The day before returning to the Xuantian Tower, Gu Shengyin specially came to visit her "frightened and bedridden" fifth sister.
Cheng Lingyu frowned when she heard the news.
She had also heard about Cheng Linyin from Xiao Lian. She and Cheng Lingyu were people from two completely different worlds.
It could be seen from the name. In the Great General's Estate, the direct descendants all had the surname "Lin", while the concubines could only take the name "Ling".
In any case, Cheng Lingyu had already come to the courtyard, so she had to get up and meet her.
"Fifth Sister, are you feeling better these past two days?" Gu Shengyin glanced at the surrounding environment. Although it wasn't as gorgeous and exquisite as her courtyard, it didn't mistreat her.
She carefully sized up Cheng Lingyu. Her face was pale, her expression docile, and her eyes were evasive. She was still the same as before.
Her acting skills were not bad.
Cheng Lingyu was also discreetly sizing up Gu Shengyin.
From the moment Gu Shengyin came in, the instinct engraved in the depths of her soul drove her to stay away from this person.
Cheng Lingyu was very strong, so strong that she was no match for her.
She lowered her head and softly replied, "Thank you for your concern, Eldest Sister. I'm fine now."
Gu Shengyin didn't stay for long. She only said a few words and left a lot of precious herbs before leaving.
After Gu Shengyin left, Cheng Lingyu swept away her previous timidity. Her gaze swept over the neatly arranged herbs and she sneered.
"Young Miss, did Eldest Miss send these over? They're all good things! I'll go boil the medicine for you. "Xiao Lian came in and said in surprise when she saw these things.
Cheng Lingyu looked at the little girl busying herself and didn't say anything.
Was Cheng Linyin concerned about her?
Cheng Linyin was a high and mighty person who had only met her a few times. Why would she suddenly care about her?
What did she want from her? Or rather, what did she want from her?
Cheng Lingyu didn't understand, but she believed that Cheng Linyin's goal wasn't simple.
Cheng Lingyu's expression only turned cold after Xiaolian happily took a stalk of spiritual medicine to boil for her.
Don't think that you can bribe me with just a few herbs.
She had experienced how the Protector General's Residence had treated Cheng Lingyu all these years.
Since she had come to this body, she would naturally "repay" it on her behalf.
Cheng Lingyue, as well as those who had ignored her for so many years, would not be left out.
Gu Shengyin returned to the Xuantian Tower.
There were very few people on this high tower.
The Head Reverend didn't need anyone to serve him. Only Cheng Linyin and a few servants were left in the Xuantian Tower.
Gu Shengyin went to see the High Priest.
"Teacher."
The high priest opened his eyes. "You're back?"
"Yes," Gu Shengyin replied. She looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
How could the high priest miss this opportunity? He said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Gu Shengyin's expression became serious. "Yes."
She began to talk about nothing else but Cheng Lingyu.
"… My fifth sister seems to be different from before. I suspect that she might have been possessed," she said with a frown.
Although possession was rare in the Tian Xuan Continent, it wasn't something that had never happened before.
However, possession was very cruel to the original owner. The soul that had been possessed would dissipate without any support. Therefore, possession was also seen as a demonic technique.
In the Tian Xuan Land, almost everyone had the right to kill a person who had taken over another's body.
