The headquarters of the Ice and Fire Union was not very big, and Miss Wan 'er's residence was not very far away. She lived in the area where many core elders lived, and they were very close to each other. However, considering that Wan 'er was a dragon, her living habits might be very different from humans, so everyone carefully designed and renovated Wan' er's pavilion. It could ensure her comfort, and there were many interesting things for humans.
Wan 'er, who was doted on by everyone, felt happiness that she had never felt before. When she was in the second southern sea, all the strange beasts avoided her, and there was no life wherever she went. But here, everyone liked her very much, and she felt incomparable warmth.
However, in the warmth, there was still an emptiness in the deepest part of her heart. That place had been filled before, and it was only filled when that person was there.
At this time, everyone was busy with their own positions, and she was the only one living in the pavilion. Among the gifts that everyone gave her, she liked musical instruments the most. The musical instruments of Heavenly Masters were different from those of ordinary people. Even if they looked the same, whether it was the materials used in the construction or the changes on the instrument, they were all beyond the original essence.
For example, Wan 'er's favorite musical instrument, the Nine Seas Zither.
The Nine Seas Zither's general shape was similar to a guqin, but in fact, it was very different. In terms of materials, the body of the zither was made of special ore from the bottom of the sea, and the strings were made of silk from the bottom of the sea in the extreme south. They both contained extremely powerful energy, and it was the energy of the deep sea. There was also a special formation hidden in the body of the zither, which contained powerful energy. Plucking different strings would trigger different formations, and produce different sounds.
Different … the sound of the ocean.
It was the sound of the real ocean, and there was no difference at all. Some were rough, some were sharp, some were turbulent, some were soft, some were sonorous, and some were low. Different ocean sounds appeared on the zither at the same time. Through matching and melody, one could play a very beautiful sound, just like the ocean, which could make people sink in an instant.
This zither was given to Wan 'er by the Celestial Union.
It was accidentally obtained by a race, and the formation inside was already broken at that time. Zhu He personally erased the Array Formation from the inside and replaced it with a new one. Zhu He had lived in the ocean for so many years, and he had heard too many ocean sounds. He had mastered its essence, and the sound was naturally exactly the same as the real ocean.
At this moment, Wan 'er was plucking the strings.
The sound of the zither was beautiful, and the playing was even more beautiful. Wan'er had a special understanding of the sound of the ocean. Even the princess of the Xuanyin Clan, Chu Yue, praised her.
This was completely different from the music of the Xuanyin Clan. Wan'er had truly brought out the full potential of the Nine Seas Zither. Nine seas, nine completely different concepts. They were all explained by Wan'er's delicate hands. It was so beautiful that it was intoxicating.
However, no matter how beautiful the music was, no matter how beautiful the performance was, it could not compare to Wan'er's beauty.
Lu An stood at the door. The door was not closed. He looked at Wan'er, who was playing the guqin, and did not disturb her. Instead, he stood where he was and listened quietly.
Although Lu An did not understand music, he understood emotions. The sound of the zither was full of emotions, but it hid a sense of loneliness.
When the song ended, Lu An, who was standing at the door, took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Dong dong.
Wan'er was startled and immediately turned around to look. When she saw Lu An standing at the door, she immediately smiled happily.
Her smile was like a blooming flower.
"You're here!" Wan'er's voice was very soft, and there was even a trace of weakness that could not be concealed. She immediately got up and took the initiative to greet Lu An. She even trotted over.
Lu An smiled and walked into the room. Soon, the two of them stood in front of Wan'er.
Wan'er... wanted to throw herself into Lu An's arms and have physical contact with Lu An. However, she understood human etiquette. Even if she had such thoughts, she knew that men and women should not touch each other. She could only stand in front of Lu An and say excitedly, "You're finally here! I missed you so much! "
Wan'er did not hide her feelings. When these words came out of her mouth, it did not feel abrupt at all.
Her eyes were very clear, without any impurities. After Lu An appeared in her eyes, hope appeared at the same time. It was as if the deepest part of her heart was filled in an instant.
There was not much love in her eyes. Instead, there was a sense of belonging.
"Miss Wan'er." Seeing Wan'er, Lu An also felt a sense of calmness. It was as if he had returned to the time when they first met on the island. He said softly, "I'm sorry that I didn't come to see you before."
"It's okay!" Wan'er hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I don't mind. I'm very happy that I can live here. I can feel your aura every time you come back."
As she said that, Wan'er's smile became even more beautiful. She said, "Everyone is very good to me. I also have many friends!"
Looking at Wan'er's smile, Lu An's heart was very complicated. Different people had different definitions of happiness. Some people wanted to be above others. However, for Wan'er, having friends was enough.
"I will come to see you often in the future," Lu An said seriously.
After Lu An said that, Wan'er was slightly stunned. Then, the smile on her face became even more beautiful. In such a smile, it was as if even the deep sea could become bright and beautiful.
Lu An did not leave quickly. Instead, he sat with Wan'er for a full 15 minutes. He did not know why, but after breaking through to become a Level Nine Heavenly Master, he had a special feeling when he saw Wan'er again. Even if it was difficult to discover, Lu An had always believed in his intuition and judgment. This was definitely not an illusion.
When he was with Wan'er, he had a kind of... relaxed, and even a feeling of nostalgia. Even he wanted to stay with Wan'er for a while longer.
He did not know where this feeling came from. Even Lu An could not figure it out. However, with Lu An's strong Divine Sense and willpower, he could easily overcome this feeling. He could not stay for too long. Cultivating was the most important thing for him to do. Therefore, after 15 minutes, Lu An still left.
Wan'er was already very happy that Lu An could accompany her. It was also the happiest time she had been since she came here.
Wan'er sent Lu An off. Looking at Lu An's back, Wan'er's heart seemed to slow down. Her eyes were full of reluctance.

At noon, Lu An immediately went out to cultivate after leaving Wan'er's pavilion. He did not come back until late at night.
At this time, it was already midnight.
In the central pavilion's office, the teleportation array lit up and Lu An walked out. The reason why he used the teleportation array was that it was late at night and everyone was resting. If there was someone here, Lu An was afraid that they would suddenly appear and startle him.
When Lu An walked out of the teleportation array, there was indeed someone here.
There was only one person, Liu Lan.
Liu Lan was still in the Alliance Master's seat, flipping through materials and books. She wanted to complete the task given to her by her sister. She did not want to disappoint her sister, and she did not want to disappoint Lu An. Therefore, she had been working hard. Although she was only a Level Seven Heavenly Master, her energy was not something an ordinary person could compare to. In the past month, she had very little time to rest.
Seeing that Liu Lan was still there, Lu An's heart was filled with heartache.
He did not let Liu Lan get up. Instead, he walked to her side and said gently, "It's too late. Rest."
"It's okay. I'm not tired." Liu Lan looked up at her husband and said seriously.
Seeing how determined his wife was, Lu An's heart ached. He knew that she was so tired because of his family. After reaching out to massage his wife's shoulders, he looked at his wife's face and couldn't help but lean over and kiss her.
Facing Lu An's sudden attack, Liu Lan did not react. When she did, her face instantly turned red.
Her face was very hot, and she held Lu An's hand tightly.
Lu An would not stay for long. He would not give himself time to rest. He said, "I'm leaving."
With that, Lu An was about to leave and continue cultivating. Lu An did not let his wife get up to send him off. He walked to the center of the room and activated the teleportation array.
However, just as Lu An was about to leave, Liu Lan suddenly thought of something!
"Husband!" Liu Lan quickly said.
Lu An stopped and turned to look at Liu Lan's anxious expression. He immediately asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
"In the afternoon, the Flower Moon Sect Elder came to pass a message. She said that the Sect Master wants to invite you for an exchange." Liu Lan quickly said, "She said that the Sect Master has always been in the headquarters. If you are free, you can go there at any time."
Exchange?
Lu An immediately remembered that he had once told Li Tang about the power of space. He had completely forgotten about this matter in the past few days of cultivation. If Li Tang had not mentioned it, he would not have remembered it at all.
After all, this was something that he had promised Li Tang. Moreover, if Li Tang's strength could improve, it would be beneficial for him and the Ice Fire Union.
After thinking about it, Lu An said to Liu Lan, "Okay, since that's the case, I'll go now."
With that, Lu An activated the teleportation array again and disappeared from the room.
