The green-shirted beauty was like a graceful woman walking out of an ancient painting. Her figure was slim and graceful, and even the loose skirt could not hide her perky breasts and slender waist.
Her hair was tied up in a bun with a pearl hairpin. Her black hair was as black as ink, and under her bright eyes, there was a delicate veil covering her face.
But even with the faint outline, it could be seen that this woman's appearance was impressive.
Just after the woman stood still for a moment, a black figure also landed on the other side of the mountain, a few feet away from the woman.
This man was wearing a black trench coat, his blonde hair fluttering in the wind, and his face was handsome. He was the prince of the Tzimisce Clan, Raphael, also known as Hermes.
After a few infatuated glances at the woman, Hermes smiled evilly, "I like your outfit."
The woman glanced at him coldly, "How's it going?"
Hermes shrugged, "It failed. Even Athena's Great Prophecy couldn't predict the appearance of that special defective charm belt, but it's still better than us."
"Hmph," the woman said disdainfully, "It's just luck."
Hermes laughed strangely a few times, "What about you? Did you catch that person? "
The green-shirted woman's eyes were cold, "That person is very cunning. It's a cinch to win against him, but to catch him … it's extremely difficult. But, I will catch him sooner or later."
"Then you have to hurry up. Athena has found Gaia's Heart. Although there are many interludes in her plan, she has always been pushing it forward. If we wait until she completely launches the whole plan, then we won't have a chance. "
"Do you think her plan will really go so smoothly? She only reserved more than 30% of her strength, and the Great Prophecy Technique is already full of loopholes. Otherwise, she wouldn't need to show up in person to set things right. "
"I'm afraid that if she succeeds, wouldn't she be riding on our heads for thousands of years?"
"What's there to be afraid of? No matter how high her realm of the Law of Space is, it's difficult to improve, and my strength is completely different from before. I don't have to be afraid of her!
Cultivator Hua Xia's cultivation technique was extraordinary, and he also had the immortal weapons passed down from ancient times. None of them were easy to deal with.
What's more, I'm different from her. She needs Gaia's Heart to restore her to her peak state. As for me, it doesn't matter if I have Gaia's Heart or not! "
Hermes smiled strangely and said, "That's true. Why don't you let that guy make another defective product, and I'll go play again?"
"There's no need. Although she can't kill you, it won't be difficult for her to send you into the cycle of reincarnation. With your strength, it will take at least sixty years for you to awaken again. At that time, I'm afraid it will be too late for you to do anything.
Hermes snorted softly, but he had nothing to say.
The woman narrowed her eyes. "By the way, what did Apollo, Poseidon, and the others mean?"
"Them? Hmph, "Hermes said disdainfully." A group of people are afraid of Athena. They want to oppose her but don't dare to. It's impossible for them to help us. I guess they're just pretending not to know anything and waiting to see what happens. "
The woman nodded. "That's fine. In the end, even if that bitch Athena deserves to die, she's still one of us … I don't object to her wanting to revive Gaia's Heart, but … even if we want to revive the Protoss, it shouldn't be the same as it was tens of thousands of years ago!"
Hermes grinned mysteriously, his eyes sparkling with a strange light.
…
The next morning, Mother Wang had already arrived home early to prepare breakfast. Seeing Lin Ruoxi coming downstairs, she said happily, "Miss, you're finally back. I just saw the morning news that Nanshan was on fire last night. I'm afraid the house you bought will have to pay for. Since you're back, let's not move out in the future if we have any conflicts."
Fire?
Lin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment. She immediately understood that the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade was just "destroying the evidence".
Lin Ruoxi didn't care too much about whether there would be compensation for the ten-million-yuan mansion.
She looked around and saw that Yang Cheng wasn't home. She couldn't help but ask, "Mother Wang, where did Yang Cheng go?"
Mother Wang shrugged helplessly. "I'm wondering too. He disappeared early in the morning. I thought he was sleeping with you the whole time."
Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Although Yang Cheng said he didn't blame her, he was just very confused.
However, Lin Ruoxi felt that the man was still angry at her.
Usually, they would sit here early in the morning and eat breakfast together. But now, he wasn't even willing to eat together …
Lin Ruoxi's heart ached.
Mother Wang advised, "Miss, why don't you give him a call and ask? He might have something urgent to attend to. "
Lin Ruoxi nodded and took out her phone. Just as she was about to dial, she paused and put her phone down.
"Forget it, he must have something to attend to. We can't control him all the time," Lin Ruoxi forced a smile.
Mother Wang didn't mind it too much. "That's right, we can't control him too much. It's not easy for us to reunite as a family."
"Mm … Mother Wang, I'm going to the airport to pick up Lanlan tomorrow afternoon. I'll make more delicious food, but don't make it too greasy. Mom said that Lanlan has been eating meat these few days in Beijing. I don't want her to become a little fat pig," Lin Ruoxi smiled helplessly.
Mother Wang was naturally overjoyed. She nodded quickly. "I know, I miss this little baby so much. Leave it to me. Miss, don't you have to work today? Let's go early after eating. "
Lin Ruoxi nodded and sat down with a smile. She picked up the spoon and was about to open her mouth. She couldn't help but look at the empty seat where Yang Cheng usually sat. She felt sad … …
… ….
Yan Jing, Ning family's courtyard.
Although it had snowed a few times in Beijing this winter, the sun today was extremely bright. It was so warm that it made people sleepy.
In the courtyard, Ning Guangyao, Ning Xin, and Ning De sat at the stone table and drank freshly brewed Da Hong Pao tea. It was also an afternoon of fun.
"This secular world is indeed not conducive to cultivation. There are too many temptations in the secular world. There are too many flashy things that really wear away one's Dao heart …"
Ning De tapped the stone table with one hand and sighed leisurely.
Ning Guangyao said sensibly, "Elder Ning De, cultivating one's character and temperament is actually a form of letting nature take its course. You don't have to be too rigid about it."
"Haha, not bad … You're indeed a talent to be a premier. What you said makes sense." Ning De picked up the teacup and took two sips.
Ning Xin snorted in disdain. "It doesn't matter if we cultivate our character here. But Guangyao, what happened to your daughter and that kid from the Yang Family? If they really split up, then your plan to merge the Ning Family and the Yang Family will be completely messed up. "
Ning De frowned and looked at Ning Guangyao suspiciously.
"Elders, don't worry. I've been secretly monitoring them." Ning Guangyao smiled and said, "Actually, my daughter and Yang Cheng have been married for almost two years. Based on Yang Cheng's temperament when he was abroad, his persistence in changing women like changing clothes is already a problem.
Their quarrel this time will only be more beneficial to us. I made a special trip to Zhonghai that day and met Ruoxi. She will naturally feel the warmth of providing charcoal in snowy weather.
I heard news this morning that Ruoxi has returned home. In this case, it's most likely that the small matter has been resolved and they've reconciled.
Their relationship as husband and wife has been maintained and I've taken this opportunity to get closer to them. It's the best of both worlds. "
Ning Xin and Ning De were also overjoyed.
"That's great. That kid from the Yang Family is not simple. I don't know what kind of cultivation technique he is cultivating. Even his woman has such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. If we can pull him into the Ning Family, as the son-in-law of the Ning Family, it's best to hand over all his cultivation techniques. This will be of great benefit to our Ning Family. "
"Guangyao, it's very important for you to build a good relationship with your son-in-law. It's not only about your status in the secular Ning Family but also the cultivation path of our Ning Family. We can't make a big move in the secular world. So, it's up to you, "Ning Xin said solemnly.
Ning Guangyao sneered in his heart. Yang Cheng had been dissatisfied with him for not telling him about this earlier. Moreover, Yang Cheng wasn't as easily fooled as Lin Ruoxi. It was easy for him to say that.
But on the surface, Ning Guangyao still pretended to be polite and courteous to reassure them that he would do his best to complete the plan.
