Reborn as an abandoned daughter, she became a stunning genius

Jiang Ning looked at the bronze mirror and felt that it looked familiar.

Mei Zixi next to her saw the bronze mirror and recognized it at first sight. She couldn't help but exclaimed, "The dean's memory-seeking mirror!"

"Looking for the Mirror of Memory?" After Mei Zixi's reminder, Jiang Ning remembered where he had seen this mirror.

On the last day of the third assessment, they confronted Ho Lu, and Shen Lingyue suddenly appeared and used this mirror to recreate the truth.

The mirror at that time seemed to be called the Xunyi Mirror.

"The dean attaches great importance to this spiritual weapon and never lends it out. How come this mirror is in the hands of Teacher Shen?" Mei Zixi asked.

"I don't know." Ling Chuge gave the bronze mirror to Jiang Ning and turned to leave.

Jiang Ning looked at Ling Chuge's limping back and asked, "Senior Brother Ling, where are you going?"

"Of course, back to the monastery."

"Senior Brother Ling came out to deliver the mirror?"

"What else could it be?"

If it weren't for giving away this broken mirror, he wouldn't have met those three losers along the way.

Watching Ling Chuge go away, Jiang Ning withdrew his gaze and smiled apologetically at Mei Zixi beside him.

"Senior Brother Mei, it seems that I won't be able to go this time. Could you please say hello to Yue Yang on my behalf?"

Mei Zixi shook her head and said, "It's okay. If I go there next time, I will treat you well."

Farewell to Meizi Creek, Jiang Ning went to the dean's location.

The dean lives on the mountain behind Chuwu Academy.

As the most powerful person in the Chuwu Academy, the place where the dean lives is not luxurious at all, but extremely simple.

From the outside, it looks like an ordinary farmhouse.

There is a courtyard surrounded by bamboo fences. There is a vegetable field in the middle of the courtyard, a well next to the vegetable field, and a small thatched house. This is where the dean lives.

If Meizixi hadn't told him the route himself, Jiang Ning would have suspected that he was on the wrong track.

The head of a hospital actually lives in a place like this?

Jiang Ning pushed open the bamboo fence door, entered the courtyard, walked around the vegetable field, and walked straight towards the thatched house.

As I got closer, I realized that there was an old man in gray clothes sitting at the door of the thatched house. The old man's face was covered by a cattail leaf fan, as if he was taking a nap here.

"Senior, is the dean here?" Jiang Ning said to the dozing old man.

When the old man heard Jiang Ning's voice, he took off the cattail leaf fan from his face and let out a long yawn.

"Tell me, what do you want to do with the dean?" the old man said, fanning himself with a cattail leaf fan.

"Teacher Shen asked me to give this to the dean." Jiang Ning took out the bronze mirror. When the old man saw the bronze mirror, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab it.

Fortunately, Jiang Ning had quick eyesight and quick hands to put the bronze mirror back.

"Senior, this bronze mirror belongs to the dean. If I give it to you, it will be hard for me to explain it when the dean asks him about it in the future."

"I am the dean, give me this mirror quickly." The old man said urgently.

"Senior is really joking. I just met the dean a few days ago. The appearance of the dean and senior is very different." Jiang Ning explained calmly.

The old man raised his hand to brush his cheek, and his face changed instantly, becoming the same as the dean Jiang Ning saw that day, "Now, do you believe that I am the dean?"

The old man was sure of victory, but Jiang Ning smiled and shook his head.

"Since the dean is not here, I'd better come back another time."

"Stop!" the old man said urgently. Just as Jiang Ning was about to walk away, another voice suddenly came from inside the thatched house.

"and many more."

Jiang Ning stopped, turned around, and saw the real dean walking out of the room.

The dean looked at Jiang Ning with a satisfied expression.

"Yes, he is extremely intelligent and a talent that can be made."

"Dean, Teacher Shen asked me to send this thing." Jiang Ning took out the memory-seeking mirror and said.

"Come in with me." The dean turned around and walked into the room. Seeing that Jiang Ning could not be deceived, the old man at the door simply changed back to his original state.

Jiang Ning followed the dean into the thatched house.

The decoration inside the thatched house was not as simple as it looked outside, but instead exuded a sense of solemnity. Jiang Ning smelled the faint scent of sandalwood as soon as he entered the house.

"Sit." The dean pointed to the stool.

Jiang Ning sat down as he was told and took out the Xun Yi Mirror and put it on the table.

The dean did not rush to take back the memory-seeking mirror. Instead, he sat opposite Jiang Ning, poured himself a cup of tea, and spoke slowly.

"Do you know who that person is outside the door?"

Jiang Ning shook his head, "I don't know."

"He's been a friend of mine since I was young."

"That senior looks much older than the dean." Jiang Ning said truthfully.

"Did you know that when a person's cultivation reaches the level of the Spiritual Cave Mirror, his appearance will stop growing, which is what others often call immortality."

"I heard something."

"We entered Chuwu Academy together when we were young, determined to reach the peak of spiritual power. Unexpectedly, he fell in love with a girl. For this reason, he left Chuwu Academy." The dean took a sip of tea with regret in his tone.

"His talent is better than mine, and he also saved my life. If he had stayed in Chuwu Academy, I might not be the one talking to you now."

Jiang Ning didn't speak and listened quietly.

"When I saw him again, it was more than 20 years later. By that time, I had broken through the Spirit Cave Mirror and my appearance remained unchanged, but his face was full of vicissitudes and he had already aged. He came to me and asked me to borrow the Memory Mirror. He said , his wife was killed and his daughter’s whereabouts are unknown. He wants to borrow the Memory Mirror from me to find the whereabouts of the murderer and his daughter.”

"Do you know the function of the memory-seeking mirror?"

Jiang Ning replied, "I know, Xun Yi Mirror can see what happened in the past."

The dean nodded, "Yes, but not everything can be seen in the Memory-Seeking Mirror. Behind everything there is a entanglement of cause and effect. If someone uses the Memory-Seeking Mirror to uncover the hidden cause and effect, they will definitely be entangled in it."

"There are big and small causes and effects, and there are blessings and misfortunes involved. There are too many causes and effects involved in his case. For so many years, I have never given him the Mirror of Memory."

"The dean doesn't want to lend the memory-seeking mirror to senior? Is he worried that senior will be implicated in karma?"

The dean didn't answer, sighed slightly, and let her go back.

Before leaving, Jiang Ning passed by the door and saw the old man sleeping again with the cattail leaf fan covering his face.

Jiang Ning returned to the monastery and found that the bruises on Ling Chuge's face had faded a lot, and he must have used medicine.

Jiang Ning didn't say much. She picked up the Hunyuan Stone and began to practice her telekinesis. Now her telekinesis can cover one-third of the courtyard.

Not long after Jiang Ning started practicing, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the monastery.

When Jiang Ning finished his training and opened his eyes, he saw the old man in the dean's courtyard who had come to them at some point and was staring at Ling Chuge.

"Who are you?" Ling Chuge said in a bad tone.

"I'm here to find him." The old man pointed at Jiang Ning.

"Senior? The Mirror of Memory is not on me." Jiang Ning thought that the old man came here to search for the Mirror of Memory.

Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head.

"The dean said, you can help me find the truth about that year."
