"It's not a magical treasure?" Yang Cheng said unhappily, "There's clearly some weird spiritual energy on it. It should be used for special screening. How could it be an ordinary broken bronze plate?"
"Of course it's not an ordinary item," Hsiao Chih-ching explained, "This is the proof of identity of a Hongmeng citizen!"
"Hongmeng?"
"That's right." Hsiao Chih-ching said seriously, "If this' Yellow Token 'really came from that Taoist, then it means that he's a' Yellow 'rank member of Hongmeng."
Yang Cheng gradually understood as he listened to Hsiao Chih-ching's explanation.
Hongmeng was located near the ancient formation. In the central area of Kekexili, the creator of the illusory realm created the "Heavenly Islands" at the same time.
The Heavenly Islands were a group of different sizes suspended in the air.
At the top of these islands was the ancient formation.
From top to bottom, there were four main areas: Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow.
The Heaven Ranks were the top existences who didn't care about Hongmeng. They only focused on protecting the formation and pursuing the Heavenly Dao. These Doyens with unfathomable cultivation bases were all on the highest and only "Heaven's Vault Island".
The Earth Ranks were the leaders of Hongmeng. However, there were only a dozen elders, and most of them were in the Tribulation Stage.
The Black Ranks were the backbone of Hongmeng. Most of them were in the late Soul Forming stage, and there were more than a hundred of them.
Most of them were at the lowest level of the Yellow Rank.
They were made up of those who had entered Hongmeng for less than two hundred years, or those whose cultivation was lower than the Tribulation Stage.
The Yellow Rank was actually the "Hongmeng" that the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade often referred to. This was because the Yellow Rank was in charge of daily communication with the secular world. Periodically, they would send out a "Hongmeng Messenger" as the judge.
However, the power of the Yellow Rank wasn't uniform. The stronger ones were comparable to the Soul Formation Final Stage, while the weaker ones were comparable to the Soul Formation Early Stage. Cultivators of the same rank had different offensive powers due to their different cultivation arts and dao comprehensions.
Back then, Ling Xuzi had been in Hongmeng for less than two hundred years and hadn't reached the Tribulation Passing Stage yet. His strength was considered high among the yellow-rank, so he was sent as a messenger.
Of course, because Hongmeng wasn't a strictly disciplined organization, even if they weren't Hongmeng messengers, as long as they didn't affect the secular order, they wouldn't be punished.
After all, the main purpose of Hongmeng's existence was to protect the grand formation, and at the same time, to prevent those who had reached the Soul Formation stage and shouldn't live in the secular world from disturbing the society of ordinary people. It was not really to forcibly imprison those cultivators above the Soul Formation stage.
What was certain was that the Golden rank was the level where good and bad people mixed together.
Not all of them were loyal to Hongmeng. Some Golden rank cultivators would choose to secretly join the hidden families in order to get some elixirs and dharma treasures to help them improve.
It was conceivable that although Hongmeng was an organization for itinerant cultivators, in terms of resources, it was really poor to share it with over a thousand cultivators.
"This' Yellow Token 'is that person's proof of identity, and it's also the key that can be used to detect the illusion of Ke Ke Xi Li. If you take it, you can smoothly enter that world," Hsiao Chih-ching said.
Yang Cheng was delighted and said with a chuckle, "In that case, this thing is more useful than the three dharma treasures. I have to keep it."
After saying that, Yang Cheng put all four things back into the parallel space.
Lin Ruoxi had been listening silently and did not interrupt. At this time, she finally opened her mouth and said, "Don't act recklessly. I just said that the other party is not the kind of people that you can suppress. If you go, you might not even be able to fill the gaps between your teeth.
I'm very worried now. Will Hongmeng become your enemy after you killed that Daoist? "
"I don't think so." Hsiao Chih-ching shook her head and said, "Hongmeng will definitely not involve the people of the secular world in order to snatch something. Yang Cheng's cultivation is so high, of course it is understandable, but since he kidnapped you, it means that he has his own personal reasons, or …. He was instructed by the hidden families to do so.
Even if Hongmeng knew that Yang Cheng killed that Daoist, they would not blame Yang Cheng. After all, that Daoist was the one who did the wrong thing first. The elders of Hongmeng are all very principled. Compared to those hidden families, they are much better. "
Hsiao Chih-ching's words were obviously filled with hatred.
This kind of hatred that came from the bones would probably be imprinted in the bottom of a woman's heart for the rest of her life.
Only then did Lin Ruoxi let out a sigh of relief, but then she frowned and said, "In that case, isn't the reason most likely because the hidden families want to make a move on us?"
"That's right." Hsiao Chih-ching sneered and said, "They are all extremely greedy. They must have found out from some channel that Yang Cheng's cultivation technique is very mysterious, but because of some reason, they can't directly snatch it, so they won over the people of Hongmeng. According to common sense, a Huang rank cultivator in Hongmeng would not have more than one magic treasure, but this cultivator has as many as three. He must have listened to the hidden families to get the benefits. "
Yang Cheng's eyes wandered, thinking about the expert he met at the Tang Sect, he vaguely felt that there must be a connection, but these things were hidden in his heart, there was no need for him to say it.
"I want to thank you for helping me solve a lot of problems. If there is anything I don't understand in the future, I will ask you." Yang Cheng said with a smile.
Hsiao Chih-ching's eyes flashed with a hint of light, she immediately nodded and agreed, "I am a postgraduate student in the computer science department of Zhonghai University, I am a professor's assistant, you can find me at any time."
When the words were about to come out of her mouth, she felt that it was a bit easy to misunderstand, so Hsiao Chih-ching hurriedly apologized to Lin Ruoxi and said, "Miss Lin, I … I didn't mean that, I already know my mistake …"
Lin Ruoxi smiled faintly and shook her head indifferently.
After hearing about Hsiao Chih-ching's tragic life, Lin Ruoxi did not have much dislike for this girl who was not even 20 years old but had suffered so much.
First, he promised to forgive her, not to be calculative about her lies and obstructions, and even asked Hsiao Chih-ching to stay at home for dinner.
However, Hsiao Chih-ching tactfully said goodbye and left.
Although Yang Cheng did not clearly say that he would protect her, nor did he say that he would help her take revenge, she understood the meaning behind Yang Cheng's words. Naturally, he would not disregard her life and death.
She also knew that her request was actually a little unreasonable, it was already a great success to have such an outcome.
In the evening, Zhenxiu, who was working outside, also returned home, but because of her schedule, Hui Lin had to rush to another place to work, so naturally, she would not return home in the short term.
On the other hand, Yang Cheng felt that it was quite easy. After all, the answer he gave to Hui Lin at the Yuan Family's place would definitely make it a little awkward for the two of them to meet.
After knowing that Lin Ruoxi was kidnapped in the morning, Mother Wang specially made a lot of delicious food to calm her nerves.
When the family of four sat down for dinner, Yang Cheng's phone vibrated.
Yang Cheng picked it up and saw the number, a trace of anticipation flashed through his eyes.
He picked it up and asked, "Ron, are you ready?"
On the other side of the phone, it was Ron, the old man who had been looking after Yang Cheng's house in Europe.
"Your Majesty Pluto, finally, everything is ready. We can start anytime in the next month," Ron said elegantly and happily.
Yang Cheng did not say much and directly hung up the phone, turning his head to look at Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi felt that Yang Cheng's gaze was a little weird, it seemed to be a little fiery. She asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong?"
Yang Cheng took a deep breath and said emotionally, "It's been almost half a year, and it's finally done. Tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow, you can make some preparations and we'll go to Beijing. "
Lin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment before she understood what Yang Cheng meant by 'prepare'. She couldn't help nodding her head with her cheeks blushing.
"Beijing, are we going to see Auntie Guo and Brother Yang's grandfather?" Zhenxiu asked with anticipation.
"You're going too?" Yang Cheng asked with a weird smile.
Zhenxiu looked at Mother Wang and said, "Mother Wang, I'll go too if you're going. Don't you miss Auntie Guo?"
Mother Wang patted Zhenxiu's head affectionately and scolded with a smile, "Don't mess things up. Beijing's Yang Family isn't a place that anyone can go. Just stay at home with me and look after the house. "
Zhenxiu stuck out her pink tongue and didn't say anything else.
However, Mother Wang turned to Yang Cheng and said, "Young master, I heard from Miss that you're planning to hold a wedding. Is the wedding going to be held soon?"
Yang Chen looked at Lin Ruoxi in surprise. Laughing, he said, "Hehe, Babe Ruoxi, I didn't know you were looking forward to it so much that you even told Wang Ma secretly?"
"I …" How could I!? "Lin Ruoxi was so embarrassed that she wanted to hide under the table. She anxiously said," Mother Wang, don't spout nonsense! "
Mother Wang smiled bitterly and hurriedly said, "Alright, alright, I was the one who eavesdropped, right? Don't bother with an old woman like me. What's there to be shy about? Besides, we've been married for almost two years and we haven't had a wedding yet."
Yang Cheng blushed with shame. He had been preparing for half a year in order to hold a wedding that would leave no regrets. Was it easy for him?
"Son-in-law!" Mother Wang said with a smile, "I just want to know, although I won't be going to Beijing, can I be there at the wedding? I know that after preparing for so long, it's most likely not going to be in the country.
To me, watching the young miss grow up as a bride has always been a wish of mine. I want to participate, can I … "
"Mother Wang …" Why are you saying such sad words? "When Lin Ruoxi heard this, tears welled up in her eyes.
Yang Cheng smiled and said, "Of course you can, and you must be present. I've even helped you choose your role at the wedding, so don't worry."
Mother Wang immediately revealed a relieved smile. She happily wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "Miss, I think you should put the company aside. How can such an important matter be more important than seeing your in-laws and having a wedding? Tomorrow, let's leave tomorrow. "
