Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The innkeeper watched Jiang Lan leave, unable to conceal the astonishment in his eyes.
“Although his talent is lacking, it’s enough.”
“Perhaps it’s because his talent is slightly inferior that makes him so extraordinary.”
“In the end, it’s hard to have both.”
“No wonder Mo Zhengdong didn’t look for new disciples these few years.”
“Grandpa, what are you mumbling about?” The young man came to the counter and asked curiously.
“I’m thinking that you’re no longer young. It’s time to begin your special training,” the innkeeper said, looking at the young man.
The youth was confused.
No, he was still very young.
…
Jiang Lan kept the items, still unable to comprehend the inn owner’s attitude.
He clearly took back the peanuts, but in the end, he gave him even more.
What was he doing?
Did he have too many peanuts and they were going to expire?
Jiang Lan didn’t know, but he would go back and ask his Master. Perhaps he would be able to understand better.
Of course, before he went back, he needed to take care of some things.
Not long after he left the inn.
Someone had been following him.
And they were using something to lure him to a more remote place.
After confirming that the other party was only at the perfected Foundation Establishment realm, he followed the other party’s tricks and slowly walked towards a remote area.
A place where no one would pass by.
When he arrived, Jiang Lan sensed that there were people lying in ambush.
In the end, Jiang Lan stopped at the mountain stream.
There were two people in front of him. One of them was a woman on the ground. She was injured and was wearing plain clothes.
Jiang Lan remembered that it was the demoness he saw earlier.
Beside the demoness was a bludgeoned rabbit.
Its chest seemed to be burning with flames and was covered in wounds.
Not only that, the fur on its body was almost all stripped off, as if it had been tortured.
As for the other person, it was naturally the person he had encountered earlier.
He called himself a disciple of the Fifth Summit, Liao Yan.
“Junior Brother, we meet again. You don’t look very surprised.” Liao Yan smiled at Jiang Lan.
At this moment, they had already surrounded Jiang Lan.
“Does Senior Brother need something?” Jiang Lan asked.
Jiang Lan really didn’t understand why the other party was looking for him.
Of course, there had to be a reason to kill him.
Did he know too much, or did he find him an eyesore?
There had to be a prerequisite.
“Junior Brother, do you know about these two demons?” Liao Yan lowered his head and looked at the two demons before continuing.
“I have something that they stole, but I couldn’t find it on them.
And these two demons have only come into contact with you.
Junior Brother should know where it is, right?”
“I don’t know,” Jiang Lan answered directly.
Liao Yan didn’t mind Jiang Lan’s denial. He only said,
“Then I want to ask you for a favor. I want to borrow something from you.”
“My life?” Jiang Lan asked.
Liao Yan remained quiet.
Jiang Lan’s answer surprised him.
“Junior Brother seems to be fearless. Do you think I can’t do anything to you because we’re all at the perfected Foundation Establishment realm?” Liao Yan didn’t frown. He felt that Jiang Lan’s behavior was a little abnormal.
“No. I’m just curious as to why you want to kill me.” Jiang Lan’s voice carried no emotion.
Instead of answering, Liao Yan looked behind Jiang Lan and suddenly said,
“Junior Brother, look behind you.”
After the other party’s reminder, Jiang Lan looked back.
At this moment, Liao Yan moved.
His hand immediately transformed into a demonic sharp claw as he reached for Jiang Lan’s neck.
Jiang Lan was still looking behind him.
Liao Yan wanted to make use of this opportunity for a sneak attack when the other party was not paying attention.
Attacking openly would bring unnecessary trouble.
It was too easy to be seen on the road back.
This was the most suitable place to take action.
Except…
When he thought he was about to succeed as he saw that his claws were only three inches away from Jiang Lan’s neck…
He…
couldn’t move.
“What does Senior Brother want to do?” Jiang Lan turned around, one hand grabbing Liao Yan’s arm.
Liao Yan wanted to break free, but he could not.
He was in disbelief. He had used all his cultivation and did not underestimate his opponent.
Why?
Why did his opponent block his attack so easily?
“You…”
The moment Liao Yan spoke, a crisp sound was heard.
Crack!
It was the sound of an arm breaking.
“Ah…”
Splat~
Liao Yan’s arm was ripped off by Jiang Lan.
Then, he threw it on the ground.
Liao Yan retreated and looked at Jiang Lan in shock.
“How is this possible? How can you be so powerful?”
He could clearly feel that the other party had twisted his arm effortlessly.
“Look behind you.” Jiang Lan spoke up.
“Do you think I’ll believe you?” Liao Yan said coldly.
He had only lost an arm. It did not mean that he needed to fear anything.
However, he was momentarily shocked.
“You have to believe it.” A cold voice sounded behind Liao Yan.
It was Jiang Lan’s voice.
Liao Yan, who was originally calm, narrowed his eyes.
When did he go behind him?
The thought flashed across his mind as Liao Yan turned around to deal with him.
It was a fatal problem to leave his back to the enemy.
Even though he knew that the other party’s speed was somewhat ridiculous, even though he knew that he might not be able to do anything, he still had to try his best to save himself.
But when he turned around, what he saw was a fist.
This fist seemed to occupy his entire world.
