Everyone looked out of the hall and saw a woman about thirty years old, wearing a green shirt and feather coat, walking out. This woman had her hair tied up in a bun with a golden hairpin and she was wearing an apricot yellow silk skirt. A pair of indigo brocade embroidered shoes were exposed under her feet. The eyebrows are like green feathers, the eyes are like autumn mountains, and the breeze blows, floating like a fairy.
A group of people couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
However, Zhao Yueer recognized it at a glance and said in surprise: "Grandma-in-law!"
Immediately, several pairs of dissatisfied eyes looked at her, thinking: "How can such a gorgeous person be called a mother-in-law?"
At this time, Zhao Beiqing had gotten rid of Yin Luxiang's pressure, and he happily stepped forward, bowed and said:
"My subordinate, Yunzhou Inspector Zhao Beiqing, has met the master of Baoyuan Palace, Shuihong Zhenren."
It turns out that she is Shuihong Zhenren! Only then did everyone in the hall suddenly realize. When they thought that the person in front of them was actually the ancestor of Jindan, those who were confused by her appearance and had secret admiration, desire, longing and many other thoughts immediately stopped and did not dare to have any more delusions.
Master Shuihong nodded slightly towards Zhao Beiqing, then walked to Zhao Yue'er in a few steps and held her in his arms.
"Little girl, your mother-in-law is not here, is someone bullying you?"
"Mother-in-law—" Zhao Yuer'er pursed her lips and said, "That old man in the hall is so unreasonable. Yuer'er risked his life and came back to report the news, but he framed her, how shameless!"
After saying that, tears fell down, just like rain hitting pear blossoms, which made people feel pity.
Some people shook their heads secretly. They had seen what happened from beginning to end, and they all knew that what Master Lu Xiang did was really unethical, bullying a child whose cultivation level was completely different from his own.
Shuihong had never looked at Yin Luxiang since she appeared. Only then did she turn her eyes to him and sneered:
"Yin Luxiang, you are really promising, even children look down on you!"
Yin Luxiang had been keeping a cold face and said nothing. Now when he heard Shuihong's merciless sarcasm, his face turned dark again.
He suppressed his anger and refused to argue with this woman. He waved his hands and said impatiently:
"Shui Hong! I'm reviewing a case, so stop making noises around me!"
These words instantly ignited Shuihong's anger.
There was a "clang" sound, and there was a long sword in her hand. The tip of the sword was pointed directly at Yinluxiang, and her beautiful face was filled with anger:
"Yin Luxiang, you coward! You bullied my disciple, and you bullied me in public! I ask you, do you dare to fight me?"
Yin Luxiang suddenly felt dizzy and secretly regretted that he should not have used his words so quickly that he once again offended this crazy woman. But it was too late to regret it now. Someone was pointing a sword at him, and he couldn't be timid.
"I'm afraid you won't succeed!" He slapped the case and stood up quickly: "Let's fight. If you lose, don't blame me for bullying women!"
As he said this, he made a move with both hands, each holding an iron mace, eager to try.
Everyone was stunned immediately. You two are already ancestor-level figures. Why do you start fighting when you meet?
Speaking of which, these two people really don't deal with each other.
The reason! Of course it's a battle of interests.
The Zhenguo Palace was in charge of the prefectures and counties all over the world. It was said to be extremely powerful, but in fact it had a huge inconvenience.
What is it?
It is Baoyuan Hall.
The natural, material, earthly treasures and spiritual mineral resources of all prefectures and counties are under the jurisdiction of Baoyuan Palace. This is equivalent to handing over the most lucrative interests in the state and county.
This is more uncomfortable than cutting meat! Who can be willing?
Therefore, over the past many years, disputes have often broken out in the Second Hall of Zhenguo Baoyuan around these resource interests, and it has even reached the elders' meeting. It is common for the two Jindan Masters to accuse each other and look at each other with cold eyebrows.
This is also the reason why Yin Luxiang was in a bad mood when he saw Shuihong appear just now.
What's even more annoying is that Baoyuan Palace also specially set up the position of inspector. Because of the inspection of spiritual mineral resources, he often found evidence of various corruption, bending of the law, and personal gain in local counties and even state palaces.
Countless people were punished for this in Zhenguodian.
In this way, Baoyuan Hall is equivalent to the supervisor behind Zhenguo Hall, becoming a sharp sword hanging over their heads.
Who can bear this?
With all these conflicts, can the relationship between these two people be good? In other words, the sect doesn’t want to see the two of them being friendly!
In addition, it is said that there is another story about the grudge between these two people.
It is said that when Shuihong was young, she had a love affair with Yin Luxiang. At that time, one of them had only water spiritual roots, and the other had only earth spiritual roots. They were both the proud sons of the sect, and their futures were limitless.
However, later, when Shuihong was forced to marry by a big family, Yin Luxiang stood by and watched the whole process without any intention of helping. He just let the beautiful woman bend down as a mortal to have children. Of course, he was not born in the end.
After this incident, the two turned against each other and turned from lovers into bitter couples.
This story has not been confirmed, but the quarrel between the two is well known to everyone in the sect.
Otherwise, when Zhao Beiqing suggested informing Shuihong, Hechuan and others remained silent!
…
At this time, everyone saw that the two real people were about to fight, and they all stepped forward to stop them.
Someone said: "Two ancestors, your magic skills are all over the sky. If we really fight, Langshan will usher in a catastrophe! Even us juniors will probably suffer the same disaster."
Shuihong Zhenren pointed his jade fingers to the sky: "What are you afraid of! I will fight with this old guy in the sky!"
Some people were more clever and immediately advised: "Two ancestors, the witch from Qin is still on the run. If we make a fuss, wouldn't it be a joke!"
Shuihong didn't care: "If you want to laugh, it's because you're a coward like him!"
Hechuan Shangren was also trembling at the side and tried to dissuade him: "Two ancestors, the sect, the sect strictly prohibits the Zifu and above from fighting with each other!"
Shuihong raised her eyebrows: "So what? He bullies my disciples and won't let me reason?"
Shuihong Zhenren is not only highly skilled in cultivation, but also has a sharp mouth and is also eloquent. These people who tried to dissuade her were all speechless by her.
Yin Luxiang also occasionally talks back here, but if he doesn't rely on his magic power, his voice really can't be suppressed by Shui Hong. More importantly, he couldn't afford to quarrel like this in front of all his subordinates!
As a result, his momentum became weaker and weaker.
Of course, the two of them didn't fight until the end of the quarrel, otherwise the news would have spread. Shuihong didn't care that she was a prostitute, but Yin Luxiang would have been embarrassed.
After everyone's persuasion, Yin Luxiang had to withdraw his previous suspicion of Yang Zhen. As for interrogating Zhao Yue'er alone, he did not even mention it.
Zhao Yueer continued to tell what happened in the secret realm. With Grandma Shuihong here, she gave a more detailed account, including the subsequent battle between the five of them against Yan Hongzhu and the incident where Feng Changqing was burned to death by a third-level talisman.
Finally, she begged: "Mother-in-law, please think of a solution quickly. Little Stone is still trapped in the secret realm! There are also many disciples of the sect who can't find the orb, and the monster monkey won't let them out!"
