Emperor Zhao saw the words on the ground and said, "I can save you. How about the origin of this soul flag as the price?"

She wanted to know what the origin of this soul flag was, as it could hold the souls of so many cultivators and also launch the same attack as before.

When Gui Shi Niang heard her conditions, she was stunned. She originally wanted to live.

But when I thought about everything my fiancé and I had gone through, I suddenly lost the desire to live.

She wrote on the ground: No...

Emperor Zhao said coldly: "Then you will fend for yourself."

After saying this, the soul flag in her space began to become restless.

Emperor Qi took out the soul flag, only to see that the originally black soul flag had turned scarlet for some unknown reason.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and asked with great certainty, "You want me to save her?"

Gui Shi Niang looked up in shock, only to see the scarlet soul flag constantly shaking in Emperor Zhao's hand.

Ahao…

is it you?

After Emperor Qian sensed the Soul Banner's intention, he turned back to look at Gui Shi Niang and said, "Tell me the origin of this Soul Banner, and I will agree to its terms."

"Otherwise, this thing that could betray its master at any time will be destroyed immediately by this young master."

Tears welled up in Gui Shi Niang's eyes. She shook her head desperately and wrote on the ground: I said...

Emperor Zha then used his spiritual power to temporarily heal her throat. Gui Shi Niang endured the severe pain in her body and looked at the soul flag in her hand with sad eyes.

"He was made from the bones and blood of my fiancé..."

It turns out that ten thousand years ago, there was a rich girl named Shi Yi, whose nickname was Shi Niang.

She had been engaged to Li Hao, a son of an aristocratic family, since childhood. They grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and their love grew stronger than ever.

However, things happen unexpectedly. Later, the Li family fell into poverty, and the elders of the family died or fell ill overnight.

The Shi family, who had originally wanted to urge the marriage, immediately gave up their thoughts for the time being. Finally, after seeing that the Li family was hopeless, they decided to cancel the marriage with the Li family.

Shi Yi, who had a deep affection for Li Hao since childhood, was naturally unwilling. When she heard the news, she immediately started arguing with the head of the Shi family.

"Father, I have had a deep affection for Ahao since childhood, and I will not agree to cancel the engagement!" Shi Yi was supported by the maid beside her, sobbing with tears in her eyes.

Father Shi scolded: "The Li family is no longer the same Li family as before. What's the point of you disagreeing?"

"We raised you with great difficulty, making you proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, not to make you a shrew for others! Do you understand?!"

Shi Yi looked at her usually kind father in disbelief. She really didn't expect that these words would come out of her father's mouth.

She couldn't help but ask, "You were the one who made this engagement. Could it be that Father wants to go back on his word?!"

Father Shi immediately said, "So what if he breaks his promise? If his Li family is still the powerful Li family of the past, I will naturally not have such thoughts!"

"I'm telling you, your marriage must bring corresponding benefits to the family! Now that the Li family is down, Li Hao is nothing but a waste!"

Shi Yi felt a pang of pain in her heart when she heard this. "So my marriage is just a way for you to gain benefits?!"

Father Shi disagreed and even said righteously: "As a daughter of the Shi family, you don't want to use yourself to seek benefits for the family, and now you are still thinking about that loser of the Li family!"

"You really don't have any gratitude at all!"

"Father!" Shi Yi yelled, tears streaming down her face. She suppressed her pain and asked, "Am I your daughter, or am I just a bargaining chip you're using to cling to the rich and powerful?"

Father Shi snorted coldly, "So what if it is? So what if it isn't?! The engagement is cancelled!"

Shi Yi collapsed on the ground in despair. She didn't expect her father to be so cruel.

At this moment, the housekeeper of the Shi Mansion came to report, "Master, there is an immortal outside the door, saying that he wants to ask for a glass of water."

When Father Shi heard this, he immediately stood up and went to greet him.

It is rare for mortals like them to see an immortal. Now that an immortal has come to their house in person, even if he is just passing by, they have to welcome him into their house to have a seat.

When Father Shi arrived at the gate, he saw an elegant man in white clothes. "Oh, this must be the immortal."

"I am the patriarch of this Stone Mansion. The Immortal chose our Stone Mansion today. It truly brings honor to our humble abode. Hahahaha."

The monk bowed politely and said, "Master Shi, thank you for your kindness. I have been traveling here and the water I brought with me is gone. I just wanted to ask for a drink."

Father Shi quickly helped him up, winked at the people around him, and said to the monk, "Please come in, Immortal Master, please come in."

The monk did not hesitate and immediately followed him. When he saw the luxurious architecture of the stone mansion, he began to think about it.

He smiled faintly and said, "I heard that Patriarch Shi is the best businessman within this area of ​​100 miles. Now it seems that it is indeed true."

Father Shi was so happy when he was praised by him that he couldn't close his mouth. However, he still had to pretend, "No, no, Immortal, you are too kind."

At this moment, the two of them happened to run into Shi Yi who was being helped by a maid back to her courtyard.

After the monk saw Shi Yi's appearance clearly, he was stunned for a moment and blurted out, "What a wonderful person."

Father Shi glanced at Shi Yi and immediately had an idea in his mind: no matter how powerful the rich and powerful are, they cannot compare to those who can practice Taoism.

He asked tentatively, "Master, are you still unmarried?"

"This...haha, I was only devoted to cultivation in the past and never had any involvement in worldly affairs." The monk pretended to be embarrassed.

"I see, the person you just saw is my daughter. She is fifteen years old and is the right age for marriage."

Unexpectedly, the monk pretended not to understand and said, "Master Shi, what are you doing..."

Father Shi: "Haha, I was just saying this. After all, the immortal must be pure and unselfish. It's a pity for my daughter."

The monk asked curiously, "Where did you get that? A young lady like you is so beautiful, so she shouldn't have any trouble finding a husband."

Father Shi pretended to sigh and said, "My daughter has always been partial to the sons of immortals since she was young.

Unfortunately, I arranged a marriage for her with a good friend. Now that she has grown up, I am surprised to find out what my daughter wanted.

“I can’t bear to see my daughter suffer, so I have to postpone this marriage again and again.

It would be nice if the Li family could let my daughter live a good life, but they are now in poverty.

In order to use my Shi family's wealth to turn his life around, the young master of the Li family used the original engagement as a threat, forcing me to marry my daughter to him."

When Father Shi said this, he shook his head and sighed, "I am really helpless. The people from the Li family were still making trouble in the mansion."

The monk pretended to be surprised and said, "How could such a shameless person still exist in this world?"
