As soon as she took a bite, Rongrong was stunned and Zhao Yue beside her also opened her eyes wide.
Zhao Tian and the others, who hadn't taken the cake seriously at all, stared at Rongrong and the cake in her hand in shock. Zhao Tian's eyes were as big as copper bells. Seeing Rongrong couldn't wait to take a second bite, he immediately stopped her: "Don't eat it!"
The cultivator in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm teleported in front of the little girl in the blink of an eye and reached out to take away the cake that was missing a bite.
Seeing this, Luo Jianqing sneered, raised the corners of his lips, and stomped the ground lightly.
boom!
A powerful wave of spiritual energy fiercely hit Zhao Tian, causing him to fall back two steps.
At this moment, Zhao Tian didn't care about being repelled. He shouted angrily, "Don't eat it! Leave that precious pill! This scent is at least a fifth-grade pill. Leave it to my father. He will definitely improve his cultivation and maybe even achieve a breakthrough!"
When Rongrong heard this, she was so scared that she stopped immediately and looked at her grandfather who was standing not far away with her big eyes.
Zhao Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He stepped forward and said, "This contains at least the medicinal power of a fifth-grade pill. If you give it to father, it will be a great achievement. Yue'er, you did a great job today." As he spoke, Zhao Tian wanted to reach out and take the wind cake in Rongrong's hand.
Luo Jianqing frowned slightly but said nothing. He wanted to see what Zhao Yue would choose.
Just as Zhao Tian was about to grab the puff cake, Zhao Yue suddenly opened her arms and blocked his way. Zhao Tian was stunned. Zhao Yue gritted her teeth and said, "Father! Rongrong likes puff cakes. I've told you this in my letters over the years. Today, she just wants to have a piece of puff cake. Why stop her?"
Zhao Tian was stunned for a moment, then angrily said, "Don't mess around! Rongrong is just a little girl, why would she want a fifth-grade elixir? This thing must be given to father."
Zhao Yue said expressionlessly, "Grandfather has been in seclusion and hasn't come out yet. Is this pill really for him?"
Zhao Tian: "You! You are talking nonsense!"
Zhao Yue closed her eyes and smiled bitterly, "Father, you haven't even looked me in the eye since I returned. Mother passed away many years ago, and I thought you, my eldest brother, my third sister, and Rongrong were my last family left in this world. This time, after returning from Yingfeng City, I don't want to know who ambushed me and bribed the assassin to take my life, mother and daughter. I don't want to know, and I don't dare to know. But now, you insist on snatching a piece of cake from your granddaughter and enjoying it yourself. How could you be so cruel!"
Zhao Tian was speechless for a long time before he said, "You're talking nonsense. I don't know that you were being chased on the road, nor do I know what you are talking about now. It is your duty to contribute to the family. Hand over the things quickly!"
Zhao Yue smiled. "My daughter knows that you wouldn't hire someone to kill her. As for who wanted to kill her..." Zhao Yue glanced coldly at the young man and woman behind Zhao Tian and said calmly, "My daughter doesn't want to know."
Zhao Tian angrily said, "The fifth-grade elixir is a family treasure, how dare you take it for yourself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the pressure from Zhao Tian, a Jindan stage cultivator, spread out in all directions, and he actually wanted to snatch it directly!
The pressure on Rongrong made her bones creak and she cried in pain. But even so, Rongrong held the cake tightly in her hand and refused to give it up.
"This is a gift from my brother to Rongrong. It belongs to Rongrong..."
Looking at this scene, Luo Jianqing finally couldn't help but say, "It's yours, just eat it."
As he spoke, Luo Jianqing flicked his sleeve, and the pressure on Rongrong instantly disappeared. Rongrong nodded blankly and subconsciously took another bite of the cake. A bright light flickered on her body, and her grandfather Zhao Tian's eyes widened with anger.
“No!!!”
Luo Jianqing sneered, but before he could make a move, Xuan Lingzi pointed his finger and froze Zhao Tian in place.
Luo Jianqing turned to look at his master in surprise and asked, "I thought you wouldn't take action."
Xuan Lingzi lowered his eyes and revealed a barely perceptible smile: "Someone is coming. With your cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation building, you are not his opponent for the time being."
Luo Jianqing raised an eyebrow in surprise, but before he could ask further questions, he saw an old man with white hair and eyebrows flying down from the sky. In an instant, the pressure of the Nascent Soul cultivators rumbled down like a mountain or sea, suffocating everyone. Only Luo Jianqing, Xuan Lingzi, and the little girl Rongrong, who was under their protection, remained unharmed.
State Master Zhao had a stern demeanor. He glanced around and said coldly, "Zhao Tian, what's going on?"
Zhao Tian immediately bowed and said, "Father, today I saw a fifth-grade elixir. It was a gift given to Yue'er's daughter, Rongrong. I thought it wouldn't do Rongrong much good now, so I should have given it to you, but I was stopped."
Master Zhao was slightly startled when he heard this. His gaze lingered on Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi. The two stared at each other for a long moment. Master Zhao stepped forward and asked, "My two fellow Daoists, could it be that the fifth-grade elixir belongs to you?"
Luo Jianqing nodded calmly: "Yes, but I have already given it to Rongrong."
Upon hearing this, Master Zhao laughed heartily. "Great! My great-granddaughter has such an opportunity, and she is destined to have a bright future! I would like to give you two some small gifts in return, and I hope you will accept them. Our Master's House never owes favors to others, and I, Zhao Bo, will certainly not snatch away the opportunity my great-granddaughter has today!"
Zhao Tian was stunned for a moment.
Zhao Yue's eyes turned red and gradually became moist.
This Master Zhao was a little different from what Luo Jianqing had imagined. He looked at Master Zhao a few more times, thinking he was just being perfunctory, but unexpectedly, Master Zhao let Rongrong eat the wind cake directly. Sniffing the sweet fragrance of the wind cake, Master Zhao sighed, "I haven't tasted the wind cake from Yingfeng City in many years. It is indeed delicious. I must try it in a few days."
