The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife-Chapter 557: Pull out the radish and bring out the mud

Chapter 557: 557: Pull out the radish and bring out the mud

Dongfang Qing was furious.

However, he didn’t notice that Zhuge Yun quietly gave Ami a glance and a nod.

"Husband, Ami has something to report to you that I shouldn’t be involved in, so I won’t listen in. If there’s anything, you can find me later."

"Ah, you’re leaving?" Hearing it was something she shouldn’t be involved in, Dongfang Qing nodded, "Alright then, I’ll find you in the backyard after I’m done."

After Zhuge Yun left, Dongfang Qing quickly asked Ami what the matter was.

Ami gestured: [Lady Dongfang had a child with a mortal, the child died, and Lady Dongfang set up a Demon Evil Array to seek revenge.]

"What?! She had a child with an ordinary person?! Is she insane? Why didn’t I know about such a big thing? Why didn’t anyone tell me? What happened to the child? How did it die?"

[Dongfang’s husband robbed others’ Qi Fortune for his son, but it was suppressed back, and the son perished.]

"Robbed others’ Qi Fortune, wait, didn’t she use our family’s secret Qi Fortune Stealing Technique? Isn’t it passed to men, not women? How did she know?"

Just after saying it, Dongfang Qing realized. Back then, his father’s lover’s admirer is now the Elder in charge of the secret techniques.

So, the one who set up the "Luck Robbery Array Formation" for Lady Dongfang, or rather taught her the "Luck Robbery Array Formation," was none other than the Ninth Elder?

After asking all the necessary questions, Dongfang Qing dismissed Ami and led people directly to the Ninth Elder’s room.

"Bang—"

He kicked open the door.

Inside the room, the Ninth Elder, with hair white as snow, dressed in white, sat like an immortal on a round mat, meditating.

Dongfang Qing’s arrival only caused him to slightly lift his eyes: "Clan Leader, what are you..."

"Ninth Elder, I already have solid evidence that it was you who revealed the Luck Robbery Array Formation to Lady Dongfang."

"That’s right! I was the one who revealed it." He said calmly, with unwavering composure.

"Ninth Elder, do you know how important that thing is to our family? You casually revealed it? And to that woman Dongfang..." Dongfang Qing was somewhat biting his teeth, "Do you know what she used it for?"

"What did she do? Just create some conditions for her child."

"Is that called creating some conditions? She went to rob someone else’s Qi Fortune, that was even the child of fortune."

Back then, the array was set up personally by the Ninth Elder, naturally aware that the child being robbed was the "child of fortune."

But so what?

"Heaven and earth treat everything as straw dogs, it’s originally the survival of the fittest, the strong make the rules."

"But the problem is, this child of fortune is now the partner of the old ancestor of the Hidden Immortal Sect, and they’ve even teamed up to break the Demon Evil Array, becoming heroes of the entire Cultivation World."

The Ninth Elder was startled, slightly frowning: "He wasn’t supposed to die? The array I set up back then was a death array; the one being robbed should have died without a doubt."

"But the problem is, he didn’t die; instead, he took the fortune back. That’s why Dongfang’s son died from the backlash of Qi Fortune."

"Her son is dead?" The Ninth Elder was surprised.

"Don’t tell me you didn’t know about this at all."

The Ninth Elder was somewhat helpless: "I usually don’t inquire about outside news; she always contacts me... Her son is dead, she must be very sad, right? I have to go and comfort her."

"You don’t need to go; she’s already dead."

"What?! She’s dead too?! How could she be, she clearly..."

"She clearly had two different Hidden Guards, and one of them was trained by you, right?"

The Ninth Elder didn’t deny it: "Yes."

Dongfang Qing was both angry and anxious: "Ninth Elder, I really don’t know what to say, aren’t you too old to be making such fundamental errors? You are an elder of the Dongfang Family; your actions should first consider the Dongfang Family."

"I know, I’m sorry, I didn’t think it through; it’s my fault. I’m willing to bear all the consequences..."

"Do you think these consequences are something you can bear? Do you know what else she did afterward? She contacted the Lei Family and Yun Sect to create a Demon Evil Array. I don’t know the specifics, but someone has investigated and identified it as the work of our Dongfang Family. Just watch, soon someone will come to confront us, and we don’t even know if our Dongfang Family can escape this disaster."

The Ninth Elder had just come out of seclusion, completely unaware that so much had happened in just a few days.

The death of Lady Dongfang was one thing, but how did a Demon Evil Array also appear?

If this caused trouble for the Dongfang Family, the Ninth Elder would be an eternal sinner of the Dongfang Family.

God knows he only helped Lady Dongfang because of her mother and her motherly love.

But he never expected her to trap him like this.

Before long, Jiang Nuo, accompanied by Mu Qiuniang and her three disciples, as well as some members of the Hidden Immortal Sect, came to the door.

The "Luck Robbery Array Formation" was a secret technique not passed on by the Dongfang Family, unknown to most people in the Cultivation World.

But there’s no wall in the world without a crack; since the Dongfang Family dared to secretly keep such an array, they had to be ready for it to be discovered sooner or later by others.

But now, it was the time it was discovered.

"I wonder if the Dongfang Clan Leader finds these things familiar?" Jiang Nuo, relying on his good memory, sketched out the outline of the Luck Robbery Array Formation.

At a glance, Dongfang Qing recognized it and was secretly shocked: how does he have these things? They looked very complete; only minor details needed tweaking to be directly used.

"This..." But outwardly, Dongfang Qing kept a facade of not recognizing it, "Seems like I’ve seen it somewhere, but our family should not have this, right? As you know, our Dongfang Family lives off herbs; very few understand arrays. Did you perhaps mistake the place?"

"Hundreds of years ago, the Dongfang Family indeed thrived on herbs, but that was centuries ago. Times change, and so do things, especially for families, don’t they?" Jiang Nuo didn’t beat around the bush much with Dongfang Qing, "I know you don’t want to admit it, but it doesn’t matter, as I have already captured those black-clad men."

Dongfang Qing was alarmed.

Could it be the Dongfang Family’s Hidden Guards? But if family Hidden Guards went out on missions, they would usually remove any identifying marks to avoid failure leading others back to them—a convention among major families.

So Jiang Nuo was just testing him?
