Fang Ruotang, a frail and unremarkable girl from the Prime Minister’s household,
one day found herself pestered by a tiny, cutesy creature called the Mirror of Reversal—
and it star...
"Alright, alright! You must be tired these past few days, go back and rest early! I'm going back to sleep too, goodbye, goodbye." Fang Ruotang waved and turned to walk into the mansion.
Ye Wuxia sighed softly. Oh well, she brought it on herself, so she accepted it.
Who told him to knowingly jump into a trap?
This is nothing; there will be many more big scenes to come.
After watching Fang Ruotang enter the mansion, Ye Wuxia turned and left. The gate behind him slowly closed. He couldn't help but look back, only to see that familiar color of a dress.
Inside the mansion, Fang Shengtang couldn't wait to ask Fang Ruotang about the progress of Ye Wuxia's relationship.
Fang Ruotang explained everything in detail.
She not only told Fang Shengtang everything Ye Wuxia said and did, but also mentioned that she touched Ye Wuxia's abs, and then questioned Fang Shengtang about it.
"Does your brother-in-law have abs? Do you like to touch them?"
Fang Shengtang: ...
Is this a place we can talk to?
"You don't like it either, and I think it's just so-so. I don't know why so many girls like it. I still think my belly is nicer to touch, it's soft and fluffy."
Seeing that Fang Shengtang remained silent, Fang Ruotang made her own conclusion.
Fang Shengtang didn't refute it; she was too embarrassed to discuss such ambiguous topics with her sister, she had to save face.
Fang Ruotang was away for a few days, and her family lived in fear for the same few days.
Knowing she was back, she didn't go home immediately but instead went to attend General Lü's wedding banquet, which made her family scold her several times.
But the family, though reluctant, waited from afternoon until evening until she returned home.
"Hey! Why aren't you all asleep?"
Fang Ruotang, carefree and oblivious, saw her family in the hall and skipped over, grabbing Old Madam Fang's arm and nuzzling her with her little head, sticky and clingy like a little sticky cake.
"Grandma, did you miss me? Did you know I was coming back and wait for me?"
Old Madam Fang pinched Fang Ruotang's nose and gently twisted it.
"You heartless little girl, you know your grandmother is worried about you, yet you didn't come home to let her know you were safe after returning to the capital, and you still have the nerve to say that."
"Hehehe! After all, I was the one who brought up the marriage between Sister Lü and Prince Shen! As the matchmaker, I should at least go and see for myself."
"You! You're always so playful. If it weren't for the elixir you gave me, how could your grandmother be here with her old bones waiting for you?" Old Madam Fang seemed to be complaining, but her beaming smile revealed her deep affection for Fang Ruotang.
"Grandma isn't an old bone! She's the youngest and most beautiful girl. Once the passage between the two worlds is connected, I'll have Little Mirror take me to find the materials for the Spirit Refining Pill."
"Why bother? Grandmother has cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage; living for two hundred years is more than enough."
"That's right, stop messing around. We've already lived longer than others by living for two hundred years." Shu and the others chimed in, each offering their own opinion.
It wasn't that they were particularly magnanimous in their indifference to life and death, but rather that they had already learned this from Fang Ruotang and Xiao Jingzi's conversation.
Every rare and precious material has a guardian beast nearby. Even if people from the cultivation world wanted to snatch it, they would face a nine-out-of-ten chance of death. They already had a chance to defy fate because of Fang Ruotang, so how could they let her risk her life for them again?
Fang Ruotang rolled her eyes, then smiled but didn't reply.
You promised to help me gather the necessary materials to cleanse my family's spiritual roots, you haven't forgotten, have you?
"My lord, you must believe me! With the current state of your soul's recovery, as long as you revive these beings, your divine power will also recover to some extent. Besides, the Crown Prince and the others will gradually break the seal. When that happens, together you will definitely be able to seize those rare and precious treasures."
He said the Marrow Cleansing Pill was important; that was what he told Fang Ruotang to trick her into doing the mission.
But he really didn't have any Spirit Tempering Pills.
The materials used to refine the Spirit Tempering Pill are extremely rare, even in the cultivation world.
It's not that those treasures just grow there, waiting for people to pick them.
The appearance of treasures is uncertain, and since the lord and his companions came with the great man, they simply did not have time to wait for each of the unborn rare treasures.
That's good! I don't want to end up a lonely old monster, with my family members all leaving me before me.
Fang Ruotang has seen it all now. After seeing Li Shiyun's cultivation progress with her Heavenly Spirit Root, she couldn't bear to look at the rest of the family.
However, cultivation level is linked to lifespan, so Fang Ruotang could only try to make up for her family's shortcomings in other ways by finding a small mirror.
Fortunately, this small world lacks rare and precious materials for refining spiritual roots, but the cultivation world does. Moreover, the little mirror also told her that if all else fails, she could steal someone else's spiritual root and exchange it for her family.
Upon hearing Fang Ruotang's thoughts, the Fang family members suddenly fell silent in their attempts to dissuade her. Thinking of that scene, those with shallow eyes immediately welled up with tears.
The world is vast, but I have no blood relatives. Just imagining it makes me feel lonely.
"Grandma misspoke. Grandma will follow Shishi's lead and cultivate diligently, striving to live for several hundred more years to stay with you, okay?"
“That’s right! That’s what Grandmother thinks! And Little Mirror told me that those old fogies in the cultivation world have a lot of rare and precious treasures. I’ll go and snatch them from them one by one, and that will definitely allow Grandmother to live a long and healthy life.”
Fang Ruotang raised her chin, exuding extreme confidence.
The little mirror had told her that the cultivation world was an extremely unreasonable place, where the strong preyed on the weak. She could steal other people's treasures, but she could also be stolen from.
Murder for treasure is very common there.
After all, cultivating immortality is defying the heavens and seizing the creation of heaven and earth.
