At this mont, seeing the Little Paperman, Xuan Chu’s anxious heart instantly relaxed.
If he were alone, things might be troubleso, but with Yun Ran here, they were sure to win.
After taking the dicine, the recuperated Xuan Chu managed a smile: "Where is your master now?"
The Little Paperman looked at Xuan Chu’s deathly pale face and still felt sowhat uncomfortable.
"Why don’t you rest a while before going to find my master? Your face is so white."
Xuan Chu waved his hand indifferently: "This little injury is nothing. It’s best to hurry and take to your master; too many people here with prying eyes..."
Xuan Chu didn’t say the rest of the words, but the Little Paperman understood his aning.
"The master is over there!"
The Little Paperman led the way, and Xuan Chu quickly followed.
Others were thinking about how to get a share, while Yun Ran was looking at the protective Gang Qi around the valley.
"What are you looking at?"
A familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ear, Xuan Chu was already standing beside Yun Ran, his eyes following Yun Ran’s gaze.
Yun Ran turned his head and saw Xuan Chu’s sowhat pale face, his heart suddenly skipping a beat.
Blurted out: "Oh my, why do you look like this ghost!"
Those unaware would probably think Xuan Chu had been sucked dry of his Primordial Energy by sothing dirty.
Silently, Xuan Chu took out the dicine bottle and tilted his head to finish the remaining half of the dicine.
The strange looks from others didn’t bother Xuan Chu, but being stared at by Yun Ran made him feel his face burning.
"Dragon Spirit and I have already reached the General Association of the Xuan Master Association. Sensing the anomaly here, with limited ti, I could only use the Forbidden Technique of Heavenly Dao Village, burning half of my Essence Blood."
When Xuan Chu said this, his tone was casual, as if burning half of his Essence Blood was no big deal.
Yun Ran: ...
Now she finally believed what Junior Master said before, don’t let the Heavenly Dao Village people fool you with their harmless appearance.
Actually, the more harmless they seem, the more crazy they are at heart, willing to pay any price for what they believe in.
That’s half of the Essence Blood, in other words, half your life is gone.
Yet this person looks so calm and indifferent.
Yun Ran couldn’t help but shiver, tsk tsk tsk, can’t provoke such ruthless people.
Xuan Chu didn’t know he was seen as ruthless in Yun Ran’s eyes. In truth, he also thought Yun Ran was equally ruthless; they were just evenly matched.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have beco close friends.
Xuan Chu, thinking he had explained clearly, turned to the next topic.
"What were you looking at just now? Is there sothing wrong with that valley?"
Talking business, Yun Ran’s wandering thoughts imdiately returned to focus.
"Didn’t you notice the protective Gang Qi in that valley feels sowhat familiar?"
Xuan Chu’s earlier wariness had been focused on others, but with Yun Ran here, he could spare so attention here.
The valley’s protective Gang Qi didn’t seem problematic at first glance, but the terrain of that valley seed vaguely familiar to him.
"This valley looks sowhat like the place where you captured many Fire Essences before?"
Xuan Chu then thought, clearly Er Dan still needs a long period to hatch...
"Could it be, originally there was sothing in this valley... perhaps favorable for Er Dan, hastening the ti for Er Dan to hatch?"
Yun Ran swiftly pasted dozens of enhanced Ignore Talismans onto himself.
"You keep watch here; I’ll go check over there!"
This familiar valley, the familiar protective Gang Wind, and the tily hatching of Er Dan...
Yun Ran was now 80% sure all this had been set up long ago by Elder Qing Yangzi and the others.
But what’s the reason for doing all this? Does the ti when Er Dan hatches really matter?
Also, these things probably aren’t particularly secretive, so why not inform her beforehand?
Causing her so much effort to rush here and also consuming a lot of brain cells to uncover the secrets.
One mont Xuan Chu was about to answer Yun Ran, the next mont he was looking around suspiciously, forgetting what he wanted to say.
But the Little Paperman continued to stick closely to Xuan Chu.
Seeing Xuan Chu’s expression, kindly patted Xuan Chu on the shoulder.
"The enhanced Ignore Talismans my master made have improved a lot in effectiveness."
Other Ignore Talismans rely make people subconsciously overlook soone, but don’t affect more.
But now, the enhanced Ignore Talismans on Yun Ran even made soone like Xuan Chu forget Yun Ran’s presence entirely.
Xuan Chu: ...
So, he’s the only one embarrassed.
Yet Xuan Chu dutifully began monitoring everything around, at least figuring out the identities of these people before Yun Ran returns.
Wearing enhanced Ignore Talismans, Yun Ran moved through the crowd without drawing any attention.
Near the valley entrance, dozens of people had gathered, their identities clearly more significant than those on the periphery.
"This valley belongs to our territory range; naturally, we should go in first!"
"Nonsense! This place is evidently unclaid territory, and besides, we discovered it first. Have you forgotten Xuan Sect’s ’first co, first served’ rule?"
"Alright, everyone stop arguing. Right now, the valley is clearly protected by a strong Gang Qi; we can’t get in. Is arguing about this useful?"
"Yes, our priority is to find a way in, and once we get the treasures inside, we can sit down and discuss it."
...
Yun Ran rolled her eyes at those people arguing over the spoils.
With her there, would anyone else get a share? Truly amusing!
On the ground near the valley entrance were dry bloodstains, indicating the previous attempt to force entry ended badly.
Seeing the predecessors’ fate, Yun Ran beca much more cautious.
She pasted a lot more Defense Talismans onto herself before carefully reaching out to touch the protective Gang Qi.
The anticipated attack did not occur; instead of bouncing Yun Ran away, the protective Gang Qi felt a bit springy to the touch.
"Hmm, feels quite nice."
Yun Ran’s courage grew significantly as she slowly approached the Gang Qi.
But as Yun Ran’s body passed through the Gang Qi, all the talisman paper on her instantly lost effectiveness.
