The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 515 Return, Everything is Ready to Be Done

Wujing, Tongtiange.

Lang Jiuchuan led Jiang Che and the others out of the Yin Road, and they ran into A Piao right away. When he saw her, his eyes widened, and he stared at her for a long time before finally saying, "I don't have anything else to ask, but, what kind of shady relationship do you have with my master?"

Both Jiang Che and Fu Qi glanced at them curiously, their ears perked up; gossip isn't just human nature.

They want to know too.

"We've known each other since we were little, and now we're so close we'd entrust our lives to each other. Let's just say that." Lang Jiuchuan blinked and said, "I also have a share in Tongtian Pavilion."

The ghost was taken aback.

"Try being shameless again?" Fengya's voice came from the black hole behind him: "Not only did you not get paid for saving your life, but you also want my things?"

Lang Jiuchuan said sullenly, "Even if you are in the realm of nothingness, you cannot run rampant in the human world. Keeping it around will only attract dust. Let me use it, at least I can make good use of it."

"You've probably forgotten who coined the term 'collecting addiction'," Fengya said with a cool sneer.

Lang Jiuchuan touched his nose. Who? Her innocent words when she was ten years old. But she wasn't wrong. He had cultivated for thousands of years. From ancient times to the present, even if he dug up other people's graves, how much more than this little bit of treasure would he have found?
She's not wrong to call him a collector.

Lang Jiuchuan said, "Don't be angry, I'll make incense for you to do good deeds."

Fengya did not appear in the private room. The Void Realm was a no-man's-land. He could be the master, but he would still be rejected if he came to the human world or the underworld. Every small world had its own rules.

He forcibly seized Lang Jiuchuan's soul to reassemble it, already paying a terrible price. Now, if he continues to come and go as he pleases or does anything here, it will be seen as a provocation, and he will be the one to disappear.

This is also one of the reasons why Lang Jiuchuan doesn't let him stay by her side. He has already helped her enough; the rest of the journey is up to her to walk.

The incense of merit was her most meager form of repayment.

Fengya said calmly, "Don't waste your soul power. Although you have undergone Nirvana and rebirth, you are still no stronger than Tantai Qing. Save your strength for fighting back. Don't be a fool!"

He didn't say anything about living well after being reborn, or thinking about revenge like throwing an egg against a rock, because that's unrealistic. If Lang Jiuchuan were the kind of person who would listen to orders, then he wouldn't stand a chance!
Moreover, she was the energy source that Tantai Qingzhi was determined to obtain, so how could he easily let her go? He was probably already secretly preparing a big move!

Lang Jiuchuan smiled and said, "Making some incense for good deeds doesn't take much effort. I'll take the credit for it."

The Grand Preceptor is not easy to deal with because he has cultivated for a long time and his Taoist magic is boundless. More importantly, he is the faith of many people in the Kingdom of Da Dan, and the power of this faith is one of the sources of his power.

In her previous life, Lang Jiuchuan gained merit but was suppressed and used as an energy blood bank. She went to Pancheng to sever this connection, but now, with a brand new Dao body and her soul united, she needs the power of faith.

She needs to have the means to compete with him.

Therefore, she must also stand before the world, make a name for herself, gain merit, and steal his faith and fortune.

Fengya said nothing more, only offering a word of advice before retreating. Lang Jiuchuan turned her head and noticed that everyone's eyes were sparkling. When they suddenly saw her turn around, they all looked away, or touched the paper-cut window decorations. They were so pretty; it was almost New Year's, so they should change to something even more festive.

The ghost's mouth was stretched so wide it looked like an old father's. Although it was a bit disrespectful, the two of them were really like enemies, so cute and adorable. I loved watching it.

Fu Qi asked, "Fourth Master previously moved all of the Rong family's storerooms to Tongtian Pavilion. What are your plans for dealing with them?"

Lang Jiuchuan's expression darkened slightly as he said, "The Ren residence has been abandoned for many years. We should ask Shen Qinghe for an introduction to buy it and renovate it. We should also build cenotaphs for Ren Yao and the young lady, and repair the Ren family's ancestral hall. We should hire three or four people to guard the residence and manage the ancestral hall."

Although their souls are gone, erecting shrines and recording their names to leave some incense offerings is to prevent them from being completely forgotten and forcing no one to know that they ever existed.

"First, we'll get the house back and repair it. Before the New Year, I'll personally go and erect a cenotaph for them and make a few tombstones." This is all she can do, not entirely because of karma, but simply because they were once from Langjiuchuan and share the same fate.

Fu Qi agreed, which was only right.

Lang Jiuchuan then said, "The Rong family has fallen, but not all its members have been wiped out. Not everyone in the Rong family is evil. A Piao, can you help me find out where they all went and send back one or two legitimate magical artifacts of the Rong family as heirlooms?"

The ghost raised an eyebrow and said, "It's fine if you don't wipe them out completely, but aren't you afraid they'll come back?"

"Dynasties rise and fall in a mere three hundred years, and so do people and families; they too will eventually come to an end. If I fall in the future, or my family declines after my death, it is simply the natural order of things, the cycle of cause and effect." Lang Jiuchuan shook his head and said, "Besides, not all members of the Rong family were involved in the tragedy that befell me and my sister. Those directly responsible have already met their end, and that is enough. The Rong family's decline is not solely due to my appearance; the cause and effect were already predetermined. If they can restore their ancestral glory in the future, then it is their destiny that has arrived."

She is not a ruthless killer, nor will she take her anger out on the innocent. However, she will not let the mastermind go free out of pity for the innocent. The prosperity of one is the prosperity of all, and the loss of one is the loss of all. Every family should have this understanding.

Perhaps in the future, she and the Lang family will be the same.

Who dares to say they will be remembered for eternity and never be forgotten? Who dares to say they will remain silent for generations without ever making a difference? It all depends on the times.

Since Lang Jiuchuan said so, A Piao naturally wouldn't go against her wishes. After all, she said that she had a share in Tongtian Pavilion, and her master hadn't said anything. What was wrong with using resources?

He also cleverly brought up information about the new emperor, Tantai Yan. The new emperor was only sixteen years old. Regardless of whether he knew how to manage state affairs, powerful ministers would teach him from the sidelines, and he could learn slowly. That would be enough.

Rather than a new emperor, he's more like a mascot.

Lang Jiuchuan thought so too. After looking at the new emperor's birth chart, he did some calculations with his fingertips and said, "He has the characteristics of an emperor. His birth chart is noble and pure, with the Tianfu star in his life palace. His birth chart is also balanced. He is indeed a man of imperial destiny."

"I'm not sure about the ones before that, but these are the birth dates of the first three emperors." The ghost handed over another piece of paper.

Lang Jiuchuan took the paper, glanced at it, and said, "These are all carefully selected imperial destinies with strong fortune. He has truly put in a lot of effort for the sake of the Great Dan nation's destiny."

As soon as she finished speaking, the communication jade talisman belonging to Gong Tinglan activated. She listened to the hand seal and learned that he had traveled to various places and noticed something was wrong. Two families that had been passed down for thousands of years had been wiped out in the past two years, and another family had only one surviving member, who was also about to die. He wanted her to go and take a look.

Lang Jiuchuan's eyes turned cold, and he subconsciously looked in the direction of the imperial mausoleum.

　If I can't write well, I need to find a new inspiration and let my imagination run wild!
