The Mightiest Little Master of Metaphysics-Chapter 23 The Nameless Rage Mostly Stems from Incompetence

"There's a case that all the seniors have gone to see. Everyone thinks it's quite challenging, so they recommended I take charge."

"Oh, really?" The Old Master squinted with delight. "Getting to work with the 49 Bureau is a good thing, but don't put too much pressure on yourself. The 49 Bureau is filled with experts. Assisting in this case will broaden your horizons, so learn from the seniors."

After the Old Master finished speaking, Yun Ying blinked: That's it—

She thought the Old Master would be more excited. Disappointment flickered through her eyes.

The Old Master waved his hand, "Alright, go ahead and be busy, but don't let this affect your health."

"Okay." Yun Ying lowered her eyes, her peripheral vision sweeping past Yun Qi's face.

Even though she was quiet this time, for some reason, Yun Ying just found her displeasing.

A certain human child blinked innocently, thinking that this elder sister was truly troublesome.

If she opened her mouth, this sister didn't like it; if she didn't, she didn't like that either.

Hmm—most of this nameless anger stems from incompetence.

As Master Taoist Wu You said.

Yun Ying took a few steps away, and behind her came the happy voice of Little Dumpling on the swing.

She let out a cold snort, returned to her upstairs room, locked the door, and called her father.

As soon as she heard the familiar voice, the grievances buried in her heart surged up.

"Dad, did you know Yun Qi is back?"

Yun Qiucheng, who was far overseas, sounded tired, "Yes, I know, hasn't she just gotten back a few days ago? What's up?"

"It's nothing." Yun Ying bit her lip. "Yesterday, we went to the hospital. I felt the energy there wasn't right and wanted to persuade Grandma to transfer hospitals. She went against me, said all the nice things, and made Grandpa and Grandma very happy. This morning, the hospital called to say Grandma is much better and will be discharged soon."

"Isn't that a good thing?" Yun Qiucheng missed the underlying meaning in his daughter's words.

Yun Ying was a bit deflated, "I'm saying, won't Grandpa think I'm not as capable as her? After all, she was right, and I was wrong."

"How could that be!" Yun Qiucheng laughed, "She's only been back for a few days. Besides, she lived at Yuqing Temple for four years, and no one said she had any talent in Mysticism. It's probably just a kid saying pleasant things and happening to be right."

Yun Ying was slightly relieved but still not entirely at ease,

"But I always feel like the family, especially Uncle, really trusts her."

Recognizing the tone, Yun Qiucheng finally heard the resentment in his daughter's voice and guessed what might have happened. He chuckled, "There haven't been any children at home for years, so it's understandable that your grandparents and Uncle dote on her. You're grown up now, don't argue with a child."

Yun Ying responded with a grievance-laden "Mm."

Then added, "Dad, a strange accidental death case was discovered in Hai City this morning. I'm assisting the 49 Bureau in investigating it."

Yun Qiucheng was very gratified, "Good, Dad knows you're excellent. You need to have confidence, too. Let's not worry about little kids."

With her father's reassurance, Yun Ying felt much better.

"Dad will be abroad for a while longer. This project is encountering some trouble. In a few days, your brother should be back, and having someone to back you up makes you feel happier, doesn't it?" Yun Qiucheng teased his daughter.

Yun Ying smiled, "Dad, I'm fine. You take care of yourself abroad."

After hanging up the phone, Yun Ying let out a long breath. Her brother would be back soon, and she needed to earnestly assist the 49 Bureau in solving the case.

Once this case is handled well, she could establish her position within the entire Xuan Sect, and by then, who would even notice the Little Ghost.

With this in mind, Yun Ying opened the documents and started to carefully review the information related to Li Mingshen's investigation.
