But due to the lack of fragments, this stirring power was suppressed once again.

Suddenly, Yingbao felt the earth shaking, the roof of the cave made creaking noises, and visibly elevated a little at an alarming rate.
Next, many fragments of rocks fell down, landing in the cave house.
Yingbao frowned, instinctively raising her hand to shield her head from the falling debris. Surprisingly, she was successful in keeping the rocks about a foot away from her.
She was startled and instinctively pulled back her hand.
Therefore, the debris landed all over her body.
This… did she now possess the powers of her dreams?
Yingbao tried again and it was indeed so. It seemed that she could use her thoughts to control objects within the cave.
For instance, she could harvest the crops in the cave with a mere thought or till the land inside it.
She could also plant crops using her thoughts and water them.
However, if she used this ability frequently, she would feel dizzy and extremely fatigued.
At this moment, she clearly saw that the dense Wudingzhi fungi on the cave roof were actually growing following a strange pattern.
Thinking of the stone door, Yingbao guessed that the pattern in which the Wudingzhi grew was actually a huge Rune.
Because the spiritual power used to create the Rune was extremely dense, it bred something like a Wudingzhi.
So, was this cave actually the place where she was sealed? Were they trying to trap her in this world forever?
No, the cave house was her territory, including the small courtyard in the cave. All of it should have been her residence before.
The issue was with the cave roof.
The weird runes on the cave roof that possessed a massive spiritual power exerted immense pressure on her.
Yingbao looked at the large glowing object in the middle of the pool.
What they had sealed was actually this.
The cave roof stopped shaking and there were no more pebbles falling.
Yingbao looked around and found the cave house seemed to be a bit larger.
After leaving the cave house, Yingbao zoned out for a while. She raised her hand, trying to control the teacup on the brick bed, but failed.
After trying it a few more times, unsurprisingly, she couldn’t use her mind control power outside of the cave at all.
So basically, she was just an average human in this place, with only a little bit of divine power, which was within the tolerance of the rules of this world.
…
In the Marquis Changshou’s residence, Xiao Chengjun was comforting a crying Chen Tiantian: “Tiantian, marrying a girl from the Song family is a strategic move. The new emperor fears our brothers, but he doesn’t dare to move against the Xiao family lightly. Please endure it for a bit longer, as soon as the time is right, I will make you my legal wife.”
Chen Tiantian nestled into Xiao Chengjun’s arms, her heart filled with resentment. However, she didn’t dare to lose her temper at him, and even less criticize him for betrayal.
At present, she and her mother and brother rely on Xiao Chengjun for livelihood, living in luxury and comfort. If she truly offended him, how could her family survive?
As she was pondering how to handle Xiao Chengjun, she suddenly felt an itch on her forehead, and instinctively scratched it. An area of skin fell off right then.
“Ah!” Chen Tiantian brushed off what had fallen onto her chest, screamed in horror, and her hands started shaking uncontrollably.
“What happened?” Xiao Chengjun looked down at her.
Chen Tiantian clasped her forehead with her hands and screamed repeatedly, “I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! The one who should die is Jiang Yingbao! It’s Jiang Yingbao!”
Xiao Chengjun wanted to remove her hands to check what was wrong, but Chen Tiantian pushed him away, staggered to one side, got tripped by her dress, and fell onto the ground.
“Tiantian, what’s happened?” Xiao Chengjun hastily lifted Chen Tiantian, forcibly removing her hands from his, only to see the skin across her forehead curling up like a parched paddy field.
Xiao Chengjun recoiled in fear, stood up abruptly, then stooped down to ask again: “Tiantian, what’s going on? How did you lose your skin on your forehead?”
Chen Tiantian burst into tears: “Xiao Lang, save me! Save me.”
Xiao Chengjun frowned but patiently asked, “What exactly happened? Speak quickly.”
“It… it was Jiang Yingbao, she… she stole my life span.”
Chen Tiantian, unbothered about anything else, revealed the existence of a voice in her mind.
“I’ve been different from others since I was young, always hearing strange voices in my mind. There was always someone telling me that I would be queen of the world, ruling Phoenix Palace. But in recent years… no, since the time I have vomited blood, I’ve not heard a single sound.”
Chen Tiantian wept pitifully: “It must be some demonish trick Jiang Yingbao used. She’s been a calamity since childhood, it’s because of her my family fell from grace.”
“Xiao Lang, you must kill her! Only by killing her can we be well again, and your grand plan of restoring the kingdom will succeed.”
Chen Tiantian looked up to Xiao Chengjun with earnest words: “Xiao Lang, don’t not believe me. The voice in my head told me that I am the girl of destiny, and you’re the boy of destiny. We are destined tooccupy the highest positions, and destined to become husband and wife. Our child will also be a king.”
Xiao Mo fell into silence for a moment, walked to the door to make sure no one was around, then returned.
“What do you mean by Jiang Yingbao? How could she have stolen your life span?” This was his first time hearing such a thing.
Stealing someone’s life span, this must be an incredible spell.
Whether it’s a demonish trick or not, all he wanted to know is how Jiang Yingbao did it.
If he could have a lifespan of hundreds of years, what’s restoring the kingdom, what’s hegemony, they are all nonsense.
Of course, if one can obtain both, who would refuse?
Chen Tiantian was stunned: “I… I don’t know, but my stepfather once said that someone who practices winning by malice could achieve their goal.”
Xiao Chengjun was lost in thought.
After a pause, he glanced at the horrifying wrinkles on Chen Tiantian’s forehead, his brow furrowed in concern.
“Tiantian, has that voice in your head told you anything else?”
Chen Tiantian shook her head: “It only said this much, and also that Jiang Yingbao must be killed, the sooner the better.”
Only by killing her could she be safe.
She didn’t want to die at twenty-one.
Xiao Chengjun raised his eyebrows in deep thought, and after a while, he asked again, “Tiantian, why didn’t you talk about these things before?”
Chen Tiantian was speechless, covering her forehead, and spoke softly, “Xiao Lang, actually, Jiang Yingbao’s real surname is Chen. She is my aunt’s biological daughter, but she despises the poor and loves the rich, and refuses to acknowledge her ties with the Chen Family. Thinking about our relationship as aunt and niece, I tolerated her again and again, and didn’t want to hurt her. That’s why I didn’t inform you about the truth.”
Xiao Chengjun’s eyebrows knit together even tighter.
He had heard about Jiang Yingbao not being the Jiang Family’s biological daughter and her disputes with the Chen Family. He just didn’t realize that she was capable of stealing a person’s life span.
However, it is extraordinary that she could ben the maker of significantly effective remedies at such a young age.
Besides, she was malicious from her childhood, hurting frail and kind Tiantian again and again. That time, she knocked them all out and abandoned them in the snow, which almost killed them of freezing.
Therefore, it came as no surprise that she has done such a heinous and unorthodox act now.
“Tiantian, you’re just too kind.” Xiao Chengjun squatted down and held Chen Tiantian in his arms and sighed, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely kill her and retrieve your life span.”
He needed to make a careful plan, preferably learning the secret method first, and then killing Jiang Yingbao.
Chen Tiantian threw her arms around Xiao Chengjun’s neck, crying, “Xiao Lang, this matter needs to be handled soon rather than later. If this cannot be resolved in time, I’m afraid I won’t survive.”
“Don’t worry, it won’t be late.” Xiao Chengjun patted her back gently and comforted her soothingly.
