You were made to take the blame and go to jail, but you weren't made a master of both medicine

After arriving home, Qin Ran began practicing the Ten Thousand Buddha Palm.

He needs to speed up his cultivation recently.

The cultivation session ended at noon on the second day.

Qin Ran went downstairs, ate something quickly, and then went out.

He went to the Chu Group.

Yesterday's phone call from Chu Jindong made him feel that something was very wrong.

Qin Ran prepared to go over and see what was going on.

After meeting Chu Qingcheng, the two started chatting.

"You've come at the right time. I was just looking for you. Please have a seat," Chu Qingcheng said.

"Your dad called me yesterday and told me that we can't get engaged yet. Sun Qing and your grandfather just passed away not long ago, and it's not appropriate for the Chu family to hold a wedding at this time," Qin Ran said, looking at Chu Qingcheng.

"So he already told you, and he also told me, that this is not the right time for the Chu family to hold a wedding."

"In that case, how do you solve the problem you're facing? How do you deal with those people on the board?"

"My dad has already come up with a solution." Chu Qingcheng lowered her head and spoke in a very low voice.

"What method?"

"Xie Huaili is preparing to use the Xie family's influence to take over the Chu Group. To put it simply, the Chu Group and the Xie family will form a long-term strategic business partnership."

Qin Ran smiled. He knew what was going on when Chu Qingcheng said that.

Without a doubt, Xie Huaili must have come to see Chu Jindong.

He was the one who suggested that it was completely inappropriate for the Chu family to hold a wedding at this time.

And they came up with a solution.

To put it bluntly, Xie Huaili did all this in order to get closer to Chu Qingcheng.

Although Qin Ran felt somewhat uncomfortable, he didn't think Xie Huaili had done anything wrong.

He couldn't give Chu Qingcheng the happiness she wanted.

If Xie Huaili truly cares for Chu Qingcheng and the Chu family, it would be wonderful if the two of them could get married.

Feelings can be cultivated gradually.

"That's great, I think it's excellent."

"You say that, but you definitely don't mean it that way, do you?"

"How could that be? That's exactly what I think. Xie Huaili's method is the safest and most effective."

Chu Qingcheng added, "But he did this for a reason, don't you understand?"

"Of course I understand, Xie Huaili did this for you."

"You don't react at all?" Chu Qingcheng pressed.

Qin Ran pursed her lips.

For a moment, he didn't know how to answer.

He didn't want to keep repeating what he had said before.

It gets boring if we talk about it too much.

"I do have some thoughts in my mind, but I'm not one to act on emotion. Xie Huaili can help you through this difficult time, so let him give it a try. As for how things will develop between you two in the future, that depends on fate," Qin Ran replied in a measured and conventional manner.

Chu Qingcheng quickly understood the unspoken meaning in his words.

Since that's what they've said, she couldn't really say anything more.

"I only see Xie Huaili as a friend; I don't have those kinds of feelings for him."

Qin Ran nodded: "Yes, just follow your heart."

After they finished talking, Qin Ran left.

Now that Chu Qingcheng's crisis has been resolved.

He was relieved.

Just as Qin Ran stepped out of the Chu Group building, his phone rang.

It's Tang Da.

"Hello!"

"Boss, I have some good news for you."

"What good news?"

"The gilded dragon bone finger has been discovered. If you get your hands on this treasure, it will be a tremendous asset in your fight against the demonic path."

Qin Ran was suddenly startled.

Gilded dragon-shaped finger bone!

He had heard his master mention this treasure before.

It is forged entirely from ancient deep-sea keel mixed with extraterrestrial meteorite iron.

It is not a sword or knife, but a finger sleeve weapon worn on the ten fingers.

The entire set of finger sleeves shimmered with a dark gold sheen, and the pattern was a coiled golden dragon.

Once put on, the ten fingers become incredibly sharp.

It can easily tear apart the true energy shield.

The same applies to the chaotic demonic energy.

Without time to think further, Qin Ran asked again, "Where is the Golden Coiled Dragon Bone Finger now?"

"It recently appeared in Kunlun Mountain. I heard that this item was buried deep in the secret realm of Kunlun Mountain and was only revealed due to a recent landslide. I also heard that many cultivators have rushed to Kunlun Mountain to compete for this item."

Qin Ran said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's call Ji Ruyan and set off today."

"good!"

The three boarded the plane that evening.

However, airplanes cannot reach Kunlun Mountain directly.

It can only land in nearby cities.

Then we drove there.

After the plane landed that night, Qin Ran and his two companions checked into a local hotel.

They are planning to go to Kunlun Mountain tomorrow.

……

Early the next morning.

Tang Da drove to Kunlun Mountain.

The Kunlun Mountains are a sacred mountain in the Dragon Kingdom, shrouded in mystery.

It attracts a large number of tourists year-round.

However, there are also many places here that are not open to the public and are heavily guarded.

Bureau 749 also has a secret base here.

Moreover, the Kunlun School is also located here.

Tang Da was driving on the highway.

Qin Ran and Ji Ruyan looked at the scenery outside.

"Wow, this place is so beautiful," Ji Ruyan exclaimed.

Qin Ran thought so too.

Kunlun Mountain is not a single mountain, but a continuous mountain range.

They had no idea exactly where what they were looking for was.

"Don't drive along the road, drive down to the foot of the mountain," Qin Ran said to Tang Da.

"it is good."

Tang Da turned around and drove towards the foot of the mountain.

They soon arrived at a deserted area.

"parking."

After Tang Da parked the car, the three of them got out.

"Boss, this area is full of continuous mountain ranges, so it will probably be very difficult to find what we are looking for."

"Going directly to them is impractical; let's go to the Kunlun Sect first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ran sprang to his feet, his body rising abruptly upwards.

Tang Da and Ji Ruyan followed closely behind.

The three flew through the air.

His gaze, however, was fixed on what was below.

"Look, there's someone over there." Ji Ruyan pointed to a spot not far ahead.

Qin Ran and Tang Da also saw it.

They flew quickly toward that place.

Just as they were about to get close, they landed steadily on the ground.

The people opposite were disciples of the Kunlun Sect.

The leader, a young man in white, demanded sharply, "Who are you? What is your purpose here?"

Qin Ran put his hands behind his back and said, "We're here to find the Golden Coiled Dragon Bone Finger. You're disciples of the Kunlun Sect, right?"

The young man in white sneered, "This is Kunlun Sect territory. Not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can come here. If you want to find Dragon Bone Finger, you should first consider whether you have the strength."

"From what you're saying, your Kunlun Sect knows where the Dragon Bone Finger is?"

"You have to beat us before I'm qualified to answer your questions."

After the young man in white finished speaking, he made a gesture, and his junior brothers quickly surrounded Qin Ran and the other two.

Qin Ran sneered, "I really like it when they start fighting right away."

"Enough talk, kill them."

The crowd drew their swords and swarmed forward.

Qin Ran didn't want to waste too much time with these small fry.

He was bursting with pure Yang divine power.

The young man in white and his companions were instantly struck by a violent attack.

My body involuntarily flew backward.

These people can't get close to Qin Ran at all.

"Even Mo Yixi is no match for me, let alone you scraps," Qin Ran sneered.

The young man in white dared not underestimate Qin Ran any longer.

This guy is an absolute master.

Since we can't kill it, we'll just have to take it back and process it properly.

The young man in white got up, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "I was rude just now. May I ask your honorable name, sir?"

"Qin Ran..."

The young man in white swallowed hard.

So he was Qin Ran.

They all knew about what happened at the Kyoto Budokaku last time.

Mo Yixi's failure to win the position of Chief Elder of the Martial Arts Pavilion and her disappointing return were all caused by Qin Ran.

I didn't expect him to come to Kunlun Mountain again so soon.

The young man in white continued, "So you are Master Qin. I have long admired your name. Please follow me."

"Where to?" Qin Ran asked with great interest.

"Of course we're going to the Kunlun Sect. Many martial arts practitioners who come here are gathering at our Kunlun Sect. You should come with me too."

Qin Ran's expression turned somewhat amused after hearing this.

He just stated the purpose of his visit.

The young man in white didn't mention taking the three of them to the Kunlun Sect.

Instead, they chose to take action.

They can't beat them now, so they're inviting them to the Kunlun Sect. There's clearly something fishy going on here.

Qin Ran quickly saw through Mo Yixi's little trick.

Mo Yixi divided the people who came here to search for the Dragon Bone Finger into two groups.

Some of them lack the strength, so we'll just eliminate them.

If they can't defeat them, then bring them back to the Kunlun Sect.

It seems Mo Yixi wants to deal with these people together.

Qin Ran had already seen through the Kunlun Sect's tricks, but he didn't expose them.

"Ruyan, Tangda, let's go."

The three of them followed.

Ji Ruyan leaned close to Qin Ran's ear and said, "They tried to silence us earlier, but when they couldn't beat them, they took us back to the Kunlun Sect. Something's definitely not right."

"I figured it out a long time ago. I'll just pretend I don't know. I want to see what tricks Mo Yixi is up to."

Ji Ruyan nodded and said nothing more.

The three followed the young man in white and others to the Kunlun Sect.

This was also Qin Ran's first time here.

The Kunlun Sect rises abruptly from the cliff, its two gates forged from a single piece of ancient cold jade mixed with black iron.

The gate was several tens of feet high.

The door is covered with various runes and ice lotus reliefs unique to Kunlun Mountain.

It looks majestic and imposing.

A three-foot-long black gold plaque hangs above the door, with the three large characters "Kunlun School" prominently displayed on it.

The two characters "Kunlun" are written with vigorous strokes, exuding an imposing and powerful aura.

"Please come in, gentlemen." The young man in white gestured for them to enter.

Qin Ran walked ahead.

Ji Ruyan and Tang Da followed behind.

The young man in white led them to the reception room and then left.

About fifteen minutes later, Mo Yixi arrived.

"Qin Ran, I didn't expect we'd meet so soon." Mo Yixi said with a sinister smile.

"Sect Leader Mo, how have you been?" Qin Ran smiled sinisterly.

"Thanks to you, I'm doing very well."

Qin Ran continued, "I won't beat around the bush. I'm here to find the Golden Coiled Dragon Bone Finger. Do you know where it is?"

"I don't know the exact location, but I know roughly where it is!"

"Tell me where it is, and I'll find it myself."

Mo Yixi sneered: "Qin Ran, this is the Kunlun Sect. It's not your place to give orders here. You're not the only one who wants the Dragon Bone Finger. The Thousand Machine Pavilion, the Broken Peak Tower, and the Canglang Palace all want the Dragon Bone Finger. They're all here with me. I'm going to organize a group and take you to find it. As for who can find it, that's up to each person's ability. I'm doing this because I don't want you to make a mess of things here."
