Chapter 406: The princess' mentality collapsed. Mr. Lu, have you grown all your hair yet? !
The mountain wind was howling and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
Lu Zhan didn't want to listen to Wei Yan's recounting of past events at this time, but after all, they cooperated to kill Zhang Ran, so he needed to know the reason.
Wei Yan was reluctant to expose the wound, but he knew that he needed to give an explanation to his partners. After a brief pause, he spoke solemnly:
"Now that my revenge has been taken, I have nothing to hide. The grudge between me and Zhang Ran is more complicated than what people say. People say that I am a loner, a solitary swordsman, but that is not the case."
"About six hundred years ago, there was constant war in southern Xinjiang. The war was brutal and the people were living in misery. I was wandering in the secular world at that time and I met an abandoned baby by the bank of the Lingshui River."
"I couldn't bear to see the abandoned baby starve to death and be eaten by wild beasts, so I felt compassion and adopted her."
"I have always been a loner and had no experience in raising children. I groped my way forward and finally raised her. But when she was 20 years old, she died at the hands of Zhang Ran and his fiancée."
"Zhang Ran wasn't even the dean at that time. He appeared to be a genius student, but in fact he loved practicing evil Kung Fu. He and his fiancée treated human life as worthless.
"My daughter was killed by their evil practices. I once thought about exposing their true colors, but unfortunately Wutong Academy is too famous and no one believed me."
"I can only take revenge in my own way."
"..."
Wei Yan's voice was vague, but filled with sorrow.
It had been more than 600 years since this happened, but every time he thought about it, he still felt a prick in his heart. That incident had unknowingly become his obsession.
Tushan Shiyu pursed his lips: "Zhang Ran really deserves to die."
Wei Yan smiled and said, "This matter is not complicated. It is nothing more than the grudges between cultivators. It's just that my way of revenge is slightly different."
Wei Yan knew that he could not defeat Zhang Ran and his fiancée, and that a forceful approach would not work, so he wanted to bring disgrace upon them.
So Wei Yan deliberately seduced Zhang Ran's fiancée and had an affair with her on their wedding night, thus ruining her reputation and making Zhang Ran lose face. He then killed the woman as a memorial for his dead daughter.
It’s easy to kill a fiancée, but difficult to kill Zhang Ran.
After Zhang Ran became the dean, he had a profound background and many hidden cards. Wei Yan had been fighting wits and courage with him for many years. Even with the existence of the Twelve Golden Books, he was still unable to kill Zhang Ran.
until today.
"Thank you for your help, Senior. Otherwise, it would be difficult for me to crack Zhang Ran's Twelve Golden Books, let alone kill him. If needed in the future, Wei Yan is willing to sacrifice his life."
Wei Yan stood up and bowed seriously. In addition to his sincere gratitude, there was also a hint of fear.
Although Lu Zhan was dressed as an old man, Wei Yan's innate magical power was the perception of "Qi".
Wei Yan knew that Lu Zhan was very young.
He has such strength at such a young age. It’s better not to offend such people.
Wei Yan clasped his hands together, his expression solemn: "Today, Wei Yan swears here that in the future, if I hesitate for even a moment, I will be struck by lightning!"
All vows made by practitioners will come true and should not be made lightly.
Lu Zhan felt the other party's sincerity, he reached out and helped him up, and said meaningfully:
"I killed Zhang Ran because he deserved to die. You don't have to do this. But there is one thing I don't understand. What do you think about the aura of the divine beast?"
Wei Yan picked up the huge sword and resumed his cynical look. He smiled and waved his hand:
"Divine beasts are always elusive. How can ordinary people like us find them? I have been chasing them for several days, but I haven't found even the slightest trace of their presence."
Lu Zhan smiled slightly. Wei Yan was indeed a smart man.
Of course... in this situation, the unintelligent people can easily die.
Seeing Lu Zhan smiling but saying nothing, Wei Yan asked again, "Do you want me to help you kill Xuan Que and the Saint Girl?"
Lu Zhan smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid of Peacock Mountain and the royal family?"
Wei Yan smiled faintly and said, "My wish has been fulfilled, and I am no longer constrained in my actions. Besides, isn't the purpose of our cultivation to be happy with our enemies and to be free and unfettered? Senior helped me, so I naturally have to help you."
“No need.” Lu Zhan rejected the other party’s kindness.
Wei Yan was stunned, but not too surprised. He bowed again and said, "In that case, I will not bother you any more. I will take my leave."
After saying that, Wei Yan smashed the Juque towards the distant sky. The Juque shot out like a meteor. Wei Yan jumped on it and disappeared from sight like a flash of light.
Tushan Shiyu was a little surprised: "Why don't you want his help? Don't you want to kill Xuanque and that saint girl?"
Lu Zhan glanced at Tushan Shiyu and sat down slowly beside him: "I'm not familiar with him."
"..."
Unfamiliar?
What's the reason?
We all killed someone together, so does it matter whether we knew each other or not?
Tushan Shiyu asked curiously, "Why do you want to kill Xuanque and the Saint? Although Xuanque is a bastard, there shouldn't be any deep hatred between you two."
Lu Zhan glanced at her and said meaningfully, "I'm very curious about Xuanque's sparrow feather."
"..."
Tushan Shiyu's expression changed. Just because he was curious about Que Ling, he wanted to kill someone?
She had no objection to killing Xuanque, but the problem was... her golden tail was also a treasure of atavism and evolution... Tushan Shiyu blinked and subconsciously took two steps back.
Lu Zhan said unhappily, "What's that look in your eyes? I'm not interested in your fox tail. It's so hot, you don't need a scarf."
"You are the Weibo." Tushan Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief. She and Lu Zhan had experienced a lot and did not want to become enemies.
"Let's count our gains." Lu Zhan closed his eyes and meditated. While recovering his true energy, he asked, "What treasure did you just obtain?"
"..."
Tushan Shiyu sighed and said, "I knew you were also curious about the secret of the jade tube."
Lu Zhan kept smiling: "Princess Di is too polite. Even without the jade tube, I will still save you. After all, we have fought side by side many times and have a deep friendship."
"..."
Tushan Shiyu couldn't help laughing. She shook her head and said, "You noble family kids are just good at talking and coaxing people. That's all... The jade tube is not a treasure. I just set up a barrier before opening it."
What happened just now made her cautious. This is Southern Xinjiang, not Qingqiu.
Those cultivators not only hate her for the treasure, but also have some "patriotic" xenophobia, so she should be cautious.
Lu Zhan did not say much. While she was setting up the barrier, he sent his spiritual consciousness into her sea of consciousness. While refining the black jade unicorn demon soul, he checked her memory.
The words that Mo Yu Qilin said before his death always made Lu Zhan feel a little uncomfortable.
……
The Black Jade Qilin Flower was born in the Secret Realm of Mirage Demon. It was originally just a peerless fairy flower. Even if it was nourished by spiritual energy and had divine thoughts, it was only a wisp of divine consciousness and it was difficult for it to become a great thing.
Later, strange movements occurred in the depths of the secret realm, and many broken souls rushed out from it.
The divine consciousness of the black jade Qilin flower merged with those incomplete souls, and only then did it possess a complete soul, and was able to exert its tremendous combat power.
After merging with those incomplete souls, the Black Jade Qilin Flower began to practice in seclusion, which could last for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Lu Zhan took a cursory look at its memory, because the Black Jade Qilin Flower was always in the secret realm, the memory was very boring and mostly useless.
The only thing that is certain is that the Black Jade Kylin Flower is very afraid of the depths of the secret realm and dares not set foot in it. It seems that there are unknown dangers hidden in it, which is very terrifying.
Anything that can make the powerful in the realm of creation feel fearful should not be underestimated.
Lu Zhan thought about it for a moment and realized that the words spoken by the Black Jade Qilin before his death were not a curse, but that there really was unimaginable danger hidden deep in the valley.
This place looks even more evil than the Abyss of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Unfortunately, Lu Zhan did not inherit the talent of the Black Jade Qilin, but it filled his soul's stomach. Now he has started to practice multiple souls again, which can be considered a consolation.
After checking the memory fragments of the Black Jade Qilin, Lu Zhan slowly opened his eyes.
Tushan Shiyu was still tinkering with the formation and barrier, looking very serious.
Lu Zhan guessed that the jade tube was very important, otherwise Tushan Shiyu would never have gone to so much trouble to set up the formation.
Lu Zhan did not disturb her, but took out the three storage rings he had seized and began to count the supplies inside.
Compared to Lu Zhan's casualness, Ji Mengli and the others were obviously well prepared.
There are many supplies in the storage ring, including a lot of elixirs, with rich aromas that make people feel refreshed when they smell them.
In addition to elixirs, there are also many high-level spiritual herbs. These spiritual herbs have different functions, but most of them can quickly restore the injured body.
Lu Zhan accepted everything that was offered to him. He threw all the spiritual herbs and pills into his storage ring and searched through it carefully.
Ji Mengli and Zhang Ran were very cunning. There were no treasures in the rings. Apart from elixirs and spiritual herbs, there were mostly sundries and tokens representing their identities.
Lu Zhan put the token away specially, maybe it might be useful in the future.
In Master Wuqing's storage ring, there was a golden Buddhist scripture. The scripture was dim with golden light, and a sacred aura filled the air.
Lu Zhan took it in his hand and looked at it. The Buddhist scripture had no weight at all and was as light as a feather.
"Hmm?" After setting up the barrier, Tushan Shiyu was a little surprised to see the Buddhist scripture: "Why is the Buddha Prajna Sutra of the Zen Sect here?"
Lu Zhan smiled. It seemed that Master Wuqing had some skills, including some Zen-style stuff. He asked casually, "Is it very powerful?"
Tushan Shiyu looked at it for a moment and shook his head:
"This item is not a magic weapon, but it is also important. It is said that it was realized by the founder of the Chanyi Sect before his death. Although it is useless, it is also the face of the Chanyi Sect. I didn't expect that the Chanyi Sect even lost this item."
Lu Zhan raised his eyebrows: "It looks like it's very valuable."
The reputation of the Zen sect should be able to fetch a high price.
Tushan Shiyu seemed to smile, but not smile, and looked around with his bright starry eyes:
"You even dare to sell things from the Zen Sect. Aren't you afraid that they will cause trouble for you?"
"..."
Lu Zhan smiled. What's that? His female boss dared to beat up even the head of the Chanyi Sect. He was just a small fry.
What's more, he "picked up" this thing, so it's reasonable to exchange it for some money.
Putting away the golden scripture, Lu Zhan said lightly: "Whether I am afraid or not is not important. What is important is that Qingqiu is very far away from the Middle-earth. You actually know so much about the Middle-earth. Princess Di has put in a lot of effort, right?"
Tushan Shiyu sat next to Lu Zhan and said calmly:
"Don't meddle in my affairs. What does a noble family know about politics? You said you were here to look for the remaining power of the mirage demon, but I think you are here to rob."
Tushan Shiyu glanced at the storage ring and was a little impressed by Lu Zhan's actions.
She took a quick look just now and found that Lu Zhan's storage ring seemed to be empty. He entered the secret realm without bringing anything with him. It seemed that he came here specifically to raid for supplies.
After Lu Zhan finished looking through the supplies, he took out the Twelve Golden Books and asked, "Where did this thing come from?"
Tushan Shiyu looked at it carefully for a while and said, "It is said to be a treasure passed down from Wutong Academy. It will be very useful for self-defense."
Lu Zhan seemed to be thinking about something. He erased the divine thoughts in the twelve golden books and dripped blood on the surface of the golden books, completely turning the golden books into his own.
"..."
Seeing Lu Zhan's skillful operation, Tushan Shiyu looked at him with admiration again.
This guy... is so skilled!
It seems that this is done quite often.
Lu Zhan ignored her gaze and looked at her waist: "Are you injured?"
