"Grandpa Yu, someone's set up a formation here. Don't worry, I'll break it in a moment," Zhou Yuanyuan comforted Yu Xiaohan. To reassure Yu Xiaohan, Zhou Yuanyuan had to show off a bit of her skills. Breaking this "trap formation" would be the best way to reassure Yu Xiaohan.
"Really? That's great." As expected, Yu Xiaohan beamed. No words of comfort could compare to a real demonstration of one's abilities. Knowing that Zhou Yuanyuan could break the formation, Yu Xiaohan felt a little relieved.
"Zhuzhu, don't you want to absorb energy? I'll leave this trap to you." Zhou Yuanyuan uses people according to their abilities and will never admit that she wants to be lazy.
"Alright, Master." Upon hearing that the energy from the trapping formation belonged to it, the Chaos Pearl quickly sprang into action. In less than half a minute, the Chaos Pearl had absorbed several small formation flags from the Yu family compound.
Of course! Zhou Yuanyuan was not idle either. She pretended to make a few hand gestures in the courtyard before saying to Xiaohan, "Grandpa Yu, that's enough."
Seeing this, Yu Xiaohan hurried to the gate. Sure enough, the barrier that had blocked his way was gone.
Hey! Xiaoyu's cousin is really amazing!
Yu Xiaohan happily walked in and out, having a blast playing in and out. This is his home! It's filled with the air of freedom.
"Master, those formation flags can still be used! It's a shame they were eaten by the Pearl." Xiaoyu was lost in thought when she saw several formation flags already in the Chaos Pearl's maw. She couldn't help but feel a pang of pain. Master's wealth isn't deep enough! Besides elixirs and magical treasures, they're in short supply. These small formation flags aren't great, but they're better than nothing, right?
"It's okay, it's okay. Zhuzhu has worked hard. Just make up for it. Hehe, just make up for it." Zhou Yuanyuan quickly comforted Xiaoyu and Hun Dun Zhu. After hearing Xiaoyu's words, Hun Dun Zhu's originally cheerful expression turned into a depressed look.
"Alright! The beads have already been eaten, so they'll replenish my energy and help my master deal with that cultivator." Xiaoyu smacked her lips and fell silent. When things were irreversible, Xiaoyu could only help her master get more benefits. When the Chaos Pearl wasn't slacking off, dealing with a few cultivators was a piece of cake. In fact, what Xiaoyu was interested in was the Chaos Spiritual Energy refined by the Chaos Pearl. If my master could use some of it while practicing, hey! Advancement would be a breeze.
"Boss Xiaoyu, you're so kind. Zhuzhu will protect you!" Chaos Pearl quickly expressed its loyalty to Xiaoyu. Chaos Pearl was truly afraid that Xiaoyu would ask it to spit out the spiritual energy refined by the formation flag. Fortunately, Boss Xiaoyu hadn't expected this.
Yu Xiaohan's matter had come to a temporary end, and Zhou Yuanyuan had settled down at the Yu residence. Since she had already taken charge of this matter, she was determined to see it through to the end. She planned to wait and see what kind of cultivator dared to "borrow Qi" to do this.
Zhou Yuanyuan had read in "Cultivation Miscellaneous Talks" that when a cultivator wanted to "borrow luck," they usually needed to set up a formation similar to the "Seven Star Soul Transformation Formation" in the Langyuan Secret Realm. For a mortal's "luck" to be "borrowed" by a cultivator, it was basically like taking their life along with it!
"Xiaoyu, is Yu Xiaohan's luck still very strong? So strong that even cultivators want to take it away?" Zhou Yuanyuan also remembered that Yu Xiaohan's luck had been taken away by the Qian family's fortune-changing formation before. She couldn't figure it out, so she had to ask Xiaoyu for help.
"Yes, Master, your intervention has been of great benefit to Xiaohan. He's already recovered 70% to 80% of the luck he'd previously lost due to the Luck Absorption Array," Xiaoyu said truthfully. For Xiaohan, meeting Zhou Yuanyuan was his "luck." Zhou Yuanyuan's intervention changed Yu Xiaohan's fate, having previously been drained of his vitality and dying.
The saying "after adversity comes good times" is not just talk. Everything that is happening to Yu Xiaohan now is a manifestation of this saying.
Zhou Yuanyuan was worrying about Yu Xiaohan's affairs. On the other hand, Zhao Yunxiang was shocked by Gu Tiezhu's audacity.
When Qiu Yuhua came to pick up Zhao Yunxiang to go to work in the morning, she seemed to want to say something but stopped herself several times, wanting to tell Zhao Yunxiang what happened in the factory last night.
After thinking about it, Qiu Yuhua decided to keep the matter to herself. After all, Gu Tiezhu was Zhao Yunxiang's fellow villager, and Zhao Yunxiang was raising Gu Tiezhu's two children for him. If she were to gossip about Gu Tiezhu now, she didn't know if Zhao Yunxiang would dislike her.
Forget it, anyway, when I get to the factory, Mr. Zhao will know everything I need to know, so I won’t be that “gossip”!
Only when she saw the Yunyun Garment Factory right before her did Qiu Yuhua make up her mind.
As soon as Zhao Yunxiang got out of the car, she was stunned by the police cars parked at the factory gate. Did something happen at the Yunyun Garment Factory? Why were there so many police cars parked at the factory gate so early in the morning?
The security guard saw Zhao Yunxiang's car from afar and quickly opened the gate to let Zhao Yunxiang's car drive in.
Zhao Yunxiang gestured for Qiu Yuhua to park the car at the door, then opened the door and got out. The police cars were parked there, their red lights flashing, dazzling people, but Zhao Yunxiang didn't have the heart to ignore them.
No matter what happened, running away wasn't an option. The sight of three police cars, four officers, and a large, sleek black dog on a leash held by a young officer frightened Zhao Yunxiang.
At Zhao Yunxiang's signal, Qiu Yuhua drove the car into the factory.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao, I am Xu Zhiyuan, the team leader of this team." When Xu Zhiyuan saw Zhao Yunxiang get out of the car, he quickly walked up and made a brief introduction.
"Hello, Xu Gongan! What happened?" Zhao Yunxiang nodded and asked.
Xu Zhiyuan carefully observed Zhao Yunxiang's facial expression and could tell that her surprise was genuine. Could it be that Zhao Yunxiang didn't know what was happening at the factory? Xu Zhiyuan was a little surprised.
Before Xu Zhiyuan could say anything, a middle-aged woman in her forties hurried out of the factory. When she saw Zhao Yunxiang, her eyes lit up.
"Boss Zhao, you're finally here." Wu Xiuping was the director of the Yunyun Garment Factory and one of Zhao Yunxiang's key personnel. Around six in the morning, after the factory incident, Wu Xiuping had called Zhao Yunxiang, but her home line was always busy, leaving her feeling incredibly anxious.
"Sister Wu, what happened?" Zhao Yunxiang knew that Wu Xiuping had a calm personality. She rarely saw Wu Xiuping as impatient as she was today.
"Mr. Zhao, at 5:30 this morning, someone broke into the dormitory building and forcibly took Gu Hongxing and Gu Xiaofang away. They cried and screamed, so I reported it to the police," Wu Xiuping said, feeling a little embarrassed. She knew that Gu Hongxing and his sister were from the same hometown as Zhao Yunxiang, and were considered Zhao Yunxiang's "adopted" children. Over the years, Zhao Yunxiang's kindness to Gu Hongxing and his sister was evident to everyone, including Wu Xiuping.
