With the Rain Sovereign's token, Ning Fan's figure disappeared from the second floor and returned to the thirteenth swamp on the first floor.
Summoning Yu Chong 'er, he removed the Yin Plucking Finger's power and pulled her into his embrace, quietly waiting for her to wake up.
With a soft moan, Yu Chong 'er slowly woke up. The first thing she saw was Ning Fan's detestable face.
Before she was fully awake, she subconsciously bit Ning Fan's shoulder and mumbled something in her sleep.
"Zhou Ming, you bully me … You knocked me out … You're shameless …"
After scolding him, the little girl closed her eyes and leaned on Ning Fan's shoulder to fall asleep. She even stretched out her arms and wrapped them around Ning Fan's neck as if she was hugging a pillow.
Ning Fan instantly felt speechless. This little girl seems to hate me. Moreover, she seems to hate me so much that she can't forget about me.
What did she treat Ning Fan as? A bed? A pillow? You can sleep with me and bite me as you please?
"Yu Chong 'er, I'll give you three breaths. Wake up quickly." Ning Fan said indifferently.
"So noisy, can't you let me sleep …"
Yu Chong 'er rubbed her eyes and gradually regained consciousness.
When Yu Chong 'er saw that she was actually curling up in Ning Fan's embrace in an extremely ambiguous manner and had even wrapped her arms around his neck, her face immediately turned as red as blood.
"Zhou Ming, you're shameless! You knocked me out and took advantage of me! "
"I took advantage of you?" Ning Fan was so angry that he laughed. This little girl must have a bad memory.
She was the one who forcefully kissed him. She was the one who used him as a pillow and refused to get up.
Did Ning Fan take advantage of a copper coin from her?
"Who knows if you did something to me while I was asleep …"
Yu Chong 'er retorted. Then, she struggled out of Ning Fan's embrace and hid at the side as if she was fleeing.
After carefully inspecting his clothes and confirming that there were no signs of him taking them off, he used his divine sense to check his body. Only after confirming that his Primordial Yin was still present did he heave a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, there were no signs of Ning Fan sleeping with her … At least Ning Fan still has some humanity left.
Ning Fan saw all of her expressions, leaving him speechless.
If Ning Fan wants to pluck a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator, does he need to knock them unconscious?
"You're awake?"
"En …"
"Alright then, let's go."
"Where to?"
"Find your brother. You've been unconscious for nine days. Today is the day you leave."
"No, no, I don't dare to go!"
After hearing Ning Fan's words, Yu Chong 'er immediately felt a lingering fear.
She didn't dare to look for her brother. Her impulsiveness had caused Yu Bai and the others to be in danger. She didn't dare to imagine how much her brother would hate her.
"What are you afraid of? You went to the Forest of King Beasts to steal medicinal herbs and escaped from the mouths of Void Refinement Realm ferocious beasts. Why? So you, Yu Chong 'er, are so timid? Don't you dare to go back and accept the punishment for your mistakes? "Ning Fan stared at Yu Chong 'er deeply and tried to provoke her.
"No! I'm not afraid of being punished. I'm just afraid … afraid that Big Brother will hate me … "Yu Chong 'er pursed her lips as her face turned slightly pale. She was not afraid of death or punishment. She was only afraid that her big brother would hate her for the rest of his life.
"You even dared to bite me. Are you afraid that your brother will hate you?"
"Bah, I didn't bite you!"
"So my shoulder was bitten by a dog?"
"You are shameless!"
Yu Chong 'er retorted. She did not notice that her initial fear had faded a lot after hearing Ning Fan's words.
When she thought about it carefully, she realized that she had made a mistake after all. Fortunately, Ning Fan had saved her big brother and the others. At least, she still had a chance to make up for her mistake.
She rolled her eyes at Ning Fan. Then, she patted her storage pouch and took out a jade pendant. She seemed to be able to determine the direction of Yu Bai and the others with the help of the pendant.
"Zhou Ming, you're right. I shouldn't be afraid. Even if Big Brother hates me, I still have to go back and apologize to him. Thank you for saving me and protecting me along the way. You should leave the Blood Dragon Pool first. I want to meet up with Big Brother. "
Yu Chong 'er raised her head. Her fine black hair fluttered in the air and shone brightly.
Ning Fan nodded his head. This lady is not a bad person since she is brave enough to admit her mistakes.
His previous words were just to test this woman's character.
He grabbed Yu Chong 'er's wrist and pulled her into his arms. He did not give her the chance to leave alone.
Ning Fan moved his body and dashed towards a certain direction in the thirteenth swamp.
Yu Chong 'er was stunned. At the next moment, she realized that Ning Fan had taken advantage of her again.
"Let go of me! Where are you bringing me?! " She resisted with a low voice. However, her struggle was not intense. After all, she had stayed in his arms for more than ten days. She had long gotten used to it.
"I'll send you back. With my face, no one will blame you too much. "
Ning Fan did not say anything else. He moved like a wisp of smoke and flew across the thirteenth swamp.
To the blood demons in the thirteenth swamp, his qi was a nightmare. Any beast that smelled his qi would prostrate on the ground and shiver in fear.
Yu Chong 'er felt a lump in her throat. Judging from Ning Fan's words, he was obviously trying to pressure the other revered elders so that they would no longer pursue Yu Chong' er's wrongdoings.
Yu Chong 'er's heart felt warm and her heart skipped a beat.
Other than her mother, her elder brother and her master, Ning Fan was the first person who treated her well.
"Thank you …" Her voice was very soft. Perhaps Ning Fan did not hear it.
…
With Ning Fan's speed, he arrived at the place where Yu Bai and the others were recuperating in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Yu Bai and the others had yet to leave. All of this was naturally because Ning Fan had not returned from searching for his younger sister on his behalf.
In the thirteenth swamp, most of the Wild Beasts were already dead. The twelve revered elders were in seclusion at the same time. Thus, there was basically no danger.
In the temporary abode, the twelve of them were busy recuperating. No one was talking to each other.
When they sensed the presence of two Divine Transformation Realm qi outside the abode, the expressions of all the revered elders changed. They looked like birds that were startled by the mere twang of a bowstring.
If the Wild Beasts were to attack them, even though they were not afraid, they would inevitably have a tough battle.
Fortunately, they soon realized that the two qi were very familiar. One of them was Yu Chong 'er while the other was Ning Fan.
"Revered Ming is back!"
The revered elder in hemp robes suddenly stood up with a fiery gaze.
The group of them walked out of the abode. When they saw Ning Fan smiling as usual and completely unscathed, the respect in the eyes of the revered elder in hemp robes became even stronger.
He had seen Ning Fan enter the second floor with his own eyes. One should know that the second floor was a dangerous place where Void Refinement Realm beasts ran amok.
He did not expect that not only was Ning Fan unscathed after entering the second floor, he even saved Yu Chong 'er.
This kind of strength was really admirable.
However, when their gazes fell upon Yu Chong 'er, the expressions of all the revered elders became a little unnatural.
It was all because of Yu Chong 'er that they were trapped in a dangerous place that day. Thus, they naturally hated Yu Chong' er to the core.
After that day, Ning Fan eliminated all the beasts and went to the second floor alone. As for Yu Bai and the others, they returned to the Forest of Beast King and collected a lot of spiritual herbs.
In that place, Yu Bai and the others found traces of Blood Dragon Moss but they realized that it had already been plucked by someone.
Immediately, Yu Bai understood the reason behind it.
The reason why Yu Chong 'er recklessly went to the Forest of Beast King to steal the spiritual herbs was actually because of the Blood Dragon Moss.
This Blood Dragon Moss was her only hope to save her mother. If Yu Bai was in her shoes and found out that there were Blood Dragon Moss in this forest, he would also come to steal the spiritual herbs at all costs.
He told the other revered elders about Yu Chong 'er's motive. All of them fell silent.
As the saying goes, filial piety is the most important of all virtues. Yu Chong 'er was eager to save her mother but she did not mean to get herself into trouble. Besides, none of them died.
As such, their original hatred towards her faded away. However, there was still a sense of blame.
If Yu Chong 'er had discussed the matter of stealing the spiritual herbs with everyone and they would have acted together, she certainly would not have caused so much trouble.
At the end of the day, Yu Chong 'er was still in the wrong. However, her mistake could still be forgiven.
"Greetings to Revered Ming!"
The twelve revered elders straightened their backs and cupped their fists towards Ning Fan. Their eyes were filled with respect from the bottom of their hearts.
If it wasn't for Ning Fan, they would have already died in the mouth of the king beast. This was a kindness that they could not easily forget.
"En. Brother Yu, I've already saved your sister, you don't have to worry anymore. "
Ning Fan loosened his embrace, allowing the siblings to reunite.
Yu Bai's eyes were filled with joy, but when he remembered that Yu Chong 'er had made a mistake, his face immediately turned cold.
Yu Chong 'er averted her gaze. However, when she recalled how she had solemnly vowed in front of Ning Fan that she would return and admit her mistake, she no longer cowered. She raised her head and bowed apologetically to the twelve Venerated Elders.
"I've implicated all of you in danger. I deserve to die ten thousand times for my crime. Fellow Daoists, if you have any punishment, feel free to state it clearly."
"Humph!" One of the Revered Elders snorted coldly. It was clear that he was still rather resentful towards Yu Chong 'er.
However, just as he let out a snort, he was shocked to see Ning Fan taking a step forward and pulling Yu Chong 'er into his arms.
"Give me some face!"
He didn't explain too much, just a short sentence.
However, all of the revered elders on the scene were smart people. When they saw the intimate action between Ning Fan and Yu Chong 'er and heard his words, how could they not understand what he meant?
Ning Fan was pleading for Yu Chong 'er.
The twelve Revered Elders of the Serene Heaven Palace had to give him face!
Even if everyone did not know that the reason why Yu Chong 'er made the mistake was to save her mother, they still had to forgive her for Ning Fan's sake.
"This matter is written off!"
The linen-robed old man was the first to speak, and soon after, the revered elders of the Serene Heaven Palace followed suit.
Even the Revered Elder, who had snorted discontentedly, put away all his discontented emotions and sighed with mixed feelings.
It seems like Yu Chong 'er is Ning Fan's woman …
He couldn't touch this woman. He couldn't provoke her.
Yu Bai was stunned. Ning Fan had helped Yu Chong 'er out of her predicament with just a sentence. He was very grateful for that. However, he never knew that Ning Fan and Yu Chong' er had such a close relationship.
Yu Chong 'er's heart trembled. Once again, she was protected by Ning Fan.
She had committed a grave mistake. Even if she could avoid the death penalty, she would not be able to escape punishment.
However, all the guilt was erased by Ning Fan's words.
Give me face!
What a domineering man. Who would dare to not give him face?
Perhaps because her mind was in a mess, Yu Chong 'er who had always rejected Ning Fan did not resist his hug this time.
None of the Revered Elders mentioned anything about Yu Chong 'er's mistake.
After chatting with Ning Fan for a while, they continued to chat happily and left the Blood Dragon Pool together.
Yu Chong 'er curled up in Ning Fan's arms. Looking at Ning Fan's harmless smile, she could not help but feel a little speechless.
Today, she had finally witnessed what it meant to eat both the righteous and the evil.
He was obviously a devil cultivator who killed without batting an eyelid, but he could still have a pleasant conversation with a group of cultivators from the righteous path. Moreover, he could even make a group of old devils from the righteous path admire him.
This was simply too unreasonable.
"Humph …" She curled up in Ning Fan's arms and let out a soft snort in dissatisfaction.
Then, her ears turned hot and her face turned red.
It was because Ning Fan blew a breath of hot air into her ear mischievously and said in a low voice.
"Yu Chong 'er, you owe me one again."
"I will definitely pay you back …" Yu Chong 'er was a little lacking in confidence.
She had already given Ning Fan her Insect Sovereign Blood and the Heaven Deceiving Cloak. It seemed like she did not have any good things to give him anymore.
Could it be that I can only repay him with my body?
She felt a slight headache.
Luckily, Ning Fan did not ask her how she was going to pay him back this time. It made her feel slightly relieved.
However, when she thought that she would probably be separated from Ning Fan when she returned to the Blood Dragon Pool, she felt a little disappointed.
* Pa *
Yu Chong 'er's soft buttocks were pinched by a large hand that was separated by the silver armor.
All of a sudden, Yu Chong 'er's delicate body tensed up. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anger and embarrassment. The one who pinched her buttocks was obviously Ning Fan!
"You're shameless!"
Humph … Yu Chong 'er was sulking. Her buttocks were touched. It would be strange if she could remain calm.
She actually felt sad about parting because of such a shameless and lecherous person. She was really too stupid.
When Ning Fan saw Yu Chong 'er revert to the disgusted expression she had when they first met, he smiled and said nothing.
That's good.
…
To Void Fragmentation Realm old monsters, one month's time was nothing more than a single session of meditation.
Yun Tianjue and Chu Chang 'an were both meditating. The difference was that the former was sleeping peacefully while the latter looked a little dejected.
I've lost … Chu Chang 'an knew that he was most likely going to lose the bet he had with Yun Tianjue.
Twenty-one beast kings and three Void Refinement Realm blood demons had died … If all of these were done by Ning Fan, then the amount of dragon blood he had obtained would probably be more than 50 pots.
Collecting 50 pots of dragon blood in a month was an absurd task even for Half-Step Void Refinement Realm cultivators.
However, Ning Fan seemed to have done it.
He was holding a golden lamp in his hand. Inside the golden lamp, there was a bright yellow flame. It was the Sixth Grade Void Flame – the Serene Palace Buddha Fire.
This flame was the guardian flame of the Serene Heaven Palace. Even when Revered Yan came to ask for it, Chu Chang 'an did not hand it over.
Could it be that it would have a new owner today …?
"No. Perhaps I won't lose the bet. Even though that Zhou Ming has killed a lot of people, he might not have killed all 500 Divine Transformation Realm blood demons … Perhaps he only killed the beast kings of the first floor and did not kill the other blood demons …"
Chu Chang 'an comforted himself even though he also understood that he was just deceiving himself.
One month had passed. Rays of travelling light broke through the surface of the water.
There were fourteen rays of travelling light. All of them were the revered elders of the Serene Heaven Palace. Of course, there was also Ning Fan.
Seeing that even though the Divine Transformation Realm cultivators of his palace were injured, their lives were not in danger, Chu Chang 'an heaved a sigh of relief.
The death rate in the Blood Dragon Pool was still very high. Even though he had purposely teleported all the Divine Transformation Realm cultivators of his palace to the same place, it was inevitable that one or two of them would die.
It would be best if no one died.
As for how much dragon blood these people could obtain, it was secondary. Having a life-and-death experience would greatly benefit everyone's cultivation.
Chu Chang 'an was only concerned about how much dragon blood a person had collected.
His eyes fell on Ning Fan with hesitation and inquisitiveness.
"Little Friend, how was your harvest? It should be difficult to collect 50 pots of dragon blood, right …? "
"It's indeed difficult." Ning Fan nodded and let go of Yu Chong 'er who was so embarrassed that she wanted to die, ignoring the latter's murderous expression.
"Oh? Could it be that Little Friend hasn't collected 50 pots of dragon blood? "
As soon as Chu Chang 'an heard Ning Fan saying that it was difficult, he was overjoyed. Judging from Ning Fan's tone, he probably did not collect enough dragon blood.
However, just as his smile rose, he saw Ning Fan patting his storage pouch. Pots of dragon blood immediately appeared on the ground. There were actually more than one hundred pots.
"117 pots of dragon blood! You collected all of these within a month?! "Chu Chang 'an found it hard to believe.
"Fortunately, I didn't fail you!"
Ning Fan nodded and cupped his fists at Yun Tianjue.
Yun Tianjue who had been meditating with his eyes closed for a month finally opened his eyes. His cold eyes carried a hint of approval.
"You've done well. Elder Chu, you've lost. "
He stood up and carried the giant sword on his back again.
Yun Tianjue's gaze swept across Chu Chang 'an. Of course, Chu Chang' an knew what he meant.
Chu Chang 'an gritted his teeth. His face was filled with pain. He took out a golden lamp. A bright yellow flame was flickering in the lamp.
With a flick of his finger, the flame flew out of the golden lamp and drifted towards Yun Tianjue.
After losing the Serene Palace Buddha Flame, the golden lamp was immediately extinguished.
Yun Tianjue flicked his sleeve and a suction force came into his palm. Without even looking at it, he directly threw it to Ning Fan. Together with the flame, there was also a golden token.
"You've passed the test. This is your reward."
"Reward?"
Ning Fan's eyes widened. He caught the golden token and the flame.
That golden token was naturally the Revered Elder Golden Token that Yun Tianjue promised him. With this token, Ning Fan could freely enter the eight hundred cultivation countries of the Rain World. It was his reward for passing the test. It was not surprising at all.
However, the Serene Palace Buddha Flame was not what Yun Tianjue promised him.
When Yun Tianjue used his beloved sword to bet Chu Chang 'an's Void Flame, Ning Fan already had some doubts.
Yun Tianjue's divine ability only had the word 'sword'. What was the use of the flame? Using his beloved sword to bet on a useless flame was unreasonable.
At this moment, Ning Fan finally understood that Yun Tianjue had probably decided to win the flame and give it to Ning Fan at the beginning of the bet.
"Why?" Ning Fan frowned. He did not like to receive favors from others or owe them favors. After receiving so many benefits from Yun Tianjue for no reason, it was inevitable for him to have doubts.
"If you don't want it, just throw it away."
Yun Tianjue's eyes turned cold. Why would he care whether you want something that he gave you?
As a matter of fact, even he himself did not understand why someone as cold as him would have a good impression of Ning Fan and give him a chance.
Perhaps it was because Ning Fan's confident smile was very similar to someone … That smile could move Yun Tianjue's cold heart.
Who is it? Who is it …?
Yun Tianjue clenched his fists. One day, he would get his memories back.
He abandoned his emotions to cultivate the sword. His memories were erased by the Heavenly Dao Samsara. This was the price he had to pay for turning into a devil with a sword.
He wanted to get his memories back. In the Rain World, there was only one secret technique that could retrieve the memories that were erased by the Heavenly Dao.
It was the White Lightning Memory Extinguishing Technique of Thunder Sovereign Bu Zhou!
He had used the Immortal Trapping Sword and even seized many famous swords from the eight hundred cultivation countries just to head to the Sovereign Tomb to fight against the Thunder Sovereign and seize the White Lightning Technique!
"I'll give you one day to settle the karma of this place. One day later, you will return to the Endless Sea! "
Yun Tianjue did not want to say anything else. He turned around and was about to leave.
At the moment he turned around, two rays of dazzling golden sound transmitting flying swords pierced through the air and flew towards him.
The sound transmitting flying swords had a trace of golden qi in the shape of a dragon. It allowed the flying swords to travel a terrifying distance.
It was impossible for Ning Fan not to recognize that golden qi.
That was … the sovereign qi!
"Sovereign Sound Flying Swords! Could it be that the Rain Sovereign has sent me an order? "
Chu Chang 'an's expression changed. He thought to himself, What happened in the Middle State that made the Rain Sovereign personally send a message to a Void Fragmentation Realm expert?
Yun Tianjue's eyes also flickered slightly. He received the flying swords without saying a word.
All the content of the message was directly transmitted into the Sea of Consciousness of the two Void Fragmentation Realm experts.
As soon as he heard the content of the message, Chu Chang 'an's expression changed greatly. Even Yun Tianjue's expression changed.
"Sovereign qi! Someone has condensed the sovereign qi! "
The Rain World had a new Divine Sovereign!
Someone had used the Divine Sovereign Cultivation Technique – Sovereign Rain Primordial Art to condense a trace of sovereign qi!
This matter was of great importance. The Rain Sovereign ordered Yun Tianjue and Chu Chang 'an to return to the Rain Palace as soon as possible to investigate this matter.
Elder Chu's words made the group of revered elders look at each other in confusion.
Only Ning Fan vaguely understood that the matter that shocked the Rain Sovereign, Elder Chu and Yun Tianjue was related to him condensing the sovereign qi.
Moreover, judging from the serious expression of the two Void Fragmentation Realm experts, it seemed like it was not a good thing for the Rain Palace.
Did I threaten the throne of the Rain Sovereign …?
If that's the case, once Ning Fan reveals the sovereign qi, he would probably face a great calamity that would shock the world.
"I must never reveal the sovereign qi!"
Ning Fan made up his mind. Even if the sovereign qi had the power to suppress Void Refinement Realm experts, he must not use it recklessly. Unless he had the power to protect himself that the Rain Sovereign was afraid of.
Otherwise, a disaster would certainly befall him!
It seemed like the Rain World would not be peaceful anymore.
