Chapter 259: People are addicted
"Aunt, do you think I have the potential to become a Taoist?" Zhao Junqing teased Nan Xuanwei.
"If you have this potential, your grandfather would have discovered it long ago. Cultivation is about opportunity, not persistence. But I see that your face has some problems recently. If you are not careful, you may bleed. Here is the jade token I gave you."
Nan Xuanwei bit her fingertips and added a small formation on the jade token, but felt that it was still not safe enough. She drew two talismans in the void in front of and behind Zhao Junqing and slapped them into his body. These two talismans had to be sealed temporarily, and would only burst out with energy when encountering danger.
This was the first time she had set up such a spell, and she had used up some of her spiritual energy. "It should be fine this time. I've used up some of my energy, so I'm going to take a nap."
"Aunt, you are so kind to me. I will take care of you in your old age."
"You're nice to me, go find your grandfather!"
Zhao Junqing went out for a short while and then came back: "Aunt, Nan Xuanqi is outside and he wants to see you."
"No, I'm trapped. Send him away."
"Okay!" Zhao Junqing was the best at chasing people away, so he went out happily.
After locking the door, Nan Xuanwei pasted talismans around the room and went into the spiritual field to rest. By the way, she took a look at the Hongming Bell. Fanghua Beast told her that this was a Taoist treasure, but the Yunxi Mountain Taoist Temple where Yumian Zhenren was located had never been able to make it recognize its master, so Yuntu was able to take it away.
"Does that mean that if we come across any treasure without an owner in the future, we can take it away."
The cloud map is flying up and down, of course, it's so powerful!
Looking at its master with sparkling eyes, Fanghua Beast gently advised: "You should be more reserved."
"I know this. I can't just rob everything I see. If anyone wants to use the treasure to hurt me, I'll take it away from him. Yuntu, let's cooperate well in the future!"
The cloud map raised one corner and high-fived Nan Xuanwei. Then one of them flew away to take inventory of the things in the cloud map, preparing to make room to collect the treasures, while the other sat down happily to gather spiritual power. Practicing in the spiritual field could achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Nan Xuanqi didn't go far. After a while, he came back to knock on the door. When he didn't get any response after knocking for a while, he started to bang on the door. There was a talisman pasted in Nan Xuanwei's room so she couldn't hear anything.
The staff "invited" Nan Xuanqi to leave and warned him that he would be disqualified from participating in the conference if he made trouble again.
"I want to see Nan Xuanwei, ask her to come and see me!" She must clear her name and hand over the family head token. He has already found a way to send a message to his old father, asking him to come in person. They have been planning for so many years and cannot let it go to waste.
"Why do you want to see my aunt? Are you going to give up the position of head of the family?" Zhao Junqing was leaning against the wall with his arms folded and his legs bent, with a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, looking like a little gangster.
"The Patriarch's token had been kept at Nanxuan's house the whole time, but it was lost after she left. She took the Patriarch's token and wanted to start her own business, but we didn't agree!"
"Is there a possibility that ever since my great aunt and grandmother passed away, you were plotting to take over the position of the head of the family, and the token disappeared when you got angry. For so many years, you had no idea where it was, and the token found my great aunt on its own."
"How is that possible? It's just a token, not a person!" Even if some treasures have spirituality, they are those ancient artifacts, and it is impossible for them to be a small token.
"Believe it or not, but I have to remind you that this is the Taoist Association's territory, not your home. Your tricks won't work here. You'd better go back and rest!"
It seems that it will not be easy to see that girl today, Nan Xuanqi can only go back and think of other ways. In the evening, Xiao Shiyu came to take Nan Xuanwei away.
"Should we go back to the villa halfway up the mountain or to the old house? Mom asked someone to prepare a roasted whole lamb."
"Have you returned to the old house? Last time, your aunt and I had a fight in front of my grandparents, and I was embarrassed to go back!" Nan Xuanwei scratched her head.
"If you don't want to go back to the old house, let's go back to the villa halfway up the mountain. I'll take care of everything when I'm back!"
"Then let's go back to the old house!" Anyway, Xiao Shiyu is here, and he will take care of anything that happens.
Nan Xuanwei was a little worried on the way, but when she got back to the Xiao family, everyone was very welcoming to her, and her grandparents didn't even mention Xiao Ran. Nan Xuanwei then completely let go and ate meat and drank milk tea.
"It's a pity that I have something to do tomorrow and can't drink." Nan Xuanwei felt quite regretful.
"Sister-in-law, can I go with you to watch the fun tomorrow?" Xiao Qingyan asked.
"I had a falling out with the Hidden World Family today, and even with my uncle. They even told everyone that I have a spirit beast. Those Taoist temples and Hidden World Family all want to take over Liuliu and the others. You'd better not go."
"Are you going to challenge several hidden families by yourself? I want to go even more. I'll call Zhao Junqing and tell him I'll be a volunteer for no salary and I won't have anything to do with you. They probably don't know our relationship!"
Xiao Shiyu gave his sister a brain-splitting look: "You stay at home for the next few days. I will send more people back to protect you. Not only was the matter of the spirit beast exposed today, but your sister-in-law got the order of the head of the Nanxuan family and announced in public that she would set up a new family. This decision will lead to a series of chain reactions. We will be very busy, so don't get involved."
What an exciting thing! Why not let her participate? If she can't help, can't she just watch the fun?
"Your brother is right. If we can't help, we shouldn't make trouble. Weiwei's family supports you. Just go for it no matter what you want to do!" Xiao Qinian's words represented the attitude of the Xiao family.
Nan Xuanwei's eyes swept over Xiao Qinian and the others. Seeing that they all nodded with a smile, Xiao Qingyan even took her arm and said, "I will have a sister-in-law who is the head of the family. In the future, just the identity of the sister-in-law of the head of the Nanxuan family will allow me to walk sideways in the Yuan Dynasty, right? Sister-in-law, you have to help me from now on. If you need money, I have some private money, all of which are at your disposal!"
"Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to accomplish my mission, and that I will be cursed and bring trouble to the Xiao family?"
With the support of Ziyun Temple and her master and senior brothers, the help of the Xiao family, the Zhao family and the Lin family, and the support of those godfathers behind the scenes, the chances of success are very high. Even if she fails, she has made a name for herself, and no one will ever think that the Xiao family married a little Taoist nun with no foundation and no one to rely on.
From Xiao Qinian's perspective, this matter has a 90% success rate.
"No matter what you want to do, I will help you fulfill your wish." Xiao Shiyu's eyes are brighter than the stars in the sky, making people indulge in them and unable to extricate themselves.
I will never let her have any regrets in this life and I will make sure she lives a fulfilling life.
The two of them stayed in the old house at night. Nan Xuanwei was going to the spiritual field to practice, while Xiao Shiyu went to the study to handle official business. He wanted to free up the daytime to accompany Nan Xuanwei to the Taoist Association. He had a premonition that the Nan Xuan family would definitely make some moves in the next few days, and the secluded family would not allow their daughter-in-law to set up her own business. They were in a relationship where they would prosper together and suffer together.
