"Your mother-in-law's home?"
"Yes, the Luo Family." Xiao Zhiqing's eyes were filled with hatred.
Yang Chen suddenly remembered that back in Los Angeles, she thought he was sent by the Luo Family to capture her. In that case, Xiao Zhiqing didn't lie.
As Xiao Zhiqing recounted her story, Lin Ruoxi's heart ached a little. She subconsciously took a tissue and tweaked her eyes.
Xiao Zhiqing's arranged marriage was with Luo clan head, the son of Luo Qianqiu, Luo Hang.
Originally, with Xiao Zhiqing's status, she was not worthy to be with Luo Hang. After all, Luo Hang had reached the late stage of Soul Formation at such a young age. He was certain that in the future, he would become a Tribulation Stage expert, the core of the family, and even a strong competitor for the clan's Patriarch.
However, the reason why the Luo family put so much effort into marrying Xiao Zhiqing was not to actually make a family for Luo Hang.
Xiao Zhiqing was a blessed "divine testing tool", so who wouldn't be jealous when they saw it?
Actually, the Luo Family only wanted the Xiao Family to share Xiao Zhiqing, so that they could refine and test the pill to their heart's content.
Although she said that she was giving Xiao Zhiqing the title of a daughter-in-law and gave her many treasures as a betrothal gift, she was actually only planning to do it openly.
After all, there were more than a few Underworld Family in that place. The entire cultivation world would be watching, so he couldn't lose too much face.
Besides, Xiao Zhiqing's looks were quite outstanding, and Luo Hang also liked her. Even though he knew that he couldn't have children after marrying Xiao Zhiqing, he could still use her as a plaything. At worst, he could marry a female cultivator in the future.
It just so happened that there were people in the Xiao family who were willing to do this.
Xiao Zhiqing had originally lost all hope. Her fate could not even be compared to that of a servant girl. She had long given up any thoughts of surviving.
However, on the eve of the wedding, Xiao Zhiqing, the only person in the Xiao family who had secretly helped her since she was young, finally made up her mind to help her once.
That person was Xiao Zhiqing's wet nurse from when she was young.
Because Xiao Zhiqing's mother was said to have died young, the wet nurse was the only person who brought her up.
However, the wet nurse was only at the early stage of Soul Formation. As she was a relative of her family, she didn't have much status and could only watch Xiao Zhiqing suffer.
Seeing that Xiao Zhiqing wanted to court death, the wet nurse steeled her heart, found an opportunity, and sent Xiao Zhiqing out of the formation, brought her to a nearby Sichuan Province, and gave Xiao Zhiqing some money. Then, she returned to help lead some of the cultivators away so that she could have time to escape.
Although the Underworld Family was inside the big array, it was not completely out of touch with reality. With some identity documents that the wet nurse had helped to prepare, and Xiao Zhiqing had relied on her own exploration and some knowledge from her childhood to successfully escape.
As for going to the United States, that was also for the sake of security.
Due to her Nine Yin Meridians, Xiao Zhiqing was unable to cultivate, so she could only learn some common knowledge from ordinary people, such as foreign languages and computers. She had also taught herself quite a bit, and she had managed to figure out the hacking techniques by herself.
As if the heavens were making a joke, Xiao Zhiqing learned everything very quickly, other than cultivation.
Even because of her talent, she became a female swindler in Los Angeles. She conquered the big men and was willing to give them a hand.
"You already know more or less about what happened afterwards." Xiao Zhiqing replied with guilt, "I know I've brought you a lot of trouble, but the only ones I can seek help from now are you guys …"
Xiao Zhiqing looked eagerly at Yang Chen, "Other than you, no one else can save me."
Yang Chen touched his forehead and exhaled. He thought for a while: "You're making things difficult for me, after all I'm not related to you in any way, so I'm mixed up in your conflicts over Underworld Family. What if they become enemies with me?"
Xiao Zhiqing's face darkened as she said gloomily, "I know that's a selfish way of thinking, but I just can't accept it. I'm still worried about my wet nurse. I don't know how she is and if they will kill her."
As she spoke, the woman's eyes became moist again.
Lin Ruoxi struggled to turn her head, "Hubby, just help her. That group of people are too despicable. At most, you can try your best to protect her. Who knows, maybe none of those people are your match?
After all, if Underworld Family were to really disappear, they would also send very powerful people to cause chaos in the world. Maybe if they found out that they wouldn't be able to easily bring her back, they would just give up? "
Yang Chen smiled bitterly. He reached out his hand to touch Lin Ruoxi's face, causing her to pout against him.
Yang Chen sighed, "How can it be so easy? Didn't you hear what she just said? It's better for us to have our own clan's Tribulation Stage. We still have treasures and pills, and I'm a bachelor, and I still have to protect you lot of women. I'll … "
Halfway through his words, a bright light flashed in Yang Chen's mind!
That's right, a spiritual pill!
Yang Chen hurriedly turned his head and asked: "Xiao Zhiqing, you said that inside the Underworld Family, there are a large number of pill that can assist in cultivation, right? There are also a lot of powerful cultivation techniques and cultivation materials, right?"
Xiao Zhiqing slowly nodded her head, "Yes, the reason why these ancient martial arts sects can't have a large number of breakthroughs into the God Transformation Stage is because they don't have the help of pill, spirit grass, and cultivation techniques. Those are the very foundations of the Underworld Family, the gems that will not easily be leaked out. "
Yang Chen's eyes burned with greed.
"Hehe, protecting you and helping you take revenge isn't something that I'm interested in. However, in order for my beloved to quickly increase her cultivation, it's not bad to ask for some treasures to help with her cultivation." Yang Chen smiled evilly.
Xiao Zhiqing almost fainted as she spoke up to stop him, "Don't do such a foolish thing! Could it be that you want to go to the Underworld Family alone to steal the pill!? Are you crazy!?
At least a thousand cultivators in the Primordial Profound Ark wouldn't dare to fight over there for something. Do you think that the Tribulation Stage Elders of various families are so easy to deal with?! "
Lin Ruoxi also clutched at her chest, feeling that this man was extremely daring, and said worriedly, "That's right, you're not allowed to go! Do you think this is fun!? If you make a move, doesn't that mean you're dragging out your entire body!? "
Yang Chen smiled innocently, waved his hand and said, "I was just joking, I don't think my life is long enough."
Of course, having an idea was a different matter.
Indeed, if he were to go now, he wouldn't be able to take advantage of her, but what about in the future?
His own《 Memory Deriving Scripture》 was constantly improving. If there was a day, such as when he could spend the second time on the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Tribulations, maybe he could try it?
At least, this was a shortcut that allowed the women's cultivation to soar.
It was a pity that he didn't have a reference person and didn't know the other party's true strength. If only someone could come out and fight him, he would have a good grasp of the situation.
Thinking of this, Yang Chen recited the few magical equipment that he had just seized.
Yang Chen waved his hands in the air and took out the Golden Blade of the Blood Dragon Dragon, the Golden Demon Suppressing Hammer, the Platinum Bracelet, and the amulet made of bronze and placed it on the ground.
Xiao Zhiqing was clearly flabbergasted when she saw the four items. "How did you get these items?!"
Yang Chen did not hide anything and told Ye Zichen about how Sloppy Taoist kidnapped Lin Ruoxi and then got slaughtered by Ye Zichen once again.
Xiao Zhiqing realized that the two of them had just returned from killing an expert of the late stage of Soul Formation with ashen faces.
"You're quite amazing. You should know that magic treasures are divided into three grades. Low, medium, and high quality. Above that are the few immortal treasures that have been passed down since ancient times." Xiao Zhiqing pointed to the treasures and said, "That platinum bracelet is called the 'Heaven's Divine Bracelet', it is a low level defensive treasure. Below the tribulation level, it can withstand at least three attacks, although the 'Demon Subduing Golden Hammer' is a low level treasure, because of its thick and powerful, extraordinary might, the 'Blood Dragon Golden Blade' is the most powerful, and my Tribulation Stage is also afraid of being cut, it is difficult to recover, it is a middle level treasure."
Yang Chen Qi said, "Are you sure?"
Xiao Zhiqing smiled and said, "Because I can't cultivate, I study almost everyone else's cultivation time. I study the secular world's culture, and I also read all kinds of cultivation books. Therefore, I have some understanding of these miscellaneous things."
Yang Chen suddenly understood and thought that this woman was quite valuable. At least she could explain him quite a bit of puzzlement and protect him for a while.
After finding a reason to protect Xiao Zhiqing, Yang Chen said, "You still haven't told me what kind of magical equipment that copper plate is. Why did you write 'yellow' on it?"
This time, Xiao Zhiqing frowned slightly. She looked at Yang Chen with a complicated expression and said with a wry smile, "This isn't a magical equipment …"
