Even if he reacted, what would it matter? His life was in someone else's hands, and he had no choice but to obey. He lowered his head, his eyes flickering with gloom.
The woman in his arms rubbed his body unconsciously. Yan Ci suddenly stiffened and his ears turned red. However, the stupid woman seemed to be unaware of how outrageous her behavior was. Her pair of snow-white hands restlessly wrapped around his waist.
Yan Ci suddenly became stiff and hot all over, with his hands nowhere to put. He was going crazy.
He grabbed Leng Qingning's restless little hand with his left hand, and stretched out his right hand in front of Chen Shaoqian, "Hand over the antidote!"
Seeing Yan Ci Leng reaching out his hand towards him with murderous intent, although he didn't say anything extra, Chen Shaoqian felt a chill on his back when he was stared at by him.
He handed over the antidote without hesitation. "Here is the antidote."
Yan Ci opened the bottle with one hand and smelled it, then said with a sarcastic smile: "It seems that the lesson I taught you was not enough. Give me the complete antidote, otherwise I will make you unable to even be a human being."
Chen Shaoqian was shocked and his face was full of disbelief. This was a forbidden drug passed down from their Chen family's ancestors. Even a chaste and virtuous woman would become a prostitute after taking this drug.
How did this person know that this was not a complete antidote? He no longer dared to play tricks and even handed over the other half of the antidote.
"Senior, please calm down..."
Yan Ci stuffed two antidotes, a red and a white one, into Leng Qingning's mouth. After taking the antidote, Leng Qingning quickly woke up. Seeing Chen Shaoqian kneeling on the ground, she immediately kicked him in the face.
"How dare you plot against me, you damn stud!" In the blink of an eye, that handsome face was beaten beyond recognition. Yan Ci watched from the side, and Chen Shaoqian did not dare to resist.
Seeing Leng Qingning rubbing her wrist and feeling a little tired, he rudely kicked Chen Shaoqian and said, "Lead the way."
He carried Chen Shaoqian in one hand and walked towards the ancestral hall, Leng Qingning followed beside him. The guests at the banquet did not notice the difference here, and were still drinking and talking happily with Chen Shaoxing, the eldest son of the Chen family. Chen Shaoqian, who was beaten black and blue and had lost his dignity as a man, was extremely desperate when he heard the cheerful sounds over there.
The two servants guarding the ancestral hall of "Second Young Master" saw Chen Shaoqian saluting respectfully.
"You two keep a good guard and don't let anyone in." As he said this, he was about to lead Leng Qingning and the other person into the ancestral hall.
"Second Young Master, only members of the Chen family can enter this ancestral hall..." Although Two Hours felt that the Second Young Master's voice sounded a little strange, as a servant, how could he dare to question his master?
"Why, you don't want to listen to what I say, right?"
The other person quickly grabbed the boy who spoke and kept making eye contact with him.
"Please forgive me, Second Young Master. I didn't mean that. This guy is new here and doesn't know the rules. I will teach him a lesson right away." As he said that, he pulled the man away to make way for Leng Qingning and the other two.
After the three of them entered the ancestral hall, the man said, "Chen Ba, besides the head of the family, the second young master has the most say in this mansion. As servants, we should not question the master's decision."
Chen Ba nodded, not quite understanding.
Leng Qingning and Yan Ci followed behind Chen Shaoqian. This family was very cunning and wanted to prevent him from doing anything tricky. He first knelt down and bowed to the ancestor in the middle row, then kowtowed three times, mumbling something.
"My dear ancestors, please forgive me for offending you..."
"What are you dawdling for?" Yan Ci showed impatience on his face. A strong sense of oppression came over him. Cold sweat broke out on Chen Shaoqianjing's back. He twisted the spirit tablet in the middle with a desperate look, and heard a click.
Not far from the kneeling cushion, a pitch-black entrance suddenly appeared. At the entrance was a long stone staircase, as if a dark beast was waiting for its prey to be delivered to its mouth.
Chen Shaoqian looked down with a dark look in his eyes. As long as these two people entered...
Unexpectedly, Leng Qingning suddenly pushed him forward, and Chen Shaoqian was almost pushed down the stairs. Leng Qingning suddenly covered her chest with an innocent look and said softly, "Oh, I'm sorry, Second Young Master Chen, I didn't mean to. We are both unfamiliar with this place. I think you wouldn't mind leading us?"
This damn woman!
He gritted his teeth, forced a smile and said, "Of course it's okay." He immediately turned around and led the two of them underground with a gloomy face. Leng Qingning never missed a step he took.
They would not leave the corner until they were sure where he had gone and it was safe for them both to do so.
At this moment, the view ahead suddenly opened up, and there were faint flashes of white light in front, accompanied by rich spiritual power.
Not far ahead, there was a small formation in operation. The layout of the formation was the same as the stone platform layout she had seen on the island before, but without the support of the Sea God Pearl, this small formation was not stable, and the light flickered during operation.
"What a bunch of idiots! Without the support of the main formation, they arbitrarily moved the secondary formation away. Even with the support of the eye stone, this formation can't last more than seventy years!"
Chen Shaoqian was suddenly shocked and asked, "How did you know?" This was a secret left by their ancestors. They had taken advantage of the opportunity to steal the Sea God Pearl, moved the secondary formation away, and then blamed it on the island owner at the time. Who knew that the Sea God Pearl was suddenly stolen on the way to steal it, which led to the rift between their human race and the mermaid race.
"This is a shameful secret, and only the descendants of these direct descendants can know it. How did this senior know this past when he wasn't from the island?"
Leng Qingning came back to his senses and seemed to know something incredible. "You said this is a secondary formation? Or is it a secondary formation that has been moved away?" Could it be that the formation on the island was actually destroyed because the Chen family secretly moved the secondary formation away?
"That's right, but this formation is currently unusable. Without the support of the eye stone, it can only be activated once a year at most."
Seeing Leng Qingning's eyes shining brightly and suddenly staring at the formation, Chen Shaoqian's heart skipped a beat and a bad thought suddenly arose in his mind.
"Yan Ci, can we move this formation away?" Since the Chen family can do it, can they?
"Why is that so difficult?"
"Wait a minute—"
Just as Chen Shaoqian was about to stop him, he watched helplessly as the teleportation array he had obtained with great difficulty was easily taken away and put away by the young man in front of him who had an uncanny appearance and terrifying strength.
"You are so despicable--" Chen Shaoqian watched this scene with bloodshot eyes. Because the blow was too severe, he immediately spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground unconscious due to anger.
After obtaining the teleportation array, the two men stepped over Chen Shaoqian's body, one in front and one behind, and wanted to leave this place of trouble.
