CHAPTER 430: CHAPTER 429: ASK ME—IT’S JUST A MENTAL BREAKDOWN! (SECOND UPDATE)

The person was awake, so Yun Ran naturally didn’t plan to continue keeping him company, nor did she intend to offer any comfort or concern. After all, the Heavenly Thunder was still posing a threat.

She reached out, grabbed it, and bundled up the remnants of the soul, shoving it into that ugly piece of wood.

Remnants of the soul: ...

If it had known earlier that coming out obediently would result in being stuffed back into the wood, it wouldn’t have come out!

As someone not from the Xuan Sect, Wang Mian shouldn’t be able to see the soul body with obvious defects, but he did indeed see it.

He also saw Yun Ran kneading that half-transparent, human-like thing into a mass, forcefully packing it into a piece of wood whose shape he couldn’t discern.

For some reason, he felt this scene was incredibly familiar, and he blurted out, "You little brat! Stop bullying my Spirit Puppet."

But the voice carried a tone of indescribable helplessness and affection, with no hint of anger.

As the words fell, not only Yun Ran but even Wang Mian was stunned, unable to comprehend why he would say such things.

Yun Ran’s body froze, abruptly looking at Wang Mian, her eyes filled with disbelief.

This was clearly the tone of the little martial uncle!

Yet now, the Spirit Puppet had been collected, and Wang Mian shouldn’t be affected.

Thinking of something, a look of resignation appeared on Yun Ran’s face.

Most Spirit Puppets are refined using their master’s Essence Blood, the Little Paperman belongs to the low-level Spirit Puppet classification.

High-level Spirit Puppets would share a portion of their master’s consciousness and cultivation. The crafting of such Spirit Puppets is extremely complicated, and it’s easy to lose control and become crippled if not careful.

But once succeeded, the benefits are immense, especially in combat, providing a helper completely synchronized with oneself and possessing top-notch combat abilities.

The Spirit Puppet she just collected had suffered brain damage and intertwined with Wang Mian’s Divine Soul for a while, so it’s not surprising that memory fusion occurred.

Wang Mian was the first to break the silence: "Is there an appearance of memories in my mind that shouldn’t exist?"

Yun Ran was genuinely experiencing a headache now; how was she supposed to extract those fused memories?

Especially considering that this person is a highly influential figure from the Wang Family. How could he possibly trust her with his mind, given that those in power always tend to be suspicious?

Yun Ran’s mind raced swiftly. The Spirit Puppet wouldn’t possess the full memory of the little martial uncle, let alone Wang Mian merely merging a portion.

As long as she found an excuse, this person shouldn’t suspect her origins or real identity.

Thinking of this, Yun Ran confidently said, "You’ve encountered ghosts, several of them, and have been unconscious for a long time; your mind is confused. Just rest well later."

Anyway, it would be pointless for her to admit that Wang Mian’s mind contains memories of the little martial uncle.

Inquiries would conclude with "mental confusion," and if that doesn’t work, then it’s "split personality."

Wang Mian always felt Yun Ran was duping him, but considering his identity, he was confident that no one dared to speak nonsense in front of him.

Only then did he wave his hand, Yun Ran grabbed her belongings and quickly exited the room.

Those masked shadows standing outside immediately bypassed Yun Ran and rushed into the room.

Only Yun Ran knew that these shadows, except for killing and following orders, were not too bright.

Otherwise, just now, with their lack of manners, anyone would be angry.

Looking up, the Heavenly Thunder clearly still hovered nearby.

Gazing at the sky sprinkled with a few stars, Yun Ran pretended not to know anything and swiftly exited the central courtyard.

Though this place was lively, it didn’t suit her well. Coming here twice had already resulted in troublesome matters, she needed to leave quickly.

Boat Old saw Yun Ran coming out and hurried to greet her: "Lady Yun, my family’s gentleman..."

"Awake, but seems his mind got damaged by a hard object, claiming to have some odd memories. You should find some authoritative brain experts to check it out..."

No matter what Wang Mian might think in the end, Yun Ran was definitely going to play the trick first.

The human brain is too intricate and sophisticated, and with current medical techniques, issues often arise if the brain is injured, so it’s understandable.

If Wang Mian insists later on treating her kindly, she could claim it’s because she saved him, thus he’s subconsciously trusting her greatly.

Boat Old, hearing Wang Mian was awake, immediately showed a look of joy, as for the brain injury, it’s not a big issue.

"I’ll arrange someone to take Lady Yun to rest..."

"No need, I have other matters to attend to and must leave the mountain first. You go check on Third Young Master Wang, if anything else occurs, contact me later."

At this moment, Boat Old’s entire attention was on Wang Mian, Yun Ran wanted to leave, and naturally, he wouldn’t waste extra time trying to keep her.

"Alright, I’ll arrange someone to send Lady Yun away."

With that, Boat Old gestured with his hand, and suddenly two people emerged from an unknown corner.

"Go find all the doctors and send Lady Yun down the mountain personally."

Yun Ran took a glance at those two with silent footsteps, especially noticing their extremely faint breathing.

She knew these two were undoubtedly elite experts, so she accepted their accompaniment, following one of them toward the garden’s main entrance.

Meanwhile, A Yu led his people, quickly locating those struck by the high voltage, with the surrounding flowers and plants withering over a large area, accompanied by a peculiar stench.

His subordinates checked briefly, their faces grim as they said, "They harbor lethal toxins, if living people come into contact, it’s certain death."

A Yu clenched his hand tightly, evidently guessing what kind of people they were who carried deadly poison.

"Clean up thoroughly; also launch a full-scale search ensuring no fish escapes the net."

His subordinates beckoned, and immediately those in professional protective suits came forward, not only removing the struck individuals but also excavating the surrounding soil, flowers, and plants.

Then the small animals that had been darting everywhere in attempt to escape suddenly started digging, as if there was something underground attracting them.

Ginsengfruit noticed Yun Ran coming out and quickly put down the tablet, dashing over.

With people around, naturally, he wouldn’t foolishly start talking, instead placing his hand into Yun Ran’s.

Then used the system voice to communicate with Yun Ran: [Host, do you recall when we first met Xie Xuzhi and encountered that Puppet named Hua Zhao? Captain Song was crying and shouting ’Senior Brother’.

Earlier at the hillside, I discovered several similar Living Dead Puppets, more than one, the Wang Family’s waters run too deep, let’s run away quickly!!!]
