Senior Lin is truly kind. Along the way, he gave confidence and encouragement to the bullied children, and many of them gave up their suicidal thoughts, deciding to continue living, cultivate diligently, and kill more people from the danger triangle in the future.
Qiu Qingzi was also surprised to hear this. She pulled Wen Qianyi to sit down, and the two held hands like sisters, chatting casually: "Have you found out about this Senior Lin's background? You know what I'm worried about."
Although our Linghua Academy is undergoing reforms and starting to admit men, suddenly bringing in an unknown Nirvana Realm expert from the dangerous triangle area, even if he saved us, I fear it would be like inviting a wolf into the house, potentially causing even greater losses for Linghua Academy.”
Qiu Qingzi's concerns were not unfounded. Linghua Academy had always been a den of women, with all teachers and students being female and no men. Its resources and foundation were also inferior to those of the other academies. In addition, it could only enroll women, and its academic performance was declining day by day. Even the commerce in Linghua City was not as prosperous as that of other academies. If this continued, it was not impossible for Linghua Academy to eventually decline completely and be replaced.
The dean could only change the original intention of Linghua Academy and begin a major overhaul. This had not been announced to the public yet; only the academy's senior management knew about it.
Wen Qianyi knew Qiu Qingzi's worries. Thinking of what Lin Ran had said before, and their conversation on the road afterwards, she expressed her feelings: "I don't think Senior Lin is that kind of person. Moreover, Senior Lin told me that he actually comes from the Li Dynasty and is the patriarch of a small family there."
He's just out here for training, and is temporarily staying in the Danger Triangle area because of some business. He's long wanted to live within the sphere of influence of the five major academies, and it seems there are even some junior members of his family here to cultivate at our academy.
"Oh, I'll check when I get back to the academy. People from a small Lin family in the Li Dynasty are easy to find. Okay, Qianyi, come back to the academy with me. I still need to take you to see your sister. She's so worried about me!" Qiu Qingzi patted Wen Qianyi's hand with a sigh of relief.
She rushed there as soon as she received the news, but she didn't expect that something bad would still happen. If something had really happened to Qianyi, she would have had a hard time forgiving herself. She should have known better than to let Qianyi lead the team in the first place.
Wen Qianyi lowered her head shyly and said softly, "Sister Qiu, I might have to go back to see my sister a little later. I promised my senior that I would go back to the Danger Triangle with him. He has some things to do there and he needs me."
Haruko Oka: ?
"Wen Qianyi, are you stupid? You're going back to the dangerous triangle again, and with a man you've only known for a short time. Aren't you afraid of dying?"
"Let him go back on his own. What are you going to do with him? Who knows if he'll just take advantage of you? Don't you know how beautiful you are, how great your figure is, and how attractive you are to men? I won't allow you to go!"
Qiu Qingzi was furious with Wen Qianyi. Had she been bewitched? Foolishly following someone back to the dangerous triangle area, to that godforsaken place, she shouted until her throat was hoarse, but no one paid any attention.
Hearing her sister Qiu's words, even though they were both women, Wen Qianyi still blushed a little at such blunt remarks. She whispered in defense, "Senior Lin, you can't be right. He has a very good impression on me!"
Wen Qianyi wouldn't say she had a perfect liking for Lin Ran, but her first impression of Lin Ran was very positive. Especially after listening to what Lin Ran and the female students said along the way, she felt that Lin Ran was a very capable senior who could say so many reasonable things.
"you…"
Qiu Qingzi was so angry she could hardly breathe. She slammed her hand on the table and turned to leave, but just as she was about to go out, she tossed a silver spatial scroll to Wen Qianyi and then slammed the door shut.
Wen Qianyi looked at the silver scroll in her hand. She naturally recognized it as a treasure for escaping—a spatial scroll. She hadn't expected Sister Qiu to give it to her. Her heart was filled with warmth. When she returned to the academy, she would definitely thank Sister Qiu properly.
……
Back to the present, Lin Ran and Wen Qianyi are traveling through the sky. The weather is not good today; the sky is overcast and gloomy, as if a mountain is about to press down.
"Elder Wen, thank you for your trouble. You still have to accompany me on this journey!" Lin Ran turned around and looked at Wen Qianyi during the flight.
Wen Qianyi smoothed the stray strands of hair from her forehead and smiled faintly, "It's nothing. Did Young Master Lin forget anything when he went back to that mountain forest?"
"Yes, the reason I called you along is to see if you can save someone!" Lin Ran said with a wry smile.
"Rescue?"
Wen Qianyi was stunned for a moment, and she could hear the bitterness in Lin Ran's words. It seemed that this person was not just anyone who could be saved.
“Since Elder Wen possesses the flames listed on the Heavenly Fire Ranking, he should know about fire poison, right?” Lin Ran said.
"Fire poison?"
Wen Qianyi frowned, but when Lin Ran mentioned the crimson, violent energy floating in the air in the magma world and underground volcanoes, she suddenly understood and said, "Senior Lin, that's a fitting description. Those things are indeed like poison."
Once inhaled, it's like a persistent, insidious infection, because it's mixed with spiritual energy and difficult to remove. Directly inhaling it, especially in large quantities, will cause that energy to accumulate within the body, continuously damaging it and affecting both mind and body. It will make you irritable, moody, and exhibit various abnormalities. Later, it will cause your body to become extremely hot and red, endangering your life.
This guy is truly a professional. That little bitch is currently in the late stage of the Fire Poisoning stage. I don't know how he did it, he just got there in one step.
"If it's in the later stages, are there any ways to treat it?" Lin Ran couldn't help but ask.
"Ah, post-production?"
Wen Qianyi was stunned. She had seen people in the late stage of fire poison before, but they all died quickly from exploding bodies. Was she sure that if they rushed there now, the person would still be alive?
"Oh, Elder Wen, don't worry. I used the power of extreme ice to greatly alleviate her condition. There will definitely be time to rescue her!" Lin Ran quickly said.
"Senior is truly amazing. Those who are in the late stage of fire poison don't live long; they almost all die from their bodies exploding. Senior's idea of using the power of extreme ice to counteract that fire poison is indeed a very powerful method!" Wen Qianyi praised.
Lin Ran was a little embarrassed by all the praise. He realized that his younger sister really knew how to talk, and she kept praising him unintentionally, which made him a little arrogant.
The two hurriedly returned to the forest. Lin Ran led Wen Qianyi through the forest, winding their way until they reached the end of a mountain stream. There was a crevice in the valley there. As Lin Ran prepared to crawl through, Wen Qianyi hesitated for a moment, looking at the crevice, and asked, "Senior, is it really possible to crawl through?"
"Of course you can! It's a bit narrow, but even a strong guy like me can squeeze in. You're so slim, you'll definitely be able to!" Lin Ran said casually, but regretted it as soon as she said it. Seeing the blush on Wen Qianyi's face, she quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "I... never mind, just come with me. Take your time coming in. There's plenty of room!"
"Ok!"
Wen Qianyi brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. She felt her face getting hot, and her mind started racing: "How did the senior know about my figure? Could it be because of my clothes during the battle... Ah, that would be so embarrassing!"
Lin Ran had no idea what Wen Qianyi was thinking. He only knew that his flirtatious remark earlier was a little embarrassing, and he needed to correct this bad habit.
Just as the two were lost in their own thoughts, a gasp came from behind.
"oops!"
"Elder Wen, what's wrong?" Lin Ran subconsciously turned her head to look behind her, and couldn't help but lean back slightly. Her pupils suddenly contracted, and a sentence echoed in her mind.
"So it really is true that small branches can bear large fruits!"
……
Chapter Ninety-Four: Mu Shishuang's Situation
Wen Qianyi felt incredibly embarrassed. She hadn't expected that the narrow passage would trap her upper body like this. Now, Senior Lin had seen her in such a shameful state.
Lin Ran glanced at it a few times, then turned around and said seriously, "I can use my spiritual power to slightly damage that pass. I'll continue forward now!"
After saying that, Lin Ran continued forward. Wen Qianyi blushed even more when she heard Lin Ran's words. Fortunately, the passage was very dark, which became her cover.
Wen Qianyi leaned back slightly, pressing her right hand against her chest, and gently passed the opening. She usually felt that it was too prominent and didn't look good in clothes, so she used her belt to weigh it down a little. She didn't expect it to be so embarrassing. After calming down, Wen Qianyi quickly followed Lin Ran's steps.
After an unknown amount of time, the space suddenly changed, and a bright light appeared ahead. When Wen Qianyi followed Lin Ran into the light, she unexpectedly stepped into a shallow puddle, and a fresh, natural scent filled her nostrils.
Looking at the scenery before her, Wen Qianyi was surprised to find such a magical space at the end of the mountain stream. There was a large and beautiful sea of flowers. A gentle breeze would sometimes blow, and the flowers would sway and dance with the wind, while the fragrance of the flowers was refreshing.
In the center of the sea of flowers, there are two bamboo houses, and everything here feels like a beautiful poem or painting.
"What a beautiful place!" Wen Qianyi exclaimed sincerely.
"Haha, I put a lot of thought into this. Come with me!" Lin Ran said with a smile.
The two walked towards the bamboo house in the sea of flowers. Lin Ran led Wen Qianyi straight into the bamboo house on the left. As soon as Wen Qianyi entered the bamboo house, the temperature dropped several degrees, as if she had entered an ice cellar.
"This is…"
Wen Qianyi looked at the center of the bamboo house. In the center of the bamboo house was an item, which turned out to be a nearly transparent coffin. Inside the coffin was a person, whose whole body was red, which did indeed look like the symptoms of the late stage of fire poison.
"Is this the person Senior Lin wants me to save?" Wen Qianyi asked, looking at Lin Ran.
Lin Ran nodded and pushed the coffin open a crack so that Wen Qianyi could see what was inside.
Wen Qianyi walked to Lin Ran's side, squatted down and looked at the situation inside the coffin. The white mist that kept rising from the coffin was extremely cold. This coffin seemed to have not only extreme cold power, but also some spatial power, as well as power that Wen Qianyi could not understand.
She thought to herself, "This coffin must be a creation of heaven and earth; otherwise, it wouldn't be able to keep a late-stage fire poison expert alive."
She continued to observe, and there was still a woman in the coffin, seemingly only wearing a black robe. Her exposed skin was mostly bright red, and when she reached out to touch it, she was met with an astonishingly hot response.
She probed the other person's body with her soul power and was amazed by the depth of the fire poison accumulated in the other person's body. The unusual structure of the body compared to that of ordinary people also made Wen Qianyi feel a little strange, but she did not think too much about it.
After the examination, Wen Qianyi looked at Lin Ran and found that Lin Ran had already walked outside the bamboo house at some point. She couldn't help but stand up and walk to Lin Ran's side. Before she could speak, Lin Ran asked first, "Can it be saved?"
"Yes, but it's very difficult!"
Wen Qianyi recalled the situation she had investigated and analyzed it seriously: "The situation inside her body is more terrifying than I imagined. The fire poison has already endangered her heart meridian and is almost deeply rooted throughout her body. To expel it, we must take a gradual approach."
"Take an ice-attribute elixir to suppress the internal condition, then apply a fire-attribute elixir externally, using poison to fight poison. Finally, use my Azure Dragon Flame as a trigger to force out the fire poison from within."
"How long will it take?" Lin Ran's brows furrowed even more.
“It will take three years to completely eradicate it!” Wen Qianyi said.
Actually, this is a conservative answer. It's based on the assumption that there won't be too many surprises and everything goes smoothly, so it will take three years.
If there were many problems, it would have taken much longer than three years. But what Wen Qianyi was even more curious about was who the person inside was that could make her senior go to such great lengths to save her.
When Lin Ran heard that it would take three years, he almost fainted. He must have encountered some terrible fate to be saved by this guy.
Wen Qianyi tilted her head to look at Lin Ran. Seeing Lin Ran's pained expression, she hesitated for a while before cautiously asking, "Senior, is that person very important to you?"
“That’s my enemy!” Lin Ran sighed and said.
"what?"
Wen Qianyi was taken aback by this answer and asked, utterly bewildered, "Save...save the enemy?"
"You must think I'm weird, right?" Lin Ran looked at Wen Qianyi, smiled bitterly, and explained, "She almost killed me before, but she saved my life. I don't know if she counts as my savior. But when I found out later that she was actually my wife's sister, I really... sigh!"
Wen Qianyi: !
What shocked Wen Qianyi even more was that Lin Ran actually had a wife. She had previously... Quickly banishing the jumbled thoughts from her mind, Wen Qianyi subconsciously asked, "Does your wife know about these things?"
"she?"
Lin Ran paused, as if she had thought of something interesting, and couldn't help but say, "Of course you don't know. I don't even know where my wife is from. You just examined that little stinky... sister-in-law inside, so you should know that her body is different from ours!"
Wen Qianyi nodded. That was indeed the case. That strange body structure was not something a normal human should have.
"They are not human, but an ancient race. I'm telling you this because I'm going to be in your way for a long time to come."
My wife is also from an ancient race. After she left, we never heard from her again. Then she ran into that guy. The reason I saved her was not only because I didn't want her to be sad, but also because I wanted to know how she was doing. It's been over twenty years since we last saw each other. You know, the difference between ancient races and ordinary humans like me is huge... huge..."
Lin Ran became somewhat distressed as he spoke. He just wanted to know information about that silly woman, but why was it so difficult? If he had been stronger back then, perhaps he could have challenged the Spirit Clan, and things wouldn't be like this now. Strength, it all comes down to strength!
Wen Qianyi never expected to stumble upon such a shocking piece of gossip. Of course, she knew about ancient races, which were only recorded in ancient books. She never imagined that her senior's wife was from there. This was incredible!
"Senior, I will definitely do my best to save your sister-in-law so that you can know news of your wife!" Wen Qianyi said confidently, waving her little fist.
Listening to Wen Qianyi's words, Lin Ran's eyes twitched slightly, and she couldn't help but think, "I suddenly don't want to save this stinky woman like this anymore. What if she tortures me again after I save her? I can't escape anyway, damn it!"
"Is there a method to seal people, one that can even seal people in the Undying Realm?" Lin Ran asked Wen Qianyi curiously.
"Where would I find such a thing, senior? If I knew such a method, how could I still be just a minor elder at Linghua Academy!" Wen Qianyi said with a smile.
Lin Ran: Sent!
He could only ask Wen Qianyi to use some methods, not to try so hard to save her, so that he could at least have a slightly normal conversation with this crazy woman. Recalling the little bitch's previous behavior, Lin Ran wanted to take this opportunity to teach this hateful guy a lesson.
