Chapter 832 Yanlan's Reminder
Small head, big question mark.
Zhao Mu never expected that the Little Sword King's imposing mouth would utter those two words; it was all too abrupt.
"Cough cough~"
He coughed twice and chuckled awkwardly, "The word 'mistress' sounds a bit too harsh. My relationship with Fairy Yu is mutual."
Although it was mostly the other party who took the initiative in his relationship with Yu Ying, he couldn't say such things out loud; it was too embarrassing.
Are you sure you haven't been scammed?
Yanlan placed her hands on the table, leaned forward slightly, and said very seriously, "Yu Ruoling is no ordinary woman; she has made a great name for herself in the Cangwu Realm."
"What do you mean?"
Zhao Mu didn't think Yanlan would be so bored as to sow discord between him and Yu Ying; perhaps there was something he didn't know.
"Do you know how many people from the Cang and Yin families will come to stop her?"
Zhao Mu shook his head. He didn't know, but he was sure there would be a lot of people, because even Cang Ming and Yin Yu would be there.
"all!"
"what!"
Zhao Mu was shocked. "How is this possible? Cang Ming and Yin Yu shouldn't be able to mobilize the other teams, right?"
Everyone here is a chosen one of heaven, who would be willing to obey Cang Ming and Yin Yu's orders? The Cang Lian, Cang Lin, and Cang Li he had encountered before had no respect for Cang Ming whatsoever.
The same applies to the Yin family; Yin Yuan didn't take Yin Yu seriously at all.
"Cang Ming? Yin Yu? They certainly don't have that ability."
Yanlan shrugged dismissively and said, "Because this is an order from the higher-ups of the Cang and Yin families, no one will disobey it. If you want to help Yu Ruoling, it's as difficult as climbing to the sky. I advise you to give up as soon as possible."
"You mean, Yu Ying deliberately lied to me?"
"Of course, it's also possible that even she herself doesn't know what kind of situation she will face."
"And where did you learn that from?"
"I have my own channels."
Seeing that Zhao Mu was staring at her, Yan Lan pondered for a moment and then said frankly, "Alright, actually the Yin family has contacted me, hoping that I can also make a move at that time. And I believe that not only me, but other prodigies should also have been invited."
"..."
Zhao Mu looked puzzled. "No, why? It's just breaking through to the Fourth Extreme Realm!"
"Who knows what's really involved?"
Yanlan put her hand on Zhao Mu's shoulder and said very seriously, "As a friend, I still want to advise you to give up."
"What if I insist on helping Yu Ying?"
Looking back on their time together, Zhao Mu didn't believe that Yu Ying was being insincere. Besides, if she were insincere, would she need to sacrifice to that extent? Apart from not actually having intercourse, they had done almost everything they could.
He didn't believe that Yu Ying was setting a trap for him at that time.
"You...you're really stubborn!"
Yanlan gave her a disappointed look, sighed heavily, and rolled her eyes, saying, "Help, help, help you, okay!"
"But let me make this clear: if things don't work out, I'll not only run away myself, but I'll take you with me."
"Well....."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Mu was immediately stunned, then burst out laughing, "Fine, whatever you say."
Regardless of any physical intimacy, there was indeed a subtle attraction between him and Yanlan, like a confidante? In any case, it was definitely not a proper romantic relationship.
Although Yanlan is arrogant and doesn't take anyone seriously, people like Lü Ran are just cannon fodder in her eyes.
But once someone is accepted by her, she will truly entrust her life to them.
Such people are rare and precious.
"Let's go, let's rest for a bit."
Yanlan got up from the bench and left the room.
Once the door was closed, Zhao Mu began to take stock of his spoils. There were indeed quite a few good things, but the only one that really caught Zhao Mu's attention was the bone he had taken from Cang Lian.
It wasn't that he looked down on other things, but rather that he had received so many good things before that he had become numb to them.
Just like those ninth-grade spiritual artifacts, he left them in a corner and never paid them any attention.
Of course, we should thank the unscrupulous Taoist for his generous gift. I wonder how many good things that guy has collected now. I'll find some time to give him another good beating.
To be honest, he was quite curious about what was hidden in the unscrupulous Taoist's sea of consciousness.
Last time, I only broke through the dantian and spiritual sea, and the sea of consciousness was barely touched before this guy was awakened. There must be something extraordinary inside.
now.
The white bone lay flat on the table, its appearance unremarkable, at most a little crystalline, and not much different from ordinary bones. However, this thing had clearly not undergone any tempering, and had even been eroded by countless years, yet it was still unaffected by even a heavy spear of near-heaven grade.
"It looks like a leg bone, but it doesn't quite look like a human's."
Although Zhao Mu did not know what the ancient human race looked like, he could tell from the houses and buildings in the ruins that the difference from the present was not significant. Even if the ancient human race was taller than the present one, it would not be too outrageous.
Based on the bone, its owner was probably over four meters tall, much taller than an adult barbarian, and most likely not a pure human.
"I'll bring it to my aunt to see next time."
After pondering for a long time, Zhao Mu still couldn't find any clues, so he could only take it back and throw it into a corner.
bang~
The next moment, he lay back on the bed, crossed his legs, and stared blankly at the ceiling.
"Forget it, let's just focus on cultivation!"
Less than a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Mu, who had originally planned to relax and rest, sat up again and took out the eighth-grade Blood-Blazing Fruit that he had exchanged with Lü Ran from his Qiankun Ring.
For body cultivators, this is a truly good thing.
"I wonder if that woman had any tricks up her sleeve?"
Ever since hearing Yanlan's description of Lü Ran, he had been wary of this guy. He dared not swallow the Blood-Blazing Fruit that Lü Ran gave him and had to carefully examine it.
Soul detection, pupil technique scanning up and down.
After struggling for a while without finding anything unusual, he finally relaxed and swallowed the Blood-Blazing Fruit in one gulp.
Boom~
A surge of terrifying energy exploded in his mouth, rushing through his limbs and bones. The violent energy was like a sudden flash flood, intent on destroying everything.
"Sigh~"
Zhao Mu grimaced in pain; even if one cultivated the Heavenly Thunder Technique, being struck by lightning would probably cause this much suffering.
However, this precisely shows that the blood-stained fruit will surprise him.
Hiss~
Hiss~
The intense pain caused him to pant incessantly. When struck by lightning, he could activate the Heavenly Thunder Technique, but this Blood-Sealing Fruit was different; he could only rely on willpower to endure it. In comparison, it was actually more painful at this moment.
