Although from the beginning to end, he was still unwilling to reveal his true intentions for coming to see Chu Yan, but at this moment, his tone was so thick that even a fool could hear it.
"Then I'll accompany you to the nearby city tomorrow." Chu Yan said, "If I were in the Shattered Star Pavilion, my current level would be too low, there are many places that I would not be able to go to."
"Will it affect your cultivation?" Before he finished speaking, Lin Miaoran had already lowered his head.
In her heart, she naturally hoped that Chu Yan would be able to accompany her.
There was no way to say what I was afraid of delaying your cultivation.
When the sun set, the results of the ranking competition were out.
Shen Qing, who had made it into the top ten for the first time, had managed to achieve an unexpected breakthrough and was placed eighth.
Jiang Panmeng returned to third with the aura of a king.
Chu Yan had defeated Su Jianyuan, and became the second most eye-catching person.
Li Xiu was still number one; no one could shake his position.
After the competition ended, everyone dispersed.
Everyone had different thoughts that night.
Because he had returned to the top three, Jiang Panmeng was overjoyed.
Su Jianyuan trained hard in the sword, actively preparing for the next challenge.
Shen Qing lay on her bed, staring at the moonlight outside the window, not moving at all. It was unknown what she was thinking about.
Chu Yan devoured spirit stones and absorbed spiritual energy from the time and space cage.
Lin Miaoran was extremely anticipatory of meeting her on the second day, and was unable to sleep soundly.
That night, in a valley near the border of Yunao Kingdom, a bonfire was set ablaze as the moonlight scattered down.
The crackling light of the fire brightened and dimmed the surroundings.
There were five or six figures standing, squatting, or sitting. Their expressions were all different, and the atmosphere at the scene became a bit tense.
After a moment, one of the women took out a blood-red jade token from her waist.
Some twisted words like tadpoles slowly appeared on the surface of the jade token.
The woman looked at it and her face lit up. "Alright."
The others all stood up and looked in her direction.
"The seeds over there have already been sowed. It should be effective in about ten to fifteen days." The woman looked around at the crowd.
"Then, won't we have to wait for half a month?" Amongst the crowd, a tall guy who was two heads taller than the average said in a rough voice.
"Then we'll just wait for half a month. It's not something important anyway." A guy who was clearly a man, yet was wearing rouge on his face pinched his throat and said.
"How is it not urgent? If we do it beautifully and get the lord's reward, anything that he divulges from his fingers will be sufficient for us to use." said a man whose hair covered half his face and whose body was hidden in the darkness.
The other people seemed to be quite afraid of this man with long hair that covered his face. When they heard him speak, they didn't refute him and went back to their seats.
"Once the seed sprouts, we'll have something to do. We'll have to replenish our energy and build up our strength during this period of time." The woman swept her gaze across the jade tablet, and said to the crowd: "We will be working in the Southern Yun, and at that time, there will definitely be sect disciples who will come. Don't forget our goal."
Upon hearing her last sentence, a bloodthirsty look flashed in the eyes of the surrounding people.
Ordinary people would only pass a seemingly ordinary night, but in the time and space cage, the length of this night was extended by three times.
Chu Yan used this period of time to readjust his body. When the sun rose, he would reunite with Lin Miaoran in front of the mountain gate.
Because of the limited time, Chu Yan and Lin Miaoran did not travel too far. They instead went to the city closest to the Shattered Star Pavilion, which was about an hour and a half away.
After Chu Yan came to the Shattered Star Pavilion, it was rare for such a day to come where he could let go of the pressure in his heart and return to the mundane world.
What he heard were the hawkers calling out to him, greeting him. This feeling, for Chu Yan, was something that he had not experienced for far, far too long.
Because Fu Rui was young, shesheiked the liveliness. At this moment, she was skipping and walking in front of the two of them, and when she saw anything interesting and delicious, he couldn't help but stop and size them up curiously.
In this kind of situation, Chu Yan would naturally not pretend not to see it.
Before he came out this time, he had already made preparations and exchanged it for the gold and silver that the common people would need.
Therefore, no matter what Lin Miaoran and Fu Rui wanted to buy, he didn't care about the price and directly bought it.
Therefore, before long, not a single person could carry the things they bought, so Chu Yan bought a unicycle and stacked the things he bought on top of it. Then, he carried Fu Rui up as well and pushed the cart forward.
In fact, whether it was Chu Yan or Lin Miaoran, they both had storage bag on them.
However, at this moment, the two of them still chose to be like mortals and enjoy their rare leisure time.
In the afternoon, after drinking the tea, Chu Yan suddenly saw Lin Miaoran who did not react at all. He dipped his finger in the tea and wrote a few words on the table: There is someone following him.
Chu Yan laughed when he heard it, and also dipped his tea into the tea, writing on the table: "I found it in the afternoon, what do you want to do with it?"
Actually, when he entered the city today, Chu Yan already had the feeling that someone was following him.
Later, when they were shopping, he took a detour and finally confirmed that someone was indeed following them.
Furthermore, the few people following them were obviously not good at this. Chu Yan used a little bit of methods, and under no circumstances that alarmed Lin Miaoran and, they figured out the appearances of these people's bodies.
At the moment, these people were in the opposite teahouse, pretending to drink tea while monitoring them.
Lin Miaoran muttered to herself for a moment, then slightly shook her head and wrote: "Who are they?"
Naturally, Chu Yan was not clear about the identities of these people.
However, he already knew from their previous probing that these people were all cultivators.
"I don't know." After pondering for a moment, Chu Yan wrote, "Let's get rid of them first."
After disturbing the time he had spent with Lin Miaoran, Chu Yan's current mood was indeed not very good.
Lin Miaoran did not expect Chu Yan to be so resolute. She was stunned for a moment, then recovered and nodded, writing: "I'll be with you."
After she finished writing, she looked up at Chu Yan, her eyes filled with determination.
After what had happened in the Evergreen Town, Lin Miaoran secretly made a decision in her heart. If there were to be another similar incidents in the future, she would definitely not separate from Chu Yan.
This time, it would naturally not be an exception.
Chu Yan nodded and glanced at him.
After walking around for a good half a day, Little Fu Rui seemed to be a little sleepy right now. Her hands propped up her chin, her eyes squinting and her head bobbing up and down, as though she could fall asleep at any time.
As for the conversation between her young miss and Chu Yan just now, she did not realize it at all.
