Chapter 515 Junior Brother Yan's Lofty Righteousness
Chapter 515 Junior Brother Yan's Lofty Righteousness
"Of course I know!"
The Qingyun Sect Leader raised his hand and stroked his beard:
"The array formation genius of the War Puppet Mansion is said to have been taken as a disciple by Senior Lei Kui of Luoxia Mountain a few days ago, to learn ancient array formations. His future is limitless!"
"That's perfect!" Xue Lan smiled, her eyes crinkling, like a mischievous little animal.
Since you know about Yan Chengxue and have a high opinion of her.
Then I'm going to start making things up.
Xue Lan flicked her wide robe sleeves, straightened her back, and her gray-white eyes opened and closed, revealing a few tears.
"I originally did not intend to tell you seniors about this matter, as entrusted by Junior Brother Yan."
"But now, it seems that the time has come when we have no choice but to speak out."
The woman's voice carried four parts helplessness, five parts guilt, and a touch of sadness:
"Seniors, you may not know this, but Junior Brother Yan has been studying ancient formations under Senior Lei Kui, working tirelessly day and night, all for your sake!"
"What do you mean by 'for us'?" the Qingyun Sect Leader asked, puzzled.
"What are you going to do with Yan Chengxue again?" Dao Xuanzi's brows furrowed into a large "川" shape.
Xue Lan's mind went blank for a moment.
Lord Wolf King spoke angrily in his sea of consciousness:
"What do you mean I need to do with Yan Chengxue again?"
"Master is biased!"
Standing at the back of the crowd, the inner demon crossed his arms and looked at Xue Lan, then rolled his eyes.
Clearly, they no longer intended to clash with Xue Lan's shamelessness.
Although Xue Lan secretly accused Xuanzi of being biased in her heart, she dared not show it on her face at all.
She's not stupid; she already angered Dao Xuanzi when she revealed her inner demons earlier.
Although Dao Xuanzi had developed exceptional mental fortitude through Xue Lan's repeated provocations.
but……
Xue Lan probed out with her divine sense like a thief and indeed saw Kong Mingzi fiddling with the small porcelain bottle at his waist behind Dao Xuanzi.
"Cough cough!"
Xue Lan, trying to cover up his mistake, coughed twice with extreme guilt before continuing to deceive the powerful figures before him.
"As you all probably know, the concentration of spiritual energy in the upper and lower realms of Yuanming Realm is different. In the upper realm, the human and demon races can make rapid progress in their cultivation, while in the lower realm, people can toil for thousands of years without making any progress."
The woman's voice gradually became more impassioned:
"Junior Brother Yan said that the great beings among the human and demon races in the lower realm may not be less talented than the geniuses of the upper realm, but they have wasted thousands of years and can only remain at the late Nascent Soul stage, unable to break through and ascend, and finally their lifespans are exhausted and they perish..."
"Even worse!"
"Out of fear of running out of lifespan, they colluded with the demons!"
“Junior Brother Yan saw it all and felt the pain in his heart. Therefore, when he learned about Wei He’s plan from Xue Lan, Junior Brother Yan, with a strong sense of righteousness, immediately raised a matter.”
The woman, dressed in a solemn black robe, stood before a group of powerful figures, looking like a storyteller in a teahouse.
"whats the matter?"
Tu Shan Yan, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke, her alluring eyes fixed intently on Xue Lan.
Among the human and demon cultivators present, no one understood the fear of approaching the end of one's lifespan better than her.
Xue Lan glanced at Tu Shanyan with her gray eyes, then gave her a sweet smile.
She spoke slowly and deliberately:
"Junior Brother Yan said that as long as I, Xue, can break through the barrier between the upper and lower realms, he will request Senior Lei Kui to set up an ancient spirit-gathering array in Mingyangchuan to draw on the vast spiritual energy of the upper realm and help all the seniors break through their shackles and reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao!"
Tu Shanyan knew she shouldn't easily trust Xue Lan.
A junior human, burdened by inner demons and possessing the strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator, claimed to have a way to break down the barrier between the upper and lower realms and even offered to help these old folks break through their cultivation levels.
It sounds bizarre and unbelievable no matter how you look at it.
But deep down...
Tu Shanyan glanced at Xue Lan.
But deep down, she hoped that Xue Lan's words were true.
Yuangou Mountain welcomed another batch of little foxes this autumn, each one round and chubby.
They surrounded her, calling her "Grandmother," and her soft fox ears brushed against their palms, always feeling soft and warm.
It reminded her of many years ago when she was also a little fox constantly struggling under her aunt's thumb.
She didn't want to die when her lifespan was exhausted, at least not before the Yuanming Realm had settled down.
Thinking of this, Tu Shanyan turned her head slightly and looked around. Sure enough, she saw several familiar faces.
Tu Shanyan looked at Xue Lan, her voice a little hoarse:
"Is this true?"
Xue Lan opened her pale, gray eyes wide and took out a jade pendant from her sleeve:
"This is a keepsake from Senior Lei Kui."
The jade pendant in Xue Lan's hand was the one Kui Shengge had given her after the last hunt for Lin Shuang.
The inner demon's eyes twitched slightly: "This incident teaches us never to easily give tokens to others."
You never know what someone will say when they give you a token!
The powerful beings around looked at the jade pendant in Xue Lan's hand and began to probe it with their divine senses.
After a moment, the elderly people looked at each other.
He wants to say something but stops, and yet he wants to say something again.
They looked at each other, glancing at Xue Lan every now and then.
Although there was still an undisguised suspicion in their eyes when they looked at Xue Lan, at least no one openly said that she was talking nonsense.
That's good.
After all, Xue Lan's initial goal was not to have people from the lower realm sacrifice themselves to help him break through the boundary.
What Lord Wolf King wanted was simply to make them believe in the boundary-breaking process and to prepare for the formal connection between the upper and lower realms.
After all, she, a single wolf, couldn't withstand the massive counterattack from the demons.
"I am back!"
A girl's clear voice reached her ears, and Xue Lan lowered her eyelashes slightly, her voice flat and cold:
"What did Ember say?"
In the bamboo grove courtyard of Jiyuan Peak, Xue Tong placed all the things he had brought from Beiyuchuan on the stone table.
"Within fifty years, she will personally guard the passage between the upper and lower realms, so don't worry."
Xue Lan had already anticipated Jin Guang's actions, and Lord Wolf sighed softly:
"I trust her to get things done."
Upon hearing this, Xue Tong spoke without any hesitation:
"Of course you trust her. If you didn't trust her, you wouldn't have risked your life to leave the wolf family to her."
"You're too trusting!"
Xue Lan raised her hand and rubbed her temples:
"Your attack power... is frighteningly high!"
Xue Tong clapped his hands, sat down on the stone bench, and said listlessly:
"How's it going on your end? It's already past midnight."
Xue Lan smiled and said:
"It's not easy to manage a room full of senior figures, but with my persistent efforts, it's almost done."
Xue Tong really wanted to ask how this persistent operation actually worked.
However, out of consideration for the Wolf King's dry lips, she ultimately refrained from speaking.
Her understanding of Xue Lan didn't mean Xue Lan would understand her. The awkward silence between them lasted less than three breaths before Xue Lan's cheeky voice appeared in Xue Tong's ear:
"Could you do me one more favor?"
