"How can you talk? I clearly just sealed ….. "The cultivator who had locked Dong Li in place was not able to finish his words when Ning Cheng kicked him away. Even the cultivator standing next to him was also kicked away by Ning Cheng.
"Dong Li, go upstairs and bring Lu Yu out, and then come with me." Ning Cheng said after kicking away the two cultivators who had locked Dong Li.
Dong Li came back to his senses. Someone was standing up for him. He repeatedly thanked, "Thank you, Senior. Thank you."
Although he thanked Ning Cheng, he didn't slow down at all. After just a few words, he rushed into the restaurant again.
The brocade-robed male cultivator who came out of the restaurant looked at Ning Cheng in a daze and didn't dare to stop Dong Li. The two cultivators who had locked Dong Li were both in Heaven's Mandate Realm, yet this person easily kicked them away. Was this person a Heaven Seated expert?
Regardless of whether Ning Cheng was a Heaven Seated expert or not, he didn't dare to continue talking to Ning Cheng, at least not now.
Chasing Bull, on seeing Ning Cheng take action, immediately walked to the brocade-robed male cultivator's side and stretched out its hoof to rub against his robe, "Kid, your clothes look good. At least it looks like a human touching a dog."
The brocade-robed male cultivator didn't dare to refute Chasing Bull's words and just secretly sent out a few messages.
In just a few minutes, Dong Li came out with Lu Yu. By this time, Lu Yu had changed into a clean robe, but the scar on her neck was still very clear.
"Lu Yu thanks Senior for saving my life." Lu Yu was much more worldly than Dong Li, and the first thing she did after coming out was to thank Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng waved his hand, "It's nothing. You can come with me. After I leave Second Revenant Star, I'll take you two with me."
Ning Cheng was very clear that the person who could occupy such a large piece of land in this place and build such a luxurious merchant house was definitely not an ordinary cultivator. If he left after saving Dong Li and Lu Yu, these two people would fall into the hands of others sooner or later. As for helping Lu Yu find justice and fighting back, Ning Cheng didn't even think about it. Such things happened too often. Unless the people around him were bullied, he wouldn't care about such things.
Lu Yu said gratefully, "Thank you, thank you Senior. This junior and his wife have never met Senior before …"
Ning Cheng knew what Lu Yu was worried about. These two people had been hiding here for many years and had developed a habit of being cautious. If they didn't know his identity and followed him, they wouldn't feel at ease.
After understanding Lu Yu's thoughts, Ning Cheng simply explained, "You don't have to worry about it. I saved you because of Xuan Yu. I know Xuan Yu, so I know what happened to you. That's why I saved you. "
Lu Yu was obviously not an ignorant little girl. She had experienced too many things. With Ning Cheng's flat tone and expression, coupled with knowing Xuan Yu, she immediately understood what the problem was. However, she pursed her lips and did not explain the matter.
Chasing Bull was a long-winded fellow. Not only was it long-winded, but it also liked to meddle. Ning Cheng did not ask for the reason, but it could not help but deliberately walk to Dong Li's side, and opened its mouth to speak, "You don't have any experience, just look at the luxurious appearance of that restaurant, you know that it is not something you can deal with. You two don't know life from death and even tried to find trouble with that restaurant. "
In Lu Yu's view, although Chasing Bull was just a companion beast, since it could follow her savior, it naturally had a high status. Moreover, this companion beast's aura clearly surpassed her and Dong Li's.
Although Lu Yu only had a Celestial Bridge cultivation, she understood the relationship in an instant and quickly replied with a respectful tone, "Senior Spirit Beast, this place originally belonged to me and Dong Li. But when the Ancient Shadow Temple appeared, Ji Clan occupied it. The Ji Clan basically snatched all the nearby shops like this. They didn't spend any money at all. For the sake of these shops, who knows how many innocent people the Ji Clan has killed? "
Hearing Lu Yu address it as Senior Spirit Beast, Chasing Bull spoke up with even more pride, "Well, you have a good eye. In that case, why are you still here? "
Spirit Beast was a respectful title for ordinary companion beasts. Even if one looked at the entire starry sky, where would a spirit beast come from? Even if there was a spirit beast, how could it become someone else's companion beast? The reason why Chasing Bull spoke so proudly was that it truly was a spirit beast.
"It's all my fault. Yu 'er and I did some business outside the Ancient Shadow Temple and made some money recently. But because more and more people came here, Yu 'er felt a little worried, so we decided to leave this place. Before leaving, I felt a little reluctant to leave my old store, so I came here to reminisce about it. I didn't expect to get caught for no reason. If it weren't for senior ….. "
Ning Cheng naturally understood Dong Li's words. If it weren't for him, Lu Yu and Dong Li would have most likely died here today.
Lu Yu followed and explained, "Someone in the store must have recognised me and wanted to take me to the Orchid Borough Celestial River to hand me over to the Orchid Borough Celestial River King. I've been away from the Orchid Borough Celestial River for so many years. It stands to reason that no one would recognise me even if there was a wanted poster. "
Ning Cheng felt relieved in his heart. He knew better than Lu Yu what was going on. If he guessed correctly, the Orchid Borough Celestial River King must have failed to catch Xuan Yu and started to put a wanted poster on Xuan Yu. Since someone wanted to capture Lu Yu, it most likely confused the two.
Since Xuan Yu had not been caught, Jing Wuming naturally would not be caught.
Seeing Ning Cheng not speaking, Lu Yu spoke up with some worry, "Senior, the people who were taught a lesson by senior were from the Ji Clan. These merchant buildings all belong to the Ji Family. Senior saved me and Dong Li here. I'm afraid, afraid … "
Chasing Bull gave a cold snort, "What is there to be afraid of? It's fine if the Ji Family doesn't come, but if they do, Master doesn't even need to do anything. This Old Bull will trample them to death. "
Dong Li also carefully spoke up, "Named Descendant Celestial River's Celestial River King is called Ji Yangyao. I heard that he is a powerhouse in the Life and Death Realm. As for Named Descendant Star's main star, Named Mu 'ya Star's master was called Ji Yaozhi, and he had just advanced to the Heaven Seated Realm. The owner of this merchant house was Ji Hongliu, and Ji Hongliu was the granddaughter of Celestial River King Ji Yangyao. Senior, look … "
"Hmph, the Ji family is nothing. Even if this old bull had been to Levelled Heart Emperor Mountain, Levelled Heart Heavenly Emperor would have to stand in front of this old bull to speak. "Chasing Bull started to brag.
Dong Li and Lu Yu rarely went out and lived in seclusion in this place, but that didn't mean that they didn't know anything. They also knew about Heavenly Emperor Chuan Xinlou of Levelled Heart Emperor Mountain. Hearing Chasing Bull say that Levelled Heart Emperor Mountain had also been to Levelled Heart Emperor Mountain and that Heavenly Emperor Chuan Xinlou would stand in front of him to speak, they couldn't help but feel shocked. They couldn't help but wonder if Chasing Bull was telling the truth or not.
Chasing Bull, on seeing the frightened Dong Li and Lu Yu, spoke up with even more pride, "Master, why don't we buy this piece of land belonging to the Ji Clan and then move Culmination Starland's Cheng Ruolan Artefact-crafting Store here?"
Ning Cheng didn't even bother to pay attention to Chasing Bull. Instead, his spiritual consciousness swept out in an overwhelming manner.
"Cheng Ruolan Artefact-crafting Store?" At this time, Dong Li and Lu Yu spoke up at the same time.
Ning Cheng subconsciously looked at Dong Li and Lu Yu, wondering why the two were so surprised about this Artefact-crafting Store.
Seeing Ning Cheng's surprised gaze, Lu Yu reacted quickly and quickly replied, "Senior, there used to be a store in front of our store called Cheng Ruolan, but it's called Cheng Ruolan Restaurant."
"You said there's a Cheng Ruolan Restaurant here? What's the owner's name? " Ning Cheng had long since forgotten that Lu Yu was a female cultivator. He reached out and grabbed Lu Yu's shoulder, as if afraid that she would walk away.
"The owner's name is Helian Mingzhe, and he has a granddaughter, Helian Dai ….."
Lu Yu only finished half of her words when Ning Cheng put down his hand in disappointment. It wasn't surprising for people to have the same name in this vast starry sky. Even so, he still had to ask where Helian Mingzhe went.
"There's also a helper called Ning Ruolan. Cheng Ruolan Restaurant is named after Ning Ruolan. "
After hearing Lu Yu's words, Ning Cheng felt stunned. After a few breaths, he asked with a trembling voice, "Where did Ning Ruolan go? Where is she? "
"Senior ….." Lu Yu seemed to feel something and called out with some uncertainty.
Ning Cheng took in a deep breath and cupped his fists towards Lu Yu and Dong Li. "My name is Ning Cheng, Ning Ruolan's elder brother. I came here to look for Ruolan. Tell me, where is Ruolan? "
Lu Yu and Dong Li opened their mouths wide and couldn't speak for a long time. Ruolan's cultivation couldn't be any lower. How could she have such a powerful elder brother? This …
"Hurry up and talk. Are you mute?" Chasing Bull saw Lu Yu and Dong Li in a daze and shouted with some dissatisfaction.
Lu Yu recovered and quickly spoke up, "Cheng Ruolan Restaurant, like my shop, was forcibly occupied by Ji Clan ….."
Ning Cheng interrupted Lu Yu's words in fear, "Is Ruolan okay?"
After a moment of silence, Lu Yu spoke up with some uncertainty, "I guess she should be fine. A few months ago, I saw Helian Dai in front of the Ancient Shadow Temple. She seemed to have opened a temporary shop there. I think since Helian Dai is fine, Ruolan should also be fine. "
Ning Cheng felt anxious and hurriedly spoke up, "Hurry up and take me to the Ancient Shadow Temple, the place where you saw Helian Dai last time."
"Yes, senior." Lu Yu and Dong Li hurriedly led the way.
Ning Cheng didn't have the mood to settle accounts with Ji Clan at this time. At least, he had to find Ruolan first. Whether he could find Ruolan or not, he would raze Ji Clan to the ground for occupying Cheng Ruolan Restaurant.
So what if it was a Celestial River King? He had just killed a Sacred Master in Everlasting Sacred Shrine and even planned to take a trip to the Endless Void Docks. Why would he care about a Celestial River King?
Not to mention that Striking Order Heavenly Emperor wouldn't fall out with him for killing the Named Descendant Celestial River's Celestial River King, even if Striking Order Heavenly Emperor fell out with him, he wouldn't fear it.
… …
The Ancient Shadow Temple wasn't far from the east gate of Covered Snow City. Ning Cheng followed Lu Yu out of the east gate and in less than half an hour, they arrived at the periphery of the Ancient Shadow Temple.
However, various array formations had melted the snow here, and various temporary buildings, makeshift marketplaces, caves, and artefacts could be seen everywhere. People came and went, creating a lot of noise.
Lu Yu quickly led Ning Cheng to the place where she saw Helian Dai. She pointed to a newly erected merchant house and said, "This merchant house didn't exist at that time. This is Helian Dai's territory. I guess Helian Dai and the others had been driven away."
