"I will never let this go!"
Consort Hui's expression was one of utter grief and indignation, a picture of humiliation and injustice from Rong Xi.
"I wonder what kind of relentless pursuit Consort Hui intends to take?"
Rong Xi stared coldly at Consort Hui.
Previously, when they were at Yonghe Palace, Rong Xi had a fairly good impression of Consort Hui. But now, Rong Xi had only one feeling: as expected of a woman who could occupy a high position in the palace, she really did have some tricks up her sleeve.
However, Rong Xi was genuinely curious.
Consort Hui, who rose to prominence in the palace and became one of Emperor Kangxi's favorite women, couldn't possibly be so short-sighted. These accompanying top-grade spirit stones are extremely rare. It's only Rong Xi who has obtained quite a few. Consort Hui's actions this time are clearly intended to push things to the extreme.
This is not the way a smart person would do!
Was Consort Hui a fool?
Absolutely not!
How could a fool possibly win Emperor Kangxi's favor? How could he possibly reach this point in the harem?
In other words, Consort Hui did this for a special reason.
"interesting!"
Rong Xi was secretly pleased; this was getting more and more interesting.
"Consort Yinzhen, I didn't want this either!"
"However, I have no other choice but to apologize to you!"
Consort Hui took a step back and placed her hand on a bright pearl on the wall.
Buzz!
With a soft sound, the array within the treasure vault was activated.
The invisible spiritual energy transformed into shackles, instantly imprisoning Rong Xi on the spot.
Rong Xi was stunned. She never expected that Consort Hui would actually dare to attack her. And this was not the end. As Rong Xi was imprisoned, the array patterns beneath her feet began to flicker with spiritual light again.
Teleportation array!
The moment Rong Xi realized what had happened, the teleportation power had already locked onto her.
In the blink of an eye, the world before Rong Xi's eyes had changed.
The instant Rong Xi was teleported away, another magic array was activated within the treasure vault—it was still a teleportation array.
The space trembled slightly, and a figure appeared in front of Rong Xi.
"Hime greets the Holy Maiden!"
Upon seeing the figure appear inside the treasury, Consort Hui respectfully knelt on the ground.
"Get up and speak!"
The woman who appeared before Consort Hui was stunningly beautiful, but in the blink of an eye, her appearance and figure changed.
In the blink of an eye, the woman transformed into Rong Xi's appearance.
"Thank you, Holy Maiden!"
Consort Hui responded respectfully, then stood up and cautiously glanced at the woman who had transformed into Rong Xi.
"Time is running out. Make your preparations, and once this matter is over, you should return to your sect!"
"Senhime thanks the Holy Maiden!"
Consort Hui was overjoyed upon hearing the woman's words.
...
"Where is this place?"
Rong Xi observed her surroundings in astonishment, sensing something was amiss. She couldn't sense the baby's presence, and therefore couldn't use the spatial power of the baby's blessed land to leave.
However, the blessed land awarded by the system is still in the process of being sensed.
Meanwhile, the gluttonous beast was leisurely enjoying its meal in this blessed land.
Rong Xi had prepared a large amount of food beforehand, and at her suggestion, Taotie no longer wolfed down his food, but instead slowly enjoyed and savored it.
At this moment, Rong Xi's location was more like a cage. There were three walls, and one side was a gate made of black iron, which was clearly impossible for human hands to destroy.
Here, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is isolated.
The most vicious thing is that even storage artifacts cannot be opened.
"Consort Hui has actually betrayed us? Who would have thought!"
Rong Xi walked to the gate, opened her mouth, and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Help! Someone help me!"
Is anyone there?
Rong Xi shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Little girl, stop shouting. Even if you shout until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you!"
After Rong Xi called out for a while, someone finally responded. However, this person was clearly not a guard, but a prisoner like her.
Upon hearing the aged voice, Rong Xi immediately perked up and asked, "Senior, um, do you know where this is?"
"you do not know?"
An aged voice rang out, tinged with surprise.
"Should I know?" Rong Xi pouted. "I was teleported in directly. I don't even know who's targeting me!"
"Oh? That's strange!"
The aged voice held a hint of curiosity, "Little girl, this is the Xuanjin Black Prison of the Xiaoyao Sect. Ordinary people aren't qualified to be imprisoned here. You're just a little girl at the Nascent Soul stage, tsk tsk, the Xiaoyao Sect really is getting worse with each generation!"
"As expected of the Free and Unfettered Sect!"
The moment Consort Hui attacked her, Rong Xi guessed that she might be doing so because of the Xiaoyao Sect.
"Now that we know who did it, the game is over!"
"You can use wood to play with me now? What does that mean?"
The old voice was completely bewildered, unable to understand what Rong Xi meant at all.
"That's right, I'm not playing anymore!"
Rong Xi directly summoned Taotie from the system's blessed land.
"Little Flower, eat this!"
Rong Xi summoned the Taotie and pointed to the black iron gate in front of her.
Upon hearing Rong Xi's words, the Taotie's eyes lit up, and it rushed forward, opening its mouth to devour her.
Xuan iron, incomparably hard, is an indispensable main material for forging divine weapons. However, in the face of the Taotie's sharp teeth, this Xuan iron fence is as worthless as tofu.
"Hmm, not bad, crunchy, just the right texture!"
"Master, you are so kind!"
"My previous owner was a real miser. To treat you like that would be beneath him!"
The Taotie quickly devoured the gate made of black iron.
Rong Xi was a little confused. Well, ancient ferocious beasts are just that capricious!
"Senior, are you coming out?"
With the iron bars on the cell door chewed off, Rong Xi was free. She wandered around the corridors of the Xuanjin Black Prison for a while and soon found the old man who had spoken to her earlier.
"Well?!"
Upon seeing the old man, Rong Xi was completely dumbfounded again!
Before her eyes was not a living person at all, but a skeleton.
The bones were dark, and the soul fire burned in the eye sockets, making it look quite sinister.
While in prison, Rong Xi sensed a special barrier that isolated the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In such a cell, no matter how high one's cultivation level, escape was impossible.
But the skeleton in front of Rong Xi was actually locked in a cell by black iron chains.
"What a strange little girl!"
The skull's mouth opened and closed, and the eerie flames flickered.
"Um, senior, how should I address you?"
Upon first seeing the skeleton, Rong Xi nearly wet herself in fright, but she quickly regained her composure. In this world, there are gods and monsters, and now there are ghosts and skeletons—well, not surprising, not surprising at all!
"I am Xiaoyaozi!"
"What?" Upon hearing the skull's words, Rong Xi was completely dumbfounded again. Xiaoyaozi? The legendary patriarch of the Xiaoyao Sect?
