Chapter 290: Your Filial Piety Is Really Beautiful
In the room, Li Ran held the jade in his hand, engraved his thoughts into it, and then put it into a special jade letter.
Spirit energy rippled from the hand seals.
Not long after, a pure white falcon rushed in from the window, grabbed the jade letter on the table, and then flew away again.
This was the aurora falcon, a spirit demon beast. It could travel thousands of miles without feeling tired.
After special training, it would send the jade letter to a nearby sect’s stronghold, and then the enforcer would send it to the Xuanlin Mountain through the sect’s formation.
This was the fastest way to communicate with the sect.
Li Ran looked at the falcon and said helplessly, “Sect Master Chu, the letter has already been sent away. It will take at least two to three days for Master to reply. You… Are you sure you want to keep an eye on me?”
Chu Lingchuan stood behind him and nodded. “That’s right. You have too many ideas. I have no choice but to guard against you.”
…….
Li Ran rubbed the space between his brows. “Aren’t you afraid that this matter will spread and affect the reputation of the Myriad Swords Pavilion?”
Chu Lingchuan laughed, “Do you think I care? I can even live in the Imperial Palace, so why can’t I live in the Li family residence?”
“Alright.” Li Ran sighed as if he was disappointed. “Let’s go. I’ll prepare a room for you.”
Other party was quite sincere this time.
Moreover, she only wanted to wait for news. There was no reason to chase her away.
Chu Lingchuan said, “There’s no rush. It’s still early. There’s something I’m quite curious about.”
Li Ran asked, “What is it?”
Chu Lingchuan said, “At that time on the Dao Seeking Platform, my aura activated a Spirit communicating jade, and there was a trace of the Great Emperor’s Dao Law inside… Who was that person?”
Li Ran was stunned. “You can’t sense him?”
Li Wuqiang was in the Li family’s secret ground.
Distance between the two of them was so close that he thought that the other party had already sensed him.
Chu Lingchuan shook her head and said, “I have a bit of perception, but it’s not obvious. As both of you are Imperial Clans men, if you were to deliberately conceal your aura, I wouldn’t be so easy to discover it. It’s very likely that he didn’t know that I had come.”
Li Ran nodded.
Indeed, Li Wuqiang had been hiding in the secret ground, but few people in the outside world knew.
He looked at her with a doubtful expression. “You’re not asking about this because you want to take advantage of this opportunity to take revenge, are you?”
Chu Lingchuan was both angry and amused as she said, “I’m looking for you for revenge. What does it have to do with the others?”
That makes sense.” Li Ran replied, “That’s my Li family’s ancestor, Li Wuqiang.”
“Li Wuqiang?” Chu Lingchuan pinched her chin and began to recall seriously.
She seemed to have heard of this name before, but the two of them probably hadn’t interacted with each other, so they didn’t have any impression of it either.
She asked, “If you don’t mind, I’ll go over and greet him?”
After all, they were both Emperor-levels. If they came to the other side’s territory, they would definitely have to inform them.
Although Chu Lingchuan had a fiery temper, she was polite.
“I don’t mind,” Li Ran rubbed his nose. “But the ancestor might really mind…”
Old Li seemed to be quite afraid of Chu Lingchuan.
He thought for a moment and said,”How about this? I’ll tell him first, so he’ll be mentally prepared.”
“Sure.” Chu Lingchuan nodded.
……
Li family secret ground.
As usual, Li Wuqiang sat in the pavilion, drinking tea.
However, his eyes had no focus, and he was a little lost in thought.
What did that kid do? Not only did he activate the Spirit Channeling Jade, he even had Leng Wuyan and Yi Qinglan attack at the same time?
During the Immortal Ascension Assembly, the moment the dragon-shaped jade pendant was activated, Li Wuqiang immediately sensed it.
He had thought that Li Ran was in danger, so he immediately prepared to go over to save him. However, before he could move, he sensed the other two powerful auras.
He was extremely familiar with these two auras.
One was Leng Wuyan, and the other was Yi Qinglan.
He immediately broke out in cold sweat.
Two of them had quite a bit of a grudge against him. Not only had they obtained all the holy treasures, they had even damaged their Dao foundations.
This kid is truly absurd. He actually provoked three Emperor Rank experts to attack at the same time in Central City?
This has never happened before!
Li Wuqiang looked worried. I wonder if Leng Wuyan has sensed my aura…
Rumble!
At this moment, the door to the secret ground was pushed open.
Li Ran poked his head out and walked in. “Ancestor, are you busy?”
Li Wuqiang rolled his eyes at him. “It’s truly beyond my expectations that you’ll be able to return alive.”
“Hehe.” Li Ran smiled awkwardly. “The main reason is that the Patriarch’s Spirit Channeling Jade is extremely valuable.”
If it weren’t for the Spirit Channeling Jade’s help, Yi Qinglan and Leng Wuyan wouldn’t have noticed.
Then, Shen Ning had really been kidnapped by Chu Lingchuan.
“Stop flattering me.” Li Wuqiang hesitated for a moment before asking, “Your master and Yi Qinglan… Have you mentioned this old man?”
Li Ran shook his head. “No…”
“That’s good.” Li Wuqiang finally heaved a sigh of relief when he felt a huge burden fall from his heart.
Li Ran continued, “However, Chu Lingchuan seems to be quite interested in you.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Li Wuqiang casually waved his hand. “As long as it’s not your master or that Daoist nun, I don’t care about anyone else.”
“Do you really not care? Are you not afraid of her?”
“Afraid of her? Hmph!” Li Wuqiang said sternly,” This old man is an Emperor. If your master hadn’t made a move today, this old man would have met with the head of Myriad Sword Pavilion!
“However, it’s a pity that Chu Lingchuan has been suppressed like this. She must have returned to the Eastern Sea, right?” He sighed.
It was as if there was some regret.
Li Ran nodded. “I’m much relieved to hear you say that.”
He turned around and shouted, “You can come in now.”
“Hmm?” Li Wuqiang asked doubtfully, “What do you mean?”
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to sense something. “This aura…”
He suddenly looked towards the entrance and saw a woman dressed in green and with bare feet slowly walking in.
There wasn’t a trace of spirit power fluctuation on her body, but it contained an extremely dangerous aura.
Li Ran said, “She is Chu Lingchuan.”
“Chu Lingchuan?!” Li Wuqiang gulped as cold sweat rolled down his forehead. “You, why did you bring her here?”
Li Ran shrugged. “I didn’t want you to meet her, but didn’t you say you wanted to meet her?”
Li Wuqiang was itching to slap himself.
There was nothing to brag about.
He said unhappily, “Why didn’t this old man find you so obedient before?”
Li Ran smiled and said, “I’ve always been filial and sensible. It’s not like you don’t know.”
Li Wuqiang gritted his teeth. “You sure are filial!”
At this moment, Chu Lingchuan walked in front of him, “This… It must be the Li family’s Old Master, right?”
Li Wuqiang hurriedly stood up and smile, “Sect Master Chu, you’re too polite. I’ve heard a lot about you. Just call me Little Qiang.”
“Little Qiang?” Looking at his white hair and beard, Chu Lingchuan scratched her head. “I’ll call you Ancestor Li.”
“As you like, come and have a seat. Welcome.”
Li Ran couldn’t help covering his face when he saw the old master’s flattering smile.
What about our promise of hard work?
