Tang Xiao was amazed as soon as they arrived at the treasury vault, especially since the room was filled with treasures, which were neatly grouped based on their type and size.
Not only weapons, but there are also lots of armor, shields, and so on inside. Moreover, they have also been divided between modern and cultivator equipment, so they can search and choose whatever equipment they want more easily.
"Master, you and Mistress can choose what you both want, but for the time being, both of you don't choose equipment in the cultivator's section, mainly because your cultivation is still insufficient, or you will die from qi depletion." Xiao Ai explained it as she led them inside. "Oh, there's one thing that you can choose from in the cultivator's section, the storage ring."
Tang Xiao's eyes lit up when Xiao Ai mentioned the storage ring, especially since it would be very useful for them to carry and store their belongings.
Arriving at the storage ring collection place, Tang Xiao and Tang Yin's eyes fell on a pair of light blue rings, and their hearts unknowingly beat at the same rhythm. So they took the pair of rings according to the size of their ring fingers, and both of them rubbed them with a strange feeling.
Xiao Ai smiled as soon as they chose the ring, and she explained it to them. "The names of the rings are ocean hearts, both made by a dwarf and a fairy. According to legend, only lovers who have an extraordinary bond can wear them, which means they are a couple destined for each other, but no one has been able to wear them."
Tang Xiao and Tang Yin exchanged glances before nodding to each other, and they put the rings on each other's fingers, and they were attached to their fingers without a hitch.
*Badump... Badump...*
"Eh!?" Tang Xiao and Tang Yin looked at each other in shock, and they stretched out their hands to touch each other's heart area.
*Badump... Badump...*
Suddenly, the two rings shone brightly, dazzling them, and the sound of their heartbeats grew louder; even their hearts continued to beat in sync.
"I can feel your heartbeat in mine, Xiao'er." Tang Yin said it with admiration, as her other hand held Tang Xiao's hand in the area of her heart.
Tang Xiao also held Tang Yin's hand, which was still pressed against his chest. "Me too; I can feel your heartbeat on mine too, Big Sis."
'I knew it!' Xiao Ai inwardly exclaimed in joy after seeing the two rings react to them, especially since the two rings never found their owner for thousands of years. But now, both rings actually recognize Tang Xiao and Tang Yin, which means that they have an extraordinary bond, and they are also a destined couple for each other. 'Is this what you expect when you save her, old master? No wonder you never wanted to get married; it turned out that your destined partner was your big sister, but she died back then. With this, the future has changed because she is still alive, and they have become husband and wife now.'
Soon, the bright light dimmed, and they smiled happily, feeling each other's heartbeat. Tang Xiao directly pulled Tang Yin into his arms, and they kissed each other affectionately as their hearts continued to beat in sync.
"Hehe." Tang Yin giggled and hugged Tang Xiao tighter. "I love you so much, Xiao'er."
"I love you too, big sis."
Tang Xiao then carried Tang Yin to look for suitable weapons for them. "What are your plans next?"
"Hmm?" Tang Xiao thought for a moment. "While you were learning everything earlier, I checked some things about the Ouyang family. Since I have the transformation technique, I plan to apply to be their chauffeur, so I can destroy them from within."
"Do you intend to kidnap them?"
"Yes." Tang Xiao nodded and explained some of the plans he had previously devised, but his explanation left Tang Yin dumbfounded.
"Haha!" Suddenly, Tang Yin laughed out loud and hit his chest lightly. "You are evil, you know? However, I will fully support you, and you can infiltrate the Ouyang family as soon as possible. As for Yu Xiaoling, you don't need to go to Hong Kong to meet her, but me and Xiao Ai will go there to take care of the fox."
"Oh?" Tang Xiao suspiciously asked her. "What do you want to do to Yu Xiaoling?"
"Haha." However, Tang Yin shook her head and stuck out her tongue. "Just leave her to me, and you'll know later."
"All right, you can take care of Yu Xiaoling, and I will infiltrate the Ouyang family."
"You haven't investigated the Ouyang family too deeply, right?" Tang Xiao responded with a nod, and Tang Yin immediately warned him. "When I learned all that, I also dug deeper into information about them. They are more terrifying than we imagined, and there are many people who support them from behind, so you have to be very careful."
"There are many other people supporting the Ouyang family from behind, huh?" Tang Xiao was surprised to hear that.
Tang Yin nodded slightly and explained it to him again. "I discovered many secrets about the Ouyang family, but they are just subordinates to other families, and the families above them are powerful. So I'm sure that they will not stand still if something happens to them, and we must divide their attention so that we can carry out our revenge more smoothly."
Tang Xiao sighed inwardly, as he had not thought that far, and he only wanted to take revenge on the Ouyang family. However, the situation was more complicated than he expected, and he had to be more careful if the families behind them were indeed powerful.
"All right, you don't need to be this serious." Tang Yin said it with a smile. "You can work on our revenge outside, and I will support you from within this ark. Besides, I have also thought of a plan, but Xiao Ai and I still have to prepare a few things before starting it."
"What is your plan?"
"I want to set up a company, but I need capital and some people who can help me. However, you don't need to worry; I can take care of everything, and I will also ask Aunt Qing for help." Tang Yin then explained about the business she wanted to set up and her other plans, which made Tang Xiao truly amazed by her thoroughness, especially since she had previously been in a coma for seven years.
Tang Xiao immediately agreed to her plans. "You don't need to think about capital, and you can ask Xiao Ai to steal from Ran Linfeng's account, especially since three-quarters of their assets belong to our parents, so you don't need to hold back against them."
"En, I'll take care of that, and our first target is the Ran family." Tang Yin suddenly remembered something. "What are your plans for Aunt Yixuan?"
Tang Xiao's face darkened after he heard the name, and his eyes became cold. "Even though Zhao Yixuan is our mother's little sister, she betrayed her, so I will never forgive her. Besides, I will also not spare those two bitches, and I will make them experience the same things our mothers went through that night."
"I agree with you; I will never forgive Aunt Yixuan either." Tang Xiao felt relieved that Tang Yin had the same thoughts about their aunt. "However, it would be preferable if we attacked them individually rather than all at once, or else they would be alert to our actions."
"Yes, I've thought about that too." Tang Xiao then told her. "Before I go to the Ouyang family, I will go to prison first."
"Why do you want to go to prison?"
"That fatty Du Zhong is Ouyang Hong's henchman, and he let his subordinates infiltrate the prison to kill me, so I have to make calculations with him."
"I see." Tang Yin nodded in understanding. "Xiao'er, we've been here for too long, and I'm afraid that Aunt Yuan will come to the hospital to visit me."
"You're right, so-" However, Tang Xiao suddenly heard someone calling out to him.
{Help!}
"Who?"
Tang Xiao's sudden shout startled them. "What's the matter, Xiao'er? Why did you suddenly shout?"
Tang Xiao looked around the room for the source of the voice as he informed them. "I heard a woman calling me in my mind, but I couldn't understand her words, as I had never heard her language before."
"A woman?" Tang Yin and Xiao Ai asked at the same time.
However, Xiao Ai felt confused by that, especially since she had lived inside the ark for so long and had complete control over it, but she had never encountered any strange occurrences.
{Help me!}
"Master-"
Tang Xiao waved his hand to stop Xiao Ai. "The woman called me again, but I can understand her words now, and she asked me for help."
{Help me!}
"Where are you?" Tang Xiao shouted as he circled around the area, but he still couldn't find the woman. "Do you know anything about this, Xiao Ai?"
"I don't know, Master. It's also my first time experiencing such a strange occurrence, and Old Master has never experienced it before either." Xiao Ai felt increasingly strange about that, especially since the old and young Tang Xiao were basically the same person, but their experiences were different. 'Could this be due to changes that occurred in the past?'
Suddenly, a red light flashed from a piece of equipment, and Tang Xiao turned his head towards the light. Instantly, his eyes were fixed on a necklace with a red stone hanging on the wall some distance away from them, and it continuously gave off a red glow. "What is that necklace, Xiao Ai?"
