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

Chapter 1948

With his wealth of experience, how could he not know the intentions of the Star Devouring Sect Master?

The reward was merely a formality; the true intention of the Star Devouring Sect Master was simply to ensure that if anyone investigated the matter later, the blame would fall on that woman.

Then the Star Devouring Sect can hand over this woman to avoid the disaster of destroying the sect.

Yue Nu was as clear-headed as a mirror and understood the intricacies of the matter.

But she was just a minor, unnamed disciple; what could she do even if she found out?

"Lord Li Lan, that woman is currently inside the Star Devouring Sect."

"Back then, because of Yi Jun's desperate sacrifice, the position of the seventh elder in the sect has been vacant for a long time."

"So the sect leader went along with it and bestowed the position of Seventh Elder upon her as well."

"If I remember correctly, the Seventh Elder's name should be Xiao Rong."

Seventh Elder?

Li Lan was taken aback for a moment, then a smile curved her lips.

Earlier today, Li Lan was assigned to cultivate Ghost Sparks because Luo Ye had plotted against her.

The place responsible for cultivating the Ghost Fire Flower is located on the Seventh Elder's mountain peak.

In retrospect, this trip to cultivate will-o'-the-wisps was truly a win-win situation.

Luo Ye, oh Luo Ye, he got a good beating and was even assigned to the mountain where Xiao Rong was.

If this isn't a good thing, then nothing in the world is good.

"grown ups?"

Seeing Li Lan grinning foolishly, Yue Nu couldn't help but ask him a question.

"Cough cough."

Li Lan suppressed her excitement and said:

"Alright, I know about this now, and it's time for me to go back."

"You should stay here and cultivate during this time. Remember to keep a low profile and don't cause any trouble."

"Yes!"

Yue Nu respectfully replied.

Afterwards, Li Lan went straight back to the manor.

The next morning, Li Lan brought Da Niu to the foot of the mountain where the Seventh Elder, Xiao Rong, was located.

When they arrived, there were already people waiting there.

Judging from his attire, it can be confirmed that he is not an elder or deacon, but rather an ordinary sect disciple.

However, his expression was somewhat gloomy, and his mental state was not very good.

After Li Lan used his divine power to examine the person, he discovered that the person's soul was not complete!

Logically speaking, if a person's soul is missing something, the person will become abnormal.

Just like Su Yao, some people are unable to cultivate like normal people. Drooling and listlessness are only mild symptoms. Some are even unable to walk normally.

However, the person just stood there, and apart from not being very energetic, there was nothing unusual about him.

It seems that the medicine garden is also a place of trouble, otherwise it would not have been taken in by the Star Devouring Sect, which is full of evil cultivators.

"You must be the new handymen Li Lan and Da Niu. Come with me."

With that deep voice, the man headed straight up the mountain, not caring whether Li Lan and the others followed.

"Brother Li Lan, why do I feel that there's something strange about this place?"

Da Niu also sensed that something was wrong.

Li Lan chuckled lightly:

"If it's not eerie, how could it be the Star Devouring Sect?"

"Let's go, we'll only know the final conclusion after we've seen it."

As we walked towards the mountain peak, the sky gradually darkened.

The occasional wails and howls of ghosts made the place even more eerie.

After reaching the halfway point of the mountain, the man suddenly stopped.

He pointed to a secluded pool and said slowly:

"That is where the Ghost Fire Flower is cultivated. You only need to circulate your cultivation technique daily and invest your divine power to help it grow healthily."

After saying that, he left without looking back, seemingly unwilling to stay even a moment longer.

After he left, Li Lan and Da Niu began to look around the place.

Along the way, Li Lan saw many flowers and plants.

Some of the medicinal herbs even tempted Li Lan.
