Chapter 287: Sacrifice
"Second child, although Qing'er is your granddaughter, but after all, her surname is Wu and not Xiao, and when she grows up in the future, she will marry someone else as her wife, do you think it is better to use these magic crystals on Qing'er's body? Or is it better to use them on Yan Jun and Yan Dong?" Xiao Youming heard Xiao Youbin's inquiry, a meaningful smile appeared on his face, and he said unhurriedly.
"Big brother, you're right, the water spilled by the married daughter, not to mention Qing'er's surname is Wu, even if her surname is Xiao, she is destined to become someone else's wife in the future, not to mention that our family has very few magic crystals, even if there are a lot, we can't help others cultivate daughters-in-law. Xiao Youbin heard Xiao Youming's inquiry, a wise smile appeared on his face, and he replied with a smile.
"Haha!haha!" Xiao Youming couldn't help laughing when he heard Xiao Youbin's answer, and said to Xiao Youbin: "Youbin! This matter has been hidden for a while, but it can't be hidden for a lifetime, Ziruo will look at you when the time comes." โ
After Xiao Ziruo left the council hall, she walked towards the backyard, but when she didn't reach the backyard, she suddenly remembered some gifts that the Wu family asked her to bring back, forgot to hand them over to the family, and subconsciously turned around and walked back to the council hall, but when she walked to the back door of the council hall, the conversation in the council hall reached her ears word for word, making her whole person stunned at once.
Xiao Ziruo knows very well that the elders of the family are very feudal in their thinking, and they have always been patriarchal, like their sisters, in the eyes of the family elders, they are just tools for family marriage and helping the family expand its strength, but she never imagined that her father would be like this, and even helped the family elders calculate her together.
In Xiao Ziruo's mind, her father is an amiable elder who loves her very much. For this reason, she admired her father very much, and even when her father asked her to marry away from home by marriage, she did not complain, until today, when she overheard her father's words, her father's image in her mind collapsed in an instant.
Xiao Ziruo couldn't have imagined it. In the minds of her father and these elders, she was just a tool that could be used to seek benefits for the family, so she couldn't help but laugh at herself in her heart: "The water spilled by the married daughter, this sentence is really good! In this case, I, Xiao Ziruo, will never have anything to do with the Xiao family from now on, and you want to find Wu Gongzi through me, it's just a fool's dream." โ
Wu Hanqi didn't know that the tens of thousands of years of Tianqian Continent also had a sect called the Heaven-Swallowing Gate, and he didn't know that this disciple of the Heaven-Swallowing Sect was also a fellow practitioner of the Five Elements. Because when he rescued Xiao Ziruo's mother and daughter, he mentioned that he accidentally mentioned his own sect, which made the high-level of the Xiao family mistakenly think that he was the disciple of the Heaven Swallowing Sect who was destroyed by various factions tens of thousands of years ago.
When the high-level officials of the Xiao family planned to take revenge on Wu Hanqi, Wu Hanqi planned to leave Luoyang City and go to various places in the Tianqian Continent to take a look, but considering that he had been teleported here for a few days, in order to prevent the women in the family from worrying about his safety. He bought a house in a remote part of Luoyang City and set up a small teleportation array in the quietly built basement. He took the Black Eagle and the Green Wolf and set off to return to the Xuantian Continent.
And just when Wu Hanqi and his entourage left the Yanmen Pass Fortress and headed towards the barren plain, Xiao Youbin and Xiao Ziruo, father and daughter, entered Luoyang City from the other side of Luoyang City.
Ever since Chen Yanran and the others learned that Wu Hanqi had opened the teleportation array on the mountain behind the Heaven Swallowing Gate and went to explore the other end of the teleportation array, they had begun to worry about Wu Hanqi's safety, especially when they saw that the teleportation array had been in contact for several days without responding. began to have the idea of going to the other end of the teleportation array to take a look, but because of the death order given by Wu Hanqi before leaving, the Black Tiger and the Green Snake could only bite the bullet and forcibly stopped Wu Hanqi's women.
As a result, when Wu Hanqi's woman was dissatisfied with the obstruction of the Black Tiger and the Green Snake, Wu Hanqi returned to the Xuantian Continent in time. The two of them, Black Tiger and Green Snake, who were under pressure, finally sighed in vain.
Wu Hanqi's return made Chen Yanran's high hearts finally relaxed, but when everyone learned that the other end of the teleportation array was actually a place called Tianqian Continent, they were surprised by the news that Wu Hanqi brought back, they couldn't have imagined that in addition to the Divine Forsaken Continent and the Xuantian Continent, there were other continents.
However, before everyone had time to digest the news, the content that Wu Hanqi introduced next made everyone feel even more shocked, they couldn't have imagined that the Spirit Emperor in the Tianqian Continent was only a medium cultivator, and they didn't expect that there were still legendary demons in the Tianqian Continent.
Seeing the eight magic crystals in Wu Hanqi's hands, and hearing Wu Hanqi's introduction to the process of saving Xiao Ziruo, everyone's faces once again showed a look of horror, they never thought that the demon clan would be so powerful, dozens of Spirit Emperor and Spirit King stage monks could not resist the attack of the two demon clans, but when they learned the effect of the magic crystal, Wu Hanqi's Five Elements initiates were the nemesis of those demons, and they were all excited about it.
From the time Wu Hanqi determined that his Five Elements spiritual power was the nemesis of the Demon Clan, he had more confidence in strengthening the Heaven Devouring Gate, and regarded the Tianqian Continent as a place to obtain magic crystals in the future and let the disciples in the sect test them, but this was just a plan in his heart, before this opportunity began to be implemented, he must hunt enough magic crystals to improve the spiritual roots of the elite disciples in the sect.
After staying at home for three days, Wu Hanqi took the Black Eagle and they came to the Tianqian Continent through the teleportation array again, when Wu Hanqi and they came to the restaurant where they had dinner a few days ago, the owner of the restaurant saw Wu Hanqi as the leader, and greeted him from the counter with a letter in his hand, and said enthusiastically: "Guest officer! The lady who came to our restaurant with you last time came to look for you almost every day a few days ago, and she saw that you had not come to the restaurant to eat in the past few days, thinking that you had gone to another place, so she left you a letter and asked her to be sure to pass it on to you when she sees you next. โ
When Wu Hanqi heard the shopkeeper mention the lady who had dinner with him, he immediately thought of Xiao Ziruo whom he had saved, and vaguely guessed that Xiao Ziruo went to Luoyang City to find him, and I am afraid that he came for the fact that he could kill the demon clan, but Xiao Ziruo did not wait for him in Luoyang City, but left him a letter, which made him a little confused about what kind of medicine was sold in Xiao Ziruo's gourd?
With full of doubts, Wu Hanqi opened the letter left by Xiao Ziruo, and the content of the letter made Wu Hanqi feel shocked, he could never have imagined that tens of thousands of years ago in the Tianqian Continent there was also a sect called the Swallowing Heaven Gate, which once led the monks of the Tianqian Continent to drive the demon race from the Mayan Plain to the Barren Plain, and was later unloaded and killed by various factions, united to exterminate, and the high-level of the Xiao family regarded him as a disciple of the Swallowing Heaven Gate because he could easily hunt the demon clan, trying to secretly control him and obtain the method of the Five Elements Initiateใ
After reading the letter in his hand, thinking of the teleportation array in the valley, he didn't know why Wu Hanqi faintly felt that the Heaven Swallowing Gate that was destroyed by the Tianqian Continent had some connection with the Heaven Swallowing Decision he cultivated, and it was very likely that the Heaven Swallowing Decision he cultivated was transmitted from the Tianqian Continent to the Xuantian Continent.
However, whether the truth is as he thinks still needs to be verified, but the Xiao family wants to calculate his affairs, but it reminds him that the demon clan's magic crystal has a price in the Tianqian Continent, and the fact that he can hunt the demon clan must not be easily let outsiders know, otherwise it will cause him huge trouble, after all, his strength here cannot be as proud as in the Xuantian Continent!
Thinking of this, Wu Hanqi handed the letter in his hand to the Black Eagle on the side, and said to the Black Eagle with a solemn face: "Black Eagle! This is the letter that Xiao Ziruo asked the restaurant owner to hand over, you can also take a look at the content of this letter!"
When Wu Hanqi read the letter, a shocked look first appeared on his face, and then became extremely dignified, which made Black Eagle very curious about the content of the letter, but as Wu Hanqi's subordinate, Wu Hanqi did not tell him the content of the letter, so he naturally couldn't ask, until now when Wu Hanqi handed him the letter, Black Eagle picked up the letter and read it seriously.
Soon Black Eagle's face appeared with an expression similar to Wu Hanqi's, and when he put down the letter, he whispered to Wu Hanqi with a solemn face: "Childe! I didn't expect that there was a Heaven Swallowing Gate in the Tianqian Continent tens of thousands of years ago, and the disciples in its sect could easily kill the Demon Clan, just like you, Childe, this is simply too coincidental, right? I wonder why the sects of the Tianqian Continent were able to put aside their prejudices against each other and resist the invasion of the Demon Race together when they encountered the invasion of the Demon Race, it turned out to be because of this thing?"
"I remember that Xiao Ziruo once said that her father has just advanced to the Spirit Venerable stage, and with our current strength, I am afraid that we will not be able to compete with the other party, as for Xiao Ziruo's appointment to meet you, my subordinates think that it is better for you not to meet him, after all, she is the eldest lady of the Xiao family, who knows if she helped the Xiao family deceive us?"
Wu Hanqi was very curious about Xiao Ziruo's purpose of asking him to meet, but he believed that Xiao Ziruo would definitely not be unfavorable to him, otherwise Xiao Ziruo would not have to tell him about the Xiao family's conspiracy, so when Wu Hanqi heard Black Eagle's suggestion, he subconsciously shook his head and said, "No!" If it weren't for this letter, we wouldn't know that the Xiao family sent someone to Luoyang City to find me, if the Xiao family really wanted to calculate me, there would be no need to do anything more, as for why Xiao Ziruo told me the news, I'm afraid we can only know after seeing him in person. โ
Black Eagle heard Wu Hanqi's answer and felt that Wu Hanqi's analysis was very reasonable, but Xiao Ziruo was the eldest lady of the Xiao family, even if Wu Hanqi had a life-saving grace for Xiao Ziruo, it would not let Xiao Ziruo betray the Xiao family, for Wu Hanqi's safety, Black Eagle proposed to Wu Hanqi: "Son, or your subordinates will meet Xiao Ziruo instead of you to see what kind of medicine Xiao Ziruo sells in this gourd?"
