Chapter 124 The Art of Qi Observation
Chen Xuan drove away.
When Chen Xuan returned to the villa, Song Ping, having been too frightened, had taken some sleeping pills and was already asleep. Su Gan, worried about safety, had already arranged for the Su family to pick up Su Yunxi.
"Mr. Chen!" Hei Hu, acutely sensing the smell of blood on Chen Xuan, said softly.
"It's getting late, you should head back first," Chen Xuan waved his hand.
Hei Hu signaled his subordinates to leave and then, after a moment of hesitation, couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Chen, have you heard? The Yu family villa was struck by lightning. Countless Yu family members were killed or injured, including the Yu father and son."
"I haven't heard about that," Chen Xuan shook his head, his eyes focused ahead.
"Oh."
Hei Hu nodded and briefly explained the situation, then smiled, "Then congratulations, Mr. Chen. With the deaths of the Yu father and son, the Yu family is no longer a force to be reckoned with. I suspect they will be completely divided within three months."
Chen Xuan nodded.
Hei Hu turned to leave, muttering as he walked, "Even if Mr. Chen is powerful, he's still human. How could he control lightning? I guess I was overthinking it."
Chen Xuan walked towards the villa, hearing Hei Hu's words clearly, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the deaths of the Yu father and son might be linked to him, the event was too extraordinary. Few people would believe that their deaths had anything to do with him.
Back at the villa, Chen Xuan's phone rang. It was Su Qian calling.
"Chen Xuan, did you find the killer?" Su Qian's voice was low and tired. He hadn't closed his eyes all this time.
Chen Xuan replied calmly, "Uncle Su, I've already dealt with the killer. You don't need to worry."
"That's good." Su Qian's heart stirred, and he asked, "The Yu family had an accident, did you know?"
Chen Xuan knew Su Qian was testing him. He controlled his emotions and said blandly, "I just found out."
"Was it you? If it was you, just tell me. This old body is still here, and no one in Jiangzhou can touch you!" Su Qian's voice was deep.
Chen Xuan fell silent.
He hadn't intended to deceive Su Qian, but this involved the Dark Blood Organization. He said, "I wish I had such great abilities."
"Oh." Su Qian shook his head, thinking he had been overthinking things, and hung up.
Shortly after, Su Yunxi also called. Chen Xuan was somewhat surprised. Su Yunxi had been frightened today and was still awake.
When he answered, Chen Xuan realized that Su Yunxi had learned about the demise of the Su father and son and had called specifically to share this good news with him.
Chen Xuan was also very happy. They chatted for a bit, but Su Yunxi was clearly getting sleepy, and after a short conversation, she hung up.
Then, he lay on the bed, processing the information he had obtained from Yu Tiansheng.
He had initially thought this was just an ordinary mission, but now it seemed far from simple. Not only did he play a role as a protector in this mission, but he also had other roles, or perhaps the Chen family had a role.
This was because the Chen family also possessed an ancient jade, and Su Yunxi had one as well.
Even an organization as large as the Dark Blood Organization wanted that ancient jade, so its preciousness could be imagined. Considering everything, this ancient jade was the key point.
What exactly was this ancient jade?
The next day.
Chen Xuan eagerly called his old leader first thing in the morning to inquire about the ancient jade. The old man simply told him to know what he should know and not to know what he shouldn't.
Chen Xuan was so angry he almost jumped up at his leader's evasive official response, but he knew his leader's temperament well, so he stopped asking.
However, his curiosity about what this ancient jade was only grew.
He had actually subtly asked Su Yunxi, but Su Yunxi seemed not to know anything about an ancient jade. Suddenly, a thought struck him. Although Song Ping had amnesia, she was sometimes lucid. He got up and went downstairs to ask Song Ping.
After Song Ping took the fifth dose of medicine, her condition improved significantly compared to before. Chen Xuan asked Song Ping, but she had no idea about any ancient jade.
"It seems I can only find clues after I find the sixth spiritual herb and clear the toxins in my mother's brain to restore her to normal."
"The sixth spiritual herb... it won't be long now."
Chen Xuan's gaze became firm.
The old medicines sent by the wealthy people of Jiangbei in recent days, along with the five semi-spiritual herbs obtained from the Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce last night, would be enough for a while.
Since he had nothing else to do, Chen Xuan walked into the kitchen, intending to refine a batch of pills first.
Chen Xuan busied himself for two hours and refined a batch of pills. After putting all the pills away, he stretched and sat on the sofa.
As for the pill formula for replenishing spiritual energy, Chen Xuan was temporarily unable to refine it due to the lack of the crucial Jiānjiā grass.
At this moment, the latest news was being broadcast on television.
One piece of news was about the Yu family being struck by lightning, which some experts attributed to a natural disaster.
Another piece of news reported the discovery of two fugitives near the Yu family villa, who were shot dead. Relevant departments were offering a reward for the anonymous hero.
The two fugitives were none other than Elder Wu and Boss Shen.
Chen Xuan was not surprised by this.
However, Chen Xuan was unaware that this incident had attracted the attention of the Yanhuang Iron Brigade.
Just then, Su Yunxi knocked and walked in.
Aunt Tang was extremely welcoming to Su Yunxi, constantly asking about her well-being, serving tea and fruits. Chen Xuan always felt that Aunt Tang treated Su Yunxi even better than him, as if Su Yunxi were her own daughter.
Su Yunxi sat by Song Ping's side, watching television and chatting. During their conversation, she even brought up some of Chen Xuan's embarrassing moments, making Chen Xuan blush profusely.
Su Yunxi, on the other hand, pursed her lips and smiled, her expression like a spring breeze.
Looking at Su Yunxi's delicate profile, Chen Xuan's heart trembled. Even though he had spent a lot of time with Su Yunxi, he was still occasionally captivated by her every smile and expression.
It was understandable, as Su Yunxi was beautiful, elegant, and considerate. Any man would be moved.
As he was thinking, Chen Xuan's brow suddenly furrowed, and a strange thought arose in his mind.
It was normal for Su Yunxi to be attractive, but what qualifications did he have to attract Su Yunxi's attention? After all, they had only met for a few months. At that time, he was just a small security guard earning just over three thousand a month, who had just been cuckolded.
Was there something strange about this?
After all, there were countless strange and wondrous Feng Shui arts in the world. It wasn't just Chen Xuan; even his father, Chen Jianhua, might not be able to guarantee expertise in all Feng Shui arts.
Chen Xuan subtly activated the Art of Qi Observation.
The Art of Qi Observation was a simple Feng Shui technique within the Chen family's Feng Shui tradition. It involved gathering qi in one's eyes to see if a person had been subjected to a spell. The last time at the Su family's residence, he had indeed used the Art of Qi Observation to discern that Jiang Biyun had been under a spell.
Chen Xuan was quite nervous when he used the Art of Qi Observation on Su Yunxi.
If Su Yunxi had indeed been under a spell, wouldn't their relationship be fake?
At this moment, Chen Xuan even hesitated, not wanting to uncover the truth and ruin their relationship. However, this would be irresponsible to both of them.
He gritted his teeth and still performed the Art of Qi Observation on Su Yunxi...
