She thought it must be a lucky charm that could bring wealth, so she carried it with her.
As a result, her gambling luck plummeted from that point on. She used to win 70% of the time at the gambling table, but later it became 90% of the time, or even worse.
"What a piece of crap, I don't want it anymore."
Qi Honglian rushed out of the room.
She flew quickly to the edge of a cliff and then threw it heavily into the distance.
Seeing the Pixiu statue fall to the bottom of the cliff, she felt unprecedented relief.
She skipped towards her residence.
"I wonder if my gambling luck will improve after losing this unfortunate thing. I'll have to try my luck someday."
"But Senior Sister is still in the sect, so we should wait until she leaves."
Thinking of this, she returned to her room.
However, a nightmare happened.
On the chair where she had sat before, the Pixiu statue was still lying there peacefully.
"Ah!~ What the hell."
Chapter 410: Unknown Treasure
"It will take about three more times to completely cure Yunniang's cold poison problem." Zhao Kangping stroked the smooth and fragrant back of the woman in his arms.
"So soon?" Nangong Ruyun had been troubled by the cold poison for decades. She originally thought that she would never be able to cure it in her lifetime, and she might even just wait to die.
But God did not let her go, and she met Zhao Kangping.
He was like a gift from God to her, and they had been connected since he was very young.
Her cold poison requires dual cultivation with a male protagonist with a yang constitution to be cured, and he just happens to have such a constitution.
After practicing dual cultivation with it, things started to get better soon.
It was true that the cold poison in her body was extremely yin and cold, so it needed the most yang and strong power to refine it.
The yang energy in him just met the requirements, even exceeding her expectations.
Even with his strong yang energy, most women would not be able to bear it. Even she, a female cultivator in the late stage of the Void Refinement Realm, could not bear it and could only beg for mercy repeatedly in the second half.
"Yes, after three more dual cultivations, Yunniang's illness will be completely cured. No further treatment will be needed."
He couldn't bear to see her suffer from the cold, and he was happy for her as her recovery was just around the corner.
However, the woman grasped the key point in his words and frowned, "After those three times, you won't treat me anymore?"
"Ah? You're all healed, why do you still need treatment?" Zhao Kangping heard resentment in her tone.
But where does this resentment come from?
She twisted her waist, arched her body in his arms, and said coquettishly, "No, I still need Ping'er's treatment. What three times? How can three times be enough?" Her eyes were like water, full of endless affection.
Zhao Kangping's injection treatment made her deeply addicted, and she felt that she could never leave him. For him, she didn't even want to be the leader of a sect.
Zhao Kangping understood now. He smiled, hugged her and said, "Even if I help Yunniang cure the cold poison, I will still practice dual cultivation with you in the future."
"Oh, my dear Ping'er, you are really my sweetheart. Yunniang will be yours from now on, you can't neglect me." Having tasted the sweetness of love, she no longer wanted to let go.
No one could stop her from being with Ping'er, not even Mu Wanyi or her best friend Lan Ruoyu.
"Yunniang is so beautiful, I must be crazy to ignore you!" The Ice Fairy's beautiful and extraordinary face was reflected in his eyes.
Her features were picturesque, her beauty captivating the nation. Her figure was the gourd-shaped, curvaceous curves characteristic of a beautiful woman, with a curvaceous figure and a slender waist. This beauty captivated Zhao, completely captivating his heart.
If he were a king and had a concubine like her, he would probably spend his nights reveling and no longer attend court in the morning.
At this time, they both noticed someone approaching outside. Judging from the hurried look of the person, it seemed that he had something urgent to do.
The person who came was Zheng Luqing, Qi Honglian's apprentice, and also Nangong Ruyun's nephew.
The two of them suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly got up to pack up.
This was the residence they arranged for Zhao Kangping, but Nangong Ruyun had been staying there for a long time.
Zheng Luqing had actually looked for Nangong Ruyun elsewhere a long time ago, but came here when she couldn't find her.
It would be so embarrassing if she found out about what was going on between them.
Nangong Ruyun's identity is above the rules of Xianyun Sect.
The sect does indeed prohibit people from doing obscene things. The lighter punishment is fifty strokes of the cane and six months of solitary confinement. The more serious the offense is, the more severe the punishment is, the removal of one's cultivation and expulsion from the sect.
But such rules cannot control Nangong Ruyun, who has an extraordinary status.
Because she is a powerful cultivator in the late stage of the Refined Void Realm, she is the combat ceiling of the Xianyun Sect and the greatest asset of this female cultivation sect.
So even if her behavior was discovered, others could only turn a blind eye.
But if someone saw it, people might talk about it behind her back. Nangong Ruyun could subdue the entire sect, but she couldn't stop people from talking about her.
She still wanted to save some face, so naturally she didn't want her affairs to spread everywhere.
So as soon as she noticed Zheng Luqing approaching, she jumped up, used her spiritual power to remove the traces on her body, and condensed an ice-blue palace dress.
The dress was elegant yet conservative, not revealing much skin.
Although it is not a very tight style, the chest is bulging and almost bursting through the clothes.
She just moved, but her body froze.
Because it was exposed...
She forgot to refine it, and it slipped down her thigh as she stood up.
"You should hurry up and pack too." Nangong Ruyun was embarrassed and anxious, but seeing that he was still putting on his clothes slowly, she also became impatient.
Zheng Luqing outside was less than ten feet away from the door.
Nangong Ruyun rushed out the door without caring about anything else, thinking of stopping her niece first to prevent her from seeing the mess in the house.
But her walking posture was awkward, her legs were weak and she almost fell down several times.
She suddenly had an idea and controlled the pure Yin ice spiritual power in her body to simulate the weak posture after the cold poison attacked.
When Zheng Luqing came to her, she was already pale and her unsteady gait only made it more obvious that she had been ill for a long time.
"Master." Zheng Luqing bowed to her and tried to go forward to support Nangong Ruyun, but saw that the other party blocked her with her hand and rejected her kindness.
At this moment, Nangong Ruyun's lips were pale, her face was bloodless, and her breath was slightly disordered.
"Ahem, Luqing, why are you here?"
"Uh, let's talk about my business later. Uncle, what's wrong with your body? I remember that when we were in River City, weren't you almost well?"
When she was in Chuanliu City, Nangong Ruyun showed no signs of weakness. Not only was her complexion rosy, she didn't even cough once.
Why does he look so sick when he arrives at Xianyun Sect?
"It's just a last gasp of energy." Nangong Ruyun is very good at cultivating her Qi, and she can lie without blushing or getting nervous.
"Ah! But but..."
"It's nothing. I came back to take a look. After things here are over, I will go back to River City."
Although Nangong Ruyun had been the clan leader for decades, she had no attachment to this place at all. She was determined to leave.
"Well, what brings you here?"
Nangong Ruyun was a little panicked at first, but then she remembered that she was the former leader of the Xianyun Sect. After a few generations, she would be the ancestor of the Xianyun Sect.
With such status, the younger generations should be trembling in fear in front of me, but I have nothing to be afraid of.
After being reminded by Nangong Ruyun, Zheng Luqing finally remembered why she came here.
So she told her uncle that she could succeed the sect leader, and then she could ask her uncle to put pressure on other elders to make them recognize her position as the sect leader.
But there was a problem here. Nangong Ruyun said that she was only in a state of lasting glory. Doesn't that mean she doesn't have much time left to live? If so, how long can she suppress those elders?
"So you want to be the clan leader. I originally planned to let you inherit, but you are too young."
"I'm afraid those elders won't obey you."
However, it is in the best accordance with the sect's rules for Zheng Luqing to inherit the position of sect leader.
Nangong Ruyun originally wanted Qi Honglian to act as a transitional measure, but she never expected her junior sister to be so outrageous.
"But I think you are the only one who can be the sect leader now." Nangong Ruyun was just pretending to be sick, but she was not really sick.
It is indeed a good idea to let Zheng Luqing become the sect leader, but she must also stabilize the situation of Xianyun Sect.
If necessary, she would have to reveal the truth that she had actually recovered, but definitely not now.
"What about the other elders?"
"I told them this personally. I still have some influence. They dare not disrespect me."
What she meant was that she would fully support Zheng Luqing.
The two of them discussed some preliminary details on this topic.
Fortunately, Zheng Luqing did not come to catch someone cheating. She had no intention of entering the house at all. She went back after she finished what she wanted to say.
They both agreed to raise the issue of power transition in Xianyun Sect at the sect meeting tomorrow.
This replacement of the old with the new is a top priority for every sect.
The new sect leader must not only be able to win the support of the people, but also be able to lead the sect to prosperity, and at the very least, be able to protect the sect's foundation.
If we allow an irresponsible guy like Qi Honglian to serve as the sect leader again, the consequences will be unimaginable. Fortunately, it was discovered early.
As soon as Zheng Luqing left, Nangong Ruyun was about to go back to the house.
Whether she wanted to continue being affectionate or talk more with Ping'er, she couldn't be separated from him for a moment.
When she was in the City Lord's Mansion, she still cared about others, but since Xianyun Sect was her territory, she let herself go.
But just as she was about to cross the threshold, she noticed another person coming towards her.
The person who came was her junior sister Qi Honglian, and the expression on her face suddenly became tense.
Qi Honglian had caused her a lot of worry since she was young, and she was still troubled by it now.
If her master had not previously instructed her to take good care of her junior sister, she really would not have bothered to care about Qi Honglian.
"Senior Sister!~" Qi Honglian started shouting from a distance.
Nangong Ruyun tried her best to calm down, turned around and said to Qi Honglian calmly, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly."
She thought her junior sister probably still wanted to keep her position as the sect leader.
There is no room for negotiation on this matter. If someone with no image like her becomes the sect leader, the Xianyun Sect will become a laughing stock.
But Qi Honglian was not talking about this.
She said, "Sister, something big has happened."
She spoke so seriously that those who didn't know would think it was some big sect event.
Hearing this, Nangong Ruyun instantly became nervous and asked, "What happened?"
Finally she said: "I encountered a strange thing..."
Then she recounted what happened after she picked up the Pixiu statue, and also mentioned the strangeness of the statue.
Nangong Ruyun couldn't help but frown when she heard that she continued to gamble for a while after losing several consecutive bets.
"Is this the big deal you were talking about?" Nangong Ruyun clenched her fists, veins bulging on the back of her hands.
"Well, ever since I got entangled with this thing, I've been unlucky. Isn't it a big deal that I owe so many spirit stones?" She said righteously.
Hearing what her junior sister said, Nangong Ruyun was so angry that she laughed.
She thought she had always had a good temper, but her stinky junior sister was challenging her bottom line.
"If you don't go gambling yourself, where do all these troubles come from?" As she said that, she hit her junior sister on the head.
"Oh, woooo!~~" Qi Honglian covered the big bump on her head and immediately burst into tears.
"But Senior Sister, this thing is really weird. If you don't believe me, just look..."
There were two tear marks on Qi Honglian's face. She stopped crying temporarily and threw the Pixiu statue into the distance in front of Nangong Ruyun.
