Chapter 814: Extra 4: 51

Just as Xiao Jiu dealt with the stiff corpse and obtained that inner dan, behind him, inside the stone coffin, yin wind gusted.

Xiao Jiu turned his head and happened to see a blood dragon open its bloody maw, lunging at him to bite!

That blood dragon was not a poisonous snake transformed, but the carved coffin dragon at the bottom of the coffin; after absorbing the blood water, its blood and corpse qi condensed into form.

The poisonous snake, meanwhile, took advantage of this opportunity, using the little white tiger and the Meng family ancestral tomb to shed its skin like a golden cicada.

If all went well, at the moment the blood dragon attacked Xiao Jiu, the poisonous snake should already have been inside the Meng family ancestral tomb.

Just as Xiao Jiu was about to strike and disperse that blood dragon, a dragon roar suddenly rang out in the tomb chamber.

A strong force suddenly appeared behind the blood dragon.

Bang!

Blood mist spread, but was instantly suppressed back into the coffin.

The sudden change made Xiao Jiu's heart thump wildly.

The next moment, she saw…… a huge golden dragon head!

The dragon head seemed to have pierced straight through the tomb chamber and descended from midair, looking down at Xiao Jiu from above.

The dragon head was too close.

Xiao Jiu could even feel his breath.

His breath was very light and slow, perhaps because the dragon head was too huge, giving an overwhelming sense of oppression that made Xiao Jiu forget to breathe.

Xiao Jiu was about to raise her hand to touch the dragon head.

To touch him.

She hadn't touched him in reality for a long time.

Over eight years?

Or over nine years?

Xiao Jiu suddenly couldn't quite remember.

But before Xiao Jiu could touch the dragon head, a wave of dizziness spun her.

When Xiao Jiu steadied herself again, she found herself at the head of the continuous ridge of Yingjun Mountain.

Standing here, she could take in the feng shui layout of both banks of the water flow at a glance.

Xiao Jiu immediately noticed that the protruding 'snake head' on this bank of the water was gone.

The feng shui layout of that 'snake head' had originally been created by the poisonous snake.

If the 'True Dragon Enters the Head' feng shui pattern succeeded, the snake head would turn into a dragon head and would fly up from here.

If it failed, this would be its retreat.

The snake head would head straight for the Meng family ancestral tomb.

Liu Junyan brought Xiao Jiu out, but then disappeared himself.

Xiao Jiu knew Liu Junyan had gone to chase the poisonous snake.

At that moment, at the location of the Meng family ancestral tomb, a seven-colored light shot up into the sky.

Immediately after, a painful hiss echoed across both banks.

Everyone on both banks—the Meng family, Hui Moqiong and his subordinates, including Fang Chuanzong guarding the perimeter—saw it.

At the moment that seven-colored light shone, a small pagoda suddenly appeared above the Meng family ancestral tomb, then kept growing larger and larger… until it was as big as a mound, as a mountain…

The poisonous snake hissed, its long, thick tail stretching out from under the pagoda, constantly beating and struggling.

This process lasted for a good while.

Probably three or four minutes.

During those three or four minutes, everyone who witnessed this moment was utterly stunned, motionless, as if their thoughts were gripped by an invisible pair of hands, unable to think.

Only Xiao Jiu, standing on the ridge's head, laughed.

When she had Old Meng fetch the Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda from the Qingquan Daoist Temple, she had already planned all of this.

As the saying goes, 'Pagoda suppresses river demons'; although this poisonous snake is not a river demon, it is still a great demon.

The great demon came through the water, heading straight for the Meng family ancestral tomb.

He had intended to devour the little white tiger, completely drain her spiritual qi, then use the Meng family's fortune to escape, but he didn't expect that a Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda awaited him in the Meng family ancestral tomb.

The poisonous snake was suppressed under the Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda, constantly struggling.

As it struggled, the Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda rapidly shrank again.

When the seven-colored light faded, the Seven Treasure Exquisite Pagoda had returned to its original size, and the poisonous snake had vanished.

Xiao Jiu had instructed Old Meng that, no matter what happened on the ancestral tomb side, no one was to be allowed near.

This concerned the lives of several generations of the Meng family, and even the fortune of later generations; Old Meng would naturally obey.

Although there were variables, they were all under control.

Xiao Jiu was very satisfied.

But when she lowered her head and saw the golden luopan in her hand, she felt worried.

One lapse despite many precautions.

This golden luopan failed to be placed back into the dragon's mouth.

At that moment, the needle of the golden luopan began to turn.

As it turned, Xiao Jiu only felt the mountain range beneath her feet moving, following the needle of the golden luopan.

Dragon roars came from underground, one after another.

Just as, over the years, each time Xiao Jiu was drawn into the dream realm, she had experienced.

It was Liu Junyan!

He was now sinking into the earth's veins, clarifying this stretch of the earth's veins in the Zhe region.

When a force attracted the gold astrolabe and it slipped from Xiao Jiu's hand, Xiao Jiu did not go to catch it.

She knew that the gold astrolabe would naturally return to where it belonged.

Xiao Jiu transformed into her true phoenix form, circled once above Seal Army Mountain, then dove down toward the place where Hui Moqiong was.

She did not return to the ancient tomb to look for Gu Ya; she trusted the people around her, and she also trusted Liu Junyan.

Sure enough, when Xiao Jiu landed beside the car, she saw Gu Ya already lying in the back seat.

Whether from excessive fright or utter exhaustion, her body weak, she fell into a deep sleep.

Hui Moqiong was extremely agitated, he kept asking Xiao Jiu: "Is it Seventh Lord? Xiao Jiu, have you seen Seventh Lord? Has he come back? Why didn't I see him?"

Xiao Jiu did not answer any of Hui Moqiong's questions.

Because she was also feeling depressed.

In the tomb chamber, the dragon's head had clearly appeared, but it did not let her touch it.

Until the mountain stopped trembling, the dragon's roar faded, even the rain ceased, and everything returned to calm, Liu Junyan still did not appear.

He... he seems to have already left.

He didn't even say a single 'goodbye' to Xiao Jiu.

Saying she wasn't angry is impossible.

Was it that he didn't recognize himself, or that he didn't want to acknowledge himself?

What the hell is this guy doing?!

Her mood was very unpleasant.

As a result, when Xiao Jiu went to the Meng Family Ancestral Tomb to retrieve the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and sensed that the poisonous snake and the little white tiger were both locked inside the pagoda, she couldn't feel happy.

The little white tiger is a spiritual beast, but having had too much spiritual qi sucked away, it is extremely weak, lying on a tiny spot in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, eyes closed, resting, looking pitiful.

But it's fine; Xiao Jiu will send her to the Feng Clan, where she will cultivate and grow up.

As for that poisonous snake, it is locked inside the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and will later be refined.

No matter how you say it, this is also a great demon; the inner elixir obtained after refining it can be worth a lot of money.

This trip, the harvest was quite abundant.

The Meng Family naturally felt grateful to Xiao Jiu.

Although no money was mentioned when pawning, the Meng Family, having received a great favor from Yin Dang Hang, forcibly stuffed a large sum of money into Xiao Jiu's hands.

Xiao Jiu couldn't refuse, so she let Hui Moqiong take it, recording it in Yin Dang Hang's total accounts, to be divided as year-end dividends for everyone.

Hui Moqiong was naturally pleased.

Gu Ya had already woken up, and without regard for her parents' or husband's concern, she stumbled out and flung herself into Xiao Jiu's arms.

She said nothing, yet everything was conveyed in silence.

Xiao Jiu gently patted Gu Ya's back and urged: "Take good care of your body, and welcome your baby in the best condition…"
