Wan 'er was truly beautiful.
In terms of appearance, her beauty did not lose out to Beauty Yao and Beauty Yang. Furthermore, she had a kind of temperament as well. This was a temperament … that was both cheerful and weak at the same time.
Her body was naturally weak, causing her face to be extremely pale. Even her skin seemed to be a little translucent, as though it could really be broken by the slightest breeze. However, she was also very cheerful, and did not feel any sadness because of her weak body. On the contrary, her eyes carried a light, a light that was filled with hope and anticipation. When these two temperaments appeared on the same person, even the seven women present had never seen such a unique temperament before, and it possessed an extremely unique charm.
However … such a woman suddenly appeared by Lu An's side, and returned together with Lu An three months after he left. There was no way the seven women could not help but overthink. Especially when this woman was so beautiful that even the heavens would pity her, causing the seven women to feel great pressure.
The seven women were happy because of Lu An's return, but they were also flustered because of this woman's appearance. Liu Yi was the first to speak, as she asked. "Husband, she … who is she?"
Liu Yi's words were very clever, as her first words were already a declaration of sovereignty.
At this moment, before Lu An could reply, Yao spoke first.
"You … aren't human?" After sensing the woman's aura, she was startled and gently asked.
The six women's bodies trembled upon hearing this, and they immediately looked at Yao, before looking at Lu An and this woman. Lu An naturally knew that his family would misunderstand if he brought back a woman, so he immediately explained. "She's called Wan 'er, and she's a Dragon. When I was in the Second Southern Sea Region, she risked her life to help me head to the Central Continent. If not for her help, I'm afraid I would still be swimming in the waters of the Second Southern Sea Region. "
After hearing that this woman was actually a Dragon, the six women simultaneously heaved a sigh of relief, but they did not completely relax. Previously, Bian Qingliu was moved by Miss Chu Yue, and no one could guarantee that Lu An would not develop feelings for a Dragon woman. Seeing the seven women's worried looks, Lu An directly transmitted his voice through divine sense, saying. "Don't misunderstand, I don't have the feelings you think I have for her."
Upon hearing Lu An's voice transmission, the seven women heaved a sigh of relief. But after calming down and thinking about it, they really didn't have to worry. Lu An's heart was with Fu Yu, how could he share it with others?
Then, Lu An introduced the seven girls to Miss Wan 'er. When Miss Wan 'er heard that the seven beautiful women in front of her were Lu An's wives, she was so shocked that her mouth fell open. Although she didn't have any friends, her parents had taught her a lot of etiquette when she was very young. As a guest, she immediately greeted every woman cheerfully.
To be honest, Wan'er's temperament was irresistible. Even the seven women could not help but feel a sense of love for her. Especially when Lu An told the seven girls about Wan'er and her experiences, as well as the reason he brought her back, the seven girls' hearts really hurt.
Ever since he was young, he had never had any friends. Not only did he not have any friends, but all living creatures were also estranged from him, as if he was the only one living in this world. This was an unimaginable pain.
Grudges and hatred sounded terrifying, but if one imagined that he was the only one left in the world, without even a cow, sheep, cat, or dog to accompany him, how desperate and lonely would that be? And Wan'er's situation was even more unbearable. Not only was she experiencing this loneliness, but she also knew that she was being hated.
After hearing Lu An's words, the seven women let down all their guard. Liu Yi walked in front of Wan'er and gently held her hand. She said, "From today onwards, this is your new beginning. Although we are humans, we will definitely treat you as a true friend."
Wan'er happily nodded and looked at the seven women behind her. Although she was a bit timid, she was more willing to make friends. To be able to talk to others was the happiest thing for her.
Now that the Sect Alliance was free, the seven women had a lot of time to accompany her, but now they wanted to be with Lu An more. Liu Yi called Xu Yunyan over. When Xu Yunyan found that Lu An had returned, she was also very excited and happy. Liu Yi told Xu Yunyan to personally take care of Wan'er and accompany her. Xu Yunyan naturally obeyed and left with Wan'er.
After Wan'er and Xu Yunyan left, only Lu An and the seven women were left in the room. There were no outsiders, so the seven women could not help but go up and hug Lu An.
Feeling his wife's hug, Lu An could feel how much they were worried and missed him.
Lu An's voice was filled with apology as he said, "I'm sorry for making you guys worry."
"Congratulations on breaking through, Husband," Looking at Lu An from afar, she said softly, "Husband's aura is not only at the level of a recent breakthrough."
Lu An nodded lightly. Indeed, perhaps it was because he had stayed at the mid-stage of the eighth level for an extra month, or perhaps it was because of other reasons, but after breaking through, his cultivation was not only at the level of a recent breakthrough. This might be able to reduce the time he needed to reach the bottleneck of the ninth level. This was the only good news after returning empty-handed.
"Where did Master go in the past three months?" Beauty Yang asked curiously in a cold voice.
Lu An and the seven women all sat down. Then, Lu An recounted everything from the moment he left home to the moment he returned. This included meeting Wan'er, his experience on the central continent, the mysterious underground palace, and the white-robed man. Of course, he skipped over the battle with the white-robed man. He did not mention that he was injured, only that he won.
Hearing Lu An's recount, the seven women were extremely shocked. They had imagined many of Lu An's experiences, but other than being discovered by the Dragons, they could not imagine anything else. Even when they imagined that the Dragons had discovered Lu An, they thought that it was just one of the Dragons. After all, for the sake of the Dragon Emperor Bone, they would not reveal Lu An's whereabouts. However, they did not expect that Lu An would be surrounded by the Eight Upper Clans and even fight with the Eight Dragon Kings!
Fortunately, the Eight Dragon Kings' powers were greatly suppressed in the underground space. Otherwise, Lu An would have died without a doubt, and it would be useless to say anything.
"Why is there such a mysterious suppressive force?" Liu Yi asked doubtfully. "Why is Husband not affected as much as the Eight Dragon Kings?"
Lu An thought seriously and said, "During the two days on Heavenly Tiger Island, I also thought about this question. I guess it might have something to do with bloodlines. The suppressive force of the space might directly affect one's bloodline. Those with strong bloodlines would be less affected, but the Eight Dragon Kings' bloodlines are not as strong as mine, so they were more affected. Other than this, I can't think of any other explanation. "
The seven ladies nodded after hearing this. This could indeed be explained, but no one knew the truth. Since he had already left, it would be meaningless to investigate further. They were very surprised that the Eight Dragon Kings were willing to let Lu An leave. However, they were more concerned about the entire palace.
The white-robed man …
The Lifeless Divine Wind …
The Li Family of the Hachiko clan …
This news was too serious. Lu An left the underground palace directly and did not enter again. This meant that Lu An did not know whether the white-robed man was dead or alive. If he offended the Li Family because of this, it meant that he would have to face three clans in the Promise of Ten Years!
Moreover, through the fight between Lu An and the white-robed man, they found out for the first time that the Lifeless Divine Wind's higher ability was vibration. They only knew the names of the Hachiko clan's ultimate Fate Wheel, but they did not know the corresponding abilities. The Divine Master and Divine Empress did not tell Yao Si, and Fu Yu did not tell Lu An. The people in the sect did not have the right to know.
Using vibration to attack, this kind of power that was impossible to guard against, sounded frightening!
There was also the unique space that Lu An fell into after his breakthrough. They could not even explain what happened inside. However, according to the seven ladies' speculation, there must be a deeper secret in the underground palace. The buildings above and the central palace were probably just a facade, or a huge array to protect this secret. This made people curious. What was the secret that the seven ancient clans of the eight ancient clans were trying to keep together in this vast underground space that was more than one thousand three hundred miles long?
What kind of power needed to be protected by the entire Hachiko clan? They even hid this secret in the base camp of the Dragons in the Second Southern Sea Region. This was unbelievable!
After saying this, Lu An took a deep breath and said in a heavy tone, "No matter what, I returned empty-handed this time. I got nothing."
During the breakthrough, Lu An did not put the half-melted brocade box into his ring. Instead, he put it on the ground. Therefore, when he fell, he did not know where the brocade box went.
"The brocade box is empty. You can't blame my husband." Liu Yi comforted him. "My husband has been cultivating all this time and has not been idle. How can you say that you returned empty-handed? We know the secret underground. Maybe we will have the chance to go there in the future and dig out the real secret. "
"I hope so." Lu An took another deep breath and asked, "How has the family been these three months?"
"We are all good. The Alliance Meeting is also good. The Sect Alliance is also very peaceful." Liu Yi paused. After thinking for a while, she said, "But … the Hidden Sky Sect is starting to become restless."
