Yu Jinchen and his wife are truly soulmates, and as soon as Xu Qingman cried out that there was danger, he took out a high-grade teleportation talisman.
In the blink of an eye, the family was teleported hundreds of miles away, and with lightning speed, the couple worked together to knock their family unconscious and bring them to the Qingxuan Space.
Fortunately, they ran fast. Although Xu Qingman had concealed this place with a top-grade array plate, a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Nine Yang Sect who kept a treasure-hunting rat discovered something unusual.
Although neither the man nor the rat could be sure what treasure was hidden here, the array plate was spotted by a careful observer.
The fact that they could use advanced array plates, and more than one set at that, meant that the contents inside were definitely not simple. He first tried to break the arrays himself, but after spending seven or eight days, he still couldn't find a way.
Fearing that delaying for too long would cause problems, the Nascent Soul cultivator returned to his sect as quickly as possible and invited his master, who was already at the Integration stage, to come over.
It was also because the Xu family was lucky that the two people arrived at the spirit stone mine not long after they entered the space, and discovered that it was a top-grade spirit stone mine.
Although the spiritual veins are still there, the top-grade spirit stones have been completely mined out, and even the high-grade spirit stones have been almost completely depleted. It would take thousands of years for top-grade spirit stones to regenerate.
The Nascent Soul cultivator instructed his disciple to guard the area, while he himself followed the aura left behind by the Xu family.
When he finally caught up with the Xu family and they entered the space, he could no longer sense their presence. He assumed they had escaped using a top-grade teleportation talisman, and he was so angry he almost fainted.
He swore in his heart that he would never let himself be caught, otherwise he would make those people grind their bones to dust and suffer a terrible death.
The Nascent Soul stage cultivator, Ancestor Mingde, was no benevolent person. Otherwise, he could not have reached the Nascent Soul stage at over five hundred years old without any assistance and solely through his own efforts.
Moreover, he was able to become one of the elders of the Nine Yang Sect among a group of Void Transformation and Tribulation Transcending cultivators. It is evident that his temperament and abilities are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
After hiding in the space, the couple didn't dare to go out for a while. When they finally had enough of counting spirit stones and getting cramps, they simply calmed down and started cultivating.
Five years had passed in the space, five days had passed outside, and Yu Jinchen had also advanced his cultivation to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm before the couple finally left the space.
After discovering that no one was guarding the place, they quickly left the Sunset Mountains from the other side and found a deserted place to release their family members.
"Mommy, I'm so hungry! Did I sleep for a long time? I don't remember."
After sweetly coaxing her mother, Little Candy turned to Little Stone and asked, "Brother, Dad and Mom were so busy they forgot to call me. Why didn't you call me to get up for dinner?"
Little Stone was also completely bewildered. He was hungry too, and he seemed to have just woken up.
"Mother, I'm hungry too. Please bring out some food for me and my sister."
Although they were very puzzled, Xu Maoye and his wife, as well as Xu Jingheng and his wife, insisted on waiting until they had filled their stomachs before looking at their daughter (and granddaughter) and her husband, waiting for them to give them an explanation.
“Uh, Grandfather, Grandmother, Father, Mother, we encountered a mind-controlling monster as soon as we came out. All six of you were unconscious at the time, and we only just woke you up.”
Although it was still a bit strange, since Xu Qingman had said so, the group stopped asking. They trusted their own child; she wouldn't lie without a reason.
Seeing that the matter had passed, Xu Qingman breathed a deep breath and smiled at her husband.
Then, she began to teach her two little ones, "Little Stone, Little Candy, you must not tell anyone about us digging for spirit stones yesterday, or else someone will take you away from your mother."
Little Candy asked sweetly, "Mommy, can't I tell Uncle either?"
"Hmm, no, can you do it, baby?"
"Yes, we can." The two children nodded in unison.
Although scaring children is wrong, this is a huge deal. If those big shots find out, my family will never have peace again.
After leaving the mountains, the family came to a small town called Anlai, where they rented a small courtyard. Every day, besides cultivating their skills, they would occasionally go out for a meal.
But on this day, they heard some frightening news and had to decide to hide for a while.
It turned out that Xu Qingman's palpitations after digging up the spirit stones that day were indeed a sign of impending danger.
I heard that some time ago, the Nine Yang Sect discovered a top-grade spiritual vein in the Sunset Mountains, but unfortunately, by the time they arrived, all the top-grade spiritual stones inside had already been dug up.
According to the elders of the Nine Yang Sect, the number of top-grade spirit stones that were dug up was at least tens of millions.
After the figure of tens of millions was revealed, cultivators from all walks of life went crazy, speculating about which lucky person had received it.
You should know that tens of millions of top-grade spirit stones would be enough to cover the expenses of the entire sect for decades, even for a large sect like the Nine Yang Sect.
Now, many cultivators are secretly starting to investigate the identity of the person who obtained the treasure, hoping to get a share of the spoils.
After hearing the news, Yu Jinchen only told his wife in private, not daring to let his four elders know, for fear that they would be too nervous and arouse suspicion.
Upon hearing the number tens of millions, Xu Qingman turned pale with fright. So many spirit stones, and all of them were top-grade spirit stones. How many people could resist the temptation?
After discussing it, the two decided to return to Sifang City first, and then the whole family would go into seclusion to cultivate. As long as they could get through this period and wait for the matter to cool down, they would be safe.
The most dangerous place is the safest place. No one should have thought that they would dare to live right under the nose of the Nine Yang Sect at this time.
Besides, they don't dare to run away now. I guess at this time, everyone who leaves Sifang City will be targeted by those people, right?
So, I have no choice but to do the opposite; if I go inside, I shouldn't be noticed.
Indeed, Xu Qingman and her husband made the right move. Everyone who left Sifang City during this period of time has been under surveillance.
How could Ancestor Mingde swallow this insult after missing out on so many top-grade spirit stones? In his view, all spirit stone mines within the territory of Sifang City should belong to the Nine Yang Sect.
After returning to his sect, he first arranged for his disciples to guard the spiritual vein, and then he had the news spread and increased the number of spirit stones several times over.
After thoroughly muddying the waters, he refused to believe that the man could possibly hide anywhere else.
Besides, in his opinion, it's impossible for anyone to resist using so many top-grade spirit stones at once.
As long as the person hasn't left the area of Sifang City, he can find them.
But he didn't expect that Xu Qingman's family could actually hold back. Not only did they not use the top-grade spirit stones, but they also didn't go out. Instead, they stayed in Sifang City.
