Chapter 18 Chapter 18

The time came to half an hour ago.

Xuanyin took a bus to the First Special Zone.

The Fifth Special Zone was still a bit far from the First Special Zone. Xuanyin took out all her money, including the five thousand yuan given by Teacher Zhang Li, and used it. She took an express taxi and arrived here in the shortest time possible.

The Rongming Pagoda is also the most beautiful one in the night. Every eaves is shining with sunshine, all the way to the sky, as if stars have fallen to the earth.

Originally, the divine tower did not need to be guarded because no one could enter the tower to play around, but in order to show respect and reverence, the Federation still arranged for soldiers to stand guard here.

However, these people did not stop people from approaching, but everyone entering the tower needed to register. Therefore, there were still many people checking in at night, making it quite lively.

Xuanyin easily sneaked in. Under the cover of night, she climbed up the platform step by step and entered the interior of the divine tower. Just like in the dream world, the door behind her disappeared as soon as she entered.

It is said that this sacred tower can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time, and everyone who enters the main entrance of the sacred tower will come to a separate space.

Xuanyin looked around in the dim light, took off the dark coat wrapped around her, revealing the bright white skirt underneath, adjusted the hem of her skirt, and sat down on a cushion.

"Shenta, are you satisfied with my performance in the dream world last time?"

Her voice echoed slowly throughout the space. The divine tower did not respond, but Xuanyin did not care. She directly projected her newly made electronic model of He Xiangu.

A beautiful woman in flowing white clothes, holding a lotus and smiling, was projected into the space.

"I'm here today to get my Divine Clothes certified. Although the Divine Clothes certification process usually requires virtual certification in the Dream World first, the Dream World is closed now, so it's okay for me to come here directly, right?"

The divine tower remained silent. Xuanyin continued to herself, "Let me explain the logic behind this divine robe's powertrain. This mythical figure is called He Xiangu, also known as He Xiangu, after the lotus. In my native world, legend has it that she lived during the Tang Dynasty. She was ranked as one of the Eight Immortals during the Northern Song Dynasty for her healing of the common people and her ability to save lives. While she certainly can't be compared to ancient figures like Shiji Niangniang, she still has a wide following and is a popular figure.

"This time, I only want her healing ability. I hope that after possessing the spirit, I can obtain her ability to refine elixirs, so that I can refine many elixirs containing divine power in one breath. These elixirs should be able to treat the sequelae of possession and certain diseases that cannot be treated by human power. They should also have a long shelf life and cannot spoil if not used up in a day or two."

She kept on talking, and the Divine Tower finally couldn't stand it anymore. In the dim space, beams of light like ribbons of sunlight appeared again, and the Divine Tower suddenly lit up. A familiar deep voice rang out: "Immortal Pill? You call it just one? You have a big appetite!"

Xuanyin smiled: "Master Shenta, you finally paid attention to me."

Then he explained, "The term 'elixir' is just a term. If you want to call it a sugar pill, that's fine too. I know that most healing divine robes are used to instantly possess the spirit and treat the patient. They can't produce any medicine that can be taken slowly in the future. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many scientists who have been working hard to study how to store divine power and have been unsuccessful.

“But I want to heal myself.

"Look, when I possess a spirit, I get seriously injured and have to heal myself. As the patient, I also get seriously injured. Isn't that a waste of time? But if I possess a spirit once, I can rub several pills together and take them whenever I need them. There are no side effects. Wouldn't that be perfect?"

The Divine Tower said coldly, "That's a lot to ask for."

Xuanyin smiled and shifted her sitting position. "Everyone says the price paid by a divinely possessed warrior is high, but in reality, the price paid by a divinely possessed physician is even greater. Because the Divine Tower lends its divine power to protect humans from nightmare beasts, in this regard, the Divine Tower can be said to ask for almost nothing in return. The reason divinely possessed warriors suffer from illness and shorten their lifespans is simply because their bodies cannot withstand the divine power.

"But if divine power is used for healing, that's a serious problem. It would incur an additional cost. I've looked up information, and every divinely possessed physician has a short lifespan. Their prime working years are generally only a few years or a dozen years. Furthermore, even if a patient treated by a divinely possessed physician appears to have recovered at the time, other ailments will develop over time, and it's unlikely they'll die of old age."

She sighed, "As mortals, there's always a price to pay for getting something that doesn't belong to them."

Inside the divine tower, the light band paused, then flew around in disorder, as if a pair of eyes were examining Xuan Yin, and seemed surprised that she could see so much in such a short time.

"Since you knew this, why did you still come?"

"Because I know that you, God Tower, are a reasonable tower. If I sincerely present my requests and wishes to you, you will be accommodating."

"What if I don't compromise?"

Xuanyin thought for a moment and spread her hands. "If you really can't compromise, then there's nothing I can do. But then, the healing divine robe will be meaningless to me, and there's no need for me to produce this kind of divine robe."

She sighed pretentiously, "The elixir, it's gone just like that! A groundbreaking invention, a key to a new world of healing, a divine object that made a healing method seem so superior and not just any ordinary treatment. Sigh, imagine those suffering from sequelae or terminal illnesses. If they were lucky enough to get a elixir, how devoutly they would bow down and pray day and night..."

“That’s enough!”

Xuanyin stopped, opened her eyes, and looked ahead innocently.

…

The system was floating around anxiously outside the divine tower. The divine tower was too intimidating for it and it couldn't get close to it at all. It also didn't know what was happening to the host inside.

Suddenly, a white light descended upon the sacred tower.

Ah, that's——

Everyone around looked over and said, "Wow, this divine light is amazing. Is it the brightest today?"

"It's not just today, it hasn't been this bright this whole month."

"Which big boss produced this work?"

"Hurry up and check out the latest divine clothing from the Divine Clothing Store!"

People opened their light computers and logged into the Shenyi Store.

The Divine Clothing Library will include all the Divine Clothing in the Federation. Of course, if the owner of the Divine Clothing does not want others to know, they can make it anonymous or choose not to make it public.

The ranking of divine masters ranges from one star to seven stars, and divine clothes also have grades of low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and super-grade.

The latest ones are online here, and there will be the divine clothes newly collected by the Federation that day. There will be dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of pieces every day, but most of them are low-grade divine clothes.

At this time, people kept refreshing new divine clothes, but they were all low-quality and felt inadequate. Until more than ten minutes later, suddenly refreshed one:

Latest online——

Healing God Cloth: He Xiangu

Grade: Top Grade

Treatment: Oral elixir

Treatment scope: sequelae of possession and some difficult and complicated diseases

Side effects: None

People were stunned and mesmerized. What the hell! It was a top-grade divine garment that could actually cure the aftereffects of possession without any side effects!

What a magical function this is!

Not only that, it can also treat difficult and complicated diseases?

These are two completely different areas, okay?

And it can be taken orally! No divine clothing has ever been taken orally to function!

This is not the most shocking thing. The most shocking thing is that this newly-minted "He Xiangu" directly landed at the first place in the healing magic clothing category, squeezing out the previous first place!

The previous first place was described like this:

Healing God Cloth: *Spirit God Tree

Grade: Top Grade

Treatment method: Soothing with the power of wood spirit

Treatment scope: Relieve the sequelae of possession and certain old illnesses

Side effects: Unknown

Although one word was hidden, those who understand it will understand that this is Cheng Zixin’s new work "The Sacred Wood Spirit Tree". Everyone has seen this treatment range before and is looking forward to it, just waiting for her to officially announce it.

It is said that several famous divine doctors have already reserved this set of divine clothes, and I hope to get the authorization by then.

As a result, this one was squeezed out of the first place before it was officially announced. Although the one that came up is unknown, judging from the introduction, it is obviously stronger than the Wood Spirit Divine Tree!

The mere statement “Side effects: none” is enough to completely defeat it compared to “Side effects: unknown”.

"Holy crap, if this is true, it would be really awesome!"

"This is the introduction and ranking created by the Divine Tower. How could it be fake?"

"He Xiangu? Who exactly is He Xiangu? Why does she sound like a human?"

Speaking of people... everyone looked at each other. The Shiji Niangniang who was previously hotly discussed on the Internet but then disappeared seemed to be the name of a person.

Aren't these two the same kind?

"This is really...big news!"

People hurriedly spread the news to their relatives and friends, and at the same time, they just stared at the sacred tower, wanting to see who came out of the tower.

The troops guarding the divine tower blocked the surrounding area and immediately reported it.

However, at this time, Xuanyin had already left the range of the divine tower.

After walking a long way down the mountain, Xuanyin finally stopped and leaned against a big tree to catch her breath.

The system hovered beside Xuanyin, noticing her slightly unsteady steps, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay. After being possessed by a spirit, it's inevitable that there will be some discomfort."

Xuanyin wiped the sweat off her face. The good condition she was in when she came out was almost gone now.

I have to say, the damage done by the Attached God is really huge, and all my training these days is almost in vain.

"So, how did you convince the Divine Tower? It actually approved this Divine Cloth, and it's the version without side effects."

Suddenly remembering something, the system hurriedly asked, "You won't transfer the side effects of the elixir to yourself, right? For example, when you possess He Xiangu, the damage you suffer will be even greater!"

Xuanyin pulled the belt that had drifted behind her back to the front and said, "That's not the case."

The system scanned her facial expressions, analyzed them, and concluded: "You're lying! Your micro-expressions tell me you're lying!"

Xuanyin sighed. This system had indeed become smarter. She pinched her pinky finger and said, "It's just a little bit more, but I designed He Xiangu to be a relatively fragile character, so the pressure of possessing a spirit isn't that great. Even with this little bit of damage, overall, it's still acceptable."

The system light ball was so angry that it was round. "I don't understand. This will not benefit you."

Xuanyin had rested enough and continued walking forward: "How can it not be beneficial? My mental strength can naturally recover on its own, and I have special body-refining techniques. As long as I am given time, I can digest the aftereffects of the possession myself. And elixirs like this can instantly restore the state in an emergency. It can save lives."

She opened her palms, and three lotus seed-shaped beads appeared in her palms, shining brightly and spinning on their own.

System: "Wow! It seems very powerful. Can it really cure many diseases?"

"For serious sequelae and illnesses like those caused by possession, one pill is certainly not enough; you'd need to take multiple pills. But for milder cases, one pill would be enough."

"Then why don't you take one now to recover?"

Xuanyin paused and closed her hands. Miraculously, the three lotus seeds disappeared.

system:"?"

Xuanyin coughed and said, "I can't eat it yet. These lotus seeds, no, these elixirs, haven't been consecrated yet."

"What?"

"That is, whoever wants to eat this must pray to the pagoda every night, fast, and bathe with sincerity for seven consecutive nights. Only then will this thing gradually transform from a lotus seed into an elixir. Only then will it be effective if eaten."

The system was speechless: "...Is this your design?"

Xuanyin poked it. "How is that possible? How could I be that perverted? This is a setup by the divine tower itself. If there's even a little insincerity or perfunctoriness along the way, it will collapse and the elixir will turn into a sugar pill."

The system was still speechless, and after a long while it said, "Taking medicine isn't easy either."

"Who says it's not true? But if you want to eat the elixir, you have to pay something. Now there are no side effects, and just asking people to show a little sincerity is already a special favor from the Divine Tower."

The system thought for a moment: "But I think some people might be willing to pay a price."

Not everyone can pray for seven days.

Xuanyin choked and nodded: "...You are right."

The Cheng family manor can be seen faintly in the distance.

Xuanyin walked over steadily, the system floating in front of her. "However, I still don't understand why you have to do this certification at this time? You've even messed up your status. What if a fight breaks out later?"

It's really worried about conflict.

"Why are you always worried about me taking action? Am I the kind of impulsive and violent person?"

Xuanyin opened the Divine Clothing Library and showed the system the rankings: "Isn't the result good now? Cheng Zixin dares to be so high and mighty in front of me, bullying me. She's just relying on her status as a genius Divine Clothing designer. I will defeat her in the field that she's most proud of.

"She should have realized by now that her divine clothing has been outshined by someone else, and she will definitely not bother to do anything else. I can then successfully take the original body's mother and brother away."

"After you pick them up, how are you going to get along with them?"

Xuanyin turned off the light brain: "The original mother is very worried about her. After all, I took over someone else's daughter's body. I want to give her an elixir to cure her illness. I haven't thought about anything else yet."

In her opinion, it would be best to completely sever ties, but this seemed a bit cruel for a mother.

No matter what to do, you still have to see the person first, know who he is, and then make a decision.

She walked towards the Cheng family manor with a relaxed expression, was stopped at the door, and told her identity.

"You...you are Miss Xuanyin?"

The gatekeeper was stunned. Xuanyin's dress today was very different from her previous appearance. She had never behaved in such a bold and confident manner before.

It's like a different person.

He came back to his senses and said, "Please come in, please come in. The eldest lady has instructed that you should go to the birthday banquet hall immediately when you arrive."

Xuanyin asked, "Where are my mother and brother?"

"They are also in the birthday banquet hall."

Xuanyin frowned. She was not very willing to show up in front of so many people.

At this moment, a green divine light descended.

"Ah, is that the young lady possessed by a spirit?"

"Today, the young lady is going to show off her most impressive work. I'm really looking forward to it."

"The number one designer of divine clothing in the Federation is not just talk."

Someone was looking at Xuanyin while speaking, and his eyes were full of arrogance and condescension, as if to say, who are you in front of our young lady?

Xuanyin was speechless. Why was the news so delayed here?

By now, the news that He Xiangu has surpassed Cheng Zixin to become the number one in the healing magic clothing should be flying all over the Internet, right?

However, since people here are busy with the birthday party, it is understandable that the internet speed is a bit slow.

She glanced at the other person lightly, and the other person was frightened and quickly retracted his provocative look.

Xuanyin looked at the green light. In the night, the green light was quite thick and wispy, as gorgeous as the aurora.

Cheng Zixin's reputation is not in vain, she is indeed quite capable.

She asked, "The place where the divine power descended is also in the birthday banquet hall?"

"Yes."

Xuanyin walked towards that place.

The man who was given the sidelong glance patted his chest and muttered in fear, "Was it an illusion? Why did I feel that look just now was a bit scary?

Xuanyin released her mental power to listen to the movement over there even before she reached the birthday banquet hall.

There were a lot of people and the atmosphere was lively, everyone was praising Cheng Zixin.

Hmm? Cheng Zixin is going to give someone on-site treatment?

Hmm? The old man started chatting. Could it be that the person Cheng Zixin wanted to treat was...

Hmmm? The guests started to belittle and criticize the original body?

So the person Cheng Zixin wants to treat is really the original body's mother?

In front of so many people, is she using Cheng's mother as a tool to show her love and ability?

Didn’t you hear that Cheng’s mother refused?

Xuanyin laughed angrily, quickened her pace, and strode forward like a gust of wind.

The system saw that things were not going well and quickly flew over to catch up: "Calm down! Calm down!"

Because many people from the military and government departments came, there were many people guarding outside the birthday banquet hall. When they saw Xuanyin rushing in, they were all stunned, but when they saw Xuanyin followed by the Cheng family, they thought that this should be a guest, so they did not stop her.

So Xuanyin rushed directly to the door of the hall and arrived at the moment when Cheng Zixin was about to stab the sapling into Cheng's mother's forehead.

"stop!"

She waved her hand, and her mental power wrapped around a longevity pendant on the curtain at the door and flew directly towards Cheng Zixin.

Swish!

The sapling in Cheng Zixin's hand was cut in half like cutting vegetables, and her strength was interrupted. She staggered back several steps, and her face felt a slight stinging pain. When she touched her cheek, there was blood!

Cheng Zixin's mother, Madam Cheng, had been sitting in her seat gracefully and elegantly, watching from afar as Cheng Zixin became the center of attention, a smile of decency and pride on her face. Upon seeing this sudden change, her expression changed drastically, and she stood up: "Xin'er!"

The other people in the Cheng family were also shocked. A flash of ruthlessness and caution crossed Old Master Cheng's face. Who was acting wildly at his birthday party!

The guests also looked towards the door. Who was this person? Where did he come from to disrupt the party?

Then they saw a girl in a white dress walk in.

Her steps were neither fast nor hurried, and were even very steady, but she gave people an inexplicable sense of aura.

The wind blew in from outside, lifting her skirt, and she looked as if she had broken down the door and rushed in.

She glanced around coldly. Seeing so many people staring at her, she was not at all nervous. Even when she met the eyes of some big shots, she did not flinch at all.

This magnanimity and courage alone made the people present feel a little shocked and curious.

Finally, she set her sights on Cheng Zixin.

"Using my mother as a test subject for fame, Cheng Zixin, have you asked for my opinion?"

Cheng Zixin covered her face and looked at her in disbelief. Cheng Xuanyin?!

She looked at Xuanyin, there was no one else. Could it be that she was the one who hurt her just now?

She looked behind her and saw a longevity pendant deeply embedded in a pillar not far away. How much power must it have!

"Cheng Xuanyin! Why is it you?!"

The guests were immediately excited.

"Is this Cheng Xuanyin?"

"It's different from what was rumored!"

"What did she use to hit me just now? She actually interrupted Cheng Zixin's treatment and scratched her face!"

"The sapling was directly broken. This is a top-grade divine robe that is gathering power and is difficult to interrupt. This strength is extraordinary!"

"How did the rumor that this guy is useless come about? At least his appearance and aura are extraordinary!"

Mother Cheng stood up in a daze, looking at the person standing there with a cold face, and she simply couldn't recognize him.

Is this his daughter? She's changed so much after not seeing her for three years?

In a trance, she seemed to see her husband when he was still alive.

Cheng Shuhui also looked at Xuanyin as if he had seen a ghost.

The system yelled beside Xuanyin, "It's over, it's over. Your original image was that of a coward who accepted everything. You've changed so much! This step is so powerful that it's practically a rip on your hips. I told you to calm down!"

Xuanyin ignored the system and walked towards Cheng's mother. She looked at her carefully, making sure that Cheng Zixin had not touched her yet. She felt relieved and hesitated for a moment before calling out, "Mother."

Cheng's mother's tears fell immediately. She took Xuanyin's hand and rubbed it, then touched Xuanyin's face: "Yinyin! You are Yinyin! I haven't seen you for three years, and you have grown so much!"

Xuanyin endured the discomfort and did not avoid her. Facing such a tearful, excited and relieved mother, it seemed a bit hurtful to avoid her.

Mrs. Cheng also rushed over and pulled Cheng Zixin to look at her face anxiously. There was a scratch on her left cheek, but fortunately the wound was not deep.

She was fuming, but considering the presence of others, she suppressed her anger and said, "Xuanyin, how could you hurt your sister? Xin'er was treating your mother, and not only were you ungrateful, you actually hurt her! Do you know how dangerous it is for a Spirit Master to be interrupted while accumulating energy? You're going too far!"

Mother Cheng also immediately protected Xuanyin behind her: "Madam..."

Cheng Shuhui immediately frowned and was about to step forward to stand in front of his mother.

Xuanyin was quicker than him. She pulled Cheng's mother behind her. She looked at Madam Cheng, then at Cheng Zixin. "Since you know it's dangerous to be interrupted while charging, you shouldn't treat people in public. If you dare to treat in such an occasion, you should at least be prepared and confident that you won't be interrupted."

Mrs. Cheng choked and raised her voice again: "You are the one who caused the trouble, and you think you are right!"

"Of course I'm right!" Xuan Yin interrupted her with a more powerful voice.

She looked at Cheng Zixin, who was still in a trance state with leaves growing on her skin, and said, "I still have a lot of truths.

"Ms. Cheng Zixin, if I remember correctly, your Wood Spirit Sacred Tree was only successfully authenticated a few days ago."

Xuanyin stood upright, looking Cheng Zixin up and down, her eyes passing over her rough and messy hair that looked like aerial roots, and the skin on her neck and the back of her hands covered with slightly wrinkled bark, a hint of disgust flashing across her face.

Such a savage-like appearance has neither beauty nor momentum. How can these people praise it?

"You haven't used this to heal anyone before today, have you? If you had, since you're someone who attracts a lot of attention, I imagine that any news of a new divine garment possessing a spirit wouldn't go unnoticed. So, today is the first time you've used this divine garment to possess a spirit, right?"

Cheng Zixin was stunned. Her mind was a little confused, and she had just been interrupted, so her mental strength was a little unstable. For a moment, she didn't know why Cheng Xuanyin asked this.

But out of caution, she didn't answer directly: "What do you mean?"

"What do you mean? What I mean is that this divine garment has not been clinically validated. No matter how confident and certain you are, that's your own business. If you find a volunteer to test the divine garment, I have nothing to say. But you use my mother as a test subject. Where is your medical ethics? If something happens to my mother, can you bear the consequences?"

Cheng Zixin choked. She was certainly confident enough that she would not fail, but when Xuanyin asked her this, she was unable to answer for a moment.

Xuan Yin didn't give her a chance to speak, and said coldly, "That's the first point. Secondly, do you understand my mother's physical condition? Have you seen her medical records? How many treatment courses did you prescribe for her? How many times and how long each course would take? Do you have any idea of ​​that?"

Cheng Zixin opened her mouth but couldn't say anything. She really had no plan.

"See, you really don't have a concrete plan. So what's your reason for rushing into treating her? Is it because of your fame? Or is it because of your thick skin?"

Cheng Zixin's face flushed: "I didn't!"

Xuanyin ignored her and continued, "Thirdly, my mother just arrived at the capital planet this afternoon, and she's only been at the manor for a few hours. Can't you see how pale her face is, and how blue her lips are? Can't you see how she's forcing herself to attend this birthday party? How worried are you about my mother? You don't even give her time to rest, and you're so impatient to treat her."

She stared at Cheng Zixin, put on a smile, and said mockingly, "You are so thoughtful, I really have to thank you very much!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people present finally couldn't help but whisper to each other.

There were also many psychic doctors at the scene, and they all knew that when using divine power to treat people, one must be very careful and cautious and be well prepared.

One of the preparations is that the patient should maintain the best possible condition. Being tired and rushed is indeed not a good time for treatment.

But just now, they didn't even realize this. Now looking at Cheng's mother, she really seemed to have difficulty standing.

The way they looked at Cheng Zixin became strange.

They are outsiders and don't know, nor will they carefully observe a stranger, but Cheng Zixin keeps calling her aunt, so how could she not know about this aunt's physical condition?

Either she really doesn't understand, which means her so-called filial piety is fake, or she understands but pretends not to understand, which means she is just putting on a show and disregarding the other person's safety, which is even more hateful.

They instantly felt like their filters were shattered. Cheng Zixin turned out to be such a person.

Cheng Zixin felt like a thorn in her back, her hands and feet were stiff, and she had never imagined that things would develop to this point.

She looked at Xuanyin suddenly, but after meeting her eyes, she was speechless.

What a pair of eyes these were, deep, cold, shrouded in a faint disdain and contempt as light as clouds, and, as if born with arrogance.

Her hair stood on end instantly. This wasn't Cheng Xuanyin! How could this be Cheng Xuanyin?

She took a step back suddenly: "You, you are not..."

The system lay on Xuanyin's head and wailed: "Character setting! Your character setting!"

Xuanyin responded consciously: "Is the personality setting important? The task you gave me didn't require me to follow the personality setting of my original body."

If it were based on the original body's personality, this mission would be impossible to complete.

"But you've changed so much in a short time. Look, Cheng Zixin is already suspicious!"

"No, she wasn't suspicious, but shocked. Shocked that I was hiding my true abilities, shocked that I could actually make her speechless."

The original image was indeed one of enduring humiliation and lacking in ability, so it is a bit strange that the sudden change was so drastic.

But the interesting thing is that the original body had been wandering outside for more than ten years, and no one has investigated it in detail during this period.

In the three years since she came back, she has been living in the school dormitory and has had little contact with the Cheng family. The two people she has had a little more contact with are Wen Yan and Cheng Ziqi, but one of them never even looks at her, and the other only enjoys bullying her.

Therefore, no one dares to say that they truly understand the original body. All they know is the inherent, stereotyped image of Cheng Xuanyin that they think she has.

So, Cheng Xuanyin was blinded by love in the past, lowered herself to pursue someone, made herself extremely embarrassed, and now she has come to her senses, is there a problem with this?

The only flaw was that she was injured before, and the mental strength test result in the hospital showed that it had dropped to D level, but she could easily tamper with her mental strength.

Can I learn from my mistakes and have an epiphany? Can I hide my shortcomings all along? My D-rank after being injured was only temporary, can I recover now?

The system hugged its fat body and continued to howl: "But there are many big guys here. Have you forgotten that the identity of Niangniang Shiji is being tracked down? Do you think they will be suspicious of you after you have changed so much?"

Xuanyin: "If they can't even detect your existence, what does it matter if they doubt you?"

System: I feel like “…t” has been implied, but there is no evidence.

...No, the host's personality is so arrogant?

The big guys present were indeed all looking at Xuan Yin, a young junior who was slightly heard of in the circle but not having a good reputation. However, she was able to make Cheng Zixin, the national genius, speechless as soon as she appeared on the stage.

The most important thing is that every sentence is reasonable and powerful, which is really unexpected.

Tang Yekun approached Yan Wei and said, "This Cheng family drama is getting more and more interesting."

Then he shook his head and said, "With such a descendant in the Cheng family, if her ability is not too weak, the Cheng family can still prosper for decades under her leadership."

However, Cheng Zixin's recent performances have been very subpar. Today's performance was really too crude and clumsy.

No matter how strong she is, she is still marked as a cross in the eyes of some people.

The Cheng family, who supported her performance, also gave people an indescribable sense of shabbyness.

Yan Wei's gaze shifted from Cheng Zixin's movement of taking a step back at Xuan Yin to the longevity plaque on the pillar. He narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully, "It's hard to say whether this person is strong or not."

This time, the Cheng family messed up.

Old Master Cheng sat in his seat with a gloomy face, looking at everyone's reactions, especially the meaningful looks from Yan Wei and others, and his heart sank.

We can’t let Cheng Xuanyin continue talking!

He tried to smooth things over: "Xuanyin, Xin'er is also worried about your mother and is anxious for a moment. After all, your mother hasn't had an easy time these past few years."

A woman has a son and a daughter, and her sons and daughters are now adults, but has a hard time. Whose fault is it?

He almost bluntly told Cheng Shuhui that he was incompetent and incompetent, and that Cheng Xuanyin only cared about herself and ignored her mother.

Xuanyin faced him. She was eighty years old, but still full of energy and vigor. Her hair was not even gray at all. She was actually a seven-star spirit-possessing master.

It’s obvious that he has never had a proper spirit-possession battle, otherwise how could the spirit-possession master still be in such good shape at this age?

She bowed slightly, trying to be polite. "Mr. Cheng, you are eighty years old, but you are still so charming. I envy you."

I don't know who chuckled, but even a deaf person could hear the sarcasm in the words.

However, Mr. Cheng's condition is indeed the reason why he has been criticized.

Otherwise, he was a lieutenant general before his retirement. After retirement, he should have been promoted to the title of honorary general, but the military did not do so. This actually explains some problems.

Mr. Cheng's smile froze instantly. Did Cheng Xuanyin get bit by a firecracker? The moment he turned around, the firepower shifted towards him.

His face darkened, and the corners of his mouth wrinkled a few times. "Your grandfather is my dearest cousin. Ever since you came home three years ago, you have always called me grandpa. Why don't you call me that now?"

It means that Xuanyin is two-faced, but now she has drawn a clear line between them. She used to lick people enthusiastically.

Xuanyin said slowly, "I was ignorant before and thought you were my real grandfather. Now I know that you are not that close. Besides, my family is now a branch of the Cheng family. If I continue to call you grandpa, it would be too high for me to climb up the social ladder.

"and--

She raised her voice and said, "Before, I was quite close to the Cheng family because of the marriage between the Cheng and Wen families. Now that the engagement has been cancelled, it is not appropriate for me to continue staying in the Cheng family. I will later settle all the money the Cheng family has spent on me over the past three years and return it one by one."

As she spoke, she turned around and asked Cheng's mother: "Mom, what do you think?"

Mother Cheng naturally nodded repeatedly: "It's up to you to decide."

Anyway, my family has no relationship with the Cheng family anymore, and we haven't received any help over the years.

In the past, when her son was young, she would worry about his future and hoped to get help from the Cheng family, but after so many years, she has seen through it.

You are of no use to me, so the Cheng family won't even look at you.

On the contrary, because the current Mr. Cheng took over the Cheng family after the death of his husband and father-in-law, he hopes more than anyone else that his family will no longer appear in public.

She wanted to stay away from the Cheng family, and now her daughter also thought so, which made her very surprised.

As she spoke, she also stepped forward and thanked Mr. Cheng and the rest of the Cheng family: "Thank you for taking care of Yinyin for the past three years."

Because she was in poor health, Cheng Shuhui only reported good news to her and not bad news, so she really thought that Cheng Xuanyin had a good life in the past three years.

Of course, she also realized today that if the Cheng family had really been good to their daughter, this incident would not have happened.

She would not think that her daughter was heartless, but would only think that this family had evil intentions and was sweet-mouthed but treacherous.

But superficial courtesy still needs to be observed.

Xuanyin helped her up and said to Old Master Cheng, "We've already celebrated your birthday, so we won't stay for the banquet. We'll be leaving now."

Having said that, he supported Cheng's mother and was about to leave.

Old Master Cheng was so angry that his face turned blue, but he didn't say anything. The other people in the Cheng family didn't know whether they should keep the person.

Stay, this farce is already big enough. If Cheng Xuanyin says something else, should the birthday party continue?

Don't keep him. He was slapped in the face, and he didn't get back at all. He was just allowed to leave like this with so many people watching. It would not look good on his face.

But if the Cheng family members don't speak up, others will stand up and speak for them.

A middle-aged man stood up and frowned, shouting, "Stop! Today is Elder Cheng's eightieth birthday. You, the younger generation, are so disrespectful and are causing a scene at the banquet. It's truly intolerable. Major General Yan, are you not going to do anything about it?"

Xuanyin stopped and Cheng's mother held her hand worriedly. Xuanyin patted the back of her hand soothingly and turned to look.

The middle-aged man who was speaking was dressed in a formal suit and tie, with his neck straight and his brows twisted into a "川" shape. He looked like a rigid leader training a newcomer, and his eyes were full of disgust when he looked at Xuan Yin.

And the Major General Yan he was talking about... Xuanyin followed the gazes of the others and saw an officer in a neatly dressed uniform.

He looked quite young, with a handsome and strong face, eyes as sharp as knives, and he was looking at himself at that moment.

At just one glance, she knew that the other person was not an ordinary person, and seemed to be somewhat interested in her.

It wasn't the kind of interest between men and women, but rather an exploration of her. His eyes were almost like rays.

Xuanyin looked at the two of them and asked, "So, who wants to teach me a lesson, you, uncle, or Major General Yan?"

Everyone looked at Yan Wei.

Yan Wei remained unmoved: "This is the Cheng family's internal affairs, it is not convenient for the military to interfere."

The Cheng family's expectant eyes suddenly cooled down, and all the military personnel present were motionless after hearing this, looking at their noses and their hearts, as if they did not exist.

The middle-aged man felt a little embarrassed and looked at Tang Yekun expectantly.

Apart from Yan Wei, he was the most powerful person present.

Tang Yekun smiled and said, "I'm just here to celebrate your birthday on behalf of the Security Bureau. As for anything else..." He spread his hands, his meaning was clear.

The middle-aged man felt even more embarrassed. He looked at the others, but they all avoided his gaze. Just kidding, Yan and Tang had already expressed their opinions, so how could they still force their way out?

Do you think you are better than both of them?

Besides, all the members of the Cheng family are fine, and the birthday boy is sitting peacefully. It is not the turn of outsiders to worry about the Cheng family.

Xuanyin looked around, then looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Excuse me, uncle, how do you want to manage me?"

She looked at Mr. Cheng again: "Or, Mr. Cheng, how do you want to control me through this uncle?"

Mr. Cheng could no longer remain silent.

His chest heaved, and he felt as if he had aged ten years in anger, finally looking like an octogenarian.

He forced a smile and said, "It's late. My niece-in-law and the two children should stay at the manor for one night. If there are any misunderstandings, we can talk about it tomorrow."

He didn't even dare to keep anyone at the birthday party, he just wanted to turn the page quickly.

Xuanyin wanted to say something, but Cheng's mother pulled her back.

After all, the other person is an elder. Even if they are not relatives, he is still an eighty-year-old man. It is not a good look to contradict him again and again.

Xuanyin understood what she meant and didn't say anything else. After all, once she left the house, it would be up to her to decide whether to go or stay, right?

She and Cheng Shuhui supported Cheng's mother out on either side, but just as they stepped over the threshold, they suddenly felt a fluctuation of divine power, and then a figure rushed out from the shadows on the side.

Her eyes twitched, and she pushed Cheng's mother towards Cheng Shuhui, pushing them both back into the door.

The next moment, the figure rushed in front of him.

"Cheng Xuanyin, I'll kill you!"

Cheng Ziqi had a ferocious look on his face, both of his arms had become mechanical arms, and there was a pair of blue translucent energy wings on his shoulders. He was obviously in a state of possession, and his whole body was emitting dark blue divine power fluctuations.

The wings flapped and the speed was astonishing.

Xuanyin only had time to take half a step back before the opponent's mechanical fist came at her. She dodged sideways and the fist brushed past her face. The divine power fluctuations on it made her entire face hurt, as if the skin was about to be torn off.

She immediately used her mental strength to resist, while holding onto the opponent's mechanical arm and throwing him into the yard with all her strength. Otherwise, the distance was too close and his divine power would hurt Cheng's mother and the others.

The people in the hall were in an uproar, and those who reacted quickly stood up.

Yan Wei was the fastest. He flashed behind Cheng's mother and the other two, holding them up. His mental power instantly formed a wall to block the fluctuations of divine power from outside.

Xuanyin threw Cheng Ziqi into the yard. Cheng Ziqi didn't expect her to be so strong and was thrown out without control.

But he reacted quickly, and with his mechanical arm he grabbed her and flew into the air.

He wanted to throw her to death! Let's see if she can be so crazy in heaven!

The two of them rushed up into the sky.

Mother Cheng was so frightened that she almost died: "Yinyin!"

Yan Wei frowned and looked at the sky. He realized that Cheng Ziqi did have murderous intentions. He immediately took out a divine clothing buckle and was about to press it.

The next moment, Cheng Ziqi's scream was heard from the air.

"Ah!!!!!" It was truly a heart-wrenching, inhumane, and earth-shattering scream.

Yan Wei's hands couldn't help but tremble.

Everyone else rushed out of the hall: "What's going on!"

They looked up and saw two people tumbling in the sky, one emitting dark blue divine power, and the other was dazzling white, with a snow-white skirt like a butterfly blooming in the night.

Others: "Hurry up and save him!"

Cheng's mother also quickly begged everyone to save people.

Yan Wei did not move immediately. He felt something was wrong. It seemed that Cheng Ziqi was not the one who had the upper hand.

However, Cheng Ziqi can fly, but Cheng Xuanyin cannot, and she has no divine power to rely on. If she continues, she will definitely suffer, so he still pressed the buttons of the divine clothes.

A cloud of black smoke spread out and enveloped him.

But he hadn't finished possessing the spirit yet. With another scream from Cheng Ziqi, there was a loud splash, as if it was raining. People felt like they were splashed in the face, and their faces were wet and warm.

I touched it, and damn, it was blood!

Then, a man fell from the air and landed heavily in the yard, lying motionless like a corpse.

Everyone:!!!

Mother Cheng's eyes were bloodshot and she was about to rush over: "Yin Yin!"

But he stopped halfway through. Something is wrong. This is not white clothes.

Everyone raised their heads again and saw the white figure still in the sky.

Xuanyin was holding something in her hand. On top of that thing were blue translucent wings, which slowed down her descent.

The white skirt spread out in the air, with bright red bloodstains on it, like red plum blossoms blooming on a winter night.

The golden ribbon on her shoulders fluttered in the wind, her hair was all loose and dancing in the strong wind, her blood-stained face was expressionless, beautiful and dazzling.

Everyone looked at her in amazement.

She is still in the sky, and the one that fell is...

With a bang, Xuanyin fell heavily to the ground, half-knelt down without standing firmly, and the dust around her was shaken several meters away.

There was silence for two full seconds.

Mother Cheng was the first to react and rushed over: "Yinyin!"

Xuanyin coughed out a breath, with a slight sweet and fishy taste in her throat, but she forced herself to hold it back. She slowly stood up, her body swaying a little.

The clothes on her right arm were burned to pieces by the divine power, and her entire palm and forearm were covered in blood and flesh. She was tightly holding a thick mechanical arm in her hand.

Xuanyin shook her head slightly at Cheng's mother, indicating that she was fine, then looked down at what she was holding.

She frowned, and tore the mechanical arm off her hand with force, tearing off a piece of flesh, and then threw it in front of Cheng Zixin: "Your order has arrived, you can use your divine power to treat your brother."

Everyone looked and saw that as the divine power dissipated, the mechanical arm gradually turned into the shape of a human hand.

This is... Cheng Ziqi's hand? !

She actually tore off Cheng Ziqi's arm and used it as her parachute!!!
