Perfected Lord Tianlan did not hide his tracks when he left. It seemed as if nothing had happened as he walked calmly as if nothing had happened. Of course, he was carrying the pale and haggard looking Lu Chen on his back. After he walked out of the door and took five or six steps forward, a sudden roar came from behind him.
It sounded like a cry of despair, or a sigh of frustration. Then, there was a cracking sound. Dozens of cracks appeared on the brick walls of the house and spread rapidly. Then, with a loud roar, the whole house collapsed.
Dust and gravel flew into the air. It was a rather spectacular sight. However, Perfected Lord Tianlan did not even turn back to look. He just walked calmly and slowly.
Such a huge commotion naturally alerted the surroundings. Moreover, this was Fuyunji's territory. As the most vigilant and powerful hall in Zhenxianmeng, the people here moved the fastest.
Not long after, many people rushed out of the surrounding houses. Some of them looked vigilant, some of them were disheveled. It was unknown what they were doing in the houses. Further away, more people were rushing over from all directions.
The expressions of the people who were the fastest to arrive were the first to change, looking extremely shocked. They immediately stopped and stood to the side. Some of the more impatient ones who arrived later shouted angrily, "Who is so bold, how dare you …"
When he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he choked on his words as if he had eaten a raw duck egg. He looked shocked and took a few steps back, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
More and more people appeared in the surroundings and then quietly stood to the side to watch. At the same time, a strange emotion also spread in the crowd. None of the people here were fools. They only believed what they saw with their own eyes.
Lu Chen, Young Master Lu, was injured for some unknown reason. However, Perfected Lord Tianlan did not care about bloodshed and personally carried this disciple. They were like father and son. The rumors that had been secretly spreading in the past disappeared at this moment. Their relationship seemed to be unbreakable and indestructible.
If there was a need to choose a side, there was no longer any need to think about it. Everyone consciously kept a distance from Perfected Lord Tianlan and Lu Chen and looked at the master and disciple with complicated feelings. At the same time, many people secretly looked in another direction.
…
Perfected Lord Tianlan walked forward. His body was tall and sturdy, but his steps were unusually steady. At the same time, Lu Chen suddenly heard his deep and sonorous voice. "I've destroyed that black sword. Now that I think about it, it's a pity."
Lu Chen raised his head slightly and glanced at him without saying a word.
Perfected Lord Tian Lan smiled and said in a low voice, "Perhaps he can really injure me."
Lu Chen closed his eyes.
Perfected Lord Tianlan was not offended. He thought for a moment and said, "How did you manage to make a sound on two walls at the same time when you were outside the house?"
Just as Lu Chen was about to say something, the two of them suddenly sensed something and turned to look at the collapsed house together.
They saw a stone being pushed away from the rubble. Then, a black figure jumped out and stood on the spot, shaking with all its might. Immediately, a cloud of dust rose. It was Black Dog.
Lu Chen did not say anything, but Perfected Lord Tianlan smiled and nodded. "This dog is not bad."
Lying on Perfected Lord Tianlan's shoulder, Lu Chen walked through the crowd. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure standing in the crowd not far away. The person was looking at him with surprise and a little doubt. Lu Chen hesitated for a moment. Then, he waved at the fat man and said, "Old Ma, come here for a moment."
In the crowd, Old Ma was startled. The people around him immediately dispersed, leaving him alone.
Old Ma smiled awkwardly and had no choice but to walk forward. Apparently, Perfected Lord Tianlan had no intention of stopping for Old Ma and continued to walk his own path.
Even if Old Ma was ten times more courageous, he would not dare to argue with Perfected Lord Tianlan. Therefore, he could only blindly follow behind Perfected Lord Tianlan. Then, he slightly bent down and approached Lu Chen. With a sad face and a little nervous, he said, "My little ancestor, what are you doing?"
Lu Chen coughed and pointed to the back. Then, he said, "White Lotus is still in that house. She was buried under the rubble. Although … I don't know whether she is dead or alive, you can go and have a look. "
Perfected Lord Tianlan did not look back, but at this moment, he slightly raised his eyebrows.
Old Ma was stunned for a moment. No one knew what had happened in that house. However, when he peeked at Perfected Lord Tianlan, he found that this big shot had no intention of saying anything. Old Ma could only grit his teeth and nodded to Lu Chen. "I see."
Lu Chen hummed in acknowledgment. He seemed to still be a little worried, so he added, "If she's dead, we'll bury her. If she's still alive, we'll try our best to save her. After all, she's someone we know."
"Oh," Old Ma agreed. Then, he turned back and strode toward the house.
Perfected Lord Tianlan walked a few steps forward with Lu Chen on his back. Suddenly, he said, "Just an acquaintance?"
Lu Chen said, "That's it."
"Okay." Perfected Lord Tianlan nodded expressionlessly. Then, he left with Lu Chen on his back.
…
After the two protagonists left, the surrounding crowd gradually dispersed. Only Old Ma was left standing in front of the pile of collapsed houses, speechless for a moment. He stood there for a moment and looked around. However, he found that no one came over. It seemed that everyone was very smart and did not want to get involved in this matter, which was likely to cause trouble for them.
Therefore, he was the only one who was unlucky.
Old Ma sighed and lowered his head to turn over the broken stones and bricks. Next to him, Atsu probably saw that Lu Chen was carried away by Perfected Lord Tianlan. It stayed where it was and did not follow Lu Chen. It was probably because this dog had always been in awe of the bald Perfected Lord and was unwilling to approach him.
However, even if it stayed where it was, Atsu obviously had no intention of helping Old Ma. It took a few steps to the side, jumped on a stone, and lay on it. Then, it lazily watched Old Ma work like a laborer.
Although Old Ma was fat, he was still a cultivator and had some cultivation. Therefore, he worked much faster than ordinary people. Soon, he turned over a lot of broken bricks and found White Lotus lying in a cloud of dust.
Looking at White Lotus lying on the ground, covered with dust, Old Ma was shocked and hurried to check her breath. After a while, a warm breath came from his fingertips. Old Ma heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he stared at the girl whose beautiful face was mostly covered by dust, shook his head, and said to himself, "You also have a hard life. In fact, it's very tiring to live, but who wants to die …"
When he said the last sentence, his voice was very soft, as if he had been touched by something.
