The headquarters of the Tripartite Alliance, in a pavilion.
Wan 'er was in the Celestial Realm, so she naturally had the right to live here. Wan 'er was very beautiful, and her personality was very gentle, so many people liked her. Of course, everyone knew that Wan 'er was not a human, but a dragon. Even so, no one disliked Wan' er.
However, Wan 'er's body was indeed getting weaker, but her cultivation level was getting higher. Wan 'er did not cultivate, let alone deliberately cultivate, because her body was too weak and could not support her cultivation. Moreover, Wan 'er was not interested in cultivation level and strength. This was similar to Liu Yi. However, for Lu An, Liu Yi still cared about her own strength, but Wan 'er really did not care.
This feeling was as if the growth of her cultivation level was overdrawing Wan 'er's life.
At this moment, Wan 'er was in her own pavilion. Because there was no war, everyone was very idle. Every day, many people came to accompany her. Not only people from the Ice and Fire Alliance, but even Prince Qi and Yuerong would occasionally come. In the past, she was ostracized and isolated, but now she was doted on. This made her very happy, even though her body was getting weaker and weaker, even though … the speed of her weakening was much faster than when she was in the Southern Second Sea.
Perhaps her clan really was a curse. Everyone in her clan would die, and everyone who got close to them would die.
Wan 'er did not forget her clan's ancestral teachings. No matter what, she had to find someone to marry and pass on her bloodline. This was a task she had to complete. However, the Dragons stayed far away from her. She did not even have any friends. Who would be with her?
It could only be said that Wan 'er's ancestors were very lucky. Her clan's bad reputation was not completely spread. After all, at the beginning, only a few dragons knew. As time passed, the reputation gradually spread. By the time Wan 'er's mother was born, finding the other half to inherit the ancestral teachings was extremely difficult. Until the end of her life, she only found one. Thus, after giving birth to Wan' er, she died. Her father also passed away not long after. Now, all the Dragons knew that Wan 'er was a jinx. Even though Wan 'er was so beautiful, who would want to use their own life to try?
Wan 'er could not find any Dragons' friends, so she stayed in the Life and Death Alliance.
At this moment, Wan 'er was in her room. There was no one else. At this moment, a figure flew into the pavilion from outside and entered the room.
Without looking, Wan 'er's body trembled!
Such a familiar aura.
Moreover, it was the most intimate aura she had ever felt.
Wan'er immediately turned around in surprise. Who else could it be but Lu An in the room?
Wan'er's eyes were suddenly filled with light. Lu An also looked at Wan'er. His dark eyes were filled with worry and anxiety. Wan'er was not lying on the bed. Instead, she was sitting on a chair. In front of Wan'er was the Nine Seas Zither. She didn't play it. She was looking at the music score in her hand.
After entering the room, Lu An immediately sensed Wan 'er's aura … This didn't seem like the aura of a Heaven Tier cultivator at all. It could barely be the aura of a Rank Eight Mystical Beast!
How could this be?
If this kind of aura appeared on a Heaven Tier warrior, then he was either an arrow at the end of its flight, or he was seriously injured to the point that his life was in danger. There was no third possibility, and it was even more impossible for there to be a good outcome. Because of this, Lu An quickly came to Wan'er and asked anxiously, "How is Miss Wan'er? Where do you feel uncomfortable? "
"I'm fine." Wan'er was really happy to see Lu An. Why would she want to talk to Lu An about her body? She only wanted to chat with Lu An.
Lu An knew what kind of person Wan'er was. Because she had been ostracized for a long time, even if she was cheerful, she didn't want to cause trouble for others. It was not realistic to get anything out of Wan'er, so Lu An simply said, "I took the liberty to make a move. Miss Wan'er, please don't mind me."
As he spoke, Lu An immediately stretched out his palm. Instantly, a supreme immortal aura surged out and quickly entered Wan'er's body.
Wan'er's body had no defensive ability at all. So, Lu An's supreme immortal aura easily entered her body. When Lu An felt Wan'er's body flowing like water, he couldn't help but be shocked!
How could this be?
How could a Heaven Tier cultivator's aura flow so slowly?!
Moreover, the scary thing was that Wan'er's internal organs, blood vessels, meridians, and Qi were all fine. The channels were completely open, and there was nothing blocking them. However, there was no flow of energy. Moreover, Lu An felt that Wan'er's blood vessels were extremely weak. They were as thin as silk, as if they could be broken by the wind!
Why was this?
Lu An had never seen an injury like Wan'er's, because it was completely illogical. He believed that he knew medicine very well. If he didn't know medicine, he wouldn't be able to refine healing pills. Because if he didn't know medicine, he wouldn't be able to understand the combination and mystery of pills. However, even he couldn't think of a reason. He couldn't even think of a possibility.
If this continued, Lu An was afraid that something would happen to Wan'er!
"Wait for me!" Lu An immediately said after retracting his palm. "I'll go get the Immortal Empress. I'll be back soon!"
After speaking, Lu An's figure immediately used Space Teleportation. Wan'er was stunned. She wanted to stop him, but it was too late. She could only watch as Lu An's figure disappeared in front of her.
The Immortal Empress wasn't at the headquarters of the Tripartite Alliance. She was in Sengoku. When Lu An heard the news, he immediately went to Sengoku. Lu An asked the Immortal Empress for help. Naturally, the Immortal Empress wouldn't refuse. Not to mention Lu An's current importance, Lu An was also the Immortal Empress's son-in-law and disciple. Lu An had never asked the Immortal Empress for help. This was the first time. Naturally, the Immortal Empress wouldn't refuse.
Thus, the Immortal Empress and Lu An immediately went to the headquarters of the Tripartite Alliance and went to Wan'er's room. After all, the Immortal Empress was a Heavenly King expert. When such a powerful person appeared, Wan'er wouldn't be able to withstand it if she couldn't restrain her aura.
Naturally, the Immortal Empress wouldn't hurt Wan'er. She retracted her aura and came before Wan'er. Even if she didn't release her supreme Immortal Qi, as long as she wanted to, she could clearly sense the situation in Wan'er's body.
How could this be?
Not only Lu An, but even the Immortal Empress was puzzled. Although Wan'er's body was very weak, it was all equal. They couldn't find the cause.
Even the Immortal Empress was stumped by Wan'er's body.
However, the Immortal Empress was still the Immortal Empress. She had seen and learned too many difficult problems. She wasn't in a hurry. Instead, she gestured for the two to chat casually. She sat by the side and observed carefully. She slowly examined the energy flow in Wan'er's body. Although she couldn't find the problem now, it didn't mean that she wouldn't be able to find the problem forever. The problem might not appear all the time. Instead, it might appear at different times. However, as long as there was a problem, it would definitely appear.
With the Immortal Empress around, Lu An and Wan'er naturally couldn't chat casually. Instead, they waited quietly. After about ten breaths of time, the Immortal Empress suddenly frowned.
Lu An had been looking at the Immortal Empress and Wan'er. He immediately noticed the change in the Immortal Empress' expression. He hurriedly asked, "Mother-in-law, have you found the cause?"
"Not yet." The Immortal Empress only glanced at Lu An. Then, she looked at Wan'er and asked, "From generation to generation, have your lifespans been getting shorter and shorter? Wasn't it always this short?"
Hearing the Immortal Empress' question, Wan'er immediately sat up straight and said seriously, "Yes."
The Immortal Empress was right. Her family's lifespans were getting shorter and shorter, but not every generation.
"Do you know the reason?" the Immortal Empress asked.
"I don't know." Wan'er shook her head honestly.
The Immortal Empress took a deep breath. Since she could ask this question that no one else knew, she must have thought of something. She said, "Although I don't know the cause of your illness, I can guess why your family's lifespans are getting shorter and shorter."
Wan'er was surprised and curious. She immediately asked, "May I ask why, Immortal Empress?"
"Because the Dragons are getting more and more distant from you," the Immortal Empress said seriously.
When she said this, Wan'er and Lu An were both stunned!
"Mother-in-law, what does this have to do with anything?" Lu An hurriedly asked.
"The dragons that get close to her family will die because her family is absorbing the life force of other dragons." The Immortal Empress looked at the two of them. Then, she looked at Wan'er and said, "When the other dragons realize this fact and become distant from your family, they won't be able to absorb the life force of other dragons. Naturally, your family's lifespans will get shorter and shorter."
"..."
Lu An looked at the Immortal Empress in shock. He thought that the so-called short lifespans were just rumors. He didn't expect it to be true!
"But … How did you know?" Lu An was very confused. There were no dragons here. How did the Immortal Empress discover and confirm this?
"It's very simple." The Immortal Empress looked at Lu An and said, "Because she's absorbing your life force now."
