Chapter Index

When Yang Kai returned to the Zhang family and pushed open the door of the guest room to enter, he saw Zhang Ruoxi sitting on the chair, looking as if she was about to cry.

Hearing the movement, looking up, Zhang Ruoxi’s beautiful eyes shone with delighted light and she quickly got up and said in a somewhat panicked way, “Sir…”

Yang Kai took a look at her and smiled, saying, “What? Thought I left you and the Zhang family alone and was crying here?”

Zhang Ruoxi pursed her red lips and slowly shook her head.

Yang Kai said, “Then why are you crying?”

Zhang Ruoxi said softly, “Since Ruoxi has followed Mister, she has nothing to do with the Zhang family anymore… Ruoxi thought that Mister… didn’t want me anymore.” Having said this, she suddenly summoned up her courage, looked up at Yang Kai, and said in a deep voice, “Mister, Ruoxi knows that her strength is low and she can’t help you. Instead, Mister has been taking care of me. But… Ruoxi can pour tea and water for you, make the bed and fold the quilt, do some trivial things for you, and be a maid…”

After saying that, she seemed a little shocked that she could say such things. She quickly lowered her head again, a blush flew onto her pretty face, and she curtsied, saying hastily, “Ruoxi has been rude. Mister, please rest.”

After saying that, she turned around and wanted to leave.

“Don’t be in a hurry to leave!” Yang Kai suddenly called out to stop her.

Zhang Ruoxi’s delicate body trembled, and she stood there nervously and uneasily, as if sitting on pins and needles. She said in a trembling voice, “M-Mister, do you have any orders?”

I don’t know what she thought of, but she looked was as nervous as a thorn in the back, with her two small hands placed on her abdomen unconsciously intertwined, her face as red as a burning fire, and the sound of her heartbeat like a war drum came from her small chest.

Yang Kai looked at her and said seriously, “Don’t look down on yourself. Since I promised the old lady to bring you by my side, there must be a place where I need your help!”

“The place where I can help?” Zhang Ruoxi’s beautiful eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said eagerly, “What does sir want me to do? Can you tell me?”

Yang Kai smiled and said, “I originally wanted to tell you when your strength improved a little more. Since you are so eager, then… it doesn’t hurt to tell you first.”

As he spoke, Yang Kai had already taken out the Empty Spirit Jade Tablet obtained from Lu Baichuan of the Lu family from his Space Ring.

When this Empty Spirit Jade Tablet appeared leisurely, Zhang Ruoxi’s delicate body trembled, and she stared fixedly ahead, murmuring, “This feeling…”

At this moment, the Empty Spirit Jade Tablet also seemed to have been stimulated by some existence, continuously emitting fluctuations of spatial power, making the space where it was located chaotic for a while, as if it was going to sink into the void.

Lu Baichuan was right. Zhang Ruoxi was indeed the key to triggering the reaction of this Empty Spirit Jade Tablet. As long as Zhang Ruoxi was within a certain range of the Empty Spirit Jade Tablet, this jade tablet would emit mysterious power.

It was precisely because of this reason that Lu Baichuan was able to get started in spatial power.

He even went to great lengths to eliminate the living forces of the Zhang family and then let Zhang Ruoxi marry into the Lu family. In this way, he would have a lot of opportunities to study the Empty Spirit Jade Tablet in the future, and could even use the clear spatial power to take his own strength to the next level.

Yang Kai stretched out his hand and waved it, and the Space Principle surged, completely sealing off the world where the wing room was located, isolating the transmission of the power fluctuation.

“What can you sense?” Yang Kai asked, looking at Zhang Ruoxi.

“Ruoxi can’t really say for sure.” Zhang Ruoxi slowly shook her head. “But… this feeling is very familiar. When I used to visit the Lu Family as a guest, I often had such a feeling. It seems that in a certain place in the Lu Family, there is something calling out to me. That’s exactly how I feel now, but before… it wasn’t as intense as it is now!”

Yang Kai nodded, Youdaoplaceholder0 thinking that the connection between Zhang Ruoxi and the Void Spirit Jade Disk should be two-way.

“Then do you recognize this thing?” Yang Kai asked.

Zhang Ruoxi slowly shook her head.

“This is something I obtained from Lu Baichuan.” Yang Kai said.

“Uncle-Grandpa Lu’s thing?” Zhang Ruoxi was astonished.

Even though Lu Baichuan was the Zhang Family’s sworn enemy, Zhang Ruoxi still didn’t call him randomly, which shows that this little girl’s mind is still very simple and kind-hearted.

“However, according to Lu Baichuan, this thing originally belonged to your Zhang Family.” Yang Kai continued. “It seems that there was a generation of Zhang Family’s women who, when she married into the Lu Family as a wife, took this thing as a dowry and brought it to the Lu Family.”

“Since it’s a dowry, then it should be considered the Lu Family’s.” Zhang Ruoxi smiled slightly.

Yang Kai said, “No matter whose it is, the root is in your Zhang Family. Did there used to be any remarkable big shots in your Zhang Family’s ancestors?”

Zhang Ruoxi shook her head and said, “Ruoxi doesn’t know. But when I was a child, I heard my grandmother and the others say that a long time ago, our Zhang family seemed to be a top-notch family too. But for some reason, it gradually declined.”

“That’s right.” Yang Kai nodded.

“But… why did this thing have a strange induction with me before? What about the other people in my Zhang family?” Zhang Ruoxi looked blank.

“The others should not have it. The reason why it is you…” At this point, Yang Kai paused and said, “There are two possibilities. One is that there is some kind of bloodline power in your body, and this bloodline power is stronger than that of the other people in the Zhang family, so it can have a reaction with the ethereal jade disc. This bloodline power should come from the original owner of the ethereal jade, an ancestor of your Zhang family!

“What about the other possibility?”

“You have a special constitution!” Yang Kai looked at Zhang Ruoxi and slowly shook his head and said, “Personally, I don’t think this is possible, because according to my observation for many days, you are not a person with a special constitution!”

“Then the first possibility is more likely?” Zhang Ruoxi continued.

“That’s right.” Yang Kai smiled slightly. “The matter of bloodline power is not clear. Maybe your bloodline is very similar to that of the ancestor back then, so you can sense the ethereal jade.

“Oh!” Zhang Ruoxi didn’t have much reaction when she heard this.

“Aren’t you happy?” Yang Kai looked at her with interest.

Zhang Ruoxi frowned and said, “Why does Sir ask this?”

Yang Kai smiled and said, “It seems you don’t know anything. Well, let me explain it this way. Your bloodline power is extremely similar to that of that ancestor, and you have also been recognized by this to a certain extent In the future your achievements are very likely to be on a par with that ancestor of yours! Yang Kai’s voice suddenly became low-key, and he continued, “The ethereal jade is no ordinary thing. To become its master, one must at least be a strong person at the Emperor Respect Realm!

After hearing this, Zhang Ruoxi finally seemed to understand. Her expression shook and she said, “Does sir mean… that Ruoxi may also become a strong person at the Emperor Respect Realm in the future?”

Yang Kai nodded.

“That’s great!” Zhang Ruoxi had a look of excitement on her face. “If this is really the case, then Ruoxi will definitely be able to help sir.”

After hearing this, Yang Kai was stunned for a moment.

After learning that she might become an Emperor Respect Realm expert in the future, the first thing she thought of was to help him.

This made Yang Kai’s heart warm.

“Sir, can I take a look at this thing?” Zhang Ruoxi looked at Yang Kai eagerly and asked, and then looked at the ethereal jade in his hand.

This thing was related to her future prospects, so she immediately became concerned.

“I was going to show it to you anyway.” Yang Kai smiled and handed the ethereal jade over

To be honest, since he obtained this ethereal jade jade, he had also studied it several times but found nothing. He only knew that this thing had been refined with great supernatural powers and should be a secret treasure, but he didn’t know how to use it.

He was proficient in the power of space and even had mastered the laws of space. Even he was helpless in the face of the ethereal jade disc. If there was anyone in the world who could figure out the mystery of the ethereal jade, it would be none other than Zhang Ruoxi!

Zhang Ruoxi excitedly took it.

A scene that neither of them expected occurred.

As soon as the jade tablet came into contact with Zhang Ruoxi, it trembled violently and erupted with a strong fluctuation of power.

And Zhang Ruoxi’s delicate body also trembled violently at this moment, as if being electrocuted.

Buzzing…

A strange sound came out, and on the surface of the ethereal jade that had been silent all along streaks of gorgeous flowing light.

Immediately after, one peculiar picture after another like projections suddenly shot out from the jade tablet filling the entire room and revolving continuously around Zhang Ruoxi and the jade tablet.

Yang Kai’s expression froze, and he frowned and looked over. He found that those pictures were flashing extremely fast, but with his eyesight, he could still see a lot clearly.

Youdaoplaceholder0, terraces and towers, clouds and mountains, mist and haze, jagged rocks, towering peaks, flying spirit cranes gathering of hundreds of birds, tinkling mountain springs, beautiful waters and bright peaks…

Those pictures seemed to be intercepted from a fairyland on earth, making people dizzying and reluctant to leave.

Yang Kai was stunned.

And just at this moment, Zhang Ruoxi suddenly let out a soft moan, the aura on her body rapidly weakened, Youdaoplaceholder0 an extremely painful expression. At the same time, a mysterious spatial force fluctuation surged up in the chamber.

Yang Kai vaguely saw a pitch-black void tunnel suddenly appear in the center of the side room, slowly taking shape but extremely unstable.

The tunnel was chaotic and empty inside, and it was not known where it led to.

“Let go!” Yang Kai suddenly shouted loudly. He urged the source energy in his body, mobilized the spatial law, suppressed the condensation of the void tunnel, and at the same time, he lunged forward with all his strength, Youdaoplaceholder0 to Zhang Ruoxi’s, and snatched the ethereal jade away with a single swipe.

The pictures all over the room suddenly disappeared, and the void tunnel in the center of the room also suddenly collapsed and dissipated.

Zhang Ruoxi let out a soft snort and fell limply to the ground.

Yang Kai’s face couldn’t help but change drastically!

He never expected that just letting Zhang Ruoxi hold the ethereal jade for a while would cause such a thing to happen If he had known this earlier, he would never have taken this risk no matter what.

Putting away the ethereal jade, Yang Kai bent down and picked up Zhang Ruoxi.His hand felt sticky.

In that short moment, Zhang Ruoxi’s whole body was soaked in sweat.

After settling her on the bed, Yang Kai reached out and placed his hand on her wrist. His Source Power circulated through her body once, and his expression became extremely gloomy.

He discovered that a great deal of the vitality within Zhang Ruoxi’s body had been drained, leaving her severely injured. Originally a young girl in her teens, the condition of her body was now no different from that of someone who had lived for several decades.

This kind of fundamental damage could by no means be made up for by ordinary spirit pills. If left untreated, Zhang Ruoxi’s body would age rapidly.
