After Zi Chen landed on the ground, he immediately turned around and said, "Since senior is so sincere in your invitation, junior can only accept it."
Lan Rui curled his lips. This was too cunning.
Shan Ya and Noah remained motionless. It was unknown whether it was because of excitement or fear.
The light on Little Mute's body had dissipated. Her transformation had ended at this time.
She was still in the Soul Void Realm. She was very afraid of the auras of these unfamiliar old men around her.
Looking at Little Mute who was like a pitiful little beast, Zi Chen was helpless. He couldn't even protect himself now.
These old men might kill him to silence him.
The killing intent he sensed earlier was not fake.
Looking at the subtle atmosphere in front of him, Zi Chen hesitated for a moment before saying, "Senior, you just said that Little Mute is a fairy. I guess her identity must be very noble, right?"
The old men did not answer, but Lan Rui took the initiative to say, "Of course. How noble is the fairy's identity?
You can protect the fairy along the way. You are naturally meritorious, but you are also lucky.
When you return to the family, there will be benefits for you, so you can be happy. "
Zi Chen cupped his fists again and said, "I see. It seems that we are really lucky.
As a rogue cultivator, Zi Chen greets the fairy and seniors. "
The group of old men looked at each other. Obviously, they did not expect Zi Chen to speak so much. Even if they had killing intent in their hearts, they could not show it at this time.
"Bring the fairy back to the family!"
The old man who spoke before said again. He should be the one in charge, so he made the final decision.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and come over."
Lan Rui waved at Zi Chen, indicating for him to come forward.
The old man turned to look at Zi Chen, and his eyes were a little more fierce.
Zi Chen could only brace himself and go forward. Shan Ya and Noah followed obediently. In front of absolute strength, all schemes were futile.
Right now, they could only go to the Lan family.
This was obviously a teleportation array. After Zi Chen stepped into the light, he felt a strong suction force.
In the next moment, everyone's figures disappeared.
After they left, cracks suddenly appeared on the mountain with the teleportation array. These cracks began to spread until the entire mountain exploded.
*****
*****
When Zi Chen's figure reappeared, he was beside a statue. This place was filled with a sacred and solemn aura. Obviously, this was not an ordinary place.
This could be seen from the expressions of the old men.
Zi Chen immediately lowered his head and stopped looking around.
Lan Rui glanced at Zi Chen with a strange expression.
At this moment, another wave of energy fell on him. The feeling of being teleported appeared again. This time, when they reappeared, they were already in a large hall.
A powerful force sent Zi Chen and the other two flying out of the hall. Before he left the hall, he heard the old man's voice again. "Rui 'er, arrange a place for the Holy Maiden."
The three of them landed outside the hall. Shan Ya and Noah looked at each other. Didn't they say that they were people who had performed meritorious deeds? Why were they treating their guests like this?
Zi Chen's expression was still calm because he knew very well that after coming here, they no longer had the right to speak. Everything could only be arranged by others, or it could be said that it was up to fate.
Although he did not like this feeling, there was nothing he could do about it.
However, what puzzled him was that since they were willing to pay a huge price to bring Mute back, why were they all so cold?
Some of them could not even hide their killing intent.
The three of them stood outside the hall and could not hear what the people in the hall were saying. No one paid them any attention.
"I see that your expressions are a little different from before. Do you know something?"
Since he had nothing to do, Zi Chen asked about the scene he saw earlier. At that time, the two of them were stunned and did not move.
Noah pursed his dry lips and said in a deep voice, "If we're not wrong, we're standing in the Lan family now."
"So it's the Lan family. Didn't they say it before?" Zi Chen said.
Noah said, "If it's really the Lan family, then this is one of the most powerful families in the Blue Sand Continent. They govern almost half of the forces in the Blue Sand Continent."
"What?" Zi Chen's expression changed when he heard this.
Noah then talked about some of the Lan family's forces that he had heard of. This made Zi Chen frown.
Such a huge family had countless experts. If they were really willing to let the Fairy return, why would they need the three of them to protect her?
Those old men from before all had the power to easily crush him.
At this moment, Zi Chen could not help but wonder if the Lan family's goal from the beginning was to make the entire mission fail and not succeed.
"To think that Lanrui was worried that you guys would be at a loss when you first arrived here. I didn't expect you guys to be chatting. You guys seem to be in a good mood."
A slightly sarcastic voice sounded. A woman in red walked in their direction.
She exuded a youthful aura. Her delicate chin was slightly raised with a hint of arrogance. She glanced at Zi Chen and said, "You don't look that bad, you coward."
Zi Chen looked at the woman in red and did not know what to say.
Noah and Shan Ya were obviously very nervous. After all, this was the Lan family. If their enemy, the Ghost King, was already powerful enough, then the Lan family was even more powerful than the Ghost King. Perhaps they only needed to move their fingers gently and the powerful Ghost King would be annihilated.
The woman in red came in front of the three of them. She looked at the silent Zi Chen and said, "I heard from Lanrui that you were so scared that you couldn't even walk when you found out that you were coming to the Lan family?"
Facing this woman who was obviously sarcastic, Zi Chen said calmly, "It's not that I was scared. I was just a little surprised and surprised."
The woman in red smiled mockingly and said, "Then I'll take you guys to the Lan family?
There are many places that will broaden your horizons. "
Zi Chen immediately said, "No, we're fine here. Maybe those seniors will have other orders later."
"Humph!
And you say you're not a coward. "
The woman in red rolled her eyes and said, "I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Lan Hongyi. You can call me Hongyi. I'm Lanrui's younger sister."
"I'm Zi Chen. Greetings …"
Zi Chen immediately cupped his fists. However, before he could finish, he was interrupted by the woman. "Let's skip the pleasantries. Come with me. Since she's returned to the family, nothing can happen to her.
After all, she's from such a big family. She still wants to save face.
But the three of you, if you keep standing here, aren't you worried that you'll cause trouble? "
Obviously, this woman had a more thorough view of the situation. Her action also saved the three of them from an awkward situation. Zi Chen could not help but look at her a few more times.
Apart from her flamboyant personality, she also had a meticulous heart. He could not help but think of the maid called Xiao Yu.
Under her bossy and domineering attitude, she actually had a meticulous heart. She was clearly not even at the Soul Void Realm, but she made everyone run in circles.
For a moment, Zi Chen was a little distracted.
"What? You're not even blinking. Are you tempted by me?
Have you prepared enough betrothal gifts? "
