n

n“You’re going to find him? Do you know where he is?” Xiao ran retorted.

n

n“I don’t know!” Lin Yushan shook her head.

n

n“Great Xia has so many borders, but no matter how many there are, there will always be a number. If there’s none here, I’ll go to another place to find him. As long as I’m still breathing, I’ll never give up!”

n

nHe looked at Xiao ran.

n

n“You only have one chance. If you miss tonight, it will be difficult to get another chance like this in the future.”

n

nHe stood up from his chair.

n

nPlop!

n

nLin Yushan knelt in front of Xiao ran, her eyes honest.”Brother Xiao, I’m begging you, can you help me just this once? I can’t let go of brother Qing!”

n

n“You … You’re making things difficult for me!” Xiao ran said.

n

n“I’m begging you!” Lin Yushan pleaded.

n

n“Alright! I’ll help you just this once. ” Xiao ran agreed helplessly.

n

nHe added in his heart that this was all he could do as a brother.

n

n“Thank you!” Lin Yushan was grateful.

n

n“Tell me your plan.” Xiao ran said.

n

n“I want to leave the capital under the cover of night. I want to disguise myself as a man and blend into the caravan. I want to go to the nearest border first.” Lin Yushan said.

n

n“You’re only in the higher heaven realm. You’re destined to overcome all obstacles and dangers on this path. You’d better think it through.” Xiao ran reminded.

n

n“I have no regrets even in death! If I can’t see brother Qing, I’d rather die like this. ” Lin Yushan said.

n

n“Elder Zheng didn’t misjudge you.” Xiao ran was convinced by her.

n

nThis woman was wise and well-read, which was a good thing for Zheng Qing.

n

nHe took out some lightning beads and handed them to her.

n

nFacing her puzzled eyes, Xiao ran said,””Don’t underestimate them. These lightning beads are very powerful. Ordinary martial grandmasters would not be able to withstand it. With them, it was enough to ensure your safety. As long as you pay attention, it will be enough for you to find him. ”

n

n“Thank you, brother Xiao!” Lin Yushan was grateful.

n

n“From what I’ve deduced, elder Zheng might have gone to one of the three places below-Dragon City, tearless city, and cloud City. There’s a high chance that you’ll find him in these three places.”

n

n“Yes.” Lin Yushan solemnly noted it down.

n

n“There’s no time to lose. I’ll send you out now. ” Xiao ran said.

n

nAfter leaving the mansion, he rushed towards the city wall on the north side of the city.

n

nAt this point.

n

nXiao ran took her and leaped out of the city, hiding her from the patrolling Army.

n

nOn the main road.

n

nXiao ran took out some silver notes. The total was less than five thousand taels, and they were all small denomination notes. From this, it could be seen that he was very attentive.

n

n“Take this money. When you’re out, you’d rather let money suffer than let people suffer.”

n

n“Brother Xiao, I …” Lin Yushan was touched.

n

nTears welled up in her eyes.

n

n“Don’t be so wishy-washy, hurry up and go!” Xiao ran reminded.

n

n“Brother Xiao, take care! When we come back, we’ll definitely invite you to our wedding. ” Lin Yushan said.

n

nHe wiped the tears off his face and left without further delay.

n

n“As your brother, this is all I can help you with. The rest will depend on your fate.” Xiao ran looked at the night sky.

n

nHis eyes fell on his right wrist.

n

n“You go and escort her out of the capital.”

n

n“Yes.” The Vermilion Bird flew out and nodded heavily.

n

nIt changed its size and hid its special effect. It became the size of a Sparrow, and its color was ordinary. It was gray and did not look eye-catching.

n

nHe followed her until she left the capital safely before returning.

n

n“Has he left?” Xiao ran asked.

n

n“Yes.” The Vermilion Bird nodded and returned to Xiao ran’s right wrist.

n

n“It’s time to go back,” Xiao ran said.

n

nBack at the residence.

n

nA beautiful figure was sitting in the living room, drinking snow ginseng tea and eating White Lotus cake, like the mistress of the house.

n

n“Has he left?” Ling Qing ‘er asked.

n

n“Did you see that?” Xiao ran asked.

n

nWalking over, Ling Qing ‘er sat beside her and poured him a cup.

n

n“When I came, I saw you sending her off.”

n

n“They’ve already left. ” Xiao ran nodded.

n

n“You’re not busy?”

n

n“Isn’t this because I heard that you’re in charge of investigating the exam case? I was worried, so I put down what I was doing and came over. ” Ling Qing ‘er said.

n

n“Are you alright?”

n

n“I’m sorry for your concern. I’m fine. ” Xiao ran said.

n

nHe stood up from the chair and closed the door.

n

nHe stopped in front of her.

n

nLing Qing ‘er was very nervous. Her long eyelashes blinked slightly.”W-what do you want to do?”

n

n“This damn weather changes so fast. I suddenly feel a little cold, so I want you to help me warm up.”

n

nHe clapped his right hand.

n

nThe room fell into darkness.

n

n“I haven’t finished my words!”

n

n“We’ll talk about it later. ”

n

nEarly in the morning.

n

nThe two of them sat on the chairs again.

n

nLing Qing ‘er rolled her eyes at him.”What was I going to say last night?”

n

n“I’ve forgotten. ” Xiao ran was very straightforward.

n

n“If there’s such a dangerous thing next time, don’t get involved. No matter what the result is, it won’t do you any good.” Ling Qing ‘er reminded.

n

n“Yes.” Xiao ran responded.

n

nLing Qing ‘er knew his personality. Seeing him like this, she didn’t say anything more.

n

nHe silently took out some talismans and placed them in front of him.

n

n“Take these talismans to protect yourself. If you encounter any danger, throw them all out. As long as you don’t meet any mystical Grandmaster, you’ll all die.”

n

nXiao ran kept the talisman.

n

n“Is the research going smoothly?”

n

n“It went quite smoothly. I used this to advance a step further and have already broken through to the first stage of the earth realm.” Ling Qing ‘er said.

n

nThere was one more question that she did not voice out.

n

nEver since she “laid her cards on the table” with Xiao ran in her hometown, she realized that her cultivation speed was very fast, almost three times faster than before.

n

nIn particular, after each ‘showdown’, his cultivation speed would be even faster in the next few days.

n

nShe had also thought about this problem before. It was most likely due to Xiao ran’s special physique.
