Chapter 21: Taking Control of Your Own Destiny
After Yun Qianyu returned to the tea shop, she saw that the two girls had finally woken up.
He smiled, "You two have a good rest, do you want some refreshments?"
Xiao Ruoyi looked at the seemingly mortal shopkeeper with burning eyes,
"This time, we really encountered a great creation, I must not waste this opportunity, this may be my only chance. ”
She stood up and walked towards the store, her actions startling Sun Yaoyao.
It's no wonder that she is so reckless and bold, it is really a series of recent events that have driven her crazy.
When a person is too stressed, he can't manage too many consequences, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, it will be regarded as a lifesaver.
As a genius disciple of Xuanze Sect, Xiao Ruoyi originally had a bright future, but recent events made her gradually lose her original future and status.
Not only that, but she was also faced with the choice of whether to give in or stubbornly resist.
Xiao Ruoyi came from a big family in the middle region of the Southern Continent, and as the most qualified disciple of the younger generation in the family, she thought that she was favored by the Xuanze Sect, a cultivation sect behind the family, and was accepted as an inner disciple.
She was originally also a person who was dedicated to seeking the Tao, and when she had the opportunity, of course, she worked hard to make progress and won the attention of the teacher and the sect.
If everything goes according to this, it will be a perfect life for her.
More than a year ago, she suddenly received a letter from home, saying that she was asking her to go back and meet a fiancé who was married when her grandfather was alive.
Xiao Ruoyi was suddenly shocked, she didn't expect that she had a fiancé who was married to her fingertips.
But she is dedicated to seeking Taoism and cultivation, where does she have the heart to meet her fiancé.
If you don't even want to see each other, it's even less likely that you'll marry your fiancé who has never met in this way.
So, she made an excuse, refused to go home, and asked people to bring back some pills for cultivation, as compensation, and asked her father to help put the marriage off.
As a genius disciple of Xuanze Sect, of course, no one dared to force her.
Who knows, this time it is causing trouble.
Her fiancé, who was married to Lin Tianfan, was furious, saying that he simply looked down on the Lin family, looked down on him, thought he was a waste, and put down a cruel sentence,
"Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, your Xiao family, you will regret it, in the near future, I will let you kneel and beg me to ......"
Then Lin Tianfan slammed the door and left.
After Xiao Ruoyi received the news, she felt that this guy was inexplicable and nervous.
I haven't even seen him, so why do I look down on him and think he's a waste?
She has made it very clear that she just wants to practice wholeheartedly, and she will not think about marriage at all.
Besides, even if he wants to get married, he will wait for his cultivation to be successful, and then look for a Taoist partner who is in love.
It was simply impossible for her to marry a man she had never met.
She didn't pay too much attention to it and continued to indulge in cultivation.
Who knows, after only a year, Lin Tianfan, the waste of the Lin family who couldn't practice at all, didn't know where to get a big opportunity, from a first-order mortal, he had a foundation building and cultivation in a short time.
And the Lin family, which was originally just a small family, rose rapidly, and immediately launched revenge on the Xiao family.
If it was just like this, Xiao Ruoyi and the Xiao family would not be afraid, after all, Xiao Ruoyi was a disciple of the Xuanze Sect.
But that Lin Tianfan not only suddenly increased his cultivation greatly, but also made friends with some masters above the Jindan and even the Yuan Infant Realm.
You must know that the Xuanze Sect, who is the backstage of the Xiao family, is the highest great elder, and he is only a monk in the late Yuan Infant period.
This made Xuan Zezong quite jealous of Lin Tianfan.
And the Xiao family was immediately suppressed and suffered heavy losses, and many clansmen died.
The Xiao family bowed their heads and surrendered, hoping to resolve the conflict between the two families.
But Lin Tianfan said that if the Xiao family wanted to be safe, they asked the head of the Xiao family who humiliated him to kneel down and beg for mercy, and married Xiao Ruoyi to him as a concubine.
Such unreasonable conditions are simply unacceptable.
Not to mention that the Xiao family politely sent him out at the beginning, and they didn't humiliate him at all, just say that if Xiao Ruoyi is a concubine, the Xiao family will not agree.
Xiao Ruoyi is the proud daughter of the Xiao family, how could she be a concubine.
So the conflict between the two sides escalated, but Lin Tianfan was too demonic and his combat power was extraordinary, and he defeated Master Xiao Ruoyi, who helped the Xiao family to build the foundation, in the early stage of foundation building.
Now the Xiao family is completely out of line, and after Xuan Zezong weighs the pros and cons, he is not ready to stand up for Xiao Ruoyi again.
And because of this incident, Xiao Ruoyi's status in the sect plummeted, and she changed from the object of everyone's pursuit to a trouble that could not be hidden.
Just when the Xiao family and Xiao Ruoyi felt powerless.
A man appeared and said that he could help the Xiao family and Xiao Ruoyi.
This man named Gu Changyun is said to be a true disciple of a certain sect in Zhongzhou, with a noble identity and strong strength.
After Gu Changyun appeared, it did make Lin Tianfan have scruples.
However, of course, this Gu Changyun will not help the Xiao family in vain, and at the same time, he also put forward a condition, that is, let Xiao Ruoyi go back to Zhongzhou with him and make him a concubine.
After Xiao Ruoyi heard this condition, she was filled with grief and indignation, and said in her heart why these guys wanted her to be a concubine so much.
How did she know that it was because some people saw that she had a certain physique that was rare in a thousand years.
The concubine room, whether in the secular world or the cultivation world, is an existence with a very low status, which is almost equivalent to someone's personal belongings.
Xiao Ruoyi didn't want to be someone's personal belongings, so she had to fight with all her might.
It's a pity that she works hard to cultivate, but she only has the cultivation of the sixth layer of Qi cultivation, and she is still far from building a foundation.
If you want to fight against Lin Tianfan, who can defeat the Great Perfection of Foundation Building in the early stage of foundation building, it is like a fool's dream.
Xiao Ruoyi, who was almost desperate, occasionally heard a piece of news, saying that there would be an ancient relic in the Zhaoguo Kingdom of the Western Regions of the Southern Continent.
And in this ruin, there are not only ancient immortal inheritances, but also countless treasures.
So she rushed over without hesitation, hoping to get the immortal inheritance and treasures to fight against Lin Tianfan and Gu Changyun, who coveted her.
She hasn't seen the ruins of the ancient immortals now, and she doesn't know if she can get her hands on them, but the great opportunity in this tea shop is really in front of her.
"I want to be in control of my own destiny, I don't want to be anyone's private property......"
Xiao Ruoyi gritted her teeth and asked respectfully, "Senior, the little girl listened to the legend of the Four Divine Beasts said by her predecessor before, and she was very inspired, I wonder if I can ask a few questions?"
Yun Qianyu was a little amused, and said in her heart, didn't you fall asleep just now, so she said, "Did you hear the story I told earlier?"
Xiao Ruoyi said seriously, "Senior, although the little girl has not comprehended too many profound meanings, she thinks that she still remembers most of them. ”
Yun Qianyu was stunned for a moment, "Remember most of them?"
Xiao Ruoyi said secretly, "Senior, are you testing me?" ”
She respectfully recited the legends she had heard and remembered before, almost word for word.
The strength of the monk's soul is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and of course his memory is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Yun Qianyu was stunned, and she couldn't imagine that people really remembered almost everything.
He smiled, "It seems that you really listened carefully, yes, yes, what did you want to ask before?"
