Chapter 11 So that's how it is... (2/2)

After doing all this, Xiaobai felt a chill down its spine, as if its owner had rejected it.

But it was clearly following the instruction to "take everything away" strictly.

The baby feels wronged, but the baby doesn't say anything.

Ruan Tang was too lazy to pay attention to her pet's little mood, but she had already silently made a note of it in her mind: a moral education class must be arranged immediately.

She walked to the bedside and looked down at the couple.

Although her spiritual strength was comparable to that of a Golden Core cultivator, without the support of spiritual power, she ultimately could not use it too recklessly.

Fortunately, probing the memories of two mortals was quite easy.

The divine sense, like an invisible ice needle, pierced Mayor Bai's brow with perfect precision and care.

Ruan Tang quickly searched through Mayor Bai's memories with her powerful divine sense and soon found what she wanted.

Mayor Bai didn't know much about the Ruan family, only that they were a wealthy, century-old silk-making family.

As for the "token" he was looking for, he didn't know what it looked like. He only learned about it from his lover, Jia Ximei, who was by his side in bed. But she didn't say what the "token" looked like, only that it could unlock the treasure of the Ruan family.

He knew very little about the size of the Ruan family, and was even more unaware that the Ruan family had a daughter who was kept very secret.

very good.

Ruan Tang twitched her fingertips slightly and casually swept her divine sense across the surface.

He quickly blurred the parts of his memory about the Ruan family's interpersonal relationships, and then casually inserted the information that "the Ruan family members are either dead or have fled, and the place is now deserted."

After doing all this, she turned her consciousness to the woman next to her named Jia Ximei.

Ruan Tang successfully entered the other party's memory with her divine sense, and soon saw such a scene deep in Jia Ximei's memory.

In the dark room, Jia Ximei was kneeling humbly before a figure shrouded in shadow.

The shadow was speaking.

A language Ruan Tang had never heard before, with strange syllables, a language the original owner had never heard before.

But a few words were clearly uttered, albeit intermittently.

—The Ruan family.

—Start.

—A token of love.

Ruan Tang's heart sank in that instant.

It turns out that Mayor Bai was just a pawn that had been pushed into the open.

The one who truly coveted the Ruan family's "key" was someone else!

An unknown entity hidden in the deeper shadows.

Ruan Tang did not hastily erase this memory.

If it's erased, and the person behind it notices, it will only alert them.

Ruan Tang's eyes darted around, and a cold smile curved her lips.

Instead of deleting it, she turned the tables and injected the information into Jia Ximei's memory that "the Ruan family has fallen into ruin, the house is empty, and the treasures have disappeared."

At the same time, Ruan Tang carefully deleted all the information Jia Ximei had found about her mother, aunt, and her "niece," and added the information about the original owner's older brother and his family fleeing to the United States.

After doing all this, she slowly withdrew her divine sense.

Ruan Tang felt a deep sense of admiration for her adopted mother, whom she had never met.

She's an amazing woman.

According to the original owner's memories, her mother never revealed to the outside world that Ruan Tang was Ruan Shichang's biological daughter.

To all outsiders, Ruan Tang was just a child raised by her great-aunt from a young age, and had nothing to do with the Ruan family.

Otherwise, I would probably be in danger now. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
