Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 710: Visit Lanruo Temple Again

The sloppy monk was talking nonsense to himself again, and Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen could only pretend not to see it.

Ning Caichen and Xiaoqian looked at each other, thinking of their previous experiences, and the air suddenly became more ambiguous.

Ning Caichen was about to step forward to thank Xiaoqian, "Thank you, Miss Xiaoqian."

Before Xiaoqian could answer, the sloppy monk came over to disrupt the situation, "Okay, I will save you without asking for anything in return, just give me seven or eight thousand taels of gold as a reward."

Seeing that the atmosphere was ruined by the sloppy monk, Xiao Qian said angrily, "Monk, I'm apologizing to you, and you're trying to snatch it away."

The sloppy monk looked disillusioned with the world. "A name is just a code name. You can call me Xiaoqian, I can call me Xiaoqian, and he can call me Xiaoqian. Wild, you are too persistent."

After hearing this, Xiaoqian was speechless.

Seeing that Xiaoqian didn't say anything, the sloppy monk said to Ning Caichen, "Young man, you and the emperor are not destined to be master and disciple. Considering that you have personally protected the emperor, I will now reward you with a rare book. Kneel down and thank you."

As he said this, he reached into his arms.

"Master, you should keep it for yourself." After going through all this ordeal, Ning Caichen only hoped that the sloppy monk would stop torturing him and leave quickly, so he quickly refused.

“Hahahahahahahaha…, how can Ji refuse something that he wants to give to others?” As he said that, he took out a book from his arms and threw it to Ning Caichen.

"Well, this is..." Ning Caichen took it subconsciously and saw the words on the book clearly. It was the account book he lost the day before.

Looking up, there was no sloppy monk at the scene. Only a voice came from afar, "Remember this Buddha's name, Jiekong. Hahahahahahaha... I was originally a casual person in Wolonggang~..."

As the singing faded away, Ning Caichen finally had some time to be alone with Xiaoqian.

During the conversation, Ning Caichen learned that Xiaoqian, whom he met many times, was named "Nie Xiaoqian".

Always looking for someone who can make the Blue Devil's Tears shine.

According to legend, only two people who truly love each other can make the Blue Devil's Tears glow.

The two people who were talking about love were interrupted by the arrival of Sima Hongye who had escaped from Mei Ji.

It turned out that Sima Hongye had promised her mother that she would never mess with anyone related to the Yinyue Dynasty before she turned twenty years old.

Moreover, he had forced Mei Ji to promise not to step out of Lanruo Temple again and not to cause trouble in Nanguo Town.

He revealed Xiaoqian's identity as a demon and told Ning Caichen the difference between humans and demons.

Then, Mei Ji came and wanted to take Nie Xiaoqian away.

Ning Caichen wanted to step forward but was stopped by Sima Hongye.

Because Sima Hongye saw that Nie Xiaoqian's natal Yuandan was in Mei Ji's hands, and it was impossible for Nie Xiaoqian to be free before she got the Yuandan back.

Ning Caichen wanted to return Nie Xiaoqian's life essence pill so that she could regain her freedom.

Sima Hongye also enlightened him that he was a weak scholar who knew no martial arts. How could he possibly snatch Nie Xiaoqian's life elixir from Mei Ji?
It’s better to treat everything that happened tonight as a dream and forget it completely.

Ning Caichen understood that Sima Hongye was right. Even if he was unwilling, he had no choice but to let it go.

After getting the account book back, he went to Dongguo Town again to collect the debts.

This time, he successfully got the money. On his way home, he came to the vicinity of Lanruo Temple again.

After sitting there for a long time, he found that he could not forget Xiaoqian. He decided to go to Lanruo Temple and rescue Xiaoqian.

Ning Caichen arrived at the gate of Lanruo Temple and was about to enter.

Suddenly, I was pulled to the grass nearby by a force.

Before he could shout out, his mouth was covered by a hand.

Just as Ning Caichen was about to struggle, he heard a familiar voice in his ear, "Don't scream, it's me." The person who pulled Ning Caichen into the bushes was Sima Hongye whom he had met before.

"you……"

Sima Hongye said to Ning Caichen in a very low voice: "Don't make any noise, someone is coming."

Ning Caichen heard someone coming and looked out through the bushes curiously.

The night wind suddenly rose and the dead leaves fell.

A figure, dressed in a theatrical costume, wearing pheasant feathers on his head, a strange mask on his face, and strange gestures and movements. He exuded a strange aura and came straight to Lanruo Temple.

"That is……"

"Marshal Wuchang." Sima Hongye revealed the strange name of the man. "Since he appeared in the martial arts world five years ago, it is said that this man is dressed in strange clothes and specializes in dealing with corrupt officials who bring disaster to the martial arts world. So far, no one has seen his true face. His motives are unknown, his identity is unknown, and his whole body is full of mysteries. The only thing we know is that many evildoers in the magic world have died in his hands. His name is 'Half-Life Fengdu·Marshal Wuchang'."

Ning Caichen asked: "Why is he here?"

Sima Hongye talked about the grudge between the two, "How should I know? Marshal Wuchang's whereabouts are mysterious, and no one knows what he is going to do. I also have some grudges with him, so I followed him all the way here."

Ning Caichen couldn't help but worry about Nie Xiaoqian's safety, "Then Xiaoqian is..."

At this time, in Lanruo Temple, with lights and decorations on, a strange atmosphere arose again.

Meiji's personal maid Xiaoxue noticed something was wrong, "There's clearly no one there, so how could there be a sound?"

Xiaoxue looked around and saw Marshal Wuchang coming.

"Marshal Wuchang! The rumors are actually true!" Xiaoxue recognized the man.

In the blink of an eye, Marshal Wuchang was already in front of her.

With his strange movements, he passed her and went into Lanruo Temple.

When Xiaoxue came to her senses, she found a piece of paper stuck on her body.

"Killing people without reason. Oh no, my sister is in danger." Seeing the contents on the white paper in her hand, Xiaoxue immediately realized that Marshal Wuchang was probably coming for Mei Ji.

Mei Ji, who was sleeping, suddenly felt a murderous aura approaching.

Marshal Wuchang was seen hanging on the stone wall, taking away Nie Xiaoqian's natal elixir hanging in the paper cage.

Mei Ji had naturally heard rumors about Marshal Wuchang, "Marshal Wuchang. You are playing tricks on me. Now that you have fallen into my hands, there will no longer be Marshal Wuchang in the world after tonight."

Countless deadly spider silks were sent out, but Marshal Wuchang dodged the attack and jumped out.

Not allowing the thief to escape, Mei Ji chased after him urgently.

Xiaoxue, who rushed over, saw two figures, one in front and one behind, emerging from the well. She realized that it must be Mei Ji chasing Marshal Wuchang.

Taking advantage of the fact that Nie Xiaoqian was unattended, Xiaoxue walked into her room and wanted to let Xiaoqian leave.

As soon as I saw the door, I saw Nie Xiaoqian's expression flickering, "Xiaoxue, why are you here?"

Xiaoxue noticed someone in the dark and realized that it must be the scholar who had been with Xiaoqian the day before and had returned.

The kind-hearted Xiaoxue pretended not to know and said to Nie Xiaoqian: "You are about to marry the Black Mountain Master, and now there is chaos outside. If you take the opportunity to escape, I will not be able to bear the blame from my sister."

Nie Xiaoqian naturally understood what Xiaoxue meant and said, "Xiaoxue, you are such a nice person."

"I am a snow demon, and even my blood is cold." Xiaoxue said to Nie Xiaoqian before leaving: "If you don't change your fatal willfulness, even if you escape, you will still suffer."
