Chapter 258 Immortal Bone
Of course Liu Ruyun would not agree. This was the child she had raised with great difficulty. The child took her surname Liu and belonged to the Liu family.
What qualifications does Wen Ke have to snatch Xiao Nian away from her?
Besides, Xiao Nian is so ill now. If this person doesn’t treat the child properly, where does he want to take Xiao Nian?
Under Liu Ruyun's questioning, Wen Ke had to tell her the truth.
It turned out that the monk who came to visit had the ability to take away other people's spiritual roots and plant them in other people.
Xiao Nian just happened to have spiritual roots. As long as they peeled off the spiritual roots from her completely and planted them in Xiao Feng, their son could become a cultivator!
Xiao Nian has a very good spiritual root. If he practices well, he may be able to reach the Nascent Soul stage or the Divine Transformation stage in the future.
As long as their children can become powerful monks, the Wen family's life in Cangzhen Castle will be better.
As for why he didn't let the cultivator plant the spiritual roots in himself, Wen Ke thought very clearly that he was old and his bones had already grown well.
If he were to practice, it would probably be a waste of this excellent spiritual root.
If Wen Feng wasn't his only child, Wen Ke would choose other younger offspring to have this opportunity.
However, although his plan was very good, he did not expect that Liu Ruyun would not agree at all.
Not only that, after learning that Wen Ke insisted on sacrificing Xiao Nian, she found the Chen family, who had a long-standing friendship with the Liu family, and used up her last bit of favor to get the Chen family to help her and Wen Ke get divorced.
After that, she moved out of the Wen family with Xiao Nian and announced in public that Liu Nian was a child of the Liu family and had nothing to do with the Wen family. Xiao Nian's food and lodging over the years were also based on her dowry. The Wen family had no gratitude towards Xiao Nian, and Xiao Nian did not have to repay the gratitude.
Liu Ruyun lost most of her dowry for this, and she was locked up in the back house for many years and had no idea how to run a business.
In addition, Xiao Nian's strange illness required constant treatment, and the medicine prescribed by the clinic was very expensive. Soon, the mother and daughter had no choice but to move to this shabby house in Fu Ping Lane.
After listening to Liu Ruyun's story, Xie Liuyin's eyes narrowed slightly.
This was not right. Not to mention how the spiritual root was pulled out completely and planted in someone else's body, the appearance of this cultivator was too coincidental.
It just so happened that when he appeared, Xiao Nian's body had problems, and it just so happened that he had the ability to plant spiritual roots in people, which attracted Wen Ke's attention.
If Xie Liuyin had not arrived in time today, Xiao Nian would have definitely fallen into the hands of that cultivator. He brought the child into the inner room, and who knows whether he really came to take the child's spiritual roots or to do something else.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so Xie Liuyin simply pulled out the male cultivator who had been locked in the space artifact.
But before that, she carefully covered the entire house with a barrier to prevent the boy from running away as soon as he woke up.
Then, Xie Liuyin waved his hand, and the male cultivator appeared out of thin air.
After seeing clearly the appearance of this person who suddenly appeared, Liu Ruyun's face changed, and she quickly reached out to hug Xiao Nian, fearing that this person would snatch the child away again.
"Miss Liu, don't be afraid. I brought him out to find out what this man is planning to do to Xiaonian." Seeing that Liu Ruyun looked nervous, Xie Liuyin explained.
A spell was thrown over, and the male cultivator woke up all of a sudden, his eyes immediately changed from confusion to alertness.
A cold light flashed in his hand, and more than a dozen daggers shot towards Xie Liuyin's face from all directions.
If Xie Liuyin had not been on guard, he would have been stabbed by these hidden weapons.
The gold spiritual power suddenly started to work, knocking down the dozen daggers one after another. The male cultivator failed to hit the target and did not want to fight. He rushed out of the house immediately, wanting to escape.
However, the next second, he was bounced back by the barrier.
Xie Liuyin's Golden Hunting Lock also appeared at the right time and tied up the male cultivator from head to toe to ensure that this man could not cause any more trouble.
After tying up the man, Xie Liuyin waved his hand, and the male cultivator was hung up. Only his mouth was left exposed, so he could communicate with Xie Liuyin and others.
"Tell me, what do you want to do to Xiao Nian?" Xie Liuyin looked at him sharply and asked in a cold voice, "If you don't tell me, don't even think about leaving today."
After saying this, she clenched her five fingers into a fist. The tied-up male cultivator immediately discovered that the ropes that bound him were tightening, as if to squeeze out his internal organs.
Fortunately, the pain only lasted for a while, and Xie Liuyin let him go: "Tell me, otherwise it won't be so easy next time."
In just a short sentence, the male cultivator heard a hint of murderous intent.
He knew very well that if he continued to hold his ground and not speak, the female cultivator in front of him would really take his life!
The male cultivator was not a good person to begin with, and after being threatened with his life, he quickly told the truth.
Indeed, he was not a medical practitioner at all, and he had long been eyeing Xiao Nian. He went to the Wen family as a guest just for Xiao Nian.
"This child has an immortal bone growing in his body!" The male cultivator's eyes flickered, but he finally gritted his teeth and told the truth.
"Immortal bones? What is that?" Liu Ruyun asked curiously.
She is a mortal and doesn't know much about things related to cultivation.
But after hearing these three words, Xie Liuyin's expression changed instantly.
Immortal bones are also known as immortal lives. Legend has it that people with this kind of bones, no matter what their qualifications are, will definitely ascend to become immortals in the future.
But this is just a legend. At least before today, Xie Liuyin had never seen any immortal.
After a pause, Xie Liuyin explained the matter of the immortal bone to Liu Ruyun. After she finished listening, her eyes instantly became sharp, and she looked at the male cultivator with full momentum:
"How do you know that my child has immortal bones? You don't know how to grow spiritual roots. You just want to take away Xiao Nian's immortal bones, right?!"
The male cultivator nodded weakly: "Master gave me a compass and asked me to follow the instructions of the compass to find the immortal bone. If I find the other party, I must take the immortal bone away as soon as possible."
"After I came to the Wen family, I was worried that your family would not be willing to let me take the child away, so I made up a lie to deceive you."
Liu Ruyun asked anxiously: "Now that the truth has been exposed, you should cure Xiaonian's illness quickly!"
"I'm sorry, I can't help you with this." Facing Liu Ruyun's surprised expression, the male cultivator continued: "I just wanted to confirm whether the immortal bone was in her body and awakened it in advance. As for why she became like this, I don't know."
At this point, a trace of calculation flashed in the male cultivator's eyes, and then he said to Xie Liuyin half coaxingly and half deceivingly: "My dear senior, since you know about the Immortal Bone, you should also know how powerful this treasure is. How about you let me go and I will help you extract the Immortal Bone?"
That is the bone of an immortal. If you get it, you can become an immortal.
Even his master, who was above everyone else, could not resist such temptation, let alone the female cultivator in front of him.
But what he never expected was that the person in front of him refused without even thinking about it!
