The Fragrance Falls Ninefold

Chapter 222 Mother’s letter (1)

The head of the Long family breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Yan Xiangluo didn't insist on letting Ji Jiuzhong participate. If she really insisted, I'm afraid we really couldn't talk amicably.

 Let alone Ji Jiuzhong, who is just Yan Xiangluo's fiancé, even if he is her husband, he is not qualified to participate in such confidential affairs of the Long family.

"Okay, I'll ask the housekeeper to come over and invite you over during dinner." The head of the Long family said again.

“No need, dinner will be delivered to our yard and we can eat it ourselves.” Yan Xiangluo didn’t want to eat with some unwanted people, which would affect her appetite.

The head of the Long family did not insist, "Okay."

After agreeing, he left. He was going to find the elders to discuss how to talk to Yan Xiangluo tomorrow and how to get her to agree to open the box. And things like what if she could actually open the box.

After the head of the Long family left, the two of them went back to their rooms to meditate and practice. The time for practice passed quickly.

Yan Xiangluo felt very emotional. The spiritual energy here was indeed very rich, and absorbing it was twice the result with half the effort. In one afternoon, she estimated that it was equivalent to the accumulated spiritual energy accumulated in ten days of practicing outside.

 In such a cultivation environment, if the cultivation level is not high enough, there are only two reasons. One is that the talent is too poor, and it is impossible to gain so much spiritual energy. Another thing is that I don’t work hard enough.

The dinner was brought by the butler himself. Although there were not as many dishes as the lunch banquet, there were still ten dishes. Each dish was not very large, but it could be seen that it was done very carefully.

The two had dinner together again, and Ji Jiuzhong found that he liked this feeling very much.

 Two people in a small courtyard, doing the most ordinary things together, made him feel a joyful feeling that he had never experienced before. This must be the feeling of happiness!

 After dinner, the two drank tea for a while and chatted for a while. After it got completely dark outside, they went back to their rooms to rest.

Ji Jiuzhong was still practicing in the room. Yan Xiangluo stopped practicing because she was worried about the things in the secret compartment of the bed. She put down the bed curtains and pretended to be asleep.

After all the consciousness that secretly searched her had withdrawn, she lifted up the quilt and touched the hidden compartment that she was familiar with. Sure enough, she touched the secret compartment switch that was the same as her bed.

 She immediately knelt down on the bed, wrapped herself in a quilt, then took out a lighting bead, drilled it into the tight quilt, opened the secret compartment, and found that there was something inside.

It is a letter with the words "My daughter Xiangluo personally expresses my sincere greetings".

The font was very familiar to her. It was indeed a letter left by her mother. Yan Xiangluo took out the letter with some excitement and opened it under the light of the beads.

"Xiao Luo'er, when you read this letter, you must have had to come to Long's house for some reasons. They arranged for you to live in your mother's room. They must have wanted to find out something, Xiao Luo'er. Because of their cleverness, their efforts must have been in vain. The nine families were demoted from the high continent, and they must have done something extremely sinful, so that the family was implicated, although the Long family was the only one who was framed and wronged. However, after six hundred years of frustration, Yan Xiangluo could hear the reluctance and helplessness in the tone of her mother's letter.

"Xiao Luo'er, I hope that the secret box left for you will not be used in case of emergency. The reason why the Long family is so feared in the higher continent that they want to get rid of the entire Long family is because of the control passed down by blood from generation to generation. The power of the soul is too mysterious. The higher the level of cultivation, the more terrifying the power. They cannot learn this power of soul control, and they can only be demoted to a lower continent. , are already the result of our ancestors being strong enough.”

Yan Xiangluo was shocked. It turned out that the soul-controlling power of the Long family could not be learned by people without the blood of the Long family. She thought it was just that people with the blood of the Long family had better talents.

"The ancestors of the Long family tried their best to keep their bloodline alive. In fact, it is a good choice for the Long family to stay here. Luo'er doesn't have to worry about this being my mother's birthplace. There are relatives of my mother's blood here who want to do things for them. What. A family must first be able to save the lives of its descendants before they can talk about anything else. What the Long family lacks now is the strength and ability to protect their descendants. Under such circumstances, staying here is the best choice for the Long family. "

Only then did Yan Xiangluo understand why her parents didn't break the trap that trapped the nine families.

 There are two reasons.

 One reason is that eight of the nine families have indeed committed unforgivable crimes, and the descendants they have taught have few good conduct, and they do not want them to return to the higher continent to harm the people there. Descendants with good moral character and talents can naturally go back with their own strength. Others should just live here honestly.

 The other and most important thing is that my mother wants to protect the bloodline of the Long family and pass it on.

This special ability of the Long family has made the people of the higher continent so fearful. After living in the lower continent for six hundred years, their cultivation strength can no longer be compared with the people of the higher continent. At this time, if the entire Long family returns to the higher continent, If they go to the mainland, they are just like ants in their eyes. If they don't want the Long family to become stronger again, the best way is to completely destroy the Long family. Then the Long family will be wiped out.

My mother's worries were the same as Ji Jiuzhong's, and Yan Xiangluo became more determined not to break the trap.

 She then looked down.

“Xiao Luo’er has been smart since he was a child. Although our parents are forced to let our baby grow up alone, we believe that our little Luo’er will grow up as our parents expect.”

A happy smile appeared on Yan Xiangluo's face. At least she didn't disappoint her parents now.

"The box that Xiao Luo'er was asked to return to the Long family contains the secret of the rise of the Long family. This box was obtained by the ancestors of the Long family when they received the inheritance of the power of soul control. The ancestors left a message, saying that the ancestors of the Long family had When he got this box, a voice told him that the talent of soul control would be passed down from generation to generation among the descendants of the Long family. The descendants of the Long family who can open this box must be the one with the strongest talent and will become the strongest. The ability to control souls.”

Yu Xiang realized that this was how the Long family's power of controlling souls came from. What about other families? Are their skills passed down by blood also passed down from generation to generation because of various opportunities?

With doubts, Yan Xiangluo continued to read.

"Because of the words left by the ancestors, every generation of the Long family has made it their mission to open this box. No matter how talented they are, any descendant who inherits the soul-controlling power of the Long family will try to open this box. But until now No descendant can open it. Therefore, the Long family has planted a demon in their hearts, that is, they all think that as long as they open this box and gain the most powerful ability to control souls, they can dominate the world. "
