An Unusual Storage Ring

"The ring on my hand? Is it this Storage Ring?"

Upon hearing her father-in-law mention it, Yang Xiyue looked at the necklace she wore on her right index finger with a bewildered expression.

"That's right!"

Xiao Lin nodded affirmatively.

"Father, is there anything special about the Storage Ring in Yue'er's hand?"

At this moment, Xiao Zhan, who was standing to the side, also came over with a curious expression.

As for Yang Xiyue, she had already taken the Storage Ring off the index finger of her right hand.

The couple then began to examine the Storage Ring.

However, no matter how they looked at it, they still couldn't figure it out.

Then, the two of them turned their questioning gazes to Xiao Lin.

However, Xiao Lin didn't explicitly say so at this time.

After all, no amount of explanation is as effective as letting Yang Xiyue experience it for herself.

"Xiyue, why don't you try cultivating now?"

Xiao Lin suddenly spoke up.

"Father, right here now?"

A look of astonishment flashed across Yang Xiyue's face.

"Right!"

Xiao Lin's answer was also quite concise.

Hearing her father-in-law say this, Yang Xiyue was puzzled, but she still chose to do as he said.

After only a minute or two of shallow cultivation, Xiao Lin called for a halt.

"Take off this Storage Ring again, and then try cultivating."

Xiao Lin spoke again.

When her father-in-law suddenly uttered these inexplicable words, Yang Xiyue first exchanged a glance with her husband, then, without suspecting anything, took off her Storage Ring and resumed her cultivation.

Xiao Lin had only cultivated for a minute or two before waking it up.

"How is it? Can you feel any difference?"

Xiao Lin asked with a mysterious expression.

"The difference?"

At first, Yang Xiyue frowned slightly, but she relaxed her brows after a moment.

"It seems that my cultivation speed has increased slightly since I removed my Storage Ring?"

Yang Xiyue said uncertainly.

Because the difference in cultivation speed was really only a tiny bit, Yang Xiyue wasn't entirely sure.

However, since such a question had arisen in her mind, Yang Xiyue naturally wanted to find out.

In addition, her father-in-law's inexplicable words today made her realize that there might really be something wrong with this Storage Ring!

Therefore, Yang Xiyue then put on and took off the Storage Ring to try cultivating.

Because she had already had doubts in her mind, Yang Xiyue paid special attention to this point this time.

This observation finally confirmed her suspicions!

"Father, after wearing this Storage Ring, my cultivation speed has indeed slowed down a little bit! Although it's less than one percent, it has definitely slowed down!"

Because the slowdown in cultivation was not obvious, I didn't notice it at first.

Dad, it was only when you brought it up today that I realized something was wrong!

This time, Yang Xiyue's tone was absolutely certain!

"What? Wearing this Storage Ring will slow down my cultivation speed? Yue'er, are you alright?"

Before Xiao Lin could even speak, Xiao Zhan was already incredibly nervous.

He wouldn't mind if his cultivation speed simply slowed down a bit; what he's afraid of now is that his wife's health will suffer!

Seeing her husband about to lay a hand on her in front of her father-in-law, Yang Xiyue's face instantly turned red.

"I'm fine, don't move around, Dad's still here!"

She slapped away her husband's hand, which was trying to grope her, Yang Xiyue couldn't help but spit.

"Father, is what Yue'er said true?"

However, even though his wife slapped his hand away, Xiao Zhan was still worried and turned to ask his father for advice.

"Xiyue is fine. Just as she said, wearing this Storage Ring will only slow down her cultivation speed a little, but it won't have any other effects."

Xiao Lin looked at his son, who was a doting husband, with a hint of helplessness.

"Phew, it's good that you're alright."

Only after receiving confirmation from his father did Xiao Zhan finally breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Xiao Lin might be deliberately trying to cause trouble.

Just as Xiao Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, he spoke again.

"Although it only affects cultivation speed now, it's hard to say what will happen in the long run. There's a high chance it will eventually affect Xiyue's body."

"What?"

No sooner had Xiao Lin finished speaking than Xiao Zhan's eyes widened in surprise, and he exclaimed in astonishment.

"Call out"

"Slap"

The next second, Xiao Zhan picked up the Storage Ring that originally belonged to his wife and threw it away.

However, Xiao Lin managed to snatch it back with quick reflexes.

"Father, this Storage Ring is so dangerous, why did you bring it back? Do you mean to give it to your enemy?"

Seeing his father's actions, Xiao Zhan protected his wife while asking in confusion.

However, Xiao Zhan's words left Xiao Lin speechless.

"Bang"

Ouch, that hurts!

Enough is enough! Let's beat him up!

Xiao Lin withdrew his fist and couldn't help but glare at his silly son again.

"You brat, is that the kind of person you think your old man is?"

Xiao Lin asked, somewhat exasperated.

That's hard to say—

Xiao Zhan's mutterings were very low, so low that Yang Xiyue beside him couldn't hear them clearly. But who is Xiao Lin?

With the Soul Power of Three-Star Dou Venerable and Mid-Heavenly Realm, he could hear even the buzzing of a mosquito flying by, let alone the muttering of his own silly son.

Finally, Xiao Lin clenched his fists, enduring the urge to punch his foolish son again after several attempts.

He wasn't very bright to begin with, and if he got punched a couple more times, Xiao Lin was worried he might actually make him stupid.

However, in reality, as father and son, how could Xiao Zhan not understand his own father?

Of course, this simply refers to understanding personality.

And you know what? Xiao Lin really is that kind of person!

If this Storage Ring truly has the effect Xiao Zhan envisions, Xiao Lin might actually do it!

To dump it on your enemy and let them fend for themselves—that feels so good!

Unfortunately, the effect of this Storage Ring was not what Xiao Zhan had expected.

All of this stems from the Remnant Soul of the Old Yao Lao hidden within.

Xiao Lin didn't want to give this Storage Ring to his enemy, only to have Yao Lao cultivate an enemy for the Xiao Household in the future.

"Father, what about this Storage Ring— "

Yang Xiyue ignored her husband's antics and looked at her father-in-law with a serious expression, asking him a question.

After her father-in-law told her that the Storage Ring might affect her health, she was actually quite frightened.

Fortunately, her father-in-law discovered the anomaly in the Storage Ring beforehand.

Otherwise, she really couldn't imagine the consequences.

However, judging from her father-in-law's attitude towards the Storage Ring, Yang Xiyue vaguely guessed that there might be another hidden story behind it!

It must be said that Yang Xiyue is a remarkably intelligent girl!
