Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

To keep Gongsun Moxuan, we must keep Wu Chang.

"Thank you, sir."

Li Lan and Gongsun Moxuan both gave a slight bow.

Immediately, Xuan Yuechengqing led the two to open the cave.

"what!?"

However, as soon as Gongsun Moxuan stepped into the cave, she suddenly cried out in alarm and hurriedly retreated, her face turning pale. She exclaimed, "Snake! There's a snake!"

Li Lan and Xuan Yuecheng looked over and saw a large, snow-white snake, as thick as a thigh, lying lazily in the courtyard, flicking its tongue. When it saw the group, a cold glint flashed in its eyes, and it became wary, raising its head as if to attack.

Li Lan's expression darkened slightly. He had already realized that the snake was a demonic creature refined by the Celestial Master, and the malice in his eyes slowly surfaced.

Immediately, the giant snake seemed to sense some kind of threat and let out a violent hissing sound!

"What's wrong? Who are you? Don't startle my spirit snake!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out, and everyone turned around to see a middle-aged female cultivator rushing over.

"How is this going?"

Xuan Yuechengqing spoke with a gloomy expression.

"It's Lord Xuan Yue..."

Upon seeing Xuan Yue Cheng Qing, the middle-aged female cultivator said, "It's like this, these two Celestial Master Caves are just sitting empty anyway, so I had the Third Steward open them up so that my two spirit pets could move in and cultivate in these two caves. Is that alright?"

This woman's name was Zhou Xuanmei. She was an eighth-rank Celestial Master, and among the wild Celestial Masters recruited by the Xuan Yue family this time, her cultivation level was the highest.

Moreover, she was related to several deacons in the clan, so she had some privileges here on weekdays.

Xuan Yuecheng frowned slightly and said, "These two Celestial Master Caves already have owners. Move your pets away immediately!"

"Is there anyone here?"

Zhou Xuanmei was surprised and asked, "The Xuan Yue clan has recruited two more eighth-rank Celestial Masters? Where are they?"

Xuan Yuechengqing said calmly, "These two are the owners of this place."

Zhou Xuanmei immediately looked at Li Lan and Gongsun Moxuan, frowning as she said, "The two of them are at most ninth-rank Celestial Masters. Lord Cheng Qing, isn't this against the rules?"

Whether it's in accordance with the rules or not is not for you to say.

Xuan Yuechengqing was quite annoyed that the other party dared to be so impolite to him.

Zhou Xuanmei's eyes held a hint of resentment, but Xuan Yuechengqing was, after all, a family steward, so she had no choice but to say, "Fine, I'll take the spirit beast away right now."

"Two Celestial Masters, we have a long future ahead of us—"

As she spoke, she gave Li Lan and Gongsun Moxuan a cold look!

Clearly, she didn't dare to blame Xuan Yuechengqing, but she blamed Li Lan and Gongsun Moxuan for it.

With a wave of her hand, the snow-white snake shrank rapidly, transforming into a streak of light and flying into her sleeve. At the same time, from another residence, a blue light flew over; it was a blue butterfly with eerie wings.

"You two can stay here. If you have any questions, you can contact the family at any time."

Xuan Yuechengqing spoke.

The two thanked him, and then he left immediately.

"Brother Wu Chang, that woman just now... was really amazing."

Gongsun Moxuan couldn't help but speak.

Although she disliked Zhou Xuanmei's attitude, the other party was clearly not weak; she was a genuine eighth-rank Celestial Master!

Having just joined the Xuan Yue clan, I immediately clashed with such a powerful Celestial Master, which made her quite worried about me.

"She's not that impressive. If you improve your Mo family's techniques a bit more, you could defeat her with your ninth-grade strength."

Li Lan spoke calmly.

Upon hearing this, Gongsun Moxuan was instantly startled. She looked at Li Lan in disbelief and said, "Brother Wu Chang, you, you..."

"Are you also a descendant of the ancient people?"

Their race has existed for a long time. Under the rule of the Eternal Royal Court, the various remnant tribes have long been outside the orthodoxy, living and dying on their own, and many have already perished.

Even those tribes that still exist have forgotten their origins over the endless river of time. They cannot explain what their ancestors were, cannot remember the past, and cannot find the future. So they live in a daze, numb and confused, until their tribes gradually wither away.
