Chapter 1216 Kneel Down

Mengyu rejected her father’s suggestion.

"Dad, you’ve already become a Nascent Soul True Monarch, the Family Head doesn’t dare to do anything to you. But if I enter the Immortal Sect, I will become your vulnerability, easily captured by them to control you. If they discover that I’m an Alchemist, I fear I’ll be locked up to make pills all day long.

I still want to explore freely and enjoy life for several decades. However, Dad, could you show me the Array Opening Talisman?"

Nan Xiao was once again astonished: "You can make talismans?"

When Mengyu was handling Huilan, her "stepmother’s" affair, she once killed an alien, who left behind a book on talismanic techniques. She studied it in her free time and understood the principles of talisman making. Now she is capable of creating talismans on her own.

Having heard from her father that going in and out of the Immortal Sect requires an Array Opening Talisman, she thought of trying to make some herself.

Nan Xiao took out the Array Opening Talisman and passed it to Mengyu, who used her refined Divine Sense to investigate it and realized that the talisman was a condensed array. She had studied array knowledge in Taoyuan Space as well.

She then took out a piece of Spirit Jade, attempting to make the talisman according to the Array Opening Talisman. After failing with two pieces of Spirit Jade, she finally succeeded in making one.

This greatly amazed Nan Xiao: his daughter is truly a genius.

"Dad, now that I have learned to make the Array Opening Talisman, I can enter the Immortal Sect whenever I want. So, I won’t be going with you now."

Nan Xiao couldn’t help but ask Mengyu again: "Is your master also a Talisman Master?"

"No, I studied talismanic techniques from a book on my own." Actually, she learned Immortal Cultivation on her own as well, with guidance from Xiao Tao.

Very straightforwardly, Mengyu took out the talismanic technique book for her father to see: "If you want to learn, you can make talismans too." She had already made a copy of it.

Nan Xiao was instantly tempted; if he could make Array Opening Talismans himself, he wouldn’t need to go to the alliance every time he needed one.

Mengyu added, "It’s best to use Spirit Jade for talisman making."

Nan Xiao smiled wryly, "Where in the world could we find so much Spirit Jade?"

Unexpectedly, Mengyu took out a large piece of Spirit Jade: "You can cut it yourself."

Nan Xiao was somewhat dumbfounded: the strip of stone resembles the steps of a First-Level.

He didn’t know that it wasn’t just like steps, but actually a First-Level step that Mengyu excavated from the ruins of an abandoned palace in Heavenly Pond.

All the steps, pillars, and door columns were made of Spirit Jade, and Mengyu excavated them all. Her ring still contained a large heap of these Spirit Jade stairs. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Nan Xiao accepted the Spirit Jade stairs: "Alright, I’ll learn it when I return."

Ultimately, his daughter refused to go with him to the Immortal Sect, leaving Nan Xiao to sigh as he departed alone.

The Nan Family’s Great Elder and Second Elder were just preparing to set off to capture Nan Xiao, but since they needed to go to the Master Cultivation Alliance for a new Array Opening Talisman, which had incidentally run out, a day’s delay occurred.

Unexpectedly, before they could set off, Nan Xiao suddenly returned home.

Upon seeing this, the Great Elder immediately stepped forward to capture him: "Wretched child, kneel down!"

They evidently planned to seize him before inquiring further.

The Great Elder and the Nan Family had long reached a tacit understanding. When the Nan Family Head mentioned the situation and talked about sending someone to rescue his son, the Great Elder knew his intention.

Accordingly, he followed the Family Head’s suggestion and offered "his own" proposal for him and the Second Elder to capture Nan Xiao and bring him back.

As expected, as soon as he took on this task, Nan Yun’ao approached him. The two easily reached an agreement: once they went out, they would directly capture Nan Xiao and disable him, exchanging him for Nan Gong.
