I'm really not the god of time.

Chapter 46 My Identity Has Been Exposed

The person who posted this trade message is either that mysterious person or his accomplice.

The post's ID is "Clover Hermitage," which looks like a secret organization.

But regardless of which one it was, he finally caught a clue.

Huang Ku pondered for a moment and then came up with an idea.

He decided to pose as a buyer and lure the other party into taking the bait.

He immediately placed an order for a copy of "Meditation Method Level 1".

The transaction was then arranged to take place in the Necromancer's laboratory.

The trading time is set for 8 PM on weekend nights.

On the other side, Zhang Lingyun saw the order but didn't pay much attention to it and accepted it directly.

He had assumed that the order was placed by a student from Green Island University.

Upon receiving the message that the order had been accepted, Huang Ku couldn't help but smile smugly, muttering to himself:

"You brat, you're still too young and your IQ is too low."

"With your meager skills, you dare to mess with deep networks?"

"Let's see how you run this time. Just wait until I turn you into a puppet!"

The thought of being able to control the mysterious man and gain that magical trading ability made Huang Ku burst into laughter.

The laughter was shrill and strange, and those passing by in the corridor sighed inwardly, thinking that Professor Huang had finally gone mad.

The weekend arrived in the blink of an eye.

As agreed, Zhang Lingyun took Xia Youran hiking, and also to look for four-leaf clovers to digest the [Mage's Hand] potion.

The two climbed up and down the mountain, crossing one grassland after another.

All that could be found were ordinary clover; there wasn't a single four-leaf clover to be found.

By the afternoon, both of them were so tired that they had lost all their energy.

I simply lay down on the hillside and watched the clouds drift by in the sky.

Zhang Lingyun sighed, his tone helpless:

"Why is this thing so hard to find?"

Xia Youran smiled and sighed:

"That's normal. The chances of finding a four-leaf clover are very small."

Although she didn't find a four-leaf clover, Xia Youran was quite happy.

Her parents have been arguing ever since she grew up, and her family has never taken her on a trip.

Although this mountain is not very big today, and there is nothing particularly beautiful about it.

But at this moment, with someone who cares about her by her side, she truly felt a long-lost happiness.

The two of them lay there quietly, watching the sunset slowly descend.

Xia Youran's cheeks flushed slightly from the sunlight.

She tried for a while and finally mustered up her courage.

She quietly reached out her fair little hand and shyly grasped one of Zhang Lingyun's fingers.

"Um?!"

Zhang Lingyun glanced at her, then grabbed her hand and intertwined their ten fingers.

"Ugh!" Xia Youran muttered, her face flushed.

"What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly." Zhang Lingyun rolled over and took the opportunity to lie on top of her.

"What are you going to do?" Xia Youran asked, somewhat frightened.

Although she is very unruly at home, she is very reserved in the wild.

Zhang Lingyun looked at her with a smile, admiring her rabbit-like expression.

Those big eyes, those red lips...

"Don't move! There are blades of grass on your face." Zhang Lingyun slowly leaned closer.

Xia Youran closed her eyes tightly, her heart pounding like a motor.

But at that moment, a figure suddenly appeared above their heads.

A cold voice rang out:

"You two are really having a great time."

Zhang Lingyun suddenly looked up and saw Ding Shuangshuang's cold face.

He quickly stood up and asked warily:

How did you know we were here?

Ding Shuangshuang's tone was icy:

"I've been watching you for a long time. You're the mysterious people who made the deal with Huang Ku, aren't you?"

Xia Youran's pupils dilated sharply, and she instinctively stepped in front of Zhang Lingyun.

She pursed her lips tightly, fearing that Ding Shuangshuang might suddenly go mad and pull out a gun to kill someone.

But Ding Shuangshuang didn't make a move; she simply watched them quietly and said:

"Let's talk."

Ding Shuangshuang has been having a difficult time lately.

Huang Ku no longer trusts her, and he has spent all his savings.

The mother in the hospital is running out of money to prolong her life.

That's why she took the risk and came to him, ready to make one last gamble.

She had to persuade Zhang Lingyun to help her.

If Zhang Lingyun refuses, she is prepared to die together with him.

Ding Shuangshuang led Zhang Lingyun and Xia Youran into an inconspicuous coffee shop.

This shop looks like an ordinary leisure place, but it is actually a property of the "Eclipse Society".

On the surface, they sell coffee and bread, but in reality, they engage in many shady transactions.

Upon entering the private room, Ding Shuangshuang's gaze lingered on the two of them, her mind filled with doubt.

Xia Youran stood in front of Zhang Lingyun from beginning to end.

His shoulders were tense, and his eyes were full of vigilance, like a kitten protecting its owner.

This is highly unusual—

Logically speaking, shouldn't it be the boys protecting the girls?

Ding Shuangshuang frowned, her tone filled with confusion:

"What exactly is your relationship? Something feels off."

Zhang Lingyun would never say that she was my "resurrection armor".

So he said perfunctorily:

"We are cousins."

Ding Shuangshuang's lips twitched twice, and she silently grumbled to herself:

Cousins? So you're still on the hillside doing those shameless things?

But she didn't expose it, because there were more important things to discuss right now.

When the waiter brought the coffee and dessert, Ding Shuangshuang's tone gradually became serious, carrying a hint of resolute determination:

"Do you know? Huang Ku has been looking for you."

Zhang Lingyun frowned, forcibly suppressing his racing heartbeat, and calmly asked in return:

Why did he contact us?

"What else could it be?"

Ding Shuangshuang sneered, "Just because of that deal in the hospital, that magical spell that could exchange lifespan and power, how could he not want to possess it?"

Zhang Lingyun's brows furrowed even more.

He clearly remembered that after the transaction was completed, he took away Huang Ku's related memories.

How could the other party still know?

Ding Shuangshuang seemed to see through his confusion, her tone carrying a hint of sarcasm:

"You are still too young. You can't even imagine how many strange magics exist in this world that can break through your memory lock."

"So he already knows who we are?"

Zhang Lingyun remained calm, pretending to be composed as she pressed for answers while her mind raced with calculations.

Not yet.

Ding Shuangshuang shook her head. "But if he keeps searching like this, he'll eventually find you."

Zhang Lingyun fell silent.

He was well aware of Huang Ku's strength; he knew he was no match for him.

The only way is to rely on Lan Ruoxi's power.

However, he had only known Lan Ruoxi for a short time and couldn't figure out what kind of person this "witch" was.

What if she finds out about my secret and wants to keep it for herself?

Just as Zhang Lingyun was pondering, Ding Shuangshuang dropped another bombshell:

"That post selling 'Holy Spirit Medicine' on the deep web, was that yours?"
