Behind her, whether it was Fifth Chuan or Sikong Shan, the two masters who had been known in the feng shui and trigonometry circles of the imperial capital for a long time, were surprisingly standing on either side.
Luo Ziqiu’s hand shook and his phone dropped.
He met the girl’s waveless gaze, his back tensed up in an instant and his body stiffened.
Everything Luo Ziqiu knew about Ying Zijiu came from the internet.
She was so famous that she was known everywhere in the world where the internet was available.
But the aura that surrounded her was mostly that of the wife of the CEO of the Venus Group and a genius student at Imperial University.
It had nothing to do with the Xuan Clan.
They had never looked down on people from the secular world either.
But one had to admit that Ying Zidian was perfect.
It was just that she was too far away from his world, no longer someone he could think about.
But now?
Luo Ziqiu thought back to Luo Huo’s earlier words and his blood ran cold.
Master Ying?
“Magnanimous nephew, what are you doing frozen?” The Gu family master hadn’t heard what was on the phone, his expression was cold and solemn, his eyes cold, “The Fifth Family kidnapped my daughter for no reason, is there an explanation to be given?”
“Don’t think that just because this is the imperial capital, you can disobey the rules of the Xuan Sect!”
Xuanmen is also a general term for the Feng Shui and Gua Arithmetic community, signifying the realm of the esoteric and profound.
The rules of the Xuan Sect were only gradually built up from the Tang Dynasty.
One of them was that the disciples of the Xuan Sect should never kill each other.
The Gu Clan master didn’t even look at Ying Zidian, he walked in with big strides and sneered, “Fifth Chuan, you are old, I think you have less than three years to live, the future Xuan Sect is the domain of my Gu Clan and the Luo Clan, what are you arrogant about here?”
“Why don’t you quickly release Hong Sleeve and make amends to my Gu Family again.”
Luo Ziqiu suddenly woke up and hurriedly stopped, “Uncle Gu, you don’t-”
Before he could finish his words, the Gu family head suddenly let out a miserable scream.
It was as if something invisible had struck him on the nose with such force that the Gu family head did not confiscate it and sat down directly on the ground.
Ying Ziqi moved his wrist, his internal energy collected, and faintly: “Noisy.”
Luo Ziqiu’s cold sweat flowed even more.
This Master Ying, or an ancient martial artist?
“What are you frozen for?” Sikong Shan rolled his eyes, “Why don’t you carry your family master in?”
The rest of the Gu family looked at each other and had to carry the Gu Family Master inside.
Gu Hongshu was in the courtyard, her hands and feet were tied.
Her hair was dishevelled and dishevelled, not at all the demeanour of a lady of the house.
Seeing the Gu family head and Luo Ziqiu, Gu Hongsleeve was surprised: ”Dad! Ziqiu! Save me, save me!”
Luo Ziqiu’s lips pursed up as he avoided Gu Hongsleeve’s gaze, his fists clenched, his heart already beginning to regret.
“My son!” The Gu family head gritted his teeth and raised his head, “Fifth family, what exactly is the meaning of this?!”
“She violated the rules of the Xuan Sect by trespa*sing on the art of witchcraft.” Ying Ziji finished rolling up his sleeves, “Look, you guys, how should this matter be handled?”
“The master ancestor is the master of Shao-string ancestor and now Yue Yue’s master.” Fifth Chuan remained respectful, “All matters should be handled by the master ancestor.”
“……”
The whole room was instantly dead silent.
Even Fifth Snow who was standing by was stunned.
After a few seconds of silence, he turned his head, “Big brother, you’ve spent the longest time with Yue Yue, you know?”
Thirty seconds later, the fifth wind waved his hand slowly, “I don’t know.”
Sikong Shan was even more shocked, “Crap?!”
He only knew that Ying Zigui’s ability to tell fortunes was the best in China, but how did he get involved with the Fifth Shao Xing of the Ming Dynasty?
Ying Zidian was obviously a young girl who would only turn twenty next month!
In a flash, the urban immortal novels that Sikong Shan had been reading in his boredom started to swirl around in his head.
He thought about all of them, but he couldn’t come up with any justification.
Sikong Shan held his head, very painful: “My world view is shattered.”
The fifth flower squatted down and comforted him, “It’s not a big problem, I’m shattered too.”
The Gu family and Luo Ziqiu were even more shocked to the point of losing their words.
Fifth Shao-string’s status in the Chinese trigonometry world was so high that there were Xuan Sects dedicated to him, both in the imperial capital and in Luo Nan.
Then Fifth Shao-string’s master?
It was impossible for Fifth Chuan to lie about such matters, which concerned the Fifth Family’s ancestor.
“Flutter, flutter-”
The Gu Family Master’s face turned pale and he directly knelt down on the ground.
Luo Ziqiu was no better, likewise kneeling.
“I have no intention of starting a conflict with the Luo family, but you should know -” Ying Ziyi faintly, “it’s not that I’m afraid of your Luo family, but that your Luo family is worthless.”
Luo Ziqiu could not even lift his head, his body trembling continuously.
Fifth Youngstring was already outstandingly capable, and his master was simply not an existence they could even begin to imagine?
How could the Luo family dare to compare?
Ying Zidian, who had easily killed the giant snake that had been coiled in the imperial capital for a hundred years, and the Grand Elder of the Xie family.
You know, when the Xie family’s Grand Elder was alive, his prestige and power had once overpowered the Fifth Chuan and Sikong Shan.
Not to mention, the Xie Family was also the number one family in the Ancient Martial World.
But the Xie family didn’t even dare to let out a single fart.
Luo Ziqiu was far away in Luo Nan, so naturally he had never entered the ancient martial world.
He didn’t know that the Xie family had been destroyed last year and the ancient martial world had changed.
Ying Zijiu’s eyelashes dropped and she tapped her fingers on the table: “What did the Gu family say?”
“Miss Ying! Master Ying! Old Ancestor!” He fell to his knees and kowtowed frantically, “It’s all my fault for not teaching my daughter properly, please forgive her for her momentary ignorance, Master Ying, spare her life!”
Gu Hongshu sat frozen on the ground, no longer able to speak.
Her mind buzzed and a fishy sweetness rose in her throat.
Who had she offended?
And what kind of luck had Fifth Moon had to have such a powerful master.
“Good job teaching your daughter.” Ying Ziji smiled faintly, “So, you’re going to share your daughter’s crime?”
The Gu family master’s body trembled, “Master Ying?”
“Don’t worry, I am a good and reasonable person.” Ying nodded, “Everything will be done according to the rules, how should one deal with the malicious use of witchcraft against fellow disciples in the Xuan Sect?”
Sikong Shan had a jolt and blurted out, “Naturally, I will treat others the way they treat me.”
“Good.” Ying Zidian nodded, “Then let’s do that.”
“I’ll do it I’ll do it.” Sikong Shan came to his feet, “Master Ying, I-”
“No need.” Ying Zigui raised his hand to block it, “You’re not from the Fifth Family, you don’t need to be involved in karma, I’ll do it.”
Gu Hongshu’s eyes widened and she panicked all of a sudden, “No …… I don’t want to!”
Her trigonometry skills were definitely not as strong as Ying Zidian’s.
If it was Ying Zidian who did the witchcraft on her, how long could she last?
The Gu family head also panicked and started kowtowing again, “Master Ying spare my life, old ancestor spare my life!”
Ying Zidian’s eyebrows were cold and he held two pieces of wood in his hands.
Under the effect of internal energy, the two pieces of wood quickly turned into the shape of puppets.
Ying Ziji closed her eyes slightly.
She didn’t want to think back to that day either.
Fifth Moon had clearly suffered a huge backlash for counting her heart, yet she still persistently knelt down and said –
My apprentice, thank you, Master.
Fifth Moon was naughty and liked to cause trouble, then she would protect it.
Whoever bullied Fifth Moon, she would return the favour.
Ying Ziji looked at the Gu family head and Gu Hongshu, then she carved all their birth names.
After making them, she handed the two puppets to Fifth Chuan: “Send them away.”
Fifth Chuan took them, “Yes, Master.”
The Gu family master was in complete despair: “Master Ying! The Gu family was wrong, really wrong!”
They hadn’t even taken Fifth Moon to heart in the first place, who would have counted on this scene today?
“As for you, since you and Yue Yue have withdrawn from the marriage, then do as you said before.” Ying Zijiu didn’t look at Luo Ziqiu either, indifferent, “Karma has been broken, it’s irrelevant.”
Luo Ziqiu was bitter inside, he kowtowed a few times, his voice hard, “Yes, Master Ying.”
If he had known that Fifth Moon’s master was the master that their Luo family had gone to great lengths to befriend, how could he have backed out of the marriage with her?
If the Luo family hadn’t been so aggressive in the first place, and he had married Fifth Moon, how could he worry about not having a backer?
It was clear that Ying had surpa*sed all those in the Xuan Sect and had reached a level they could not hope to reach.
Luo Ziqiu’s thoughts were extremely confused and remorse overwhelmed his heart, so much so that he could not breathe.
But it was a great blessing to return unharmed.
However, Luo Ziqiu knew that the Luo family was going to be finished.
With Sikong Shan and Fifth Chuan sitting here, in less than a day’s time, word of Ying Ziqi’s identity would spread throughout the Xuan Sect.
And now that Luo Huo’s powers had been nullified again, the Luo family had lost its top pillar.
Luo Ziqiu was somewhat bewildered.
How had things, in the end, come to this?
**
Sure enough, within a day, the news spread.
The Chinese Xuan Sect was completely shaken.
“This Luo family and Gu family are really used to being arrogant over in Luo Nan.” Sikong Shan shook his head, “Sure enough, there will still be a day when they will fall.”
“That’s right, with the hand of the senior ancestor, it will naturally be handed to us.” Fifth Chuan stroked his beard and smiled, “Brother Sikong, ah, do you want to go and sit up there?”
“What?” Sikong Shan raised his head and looked at the roof, not happy, “Do you think I know ancient martial arts and can fly like the old ancestor?”
“What’s wrong with that, I’ll take you.” Fifth Chuan put on the mech that Ying Zigui had made for him and was very proud of himself, “See, I can fly.”
Before Sikong Shan could react, he was carried up to the roof by Fifth Chuan.
Sikong Shan looked at the mech on him for a long time, “Good, fifth old man, when did you have such a nice thing on my back?”
Blinding his eyes.
“This was given to me by my master.” Fifth Chuan slowly and leisurely, “If you have the ability, you go find a master ancestor too.”
Sikong Sun: “……”
He hated.
He was jealous.
“Hehehe.” Sikong Shan’s eyes rolled, “Then if my grandson marries your granddaughter, or if my granddaughter marries your grandson, won’t I be able to rub it in?”
Fifth Chuan: “…… You don’t even think about it.”
Sikong Shan grunted twice: “You don’t even let people dream anymore, you are really domineering.”
“I know myself that I won’t live much longer.” Fifth Chuan sat down and sighed, “So this before I die, I just hope to see Yue Yue become a family, I’m already satisfied.”
Hearing these words, Sikong Shan fell silent.
It was only after a long time that he spoke, “Those in our line of work, who interfere with established karma by striking out, don’t live long.”
“Yes, but now that the Fifth Family has the Master watching over them, I am at ease.” Fifth Chuan’s expression suddenly became solemn, “I, Fifth Chuan, have acted all my life, saved thousands of people and solved hundreds of supernatural incidents.”
“In this life, I am not ashamed of the ancestors of the Shao String, the nine clans of the Fifth Family, the Heaven, the Earth, or myself.”
There was nothing to regret.
“Fifth old man, hang in there.” Sikong Shan was anxious, “How can you hold out until Miss Yue gets married and has a child, another year, another year.”
“Bullsh*t!” Fifth Chuan’s beard shook with anger, “Yue Yue will only be nineteen after her birthday this year, who would be that beastly!”
Whoever dares, he’ll pick the skin of anyone!
Sikong Shan: “……”
Only then did Fifth Chuan remember something important.
Where did his precious Yue Yue run off to?
**
o Continent.
Fei Leng Cui.
Fifth Moon was literally blindsided when she entered Laurent Castle for the first time.
The place she was taken to was certainly not the front hall, but the heart of the castle where Cesar had always lived.
The walls and floors of the long corridor were covered in gold and inlaid with many rare gems.
Immediately, Fifth Moon began to calculate how much money she could make by prying all of these away.
“Miss Moon.” Jobe owed, “This is your room, if you have any orders, just ring the bell.”
“No no, it’s too extravagant.” Fifth Moon suddenly covered her face in great pain, “I’m so rich-hating!”
Jobe: “???”
It was over.
If Miss Yue hated the rich, wouldn’t the only good thing about their master be gone?
Qiao Bu coughed lightly and changed the subject, “Does Miss Yue not like it here? Shall I give you a different room?”
“No, no, no, it’s very much like that.” Fifth Moon gritted her teeth, “But I just hate the rich!”
Jobe: “……”
His good servant upbringing allowed him to pick up again, “Miss Moon likes this place a lot, what if I gave it to you?”
Without even thinking about it, Fifth Moon’s subconscious response was, “Sure, take the castle without the people!”
Jobe: “……”
There was no way this conversation was going to go any further
He closed the door and backed out.
Mentally, he gave another silent wax to Cesar.
There was a day to celebrate, too.
The front hall.
The group of elders were gathered together and were discussing the upcoming presentation.
The Eldest Elder suddenly said, “Isn’t it time for the Master to take a wife and have children?”
“Yes it is time.” The Second Elder scratched his head, “There are very few girls who might be worthy of the master.”
“Actually it still depends on the master’s own wishes.” The First Elder nodded, “But the invitations can be sent to all single noble girls under the age of twenty-five, so let’s see who the master can talk to then.”
“Good, good, I’ll go and make the invitations.”
“What invitations?”
A voice rang out.
The elders all rose at once: “The master.”
The young man was wearing a white suit, with a handsome face and three-dimensional features.
The blue eyes were as deep as the sea, with waves of water.
“Master, we are thinking of your lifelong commitment.” The Eldest Elder squared his shoulders, “Or if there is someone the master likes, we will raise our family to meet them!”
Cesar was silent for a moment.
He hadn’t figured out how to chase someone yet.
Especially since Jobe had just given him the Fifth Moon’s hatred of the rich.
Cesar thought for a moment, “Invitation, to the Luo Nan Luo family.”
“The Lonanro family?”
The group of elders looked at each other, obviously none of them had heard of this chicken-haired little family.
“Well, send it over.” Xize faintly, “Luo Ziqiu, this person, must come.”
He wouldn’t let Fifth Moon be bullied either.
**
This side.
Luo Ziqiu returned to Luo Nan lost in thought.
The whole person looked like his essence had been drained away and was very weak.
Luo Huo didn’t care that he still had injuries on his body, he hurriedly spoke, “How is it? What did Master Ying say?”
“Master Ying said -” Luo Ziqiu laughed bitterly, “from now on, there will be no more ties.”
After a pause, he added, “She’s not just Master Ying, she’s also the fifth youngest string’s master.”
“Ah?!”
Luo Huo was completely dumbfounded.
It was only after a long time that he came back to his senses in a trance, and his face turned ghastly white bit by bit, “It’s over! It’s really over ……”
Their Luo family’s path in the Xuan Sect had come to an end!
Luo Ziqiu opened a bottle of wine and was annoyed.
“Ziqiu, good thing!” Just then, Luo’s father barged in, his face full of excitement, “Do you know who just sent us an invitation?!”
Luo Ziqiu didn’t have the slightest interest at all, he just kept on drinking, looking bored, “Who? I’m not going anyway.”
Luo’s father said immediately afterwards, “The Laurent family!”
Luo Ziqiu’s expression changed, and the gloom between his eyebrows was swept away as he jerked up, “Dad, what are you talking about?!”
“It’s that Laurent family you’re thinking of.” Luo’s father was overwhelmed with excitement, “They sent us an invitation specifically, and invited you by name to attend their presentation.”
“Ziqiu, your good day has come, hurry up, get your things ready, you might be able to marry the Miss of the Laurent family then!”
The Laurent family was the number one international family, extremely powerful.
I heard that it was also backed by an extremely powerful diviner.
Their financial resources are unimaginably huge.
How could the fifth family be compared?
