From the fake emperor to the concubine

Zheng Yi said modestly.

Seeing this, Qin Liang became even more cautious about looking down on Zheng Yi.

The two of them started from the simplest and gradually went into detail, describing each other's experiences during this period.

When Qin Liang learned that Zheng Yi not only had connections with the Tianxuan Sword Sect, but also had made the acquaintance of two Crystal Realm powerhouses, his attitude towards Zheng Yi became completely equal, and he no longer dared to neglect him in the slightest.

"As expected of you, Fellow Daoist Zheng Yi. You have such good fortune in such a short time. The younger generation is pushing the older generation forward. We, the older generation, are far from being able to compare to you."

“Senior, you have now broken through to the Crystal Realm in one fell swoop. This is a great opportunity. I wonder how many people envy you.

Moreover, with your aptitude, you will surely be able to go a step further in the near future, and it is not impossible for you to become the chief elder of the Huagu lineage. I, a junior, am far behind you. "

Zheng Yi shook his head slightly.

When the two talked privately, the atmosphere was very harmonious and friendly.

During this conversation, time passed quietly.

On the Wang family's side, everyone had already gathered together.

When facing Qin Liang.

They didn't dare to hide anything, but now there was no one around, and there was the Wang family's formation blocking them, and Zheng Yi was in front to temporarily cover them, so everyone couldn't help but have some small thoughts.

“What is the situation?
Do we really want to give half of our family's resources to that guy?

Isn't this aiding and abetting evil? "

"Ancestor, if you don't have half of these cultivation resources, when will you be able to break through to the Crystal Realm and avenge our Wang family?"

"Ancestor, we must not lose this time!"

The Wang family ancestor looked expressionlessly at the remaining members of the family who were at the foundation-building stage, and said calmly, "So what do you want to do?
If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Zheng Yi returning to the Wang family, our Wang family would probably have ceased to exist today. How could we have the luck we have now?

Or.

You all want the Wang family to be completely exterminated today?"

The sharp words of the Wang family ancestor made everyone unable to refute for a moment, and they all shut their mouths.

"Hurry and do it. If Qin Liang finds any flaws again, even Fellow Daoist Zheng Yi may not be able to protect us.

We are running out of time.”

Wang Shan laid out his decision in full. After hearing it, the elders had no reason to refute and could only nod their heads and then rush to deal with related matters.

Time passed quickly, and half an hour later, half of the Wang family's cultivation resources were handed over to Qin Liang.

Qin Liang weighed the storage bag and probed into it with his spiritual sense. After a moment, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He looked at his old rival Wang Shan again, and the expression on his face eased a lot: "Friend Wang, this is not my fault. If you want to blame someone, blame your Wang family for having a traitor and colluding with me."

Qin Liang has already obtained the resources.

He understood that the Wang family would not be able to pose a threat to him for a long time, and it was even less likely that Wang Shan would be able to break through to the Crystallization Realm.

That being the case.

He might as well give the other party a little information.

"What do you mean?"

Wang Shan remained tough, narrowed his eyes and looked directly at Qin Liang.

“Someone from your Wang family has long been planning to cooperate with me, a demonic monster, through my disciples.

How come, your brain has become stupid during your retreat, and you don’t even know such a small thing?

Ha ha ha ha……"

Qin Liang laughed mercilessly.

As for who that person was, Qin Liang deliberately did not say it.

"Disciples, let's go.

I hope to see you again next time, fellow Taoist Zheng Yi."

After saying the last sentence, Qin Liang soared into the air and returned with a full load.

For Qin Liang, the cooperation with the second elder of the Wang family and his granddaughter Wang Miaomiao is no longer of much value.

A mere descendant of the Second Elder, a Qi-refining junior who has not even entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, can only bring limited benefits to a Crystallized Master like him.

Rather than that, it would be better to be like today.

It is enough for him to get tangible resources that will be more helpful to his practice.

As Qin Liang left, in the hall of Zheng Yi's mansion, the ancestor of the Wang family stared straight at the people in front of him with eyes as sharp as a knife.

Wang Shan did not doubt Zheng Yi, because the Wang family was no longer important to Zheng Yi, and even if Zheng Yi took action against the Wang family, he would not get any benefits.

Then, this traitor must be a member of the Wang family.

But who is it?
The ancestor looked at everyone, and the great elder shook his head to make his position clear.

Master Zhang smiled softly and said: "If I want to betray the Wang family, I can just choose Zheng Yi. What's more, the name of the Zheng family is well-known in the Wang family now.

There's no need for me to go around in such a big circle.

Besides, I am not as respected as the Great Elder in the Wang Family."

After some thought, the members of the Foundation Establishment Realm were gradually cleared of suspicion one by one, and the remaining person with the greatest suspicion seemed to have been revealed.

The Wang family ancestor sighed and looked at the second elder: "Second elder, how do you plan to explain what happened today?"

"Ancestor, it's not me. I have never done this!"

The second elder said solemnly and sincerely, "Please understand, Old Ancestor, I have only been in the family dungeon recovering my cultivation for a few days, how can I have the ability to contact the Crystal Realm manager of Hongchenfang in advance?
I'm afraid I don't even know that he has broken through to the Crystallization Realm, Ancestor."

The second elder spoke slowly, and what he said seemed to make sense.

However, today, many things in the Wang family can no longer be kept secret.

"What about your granddaughter?"

The clan leader Wang Xingyin, who had been taciturn all the time, stood up, looked sharp, and asked pointed questions.

“My granddaughter is just a young Qi Refiner, and her Dantian cultivation is ruined.

How could she have the ability to collude with a Crystal Realm expert?
Could it be that the Crystal Realm expert would care about a little girl like her?"

The second elder retorted.

This statement seemed to make sense at first, but was quickly refuted by clan leader Wang Xingyin: “She may not be able to contact the Crystal Realm expert, but if she only contacts the two disciples of Senior Qin Liang.

Isn't this possible?
Second Elder, at this point, do you still intend to continue hiding this?"

All the clan members in the Foundation Establishment stage cast suspicious eyes on the Second Elder.

The second elder smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Since the family doesn't trust me so much, why did they trust me before?
That’s all.

Rather than this, I might as well just go back to my second elder's dungeon. We all lack trust in each other, and there is no need to meet again."

After the second elder finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

But just as he was about to step out of the door, the Wang family ancestor spoke again: "Come here, bring Wang Miaomiao up."

The Wang family ancestor gave an order.

The disciples from the family's martial arts hall immediately stepped forward, grabbed Wang Miaomiao with both hands, and brought her into the hall.

Wang Miaomiao's face was pale at this time, and it was obvious that she had been tortured before.

If this were not the case, it would be difficult to know the truth of the matter.

"Your granddaughter has already been found, Second Elder, are you still going to deny it now?

There is no point in doing this.”

The Wang family ancestor said slowly.

The second elder took a look at the granddaughter in front of him and saw that the tendons of her hands and limbs had been cut, and there was still a faint trace of blood around them.

There were many shackles on his body. Seeing this scene, the second elder sighed, closed his eyes, and said softly: "In this case, this matter is my fault, and I am willing to bear all the guilt.

I don’t intend to deny it anymore.”

"it is good."

When the Wang family ancestor saw this scene, he did not show any relief on his face. Instead, he smiled bitterly and said, "This matter is not unrelated to you, but it has more to do with your granddaughter.

Since I learned the truth from Wang Miaomiao.

I can't just listen to your one-sided story.

But I never expected that you would do this, Second Elder, to save your granddaughter?"

“The ancestor misunderstood, this is all my fault.

It was at my instruction that Miaomiao contacted the evil people in Hongchenfang.

Otherwise, with Miaomiao's identity as a Qi Refining Master, how could she dare to make such a bold move, and how could she collude with internal and external forces to lure Senior Qin Liang to attack?
Old Ancestor, can't you really think of this?"

The second elder used provocation to deliberately provoke the old ancestor in front of him, "Or have all the Wang family members become so ignorant and naive now?"

The second elder raised his head and taunted the people in front of him with a barrage of words.

However, for his words.

Those who already knew the truth did not think there was anything wrong with it, but instead felt a bit of empathy.

"This matter ends here. How the Second Elder handles the matter is the Wang family's decision and has nothing to do with me."

Zheng Yi ordered them to leave.

Obviously, he no longer wanted to get involved in this matter. He had done his best to help the Wang family to this point, and he didn't want to get involved in this boring dispute anymore.

As soon as Zheng Yi finished speaking, the ancestor of the Wang family looked at him, understood his thoughts, sighed again, and then led the people around him away.

After everyone left.

Only then did Wang Manman have the opportunity to come in front of Zheng Yi.

"Husband."

She called softly.

"Manman, I think we can't stay here any longer. This trip to the Wang family has to end here."

Zheng Yi said apologetically.

"It's alright, husband."

Wang Manman responded considerately.

Zhang Qingmiao also came over and smiled softly, "Husband, today you can help the Wang family to this point for the sake of us sisters, we sisters are already very happy.

Anyway, there is no point in staying in the Wang family for a while longer."

With the comfort of many ladies.

Zheng Yi smiled slightly, nodded, and felt better.

As the night deepened, the crowd gradually dispersed.

Zheng Yi rested alone that night.

Wang Manman returned to the Great Elder's residence, while Zhang Qingmiao returned to Master Zhang's home.

They spent another night together with their families.

……

The next day, it was just dawn.

They all left.

Zheng Yi and others also quickly left the Wang family.

Today, the Wang family has become a place of trouble. Although Qin Liang is unlikely to come back again, Zheng Yi doesn't want to waste any more time here.

After reflecting on the past.

There was really no need for the Wang family to stay any longer.

In the ancestral hall, the ancestor of the Wang family looked at the figures of Zheng Yi and his companions as they left, and sighed, "From now on, the relationship between Daoist Fellow Zheng Yi and our Wang family will be...

I'm afraid this is the last bit of affection we have left."

The Great Elder and the Clan Leader remained silent about this. They had already discussed in their respective residences last night that this matter must not have a negative impact on the future of the Wang Family.

If one day the Wang family really can’t hold on.

They still have a way out and can live a stable life in the cultivation world, which is crucial.

The Wang family’s affairs came to a temporary end, and Zheng Yi and others returned to the Dragon Blood Mine.

Half a day passed.

They arrived at their destination.

Zheng Yi settled his family members in the attic of the corridor and let them live there one by one.

Afterwards, Zheng Yi came to the back mountain.

He used his divine sense to sense the Holy Spirit Grass King, the puppets here, and the crystal formation that was constructed, but he did not find Bi Yao.

Zheng Yi frowned.

The next moment, the photo stone in front of him instantly broke into pieces, as if Bi Yao had already predicted his arrival and recorded a message in advance: "Senior, this back mountain is really too boring.

The younger generation has done a lot and will definitely ensure that the back mountain is safe.

Please forgive me, senior. I beg you."

After hearing what Bi Yao said, Zheng Yi looked helpless.

"She does have some truth in what she said."

He was talking to himself.

He manipulated the formations around him, then entered the formation and came in front of the Holy Spirit Grass King.

Zheng Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the surrounding chaos and impurities had almost been cleared away.

……

The scene changes and we arrive at Tiannan Market.

At this time, Tiannan Market has recovered to 70% to 80% of its original prosperity, with people coming and going, and bustling street scenes everywhere.

The cries of hawkers, the sounds of sales in shops and the transactions at stalls everywhere make it easy to forget what happened.

Deep inside the sixteenth floor, Bi Yao, a girl from the Hehuan Sect, returned here after leaving Tiannan Market.

In her bedroom where she lived alone, Bi Yao sighed sadly.

He twisted a peach petal in his hand and gently tore it off piece by piece, muttering to himself: "Senior will blame me when he comes back, but he won't blame me when he comes back. Senior shouldn't be that kind of person..."

As the words fell, the worry between Bi Yao's brows became more and more profound, and her thoughts became more and more complicated, making the madam and others on the 16th floor dare not offend her in the slightest and were terrified.

Outside the solitary bedroom, the madam, the pimp on the sixteenth floor, the other sisters, and the disciples of the Hehuan Sect all bowed their heads and talked in low voices.

"Madam, what happened to the Saint Lady?
Have we not been considerate enough in taking care of him during this period?"

"Yes, with Lady Saint like this, we are no longer as at ease soliciting business in the building as before. After all, if Lady Saint blames us, we can't afford it."

"okay!"

The madam rolled her eyes at them in displeasure and said, "Look at all of you. You are almost doomed to failure. You can make trouble out of nothing."

The madam put her hands on her hips and angrily drove away everyone around her. Then she carefully opened the door, walked in, and said to Bi Yao, "Lady Saint, have I done anything inconsiderate during this period?
Please make it clear, Lady Saint, that I have absolutely no complaints.

I must correct it.”

Bi Yao had no interest in what the people below said, and she didn't want to pay attention to it. She just said casually: "Who gave you the courage to let you in?" (End of this chapter)
