Chapter 528 Meeting an acquaintance
"Grandfather is a registered disciple of Senior Wuchenzi. If you dare to kill grandfather, Senior Wuchenzi will definitely not let you go!" Hongru said tremblingly.
The Soul Binding beside him shook his head and sneered, "They are just nominal disciples. Even I, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, have more than a dozen nominal disciples. I'm afraid that Senior Wuchenzi has been in seclusion for hundreds of years and can't even remember your grandfather's name."
"Registering her as a nominal disciple will make this matter much easier." Bai Lan stroked Hong Ru's hair and said softly, "How could such a beautiful girl fall in love with Long Aotian?"
Hongru turned her head away from Bai Lan's hand and said angrily, "Aotian and I are in love, what does it have to do with you! If you dare to hurt Aotian in the slightest, I will kill you even if it costs me my life!"
"Oh, you really scared me... In this case, I won't kill Long Aotian. Let your grandfather die for him. What do you think?" Bai Lan said with a smile.
"You!!!" Hongru glared at Bai Lan with red eyes: "You evil villain! You are so shameless!"
Yuanying cultivators always travel very fast. Bai Lan only waited for a short while and teased Hongru before he arrived.
Along with Qianjizi came...wait, who is that!?
Why is Hanxuzi here? Could it be that Qianjizi called him to help?
"Why is your ancestor here? It's over, Bai Lan girl. If you don't want people to discover your identity as the Demon Lord, you still have time to disguise yourself..." Old Fu was also shocked.
Bai Lan was only surprised for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "...It's okay, there's no need to disguise yourself. It's only a matter of time before your identity is exposed. Ancestor Hanxu's cultivation is only in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. This time, it won't be a problem to capture him and Qianjizi together."
If it weren't for Qianjizi, her image in the eyes of Hanxuzi and others could have remained pure for a few more years.
"...Indeed, it's just that the old man has always treated you as a junior of his own righteous sect, but now the situation...hiss." Old Fu subconsciously put himself in Hanxuzi's perspective and suddenly felt a little creepy.
"As long as I am not embarrassed, the old ancestor will be embarrassed." Bai Lan's expression was calm, but he secretly notified two Nascent Soul cultivators and five Core Formation cultivators of the Yuling Sect to come to help. He would never fight hard if he could crush them.
Qianjizi spread out his spiritual sense and searched for Bai Lan's trace.
"Brother Hanxu, that thief kidnapped Ru'er to force me to show myself. Although I don't know what he's up to, I suspect he'll set up an ambush. You and I must be careful."
Hanxuzi nodded and said, "Don't worry, Cangyuan City is under the jurisdiction of my Qingyuan Sect. I know most of the Nascent Soul cultivators around here. It's not a big deal."
While the two were talking, Qianjizi also followed the power of blood and gradually found where Hongru was.
At this moment, Bai Lan was still sitting on the chair with his eyes closed, waiting for someone. There was no one behind him, but in front of him there was a table and teacups, and Hongru and several other Jindan cultivators who were tied up with soul-binding ropes were kneeling on the ground trembling.
"Ruer!!"
Qianjizi suddenly saw Hongru tied up with the spirit rope, and roared with bloodshot eyes: "Grandfather is here to save you!"
Hanxuzi on the side did not step forward, but stopped and stared at Bai Lan in the distance.
There was no trace of illusion around, and Bai Lan's cultivation was just as he had seen before, at the late Jindan stage...
Hanxuzi rubbed his eyes in disbelief: "Bai...Bai Lan?"
Bai Lan sighed slightly: "Ancestor..."
"Who is so bold as to pretend to be a cultivator of my Qingyuan Sect!!" Hanxuzi was furious. He suddenly drew out two swords from behind and was about to go forward and chop people.
"...Forget it, let's get started." Bai Lan sighed slightly, temporarily gave up explaining, and instead picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The moment Bai Lan finished speaking, several beams of light suddenly rose up from the surroundings, along with a violent wind and a sea of fire. The eighth-level killing formation, the Wind and Fire Demon Subduing Formation, suddenly rose up, surrounding Hanxuzi and Qianjizi.
The pressure of the Divine Transformation Realm also descended. Five Nascent Soul cultivators each held a formation chess piece and manipulated the formation to encircle the two people. Outside the formation, there were eight Core Formation cultivators who continuously supplied spiritual power into the formation.
Five against two, the advantage is on Bai Lan.
Moreover, with the pressure of the Spirit Transformation Stage controlling the enemy in the sky, Hanxuzi and Qianjizi could not even use their killing moves and could only run for their lives. However, they were unable to escape due to the power of the eighth-level killing formation and were forced to be beaten.
"Who are you and why do you want to kill me?!" Qianjizi no longer cared about Hongru at this moment. He ran while roaring angrily.
Bai Lan patted Hong Ru's shoulder and said with a smile: "Come, tell your grandfather why I did this."
"Because... because I wanted to kill you first, so you..." Hongru said, looking at Qianjizi struggling in the formation, she suddenly cried out: "Grandfather, run! This man is the Demon Lord of the Demon Palace, his strength is unfathomable, don't worry about me anymore! Run!"
Hanxuzi, who was dodging the wind, fire and spiritual power in the formation with Qianjizi, was now sweating profusely.
It would have been fine if Bai Lan didn't say anything, but as soon as she spoke, Han Xuzi panicked.
The tone of her voice didn't sound fake. Could this woman really be Bai Lan? But if she was Bai Lan, why would she stand with the demonic cultivator?
Could it be coercion? If it was coercion, why did she act like she was the mastermind behind it?
He originally planned to hand over the future of Qingyuan Sect to her, but now... Hanxuzi suddenly felt that the future of Qingyuan Sect was shrouded in fog.
In just two hours, the two were captured alive by five Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators and brought to Bai Lan.
Qianjizi didn't even dare to self-destruct, because Hongru was beside Bailan at the moment. If he died, Ru'er would surely die too.
Hanxuzi looked even more worried, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"You two, hand over a wisp of your soul and join my Yuling Sect, and I will spare your life."
Bai Lan raised his hand and gestured for the two to sit opposite him. He also personally poured two cups of tea for them, looking very respectful.
Hanxuzi drank the spiritual tea gloomily, his expression still miserable.
"Brother Hanxu, you dare to drink her water!" Hanxuzi's behavior scared Qianjizi.
Hanxuzi glanced at Qianjizi and curled his lips: "Heh."
Qianjizi looked away feeling guilty. If Hanxu hadn't helped him today, he wouldn't have ended up like this.
"How can we, as righteous cultivators, be coerced by you evil villains? What kind of place is the Yuling Sect? I have never heard of it..."
Qianjizi looked at Bai Lan coldly. Before he could finish his words, two residual souls of Divine Transformation cultivators appeared from behind Bai Lan, one on the left and one on the right, staring at him intently.
"What did you just say? Tell me again, have you never heard of the Yuling Sect?"
"Does the Sect Master need to destroy a few more small sects like the Corpse Refining Sect in order to make the Soul Controlling Sect famous?"
The appearance of a Divine Transformation cultivator is scary enough even without releasing any pressure.
Qianjizi stared at it for a moment, then cleared his throat after a while: "But then again..."
