Chapter 1225: Meeting Lan Si
Chapter 1225: Meeting Lan Si
In a rather luxurious carved cart, 2 blue light streams shot into the sky. A man and a woman could be vaguely seen in the light streams.
Liu Ming’s expression changed slightly, and he stopped at the door.
His Divine Thought just scanned from the distance, and he could clearly sense that the other party was not weaker than the Savage Bear Race Xiong Jia. They were actually 2 Real Pellet State cultivators hidden in the Sky Bird Race’s caravan.
At such a close distance, he hadn’t noticed it at all before. If it wasn’t for the mystic arts cast by the 2 beastkin cultivators, it must be the special enchantment on the luxurious cart that could conceal aura.
Among the 2 beastkin cultivators, 1 was a girl in blue clothes with 3 dazzling blue feathers on her head while the other was a middle-aged man with blue hair who had an indifferent look.
The woman in blue clothes changed gestures while chanting an obscure incantation, then she launched a faint blue light cluster. It turned into countless blue silks, intertwined into a leaf shape and covered the brown-black palm.
The moment the two met in the air, the brown-black palm was stopped by the blue leaf in mid-air. The palm was turning dim swiftly as the blue leaf released thin blue silks and penetrated the palm.
When Xiong Jia saw this, he was startled.
“Poof!“
In just a few seconds, the brown-black palm became riddled with holes and collapsed. The blue bird escaped from the palm and flew towards the scar-faced muscular man in the distance.
Looking at the slightly familiar face of the woman in blue clothes and feeling the strong wood-attribute beastkin aura emanating from her, Liu Ming immediately recognized her.
The woman in blue clothes was none other than Lan Si of the Blue Wood Race whom he fought together with in the upper realm ruins decades ago.
This woman was at the Pseudo Pellet State back that, and now she had obviously succeeded in forming a pellet.
After Liu Ming pondered for a while, he didn’t make a move. Instead, he flicked his sleeve, and the purple sword light disappeared into his sleeve in an instant.
Xiong Jia’s face was gloomy now. Apparently, he was not prepared for the sudden appearance of the two. Seeing that there was no chance of winning, he gave a strange cry and transformed into a giant brown bear the size of 2 people tall. He rolled and turned into brown escape light, even leaving his people on their own demise.
“Hmph, don’t you think it’s too late to run now?” The woman in blue clothes smiled coldly and pointed toward the blue leaf in the air.
Whoosh!
The blue leaf in mid-air blurred and turned into a dozen blue vines, blasting toward Xiong Jia.
Xiong Jia seemed to sense the situation behind him. He wanted to dodge, but it was too late. The blue vines had wrapped him tightly in just a few seconds.
Xiong Jia let out a roar, and a burst of crackling sounds came from his body, trying to break free from the vines with brute force.
However, at this moment, a blue light flashed in front of him. The blue-haired middle-aged man had already appeared here at some point in time. He made a gesture with one hand, then the other arm turned into several sharp blue vines and shot at Xiong Jia’s head.
“Poof poof poof“, Xiong Jia’s head was covered with vines, and he died.
“Poof“, a fist-sized brown soul escaped from his head, wanting to fly away.
The blue-haired middle-aged man snorted, raised his other hand, and pointed toward the brown soul with a finger. His finger instantly turned into a blue vine and flashed past the soul.
After a scream, the brown soul disappeared in a puff of blue smoke.
This turn of events happened too quickly. 2 Real Pellet State beastkin cultivators who appeared on the side of the Sky Bird Clan beheaded the bandit leader and turned the tide around.
It wasn’t until the soul of Xiong Jia was eliminated that the remaining beastkin bandits barely reacted. They fled in all directions without any desire to fight.
In the following time, under the powerful intimidation of the blue-haired middle-aged man, the battle was almost one-sided. The scar-faced muscular man led the guards and wiped out the bandits who escaped slower.
The Sky Bird Race were known for their speed. If they hadn’t had the mission to guard the caravan, they would have been able to hunt down all these bandits at full speed.
At this time, Liu Ming was standing outside the wooden cart with his hands behind his back. He was not in a hurry to meet Lansi. He just smiled and looked at the woman in blue clothes.
At this moment, when the scar-faced muscular man with a respectful face flew toward the blue-haired middle-aged man and the woman in blue clothes, he happened to pass by Liu Ming.
The woman in blue clothes caught sight of Liu Ming at once, and she froze on the spot for a moment in amazement.
The blue-haired middle-aged man next to her also noticed the existence of Liu Ming. Seeing the faint purple beastkin aura emanating from his body, it was obviously impossible for him to belong to either the Blue Wood Race or the Sky Bird Clan. His face suddenly became a little displeased.
“Who is this person? Don’t you know that there should be no strangers in the caravan?” The blue-haired middle-aged man’s face turned grim. Before the scar-faced muscular man arrived, he said angrily.
“Elder Lan Qi, no need to ask. If I’m not mistaken, this person should be my acquaintance… Mr. Liu has been standing by for so long, you don’t even want to greet us now?” The woman in blue clothes frowned and slowly said in the direction of Liu Ming.
“Please forgive my rudeness. I just saw that the two of you are more than enough to take care of these bandits, so I didn’t make a fool of myself.” Liu Ming smiled slightly when he heard the words. He nodded to Qian Rupin who poked her head out, then he moved toward Lan Si.
“Mr. Liu, who is she again?” Lan Si showed a hint of doubt as she looked toward Qian Rupin.
“Oh, this is a descendant of one of my seniors, Qian Rupin.” Liu Ming landed a few meters away and said calmly.
“So it’s Mr. Liu’s junior! After we parted ways in the ruins, I didn’t expect to meet you again in the Savage Wild Continent. If you don’t mind, this dark wood carved cart has a lot of space, why don’t you come over to have a chat?” Lan Si showed a bit of joy. She turned around and whispered a few words to the blue-haired middle-aged man beside her, then she pointed to the cart beside to invite Liu Ming.
After the blue-haired middle-aged man gave Liu Ming a cold look, he didn’t say much. He took the scar-faced muscular man and flew toward the middle of the caravan on the pretext of checking the goods.
“Since this is the case, we will trouble you on our way.” Seeing this, Liu Ming was not polite. He cupped his fist and led Qian Rupin into the dark wood carved cart.
The interior space of the dark wood carved car was quite spacious. There were several rooms and a hall. The decoration was also very elegant. In addition to a carved railing table in the hall, there was also a cylindrical wood carving hanging on the roof. It depicted a lifelike spiritual bird. It emitted a cloud of misty green light that enveloped the entire cart. It seemed to be this object that shielded Divine Thought’s sensing.
“Mr. Liu seems to have also condensed the real pellet. This is really gratifying. If I hadn’t known you before, I would have been blinded by the beastkin aura on you.” Lan Si gave Liu Ming and Qian Rupin a cup of fragrant spiritual tea, sat down and said.
“It’s true that I have encountered some opportunities in these years. Didn’t Miss Lan Si also successfully condense the real pellet? By the way, seeing the respectful expressions of the people of the Sky Bird Race toward you, your status must be very special now, right?” Liu Ming casually scanned the surrounding enchantment and asked with laughter.
“Speaking of this matter, it’s thanks to Mr. Liu. After the upper realm ruins ended, our clan recaptured our sacred artifact, the Blue Wood Seal while the Shadow Wolf Race suffered heavy losses. In recent years, they also had bad developments. Thus, under the lead of a few talented members of our clan, we successfully got rid of the control of the Shadow Wolf Race and found a place to live in the area under the jurisdiction of the Blood Vine Race. Our forces have really strengthened over these years. This Sky Bird Race is a small force affiliated to our Blue Wood Clan. The goods in this caravan are rather important, so the elders asked me and Lan Qi to escort them.” Lan Si said slowly with flashing beautiful eyes.
“I was just following the trend of the situation back then. Your clan was able to get out of the predicament because of your own strength. I don’t dare to take credit for it.” Liu Ming smiled noncommittally.
Qian Rupin sat obediently at the side, drinking tea on his own and listening to the conversation between Liu Ming and Liu Ming without interrupting.
“Hehe, Brother Liu is too modest. By the way, why don’t you stay in the Middle Sky Continent and come to the Savage Wild Continent?” Lan Si giggled when she heard this, then she asked with some doubts.
“It’s a long story…” Liu Ming pondered for a while, and he didn’t hide anything. He briefly told the story of his accidental teleportation from the Yunchuan Continent to the Savage Wild Continent, then he heard that there was a yay back to Middle Sky Continent in Luo City.
After hearing these adventures of Liu Ming, even Lan Si couldn’t help being amazed. When she heard that Liu Ming wanted to return to the Middle Sky Continent, there was a hint of embarrassment in her eyes. After thinking about it, she said,
“I indeed heard about the sea-crossing giant ship that Mr. Liu said, but if I remember correctly, the recent sea-crossing giant ship just set sail a few years ago. This giant ship is actually a rare treasure. The Blood Vine Race only has one. I’m afraid that the next trip across the continent will have to wait a hundred years later.”
