Chapter 2789

"Young Master guessed right!"

Lin Wan'er on the other end of the phone said to Ye Chen without hiding anything, "I am going to Southern Yunnan, right now!"

Ye Chen asked puzzledly, "What are you going to Southern Yunnan for?"

Lin Wan'er sighed lightly and said with a somewhat melancholy tone, "Young Master, ever since the Mother of All Tea failed its tribulation and I left Southern Yunnan, in these two or three hundred years, I have never returned to Southern Yunnan. I was afraid that Wu Feiyan would set up a net in Southern Yunnan waiting for me to jump into."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added, "Wu Feiyan's Five Military Governor's Offices should have all entered a state of silence. Even if she still has eyes and ears in Southern Yunnan, they have likely been withdrawn to the location of the Central Military Governor's Office, or they have directly stopped all reconnaissance and are waiting for instructions. Now is a good time for me to return to Southern Yunnan!"

Ye Chen said, "Miss Lin, please don't let your guard down! Your importance to Wu Feiyan exceeds that of anyone else in this world. In case she still has a net waiting to catch you in Southern Yunnan, if you go back rashly, there will inevitably be great danger!"

Lin Wan'er smiled, "Young Master doesn't understand Wu Feiyan. If Young Master understood her, you would know that she is extremely cautious and is afraid of exposing her identity in front of non-core members. Therefore, if she wants to go to Southern Yunnan, the members planted by the Anti-Qing Society in Southern Yunnan will definitely be withdrawn from Southern Yunnan in advance. Right now, she still has more than twenty hours before arriving in Southern Yunnan. The current Southern Yunnan must be a vacuum zone for the Anti-Qing Society."

Ye Chen asked her, "What are you going to Southern Yunnan for, Miss Lin?"

Lin Wan'er said in a sorrowful voice, "I... I want to go to my father's grave to pay my respects. Back then, I buried my father's clothes and hat on a mountain near my grandmother's house. That was just to confuse Wu Feiyan. My father's ashes were buried by me in a place that only I know."

As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added, "Actually, I also want to go to the side of the Heavenly Pool from back then to take a look; that is also where the Mother of All Tea failed its tribulation."

Immediately, Lin Wan'er smiled and said, "Wu Feiyan's first stop upon arriving in Southern Yunnan will likely be the place where my father's cenotaph is. Southern Yunnan is very large. She will have to toss and turn for at least several hours or even longer to get there. In this way, theoretically, my window period will be longer than expected. If I move fast enough, it shouldn't be a problem to finish these two places. Even if the time overlaps with Wu Feiyan, in the vast Southern Yunnan, we might not necessarily run into each other."

Hearing her firm tone, Ye Chen said without hesitation, "Since Miss Lin is going to Southern Yunnan, then I will accompany you! Let's go now, go and return quickly!"

Lin Wan'er asked in surprise, "Young Master... you... you want to accompany me to Southern Yunnan?"

"Yes!" Ye Chen said firmly, "I'm not at ease with you going alone. You can't let those three old gentlemen accompany you, can you?"

Lin Wan'er felt moved in her heart, but said with some worry, "Young Master... I am not afraid of Wu Feiyan because I have no spiritual energy in my body. Unless Wu Feiyan recognizes me, even if we brush past each other, as long as she doesn't see my face, she won't know who I am."

Speaking of this, Lin Wan'er changed the subject and said seriously, "But Young Master is different! You possess spiritual energy and have the ring and other magic tools gifted to my father by the Master back then. If you really have close contact with Wu Feiyan, you might very well be targeted by her!"

"It's fine!" Ye Chen blurted out, "I'll go find Yun Rugong first! Doesn't she know how to hide her aura? That night at the Wanliu Villa, she followed me and Earl Changsheng all the way, and I didn't notice it at all. If she can teach me the mental method of hiding aura, I won't have to worry about being discovered by Wu Feiyan!"

"This..." Lin Wan'er hesitated, "Young Master, Yun Rugong's mental method was taught by Wu Feiyan. In case she has a way to see through it, wouldn't it still be very dangerous?"

Ye Chen smiled, "Danger is danger, but if I can really meet Wu Feiyan, it might actually be a good thing."

Lin Wan'er was even more puzzled and asked, "What exactly is Young Master planning?"

Ye Chen said earnestly, "I don't have any plans. I'm mainly worried that it's too dangerous for you to go to Southern Yunnan alone. If you want to go, then I will accompany you. If we don't meet Wu Feiyan, that is naturally the best. If we do meet Wu Feiyan, it might not necessarily be a bad thing. As long as we can avoid being discovered by Wu Feiyan, it might be possible to find the place where she and your father studied under Meng Changsheng back then through Wu Feiyan!"

As he spoke, Ye Chen further explained, "At this point, I increasingly feel that the 'Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra', the 'Nine Mysteries Sutra Preface', and my parents all have a certain connection, and they all seem inseparable from that Old Ancestor Meng Changsheng. If I can find the place where he practiced back then, perhaps I can find the things or records he left behind. In that case, I might have a chance to uncover more details about my parents' victimization."

Lin Wan'er hesitated, "If Young Master doesn't want to meet Wu Feiyan, I have a ninety percent certainty. But if Young Master wants to meet Wu Feiyan, I have a ten percent certainty... It's just that, forgive me for being blunt, with Young Master's current strength, plus the aura-hiding mental method mastered by Yun Rugong, even if you can hide your aura in front of Wu Feiyan for a while, I'm afraid it's impossible to follow Wu Feiyan from Southern Yunnan to the Ten Thousand Mountains..."

Ye Chen smiled, "Miss Lin has overlooked the power of China's Skynet surveillance. As long as we can confirm that she appears in a certain place in China, and as long as she cannot turn invisible, she will absolutely not be able to escape the scope of Skynet surveillance. At that time, I can trouble Old Mr. Sun. With his status and seniority, he should be able to directly retrieve Skynet data. However, the problem now is that in the vast sea of people, I don't know where to capture her figure first."

Lin Wan'er pondered for a moment and said, "This is not difficult. Wu Feiyan will likely go to my father's cenotaph. As long as we wait for the rabbit by the tree there, we will likely be able to see Wu Feiyan."

Ye Chen asked her, "Miss Lin, may I ask in which city in Southern Yunnan your father's cenotaph is located today?"

Lin Wan'er said, "In Dali. My grandmother was a native of Dali and lived in the ancient city. My father's cenotaph is on the mountain range by the Erhai Lake."

Ye Chen asked again, "Then may I boldly ask one more question, where are your father's ashes buried?"

Lin Wan'er said, "In Puer."

Having said that, Lin Wan'er added, "The Heavenly Pool where the Mother of All Tea was back then is in Banna."

"Dali, Puer, Banna..." Ye Chen muttered to himself, and a complete plan emerged in his mind.

Therefore, he said, "Give me two hours to prepare, Miss Lin. Two hours later, I will go to the Purple Gold Villa to pick you up, and we will go to Southern Yunnan together!"

Lin Wan'er agreed without hesitation, "Okay, then I will wait for Young Master at the Purple Gold Villa."

Ye Chen hung up the phone and immediately drove to the Champs-Élysées Hot Spring. He had to go to Champs-Élysées to see Earl Dingyuan, Yun Rugong, first, and then pick up Lin Wan'er to head to Southern Yunnan.

Therefore, while driving out, he called Chen Zekai and instructed, "Old Chen, help me rent a business jet. Don't use the Ye family's name. Find a shell company to handle it. Two and a half hours later, I want to fly to Lijiang!"
