There are always fairies plotting against me

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't use the Avenue of Time." Huang Ningchang looked at him with a smile: "Because I know that even if you look, you won't see anything. This has nothing to do with strength.

After all, I can’t see it.”

Lu Jinan remained silent, and Huang Ningchang slowly spoke: "Don't you want to ask the reason?"

"Can you speak?"

"At least here, no one can hear what I say." Huang Ningchang raised her other hand and grasped the cage bar: "Because she has no past, no future, only the present, only the present moment."

"Hmm?" Lu Jinan stared at Huang Ningchang blankly: "W-What do you mean?"

Huang Ningchang looked at his clear yet foolish expression and couldn't help but smile: "This is indeed a level that you can't reach right now, and I won't talk to you too much..."

Speaking out loud will not benefit your understanding."

"That's all I can tell you." Huang Ningchang retracted her gaze, her voice carrying a hint of inexplicable meaning: "This is the strength of Lu Yunzhu."

Lu Jinan was overwhelmed by what he heard, so he simply changed the subject: "Are you and my sister collaborating?"

"Ah."

"So are you dead or not?"

"you guess?"

"I'm too lazy to guess." Lu Jinan lowered his head: "Can you let me go now?"

"Afraid of being seen by Qingyue?"

"Yes." Lu Jinan said directly: "Even if Senior Sister and I are Taoist couples, even if you want to make up for your maternal love for Senior Sister, you don't have to be nice to me. After all, you can't leave here.

Besides, I don’t think you will have any resentment towards your sister for building you such a cage.”

"That makes sense." Huang Ningchang nodded, and her smile suddenly became playful.

"Then you might as well guess why she locked me in a cage?"

Chapter 325 The Mysterious Huang Ningchang

"Then you might as well guess why she locked me in a cage?"

After she finished speaking, Huang Ningchang took the initiative to release Lu Jinan's wrist, and as she took a step forward, her slender fingers gently stroked the bars of the cage.

She stopped, turned around and sat down on the steps beside her.

The black dress was neat and well-fitting on her slender figure, highlighting her bust and slender waist that were no less beautiful than her master's.

As the hem of the skirt moved upward, the exposed slender legs wrapped in silk trousers were straight and slender, and the snow-white and smooth skin was faintly visible.

At this moment, the pair of well-proportioned, slender and graceful calves were slanted and brought together, revealing the lines of the shins and the bare, snow-smooth feet as white as mutton fat.

Lu Jinan's gaze was fixed on Huang Ningchang's face. At this moment, Huang Ningchang was looking at him with a calm gaze.

Huang Ningchang, with her black hair tied up in a bun, had a pair of slender phoenix eyes that were curved inward and outward, giving people a natural sense of oppression.

Her appearance is at least 70% similar to that of her master, but compared to the enchanting charm that her master exudes unintentionally, Huang Ningchang exudes a unique, majestic charm that comes from having been in a high position for a long time.

Lu Jinan lowered his eyes slightly, thinking about it, as the master's sister, Huang Ningchang must have shouldered more responsibilities, otherwise the master would not appear lazy and idle, and occasionally reveal a naughty side.

But her problem at this moment is—

Lu Jinan had an idea: At the beginning, his sister and Huang Ningchang were collaborating in some way, but a huge disagreement may have arisen in the middle, and then one of them kicked the other out...

But considering what Huang Ningchang said just now, "coming here on her own initiative", this assumption does not hold true.

Although it might be the result of Huang Ningchang's initiative to give in, would a woman like this take the initiative to give in?

In addition, her elder sister's ascension to immortality only happened this year. Although Huang Ningchang had a high opinion of her elder sister, could that kind of mysterious "power" really make the suspected transcendent Huang Ningchang give in?

Unless, Huang Ningchang has some unknown purpose.

Thinking about what Huang Ningchang had just said, Lu Jinan pondered and said, "You are here to obtain the inheritance of the Phoenix Ancestor for your senior sister, right?"

If you think about it from the perspective of your daughter, then it makes sense.

Huang Ningchang raised her hands and clapped them lightly a few times, a faint smile on her lips as she said, "I guessed wrong."

What should we applaud if we guess wrong?

Lu Jinan was speechless for a moment, but then asked, "Didn't you change 'Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix' into a suitable inheritance for Qingyue?

"It's just incidental."

"Incidentally?" Lu Jinan looked at Huang Ningchang suspiciously. "Killing the phoenix and refining 'Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix', does this count as 'incidentally'?"

Huang Ningchang did not answer Lu Jinan's question, but just patted her side and motioned him to sit over.

Lu Jinan didn't move, but replied seriously: "Junior can hear your voice."

Huang Ningchang looked at him with a smile: "Do you want to hear the real reason why I came here? It's related to your sister."

Lu Jinan hesitated for a moment and then walked over and sat down, keeping a certain distance from her, not even touching her clothes.

Originally, Huang Ningchang would not have said anything, but since it was related to her sister, she had to listen.

If he had thought about rebelling or "revenging" his sister before, now he really wanted to overcome the huge mountain of "sister".

"She really has a great influence on you." Huang Ningchang turned her head to look at him, her voice softer. "That's why you reacted so strongly when the cultivator from the upper realm said 'I told you to escape,' right?"

Lu Jinan looked at the ground expressionlessly. This woman had been peeking at him, and—

Do you know him so well?

"What did you see from Taishi Chong's memories?"

......"

Lu Jinan remained silent. Huang Ningchang smiled and said, "The Great Freedom Visualization Method is an immortal method that Lu Yunzhu and I wrote together."

"What you've learned can't be called a fragment, it can only be said to be half of it." Huang Ningchang said lightly, "Because the rest of the chapter varies from person to person, it all depends on what path you want to take.

But there is no point in saying this, because there are only two people in the world who practice this magic."

Lu Jinan asked his doubts: "Did you understand me through the Great Freedom Visualization Method?"

Huang Ningchang said something that made Lu Jinan feel much more at ease: "No."

But what she said next left Lu Jinan speechless again: "She disdains to use this method, and of course, I disdain it too."

"Her love for you is very heavy, right?" Huang Ningshang looked at him with a smile.

"Yeah." Lu Jinan leaned back, resting his elbows on the top step, his expression unchanged: "I experienced this when I was a kid."

When he was a child, his sister was extremely strict with him except in cultivation, but not so strict in other aspects.

Especially in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, he lived a life of having everything provided for him. It can be said that he was raised to be half a useless person.

"Are you angry?"

"I expected this." Lu Jin'an smiled. "Although it's a heavy burden, it's also true that it's good for me. I won't abandon everything I've learned just because of this. Wouldn't that prove that I'm even more afraid of her than before?"

Besides, apart from Master, whose love is not heavy?

Lu Jinan thought silently, then asked, "So, why do you want to know me? Because of my sister?"

"That's a long story, so I won't go into it," Huang Ningchang said lightly. Before Lu Jinan could ask further questions, she broached another topic: "You do know that there's a wider world outside of the Yunding Continent, right?"

"This is a well-known fact." Lu Jinan remained calm.

After all, whether it is transcendence, alien races from outer space, or the world before his reincarnation - they can all prove this point.

"I won't tell you too much. I just want to ask you one question." Huang Ningchang drew a circle with her finger: "How did Yunding come into being?"

Listening to Huang Ningchang's voice, Lu Jinan first confirmed one thing in his mind: Huang Ningchang had transcended.

She must have been outside, just like the concept of ascending to the fairyland existed in the human race a long, long time ago.

If that's the case, then Huang Ningchang is most likely not dead. Thinking about this, Lu Jinan began to answer her question: "Like a tree, the process of growing from a seed to a towering tree."

Huang Ningchang suddenly reached out and touched his head. Lu Jinan was stunned for a moment, then quickly tilted his head to the side, avoiding her hand: "Senior, please respect yourself."

Huang Ningchang looked at him with a playful expression. Lu Jinan frowned slightly and looked away: "So, what does this question have to do with the purpose of your coming here?"

"Do you know why the dark matter in the Nanda Realm cannot be purified?" Huang Ningchang withdrew her hand and asked another question.

"Spiritual power is not as good as dark matter." Lu Jinan looked up at the phoenix skeleton: "But dark matter is not as good as the demonic energy of the phoenix that inhabited the phoenix tree."

"That's one of the reasons." Huang Ningchang said slowly, "Another reason is that although the Southern Great Realm is still in Yunding, in some aspects, it is no longer considered a part of Yunding."

Lu Jinan was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "Survival with a broken arm?"

Huang Ningchang stretched out her right hand again, but Lu Jinan dodged in advance.

"Hmm?" Huang Ningchang raised her tone, but it didn't scare Lu Jinan. Instead, the invisible pressure made Lu Jinan unable to move.

Huang Ningchang touched Lu Jinan's head again. Lu Jinan felt uncomfortable all over. It was impossible that his senior sister's mother would act like "the mother-in-law likes her son-in-law more and more the more she looks at him" the first time she saw him, right?

Looking at Huang Ningshang's ruby-like eyes, which were the same as his senior sister's, Lu Jinan couldn't help but wonder, could it be that his mother-in-law has been observing him through the long river of time?

After all, I know him very well.

But when I think about it, I think it’s impossible.

Because Huang Ningchang couldn't stand his previous behavior of bullying her senior sister. If she had observed it earlier, her reaction would not have been so strong.

Forget it, this question is not important.

Anyway, apart from my sister, one more or one less doesn't make much difference, so the impact won't be that big.

There is no point in constantly worrying about a problem that you have no power to change, except to cause internal friction.

Lu Jinan simply stopped resisting and waited quietly for Huang Ningchang's next words. "Two years younger than Qingyue?" Huang Ningchang smiled softly, "Qingyue has a withdrawn personality, so you should be more tolerant of her."

Lu Jinan turned his head to look at her: "You don't have to tell me, I will do the same."

Huang Ningchang smiled but said nothing.

Lu Jinan stared at her face for a long time before slowly asking, "You haven't finished what you were saying before—"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Jinan felt something hard in Huang Ningchang's hand above his head. He felt a slight discomfort, and found that Huang Ningchang had already spread out her hand in front of him, with a black and white seed lying in the palm of her hand.

seed?

Lu Jinan's thoughts raced, and combined with what Huang Ningchang had just said, an unbelievable thought popped up in his mind: "Nandajie?

"You could also say that this is the reason why there has been no transcendence in tens of thousands of years." Huang Ningchang said calmly, "Do you understand?"

Lu Jinan nodded, so this was undoubtedly the seed of the Nanda Realm.

In this case, the reason why the outside world says that the sect leader Zheng Dongliu is not transcendent is a bit biased.

Sect Leader Zheng is indeed wholeheartedly devoted to the human race, but he is indeed unable to reach the realm of transcendence.

The Cloudtop Continent is incomplete.

But Lu Jinan couldn't figure out the inevitable connection between this and the inability to transcend.

Moreover, since the Nanda Realm has separated from the Yunding Continent, does that mean it is no longer considered a part of the whole?

Will there be new seeds?

Or maybe Lu Jinan looked up at Huang Ningchang again and asked, "Is this the reason you came here on your own initiative?"

For a woman who could even kill a transcendent phoenix, it shouldn't be too strange for her to do something like this?

"Not really." Huang Ningchang held his wrist, placed the seed in his palm, and then slowly closed his fingers: "This is my purpose."

Feeling the warmth from Huang Ningchang's hand, Lu Jinan was silent for a moment before asking for the first time, "You're not a spirit clone, but an avatar?"

"You won't refuse?" Huang Ningchang looked at him with a half-smile: "Aren't you afraid that there might be something unsafe hidden inside?"

Lu Jinan said nonchalantly, "My sister gave me the 'Great Freedom Visualization Method' and I practiced it as well."

"Hmm—" Huang Ningchang retracted her hands: "After all, this thing is more useful than small worlds like caves or secret realms."

Hearing this, Lu Jinan's pupils shrank, and the hand holding the 'seed' tightened a little.

"I have to say, your idea is brilliant." Huang Ningchang continued to herself, "In this respect, you are just as bold as she is, but she takes a more unconventional approach."

Lu Jinan closed his eyes, thought for a moment, and asked, "Are you using me for revenge?"

"Well," Huang Ningchang said as she looked at the colorful cocoon of light surrounding Mu Qingyue. "But the reason is different from what you thought."

Lu Jinan opened his eyes: "Why is that?"

"Let's get back to the original question." Huang Ningchang stood up and walked back to the cage: "Why did Lu Yunzhu have to build a cage for me?"
