As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills - Chapter 707
707 Yu Junlong’s Fate
Feng Yunche could not help but laugh. “I was wondering why your parents had left in such a hurry. It turned out that it was because you were misbehaving. They left after realizing that you had left.”
Yu Junlong let out a long sigh. “That’s right. Unfortunately, I didn’t go back after that. I was kidnapped by that evil man, Xia Gui. Later on, Xia Gui died and became a ghost that haunted this painting. I was also trapped in the painting.”
Upon hearing these words, everyone came to a realization. They went forward to look at Yu Junlong and asked, “Ms. Yu, who is Xia Gui?”
This time, Jiang Ming answered on behalf of Yu Junlong. He stepped forward and said, “Xia Gui is a prince.”
Upon hearing this, Zhu Asi suddenly thought of something. He took a step forward and looked at Jiang Ming hesitantly. “Could Xia Gui be the prince of the Helian Xia Dynasty which had fallen into decline and disappeared?”
Jiang Ming thought for a moment and nodded. “That should be right. He was engaged to someone from the Daliang Kingdom.”
Zhu Asi nodded. He grinned and said, “It really is him. Rumor had it that this prince was indeed engaged to a princess from the Daliang Kingdom. Who would have thought that the princess of the Daliang Kingdom would die early, which ultimately caused the engagement to be called off.”
Then, he sighed and looked at the blank paper in the distance.
“There’s nothing to be sad about. Xia Gui’s tragic ending was his own fault.”
Thinking of Xia Gui’s attitude toward him just now, Jiang Ming was rendered speechless.
He had originally thought that Xia Gui, like Liang Shengsheng, had a request for him, but in the end, he treated him with hostility.
If Yu Junlong had not been able to summon Xia Gui, wouldn’t he have been trapped inside the painting for a long time?
“Ning Caichen, in that case, did Xia Gui trap you inside?”
Zhu Asi sensed something was wrong and quickly asked.
Jiang Ming frowned and then said, “Yes, Xia Gui infuriated me. He’s really evil. He doesn’t deserve to be with Liang Shengsheng.”
Zhu Asi could not help but be amused by Jiang Ming’s answer. He recalled the name the latter mentioned just now and felt odd again. “Liang Shengsheng? Is she the princess of the Daliang Kingdom who died early?”
“Could that female ghost be the princess of the Daliang Kingdom, Liang Shengsheng?”
The princess’s eyes widened. She stood up and looked at Jiang Ming. She felt strange.
It was not as if she had not heard some rumors about the princess of the Daliang Kingdom.
The princess of the Daliang Kingdom was doted on, but she was sick and mentally unwell, so she died early.
As for the engagement between the princess of the Daliang Kingdom and the prince of the Helian Xia Dynasty, she had only heard a few stray rumors and did not know the truth.
She only knew that the princess of the Daliang Kingdom and the prince of the Helian Xia Dynasty were very much in love. However, the heavens did not approve of their love, and the two of them died.
“You’re right. I don’t know why she’s looking for you, but I’ve already agreed to some of her conditions,” Jiang Ming said as he looked at the princess thoughtfully.
Thinking that the princess could see Liang Shengsheng, everyone immediately surrounded her. They looked at the princess with confusion in their eyes.
She also realized this and became confused. “It’s really strange. How could I see the ghost of the princess of the Daliang Kingdom? I’ve never seen the princess of the Daliang Kingdom before, let alone come into contact with her.”
Jiang Ming sized up the princess and said seriously, “Princess, your entire body is lifeless. It’s normal to see a ghost with such a temperament. Right now, the princess of the Daliang Kingdom is already in the form of a ghost. That’s why you saw her. She doesn’t have any bad intentions toward you. She just wants someone to help her.”
The princess thought about Jiang Ming’s words and felt that they made sense. She said seriously, “Lord Ning Caichen, it’s good that I have you. Otherwise, I would still be confused about what’s going on.”
“What did Liang Shengsheng tell you?” Zhu Asi heard Jiang Ming’s words and asked in confusion.
“Liang Shengsheng told me…”
Jiang Ming frowned and wanted to continue, but in an instant, his memory seemed to have been erased and he couldn’t remember a thing she had said.
“What’s wrong? Ning Caichen, are you alright?”
Zhu Asi panicked and looked at Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming shook his hand and looked at Zhu Asi. “Zhu Asi, I’m fine. Don’t worry. I just can’t remember what Liang Shengsheng said to me. I feel that part of my memory has been wiped.”
Zhu An’an was a little worried. “How could you have forgotten? Could something have happened? Liang Shengsheng might have done something to Mister!”
Jiang Ming thought about it and felt a little strange. Then, he thought of what Zhu An’an said and looked at his hands.
It was only this that had disappeared from his memory.
What Zhu An’an said was very reasonable.
However, why did Liang Shengsheng want to wipe this part of his memory?
Just as he was feeling puzzled, Master Murong asked, “Why don’t we go somewhere else? There’s already a big hole in my roof. I’ll have to get someone to fix it later.”
He was very irritated.
He had never thought that the leopard man would destroy his roof. Moreover, this roof was his favorite!
Master Murong looked at Jiang Ming with his eyes wide open.
He had to make sure Ning Caichen stayed with them.
Ning Caichen was able to come here because he was very capable! He did not want to lose such a good fighter.
Master Murong did not want to make an enemy of him.
Murong Kuan started to get angry. “Why should we clean up his mess? The hole in the roof was clearly caused by him.”
Murong Kuan was very loud. It was as if he was afraid that no one around him could hear him.
“Murong Kuan, what are you talking about? How disrespectful! Hurry up and apologize to Lord Ning Caichen and the others!”
Master Murong was infuriated.
Jiang Ming smiled and said helplessly, “The previous letter of challenge seems to have been from Murong Kuan.”
He was complaining internally.
First, they had issued a letter of challenge to him, and now, they were blaming him for the hole in their roof.
He was innocent! He would not have come here if not for that letter!
