"Hubby, you've been staring at it for so long, why are you in a daze?"
Lin Ruoxi was a little angry when she saw Yang Cheng staring at her Fengxiang Bracelet without replying.
"You … say something!"
"Let go of my hand if you don't say anything!"
"Yang Cheng!"
"I'll sleep in separate rooms if you don't say anything!"
"Ah!? Don't!! "
Yang Cheng woke up immediately and smiled embarrassedly, "How can I say that? How can we sleep in separate rooms in the middle of the night?"
Lin Ruoxi rolled her eyes. Was there some kind of mechanism installed in this guy's head that he wouldn't react unless it was related to that kind of thing!?
"What are you looking at?" Lin Ruoxi asked gloomily.
Yang Cheng sighed, "Ruoxi, your Fengxiang Bracelet is supposed to be a protective artifact but why didn't it react when you were attacked by the old nun?"
Lin Ruoxi was puzzled when she heard that.
Indeed, her bracelet was supposed to protect her. It was also because of this artifact that she was almost violated by Ning Guodong.
"Could it be … that I wasn't in enough danger earlier?" Lin Ruoxi guessed.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "Yan Feiyu is more of a threat than Ning Guodong, it shouldn't have reacted this way."
The couple stared at the Fengxiang Bracelet in a daze.
At this moment, Yan Sanniang slowly walked over from the corridor.
Yan Sanniang's expression had already calmed down and she smiled sweetly, "Young Master Chen, Young Mistress, what are you thinking about?"
Yang Cheng and Lin Ruoxi turned around and saw the younger version of Grandma Yan. They were not used to it.
Yang Cheng thought that the old man must have been so clingy to Yan Sanniang because she was pretty. He really did have a hereditary trait!
I'm innocent!
Lin Ruoxi, on the other hand, thought that she must cultivate well. She was already in her sixties or seventies, but she was still so young. Cultivation was indeed more reliable than any beauty products!
"Granny Yan, it's great that you're here. Before you leave, analyze this Fengxiang Bangle for us," Yang Cheng said.
"Fengxiang bracelet?" Yan Sanniang was puzzled. "What's wrong with this bracelet?"
Yang Cheng did not hide anything as he explained that the Fengxiang Bracelet was a Dharma treasure and that it did not activate this time.
As expected, Yan Sanniang was astonished. "When Madam was still alive, I never heard that this bracelet was a Dharma treasure. I didn't expect it to be so mysterious …"
"Granny Yan, I've always been curious. Why can't you tell that this is an artifact?" Yang Cheng asked.
"Young Master Chen, not every Dharma treasure is easy to identify," Yan Sanniang said. "If the grade of the Dharma treasure is too high and it has the ability to conceal spiritual energy, not to mention a Mid Divine Transformation cultivator like me, even a Tribulation Passing Stage cultivator might not be able to identify it."
Yang Cheng understood that it was because he was exceptionally sensitive to the spiritual energy between heaven and earth that he noticed the uniqueness of the bracelet. At the same time, he was certain that the grade of the bracelet was not low.
"According to Young Master, the reason why the Fengxiang Bangle failed to protect its owner must have something to do with Young Mistress herself," Yan Sanniang said. "The higher the grade of the Dharma treasure, the more spiritual it is.
If the Fengxiang Bangle is a high-grade Dharma treasure, it would require someone of similar cultivation to use it.
Young Mistress does not have any cultivation and can only be considered as an ordinary person. The condition for the Fengxiang Bangle to activate is that the opponent must be an ordinary person as well.
If a Tribulation Passing Stage cultivator like my second sister attacked, the Fengxiang Bangle would definitely be able to sense it. Even if it tried to defend itself, it would not have enough True Yuan to support it. Hence, it chose to give up on defending itself. "
Yang Cheng was enlightened but he felt a little gloomy. Even if he gave the Dharma treasure to Lin Ruoxi, it would only be effective if Lin Ruoxi could use it!
Lin Ruoxi was a little disappointed. It seemed like she had to make use of her time to cultivate. Otherwise, she would be a burden to Yang Cheng even though she had such a good Dharma treasure.
After explaining the reason, Yang Cheng suddenly remembered and asked, "Is Granny Yan leaving? Are you here to bid farewell? "
Yan Sanniang smiled and nodded. "Yes, but before I leave, I have something to say to Young Master Chen."
Lin Ruoxi was about to enter the house when she heard that.
Yan Sanniang said, "Young Mistress, there's no need to leave. You can listen to what I have to say, it's fine."
Lin Ruoxi was a little confused, but also a little curious, so she stayed.
"Granny Yan, don't tell me you want me to take good care of my old man? You don't have to tell me that, I'm not going to abandon him." Yang Cheng smiled.
Yan Sanniang shook her head and looked serious. "No, I want to talk about Hongmeng …"
"Hongmeng?"
"That's right." Yan Sanniang said dejectedly, "Young Master Chen, you know why I escaped from the illusory realm back then.
In fact, my father, Yan Wuchen, was one of the Heaven Rank Elders of Hongmeng. He was also one of the leaders of Hongmeng. His cultivation was unfathomable. When I left, I was already at the second stage of the Six Frost Water Tribulation, the Dark Water Stage. If I'm not mistaken, I'm at least at the Weak Water Stage now.
As for an elder like my father, his cultivation is almost at the peak of Hongmeng. No one has heard of the Nine Heavenly Thunder Tribulation beyond that in the past few thousand years. No one knows if there's a cultivation technique that can reach it … "
Yang Cheng was happy to hear this. It seemed like he had picked up a treasure. Moreover, there was no one in Hongmeng who could pass through the Nine Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, so he could relax a little.
"Legend has it that to reach the peak and break through the void, one needs to pass through the Jade Clear Heavenly Thunder Tribulation of the Nine Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.
Even a cultivator at the Weak Water Stage cannot live more than a thousand years. Therefore, everyone in Hongmeng and the hidden clans are trying to break through the shackles and obtain the true inheritance of the ancient cultivation technique so that they can advance to the stage where they can challenge the Nine Heavenly Thunder Tribulation … "
Yang Cheng felt suffocated. The people from the Luo Clan who wanted to snatch his cultivation technique must have known that he had a cultivation technique.
However, he had only met people from the Luo Clan who wanted to snatch his cultivation technique. It was obvious that the Luo Clan were not stupid. If others knew that he was a 'fat meat', it would be difficult to target him.
However, how did the people from the Luo Clan know that he had the cultivation technique they wanted?
Yan Sanniang continued, "It was because of this that the people of Hongmeng became more and more uneasy and fearful after thousands of years of hard work and failure.
Initially, everyone entered Hongmeng to not disturb the secular world and to focus on enlightenment in order to break through the void.
However, everyone realized that no matter how hard they cultivated, they could not reach the stage of immortality. This way, they would not be able to focus on enlightenment after suffering so many setbacks.
Therefore, the people of Hongmeng gradually became selfish. Everyone was thinking about how to live a few more years and improve their realm and cultivation in order to find a cultivation technique that could allow them to break through to the Nine Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.
As for the secular world and the people of Hua Xia, no one cared too much about them …
This situation had been going on for thousands of years. In the past few hundred years, the situation had become more and more serious.
If it wasn't for the fact that many of the yellow-ranked people had just joined Hongmeng and were still concerned about the situation in the outside world, the envoys from Hongmeng would have already left …
This was also why General Lin Zhiguo of the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade did not even believe in the existence of the Hongmeng envoys.
Hongmeng … is already rotten. Everyone is selfish and fights for resources to improve their cultivation and increase their lifespans. No one cares about the lives of the common people anymore.
Moreover, some of the elders like my father are starting to think that the 'heavens and earth are heartless'. The common people are just ants in the heavens and their lives are just fate … "
"Hmph," Yang Cheng sneered, "I think they are just finding excuses for themselves. Everyone wants to shirk their responsibilities and focus on their own cultivation. No wonder the people of Hongmeng are so shameless and want to snatch anything good. They don't care about their image at all."
Yan Sanniang nodded, "That's right. Everyone has abandoned the will of their ancestors. Hongmeng is no longer the Hongmeng it used to be. "
"But …" Yang Cheng frowned, "Why is Granny Yan telling me all this?"
Yan Sanniang pursed her lips and smiled, "Young Master Chen … I'm telling you all this because I feel that you are the only one who has the ability to change everything!"
"Change everything?" Yang Cheng was even more confused.
"That's right." Yan Sanniang said earnestly, "I hope that one day, Young Master Chen will be able to cleanse the entire Hongmeng. You'll be able to wipe out all those selfish people who claim that the heavens and earth are not benevolent and deliberately hoard Hongmeng's resources! Even if it's my father, if he is unwilling to repent, I have nothing to say … "
Yang Cheng's face stiffened, "Granny Yan … this is a little too much. You don't have to be so serious. Even though I want to, I don't have the ability."
Lin Ruoxi looked worried as well. She did not want her man to risk his life for the sake of the world. Everyone has their own selfish motives.
"Even though you are not strong enough to challenge the whole of Hongmeng, Hongmeng is already your enemy. Are you just going to sit and wait for your death?"
"Of course not!" Yang Cheng said, "From today onwards, I plan to focus on my cultivation. Even though I can't make tremendous progress in a short period of time, I should at least correct my attitude."
Yan Sanniang smiled in relief, "That's the right thing to do, but it's not enough. Cultivation can't be achieved overnight just by being serious. Since I've said all this today, I naturally want to help Young Master Chen!"
