Chen Lan nodded perfunctorily; he didn’t want to ddle in others’ affairs. This wasn’t his family matter, and he had already done his utmost by eliminating those assassins just now.
Once he arrived at Spirit Country, he would part ways with Liu Qingi.
"Can you help ?" Liu Qingi looked up at Chen Lan with hopeful eyes.
Hearing this, Chen Lan was sowhat speechless. Are people nowadays so shaless?
"No ti." Chen Lan shook his head.
"I can pay any price if you help save my grandfather," Liu Qingi pleaded.
Chen Lan sized Liu Qingi up and down, his gaze making her blush with embarrassnt, but she didn’t back down. Instead, she stood upright, closed her eyes, and displayed her best side.
"Alright, stop. I don’t like kids," Chen Lan said indifferently. In Blue Star, anyone under eighteen was considered illegal; he didn’t like this type and preferred soone a bit more mature. Talking to little sisters could be tiring, while gentle older sisters understood n’s hearts better.
"I’m not a kid. My mom said I’m ready for marriage!" Liu Qingi puffed her cheeks in anger—how could he say she was small? Where was she even small?
Looking down, she reconsidered: she was small, but she still had room to grow. She wouldn’t necessarily remain small forever!
Just as she was about to say sothing, she realized Chen Lan had already walked far away, and without him nearby, she suddenly felt a sense of danger and quickly caught up.
"There’s a treasure in my family that you’ll definitely be interested in. If you save my grandfather, I’ll give it to you. It was sothing my father gave before he left," Liu Qingi continued.
Chen Lan didn’t respond. What could a small family’s treasure possibly be?
"My father said it was given to my ancestor by a benefactor ten thousand years ago. I think it was a senior nad Ye Lan who said soone would co to claim it later. But we’ve waited so long with no one appearing. If you help , I’ll give it to you, even if that senior later cos to kill , I’ll accept it."
With these words, Chen Lan suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around, and stared at Liu Qingi in surprise.
Liu Qingi was unnerved by his strange gaze, thinking she said sothing wrong. Hesitantly, she said, "Senior, pretend I didn’t say anything."
She thought Chen Lan was angry because she was being a bit too persistent.
"I agree," he said.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t... ah? You agreed?" Liu Qingi instinctively apologized, but when she realized, she looked up in shock at Chen Lan.
Agreed?
"Yes, I agreed. I’ll save your grandfather, but you must keep your promise," Chen Lan said calmly.
Helping Liu Qingi was just a small favor, but since she had sothing related to his past, he was curious to see what it was.
Ten thousand years ago, Ye Lan probably wasn’t his past life but his first life!
What did he leave for himself in the first life?
"Great, thank you!" Liu Qingi exclaid excitedly.
She thought her grandfather was beyond saving but unexpectedly t a strong person like Chen Lan.
"By the way, I don’t know your na yet."
"Call Xiao Yao," Chen Lan replied calmly.
Xiao Yao?
The na sounded so nice.
Liu Qingi blushed slightly upon hearing it, lost in thought.
"Boy, stop."
Just then, a voice bood from the sky, startling Liu Qingi, who looked up in alarm.
She saw a massive Immortal Crane covering the sky, circling in the air, slowly shrinking, and then landing before Chen Lan and Liu Qingi, transforming into a young man.
Chen Lan frowned slightly because inside his Storage Ring, the Immortal Suppression Tower shook. That transformation could sense the outside movents, suggesting the Immortal Crane was sent by that mysterious person.
The Immortal Crane stared intently at Chen Lan. It had scoured Mad Forest and found few young people, but this young man before it was the only one it couldn’t see through. He seed like an ordinary person but emanated a dangerous aura!
It suspected he was the one its master was looking for, although the face didn’t match, it couldn’t rule out the possibility of disguise.
Chen Lan’s appearance had been directly altered through the Great Way of Transformation, not just disguised, making it impossible for anyone to discern without the Celestial Eye or other Divine Techniques.
"Step back," Chen Lan ordered Liu Qingi calmly.
Without hesitation, Liu Qingi flew as far back as she could.
"You’ve co to retrieve the transformation, correct?" Chen Lan spoke coldly.
At these words, the Immortal Crane’s pupils contracted. It was now a hundred percent certain this was the person its master was searching for.
"I don’t know how you managed to disguise yourself so I couldn’t see, but since you’ve admitted it, hand over the transformation," the Immortal Crane said coldly.
Chen Lan didn’t waste words with it. In a flash, he appeared in front of the Immortal Crane, sword in hand, striking at its throat!
Seeing this, the Immortal Crane’s pupils shrank violently, it retreated instantly but was still pierced through the abdon, a bloody hole appeared!
Such speed—and this young man must have a cultivation realm similar to its own!
The Immortal Crane was greatly shocked. Soone so young possessing such a cultivation—why hadn’t it heard of such a genius?
However, Chen Lan hadn’t used his full strength. He didn’t want to unleash his Taoist Saint power, which would alert others, and if those Dao Emperors sensed his aura, it would be troubleso.
He was not on Blue Star, but in the Desolate Celestial Realm, where powerhouses were everywhere. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he couldn’t reveal his identity.
This Immortal Crane knew his identity; it had to die!
With this thought, Chen Lan charged forward again at lightning speed.
The Immortal Crane sensed the fierce wind rushing toward its face—the breath of death—and, terrified, transford back into an Immortal Crane, retreating rapidly.
Turning into a gust of wind, the Immortal Crane disappeared without a trace. With the help of the Great Way of Wind, its speed had reached the peak, where hardly anyone could see it!
Seeing this, Chen Lan stopped and murmured, "A perfected Great Way of Wind? Devouring it might enhance my dao, breaking into perfection."
Chen Lan grinned, accelerating to his utmost, quickly closing in on the Immortal Crane.
Seeing Chen Lan effortlessly catching up, the Immortal Crane was shocked beyond belief. Who could see it and still catch up—what kind of monster was this!
"Wind Roll!" the Immortal Crane halted, flapping its wings fiercely toward Chen Lan.
In an instant, a strong wind swept by, dozens of tornadoes rose from the ground, sweeping the forest and uprooting countless trees, scattering them everywhere.
"Retreat!" Chen Lan exclaid, lightly pressing his hand down.
In an instant, the winds ceased, calm and still, as though nothing had happened.
Seeing this, the Immortal Crane panicked completely.
This person was not soone it could handle. Master, please save !
