"Wan Nianbei is dead." Lin Miao saw Lin Shen and could no longer hold back. She burst into tears with a loud sob.
"What happened? I saw him a few days ago, and he was perfectly fine." Lin Shen quickly walked over to comfort Lin Miao.
"He failed the ascension, leaving behind only this unfinished Spirit Base." Lin Miao, still crying, explained the entire situation.
"Maybe this is just fate." Lin Shen was about to say something to console Lin Miao when Lei knocked on the door from outside.
"Master, people from the Wan Family are here. They want to see you. There are a lot of them—it feels a bit off," Lei said.
"What are they here for?" Lin Shen couldn't help but furrow his brows.
Lin Miao wiped the tears off her face, stood up, and said, "No matter what, they are his family. You go greet them first. I'll change my clothes and sort myself out before coming out."
"Alright," Lin Shen got up and headed to the living room.
