In the dark night, Liu Lan chased in the direction Lu An had disappeared in. She was very powerful. After she activated her perception, she immediately understood the entire Blood Symbol Alliance and even further away. Her body shook as she hurriedly rushed out of the Blood Symbol Alliance.
When she arrived at a dark corner outside the Blood Symbol Alliance, Lu An was standing there. He did not leave. Instead, he was waiting for Liu Lan.
He knew that Liu Lan would catch up. He was not someone who would go back on his words.
When Liu Lan saw that Lu An did not leave, she finally let out a sigh of relief. She hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face and walked to Lu An's side. "When are we leaving?"
Hearing Liu Lan's hoarse voice, Lu An looked at her and said softly, "One or two days won't make a difference. Stay here for three more days. We'll leave in three days."
Hearing Lu An's words, Liu Lan was delighted. After all, she had just broken through and wanted to stay at home for a few days. However, she suddenly thought of something and asked, "You're not angry because of my father, are you? Are you going to leave me behind?"
Seeing Liu Lan's anxious expression, Lu An shook his head and said, "I said I'll take you away, so I'll definitely do it. You can rest assured."
Seeing Lu An's calm expression, Liu Lan was slightly relieved. She said, "Then, will you return to the Blood Symbol Alliance with me?"
"No." Lu An said softly, "I'll stay in an inn. We'll meet at the city's west gate in three days."
Liu Lan nodded vigorously after hearing this. She became much happier. Just as Lu An turned to leave, she said happily, "Thank you."
Lu An's body shook. He looked at Liu Lan, nodded slightly, and left.

Three days later.
In these three days, the news of Liu Lan becoming a Level 6 Heavenly Master had spread. Not only Black Wolf City, but the surrounding cities also knew. The appearance of a Level 6 Celestial Master was undoubtedly an important piece of news. Originally, after the Martial Arts Competition, the status of Black Wolf City was extremely high, and this time, it had completely raised Black Wolf City to a whole new level.
In Black Wolf City, everyone was shocked when the Blood Symbol Alliance publicly announced that they would still be on equal footing with the other two alliances. They had originally thought that they would be swallowed up or even monopolized by one alliance. Who would have thought that there would be such a turn of events? The members of the Sacrificial Blood Alliance and Iron Saber Alliance heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this. Although they didn't know how their Alliance Master had done it, this was indeed a blessing for them.
Liu Zhengtang cherished the last three days that Liu Lan was in the Blood Symbol Alliance. The Blood Symbol Alliance's celebration lasted for three days. During these three days, Liu Zhengtang put down all his affairs and focused on accompanying his daughter. However, no one gave any explanation for Vice Alliance Leader Lu's sudden disappearance. This person had simply vanished into thin air.
Anyone who mentioned Lu An would be confused. Some people even asked the higher-ups of the Blood Symbol Alliance, but they all remained silent, as if Lu An had never appeared.
However, time was always short. Three days passed in a flash. Three days later, Lu An quietly stood in a corner outside the city's western gate, quietly waiting for Liu Lan's arrival.
At this moment, Lu An, who had his head lowered, suddenly raised his head. Following that, two figures appeared in front of him. It was none other than Liu Lan and Liu Zhengtang.
Seeing Liu Zhengtang again, Lu An didn't treat him with any hostility because of what had happened three days ago. Instead, he stood up straight as usual and respectfully said, "Senior Liu."
Seeing Lu An's attitude, Liu Zhengtang took a deep breath and said, "I was too agitated three days ago. Please don't take it to heart."
"This junior doesn't dare," Lu An said.
"My daughter is going to leave with you." Liu Zhengtang looked at Lu An and said seriously, "Although she's very strong now, her experience is far from yours. I hope you can protect her well and don't let anyone bully her."
Lu An nodded and said, "Yes, this junior understands."
"Also, she has already left a teleportation formation in the Blood Symbol Alliance. I hope you can allow her to come back at least three times a year," Liu Zhengtang said seriously. "She will miss home a lot, and I will also miss my daughter a lot."
"Yes," Lu An nodded and said.
"Also, Xiao Lan's temper has been spoiled by me since she was young. I hope you won't let her suffer no matter where she goes," Liu Zhengtang said. "She has at least three servants serving her. I've already brought enough money for her, but if something really happens and she doesn't have enough money, I hope you won't be stingy. No matter how much it is, I'll pay you back double."
"Xiao Lan's personality is naturally cheerful. Although she can endure all kinds of hardships when she's with you, I hope she can make more friends. She loves to compete with others in archery and throwing stones. You have to accompany her more when you're free.
"It's already winter a few days ago, and it's very likely that it'll snow soon. I've brought her a lot of clothes, but they're not local clothes from Purple Lake City. When you arrive, you have to accompany her to the tailor shop to buy some clothes. Don't lack anything."
"Right, you have to let her come back during the New Year. I'll spend the New Year with her every year. I'll bring her to her mother's grave. I don't want her mother to see her. Otherwise, her mother will be very sad.
"Also …"
"Father!"
Liu Lan's choked voice sounded. Liu Zhengtang suddenly realized something and was stunned. He looked at Lu An and said awkwardly, "Sorry, I said too much."
Lu An looked at Liu Zhengtang and shook his head as he said, "Senior, please don't worry. Miss Liu is my good friend. I'll take good care of her and have her come back often."
Liu Zhengtang lightly breathed in and patted Lu An's shoulder as he said seriously, "I believe you're a responsible person. Don't mistreat my daughter."
Following this, Liu Zhengtang looked at his daughter and held her hand as he said seriously, "You have to take good care of yourself. No matter what happens, if you're unhappy, come home. Father will always love you."
After he finished speaking, Liu Zhengtang forcefully pulled his daughter into his embrace. After three breaths, he strode away.
"Father!" Liu Lan choked as she watched her father leave. Her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, but she did not chase after him. Instead, she watched as her father walked further and further away until he disappeared into the city gates.
Lu An looked at Liu Lan and knew that if this continued, it would be very painful for her, so he said softly, "Let's go."
After saying this, Lu An left with Liu Lan and went straight to the forest outside the Fiend Mountain.
The two of them were very strong, so they were much faster than horses when they were not tired. Soon, they arrived at the forest. At this moment, although Liu Lan was still in a bad mood, she was much better and did not feel as bad. When Lu An opened the Sacred Flame Door, a raging fire ignited. Even though Liu Lan was a Level 6 Heavenly Master, she still felt pressured by the terrifying temperature.
"Be careful of the fire. Don't touch it." Lu An looked at Liu Lan and warned her seriously, "Otherwise, even you won't be able to withstand it."
Liu Lan nodded and followed Lu An into the Sacred Flame Door.

After a few breaths of time.
In the forest a hundred miles away from Purple Lake City, a flame suddenly ignited, scaring the rabbits that were playing around and causing them to run away.
The flame opened and formed a Sacred Flame Door. Lu An and Liu Lan jumped out. Now, Lu An would not be in a sorry state when he left the Sacred Flame Door.
After landing on the ground, Liu Lan looked at her surroundings curiously. Although she was already a Level 6 Heavenly Master, she was only 28 years old. Her knowledge and experience were far from enough. Or rather, she was still the same person as before. Her personality had never changed.
"This is Purple Lake City?" Liu Lan asked curiously.
"No." Lu An shook his head slightly. After returning to Purple Lake City, he actually felt like he had returned home. He finally revealed a smile and said, "After walking out of this forest, we'll reach it by walking another hundred miles."
Liu Lan became even more curious and said, "Then let's go quickly!"
Lu An quickly left the forest with Liu Lan and arrived at the relay station on the official road. Suddenly, a spacious field of vision appeared in front of them. In the distance, a black city filled with tall buildings appeared in Liu Lan's city.
Just like Lu An, when Liu Lan saw the city in the distance for the first time, she could not control the shock on her beautiful face.
