NFBE Chapter 456 You all owe me a favor!
Chapter 456 You all owe me a favor!
"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I, Ruyu, will certainly not fail your trust!"
Jing Ruyu put the tortoise shell that Xue Lan had given her into her storage bag, her beautiful peach blossom eyes full of smiles.
The woman took a jade pendant from her waist and handed it to Xue Lan:
"This is a token of my Lingqiao Pavilion. If you ever ascend to the Upper Realm, you must come to my Lingqiao Pavilion as a guest."
Xue Lan smiled as she accepted the jade pendant, stroking the flowing cloud patterns on it.
"must!"
After tucking the jade pendant into her sleeve, Xue Lan seemed to remember something, and smiled as she looked at Jing Ruyu:
"The son of the demon god is cunning; fellow Daoist, please strive to annihilate his demonic soul."
"There was a sword aura from a senior in the Wan Gong Fang inside that tortoise shell just now. It can be activated with a drop of blood."
Xue Lan took a step back and bowed to Jing Ruyu with her hands clasped in greeting:
"Miss Jing, take care!"
Jing Ruyu smiled at her and said, "Take care, fellow Daoist."
"If I am fortunate enough to return to the lower realm, I will definitely visit the Zhihe Cliff of the Xuanhuang Sect."
After saying this, the two walked out of the barrier together, and Lei Chuxi and the others slowly surrounded them from a distance.
Lei Chuxi looked Xue Lan up and down, and finally secretly transmitted her voice:
"Consider this a favor I, Lei Pengcheng, owe you."
Xue Tong, who was secretly connecting from the side, offered a sharp critique:
"That arrogant brat!"
Xue Lan almost burst out laughing, and the woman replied to her telepathically:
"You're quite nice to this little crested crane!"
Lei Chuxi's expression stiffened slightly.
The young man spoke as if he had been relieved:
"Ruyu was my sister Zhenzhen's best friend when she was alive."
Xue Lan was stunned, wishing she could slap herself twice on the spot.
Xue Lan: I deserve to die!
Xue Lan was eager to change the subject. So she smiled and said:
"I wanted to save her because I couldn't stand the Demon God's son!"
At this moment, Lin Buyu forcefully joined the telepathic communication:
"Really?"
Xue Lan: "If not, how did you get in?"
Lin Buyu smiled gently: "Never mind that, answer my question first."
Xue Lan thought for a moment and said, "Really!"
Xue Tong swung on a swing inside the Chonglou Illusionary Treasure Map, listening to the three people's conversation without interjecting:
"It's true, how could it not be true?"
"These are all verifiable battle records, okay?"
The studious Xue Lan couldn't help but ask:
What does "verifiable battle record" mean?
Looking at the numerous screenshots on her system panel, Xue Tong finally decided to lie:
"It means I remember everything; I am a history book!"
Xue Lan: "Oh!"
After receiving Xue Tong's perfunctory response, Xue Lan looked at Lin without saying a word:
"Since Lei Chuxi has done me a favor, for the sake of good fortune, you owe me one too!"
Lin Buyu rolled her eyes at Xue Lan, seemingly unable to believe that such a shameless person could exist in the world:
Why should I owe you a favor?
Xue Lan: "Because it's auspicious!"
Lin remained silent: "What does your good or bad luck have to do with me?"
Xue Lan glanced at Lin without speaking, and had no choice but to use her trump card:
"How about this, several years from now, you give me the horns on your head, and I'll protect your descendants, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Buyu's pupils shrank sharply, and he looked at Xue Lan as if he had seen a ghost.
Lin Buyu transmitted his voice to Xue Lan privately, his voice trembling slightly:
"senior?"
Xue Lan straightened her back and put her hands in her pockets:
"It's me! It's me!"
Lin blinked: "A mere heretical cultivator?"
Xue Lan immediately shook her head violently.
This cannot be admitted, this absolutely cannot be admitted now!
Seeing Xue Lan's unwilling expression, Lin Buyu sighed helplessly:
“My Junling Mountain also owes you a favor. If we are destined to come to the Upper Realm, I will invite you to dinner in Fuguang City.”
Xue Lan smiled gently: "Can I bring people?"
Lin remained silent, still unwilling to believe that Xue Lan was the senior from the trial. The woman nodded listlessly.
"Ok, Ok!"
Having made two prodigies from the upper realm owe her favors, Xue Lan smiled broadly.
Lei Chuxi had a bad feeling about Xue Lan's smile, and quickly said:
"Fellow Daoist, matters in the Upper Realm are truly urgent. The Wan Gong Workshop trial has concluded. We should be going!"
Xue Lan waved goodbye with some reluctance:
"See you later!"
"I'll come visit you in Lei Pengcheng sometime!"
While you're at it, go visit your grandpa!
Lei Chuxi inwardly refused Xue Lan's request to come, but upon closer reflection, she realized that with Xue Lan's current cultivation level, it would take her at least a thousand or eight hundred years to ascend to immortality.
Relieved, Lei Pengcheng's young city lord smiled and said:
"You're welcome anytime! I'll treat you then!"
Many, many years later, when a younger generation asked Lei Chuxi what his biggest regret in life was, the City Lord pondered for a long time and solemnly replied:
"I owe a madwoman a favor and allowed her to come to Leipeng City!"
After a series of seemingly sincere but ultimately superficial pleasantries, Lei Chuxi and the others transformed into streaks of light and flew eastward.
By this time, most of the cultivators and demons around had left, and Xue Lan raised her hand and shook Xue Tong out of her sleeve.
The young girl appeared before Xue Lan, holding the soul-guiding object, and her first question was:
"The matter with Jing Ruyu has been resolved. What do we do now?"
Xue Lan adopted a thoughtful expression:
"Let me think, should I go to the wasteland or..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Xue Lan felt something choking her.
Dao Xuanzi's voice, tinged with anger, came from behind the woman:
"Why go to the desolate region? Come back to the Xuanhuang Sect with me."
Xue Tong gave Xue Lan an awkward smile:
"Sister, good luck to you!"
After saying that, he was about to leave with the Soul Guide in his arms.
Who knew that after taking only two steps, a magnificent immortal sword appeared before them.
"You two go back too!"
A few breaths later, Xue Lan and the other two little bitter gourds followed behind Dao Xuanzi. Xue Lan cautiously spoke:
"Senior Uncle, is severing karmic ties really that urgent?"
Dao Xuanzi turned and glanced at her before speaking:
"It's not just about severing cause and effect!"
"The new Ascension Ceremony and disciple competition are about to begin."
The old man's voice suddenly sounded much older when he said this.
"The Ascension Ceremony is about to begin again..."
Xue Lan recalled her experiences in the mortal realm and the cultivation world over the years, and couldn't help but sigh:
"Time truly flies like an arrow, and the days pass like a shuttle!"
"Am I still preparing for this Ascension Ceremony?" Xue Lan asked Xuanzi.
Dao Xuanzi turned his head and glared at her: "If you take charge, what will happen to the position of the head of the Wan Gong Fang? Will I go up and sit there?"
Xue Lan dared not speak, wondering why the Master Master's attack power seemed exceptionally high today.
Perhaps realizing his tone had been too harsh, Dao Xuanzi stroked his beard, trying to cover up his embarrassment.
"For this Ascension Ceremony, I called Qi Zhou back from the front lines of the desolate region and asked him to teach Xiao Shan."
Xue Lan waved her sleeve:
"That's too much trouble. Wasn't it me last time? I can teach Xiaoshan."
Dao Xuanzi stopped and looked at her with a cold smile:
"you?"
Xue Lan rummaged through her sleeves and finally found the booklet of the Ascension Ceremony program that Xu Qizhou had written for her years ago.
Xue Lan wore an awkward smile:
"I can teach him while I'm reading a book!"
Dao Xuanzi turned away coldly.
"No...Master Uncle..."
Xue Lan wanted to prove herself as a useful disciple to her master, but suddenly someone tugged at her sleeve from behind.
"What's wrong?" Xue Lan turned around and asked.
Xue Tong spoke with a somewhat embarrassed expression:
"I only remembered when I heard about the Ascension Ceremony. Did we forget to send someone?"
The girl swallowed hard.
"Lu Feng".
