Why did the cowardly Lan Xiaoni have the courage to save him?
If the answer was love, then either An Lin or Lan Xiaoni would be dead.
Of course, An Lin didn't think it was love. Instead, it was a scorching emotion of dependence and loyalty.
Of course, he couldn't say that as there were still risks involved.
An Lin replied with a nonchalant expression, "I saved her life in the tomb, and she's a person who will always repay those who have helped her. Hence, she didn't even think twice before risking her life to save me!"
That was the perfect answer!
Not only did it explain Lan Xiaoni's motives, but it also created a good image of her as someone who would always repay favors.
If it weren't for Lan Xiaoni's words, he would have thought that this was the truth.
An Lin really couldn't accept this kindness, so he could only come up with this excuse to explain himself.
As the big boss, protecting her underling and giving her a pillar of support was perhaps the only thing An Lin could do for Lan Xiaoni.
Xu Xiaolan felt that this was reasonable, so she merely gave him a few chestnuts in anger and warned him to stop fooling around outside. Then, this matter was over.
Lan Xiaoni quickly became acquainted with most of the members of the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
An Lin decided that since Lan Xiaoni had already appeared, he might as well get her to meet Bai Yao and Xiao Chou in advance to resolve this issue.
Thus, they got to work.
An Lin led Lan Xiaoni to where Xiao Chou and Bai Yao were.
The newlyweds were given a massive fright upon seeing Lan Xiaoni. They almost thought that she was here to kidnap them again!
Lan Xiaoni then brought out a bunch of treasures from the Spirit Fish Clan from her storage ring.
The situation had completely reversed.
The scene instantly became harmonious, and it was a scene of joy and harmony.
Lan Xiaoni apologized sincerely, but Xiao Chou and Bai Yao didn't mind.
Thus, the two of them buried the hatchet.
Lan Xiaoni walked out of the wedding palace with a carefree smile on her face.
"Big Boss An Lin, the people of the Four Nine Immortal Sect are all very nice. I really like this place!" These were Lan Xiaoni's true thoughts. She had received kindness that she had never even dared to imagine.
All of this had changed her view of the cruel cultivation world.
At least there was one place where people yearned for warmth.
"You can come here often if you like. This is your second home." An Lin smiled.
"Yes!" Lan Xiaoni was elated as she led the way.
She was still wearing a black robe. This was a celestial artifact given to her by her father. Other than those she allowed, no one would be able to detect her presence.
Oh, right, how did Ye Ling discover her?
Lan Xiaoni was at a loss for a moment before muttering to herself, "Could it be that I'm having my period because of these clothes?"
She was a thick-skinned girl, so she suppressed her doubts.
The wedding was about to take place.
Tens of thousands of representatives from all over the world gathered together, looking forward to the sacred and solemn moment.
Many people that An Lin was familiar with came again.
Among them were the representatives of the Vermilion Bird Sect, Zhu Xuze, Yang Yuan, Lan Yan, and Mo Hai.
"Hi! My Sect Leader An Lin, come here quickly! "
Lan Yan, who was dressed in purple, waved at An Lin excitedly.
When An Lin saw this, he walked over.
A vibrant smile appeared on Lan Yan's face. "I want to interview you. What are your thoughts on Xiao Chou's wedding? Will the wedding date between you and Classmate Xiaolan be affected and be shortened as a result? "
An Lin snapped, "I don't have any thoughts! As for the wedding date, why don't you help me out as his best girlfriend? "
"What kind of man are you if you can't even handle your own dao partner?"
Lan Yan stuck out her tongue and couldn't be bothered to help him out.
The light in Lan Xiaoni's eyes dimmed slightly upon hearing this.
An Lin wasn't expecting Lan Yan to help him out, so he continued to ramble on and ask about the Vermilion Bird Sect.
Come to think of it, he was an honorary elder of the Vermilion Bird Sect, so he naturally had to pay attention to the Vermilion Bird Sect from time to time!
Not long after that, An Lin turned toward another man. "Mr. Yang Yuan, I have something else that I want to talk to you about in private."
"What is it? Please go ahead, Mr. An Lin. "
Yang Yuan followed An Lin to a secluded corner with a curious expression.
An Lin pointed to the ring on Yang Yuan's finger. "Has your ring been able to trigger the power within it?"
Yang Yuan had obtained four rings from an ancient underground palace in the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds, each of which had the words "East, South, West, West" engraved on them. The wearer of the rings had a certain probability of summoning the power of a Man Tribe heroic spirit.
In order to repay him for saving his life, Yang Yuan only left the "West" ring with the word "West" engraved on it.
The other three rings were all given away. An Lin received the "East" ring, Mo Hai received the "South" ring, and Shangguan Yi received the "North" ring.
An Lin had initially thought that this ring only contained the will of a powerful Dragon Tribe being, but who would have thought that the black dragon within the ring would be far more powerful than he had imagined …
Just a projection of its power was able to cripple a Return to Void Final Stage mighty figure with a single blow and swallow a divine tool that had manifested into a massive sea dragon. Just how powerful did the black dragon have to be to be able to do this?
This ring was definitely not as simple as it seemed!
However, An Lin was a little disappointed by Yang Yuan's reply.
"Ever since I progressed to the Return to Void Stage, I've been consolidating my cultivation base and have never triggered the power within my ring. Why would you bring this up, Mr. An Lin?"
An Lin had no choice but to describe the peculiar state of his storage ring to Yang Yuan.
Yang Yuan's mouth gaped open upon hearing this!
"Are the rings I obtained really that bad * ss?" Yang Yuan was astonished.
An Lin was also astonished. "So you really don't know?"
Yang Yuan: "…"
An Lin: "…"
Everyone fell silent.
Both of them fell silent.
After a long while, Yang Yuan finally broke the silence. "Mr. An Lin, I obtained these four rings from the underground palace in the southern region of the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds. You might not believe me when I tell you this, but the monsters guarding these four rings were at most Soul Formation Stage …"
An Lin: "…"
Yang Yuan continued, "The ancient palace I entered was in an extremely dilapidated state, and the ground was littered with the carcasses of ancient beasts that exuded astonishing energy fluctuations. These ancient beasts must have been extremely terrifying beings when they were alive, and it was exactly because of this that I was able to deduce that the rings I obtained were extraordinary.
"The rings were floating silently in a place called the Holy Temple of the Man Tribe.
"I took them with me, and everything went smoothly without any resistance … That's the whole story."
Yang Yuan looked at the rings in his hand with a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Mr. An Lin, you said that the living beings in the storage rings would absorb your power without any reservation when they attack. What if the owner of the rings didn't have enough power? Would they be sucked dry and die on the spot? "
This was a very serious question.
An Lin was unable to answer Yang Yuan's question …
At the time, he felt like if his divine body wasn't powerful enough, he really would have been sucked dry!
"The Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds is where the Holy Beast Vermilion Bird is imprisoned. Could the four holy beasts in the Holy Temple of the Man Tribe be the legendary Holy Beasts?!" An Lin speculated.
Yang Yuan was given a fright upon hearing this.
"How is that possible? You're saying that these four rings were left behind by the legendary Holy Beasts? "
"Is there any other explanation?" An Lin splayed his hands open.
Yang Yuan was still a little confused. "If that's the case, then the Holy Beast Azure Dragon should be in the eastern ring, so why did a black dragon jump out?"
An Lin: "… Did the Azure Dragon get tanned?"
Yang Yuan: "… Do you even believe what you just said?"
Just like that, they reached another dead end.
Thus, their discussion came to an end.
An Lin's only discovery was that his rings might have something to do with the four Holy Beasts.
Of course, this was only a guess. He could only hope that one day in the future, the Black Dragon Boss would appear again and answer his questions personally …
