near my parents’ house.”

“Alright, Master Li, rest assured; I’ll arrange everything.”

Li Shuning nodded. Since she’s connected with the Gao Family, she wouldn’t be pretentious. Gao Fei helped her, and one day she will reciprocate the favor.

A few days later, Li Fu and Wang Xiaojuan came to find Li Shuning.

Li Fu and his wife were quite reasonable with children and would discuss matters with Li Shuning.

When Li Fu mentioned the Gao Group’s cultivation plan, he was still prepared for Li Shuning’s refusal.

After all, Li Shuning had always resisted going to school.

Unexpectedly, this time Li Shuning agreed.

Li Fu was very happy and took Li Shuning to the Gao Group the next day.

The person in charge at the Gao Group took Li Shuning away, informing Li Fu that the child would enter a closed school, only returning home for summer and winter vacation.

At heart, Li Fu and Wang Xiaojuan were reluctant, but thinking of the child’s future, they tearfully bid farewell to Li Shuning.

In reality, Li Shuning moved to a house near her own home.

Gao Fei arranged for someone to specifically help manage Li Shuning’s daily life.

Li Shuning did not refuse, spending her days cultivating and cultivating more.

Li Shuning had spent time in the Cultivation World and had even become a Mahayana Cultivator; she was well-versed in cultivation. With her innate condition and spiritual power, her cultivation was indeed very smooth.

Thus, eight years passed, with Li Shuning returning home to reunite with her parents during each summer and winter vacation, spending the rest of her time cultivating.

At this time, Li Shuning’s cultivation had reached Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.

This world lacks Foundation Establishment Pills; her success was rather coincidental.

After succeeding in Foundation Establishment, Li Shuning’s confidence grew stronger, but she knew that breaking through to become a Golden Core Cultivator was unlikely.

This world is indeed suitable for cultivation, but resources are lacking; one can only rely on external spiritual energy for cultivation. If not for Li Shuning being somewhat unique, Foundation Establishment might be an issue for people in this world.

When Zhou Jinyun went to find Li Shuning again, she discovered that Li Shuning and the entire village were gone. Upon inquiry, it seemed the village was attacked by Spirit Monsters, and everyone was relocated.

She let out a sigh of relief; with Master not encountering Li Shuning on the original route, she wouldn’t become her junior sister. What good would Li Shuning’s talent do when she’s just an ordinary person?

Several previous attempts at targeting Li Shuning failed, even causing injuries to herself, leaving Zhou Jinyun a bit unsettled.

Now that Li Shuning wasn’t in the village, even if she encountered other opportunities, at least she wouldn’t be an obstacle for her.

Considering this, Zhou Jinyun felt the air become noticeably fresher.
