Fang Qianwen was walking on the corridor, looking quite relaxed.
In recent months, she has passed this corridor at least twice a day - once when coming and once when going out.
But today should be the last day she walks through this corridor.
After passing the corridor, there is an arch.
Standing outside the arch were several guards from oriental aristocratic families.
Since the last time Qingqiu Nine-Tailed Great Sage Qingjue appeared in the Dongfang Family, the Dongfang Family is still in a state of turmoil - of course, uninformed people thought it was the Great Sage Qingjue who caused a scene in the Dongfang Family.
However, those who really know the inside story, such as Fang Qianwen, know that this is purely because their master Huang Zi came to visit the Dongfang family.
But today, there were obviously twice as many Dongfang family guards guarding the area around the arch as usual.
"I always feel that something is not right, Senior Sister." Qingyu followed Fang Qianwen and muttered in a low voice.
Although Kong Ling on the side did not speak, her expression also looked quite wary.
Because the strength of these Dongfang family guards has obviously improved.
At the beginning, the guards that Fang Qianwen saw were just natal monks who were good at combined attack skills. They might be able to deal with the strong men in the soul condensation realm, but in fact it was impossible to look down on them. But today, these dozen guards
, but they are all at the Soul Condensing Realm, and the leader is even above the Earthly Immortal Realm.
"Don't be afraid, these people are here to prevent us from getting into trouble." Fang Qianwen looked calm.
Qingyu and Kongling were slightly distracted for a moment when they heard this.
Since this morning, they felt that Fang Qianwen seemed a little different, but it was only then that they finally discovered that their senior sister's expression was so calm, so calm that she could not see any joy, anger, sorrow, or joy at all, which even made the two of them
They all felt a little palpitated.
Qingyu seemed to want to say something more, but after opening her mouth, nothing came out.
Her instinct told her that now was not the time to ask questions.
The three of them passed through the layers of guard nets without any danger - Qingyu is no longer the Amon of the past. After being promoted to the natal realm, her perception ability has even far exceeded that of ordinary demon cultivators of the same realm, so she and Kong Ling
You can feel that there are even twice as many secret sentries in the entire small courtyard as there are guards from the Dongfang Family outside the arch.
The two of them couldn't figure out how so many people could be crammed into this small courtyard without being noticed: they could sense it because the secret guards of the Dongfang family had complete control over them.
There was no hostility, just a hint of aura deliberately leaked to let them know there was someone here.
Qingyu and Kongling are now convinced that these people have no harmful thoughts towards them.
"Don't worry." Fang Qianwen said, but although she said relaxing words, her calm tone always made the two of them subconsciously feel that something big was about to happen, and both of them seemed to be about to do so.
Be a witness to history.
Arriving at the door of the house, a maid opened the door and welcomed Fang Qianwen and others into the house.
"You guys go out first." This time, Fang Qianwen was not like the previous medical treatments where she would let these maids stay to help. Instead, she drove away all the maids in the room with an attitude that was almost tough.
Several maids looked at each other, and finally, under the leadership of the female officer, everyone left the room one by one.
"What's wrong?" A young man sitting in the room turned his head and looked at Fang Qianwen and others with a smile, "Miss Fang, you seem to be in a bad mood."
"Yeah." Fang Qianwen nodded.
She looked at this man with a somewhat scrutinizing look, which allowed the other person to fully feel the aggression in Fang Qianwen's eyes.
"Miss Fang..."
Fang Qianwen raised her hand to stop the other party's desire to continue talking.
The handsome young man in front of him has a pale complexion and a sickly look on his face, but in fact he is much better looking than the previous one who was covered in blood and almost skinny. Especially with his appearance
His injuries gradually healed, and various supplements continued to fill his extremely deficient and impoverished body, making the innate nobility in his body even more obvious.
This young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes is the head of the seven contemporary heroes of the Dongfang family.
Dongfang Tao.
At this time, he was interrupted by Fang Qianwen, and he did not show any anger. Instead, he closed his mouth and chuckled, with a look of helpless doting on his face. Uninformed people would subconsciously think that
This person seems to have some relationship with Fang Qianwen.
"I've almost done a lot of acting with you these days."
"What?" Dongfang Tao looked stunned for a moment, his face full of astonishment.
"Sigh." Fang Qianwen sighed, "If it were normal times, I wouldn't mind continuing to act with you. Anyway, I won't suffer. But now, my mood is not that good. Today I am here to say goodbye to you.
We will return to Taiyi Valley soon."
Dongfang Tao blinked, a little confused.
"I said I'm not in the mood to act with you, so why do you continue to pretend to be innocent here?"
"Uh..." Dongfang Tao smiled bitterly, "I really don't know what you are talking about, Miss Fang, what kind of acting... what kind of drama am I acting in."
"Okay, let me be more straightforward." Fang Qianwen nodded, "Why do you want to take the Five Elements Reversal Blood Burning Worm yourself?"
"What is that?" Dongfang Tao was stunned for a moment, "Wait a minute, Miss Fang, I don't quite understand what you mean. What do you mean I should take the Five Elements bug by myself? I don't even know that poison is there.
What’s the use?”
"I didn't say it was poison." Fang Qianwen's expression remained as calm as ever.
"Huh?" Dongfang Tao blinked, "You said this is called the Five Elements Insect, isn't that the poison? The poison uses insects as its carrier. Isn't this common sense that everyone in the Xuan world knows?... Fang
Girl, there seems to be something wrong with you today."
"What I said was, 'I didn't say it was poison, did I?'" Fang Qianwen said word for word, "Poison is not necessarily poison. There are also some poisons that are beneficial to the human body. So why do you think
, is this poisonous poison? Unless... you know what the function of this poisonous insect is."
The smile on Dongfang Tao's face suddenly froze.
Immediately afterwards, his smile slowly disappeared.
The originally gentle and jade-like appearance turned into a somewhat impatient look.
He put his left hand on the table, supporting his forehead, with a very disappointed look on his face. The nobility on his body also disappeared without a trace, and his whole person became lazy, not at all like being driven by the Dongfang family.
I have high hopes for the proud man of heaven.
"It's been discovered... Tsk." Dongfang Tao shrugged, "The plan was going very smoothly. I really don't know why you, Taiyigu, had to intervene... Hey, Fang Qianwen, do you know that you have
How annoying are you? It's so annoying that I really want to kill you."
"I know, but you don't dare."
"Don't you dare?" Dongfang Tao sneered, "Now I just need to pick up the knife and stab myself, and then scream for help. Do you believe that you will be killed on the spot by the guards outside my house?... Even if you can't be killed,
You, as long as they capture you, I have plenty of ways to kill you."
Qingyu and Kongling's expressions changed, and they both stepped forward to protect Fang Qianwen behind them.
Even Kong Ling wanted to attack Dongfang Tao first.
"Don't be nervous, he is scaring you. If you really take action because of this, then things will be really troublesome." Fang Qianwen shook her head slightly, stretched out her hand to stop Kong Ling and Qing Yu, but looked at Dongfang Tao with a look of pity.
"Do you know why I waited until today to come here to have a showdown with you?... There are more than fifty guards outside your house now, but they are not here to protect you..."
"Instead of protecting me, why should I protect you?"
"Yes." Fang Qianwen nodded, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, right? Hidden Sword Pavilion has been disbanded."
Dongfang Tao's pupils suddenly shrank.
"There is an elder in the Hidden Sword Pavilion who colluded with the demon clan and the Evil Fate Sword Sect and tried to kill my disciples in Taiyi Valley, so my master came to visit... A while ago, my master just came to visit your Dongfang family. You should
You won’t forget it, right?” Fang Qianwen’s words,
It was like a hammer hitting Dongfang Tao, who was confused, "So, you people from the Dongfang Family are afraid that something will happen to me, so you arrange so many people to protect me... As long as you dare to shout, I will do it now."
I tore my clothes off and said you molested me."
Qingyu and Kongling turned their heads to look at Qingyu blankly, with horrified expressions on their faces.
"Do you also want to tear off your clothes?" Fang Qianwen glanced at Qingyu and Kongling.
The two men instantly shook their heads like rattles and began to slowly retreat, reducing their sense of presence.
"You...you are not afraid of your reputation..."
"Don't be afraid, because your family will definitely kill you and ensure that no news of this matter will be leaked. Maybe those guards will also be in trouble with you. And my actual loss is just a piece of clothing, even
You can also get more additional compensation." Fang Qianwen looked calmer, but the words she said made Dongfang Tao more frightened, "So, next we have to play a game."
"What...what game..."
"This game is called 'As long as your answer doesn't satisfy me, then I will tear off my clothes.' Do you understand?"
Dongfang Tao opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
But in the end, he could only shut up silently.
He felt that he was too naive, because when he had been in contact with Fang Qianwen recently, he thought she was a very gentle girl, so he actually relaxed his vigilance about the word "Tai Yi Gu".
After all, the person in front of me is the senior sister of Taiyi Valley, who can suppress the entire group of demons in Taiyi Valley and turn them into good children.
"Why did you swallow the Five Elements Reversal Blood Burning Insect yourself?" Fang Qianwen asked, "I have been investigating this matter for a while. Although the conclusion surprised me, my master once said that after ruling out
After all the possibilities, the only remaining possibility, no matter how absurd it is, will be the absolutely correct answer."
"Do you know the pressure of having high expectations?" Dongfang Tao sighed, "Everyone says that I am the leader of the seven contemporary heroes of the Dongfang family, but what is the reality? Do these people know better than me, the client?
?Once the "Jingtao Divine Technique" is mastered, it will indeed
The power is extraordinary, but in fact, the cultivation process of this technique is to continuously squeeze out one's own potential, and even squeeze out one's own vitality. This is why all those from our Dongfang family who have cultivated the "Jingtao Divine Technique" have a long lifespan.
The reason why it won’t be too long.”
"So you want to destroy your cultivation?"
"Yes." Dongfang Tao nodded, "What the Dongfang Family wants is just a puppet. Just because I have the highest compatibility with the "Stunning Wave Divine Art", they didn't take into account my wishes at all and forced me to do it.
Practicing this skill is not just for me
My mother and my father requested this, and even the patriarch and all the elders of the entire family thought so. Everyone was saying that it was for my own good and for my sake, but these people really thought about what I needed.
What is it?"
"This is the style of the family. Everything is based on profit. What's more, your Dongfang family claims to be the royal family of the Second Era, and it is even more impossible to raise waste." Fang Qianwen shook her head. Although she also sympathized with Dongfang Tao, she still
She felt that she was a person who was very particular about professional ethics, so since she accepted the consultation fee from the Dongfang Family, she would definitely treat Dongfang Tao.
"I had a very good plan, but if it weren't for you..." Dongfang Tao gritted his teeth, "I have extraordinary qualifications, so even if I spent my own money on the exercises, the Dongfang Family would not have given up on me...I have already
After asking about it, if I really lose my cultivation in the end, they will arrange a marriage for me, so I only need to be responsible for having children in the future. What a happy thing it is!"
Fang Qianwen blinked. She never thought that Dongfang Tao, the head of the seven outstanding figures of the contemporary Dongfang family, who had high hopes for the Dongfang family, would actually be such a person?!
"What's the matter with your trashy look!" Dongfang Tao was furious.
"You should thank me." Fang Qianwen sighed, "The Five Elements Reversal of the Blood Burning Worm will make you..."
"Death by burning blood." Dongfang Tao replied calmly, "I have known it for a long time...but I have a way to protect myself from death. Instead, I will integrate the power of blood into my body. As long as I find someone who is also born with vitality,
As a vigorous person, the second generation of children born after our union will inherit my and my significant other’s innate abilities, so even if we continue to practice the "Stunning Waves Divine Technique", our lifespan will not be shortened."
"I see." Fang Qianwen nodded, "You do have the Blood Root Mignonette in your hand."
"Yes, the Blood Root Mignonette flower, which represents the power of the Wood Element, has extremely pure vitality. It was this flower that saved my life and prevented me from dying due to the erosion of the Five Elements Reversal Blood Burning Insect...even
At the end of the day, I can take out this poisonous insect and make it into a magical elixir that can completely restore my energy and blood."
"This is the Tianren Sect's secret recipe, right? Why is it in your hands?"
"I once killed a seriously injured elder of Tianren Sect and found it from his body... The sealed Gu worm was also obtained in this way."
Dongfang Tao sighed, then swept his right hand on the table, and there was a flower on the table. The rhizome was red, with a crooked flower stem growing on it, but four branches extended out, and each branch had a flower.
A strange flower with seven purple-black petals.
In addition, there is a page with yellowed edges.
"Everything is here." Dongfang Tao looked helpless, "If I had known that you knew about this spiritual plant, I would have stopped the elders from inviting you over... But now it's too late to say anything.
The plan failed, I lost."
Fang Qianwen was not polite and took away the ancient prescriptions and the Blood Root Mignonette directly: "I will tell your family master that your Qi and blood deficiency is quite serious now and you need long-term recuperation. I am afraid that you will not be able to survive for decades to come.
I have to recuperate, and I can’t practice the "Shocking Waves Divine Technique" for the time being."
Dongfang Tao's eyes suddenly lit up.
But when he looked up, Fang Qianwen had already left with Qingyu and Kongling.
Later that day, with everyone in the Dongfang family breathing a sigh of relief and looking forward to it, Fang Qianwen returned to Taiyi Valley on an extremely impressive dragon carriage.
It was also at this time that Qingyu and Kongling finally understood why Fang Qianwen seemed so urgent, even going against her usual style of dealing with things.
Su Anran had an accident in the sword-washing pool and was still unconscious, so Huang Zi asked them to return to Taiyi Valley immediately.
"Sister, I have a question."
Fang Qianwen glanced at Qingyu, and then said: "Say."
"If Dongfang Tao really shouted at that time, would you really know how to tear your clothes..."
"Tear-"
Fang Qianwen tore off her clothes without saying a word.
But what is exposed under this dress is another piece of clothing.
Fang Qianwen dressed so conservatively that not even an inch of skin was exposed.
"As long as I tear a hole and cover it with my hands, no one can tell that I'm wearing a piece of clothing underneath. And as long as there are obvious signs of torn clothing on my body, Dongfang Tao will have to walk around without food. We in Taiyi Valley
Disciples will eat anything, but will not suffer any loss.
"Fang Qianwen said lightly, "From the beginning, I have only been psychologically oppressing and hinting at him. Why do you think I emphasized that those guards were protecting me, and then told the story about the incident in the Hidden Sword Pavilion and the fact that the master had been to the Dongfang Family?
Tell him everything?"
Fang Qianwen rubbed her face, and then continued: "Including my previous demeanor and tone, I have carefully deduced... Negotiation is like seeing a doctor and making elixirs. What matters is not whether you are powerful, but whether you can quickly
Identify the condition and prescribe the right medicine. From the moment I put on a strong attitude and revealed his plan, Dongfang Tao was already under my control."
"You have to remember that if you don't want to be manipulated by others in the future, the first thing to do is to step out of the other party's rules and not act within the rhythm of other people's game rules. Otherwise, no matter what you do, you will only be in the other party's hands.
