Lan Xiaoni's understanding of the Four Nine Immortal Sect was limited to the descriptions on the news.
"I heard that there's a Sword Pavilion in the Four Nine Immortal Sect. Could she be the pavilion lord of the Sword Pavilion, Liu Qianhuan?" Lan Xiaoni cocked her head to the side as she murmured to herself.
She was using a special tool to conceal herself, so no one would be able to detect her presence.
It was exactly because of this that she snuck a little closer.
"No, Liu Qianhuan is said to be quite a lively woman, and her clothes are a little weird too. Why would she wear such formal clothes?" Lan Xiaoni finally eliminated one of the possibilities.
"She must be one of the four beauties of the Four Nine Immortal Sect. Liu Qianhuan has been eliminated, so she can only be Bai Ling from the Purple Star Pavilion, Xu Xiaolan from the Flame Pavilion, or Su Qianyun from the Moon Pavilion … "Lan Xiaoni's gossipy heart was burning with excitement, and she began to eliminate the possibilities.
"I heard that Bai Ling is a big sister in a flowing white dress. I heard that Su Qianyun doesn't use swords, so she's most likely …" The mermaid princess' heart rate began to accelerate, and a peculiar look appeared in her eyes as she stared at the woman in the jade dress.
At this moment, a crisp voice suddenly sounded from beside her.
"Big Sister, why are you hiding behind the tree?"
"Ah!"
Lan Xiaoni was just focusing her attention on the woman when a voice suddenly sounded beside her, giving her a massive fright.
When he took a closer look, he discovered that there was a pretty little girl standing beside him.
The little girl was extremely adorable, but she was also given a fright by Lan Xiaoni's scream, and her features paled slightly as she stumbled back a few steps.
"How … how did you see me here?" Lan Xiaoni was still in a state of shock.
"How did I see you here?" The little girl cocked her head to the side. "I saw you with my eyes."
Lan Xiaoni: "…"
Lan Xiaoni was at a loss for words as she looked into the little girl's clear eyes.
Right at this moment, an extremely powerful sense of peril suddenly erupted from behind her.
The immortal sword tore through the air before hurtling toward her like a bolt of lightning!
Lan Xiaoni's expression shifted drastically, and she immediately summoned her white ball as a shield.
The green figure instantly appeared before her before grabbing the little girl with one hand and stabbing the white ball with the other.
Rumble!
The Thunder and Fire Dual Blades collided with the white ball, resulting in a deafening explosion. The impact of the energy even caused the ground, which had been reinforced by the array formation, to crack.
Lan Xiaoni felt an overwhelming power sweep toward her, and her body was sent flying backward.
"Who the hell are you? How dare you trespass into the sect's forbidden area?!" The green-robed woman shouted.
This woman was none other than Xu Xiaolan of the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
Guests were prohibited from entering the Four Nine Immortal Sect's dao plaza, and a black-robed man who was concealing his aura was extremely suspicious. She naturally wasn't going to stand by and do nothing.
Lan Xiaoni panicked after being forced back by Xu Xiaolan's sword strike, and she immediately turned to flee into the distance.
"Don't even think about getting away!" Xu Xiaolan spread her Holy Flame Wings and chased after them.
The two of them exchanged a few blows in mid-air, and Lan Xiaoni was on the back foot this entire time, unable to escape.
A pillar of flames descended from the sky and struck the flying black-robed woman, causing her to fall to the ground.
Their battle alerted the Four Nine Immortal Sect cultivators.
An Lin was the first to arrive at the scene.
He was completely dumbstruck by the sight of Xu Xiaolan pressing her Dragon Sparrow Sword against Lan Xiaoni's neck.
"What's going on here?"
The main empress has captured her underling? What kind of explosive news is this?!
"An Lin, come here! I've captured an enemy spy!" Xu Xiaolan made a logical deduction, but her Dragon Sparrow Sword was still pressed against Lan Xiaoni's snowy-white neck, as if she was going to end this woman's life at any moment.
Lan Xiaoni had already given up on resisting, and she turned to An Lin with a pitiable expression on her face.
There was a look of guilt and indignation on her face for having been exposed in advance.
An Lin's head was about to explode upon seeing this!
"Spare her, Xiaolan!"
An Lin finally extended Er Kang's hand and yelled.
Xu Xiaolan turned to look at An Lin with furrowed brows. "You know her?"
Lan Xiaoni's mouth gaped open, and she was just about to yell out "Big Boss An", but she swallowed the words in the end. She didn't know if doing so would create more trouble for An Lin, so she decided to let An Lin handle the situation for safety reasons.
However, what else could An Lin do? He could only muster up his courage. "Xiaolan, put down your sword first. This is all a misunderstanding! This is the woman I mentioned to you before, Lan Xiaoni of the Spirit Fish Clan of the West Sea. "
Xu Xiaolan murmured, "She's Lan Xiaoni?"
She turned to look at the black-robed woman on the ground. She had exquisite features, bright blue eyes, and was trying her best to maintain her composure, but in reality, it was very easy to see that she was scared and timid …
She was indeed a top-notch beauty.
Lan Xiaoni could sense an extremely powerful aura emanating from Xu Xiaolan's body, and a sharp light flashed through her eyes. Her body shuddered involuntarily, and she lowered her head like a little child who had done something wrong.
At this moment, Dabai, Xuanyuan Cheng, Su Qianyun, and the other Four Nine Immortal Sect members also rushed over upon hearing the commotion.
Xu Xiaolan withdrew her longsword and extended a hand with a smile on her face. "So it was all a misunderstanding. Ms. Lan Xiaoni, I've wanted to meet you for a long time. I really want to thank you for everything you've done for my An Lin."
Lan Xiaoni nodded blankly before grabbing onto Xiaolan's hand and standing up.
"Hello … You're Ms. Xu Xiaolan, right? I've heard a lot about you. "Lan Xiaoni extended a friendly greeting.
Dabai, Xuanyuan Cheng, and the others were greeted by the sight of Xu Xiaolan and Lan Xiaoni happily shaking hands and chatting with one another.
Seeing as the other members of the Four Nine Immortal Sect had arrived, An Lin gave them a recount of what had happened. "And so on and so on, and so on …"
Everyone was already aware of Lan Xiaoni, and they didn't have any vendettas with her, so they quickly accepted her and introduced her to one another.
Lan Xiaoni was a little overwhelmed by everyone's warm welcome.
Due to the fact that she had been kidnapped, she had already mentally prepared herself to be treated coldly and even insulted. However, she didn't think that the treatment she would receive would be so different from what she had imagined.
With this in mind, tears welled up in the mermaid princess' eyes, and she was moved to the point where she burst into tears again.
Xu Xiaolan didn't know whether to laugh or cry upon seeing this. She made her way over to An Lin and gestured to the sobbing Lan Xiaoni with her chin. "Has she always been like this? Does she cry at the drop of a hat?"
An Lin nodded with emotion. "That's right. She's very timid, and she doesn't cry much."
"Even so, she still had the courage to risk her life to save you," Xu Xiaolan said.
An Lin was just about to reply when his heart suddenly jolted.
This … was a trap!
