Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Chapter 2240

The old man was referring to Li Lan's defeat of Mingzi and Wang Xuan a month ago.

This incident caused quite a stir in the Middle-earth at the time, with everyone speculating about Li Lan's true identity.

Only the old man knew that perhaps only this young man in front of him could have done that.

The controversy surrounding Li Lan only subsided after the appearance of that mysterious powerful figure, and she no longer attracted so much attention.

Li Lan said with a smile:

"I just casually dealt with two ants, I never expected so many people to know about it, I am truly ashamed."

Upon hearing this, the old man was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter and said:

"Good lad, your temper is as arrogant as ever."

"But now that you've come to this Central Continent, you'd better rein in that temper."

"After all, there are many powerful people here, and many are waiting for you to appear."

Upon hearing this, Li Lan immediately became interested. He looked at the old man and said:

"Oh, who are they looking for me?"

Li Lan knew that the mysterious expert ranked eleventh must be looking for him.

Besides him, Li Lan didn't know who else was looking for him.

Hearing Li Lan's question, the old man smiled and said:

"The eleventh-ranked young supreme being is named Chi Yu, and he has been looking for you recently."

“That person comes from a mysterious sect deep in the void. His strength is not to be underestimated. Even the nine people ranked ahead of you avoid him and dare not confront him directly.”

Upon hearing this, Li Lan was slightly surprised.

This person indeed came from a sect in the void, but Li Lan did not expect that this person's strength was so great that even the top ten young supreme beings did not dare to be his enemy.

However, Li Lan had no intention of fighting him.

If the other party doesn't cause him trouble, he naturally won't take action.

After all, the ancient ruins were about to open, and he didn't want to invite trouble.

"It's alright. If we meet in the ruins, I will naturally have a chance to fight him."

"Who are the other people the old man is referring to?"

Seeing that Li Lan showed no fear of Chi Yu, a satisfied smile immediately appeared on the old man's face.

"Good lad, I knew you were confident in your abilities."

“There are quite a few people who want to challenge you now. After all, you rose through the ranks in the Yellow Sand Continent. Although there are intelligence reports, many people do not believe that you have such strength.”

"After all, being able to force back two top-ranked experts at the same time is a feat that even the top ten kids can't achieve."

"So they all want to see your true strength, whether you are really as powerful as the rumors say."

Upon hearing the old man's explanation, Li Lan immediately understood.

It turns out that these people didn't believe he could make it into the top ten of the list based on his own strength, and they all wanted to prove his abilities.

Li Lan sneered, and then said:

"If they dare to come, I wouldn't mind raising the rankings again."

Upon hearing this, the old man was immediately startled.

This kid is still so confident.

"Alright, I'm just reminding you that before the ancient ruins open, you should try to avoid provoking powerful enemies."

"However, if you have other plans, you don't need to heed my advice."

"After all, someone did the same thing during the last battle for the ruins."

Upon hearing this, Li Lan immediately became interested.

Li Lan knew very little about the previous dispute over the ruins, so he wanted to learn more.

"Just what is that person's strength? Is he the supreme god of Huangtian?"

Li Lan only knew that the supreme god in the Yellow Heaven ultimately obtained the greatest opportunity in the ancient ruins; he knew nothing else.

At this moment, the old man shook his head and said:

"It wasn't that person."

"He was not well-known in the ruins at the time, and only gradually climbed to the top and finally obtained the greatest opportunity in the ruins."

"The person I'm talking about is just as confident as you, and equally powerful, almost unmatched among his peers."

"But it is precisely because of this that he has attracted too many powerful enemies."

"In the end, he was besieged by countless people in the battle for the ruins and perished there."

"That happened ten thousand years ago, so there's no point in telling you now."

Upon hearing this, Li Lan was immediately taken aback.

It is unexpected that such a figure existed in the ancient ruins dispute ten thousand years ago, capable of being invincible among his peers, his strength must have been extremely terrifying.

However, Li Lan was also extremely confident in his strength. The power of the Great Dao Rules he had mastered was enough to crush all his peers.

After all, his cultivation method is different from ordinary people, and the power of the Great Dao rules that his body can contain is much greater than that of others.

With the added training he's received these past few days, Li Lan is now able to freely integrate the power of the Great Dao's rules and unleash even more powerful spells.

Even if he were to sweep aside all his peers, Li Lan would not be afraid.

"Thank you for the reminder, I will pay attention."

Upon hearing this, the old man nodded in satisfaction, and then said:

"It's already very good that you can control your mind."

"However, it is still necessary to stand out in those ancient ruins."

"If no one knows your reputation, it will also cause a lot of trouble."

"However, it would be best to find a few like-minded companions to go with you, so that you can navigate that ancient ruin with ease."

Even if you are no match for others, you can still escape unscathed.

Li Lan was naturally convinced of this.

Upon hearing the old man say this, Li Lan immediately smiled and said:

"Since you've said so, do you already have someone in mind?"

Upon hearing this, the old man immediately laughed.

Then, he snapped his fingers, and a powerful aura immediately appeared outside the door.

Sensing this powerful aura, Li Lan was immediately surprised.

This person possesses an extremely powerful aura and an incredibly terrifying destructive force.

Within this destructive power, there seems to be a faint glimmer of life.

This is a profound understanding of the rules of energy, a realization of creating life from destruction.

This person must be extremely powerful; his understanding of the laws of energy is almost on par with Li Lan's.

The door was pushed open, and a woman entered the room.

After arriving, the woman first bowed to the old man with clasped hands, and then looked at Li Lan.

As Li Lan sensed the energy rules emanating from her, the woman also sensed the terrifying energy rules emanating from him.

Strands of the Great Dao aura manifested on Li Lan's body, and she could even see the phantom of the Golden Lotus of the Great Dao appearing above Li Lan's head.

Upon realizing this, the woman instantly felt a sense of respect for Li Lan.

"My name is Bai Xinglu, and I am the last disciple of the Starry Sky Sect Master. You must be Li Lan, right?"

Upon seeing the woman appear, Li Lan immediately looked at her.

After observing her closely, Li Lan found that this woman had an extraordinary demeanor and showed no arrogance whatsoever.

When facing Li Lan, he had only respect in his eyes, and no other thoughts.

Li Lan was immediately startled.

Such an extraordinary woman is truly a genius in cultivation; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she possesses an innate Dao physique.

Li Lan also clasped his hands in greeting and said:

"It is indeed I, Miss Bai, who has long admired your name."

At this moment, Bai Xinglu suddenly said:

"I sense that the power of your energy rules is very strong. How about we have a spar and hone our skills together?"

Upon hearing this, Li Lan was immediately taken aback.

They're going to start fighting the moment they meet?
