"Do you want to participate in the Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament?"
Wen Yuren looked a little surprised.
He quickly said:
"Mr. Lu, this 100-sect ranking competition is not a battle about medicine. Although your medical skills are top-notch, this 100-sect ranking competition is based on personal strength, not medical skills."
He began to explain to Lu Lan the origin of the "Hundred Sects Ranking Competition".
Lu Lan listened patiently to what he said.
After he finished speaking, Lu Lan smiled slightly and said:
"Senior Wen, of course I know what the 'Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament' is."
Wen Yuren: "..."
You know that you still listen to me talk so much?
"Senior Wen, please believe me."
Lu Lan said solemnly: "I really want to participate in the 'Hundred Sects Ranking Tournament'. And my strength will not let Senior Wen down."
He couldn't directly say that he wanted to get the tenth place reward, Eight Meridian Scrophulariaceae.
If he really said that, Wen Yuren might still be friendly to him on the surface, but in fact, he might think of him as a stupid young man who knows nothing about Xuan Dao.
Wen Yuren fell into thought.
Finally, he sighed and said:
"After all, the quota in Lingjian Sect was obtained with Mr. Lu's help... I really can't refuse Mr. Lu's request."
"Well, it just so happens that I am going back to the sect to pass the news to the sect master. Mr. Lu will also go with me to meet the sect master. This matter still needs to be decided by the sect master."
Hearing this, Lu Lan breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said:
"Thank you very much, Senior Wen."
As long as this matter is discussed, it will be much easier to handle.
The leader of the Lingjian Sect wants to participate in the "Hundred Sects Ranking Competition", which means that he has great confidence in the younger generation of disciples of the Lingjian Sect, and may think that they can make the Lingjian Sect have a place on the ranking list. Not a bad ranking.
When the time comes, all he needs to do is show that he is stronger than the disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect, and I believe that the master of the Spirit Sword Sect will definitely agree to his request.
In the end, the world still has to rely on fists to speak.
Lu Lan returned to the third floor and knocked on Chu Yun's door.
"What's the matter?"
Chu Yun's voice came from inside.
Lu Lan was stunned for a moment.
Today, Chu Yun's voice seemed to be much cooler than before, without the unique softness when she faced him before.
Lu Lan didn't think much and told what happened just now.
Not long after, Chu Yun opened the door and walked out.
Wearing a plain white dress, her face without makeup is still dotted with a well-placed beauty mark next to her right eye.
She glanced at Lu Lan with cold eyes and immediately walked towards the stairs first.
"Let's go."
Lu Lan looked at her back and felt that Chu Yun was a little strange today, but she couldn't tell why.
The group of people left the teahouse and walked out in the direction of the county town.
In addition to Lu Lan and the others, there were also two strong men from the Spirit Sword Sect who were originally stationed at the stronghold.
They are all at the late stages of the True Mysterious Realm.
Along the way, Chu Yun seemed very cold. Even if Lu Lan asked her to chat, she only responded lukewarmly, unlike before, she would not say a few words to Lu Lan.
The strange feeling in Lu Lan's heart became more and more intense.
He was about to ask Chu Yun directly if something happened, but suddenly his expression changed slightly and he immediately stopped and turned around.
The surrounding area was bustling with people and lively as usual.
Wherever he looked, there was nothing unusual.
"What's wrong, Mr. Lu?"
Wen Yuren also stopped and asked curiously.
"...For some reason, I always feel like someone is following us."
With Lu Lan's cultivation level, the range of his spiritual awareness is naturally far less than that of Chu Yun and Wen Yuren.
But his instinct told him that someone seemed to be following them secretly.
When Chu Yun on the side heard this, her expression moved slightly, and her eyes became colder.
"It must be that Mr. Lu is delusional."
Wen Yuren also scanned the surroundings, and after finding nothing unusual, he smiled and said:
"I know that Mr. Lu may think that after those evil people's plan against the princess was ruined by you, they will find someone to take revenge on Mr. Lu."
"But Mr. Lu, please trust these two strong men of our Lingjian Sect."
"They can actually sense if there's someone around us that's following us."
After Wen Yuren finished speaking, the two powerful men shook their heads with indifference.
They did not notice any abnormal aura or unusual movement around them.
If it weren't for Lu Lan helping their Lingjian Sect get a place to participate in the "Hundred Sects Ranking Competition", they would probably already look down on Lu Lan in their hearts.
Even they didn't sense anything abnormal. What could a young boy sense?
Lu Lan pondered for a moment, but in the end she didn't have much to say and followed them out of the county town.
After they walked out of the city gate, a man wearing ordinary clothes next to the stall put down what he was holding, glanced at the backs of Lu Lan and others, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"It seems that this kid is very cautious. We need to make him relax his vigilance..."
After leaving the county town, Lu Lan and his party did not encounter any unusual people along the way.
This made Lu Lan wonder if she was being too cautious in the city.
Within half a day, Lingjian Sect arrived.
Lingjian Sect is located on a high mountain only more than two hundred miles away from Wuyun County.
The mountain is surrounded by a deep forest.
There are certainly many mysterious beasts in the deep forest.
However, the Lingjian Sect had obviously opened up a special road leading to the mountain gate, and no mysterious beast on either side dared to attack them.
Lu Lan glanced around.
On both sides of the road they were walking, basically every ten steps there would be a protective black crystal, emitting a barrier and standing on both sides.
At the same time, there are also many "expelling beasts" used to drive away mysterious beasts.
The group soon arrived at the mountain gate halfway up the mountain.
At this moment, many disciples of the Lingjian Sect were practicing at the sword field near the mountain gate.
When Lu Lan and Chu Yun appeared, many disciples were immediately attracted and almost failed to do their sword practice.
There are few female disciples in Lingjian Sect, so when Chu Yun appeared, she attracted the attention of many people.
"What are you looking at! You are not concentrating on sword practice!"
The elder who led them to practice swordsmanship suddenly gave a cold shout.
After these brats continued to practice their swordsmanship, he secretly turned his head to take a look.
As a result, Chu Yun's graceful figure had long disappeared, and he sighed in disappointment.
Spirit Sword Pavilion.
This is an important place for the Lingjian Sect. Every major meeting of the sect leader and elders will be held here.
When Wen Yuren brought Lu Lan and Chu Yun here, the leader of the Lingjian Sect and the first elder and other elders had been notified in advance by the two accompanying strong men and had been waiting here for a long time.
"Old Wen, you are finally back."
Li Xiao, the leader of Lingjian Sect, smiled faintly and said with some expectancy:
"Do you have any good news to bring back?"
"I have met the sect leader."
Wen Yuren clasped his fists in salute and smiled excitedly:
"Congratulations to the lord for your good fortune. Among the doctors invited by the old man, one of them happened to find out what the princess was pregnant with."
With that said, Wen Yuren stepped aside and allowed Lu Lan to appear in front of Li Xiao and other Lingjian Sect elders.
"Sir, Master, this Master Lu Lan is the doctor I just mentioned."
