Chapter 1028 Self-reliance
Xiao He could only sigh, but he knew that Fairy Ranxi was telling the truth. After composing himself, he spoke:

"Fairy, how should I cooperate with you?"

Yun Xi waved his hand and said:
"No rush, let's wait until my helper breaks through before we act."

"Yes, fairy."

"Find a cultivation room to rest on your own. I will call you when the time is right."

Xiao He agreed without any objection, because meeting Ran Xi had given him back his backbone. As long as he was alive, the Fan family would not harm his sister. Even if they wanted to eliminate the two siblings who knew about the situation, they would have to wait until he brought the Blue Hat Phantom Fungus back. Therefore, he had to remain calm and patiently wait for the right opportunity.

After dismissing Xiao He, Yun Xi took Dian Dian and Li Li out of the magic room. She wanted to see the progress of Meng Lan Jun's fusion with the essence crystal.

Lili wagged her tail and asked:

"Fairy, what do you plan to do? Should we just storm the Fan family?"

Dian Dian also peeked out from Yun Xi's collar, her black bean eyes darting around as she said:

“Master, this is too risky. We are not familiar with the Fan family’s background. If there are high-level immortals in their family, you will be courting death if you go there rashly.”

Yunxi smiled and said:

“This matter concerns an evil immortal. I, a mere Grand Luo Golden Immortal, am not capable of confronting an entire clan. Naturally, I must seek external assistance.”

Lili blinked her dark grape-like eyes and said:

"Fairy, do you have connections in the Immortal Realm as well?"

Yun Xi thought for a moment and said:

"There is a senior I've long admired, but we've never met. I'll try to contact him."

Dian Dian twitched her ears and asked again:
"Master, can this person be trusted?"

“He’s reliable; he’s helped me a lot before.”

The figure of the person and two pets quickly disappeared into the depths of the oasis, heading straight for the safe place chosen by Menglanjun.

Yunxi stopped in her tracks after smelling a faint fragrance of Dream Orchid. She casually flicked a small purple dot of light in a certain direction. The rice-grain-sized dot of light disappeared automatically after touching a barrier.

Then Yunxi patiently waited, holding Lili in her arms. A quarter of an hour later, the barrier disappeared, and Menglanjun, still exuding an imposing aura, approached Yunxi, frowning as she asked:
"Ranxi, has something happened?"

Yunxi looked at the spirited Menglanjun and smiled slightly:

“A visitor has arrived. Their purpose is to take away the Blue Hat Illusion Fungus, but this person is an old acquaintance of mine in the cultivation world. Moreover, he came here because he was threatened by the Fan family. He told me about his experiences, so I had to interrupt you from refining that crystal.”

Upon hearing Yunxi's explanation, a cold glint flashed across Menglanjun's androgynous face, and she said directly:

"It was because the evil immortal saw that the Blue Hat Illusionary Fungus had not appeared in the world for a long time that he guessed that there was a problem with the arrangements here, so he sent people in to investigate the truth."

Yun Xi nodded and said:
"Yes, the evil immortal even instructed the immortal family he secretly supported to come forward in order not to expose himself. However, coincidentally, I met with a disciple of the Fan family, who was supported by the evil immortal, before entering the Mengxia Mountain Range."

At the time, I noticed something was wrong with the cultivation method he practiced; it wasn't a legitimate Taoist practice. However, I had only met him once and didn't want to investigate further. I never expected that I would have a second encounter with the Fan family in this way.

Menglan understood, and then asked:

"You interrupted my refining of the Blue-Cap Phantom Fungus's essence crystal, did you already have a plan?"

Yunxi patted Lili's head and said:

"I plan to go with you to the Fan family to investigate whether they have become puppets of the evil immortals. If it's just a single member of the Fan family being manipulated, then we'll only target the culprit. But if the entire family is involved, then we'll have to join forces with the immortals of the Central Region to eliminate this cancer from within." Meng Lanjun reacted quickly, her eyes gleaming.
"You want me to impersonate Blue Hat Phantom?"

Yunxi narrowed her eyes and said:
"Yes, with Lan Jun's outstanding temperament and eighth-level cultivation, plus the cover of the Blue Hat Illusionary Fungus Crystal, she will definitely be able to deceive the Fan family."

Meng Lanjun smoothed his colorful fairy robe, a little smug, but he didn't agree just because of Yun Xi's few words. He simply retorted:
"I haven't broken through to the eighth rank yet, so it's a bit premature for you to say that."

Yunxi smiled and said:

"No, you're about to break through, and I've already prepared the defensive array."

Meng Lanjun had no choice but to compromise, considering that she would need Yun Xi's help to leave this place:
"I understand what you mean. You'll retain a trace of the Blue Hat Phantom Fungus's aura to smoothly enter the Fan family you mentioned. But you're a human cultivator, so how will you disguise yourself?"

Yunxi coughed lightly and said:

“I remember that you strangled ‘Crispy White’. Her essence should still be there, right? Could you lend it to me so that I can have a legitimate identity to enter the Fan family with you?”

After saying that, she flipped her hand and handed a fifth-grade immortal composite defensive array plate to Meng Lanjun; this was the rent.

Meng Lanjun looked at the array plate that was pushed in front of him and couldn't refuse. Since it concerned breaking through the lightning tribulation, he naturally wouldn't mind putting on several layers of defense. He neatly accepted the array plate and handed a white crystal the size of a marble to Yunxi.

After Yunxi accepted the essence crystals, she explained her plans:

"Lan Jun, we'll leave here when you break through. Once you've survived the tribulation, you'll be at the eighth rank. I'll contact the helpers in the Immortal Realm beforehand, and then we'll go directly to the Fan family with Xiao He. Once we get there, we'll see what happens."

Menglan nodded and said:

"Actually, if you hadn't interrupted me, I would have broken through in the next day or two, and you would definitely have been able to sense it then."

Yunxi smiled apologetically and turned to leave.

Meng Lanjun stared at the direction where Ranxi disappeared for a long time before returning to the safe location she had found to continue her breakthrough.

After returning to the Dharma House, Yunxi used her divine sense to enter the space and logged into the space chat group after a long absence.

Before she even had a chance to say hello to everyone, "Star Trek" contacted her.

"Little Yunyan, it's been so long since you've shown your face. What have you been busy with lately?"

Yun Xi replied:

"I've been busy learning new skills lately, so I've been in seclusion for a long time. When I came out, I encountered a little trouble."

Star Trek: "Need help?"

"I'd like to exchange some Hong Energy Blocks and high-grade military-grade repair fluid, the more the better. What do you need?"

Star Trek: "You're so straightforward. The Nebula Flower plant we swapped with you before had a significant drop in activity. Although we've already extracted its essence, military researchers told us that the longer the Nebula Flower survives, the greater its value."

Yunxi instantly understood the meaning of "Star Trek." What the other party needed was the energy to keep the Nebula Flower alive, which required Immortal Stones. However, Immortal Stones shouldn't exist in the interstellar era, so after considering it carefully, she replied:

“I have advanced nutrient solution for cultivating Nebula Flowers. I can prepare ten tubes for you to ensure that the Nebula Flowers survive. However, I cannot guarantee how long they will survive because our energy fields are different.”

Star Trek: "I understand. I'll go and request military-grade high-level repair fluid and Hong energy blocks right now. I'll contact you in a bit."
