Chapter 345 Impatience Ruins Grand Plans
Although it was very dark in the dry well, both Su Jian and Master Chen were cultivators, and their sight was not hindered in the least.
“Indeed, she has been rescued!”
Master Chen immediately noticed the empty stone pillar, as well as the scattered talismans and iron chains on the ground. His eyes were filled with surprise; he had not expected that within the small Taoyuan County, there were such capable people who could rescue Lin Manyue’s soul from the Formation he had set up.
However, Su Jian’s attention was now focused on Su Yuan, who was lying on the ground.
“Son!” Su Jian hurried over, his eyes filled with astonishment. Why was his son in this place?
He shook him for a long time, but Su Yuan still did not wake up.
Worry was written all over Su Jian’s face. He circulated his Cultivation Technique, and a wisp of True Qi blossomed in the palm of his hand, which he directly infused into Su Yuan’s body.
However, Su Jian was just a novice cultivator, and his treatment had no effect. Su Yuan remained unconscious. Ultimately, Su Jian looked towards Master Chen, sending a look that pleaded for help.
Master Chen nodded gently and waved his hand, sending a wisp of black True Qi into Su Yuan’s body.
With Master Chen’s help, it didn’t take long for Su Yuan to slowly open his eyes. His gaze was full of confusion, and when he saw himself lying in Su Jian’s arms, a look of panic flickered across his eyes. He immediately pushed him away, saying, “You… Who are you?”
“???”
Seeing his son not recognizing him, Su Jian was momentarily stunned, then immediately said, “Son, I am your father.”
“No… You are not my father, I don’t have a father.”
Su Yuan didn’t remember anything and ran into the darkness without saying another word.
Seeing this, Su Jian quickly chased after him, blocking Su Yuan’s path with a leap, and said anxiously, “Son, I am your father, why don’t you remember me? Don’t be afraid, quickly tell me, what exactly happened?”
However, Su Yuan completely ignored Su Jian and kept retreating.
Something was not right!
Su Jian immediately charged forward, forcefully grabbed Su Yuan’s wrist, feeling a sense of crisis which made Su Yuan resist even more fiercely. In a desperate move, Su Jian raised his hand and chopped at Su Yuan’s neck.
The massive force made Su Yuan roll his eyes back, and he fainted directly into Su Jian’s arms.
“Master Chen, what on earth is going on? Why doesn’t my son recognize me?”
Su Jian first checked Su Yuan’s body but found nothing amiss, so he had to seek help from Master Chen once more.

Master Chen slowly approached Su Jian’s side, extended his index and middle fingers, and placed them on Su Yuan’s head, feeling carefully for a moment. His eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he gave Su Jian a strange look, “Your son has become foolish!”
“What did you say?”
Su Jian was taken aback, asking in disbelief.
Master Chen continued, “His brain has been damaged. Although his life is not in danger, he has become foolish and no longer remembers the events that happened. It seems your son has encountered a very powerful cultivator.”
“He turned my son into a fool!!”
It was well known that Su Jian was fanatical about protecting his son, never wanting his son to suffer any wrongs. Now that someone had made his son into a fool, the rage inside him caused his body to tremble slightly, and his face turned fiercely vicious:
“Who on earth dared to turn my son into a fool? I will dig this person out and then crush their bones to dust!”
With that said, Su Jian clenched his fists tightly, his face fierce as he took out his cellphone, preparing to call his subordinates to search for the hidden cultivator within Taoyuan County. He was determined to find them and avenge his son.
However, Master Chen grabbed Su Jian’s arm, gently shaking his head, “Su Family head, this is a critical moment for the Su Family. A small impatience spoils great plans!”
“But, my son has already been turned into an idiot.”
Su Jian really couldn’t swallow this grievance.
Master Chen said, “I know you are protective of your son and don’t want him to suffer any harm, but now our long-prepared plan is about to begin. If this issue affects it, then all the efforts we’ve made over the years would have been in vain. After all, once our plan succeeds, wouldn’t it be a simple matter for you to kill whoever you wish?”
Hearing this, the anger on Su Jian’s face finally subsided.
Indeed!
To made every member of the Su Family a cultivator, Su Jian had invested a substantial amount of money and effort. The plan was about to be set in motion. If any problems arose at this critical juncture, all his years of hard work would be wasted.
Stay calm!
At this time, he absolutely needed to stay calm.
“First, take your son with you.”
Master Chen patted Su Jian’s shoulder and leaped out of the dry well with a bound.
“Son, I’m sorry. Let’s set your vengeance aside for now. After I complete the plan I’ve been working on all these years, I’ll help you seek your revenge. Rest assured, I will make those who hurt you suffer a fate worse than death!!”
Su Jian clenched his eyes shut, speaking fiercely.
With that, Su Jian picked up Su Yuan and leaped out of the dry well.
At that moment, Master Chen was standing beside the dry well, waiting. When Su Jian emerged, the two exchanged a glance and quickly left Taoyuan University.
…
Li Qianfan was unaware of the incident that took place in the dry well. After rescuing Lin Manyue, he immediately took her back to his dormitory.
When they got back to the dormitory, Li Qianfan noticed something was amiss. In just the few minutes it took to walk there, Lin Manyue’s Soul Power had weakened at an alarming rate, and her body, which had initially seemed very real, now appeared much more tenuous.
“Auntie, how do you feel?”
Li Qianfan asked seriously.
“It’s getting cold again.” Lin Manyue’s body was becoming more and more ephemeral, and the scars that had previously vanished were now reappearing.
“I understand now!”
Suddenly, Li Qianfan realized something, “After you left the dry well, your soul hasn’t had any protection, and your Soul Power has been dissipating. In no time at all, you’ll be utterly annihilated.”
“Ah, what should we do?”
Lin Manyue realized that once her soul was utterly annihilated, her true body would also die instantly.
“First, take these pills.”
Li Qianfan took out the pills he’d concocted earlier from his pocket. He had thought they wouldn’t be needed, but as it turned out, they were indeed necessary.
Lin Manyue didn’t want to suffer annihilation and immediately took the pills from Li Qianfan, swallowing them one by one. After taking the pills, her body became much more substantial than before.
But Li Qianfan knew it was too early to celebrate. He had to quickly find a place for Lin Manyue’s soul to reside.
Otherwise, no matter how many pills she consumed, it would be of no help.
Ah, got it!
Suddenly, Li Qianfan’s eyes lit up as he thought of a very good solution…
