Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 963 963: Blood Red Dragon Spirit

Chapter 963

In the following days, the news of the Fang family's destruction did not die down at all; instead, it seemed to intensify, as if some unseen force were fanning the flames.
Qin Yi was not idle, yet he was not overly busy either.
He instructed others to start building a treasure vault on the mountain, preparing to move the contents of the Su and Fang family vaults there.
For example, at this moment, he was leisurely pushing a twin stroller, taking his two precious daughters for a spin around the square.
The two little ones were three months old, and because Qin Yi used the Twin Flowers gifted by the Azure Dragon to nurture their bodies, and occasionally used energy movement to help nurture their meridians and bones, the two little ones, despite only being three months old, had already shown distinct differences from ordinary people.
For example, at this moment, they were tumbling inside the stroller, using their hands and feet to try and climb out, scaring Qin Yi into breaking out in a cold sweat from time to time.
Qin Yi didn't want them to stand out too much, starting cultivation at such a young age. He only hoped they would have good health, grow up healthy and happy, and then receive education like ordinary children.
Their future paths would be up to them to choose; if they desired to cultivate, he would give them everything. If they wanted to venture into business, his wife would teach them hand in hand.
Qin Yi took some time to make a phone call to Bai Siyin, instructing him to handle a matter.
...
Several days later, a piece of news shook the entire Longxia Qi Refiner community.
Someone discovered an ancient ruin in the northern Shilin Mountains; its era was unknown, but every night, the ruin would emit a blazing light, dazzling and brilliant.
Word spread among the Qi Refiners that within this ancient ruin lies a Blood Red Dragon Spirit aged over a thousand years.
The Blood Red Dragon Spirit is a heaven and earth treasure, rare in the world, and most people only knew of it from ancient texts.
edly, the Blood Red Dragon Spirit forms when a Divine Dragon falls, and the dragon spirit attaches itself to a heaven and earth unique flower to create a Blood Red Dragon Spirit. Regardless of one's cultivation, consuming the Blood Red Dragon Spirit can cause an immediate breakthrough, and a person with extraordinary talent might breakthrough several layers consecutively.
To Qi Refiners, nothing is more attractive than raising one's cultivation.
Thus, as soon as this news broke, the news of Qin Yi's destruction of the Fang family got overshadowed.
And Qin Yi, on that very night, left Tiger Roar Mountain, destination unknown.
With the news of the Blood Red Dragon Spirit, all the Qi Refiners turned red-eyed; who wouldn't want to seize such a heaven and earth treasure?
...
Mo Family, Main Hall.
Mo Honghai sat in the Family Head seat.
The Mo Family Elders sat on both sides beneath him.
Mo Honghai's eyes were filled with greed.
"Is the news accurate?"
Mo Fushui nodded and said, "The news came from an influential figure; he discovered the Blood Red Dragon Spirit, but there are array sealings around the ancient ruins, and the inside is fraught with danger, so they couldn't get in. Instead, they spread the news.
Family Head, I have sent someone to verify this matter, and it shouldn't be fake. Recently, it's been spreading throughout the community; many have confirmed it with the involved parties. Now, whether it's small or large factions or hidden families, all have their eyes on the Blood Red Dragon Spirit."
Mo Honghai's breathing quickened; he had been stuck at the Great Perfection of the Divine Separation Stage for several years, and the Blood Red Dragon Spirit could certainly help him break through.
Unconsciously, he glanced at Mo Wuji; if he successfully broke through to the Body Integration Realm, it would be his call to whom the Family Head position gets passed.
In the Mo Family, among the three ancestors, only one has reached the Body Integration Realm, while the other two are half-step into it. If he broke through, even the Mo Family ancestors would have to respect him.
Mo Tianheng said, "Family Head, regardless of the truth of this matter, I think we have to make a move. That little thief Qin Yi exterminated the Su and Fang families, causing our Hidden Families to lose face. The forces attached to us, the Guardian Family, have already started to waver.
Moreover, some have proposed breaking away from our Mo Family, not wanting to get involved, fearing Qin Yi might wipe them out. So, our action this time serves to show those people our strength and to deter those whose minds are wavering."
"Exactly, it's time to showcase the strength of our Mo Family; or else others will think we can't compete with Qin Yi and underestimate us," a Mo Family Elder said sternly.
Mo Wuji's eyes flickered slightly; why did the Blood Red Dragon Spirit appear at this time? He absolutely could not let Mo Honghai get it; if Mo Honghai broke through, his own little life would be in grave danger.
Mo Honghai's intention to kill him was more severe than anyone else's.
What should he do?
Wait?
He suddenly thought of something; Qin Yi mentioned he would find a way to lure Mo Honghai out of the Mo Family. Now, the very thing Mo Honghai needed the most appeared; isn't that too much of a coincidence?
Could it be... Mo Wuji's eyes narrowed slightly.
He considered a possibility; all this might be a trap set by Qin Yi against Mo Honghai.
If so, this strategy truly was admirable. If only Mo Honghai were told of the Blood Red Dragon Spirit discovery alone, with Mo Honghai's cautious nature, he might be tempted but not thoroughly convinced. Yet, when everyone spreads the news, Mo Honghai has no choice but to believe.
Brother Qin, if this truly is your trap, it's truly astonishing. To deal with one person and manipulate the entire Qi Refiner community, such thoughtfulness and strategy are unmatched.
But Mo Wuji was still uncertain if this was Qin Yi's trap. However, regardless, this was an opportunity. Even if it wasn't a trap from Qin Yi, he could take this chance to kill Mo Honghai.
What he needed to do now was to find a way to lure Mo Honghai out of the Mo Family.
"Young Master remains silent; if you have any thoughts, do share them," Mo Honghai said warmly to Mo Wuji, his gaze kindly, as if looking at a cherished junior.
Mo Wuji wasn't expecting Mo Honghai to ask him suddenly and was slightly startled. Seeing the warm, subtly probing smile on Mo Honghai's face, he felt a chill from his bones.
Only he knew this smile hid a blade ready to pierce his heart at any moment.
Mo Wuji glanced at the surrounding Elders, then stood up, cupping his hands in salute, saying, "Family Head, I believe the Elders' suggestions make sense. Regardless of whether there truly is a Blood Red Dragon Spirit, we ought to make a trip.
If one person says there's a Blood Red Dragon Spirit, we may not believe it, but if ten people say so, there's a fifty percent chance it's true. Moreover, we verified with the involved parties and confirmed that the Blood Red Dragon Spirit indeed exists.
As the Young Master of the Mo Family, I cannot stand by and watch this Blood Red Dragon Spirit fall into others' hands. Thus, I ask the Family Head to allow me to go to the northern Shilin Mountains and bring back the Blood Red Dragon Spirit."
The Elders looked at Mo Wuji with appreciative eyes; for this courage and boldness, he would surely lead the Mo Family to greater glory in the future.
Mo Honghai, however, had a flicker of suspicion in his eyes because he knew Mo Wuji wasn't as simple as he appeared. He had once told Mo Tianhao to find an opportunity to kill Mo Wuji, always feeling Mo Wuji was biding his time, and might become a major threat in the future.
But, he didn't expect Mo Tianhao wouldn't manage to kill Mo Wuji, instead, dying himself in the Secret Realm.
However, upon learning that Mo Wuji mastered the Painting Sword, which hadn't been accomplished by anyone in the Mo Family in hundreds of years, he knew his instinct was right, Mo Wuji was not simple.
