The current Luo Ying has experienced so many ups and downs in the world, the tragic defeat of the Ye family, the tragic defeat of her own family, and the tragic defeat of Ye City. So many relatives and friends have died in front of her eyes, and so many innocent people are being tortured and living like slaves. So she has grown up through one thing after another, and has experienced hardships that ordinary people cannot experience. She is no longer the simple girl she used to be.
She became calm and sophisticated, and would never believe anything just based on the surface of things.
When she saw the arrogant and condescending Master Lanhuo of Tiger City scolding his subordinates for her, Luo Ying knew that there must be some ulterior motive behind Master Lanhuo's smiling face.
Therefore, Luo Ying did not relax her guard against Master Lanhuo just because Jiang Yun nodded and said sorry to her. On the contrary, she felt that a huge conspiracy was approaching her step by step.
"Stand aside! You disrespectful slave!" After seeing Jiang Yun nodding and bowing to Luo Ying, Blue Fire Master scolded Jiang Yun again, and then said with a caring tone: "Miss Luo, are you okay? It's all because of my poor teaching that Miss Luo has been wronged!"
Looking at Jiang Yun being taught a lesson by Blue Fire Master, Luo Ying angrily snorted, "You are just a bully!"
After Luo Ying snorted coldly, he also looked at Master Lan Huo with anger on his face and said, "Master Lan Huo, I think you are a complete hypocrite. You should be called the Fake Master Lan Huo to match your hypocrisy!"
The arrogant Master Lanhuo could not believe that Luo Ying in front of him was so fearless of life and death. In addition to anger, he also felt a sense of surprise.
Luo Ying's guess was absolutely correct. Master Lanhuo scolded Jiang Yun in front of her and even wanted to hit Jiang Yun. These scenes were deliberately acted for Luo Ying to see.
His purpose is to obtain the Luo family's treasure.
The Luo family's treasure has always been a hot topic of discussion among the major sects and cities in the body refining field of the first level of the Xuanwu Continent.
The Luo family's treasure trove of rare treasures and martial arts books are said to be magical, especially the golden armor among the treasure. It is said that it is the armor of the god of war that can unify the world's martial arts. It is said that whoever obtains the golden armor can enter the world and the earth.
True Man Lanhuo is also an ambitious person. His purpose of attacking Yecheng, in addition to unifying the first level of body refining in Xuanwu Continent, is to find the Luo family treasure, obtain the golden armor, and dominate the heavens and the earth.
So when he first took over the Luo family in Yecheng, he searched almost the entire Luo family for the treasure map of the Luo family's treasure.
However, in the end, only the upper half of the treasure map was found in the Luo family's secret room, while the lower half of the treasure map and the white jade key to unlock the treasure were nowhere to be found.
Later, he sent people to search secretly and targeted Luo Ying, because Master Lanhuo knew that Luo Ying was the only daughter of Luo Zheng. As for the treasure map and the white jade key, he believed that Luo Ying must know where they were hidden.
That’s why there was the scene in the ruined temple in the southern suburbs outside the city, where the mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole is behind it.
Because Master Lan Huo attached so much importance to the treasure map and the white jade key, he did not show any anger towards Luo Ying who had just reprimanded him. He still had a smiling face and said, "Miss Luo, I think you must have misunderstood. I have always been a gentleman who always keeps my word. I am definitely not the kind of sinister person who goes back on his word!"
Seeing the lord of Tiger City, the Blue Fire Master who always claimed to be the only one in the world, being so humble to him, Luo Ying couldn't help but laugh a few times and snorted coldly, "Really? Is the Blue Fire Fake going to become the Blue Fire Master? If you are really a gentleman who sticks to his word, then kill them. Do you dare?"
Seeing Luo Ying deliberately humiliating them and saying that Master Lan Huo should kill Lan Qing and Jiang Yun, Lan Qing and Jiang Yun's faces were filled with anger and they were also shocked in their hearts.
Seeing Luo Ying's deliberate harassment and humiliation, Lan Huo Zhenren suddenly revealed his true colors. He stared at Luo Ying with anger on his face and said angrily: "Luo Ying, don't be shameless. Do you really think you are the eldest daughter of the Luo family? The Luo family has ceased to exist since the moment I entered Yecheng. I will give you one last chance. As long as you tell me where the second half of the treasure map and the white jade key are, I will agree to let you go. If you don't, I will kill you!"
“Hahahaha!” Hearing what Master Lan Huo said, Luo Ying was not afraid at all. Instead, he laughed a few times and said in a serious voice, “Look, look, you don’t deserve the word ‘real’ at all. You are a complete fake person and a hypocrite. You want to know the treasure map and white jade key of my Luo family? You are just wishful thinking. Go and daydream!”
Hearing Luo Ying's tough words, Jiang Yun rushed up with a face full of anger, slapped Luo Ying in the face again, and shouted: "Luo Ying, if you dare to disrespect the king, I will tear you apart! Tell me where the treasure map and the white jade key are! If you don't tell me, I will make you live a life worse than death!"
"Life is worse than death! If you have the guts, kill me. Killing me will make the Luo family's treasure become an eternal treasure!" Luo Ying was righteous and fearless.
"You! You are looking for death!" Jiang Yun gave Luo Ying a look of indignation and slapped his palms towards Luo Ying's head.
"Stop!" Master Lanhuo shouted loudly.
Seeing that Blue Fire Master had ordered him to stop again, Jiang Yun looked aggrieved and said, "My king, just let me kill this ugly woman who doesn't know what's good for her. Otherwise, she will think that we are afraid of her and dare not do anything to her. My king, look at her arrogant look!"
Jiang Yun had no idea how important the treasure map and the white jade key were to Master Lan Huo, so he didn't understand why Master Lan Huo stopped him and felt very unhappy.
Seeing the disappointment and grievance on Jiang Yun's face, Master Lan Huo said, "Jiang Yun, don't you think about it? If we kill her, wouldn't it be like letting the Luo family's treasure become an eternal mystery? If we kill her, how can we get the treasure map, how can we get the white jade key, and how can we find the treasure?"
After hearing what Master Lan Huo said, Jiang Yun realized the seriousness of the situation. He nodded and bowed hurriedly to admit his mistake to Master Lan Huo.
After saying that, Master Lanhuo looked at Luo Ying carefully. From what happened just now, he knew that Luo Ying was not easy to deal with and was not someone who would easily compromise, so he was thinking about whether there was any way to make Luo Ying voluntarily hand over the treasure map and the white jade key.
However, for a moment, Master Lanhuo fell into deep confusion and could not think of any solution.
Therefore, Master Lan Huo ordered Lan Qing and Jiang Yun to lock Luo Ying in the dungeon and send someone to watch him 24 hours a day!
Watching Luo Ying's back as he left the side hall, Master Lanhuo was still thinking hard about how to make Luo Ying willingly hand over the second half of the treasure map and the white jade key
While Master Lan Huo was full of doubts, Luo Ying was taken to the dungeon by Lan Qing and Jiang Yun.
The dungeon was dark, damp, eerie and terrifying, as if there was a pair of frightened eyes guarding the dungeon in every corner where there was no sunlight all day.
"Get in there!" Jiang Yun, who was holding Luo Ying, shouted and kicked Luo Ying into the dungeon.
The cell door was closed with a clang, and a big black lock locked the cell tightly without any gaps, as if not even a mosquito could not fly in.
Luo Ying, who was put into the prison, looked around the cell without any fear on her face, because she knew that Master Lan Huo would not do anything to her for the treasure map and the white jade key for the time being. Also because Master Lan Huo mentioned the treasure map and the white jade key, her father Luo Zheng's words rang in her ears again.
"Ying'er! You must remember that no matter what time it is, even when our Luo family encounters misfortune, we must not open the treasure, otherwise it will bring endless disasters."
When his father Luo Zheng told Luo Ying, Luo Ying asked his father the reason.
At first, Luo Zheng was not prepared to tell her, but later because of Luo Ying's persistent questioning, he told Luo Ying the real reason why he could not open the treasure.
Because the geographical location of the Luo family treasure is in a place with prosperous spiritual energy, the ancestors of the Luo family chose a place with prosperous spiritual energy so that the rare treasures in the treasure could absorb spiritual energy and turn into spiritual objects.
However, they did not take into account that all things on earth complement each other, and life and death are constantly alternating in the dark.
This place, which was once full of spiritual energy, turned into a place full of demonic energy overnight.
Back then, a patriarch of the Luo family took Luo Zheng into the treasure trove because the spiritual land had turned into a demonic land. They discovered an extremely surprising scene. In the end, the patriarch died in exchange for Luo Zheng's safe escape, and at the same time told Luo Zheng that he must never open the Luo family treasure again.
Because as the evil spirit grows stronger day by day, opening the treasure ten years later will turn the treasures that have been invaded by the evil spirit into evil spirits. At that moment, it will cause a huge disaster between heaven and earth, and from then on, the three realms will be in turmoil without distinction between the gods.
By then, the three levels of martial arts practice in Xuanwu Continent will be completely overturned and disrupted, triggering an unprecedented war of cultivation.
Moreover, before his death, the head of the family told Luo Zheng that in order to open the treasure again, he had to wait until the prosperous demonic energy turned back into the previous spiritual energy of cultivation.
Therefore, this is also the doubt that everyone in Xuanwu Continent has about the Luo family, because everyone who practices martial arts in Xuanwu Continent is always wondering why the Luo family members abandoned the treasure when they clearly knew that there was a golden armor that could go to heaven and earth.
Because they had no idea about the huge secret of the Luo family treasure, opening the door to the treasure would mean opening the prelude to a great war in the world of cultivation, triggering an unprecedented chaos in the world of cultivation.
