045

Tang Xiuyuan woke up after leaving Wuyingtang's school grounds.

He sent the two instructors away, then dragged his injured body to the pavilion on the mountain behind the academy.

An old man wearing a wide black robe had been waiting there for a long time.

"Master, I failed."

Tang Xiuyuan knelt on one knee in front of the black-robed man and said with a pale face: "This disciple is incompetent and failed to lead Lin Yan to the Tianwu Platform."

"It doesn't matter."

The old man in black robe waved his hand slightly. His face was haggard, and his voice was like the sound made when two pieces of rotten wood are rubbed together, hoarse and dry, "You have done a good job."

Tang Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

An evil smile flowed from the corner of the black-robed old man's mouth, and he thought to himself: "In a few days, it will be the night of the full moon, which is the time to really take action. As long as Lin Yan is refined into a puppet, he can control the Azure Dragon God Emperor. .”

"There is a powerful person in the Daqian Academy who prohibits outsiders from taking action? My puppet is not an outsider, let alone a living person."

Thinking like this, he looked at Tang Xiuyuan with bright eyes, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

Tang Xiuyuan lowered his head, unaware of his gaze, let alone what he was thinking.

The old man took out a medicine bottle from his arms and handed it to Tang Xiuyuan, saying: "Take these three pills and swallow one every day."

Tang Xiuyuan hurriedly took the medicine bottle, but for some reason, he suddenly remembered what Ye Ran had said, and there was a flash of hesitation in his expression.

The old man said calmly: "These three are middle-grade Xuan-level elixirs, which are enough for you to break through the nine shackles and advance to Nayuan."

Tang Xiuyuan, who was still hesitant at first, was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly kowtowed in thanks.

In the human dynasty, no one can resist the temptation to become a strong man in the Nayuan realm.

…

The martial arts test is still going on.

Following the procedure, Ye Ran came to the martial arts stone with everyone's attention and lightly punched him.

Six marks.

A sixteen-year-old sixth-level warrior, even in the Tianzi Class A of the martial arts academy, he is at the top.

A sixth-level warrior has reached the standards to become a martial arts instructor.

Several instructors from the martial arts academy opened their mouths and wanted to win over Ye Ran to go to the martial arts academy, but when they thought of the trouble he was in, they gave up the idea.

Lin Yan was tested after the leaves were burned.

It is also the mark of six paths.

Lin Yan is actually only a sixth-level warrior? Many people are a little disappointed with this result. They thought that Lin Yan's cultivation level would be stronger.

Lin Yan didn't care about other people's eyes. After the assessment, he left with Ye Ran.

…

"Tang Xiuyuan's cultivation level was forcibly improved through the Huiming Pill."

While walking, Ye Ran said to Lin Yan: "The Huiming Pill is a pill for puppets. Someone wants to refine him into a puppet."

Lin Yan's expression changed. Refining a living person into a puppet? This method would be too harmful to Tianhe.

Ye Ran thought for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Have you ever come into contact with any powerful puppet masters?"

"A powerful puppet master..."

Lin Yan shook his head: "I have never dealt with the puppet master."

Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, and said hurriedly: "I had a deal with Shishizhou, and bought the puppet of the world's best puppet master, Ye Shen, from them."

Ye Ran: "..."

Lin Yan didn't notice Ye Ran's expression and continued: "Thanks to that puppet, I saved my life. It's a pity that the night god is too mysterious, and I haven't been able to see him in person, and I haven't been able to thank him in person."

Hearing this, Ye Ran held Lin Yan's hand and couldn't help but tighten it.

Only then did Lin Yan realize that the two of them had been holding hands together along the way. It was a natural habit.

Lin Yan's cheeks were slightly red. She knew what he was worried about, so she said softly: "That puppet is very strong, and I wasn't hurt at all."

Suddenly, Ye Ran stopped, stretched out his other hand, and gently touched Lin Yan's chest. Lin Yan subconsciously wanted to hide, but still held back.

Ye Ran put his finger on the pendant on her chest and said in a very serious tone: "This pendant cannot be taken off at any time. If you find that the pendant is broken, you must tell me as soon as possible."

Lin Yan nodded, and seeing Ye Ran's serious expression, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

There was a cold light in Ye Ran's eyes, and he sneered: "There is a puppet master plotting against you, and Tang Xiuyuan is his pawn, and he is targeting you."

It is true that Tang Xiuyuan is paranoid, and it is also true that he wants to avenge his teacher.

Everything is traceless and flawless.

This incident itself is a situation. It has been formed since the martial arts students besieged Lin Yan and Tang Xiuyuan's teacher tried to distract him.

Ye Ran was really sure when he noticed the aura of Huiming Dan on Tang Xiuyuan's body.

The Huiming Pill is an elixir used by the puppet master to feed the puppets and improve the level of the puppet... There is only one end for a living person who swallows the Huiming Pill and is refined into a puppet.

Today's events are full of weirdness. Tang Xiuyuan does not seem to be going to the Tianwu Platform with Lin Yan, but is telling everyone that the hatred between him and Lin Yan cannot be resolved.

He is so paranoid that he even refuses to bow his head temporarily.

"This...is used to deal with the puppet master?"

Lin Yan lowered his head, glanced at Ye Ran's fingers, and his face turned red.

That pendant... was placed inside her inner armor and worn close to her body.

It turned out that he had already prepared himself.

Ye Ran retracted his fingers angrily and smiled mysteriously: "No more."

"Um?"

Lin Yan was about to speak, but his expression changed slightly.

She took out the communication talisman from the storage ring, her eyes flashed slightly, and said: "Yunguang Trading Company contacted me and asked me to pick up the medicine tomorrow."

Ye Ran was startled: "Medicine?"

"Red Cloud Ganoderma"

Lin Yan nodded: "On the fifteenth day of every month, my cold poison breaks out. Over the years, I have relied on the Red Cloud Ganoderma lucidum from Yunguang Trading Company to save my life."

Huo Zhi and Lin Yan fell out, but Huo Zhi had no control over the Chiyun Ganoderma matter. This was an agreement between the Qinglong Divine Dynasty and Yunguang Trading Company.

When Ye Ran ransacked the treasure house of Yunguang Trading Company last time, he did not find Red Cloud Ganoderma in it.

Ye Ran held his other hand tightly, narrowed his eyes and said, "I'll go with you tomorrow."

He just wanted to make sure of one thing.

"good."

Lin Yan nodded and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't need that thing now."

The potion prepared by Ye Ran was more effective than Red Cloud Ganoderma. Although the cold poison would still break out on a full moon night, it could no longer harm Lin Yan's life.

As soon as the two returned to the dormitory area, they saw Ye Xi standing outside the courtyard gate. It seemed that he had been waiting for a while.

Seeing the two people returning, Ye Xi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Lin Yan, come here, I have something to tell you!"

While speaking, he was about to pull Lin Yan, but was blocked by a hand. Ye Ran said angrily: "Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"

"you sure?"

Ye Xi glared at Ye Ran, why didn't you say that when Lin Yan and I were talking alone last time? Sure enough, you value sex over girls!

Then he said angrily: "Then I will say it."

Ye Ran said expressionlessly: "Say."

Ye Xi sighed and said seriously: "Master Lin Yan, I told you last time that my cousin is withdrawn by nature. He has never made friends since he was a child, and he doesn't know how to get along with friends. If

I would like to ask Mr. Lin Yan not to be offended by any arrogant behavior he has done...and not to misunderstand him."

"Well, Ye Ran... really doesn't hate women!"

Ye Xi's tone was meaningful and serious.

However, she didn't notice that their hands were still tightly held together under their loose sleeves.

Lin Yan: "..."

Ye Ran: "..."

At this moment, Lin Yan was slightly distracted.

She was a little disappointed, but also a little happy.

So, Ye Ran is not nice to him because he likes her. Is it a way of getting along with friends?
