CHAPTER 2153: CHAPTER 2151: SPACE SEIZED

Jian Zhen had a unique family perception method, so he could sense the powerful presence approaching. He speculated on the person’s identity, could it be the Jiuli Clan leader?

Bai Ruozhu looked up at Feng Cheng who had entered and frowned, saying, "What are you doing here?"

Why would someone enter a woman’s room in the middle of the day unless it was to pity her?

"I wanted to say that the monster has been resealed; three of them died." Feng Cheng’s voice was low and somber, showcasing his bad mood.

Bai Ruozhu was stunned, "How did they die..."

"They burned their lives to seal it," Feng Cheng sighed. "They volunteered from that side, choosing some elderly ones. No one wanted the young to sacrifice themselves here."

Bai Ruozhu gasped, her heart filled with desolation, feeling somewhat moved.

She didn’t seem to dislike those people as much anymore. The fact that they could sacrifice themselves to seal the monster showed they had a sense of responsibility. If no one did anything, the Jiuli people would be the first to suffer. It would take much longer to threaten them, but they did not stand by idly.

Perhaps they hid things from the Jiuli people due to concerns, not out of contempt for ants.

"What about those children?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

"They are all fine. Others have already left. They said they’d like to say goodbye to you in the morning," Feng Cheng hung his head. Actually, the children had wanted to find Bai Ruozhu to say goodbye earlier, but he had persuaded them not to. He was afraid that Bai Ruozhu might be busy or feeling unwell.

Bai Ruozhu quickly realized his intentions and nodded, saying, "Alright, I also want to see them off."

Feng Cheng looked at her again, then decided it wasn’t good to say more, "I’ll leave first. If anything comes up, just call my name towards the Peach Forest."

"Mm, thanks," Bai Ruozhu said in a muffled voice.

Feng Cheng then left, and Bai Ruozhu sat there blankly. Was Jiang Yichun not planning on coming back to explain to her?

She laughed bitterly. If he could explain, he would have done so long ago, and he had already admitted it.

Why had Achun become like this? He was not such a person!

But he hadn’t come home at night and was behaving intimately with Fo Lanying—how could she explain that?

As her head filled with chaos, her room was suddenly shrouded in darkness, and she felt drowsy. Her eyelids slowly closed.

Outside, Jian Zhen, who was chanting a spell, revealed a satisfied smile. No matter how powerful Bai Ruozhu was, she had weaknesses and was negligent in defense.

He dared not delay, fearing that the earlier expert might find something amiss. He hurriedly entered Bai Ruozhu’s room.

He threw a silver light rope at Bai Ruozhu, which directly bound her. But Bai Ruozhu remained oblivious, showing no signs of waking.

Next, Jian Zhen quickly chanted a spell, extracting something bit by bit from Bai Ruozhu.

In her sleep, Bai Ruozhu moaned in pain. She had a dream where her space was being stolen, Achun was leaving, and the space was gone. How could she protect her family and children?

But she found herself powerless to fight back. She vaguely felt she was dreaming, yet found it difficult to wake up.

Eventually, those beams of light entered Jian Zhen’s body bit by bit. He sensed the presence of the space and couldn’t help but laugh.

"The family indeed has a method for hiding the treasure, and it truly works! Haha, no matter how skilled they are, none have my extraordinary luck to encounter someone with a treasure!" He said while laughing, now unafraid of being discovered, as he could completely hide in the Secret Treasure.

Unlike Bai Ruozhu, who called the space a treasure, his family had another set of skills.

Bai Ruozhu woke up startled, seeing Jian Zhen in front of her, memories hurriedly surfaced in her mind. Back in the desert, her good intentions had led to the death of his sister, and the recent dream felt incredibly real.

She felt physically weak and immediately tried to use her thoughts to feel around but couldn’t find a trace of her space!

Moreover, she couldn’t reach Xiaohei and Furball; if they hadn’t been released from the space, she couldn’t communicate with them!

She glared at Jian Zhen, "Was it you?"

Jian Zhen laughed with exceptional joy, "What, do you hate me to death now? If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being foolish, not securing the treasure. Such a good thing naturally belongs to the capable, just stay obedient, and I’ll spare your life."

"So you had your eye on me long ago, and your sister didn’t really die in the desert?" Bai Ruozhu asked through gritted teeth.

"If you hadn’t meddled, I wouldn’t have discovered your secret. At the time, I thought Jiang Yichun had the treasure and followed him for so long, wasting a lot of time. But it was worth it in the end." Jian Zhen laughed again.

"But at the start, you and that woman approached us deliberately, right? At the time, you probably didn’t know I had the space," Bai Ruozhu inquired.

Jian Zhen wore a proud expression, "It’s no harm telling you. Initially, we were ordered to teach you a lesson for killing Sangji. My uncle was still waiting for him to contribute some Barbarian Clan Secret Methods."

Bai Ruozhu’s teeth itched with hatred, but she didn’t know how to regain her space. Yet admitting defeat like this was something she couldn’t do.

"Hmph, even without the space, I can still kill you!" With that, she channeled her Qi and attacked Jian Zhen, knocking him out the window. The two jumped out of the Diaojiao Building and started fighting.

She didn’t want to involve the nearby children in the fight, and as soon as they started fighting, Jianqi and Nanny would be alerted.

As expected, Jianqi and Nanny appeared, and she immediately said, "Go protect the kids and my parents, I’ll deal with him here."

Jian Zhen scoffed, "You have some confidence, but do you think people from the Jian Family are easy to mess with? Would I fear your poison?"

Bai Ruozhu ignored him, her hands never stopping. She didn’t plan to use poison, nor could she. Her poisons were all stored in the space, and with the space gone now, where would she get poison? But even with just martial arts, she could cripple this despicable and shameless Jian Zhen.

In less than ten moves, Jian Zhen was spitting blood, looking at Bai Ruozhu in disbelief, "How did your inner strength become so powerful? And you know so much martial arts, did the Jiuli hide a Secret Treasure?"

Before he could ponder further, Bai Ruozhu raised her dagger and slashed towards his neck with incredible speed. Jian Zhen didn’t dare delay, quickly moving into the space.

Bai Ruozhu missed her target, furious and wanting to kill. But with him gone, how could she pull him out?

Right, Feng Cheng! Feng Cheng was able to enter her space!

She hurriedly shouted towards the Peach Forest, "Feng Cheng, come help me!"

She called three or four times, and Feng Cheng’s figure appeared in front of her, "What is it?"

"My little world was stolen by Jian Zhen, and he’s hiding inside. I can’t find him. Can you go in..."

Before Bai Ruozhu could finish, a slight wave of change occurred beside her, and Feng Cheng quickly reached out to protect her.
