Chapter 663 Whatever you say goes!
With the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching, Fuyang City has a tradition of releasing lanterns to commemorate the deceased. The city is a sea of lanterns. Xue Lan and Cui Wu weaved through the diverse crowds and stopped beside a large restaurant.
A sweet, girlish voice came from above:
"Master!"
Xue Lan looked up and saw Bai Taolan, dressed in a festive red ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), sitting on the edge of the bed, with small bells hanging from her hair ribbons swaying constantly.
"Where is your sister Xiaotong?"
"Master." Chang Jing, holding a pipa, appeared at the window: "She went to urge the dishes to be served. There are a lot of people in the restaurant today."
Xue Lan's expression changed as soon as she saw the pipa in the man's hand, and she asked suspiciously:
"What are you doing holding the pipa? I already told you that Yunhui Peak doesn't accept male disciples."
She should have kept quiet about it, because the moment she brought it up, Chang Jing, who had been smiling just moments before, instantly wilted, like a flower battered by frost.
"I know, I'm just keeping something in mind."
As he spoke, he plucked the strings of his pipa a couple of times: "Would the owner like to come up and listen to a piece?"
Xue Lan slapped her forehead and looked at him seriously: "From now on, you're not allowed to ask people by the window if they want to listen to music!"
"okay……"
Chang Jing gave a perfunctory reply and left, clinging to his hobby.
"Senior Sister," Cui Wu asked curiously, "who are these children?"
"The new disciples recruited by Wan Gong Fang were all snatched by your senior sister from the Ascension Conference."
Cui Wu nodded knowingly: "It will surely be a bloody battle."
Bloodshed and carnage?
Xue Lan thought back for a moment.
"Actually, that's not true!"
It was nothing more than stealing someone's home beforehand, using magical artifacts as bait, and resorting to deception and fraud... that's all.
Just as he was thinking of swindling and cheating, another head popped out of the window.
With his handsome features, Yuan Zhen tidied Bai Taolan's messy hair, looking every bit the good senior brother.
"Master!"
The boy shouted at Xue Lan, "I've finished practicing the technique. When are you going to give me the rest?"
Xue Lan casually replied, "Don't rush, I'll write it for you tomorrow... I'll write the copy for you from memory tomorrow."
Yuan Zhen was relieved to hear this and bowed to Xue Lan.
"That disciple will come to see you at noon the day after tomorrow."
Then he turned and left.
"Hey, wait a minute!" Xue Lan called out to him, "Where's Changfeng?"
Yuan Zhen's smile froze, and he patted Bai Taolan's head. Then he jumped out of the window.
"Changfeng went to see his father."
"It should be outside Luoxia City."
Xue Lan nodded gently: "Okay, I understand."
"Go and eat something. Who knows when we'll let you out again?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhen's expression changed drastically. After a few nimble leaps, he returned to the second floor, grabbed Bai Taolan, and disappeared from the window.
Xue Lan couldn't help but smile, but a hint of worry quickly appeared between her brows.
Cui Wu noticed that something was wrong with her and asked softly:
"Senior sister, what's wrong?"
Xue Lan sighed:
"I'm a little worried about the child."
"The demons within a thousand miles of Luoxia Mountain have been wiped out six times, so don't worry, Senior Sister," Cui Wu said with a smile.
While resting in Fuyang City, the cultivators who had retreated from the front lines had nothing to do, so their greatest hobby was capturing demons in front of Luoxia Mountain.
It's considered a popular form of entertainment, suitable for all ages in the cultivation world.
"Of course I trust you." Xue Lan gave a reassured smile.
"But you don't trust Lu Feng."
The inner demon straightened his clothes in his sea of consciousness and spoke.
Xue Lan's tone was cheerful:
"You still understand me!"
Although Lu Feng has become a model young man under her and Xue Tong's guidance, Xue Lan is still wary of him.
Especially when I'm going to see my junior sister.
So before entering the territory of Luoxia City, Xue Lan found a deserted wilderness and threw it at Lu Feng.
They called it a search for demons to achieve great deeds...
"I understand, I'll go run it for you."
Xue Lan's demonic soul clasped its hands together in its sea of consciousness: "Thank you."
"In reality, it just means I should stay away from Miss Cui."
"How dare she think so highly of me?"
Hundreds of miles away at Luoxia Mountain, Lu Feng complained to the single-edged sword behind him.
He is now walking along the city wall of Luoxia City, treating every dead branch on the ground with indifference and crushing them with his feet.
Dan Dao understood that this is what happens when a person is spineless.
The young man, dressed in black, was like a ghost, and had a chilling aura about him.
Surprisingly, he has a knack for stirring up trouble when he speaks.
"You can challenge her to a duel; wolves love duels."
Lu Feng frowned at him: "I'm not stupid."
Xue Lan loves dueling, and he even tries to send himself to be a toy.
Xue Lan was pleased and happy!
And what about him? Not even a bone fragment remained.
"I would rather be killed by the demons than become Lord Wolf King's food."
Dan Dao nodded in agreement with Lu Feng's idea.
In fact, he himself was also shocked when he learned Xue Lan's true identity.
First, I couldn't understand why Xue Lan would appear in the lower realm, and then I couldn't understand how that old bastard Xie Linghuan could pick up a demon lord of the fifteenth realm as his disciple.
But he has come to terms with it now.
He was just a knife, a knife specifically designed to kill demons.
The sword's owner died, and he himself had broken it once.
He had used up all his luck in his life to meet Xue Lan in the mortal realm, who could reforge his blade and suppress his murderous aura.
Therefore, Xue Lan's identity and past are not important, as long as she stands on the side of Yuanming Realm.
He was just a broken knife, and a broken knife doesn't think too much.
"You'd better see if Xue Lan is willing to eat you before you become food for him!"
A cold female voice came from beside him, and Lu Feng flinched. He turned his head slightly and saw a pair of icy blue eyes.
Lu Feng: Something even more terrifying than Xue Lan has arrived!!!
The young man swiftly hid behind the single-edged sword before peeking out to see the white-clad woman who had suddenly appeared.
"Hello, sir/madam."
"What's more terrifying than Xue Lan is Xue Lan's inner demons." Lu Feng cursed himself hundreds of times in his heart.
It's definitely not a good habit to talk behind someone's back.
"It's alright. You can cricket her." The inner demon slowly took a step forward.
“I often cricket in her mind’s eye.”
Lu Feng covered his eyes: "Sir, what you did wasn't a cricket anymore, what you did was open provocation."
"Really?" The inner demon looked at Lu Feng.
"If it were one of those hot-tempered rogue cultivators, they would be ready to fight to the death and hunt him down for miles at the drop of a hat."
The inner demon couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Feng backed away in fear.
There's no other reason than that the inner demon's smile always carries an inescapable evil aura that sends chills down one's spine.
"If you put it that way, Xue Lan has a pretty good temper. She has never said that she wants to be my mortal enemy."
One of the wolf kings who was eavesdropping in Fuyang City froze.
Xue Lan: Uh, whatever you say!
She turned to look at Cui Wu: "During this rest period in Fuyang City, please call Siyin back for me."
"Just say I've come back to keep my promise."
