The two of them hit it off immediately. Xu Xiaolan would act as An Lin's bodyguard, and the fee was a hundred thousand spirit stones.
That night, An Lin and Dabai spent the night in the Vermilion Bird Tower of the Vermilion Bird Sect.
"Shocking! A mysterious man barged into the Vermilion Bird Sect, roasted Mo Hai, and then flew off with Goddess Xiaolan! "Sure enough, this explosive piece of news swept through the entire Vermilion Bird Sect in less than half a day.
As An Lin walked out of the tower and stood in the corridor, he attracted the attention of countless sect disciples and attendants.
They all wanted to see this mysterious man clearly. Just what kind of superhuman ability did he have to be able to do such a shocking thing …
An Lin sighed softly. It looked like the daily life in this kind of super cultivation sect was really boring. Otherwise, such a small matter wouldn't have attracted so much gossip.
He raised his head and looked at the eternal Holy Vermilion Flame hanging high in the sky. He stared at it in a daze.
The Holy Vermilion Flame released a beautiful white light at night. It was holy and noble.
It was like a lighthouse, guiding the sect disciples and letting them know that this was their home.
Within a tall golden tower of the Vermilion Bird Sect, a middle-aged man with crimson hair and beard sat on a chair and ate a Dragon Fruit with great relish.
This Dragon Fruit was a third-rank spirit fruit, and there were several small fire dragons coiled around its flesh.
Every bite he took was incredibly spicy, and the pure flame energy was swallowed into the man's stomach along with the flesh of the fruit.
"Ah … this feels good!"
It had been a long time since the man had eaten a Dragon Fruit. This fruit was priceless, and each one was extremely valuable.
At this moment, a red-robed youth walked in and half-knelt on the ground. "Reporting to Elder Zhu, the matter has been investigated!"
"M-hm, tell me about it," the middle-aged man called Elder Zhu said as he ate a Dragon Fruit.
"Senior Brother Mo Hai was burned by a monkey of the Spirit Nurturing Final Stage. However, this was at his own request. The purity of the black flames released by the monkey was indeed over ninety percent. Its owner was An Lin, a classmate of Celestial Court Class One with Junior Sister Xu. Also, An Lin is riding a giant white hound pet beast and the hound has our sect's elder's token. "The red-robed young man reported the results of his investigation to Elder Zhu.
Elder Zhu nodded repeatedly as he listened to the young man's investigation results. At the end of the report, his eyebrows raised slightly. "Oh? A dog actually has an elder's token? Whose token is it? "
"Yes … there's a 'Zhu' character on the token," the young man said honestly.
"Cough, cough!" Elder Zhu choked on the dragon fruit.
Do you know what it feels like to choke on an incomparably spicy chili?
"Water! Cough … Water, quickly give me water! "Elder Zhu wailed.
…
After drinking a bucket of water and ten Cooling Pills, Elder Zhu slumped into a chair and waved his hand at the young man, indicating for him to leave.
"The white dog has my badge on it? Could he be Bai Xian's son? "
Elder Zhu was in disbelief. "My God, Bai Xian was willing to let his son become that man's beast pet?! No … that monkey that can use Divine Flames can become that man's beast pet. Could it be that there's something special about that An Lin? "
Elder Zhu felt like there was still too little information on An Lin. He had to investigate further.
For the sake of his niece, Xu Xiaolan, he had to keep a close eye on him.
However, the next day, another piece of shocking news arrived, causing Elder Zhu to jump up in fright.
Shocking! The mysterious man had escaped from the Vermilion Bird Sect with Goddess Xu!
This news was spread by a certain Lan who didn't want to be named, and it was quickly verified.
One day later.
In the air above the Heavenly River State in the southeastern region of the Kingdom of the Nine States.
A huge black brick covered in golden light streaked across the sky.
"Bang."
"Bang!"
"I've won!"
"Haha."
"Clean, I've won!"
An Lin chortled heartily as he received another pile of spirit stones.
Xu Xiaolan heaved a forlorn sigh, Xiao Chou scratched his head, and Dabai wore a dejected expression.
An Lin really lived up to his reputation as the Little Tyrant of Mahjong. They didn't believe him before, but now they were suffering.
He had won several thousand spirit stones in one day.
Aside from Xu Xiaolan, Dabai and Xiao Chou had both won big.
Xiao Hong stood beside the brick, swaying her bright red head as she photosynthesized.
"The big windmill is spinning, the scenery here is so beautiful, the sky is beautiful, the earth is beautiful, and there are happy friends …"
This was the Divine Song of Photosynthesis that An Lin had taught her. She could sing this song for an entire day!
The Abyss of Evil was located on the southeastern border of the Kingdom of the Nine States, and it was a natural barrier between the Kingdom of the Nine States and the Ant Tribe.
The Ant Tribe was a rather renowned tribe on the Tai Chu Continent. They didn't have many top-tier powerful beings, but they had an extremely high reproductive rate.
If it weren't for the fact that the Ant Tribe had always been a part of the Tai Chu Continent, they would probably have eaten up all of their land already.
The relationship between the Ant Tribe and the humans of the Kingdom of the Nine States was very bad.
If the Ant Tribe didn't have the Abyss of Evil to their north and the beast tribe to their west, they would probably be at war with the cultivators of the Kingdom of the Nine States all year round like the snow maidens.
"Look, that's the Abyss of Evil up ahead!" Xiao Hong swayed her body as she yelled in her sweet voice.
An Lin and the others looked forward to find a gigantic abyss several thousand feet wide and unfathomably deep appearing in their field of vision.
The sun was clearly blazing in the sky, but this abyss was so pitch-black that it struck fear into the hearts of all onlookers, as if it was going to engulf all light.
Soon, everyone arrived at the top of the abyss.
"Are we just going to fly down like this?"
Xu Xiaolan asked as she looked down at the abyss.
An Lin nodded. "Xiao Chou, turn on the lights!"
Xiao Chou: "…"
Clang!
An extremely dazzling light suddenly burst forth from Xiao Chou's golden eyes, shooting downward like a searchlight.
"Wow, that's awesome!" Xu Xiaolan exclaimed in surprise.
Thus, the black brick slowly descended.
Everyone began to raise their guard and enter a state of combat readiness.
Aside from the small number of sinister devils in the Abyss of Evil, there were also many ferocious and sinister mutant beasts lurking in the darkness, ready to strike at any moment.
As they descended deeper and deeper into the abyss, the light became dimmer and dimmer.
Looking up, they could see that there was a white band in the sky that was becoming narrower and narrower.
Xiao Hong hid in An Lin's pocket again and observed from the shadows.
"We haven't reached the bottom yet? I think we've already descended for over a kilometer." Xu Xiaolan was quite afraid of the dark, and she spoke with unease.
Xiao Chou shook his head. "No, my searchlight still can't reach the bottom. There's at least another kilometer."
"Little Brother, you've finally admitted that your eyes are searchlights, woof!" Da Bai was elated as he made his presence known.
Xiao Chou: "…"
Thus, everyone descended for another kilometer.
At this moment, the air around them became cold and damp, and the light was so dim that it was almost negligible.
Xiao Chou's searchlight still couldn't reach the bottom.
They were now two kilometers below the surface.
Three kilometers.
Five kilometers.
Eight kilometers.
…
The air became extremely thin.
If it weren't for the fact that An Lin and the others were cultivators, they would have most likely suffocated to death already.
They looked up to see that the sky had become a white line.
Due to the protrusion of the rocks, as well as the irregular rock formations in the abyss, the white line was already faintly discernible.
Everything around them was pitch-black and deathly silent.
Occasionally, there would be the sound of water dripping, followed by the sound of everyone's slow breathing.
"We're here, I can already see the bottom!" Xiao Chou suddenly spoke.
Everyone couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
After descending for over ten kilometers, they finally landed!
