âIs that so? I believe my disciple is lucky. He will be fine,â the little old man said very confidently. Hmph! The girl was already here, so how could Zheng En be in trouble? In fact, he didnât know why he believed in Leng Ruoxueâs ability so much. Perhaps she had that kind of charm!
âAre you sure? What if I tell you that Zheng En is about to die?â Lan Ningâer raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled mysteriously.
âThen as long as I go out, Iâll get all of you to die with him,â the little old man said domineeringly with his aura released!
âAh!â Lan Ningâer couldnât bear the little old manâs might. A mouthful of blood surged up her throat and flowed out the corner of her mouth.
âHmph! How useless. You call yourself a member of the Lan family? Youâre really embarrassing the Lan family,â the little old man said with some contempt. He had been good friends with the Lan familyâs old ancestor for many years. He originally wanted to take Lan Ningâer as his disciple on account of his old friend when he heard that the Lan family had an alchemy genius. However, he didnât expect Lan Ningâer to disappoint him to the core!
âHmph! Iâll come again,â Lan Ningâer said stubbornly as she wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Ever since what happened last time, the way the Lan family looked at her had changed. Her grandfather no longer treated her like before. She suddenly became a lowly member of the Lan family, despised by everyone. How could she, who had been pampered and proud since she was young, bear with this? Later on, she unintentionally learned that His Excellency Du Min was in Carefree City, so she secretly left her home and came here, hoping to take him as her master to reverse her status in the family. However, she didnât expect that the person she wanted to take as her master was actually the old beggar she had scolded. She was a little dumbfounded at that time, and that old man was very vengeful. He refused to take her in as his disciple no matter how hard she tried. Hmph! She was really angry!
âDonât come anymore. I wonât take you in as my disciple,â the little old man said lightly before Lan Ningâer left.
Upon hearing this, Lan Ningâer turned her head, glared fiercely at the little old man, and left with a face full of anger!
âLass, did you hear what she said? Zheng Enâs condition isnât good. Go and save him first! Iâll be fine for the time being,â the little old man said worriedly after Lan Ningâer left. Alas! Zheng En was his proudest disciple. He would definitely not forgive himself if anything happened.
âLass, are you still here?â The little old man couldnât help asking again seeing that no one answered.
âIâm here,â Leng Ruoxue said. She hadnât said anything since Lan Ningâer came just now, but she had been here all along. Moreover, she had already let Baby read Lan Ningâerâs heart and found Zheng Enâs whereabouts. She was listening to Babyâs report just now!
âLass, what are you doing? Werenât you there just now?â the little old man asked doubtfully.
âI was thinking about something just now. Grandpa Du, Iâm going to save Zheng En now. Please stay here for a while! Iâll save you later,â Leng Ruoxue said. If she saved the little old man now, she would be alerted if she was discovered!
âOkay, quickly save my good disciple. Iâll be fine. They wonât dare to kill me,â the little old man hurriedly urged.
âOkay, Grandpa Du, weâre leaving,â Leng Ruoxue said.
âOkay!â The little old man nodded vigorously, but he couldnât help thinking in his heart. Us? Could there be others here just now?
After speaking, Leng Ruoxue left with the freak and Empty.
After leaving the Alchemist Association, Leng Ruoxue and the others found the Sun familyâs yard according to the address Baby mentioned.
The Sun familyâs yard was located in the north of Carefree City. It was not as big as the Lan familyâs yard, but it was considered one of the best in Carefree City. Leng Ruoxue smiled evilly as she looked at the tall and mighty walls of the Sun familyâs yard while standing outside the Sun familyâs yard. She took out several black spherical objects from her ring and buried them under the wallâ¦
âXueâer, what is this?â Empty asked curiously. Uh⦠He didnât seem to have seen this thing before.
âThis is a new weapon I refined, called Explosive Ball.â Leng Ruoxue said with a light smile. Hehe, actually, this was just a bomb. She created it according to her memories of her previous life and had never had the chance to use it. She didnât expect it to come in handy today.
âExplosive ball? It can explode?â Empty said in surprise. Haha, he didnât expect such a thing to exist. Xueâer was really amazing!
âGive me a few. Iâll play with them too.â Empty stretched out his hand and requested.
âFor you!â Leng Ruoxue gave the freak, Empty, and her beasts a few each. Then she ordered them to bury the exploding ball in a corner of the Sun familyâs yard.
After doing all this, Leng Ruoxue ordered Quill to find the location of the cell. Then she found the cell according to Quillâs location!
Perhaps Sun Wei believed too much in the defense of the Sun familyâs yard, but there was actually no one guarding the huge cell. Leng Ruoxue, the others, and the beasts sneaked in smoothly.
A pungent moldy smell surged into his nose as soon as he entered the cell. The cell was so dark that he couldnât see his fingers in front of him. Moreover, he could vaguely hear the sound of water flowingâ¦
Leng Ruoxue and the others searched each cell under the dim light and finally found Zheng En covered in blood and injuries in the innermost water prison.
Seeing Zheng En unconscious and on the verge of death, a strong killing intent surged into Leng Ruoxueâs heart! Hmph! Those who dared to touch her had to pay the price. She would definitely not let Sun Wei off lightly!
Sensing the fluctuation in Xueâerâs emotions, the freak hurriedly took out a dagger that could slice iron like mud, cut the chains of the water prison, and rushed in first to save Zheng En, who was tied to the wallâ¦
âXueâer, quickly put him into the space and letâs leave this place,â the freak reminded.
âOkay.â Leng Ruoxue took out a pill and stuffed it into the unconscious Zheng Enâs mouth. Then, with a thought, she stored Zheng En in the bracelet and quickly left the cell.
After leaving the cell, Leng Ruoxue and the others arrived at the main yard. They heard abnormal groans and panting coming from the main house as soon as they entered. There were also the excited howls of men and the low sobbing of women. They came to the window curiously and looked in casually, only to find that the two main leads were people they knew, Sun Wei and Lan Ningâer!
