n408 Proficient

nDong Xi sensed the spirit roots, but she still could not tell what was different. It was just that she seemed to be more proficient in cultivating.

nDong Xi knew that his spirit root value was slowly increasing. However, this time, it seemed to be different from the previous times.

nDong Xi did not understand and asked Su Cheng, but this time, Su Cheng did not answer for a long time.

nIn the end, Dong Xi sighed helplessly. Forget it, at least she had benefited from this.

nAt this moment, Dong Xi was like an abyss, absorbing all the spiritual energy in the Spirit-Gathering Array.

nThe spiritual energy in Dong Xi’s body turned purple bit by bit, and finally merged into the spiritual liquid obediently.

nDong Xi’s communication jade slip suddenly lit up, and he opened his eyes.

nDong Xi did not dare to enter a meditative state in the Shangguan Residence. Otherwise, how could she have woken up so quickly?

nDong Xi took out a jade slip and saw that it was a message from Senior Brother Tie Zhu.

nJunior Sister, I lost contact with Junior Brother Rui Ming!

nDong Xi was shocked and immediately sent a message.

nWhat did Senior Brother Rui Ming say before he left?

nTie Zhu quickly replied. He said he was going to look for something, but he didn’t elaborate. He won’t reply to my message now.

nDong Xi immediately found Senior Brother Rui Ming on the list and sent a message.

nSenior Brother, where are you?

nHowever, she still did not receive a reply from Rui Ming. Dong Xi immediately became anxious.

nDong Xi stood up and casually waved her hand, retrieving the spirit stones from the Spirit-Gathering Array and putting Songsong back into the Demon Beast Bag.

nThen, he hurriedly ran out of the mansion.

nThe guards of the Shangguan Residence stopped Dong Xi. Dong Xi frowned and coldly said, “What are you doing?”

nThe guard did not dare to offend Dong Xi, but he could not let Dong Xi go out. The guard said, “Young Master, it was Lady Little Ya who said that you and Young Miss cannot go out.”

n“Go and call Little Ya over,” Dong Xi said with a cold snort.

nThe guard nodded and immediately went to find Little Ya.

nDong Xi stood at the door. No matter how the guards tried to persuade her, Dong Xi refused to leave. She waited for Little Ya to walk over.

nLittle Ya did not let Dong Xi wait for too long and soon arrived at the door.

nLittle Ya was about to explain when Dong Xi said directly, “It’s good that you’re here. My brother is missing. Hurry up and send someone to look for him.”

nLittle Ya was stunned.

nHe was really not polite at all.

nSeeing that Little Ya did not speak, Dong Xi shouted angrily, “What’s wrong? I can’t order you around? My brother Ming Zhi has gone missing. Hurry up and find him. If you can’t find him within three days, I’ll hold you accountable.”

nAfter Dong Xi finished speaking, she turned around and left with an angry expression.

nLittle Ya looked at Dong Xi’s back as she left. A cold light flashed in her eyes. Little Ya said, “You really don’t think of yourself as an outsider anymore.”

n“Miss, should we go and look for it?” The guard immediately asked.

nLittle Ya’s face was cold as she said meaningfully, “I’m looking for the Young Mater’s elder brother. He’s an honored guest of our Shangguan Residence.”

n…

nThe news of Dong Xi and Little Ya’s conflict was soon passed to Shangguan Yun’er. As soon as Dong Xi entered the room, Shangguan Yun’er sized her up. Shangguan Yun’er said, “Husband, are you alright?”

nDong Xi placed her hands behind her back. When she saw Shangguan Yun’er, Dong Xi smiled.

n“Don’t worry, Madam. I’m fine,” Dong Xi said.

nSeeing that Dong Xi was fine, Shangguan Yun’er’s furrowed brows also relaxed. Shangguan Yun’er said, “It’s fine as long as you’re fine. I’m afraid that Little Ya will target you.”

nWhen Dong Xi heard this, she smiled and said, “I’m the master, and Little Ya is the servant. How can a servant target the master? Madam, you don’t have to worry.”

nDong Xi noticed that Shangguan Yun’er’s expression was not right. Dong Xi continued, “Even if she’s against me, it doesn’t matter. I still have Madam to help me.”

nShangguan Yun’er’s expression changed. She said, “Husband, do you want to go out?”

nDong Xi nodded and frowned. She said helplessly, “My brother is missing, so I’m a little anxious.”

nWhen Shangguan Yun’er heard this, the image of that silly youth suddenly appeared in her mind. Her heart also began to feel uneasy. Shangguan Yun’er said, “Who is it?”

nDong Xi said, “It’s Brother Ming Zhi. He went missing right after we left yesterday. Senior Brother Tie Nan searched for him for a whole night, but he still couldn’t find him. He had no choice but to contact me. We just arrived at the Void Sea, and Brother Ming Zhi’s cultivation isn’t high either. I’m afraid that he might encounter some danger outside.”

nShangguan Yun’er also became anxious when she heard this. Shangguan Yun’er said, “Let’s go. Let’s look for him together. Father is in seclusion. I don’t believe that Little Ya will dare to stop me.”

nSeeing Shangguan Yun’er like this, Dong Xi immediately stopped Shangguan Yun’er. Dong Xi said, “Madamm, Little Ya has already agreed to send someone to look for her. Let’s not be anxious. There are many people in the residence that can help search for him. I think we will be able to find him very soon.”
