My Wife Is a Transmigrated Master Cultivator



Lu Zijia sighed in her mind. Sure enough, her uncle was still so persistent.

However, she could understand. After all, the family clan was an inheritance. No patriarch of any generation would want it to be destroyed when it was passed down to them.

"Let's not talk about this for now."

Lu Zijia changed the topic and said, "I heard from the guards that some people from the Imperial City came to look for me?"

Knowing that Lu Zijia didn't want to talk about it, Liang Zongxing also changed the topic sensibly. "That's right, it's the Weapon Refinement Guild, the Mercenary Guild, and the royal family. The eldest prince and the fourth prince will also arrive at Zhuang Prefectural City in a few days."

After a pause, Liang Zongxing continued, "To be honest, the Fourth Prince is my nephew. It's just that my nephew's condition isn't good right now and he's on the opposing side of the eldest prince, so the eldest prince's arrival might be deliberately targeting the Liang family."

Apart from making preparations for Lu Zijia and the others, what Liang Zongxing meant by saying this was to also hint to the two of them that if they didn't want to be involved in this mess, they could draw a clear line with the Liang family before the eldest prince arrived.

Lu Zijia certainly heard what he meant, but she pretended not to understand and said, "It's fine. We'll just deal with it accordingly."

Except…

"I heard that the Fourth Prince of Delin Country is a genius with a single spirit root and is deeply loved by the king. It's not an exaggeration to say that he's second only to one person and above tens of thousands of people. Why is Fellow Taoist Liang…"

Lu Zijia didn't continue what she said after that, but it was enough for Liang Zongxing to understand her confusion.

Liang Zongxing shook his head with a bitter smile. "Isn't this all given by the emperor? Once it's taken back, it'll be nothing."

Back then, his clueless sister could marry into the palace and become Consort Xian, whose position was only below the Queen, because the Liang family had a genius alchemist niece.

Later on, his niece failed her Tribulation Transcendence, so the Liang family was defeated and fell behind. His clueless sister and nephew, who were in the palace, were also suppressed by many forces.

As a result, his clueless sister was sent to the cold palace in less than a year, and his nephew was even imprisoned in his mansion and couldn't take a step out.

However, even though his clueless sister was in a difficult situation, she still thought of all kinds of ways to help her half-dead brother when the Liang family fell in the beginning.

For the next two to three years, his clueless sister couldn't even protect herself. She only sent him a letter, asking him not to go to the Imperial City, and they never contacted each other again.

Hearing that, Lu Zijia understood that her cousin, the fourth prince, had fallen out of favor with the monarch.

Indeed, instead of relying on others, it was better to rely on oneself. Only when one was strong enough could there be a guarantee that one wouldn't be pulled down from the altar.

Then, Liang Zongxing persuaded Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan a few more times. Seeing that the two of them were determined not to cut ties with the Liang family, Liang Zongxing was both grateful and ashamed.

"Fellow Taoist Liang, the guests you met just now, they are from the Imperial City, am I right?" Lu Zijia changed the topic and said, "Are they here for the inscribed spiritual weapons?"

"That's right."

Liang Zongxing restrained the gratitude in his heart and said seriously, "The beast tide is coming aggressively this time. The Minister of War, Lord Li, is in charge of guarding Zhuang Prefectural City. However, the beast tide was fierce and the situation wasn't optimistic. That was why Lord Li repeatedly asked to see Fellow Taoist Lu and wanted to buy a batch of inscription spiritual artifacts from him, mainly for attack and defense. As for the Mercenary Association and the Weapon Refinement Guild, they also have the same goal."

Lu Zijia nodded slightly. "Sure, but I don't have much materials with me. Please ask them if they're willing to provide the materials themselves."
