Noon, in Purple Lake City.
Lu An led Liu Lan in through the main entrance. It was one thing to look at Purple Lake City from afar, but it was another thing to actually enter the city.
Every building in Purple Lake City had at least 20 floors, and every one of them was at least 20 meters tall. Some even exceeded 300 meters. In addition, almost all the buildings here were black. Standing in the middle of the city made one feel shocked from the bottom of their heart.
Liu Lan had not been to many places, and she had never seen a place like Purple Lake City. If one wanted to build a city like this, how much manpower and resources would it take?
"Are all the people here Heavenly Masters?" Liu Lan looked at the surrounding buildings and said in a daze, "Even if they are Heavenly Masters, it would not be easy for them to climb up such a tall building, right?"
"There are many Heavenly Masters, about the same as a small country, or about the same as the number of experts in the entire Southwest Region." Lu An smiled and said, "However, there are also many commoners. The reason they can climb up the tall buildings is because of the elevators and the power of crystal cores."
Hearing this, Liu Lan came to a realization, but she was still shocked. How many powerful crystal cores would be needed to operate so many tall buildings? Just this city alone was an incalculable amount of wealth.
"Where are we going next?" Liu Lan was stunned for a while before she recovered. She looked at Lu An and asked excitedly, "Are we going to find your friend or …?"
"Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion first," Lu An said with a smile, "The City Lord is my friend. She was the one who helped my friend settle down."
At this point, Lu An suddenly remembered that the current City Lord was not Beauty Yang, but Yang Mu. After thinking about it, his eyes narrowed.
Liu Lan saw the change in Lu An's eyes and suddenly asked, "What's wrong?"
Hearing this, Lu An loosened his brows and shook his head, "It's nothing. My friend will come and pick us up."
Liu Lan was stunned. Since entering the city, Lu An had not greeted anyone. Why would someone come and pick them up? Could it be that Lu An had returned to Purple Lake City three days ago?
However, the two of them didn't have to wait for long. Not long after, a woman in a purple robe walked over from a corner. She saw that this woman had a veil covering her face, but for some reason, when Liu Lan saw this woman for the first time, she felt a sense of pressure.
It was not the pressure of strength, but the pressure of appearance.
Her cold and noble temperament was natural, like an iceberg that towered into the clouds, making people feel intimidated. Although her face was covered by a veil, her silhouette was enough to make one's heart race. She attracted everyone's attention.
The tall woman walked in front of Lu An, bowed slightly, and said respectfully, "Master, you're back."
Master?
Liu Lan's body trembled. She looked at Lu An in shock. Didn't he say he was a friend? How could he be her master?
Lu An looked at Beauty Yang. Although it had been seven months, Beauty Yang's attitude had not changed at all. Lu An was already used to this kind of relationship. He said, "This is a friend I know. Her name is Liu Lan, Lan as in orchid."
Beauty Yang stood up and looked at Liu Lan. When the two women looked at each other, Liu Lan felt that she had lost.
Whether it was temperament or appearance, she lost. She lost completely.
"Hello." Her tone was completely different from when she spoke to Lu An. Beauty Yang's voice was as cold as ice, as if she was a god.
"He … Hello!" Liu Lan was obviously frightened and quickly said.
Seeing that there were many people looking over, Lu An said to Beauty Yang, "Let's find a place first. Where are we going?"
"Master, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion." Beauty Yang said respectfully.
Lu An was slightly startled and said hesitantly, "But Yang Mu …"
"She's been very busy recently." Beauty Yang said, "And she also asked me to tell master that she has already let it go. She won't keep pressuring master. She hopes that you can come back and stay here."
"…"
Lu An's heart was slightly heavy. Thinking about Yang Mu's lively and cheerful appearance, but she suddenly took over Beauty Yang's place in charge of Purple Lake City. He didn't know how she spent such a long time.
If it was before, Lu An still wouldn't go to the City Lord's Mansion. However, after Liu Lan's experience, he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion."
Three quarters of an hour later, in the City Lord's Mansion.
In a pavilion that was much taller than the other buildings, Lu An and the two girls came to a familiar room on the middle floor. This floor was where Lu An had been living before, and Lu An found that the room that originally belonged to Yang Mu was empty.
"She moved away." Beauty Yang looked at Lu An's eyes and said, "There are many things to do in Purple Lake City. She already lives in the office."
Lu An nodded and pushed open the door in front of him. Suddenly, a familiar scene came into view.
Everything was the same as a year ago.
The same layout, the same aura. It was obvious that someone had been cleaning this room, which was why it was so clean. However, what Lu An didn't know was that the person who cleaned this room was none other than Yang Mu.
After entering the room, there was only Lu An and the two girls in the room. Beauty Yang suddenly knelt down in front of Lu An and said respectfully, "Welcome back master."
Saying that, Beauty Yang took off the veil on her face. Suddenly, a beautiful face appeared in front of the two of them.
Liu Lan's expression was shocked. When she saw Beauty Yang's face clearly, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart.
She originally thought that she was very beautiful, and that there was no one more beautiful than her in the world. Even the people around her said so. However, when she saw this woman's face, she felt a kind of suppressed pain.
No wonder, no wonder Lu An didn't like her. Even his servant was so beautiful, how could he like her …
Seeing Beauty Yang's appearance, Lu An couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Get up."
Hearing this, Beauty Yang stood up and turned to look at Yang Mu. After sizing her up, she said, "It's really rare to see a Level 6 Heavenly Master at such a young age."
With that said, Liu Lan's body trembled once again! Her eyes were filled with disbelief. One must know that a Level 6 Heavenly Master could completely seal the Sky Origin Force and not let it leak out. In other words, even people of the same realm wouldn't be able to see through her strength!
However, this woman was able to see through her realm with a single glance, and she was even able to do it so casually!
"You …" You are … "
Liu Lan was so shocked that she couldn't even speak properly. Seeing this, Lu An smiled bitterly and said, "She is a Level 7 Heavenly Master."
"…"
Liu Lan's heart trembled. Her legs went soft and she took two steps back, almost falling to the ground.
She wasn't frightened by the other party's strength, but she felt an unbearable despair.
A Level 7 Heavenly Master with such an appearance. Only now did she know that Lu An had a good reason to look down on her. Thinking back to when she was a Level 3 Heavenly Master, she had thought about how she wasn't good enough for Lu An. Now that she thought about it, it was truly laughable.
Lu An looked at Liu Lan's appearance and knew what she was thinking. He smiled bitterly and explained, "Although I am her master, the relationship between the two of us is just that. There is nothing out of the ordinary. My sweetheart is someone else."
With that said, Liu Lan was shocked once again. She realized that from the beginning, one thing after another had happened that shocked her. She raised her head and looked at Lu An in disbelief. She didn't understand, with such a perfect woman, who would Lu An fall in love with?
Looking at Liu Lan's eyes, Beauty Yang finally opened her mouth and said indifferently, "The person that master likes is far more outstanding than me."
With that said, not to mention Liu Lan, even Lu An was shocked and turned to look at Beauty Yang.
He knew that Beauty Yang most likely knew about Fu Yu's background, but Beauty Yang had never mentioned anything about it in front of him. He was very surprised to hear Beauty Yang say something like this all of a sudden.
"Oh right, how are my friends now?" Lu An didn't ask, because he knew that if he didn't force Beauty Yang to say anything, Beauty Yang would definitely not say anything. Asking again would only increase his longing, so he changed the topic and asked.
"They are all very well." Beauty Yang immediately replied, "I found a Level 5 Heavenly Master to be Kong Yan's master. The Chu family's mother and daughter have also been properly arranged. As for Liu Yi, after seven months, she has already become the president of a not small Chamber of Commerce in Purple Lake City."
When he heard the first two, it was still okay. When he heard Liu Yi, Lu An couldn't help but smile. He understood Liu Yi's personality very well. She liked to make money and was even better at making money. Such a person would probably become a rich person wherever she went. Sure enough, she didn't stay idle in Purple Lake City.
"However, I feel that you should be most concerned about my daughter." Beauty Yang suddenly said.
Lu An was startled. Yang Mu was her friend, and the two of them were in a life and death situation. His heart tightened, and he looked at Beauty Yang and immediately asked, "What's wrong with her?"
Beauty Yang looked at Lu An and said seriously, "I just said that she was very busy because three months ago, a large-scale war broke out in the surrounding countries."
