Reborn in the Hehuan Sect, my master was transformed into a slave by me

After hearing this, Xiao Bingzhen threw the spirit stone in her hand to the ground and said angrily.

"Okay, you want to break up, right? Come on, others may be afraid of your Tang family, but I, Xiao Bingzhen, am not!"

"According to the rules, if you break off the engagement, you have to return the betrothal gifts twice. Take them out!" Xiao Bingzhen pointed at the Tang brothers and sisters in front of her.

"Ling Yu Changqing is dead, so we are not breaking off the engagement!"

"You are talking nonsense!"

She angrily slapped the box full of spirit stones beside her, and with one palm, the whole wooden box collapsed, and countless spirit stones were scattered all over the ground.

"Elder Xiao!" Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, several family heads on the side stopped it.

But Xiao Bingzhen did not stop venting her anger. She pointed at Tang Ziqi and said.

"You bitch, Changqing has been weak and sick since childhood, he has no chance of becoming a cultivator! Not to mention he is not qualified to participate in the trial! It's all your fault! While accepting the betrothal gift, you said you only like cultivators and encouraged him to participate in the trial!"

"If it weren't for you, he would never have gotten into trouble!"

"Changqing has liked you since childhood. In order to please you over the years, the value of the things he gave you is far more than the betrothal gift of 10,000 spirit stones!"

"Now he is just in danger of death, and you can't wait to get away, right!"

Tang Ziqi seemed to be frightened by her, hiding in her brother's arms and trembling, pitiful.

This scene made Xiao Bingzhen even more angry. Her nephew was fascinated by this woman, and now he is in danger of death, and he regrets it.

Brother Tang Zichen retorted while comforting his sister in his arms.

"It wasn't my sister who asked him to go. He is looking for death. What does it have to do with us!"

"I will kill you!" Xiao Bingzhen could no longer suppress her anger. She was impatient by nature. At this moment, the aura of a strong person in the instant realm was suddenly released. Several blue imperial spirits emitted light under her urging.

"How dare you! Who dares to use force in the family meeting room!"

A majestic voice came from behind the screen in the center of the meeting room, and a middle-aged man with a stern face stepped out from behind the screen.

"Elder Xiao has disregarded the family rules. He will be fined one month's salary and confined for three days."

Xiao Bingzhen saw the patriarch speak, and immediately restrained her arrogance. She sat back in her chair unwillingly, her eyes still fixed on the Tang brothers and sisters.

She naturally knew what was going on.

Among the four major families in the Yuguan Mountains, the Lingyu family and the Tang family are of similar strength. The Tang family ranks at the end, and the Lingyu family is second.

The two families have been friends for decades. To show their sincerity, the Tang and Lingyu families send some children to each other's schools every year to study and live for several years. It was through this opportunity that Tang Ziqi met Changqing and lived in Changqing's house for several years.

Changqing is the eldest son of the Chang branch of the four major branches of the Lingyu family, and his status is noble, while Tang Ziqi is just an ordinary member of the Tang family's last branch.

But Changqing was fascinated by this girl and poured countless wealth and resources into her over the years.

Finally, on the eve of the annual trial of the clan monks, Tang Ziqi agreed to the marriage. Even though she asked for a betrothal gift that was far beyond her status, Changqing still agreed without hesitation.

But unexpectedly, Tang Ziqi asked Changqing to participate in the family's trial of monks and become a monk.

You know, Changqing was a weak and sickly child since he was a child. He couldn't carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands. He was on the verge of death several times when he was a child.

Anyone with a discerning eye knew that this child would not be able to inherit the Changzi branch in the future. The clan had a clear rule that only cultivators who had reached the instantaneous cultivation level before the age of eighteen were eligible to become the head of a branch family.

Talent is often linked to physical strength. Performance like his was destined to be unsuitable for cultivation.

But before he was eighteen, he still enjoyed the preferential treatment of a branch heir.

Xiao Bingzhen was not actually Chang Qing's real relative. She was originally a maidservant of Chang Qing's mother. Later, because of her excellent talent and cultivation level, she was promoted to the instantaneous realm and was promoted to an elder of a different surname.

It was only because Chang Qing's mother died of dystocia when she gave birth to him. Xiao Bingzhen and his wife were like sisters, so they always treated Chang Qing as their own nephew and were extremely protective of him.

Originally, growing up in such a family environment and losing his mother since childhood, Chang Qing was inevitably stubborn. In addition, everyone with a discerning eye knew that he was destined to be a loser who had no chance to succeed the head of the family, which led to his very paranoid and twisted personality.

Even so, with his status as the eldest son and Xiao Bingzhen's protection, he could live a happy and carefree life as a rich man.

But he was ruined because he was bewitched by Tang Ziqi and lost his mind. He took advantage of Xiao Bingzhen's absence from the family to participate in the family's annual monk trial.

This annual trial,The purpose is to select the talented people in the clan to become monks and be cultivated by the clan.

All the clan members who participate in the trial will be sent to the deepest forbidden area of ​​Yingyang Valley to open the acupoints.

For monks, opening the acupoints is naturally the first and most critical step.

Some people will open their acupoints by chance and have their own spirit.

These people are often very talented.

The other type needs some strange phenomena of heaven and earth or the help of monks with profound cultivation to open the acupoints and become monks.

In the deepest forbidden area of ​​Yingyang Valley, there will be a strange phenomenon of heaven and earth called Yunpeng Wangyue every year. In the middle of the night, there will be dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and a Yunpeng will run out from the dark clouds, break through the dark clouds, reveal the moon, and rush straight into the sky.

After observing this strange phenomenon of heaven and earth, the clan members who participate in the trial and have the talent for cultivation will open their acupoints and become monks.

However, according to the clan rules, only those who participated in the trial can enter the forbidden area. There are many wild beasts and even spirit beasts in the forbidden area, which makes the annual trial dangerous.

Every year, some clan members who participated in the trial could not come back.

And this year, Ling Yu Changqing became one of the unlucky ones.

Now he has been missing for two months. During this period, Xiao Bingzhen could not search for his whereabouts in the forbidden area due to the clan rules. He could only secretly send some confidants to search for him, but with little success.

If nothing unexpected happens, Changqing will definitely die.

Some are happy and some are sad. On the other hand, the Tang family has good news.

In the cultivator trial of the same period, two geniuses appeared in the Tang family.

They are Tang Zichen and Tang Ziqi, brother and sister.

The younger sister Tang Ziqi, who was born with the fifth level of Shuhu, had excellent talent. Although she did not awaken her innate life spirit, she also absorbed a wind spirit as her acquired life spirit in the trial. Now she has cultivated to the sixth level of Shuhu.

And the older brother Tang Zichen was born with the seventh level of Shuhu. He could be said to be a rare genius in a century. Not only did he awaken his innate life spirit, the wind spirit, but in just two months he had cultivated to the peak of the ninth level of Shuhu and was about to break through to the instant realm.

The Tang family attached great importance to the two siblings. The clan leader even took Tang Zichen as his adopted son and taught him personally.

Today is different from the past. If it were the past, such a small matter would not require the dignified clan leader of the Lingyu family to come forward in person, but Xiao Bingzhen was too protective of her shortcomings and could easily offend the Tang family.

Not to mention that she wanted to attack the Tang brothers and sisters, which was simply bold and reckless.

The clan leader took two steps forward and said solemnly to the Tang brothers and sisters.

"Lingyu Changqing's life and death is unknown. According to the rules of our clan, those who participate in the trial and disappear for three months are considered dead."

"You can take the betrothal gifts back temporarily. After a month, when our clan confirms that Lingyu Changqing is dead, we can return the betrothal gifts. It will not be considered a violation of the marriage contract."

After that, he glanced at Xiao Bingzhen again and said in a neither light nor heavy voice.

"If anyone dares to object or plots revenge, it will ruin the reputation of our Lingyu family and be regarded as an enemy of the family."

Tang Ziqi bowed respectfully, with sadness and helplessness in her tone.

"Thank you for your understanding, Grandpa Clan Leader. We are all very sad that Brother Changqing is missing, but it is the family's intention to cancel the engagement, and we two brothers and sisters cannot violate it. Today, under the witness of Grandpa Clan Leader, we hope to reconcile with Brother Changqing's family."

"Of course, we also hope to have good news about Brother Changqing, but no matter what, I am destined to have no chance with him."

Her heart was filled with unprecedented joy and refreshment.

Now that she has transformed herself from a wild chicken into a phoenix, she naturally looks down on Ling Yu Changqing, an heir to a branch who is destined to be a good-for-nothing. Seeing that he is missing, she naturally wants to sever ties with him as soon as possible and cancel the engagement.
