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...
Fan looked at Rong Xing, who wanted to stand on his head with Fang Ruotang, and was very confused. But seeing how anxious Fang Ruotang was, he decided to speak up as a second choice.
“Stand behind me.”
Rong Xing didn't say anything, and helped Fang Ruotang stand on his back.
Fan leaped up and quickly soared into the clouds.
【Wuxia, I'm sorry, something's happened at the Prime Minister's residence. I have to go there immediately. Go find the materials for scar removal first. I'll come back to you after I've dealt with the matter at the Prime Minister's residence.】
Ye Wuxia was stunned for a moment, her joy replaced by worry.
[Why bother looking for scar removal materials? A few scars are nothing to me, a grown man. I'm heading back to Dayong right now. See you there!]
He happily went to find scar removal materials because Fang Ruotang cared for him and accompanied him, but the current situation was special.
The situation at the Prime Minister's residence is unclear, and there may be danger to his life. Why would he possibly go looking for materials to remove scars? He's not crazy.
Gu Yanjin and the others overheard the conversation. Without saying a word, they changed direction and headed towards Dayong. At the same time, their faces were extremely grim.
No one understood better than them what Fang Ruotang meant to her family.
If something were to happen to someone from the Prime Minister's residence, they dared not imagine what Fang Ruotang would become, or whether they could accept it.
The small mirror projected the situation of the Prime Minister's residence into Fang Ruotang's mind.
Looking at the familiar faces in the Prime Minister's residence, trembling under the protective shield, Fang Ruotang felt extremely angry.
Several people were standing in the air above the Prime Minister's residence.
Fang Ruotang counted and found there were as many as seven people.
Upon closer inspection, she saw that her seventh brother, Fang Zhili, was being held in one of the people's hands and being lifted up in mid-air like a chick.
"Knowing etiquette..."
Fang Ruotang couldn't help but shout it out, even though the other person couldn't possibly hear her.
However, below the Prime Minister's residence, the Prime Minister and his family were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, shouting into the sky.
"What exactly do you want to do? Release my son at once!" Madam Shu was frantic.
She has three children. Her eldest and second daughters have better futures and are not around. Only her youngest son is by her side.
Even so, he only returned after a ten-day break and a school holiday.
But today, suddenly some cultivators attacked their Prime Minister's residence, and they even grabbed Fang Zhili.
What do you want?
Prime Minister Fang suppressed his anger, knowing that these people were definitely after Xiao Liu.
During this period of cultivation, he has reached the third level of Qi Refining and has long since shed his youthful appearance. Now, apart from his eyes that have been weathered by time, no one would guess his true age just by looking at his appearance.
He spent his days attending court and receiving the envy of his colleagues, living a happy life. Just when he thought he would continue to be happy like this, reality dealt him a heavy blow.
Even through the protective barrier set up by Xiao Liu, he could sense the strength of this group, so he ordered his men to keep an eye on Shu Shi, who was desperately trying to break out.
The situation is unclear. If the Shu family rushes out, they will either die or be captured alive, and Xiao Liu will be even more at the mercy of others.
"Call Fang Ruotang out."
She's not here.
"I know, but you'll definitely be able to contact her! Call her over."
Prime Minister Fang's eyes flickered, but he remained silent.
It wasn't that he disregarded his grandson's life and wanted to protect Xiao Liu from coming; rather, he knew that Xiao Liu must already know that something had happened at the Prime Minister's residence.
After all, Xiao Liu had told him before that if anyone attacked the Prime Minister's residence, she would know and rush back immediately.
Upon hearing that Fang Ruotang was to be brought back, Madam Shu, who had been shouting and yelling just moments before, calmed down considerably.
She wasn't blind; she saw the seven people suspended in mid-air making their moves, a flurry of sparks and lightning.
"Xiao Liu, is she capable?"
Shu was worried about her son, but she didn't want her daughter to come back and die in vain.
Moreover, she knew her daughter was definitely on her way back, so she became even more anxious, worried that if something happened to her son, her daughter would also be caught in the crossfire.
Second Master Fang embraced Madam Shu.
"We should trust Xiao Liu. Besides, the initiative is not in our hands right now. Even if we don't let her come, she will definitely come anyway."
How could I not know my own daughter?
So when the incident happened, they had a communication jade to contact Fang Ruotang, but no one used it because they knew that no matter what they said, they couldn't influence Fang Ruotang's decision.
Instead of taking any action, we should simply prolong the negotiation process and buy more time for Fang Zhili.
As long as Fang Ruotang doesn't show up, Fang Zhili will definitely not be in any danger.
They didn't contact Fang Ruotang, but Fang Ruotang took the initiative to contact them.
After learning about the situation from the small mirror, Fang Ruotang immediately contacted Prime Minister Fang.
The sound transmission jade was slightly hot and flickered.
Prime Minister Fang pressed down gently.
He was afraid that his granddaughter wouldn't be able to contact him if she wanted to.
Even though Fang Ruotang gave him a storage bag, he always kept the communication jade close to his body, wearing it on his chest. Almost everyone in the Prime Minister's mansion did the same.
"Grandfather, answer it! Answer it!"
Fang Ruotang was extremely anxious, listening to Prime Minister Fang still trying to negotiate with the other party.
The seven men continued their relentless attack on the protective shield.
Fang Ruotang then switched to contacting Second Master Fang.
Master Fang wore the communication jade as a pendant, hanging it directly on his waist, so even the seven people who attacked the Prime Minister's residence saw its reaction.
Master Fang tried to stop him, but it was too late.
“Tell her to come here right now, or I’ll kill you all.”
It was only a matter of time before the shield was breached.
Prime Minister Fang looked at Second Master Fang, signaling him to connect the communication jade.
As soon as the communication jade was established, Fang Ruotang's voice immediately rang out from it.
"Don't make things difficult for my family. On my way here, you just wanted to break through your cultivation level, and I helped you. But if you dare to harm my family, you will never be able to break through in your lifetime."
Fang Ruotang threatened him fiercely.
The seven people listened to it as a joke.
One of them said dismissively, "Alright, alright, come over here quickly. As long as you help the seven of us break through our cultivation levels, we will never make things difficult for your family."
"Alright, I'm on the Cloud Deep Continent, heading towards the Great Yong. I'll be right there. You're not allowed to kill anyone, or I'll fight you to the death, and no one will get away with it."
Fang Ruotang noticed that soldiers were rushing towards the Prime Minister's residence.
The disciples of Tianyi Sect had arrived earlier.
She was extremely anxious.
If these people go up there, wouldn't it be like delivering vegetables to someone else?
For cultivators in the Tribulation Transcending stage, killing these people is simpler than crushing an ant; it's just a matter of waving a sleeve.
"Tsk! Someone's going to their death, can I stop them?"
The flippant voice on the other end showed they didn't care about human lives at all.
Fang Ruotang immediately instructed Cui Shixu to contact the Empress and have the soldiers and civilians withdraw. She also urgently contacted Elder Wu, instructing him to immediately lead all his disciples to evacuate.
She saw Elder Wu at the front of the line, but Elder Wu was only at the Nascent Soul stage. Compared to a Tribulation Transcending stage expert, he was no match for him.
