After I became an immortal in Uchimaki, I went from being a loser to becoming a group favorite.

Chapter 270 Fairy Sister
The rain is getting heavier.

The air inside the dilapidated temple was somewhat oppressive, but even more oppressive was the stagnant atmosphere.

Meng San moved her body stiffly, "Put me down."

Song Nan suddenly realized what was happening, walked to a relatively clean spot, and gently put the small kitten down from his arms.

As soon as it landed, Meng San's ears twitched.

“Someone’s coming,” it said.

What a careless mistake! It's all because this thing was holding me, which caused it to have a momentary lapse in judgment and not notice me.

Because of the restrictions on its spiritual power here, its spiritual power circulation is still somewhat stagnant, and it is temporarily impossible to cast advanced spells. Meng San can only follow the partial memories in her mind and transform into an ordinary-looking girl.

Tang Ling's form goes without saying, but given her previous encounter with Lu Qingfeng and others in the Ten Thousand Mountains, Xiao Hei's form probably cannot be easily displayed in front of others.

However, the form created by spiritual power is not the same as a physical body. Maintaining the form requires spiritual power and is also easy for people to recognize as a disguise.

But there's no other way right now.

Song Nan had long since transformed into an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.

This combination of a large and a small man, resembling a father and son, seems quite reasonable.

Meng San nodded inwardly. Outside the temple, people were already walking in through the mud, their clothes damp.

"This rain really comes down without warning!" The two who entered also looked like teenagers, dressed simply, but the spiritual energy flowing around them could not be missed by Meng San and his companion, who had strong spiritual senses. They could tell at a glance that they were two cultivators.

It's not unusual to encounter cultivators in the wilderness.

But as soon as the two entered, two figures, one large and one small, followed behind them.

"Daddy, there are people inside!" The girl's clear voice broke the slightly somber atmosphere.

"Keep your voice down, don't disturb others," the girl's father whispered.

"It's alright, we just came in too." The two boys greeted each other with smiles as they lit a small fire with their spiritual power to illuminate the temple. "It's fate that we met in this desolate wilderness."

The girl's father looked somewhat haggard in the firelight. He simply nodded and forced a smile before silently leading the girl to a place to sit down.

Meng San felt that the father and daughter looked somewhat familiar.

Suddenly, a loud, thunderous roar resounded, startling the girl, who cowered in the man's arms. A group of men in black entered, accompanied by the thunder.

There were about ten people, of varying heights and builds, but all dressed identically in black straw hats and black cloaks, making them look quite intimidating.

The father and daughter were talking quietly, but fell silent after the man in black entered.

The two boys didn't greet him as enthusiastically as they had before.

The group of men in black first surveyed the temple's surroundings, their gazes seemingly casually sweeping over the people inside.

They all felt uncomfortable under that scrutinizing gaze.

After observing them, the person who seemed to be the leader led the group to a place near where Meng San and the other person were, and silently took off his cloak.

Only then did Meng San get a clear look at the faces of the group.

Elder Chan.

As he was recalling the events in his mind, Song Nan's voice transmission came through his head.

Meng San felt a chill run down her spine and looked towards the group of men in black. Sure enough, she saw a slender woman in purple under the cloak.

Elder of the Beast Taming Sect of the Lingxian School – Chanyuan.

How did she end up here?
Among the group of men in black, besides Chan Yuan, there were a few others who seemed vaguely familiar; I think I've seen them somewhere before. The atmosphere in the temple seemed to grow even more silent, until a chubby figure burst in noisily from outside the door.

"Phew! This rain is so heavy, I almost couldn't see the road!"

As she spoke, she took off her already soaked cloak, revealing her fleshy, round body underneath.

In recent years, Zhao Baoshan has been gaining experience outside, but unexpectedly, he has not only failed to lose weight, but has actually gained quite a bit of weight.

Meng San never expected to run into him here, especially since he was one of the men in black.

So, although she was pleasantly surprised, she didn't dare to easily acknowledge him.

"You have magic but don't know how to create a barrier to protect yourself from the rain?" Chan Yuan rolled her eyes at him.

"A rinse with this water will cool you down!" Zhao Baoshan chuckled twice. "Unlike you, Master, I'm thick-skinned and tough. This little bit of rain is nothing to me."

As he spoke, he used his spiritual power to slowly dry his soaked cloak.

While drying his cloak, he noticed the other people in the temple and greeted them with a smile.

"I didn't expect this dilapidated temple in the middle of nowhere to be so lively."

Zhao Baoshan chuckled and looked at the two boys. "You two look unfamiliar. You're not from around here, are you?"

Perhaps because Zhao Baoshan looked kind, the two boys smiled and replied, "We are from the Qingcang Continent, and we have some business here."

"Good heavens, from the Qingcang Continent?" Zhao Baoshan's expression was exaggerated. "The Qingyun Continent is in a tense war recently. Your Qingcang military is so strong, isn't it unsafe for you to come here for no reason?"

"The demons' invasion of the human realm is a matter for the entire lower realm. How could we, Qingcang, possibly remain uninvolved?" The two youths smiled sheepishly. "However, we are here today because we do have important business to attend to."

"They already said they have their own things to do, so don't pry!" Chanyuan said disdainfully from the side.

“Master, I was just worried that these two are just like us.” Zhao Baoshan suddenly winked and made faces.

"Oh? May I ask what brings you all here?" one of the young men asked.

"We are here to seek that annihilation—"

"Shut up!"

Before Zhao Baoshan could finish speaking, one of the middle-aged men in black shouted at him to stop.

"Zhao Baoshan, I'm giving you some face because you're Elder Chanyuan's disciple, but you can't push your luck!"

"What do you mean by that, Fellow Daoist Li?" Zhao Baoshan wasn't afraid, but instead put on a wronged expression. "I didn't do anything, did I?"

"Hmph! All we did on the way here was pee and find a place to eat. I heard you were on good terms with that Tang Ling from the Ancient Banyan Garden at the Lingxian Sect. It's really bad luck to be in the same group as you!"

These words were spoken without any clear beginning or end, but everyone in the temple roughly understood them.

"Could it be that you all came here to seek out the Dream Eater because of that execution order?" one of the youths asked.

"Why are you glaring at me? I didn't say anything." Zhao Baoshan spread his hands and said to the cultivator surnamed Li.

The cultivator surnamed Li let out another cold snort. When he turned to the two teenagers, his expression softened, but he didn't answer directly. Instead, he asked, "Did you two come here for the Dream Eater?"

"That's not it." The young man didn't hide anything and said it frankly, "We came to the Azure Cloud Continent to find something, but it's not the Dream Eater."

It's not a dream about finding food; it could be about finding a magical artifact, or perhaps a person.

However, no matter what you're looking for, as long as it's not about eating dreams, asking further is pointless.

Each group of people had their own agenda and was unwilling to be honest with each other, so the temple fell silent again for a while.

In the silence, the girl suddenly asked, "Father, is the Tang Ling they're talking about the fairy sister who saved me at Xuwu Mountain?"
