Chapter 657 I Inherited a Small Amount of Family Property
Talking about others when you have nothing better to do will bring you bad luck.
Yan Chengxue's gaze was sharp as a knife, surveying her territory like a falcon.
The familiar stone chamber, the familiar stone table, the familiar drunken master dressed in an indigo robe.
The only difference was probably that annoying guy was drawing on the stone table.
After traveling through the desolate region, Xue Lan, who was already skin and bones, lost even more flesh. When Yan Chengxue first came in, she thought that Wu Yijun had come to find him with the newly made puppet.
Yan Chengxue had just gone outside to test the newly made killing array, but she misjudged the killing range when she activated it, and her body was all dirty.
The young man pressed his hand down on Xue Lan's blueprint:
"What are you drawing?"
Xue Lan raised her hand and smacked him:
Get your dirty hands off me!
Yan Chengxue immediately became furious.
The young man cast a cleansing spell on himself: "Are you being polite? This is my table, my chair, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, a storage bag suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of him.
Xue Lan didn't look up, her tone cold and aloof: "Here you go. If you don't like it, tell me, and we can exchange it."
"what?"
Yan Chengxue muttered as she opened the bag, revealing a pile of ancient books on array formations. Each one, taken out individually, could cause chaos among the array formation practitioners of the War Puppet Mansion.
A considerable number of ancient books were stuffed into Xue Lan's storage bag like potatoes, creating a strong visual impact.
Master Yan, a master of formations, swallowed hard and swiftly slipped the storage bag into his sleeve: "You've struck it rich?"
"No, that's all." Xue Lan, who was drawing with her head down, curled the corners of her mouth. "I just inherited a little bit of the family fortune."
Yan Chengxue slapped her forehead.
How could he forget that this person is now the owner of the Wan Gong Fang workshop, with divine weapons, miraculous elixirs, and rare treasures at his fingertips?
The young man gritted his teeth, and then he heard Xue Lan's cheeky voice: "When I have time, I'll make you a set of black iron teeth, but don't break them."
"Fine, I'll bite you first then." Yan Chengxue was already used to Xue Lan's taunts. The young man looked at the blueprint in Xue Lan's hand and found that it actually had a seal on it.
Xue Lan heard Yan Chengxue's arrogant laughter: "You know about Cui Wu now? Are you sharpening your sword at the last minute?"
Xue Lan glared at him, but did not refute him.
Because Yan Chengxue was telling the truth.
Cui Wu, having gained widespread approval, is about to become the city lord of Fuyang City. He will have Xue Lan stamp the token.
Lord Wolf King laughed loudly, then remembered that he did not have the Sect Master's Seal.
The dignified head of the Wan Gong Fang workshop doesn't even have the sect leader's seal!
"Don't talk about her anymore."
A girl's laughing voice came from behind her, and Yan Chengxue turned around to look.
It's Xue Tong.
"why?"
"Because your master already mocked her once." Xue Tong pointed to Kui Shengge behind Xue Lan, who visibly stiffened for a moment.
Long before Yan Chengxue returned, Lei Kui, the demon lord who was bored in the great formation, had already ridiculed Xue Lan in every way.
Xue Tong felt she should tell the truth.
In some ways, Kui Shengge is even more of a chatterbox than Xue Lan.
"He mocks his, I ridicule mine." Yan Chengxue conjured a chair and sat down next to Xue Lan, then looked at Xue Lan with a grin:
"I know you have a strong ability to cope."
Xue Lan glanced at him indifferently: "You really are despicable."
Yan Chengxue cupped his hands in greeting: "Likewise."
"Don't want each other!" Xue Tong slapped Yan Chengxue's hand away: "You're no match for her."
As soon as the girl finished speaking, the three people surrounding Xue Lan burst into laughter.
Xue Lan was speechless.
The woman raised her hand to put away the finished drawing and said calmly, "Does Xiao Wu know about this?"
Kui Shengge replied, "They should know something."
The middle-aged man glanced at Yan Chengxue lightly:
"A self-important fellow accidentally revealed a flaw."
Xue Lan, unaware of Kui Shengge's gaze, casually continued, "Who's so stupid?"
As soon as she finished speaking those four words, Xue Lan felt a bone-chilling coldness coming from beside her.
Lord Wolf quickly changed the subject: "Who is the most powerful array master in the Yuanming Realm... Yan Chengxue, you are not allowed to be the first to speak!"
Timely flattery couldn't escape violence. Yan Chengxue grabbed Xue Lan and spun her around several times before finally asking in confusion:
"How can someone who cultivates immortality still lose weight through starvation?"
The young man fiddled with her slender arms and legs: "You can't let Senior Sister Min see this."
"He's not tall either..." the young man said worriedly. "If all else fails, should I take some pills to grow taller?"
Xue Lan was too lazy to talk to him, like a puppet without any energy.
This time, I consumed too much of my divine soul power in the desolate region, and even with the replenishment from those small fish at the bottom of the East Sea, it was not enough.
Xue Lan knew that her body's time was almost up.
If I don't reach the Northern Region within two months, I won't be able to save this body.
"Alright, alright." Xue Tong felt sorry for Xue Lan when she saw the tall man messing with her, so she quickly stepped forward to rescue the Wolf King.
"I'm not joking."
Yan Chengxue looked at Xue Lan, who was hiding behind Xue Tong, and asked with a rare seriousness, "Are you injured?"
Feeling guilty, Xue Lan hid behind Xue Tong.
Xue Tong also felt guilty, but she had nowhere to retreat.
“She’s not injured!” Little Tong said dryly.
Yan Chengxue looked at her, her eyes seeming to say, "Do you think I'm an idiot?"
"I'm fine..."
Finally, Xue Lan spoke up herself, her greyish-white eyes fixed on Yan Chengxue: "Thank you for your concern."
“I know everyone cares about you…” Yan Chengxue paused for a moment, “At least make yourself look a little better.”
The young man sat down in the chair again, his voice tinged with melancholy: "Xue Lan, these past few years, I've come to understand you less and less."
Kui Shengge quietly left.
Xue Lan sat down next to Yan Chengxue: "What do you want to see through?"
"You're moving too fast."
Yan Chengxue produced a small array plate, which spun continuously in the young man's palm: "To be honest, I wouldn't be worried even if you suddenly became a Nascent Soul cultivator in a single day."
"But you're too light."
Xue Lan is too light.
Her life was unplanned, she was always drifting, and no one knew where she would be next or what she would become.
If you walk fast, it feels like you're floating, and you'll disappear in the blink of an eye.
Too many people have died in the fight against the demons.
Xue Lan recalled the night she had a falling out with the Heavenly Dao, when her inner demon told her, "Your life is too fragile."
She couldn't help but laugh.
My life is too fragile, my soul too fragile, and now even my body is just a thin sheet.
This made Xue Lan lose faith in saving the world!
Lord Wolf decided to skip the topic and, incidentally, prepare his friend mentally.
"Yan Chengxue".
She spoke with a smile:
"How do you know I'll one day become a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Yan Chengxue rolled her eyes at her:
"Daydreaming."
Xue Lan turned her head away:
"Who knows?"
