Chapter 591 Offering Fish 27

"What?!" Lin Jiu was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped, and she couldn't help but blurt out an English sentence.

Fortunately, Liao Tingyan had gone off to play separately from them; otherwise, upon hearing Lin Jiu's shout, she would definitely have rushed over with tears in her eyes, like a fellow villager meeting another villager.

Sima Jiao looked completely bewildered, clearly not understanding what Lin Jiu was talking about, his face full of question marks. "What?"

Seeing Sima Jiao's puzzled look, Lin Jiu quickly cleared her throat to cover up her lapse in composure, "Ahem, I mean, this person is actually of Fengshan bloodline, it's really hard to tell."

You know, according to rumors, only Sima Jiao is left as the sole heir of the Sima clan. Who would have thought that there are other members of the Sima clan still alive? This is simply unbelievable!

However, Lin Jiu did not doubt Sima Jiao's words in the slightest.

Because she knew Sima Jiao very well, he was definitely not the kind of person who would lie, and he disdained to lie, let alone make up stories about something so closely related to his people.

Sima Jiao gave Yan Huan, a cynical and unambitious "scumbag," a deep look.

Then, Sima Jiao slowly raised his hand, muttering incantations. A faint light flickered at his fingertips, and with his movement, a transparent barrier quietly unfolded around him and Lin Jiu like a thin veil.

This barrier isolated them from the outside world, creating an independent space.

After doing all this, Sima Jiao began to explain.

It turns out that all of this started with the traditions of the Sima clan.

To maintain the purity of their family bloodline, the Sima clan always prohibited intermarriage with other clans.

However, some clansmen were unwilling to be bound in this way, and they resolutely left the Sima clan.

As time went by, these people intermarried and settled elsewhere, and their bloodlines gradually became diluted.

In contrast, those who remained within the clan naturally had a deeper bloodline. Yan Huan was likely a descendant of this group of Sima clan members.

Sima Jiao was delighted to meet his clansmen, but a hint of doubt also crossed his mind.

It was such a coincidence that they had just arrived at Baifeng Mountain when they encountered Yan Huan, who possessed the bloodline of Fengshan.

Such a coincidence makes one wonder if there is some kind of conspiracy involved.

Lin Jiu noticed Sima Jiao's change and gently tugged at his sleeve, signaling him not to overthink things.

However, Sima Jiao's brows remained furrowed, clearly indicating that he was lost in thought.

Lin Jiu sighed helplessly. Sometimes people just overthink things and easily get caught up in internal conflicts.

In her view, problems should be solved.

So Lin Jiu quickly cast an invisibility spell on the two of them, and then pulled Sima Jiao along to openly follow behind Yan Huan.

After learning that Yan Huan was of Fengshan blood, Lin Jiu carefully examined him this time and found that this man was indeed hiding his true intentions. After pushing away the woman who was blocking him, Lin Jiu saw the heartache that flashed quickly in his eyes. Hey, he really is two-faced.

The two followed behind Yan Huan, watching him feign indifference as he chased away the mother and daughter, as if he had no feelings for them whatsoever.

Then, she watched as Yan Huan entered the brothel, indulging in sensual pleasures and becoming addicted to wine and women.

Finally, they followed Yan Huan all the way back to the Yan residence.

Upon entering the courtyard, Lin Jiu was stunned by the sight before her—the concubines, dressed in their finest attire, vied with each other in beauty, leaving her dazzled and overwhelmed.

This scene made Lin Jiu begin to doubt whether the tenderness she had seen Yan Huan feel for the mother and daughter in front of the brothel was just an illusion.

However, what surprised Lin Jiu even more was yet to come.

After they entered the Yan residence, Yan Huan was suddenly knocked unconscious by Sima Jiao.

Lin Jiu stared wide-eyed at Sima Jiao, who quickly transformed into Yan Huan's appearance, and inwardly admired him: "Impressive! His mind works really fast!"
