Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan furrowed his brow and gave the woman in front of him a deep look.
In Lu Xuan’s room, the candlelight was bright, illuminating the entire room as if it were dayti.
Lu Xuan thought for a mont and decided to let Li Yanran into his room.
She had sothing to discuss with him, and coincidentally, he had so questions in his heart that needed answers.
Li Yanran had clearly dressed up for the occasion.
She wore an elegant sky-blue silk dress that complented her slender figure, her hair gently tied up with a few strands falling over her shoulders.
As she walked in gracefully, a subtle fragrance filled the room, intertwining with the warmth of the candlelight.
Lu Xuan calmly walked to the table and directly sat in the chair.
Seeing this, Li Yanran also took a seat opposite Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan made his way to the sandalwood table, his clothes fluttering as he seated himself.
Li Yanran, understanding the gesture, gracefully sat down opposite him.
"What is it?"
Lu Xuan’s gaze was sharp, looking straight into the other’s eyes. Such an unabashed stare made Li Yanran’s heart quiver slightly.
Under Lu Xuan’s gaze, Li Yanran felt a strange sensation in her heart.
However, she didn’t dwell on it for long and directly stated her purpose for being there.
"May I ask, did you kill the White Lotus Blood Infant yesterday?"
"Yes!"
Lu Xuan answered without hesitation, with no intent to hide it.
Ever since breaking through to the Inner Qi Realm, he no longer hid his strength like before.
That’s also why he acted without reservation when encountering the White Lotus Blood Infant in the mountain village.
As soone in the Inner Qi Realm, his strength was unparalleled, and he could go anywhere in the world!
Upon hearing this, Li Yanran’s lips parted slightly, a look of shock appearing in her bright eyes.
Under the bright candlelight, her beautiful face montarily froze, revealing a rare touch of innocence.
At least, that’s how it appeared to Lu Xuan.
Li Yanran’s heart was turbulent, and finally, she looked at Lu Xuan with disbelief.
If the information from Chen Shi was correct, the other party was rely a twenty-year-old man.
This makes him five years younger than her, yet possessing such formidable strength to slay the bizarre creature like the White Lotus Blood Infant.
Li Yanran, proud of her bloodline from a great family, had an extraordinary talent for martial arts since childhood, with countless cultivation resources.
This allowed her to reach the pinnacle of the Blood Refining Realm at the age of twenty-five.
But for soone to easily kill a White Lotus Blood Infant, it must have been soone who surpassed the Blood Refining Realm.
Twenty years old! An expert in the Inner Qi Realm!
A place flashed in Li Yanran’s mind; except for that place, such a peerless genius was unheard of anywhere else.
Especially not in this backwater county town.
"Are you an expert in the Inner Qi Realm?"
Li Yanran couldn’t help but softly ask, her voice as small as a mosquito’s.
This ti, Lu Xuan did not answer Li Yanran’s question but sat silently without speaking, his expression calm and tranquil.
Even though Lu Xuan did not answer, Li Yanran already knew the answer in her heart.
The other party was indeed an expert in the Inner Qi Realm, like those peerless geniuses from that place, with martial talent that shines through the ages.
And that place was the center of the Great Xia Dynasty, where the Emperor resided, the Heavenly Capital!
Li Yanran’s family was also in the Heavenly Capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.
As Li Yanran was in a daze, Lu Xuan finally spoke softly: "Since I have answered your question."
"Then it’s your turn to answer so of my questions."
Before Li Yanran could speak, Lu Xuan started voicing his questions.
"Do you know anything about martial arts realms above the Inner Qi Realm?"
"You saved my life, you can just call Yanran. I wonder what your esteed na is..."
Li Yanran intended to get closer to Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan gave her a peculiar look and said, "You could find out where I live but not know my na?"
"Miss Yanran."
Upon hearing Lu Xuan call her by na, Li Yanran’s smile beca even brighter.
Even Lu Xuan was montarily stunned by this, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Mr. Xuan, being in a small place like Qingyun County and not knowing information above the Inner Qi Realm is understandable."
"The realms above the Inner Qi Realm are the Outer Gang Realm and the Divine Mansion Realm!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan murmured, "Outer Gang Realm? Divine Mansion Realm?"
"Yes, Mr. Xuan."
"Outer Gang Realm Grandmaster!"
"Divine Mansion Realm True Person!"
Following this, Li Yanran spared no detail in sharing all she knew.
An Outer Gang Realm Grandmaster cultivates the heavenly energy in their body, which is Inner Qi.
When Inner Qi is refined to perfection, it condenses into Gang Qi, and the Gang Yuan manifests.
At that ti, the Gang Yuan in the body can be freely released, defending against enemies even a thousand yards away.
As for information on the Divine Mansion Realm.
Li Yanran wasn’t very clear; it seed those in that realm rarely appeared before the world.
All she knew was that they opened the Divine Mansion within, storing heavenly power within it, every move carrying the montum of the heavens, with mysterious and unfathomable power.
The Divine Mansion Realm, huh?
Lu Xuan’s eyes were filled with yearning, and his self-satisfaction from recently advancing to the Inner Qi Realm disappeared.
After pondering a mont, Lu Xuan spoke again, still having so critical questions.
"Miss Yanran, do you know about the Pure World White Lotus Sect or the White Lotus Blood Infant?"
"Or any naturally existing extraordinary phenona, mutated beasts?"
As soon as Lu Xuan finished speaking, Li Yanran didn’t answer as readily as before but adopted a cautious deanor.
Li Yanran hesitated for a mont before slowly speaking: "Mr. Xuan, the information on the Pure World White Lotus Sect is sowhat exclusive, which even I do not fully understand."
"All I know is that whenever anything related to the Pure World White Lotus Sect appears, the Profound Bird Guard will stop at nothing to eradicate it."
"And those extraordinary phenona and mutated beasts existing between heaven and earth are also why our Profound Bird Guard exists."
"They are beings influenced by heavenly power, extraordinary and bizarre, even immortal."
"Immortal?"
Li Yanran’s words reminded Lu Xuan of the mysterious black shadow in Liugou Village.
It seems his intuition was right; that filthy thing was really not dead!
Seeing Lu Xuan’s serious expression, Li Yanran continued.
"It’s not truly immortal. It’s said that those extraordinary phenona can be completely erased by a True Person of the Divine Mansion Realm."
"Though it’s uncertain if this legend is true."
Can a True Person of the Divine Mansion Realm erase the existence of these filthy things?
Lu Xuan did not speak further, seemingly absorbing everything Li Yanran had said.
"Mr. Xuan, this is my identity token."
"If you want to know more, you can only go to the Profound Bird Guard in the prefecture. The archives there contain many unknown pieces of information.
At that ti, you can use this token to find ."
A blue token, the size of half a palm, was handed to Lu Xuan, with a small pale pink sachet hanging below.
After a deep look, Lu Xuan took the token as Li Yanran looked on with anticipation.
The Profound Bird Guard, huh?
It seems it’s ti for him to leave Qingyun County!
Lu Xuan silently watched Li Yanran’s departing figure, a mysterious light flickering in his deep, dark pupils.
Early the next morning!
Lu Xuan set off for his uncle Liang Shanhai’s residence, as his ti in Qingyun County was running short.
anwhile, outside the Lu Family Pharmacy, unexpected guests arrived.
"Rember what Mr. Jia instructed. If any of you screw this up, you know the consequences."
