Chapter 292 Gray Elder Does Not Need to Take Action
“If you can really get rid of Long Aotian, I can swear a vow to my inner demon and give you 100,000 spirit stones.” Bai Lan said lightly.
One hundred thousand spirit stones?
Cheng Tianfeng stood up immediately, his eyes shining with golden light.
"I......"
Before Cheng Tianfeng finished speaking, a roar with reverberation came from outside the door.
"Rebellious son!!! Shut up!!!"
The head of the Cheng family strode in angrily.
Under Cheng Tianfeng's horrified gaze, the middle-aged man grabbed Cheng Tianfeng by the collar and threw him out of the hall.
"Can the century-old foundation of my Cheng family be bought with just 100,000 spirit stones!!!" The head of the Cheng family pointed at Cheng Tianfeng's nose, cursed, flicked his sleeves, and slowly walked towards Bai Lan who was sitting in the hall. His anger had calmed down a little, and there was a hint of scrutiny in his sharp eyes.
"I think this is the Patriarch of the Cheng family. I have heard of him for a long time."
Bai Lan stood up with a smile, and while saluting, he still did not forget to pinch the talisman, the threat in his words was evident.
The middle-aged man had a cold expression on his face. He said nothing, but his spiritual power suddenly pressed down. His figure flashed and he appeared in front of Bai Lan in an instant.
The head of the Cheng family tried to snatch the talisman from Bai Lan that was enough to threaten the entire Cheng family, but failed.
"Master Cheng, robbing the younger generation of their property in public is not something a righteous cultivator would do." Bai Lan's smiling voice came from the other side.
She had already used the Mysterious Steps and dodged to hide several meters away. She then used the Jade Ruyi to block in front of her, but her hand was still tightly holding the talisman.
The head of the Cheng family had a gloomy expression. After failing once, he no longer dared to take any other action.
The fact that he failed to snatch the talisman in the first place showed that the other party was not an ordinary cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He was already at a disadvantage in the first round, and the female cultivator would definitely be wary from now on.
If he dared to act rashly again and angered the female cultivator, she would probably detonate the talisman immediately.
The head of the Cheng family never imagined that Bai Lan's spiritual consciousness was not at the second level of the Foundation Establishment Period, but that his spiritual consciousness strength was close to the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Period!
Moreover, under the pressure of his spiritual consciousness in the early stage of Jindan, the other party was still able to move freely, as if he had practiced some spiritual and soul-related exercises.
"Master Cheng, there was once a Jindan cultivator who wanted to use the pressure of his spiritual sense to restrain me, and then take the talisman from my hand. Guess what the final outcome was?" Bai Lan said with a smile.
"You are so bold that you actually dare to attack Young Master." Cannon Fodder stepped forward and spoke in a cold voice.
Bai Lan smiled and raised his hand to stop the system: "Mr. Hui, there is no need to take action. We came here uninvited today, which is impolite. It is understandable that the head of the Cheng family is upset."
"Hmph, this will not happen again. If you dare to disrespect the Young Pavilion Master again, I will take action."
The system snorted coldly upon hearing this and retreated again.
The gray-robed old man played by the system stood behind Bai Lan, with his hands behind his back, like a door god.
The head of the Cheng family slowly turned his gaze to the two people behind Bai Lan. One of the gray-robed men was only at the Qi Refining Stage and was not to be feared.
But the other old man in gray robe... He subconsciously extended his spiritual sense to investigate the other party's cultivation level, and his expression froze the next second.
He couldn't figure out that person's cultivation level at all!
With his cultivation level at the Jindan stage, he couldn't detect the other party's cultivation level... This person was either a powerful person at the late Jindan stage, or a great power at the Yuanying stage!
“Besides, if you take action, the entire Hongyan City may be in danger. If things really need to be resolved with force, the talismans bestowed by the ancestor will be enough.” Bai Lan glanced at the system with a smile, and the tone of his voice made the head of the Cheng family feel nervous.
Ning Yan smiled and took out a spiritual fruit from somewhere and stuffed it into Bai Lan's mouth: "Young Master is really kind-hearted~"
"Don't make a fuss, Master. I'm doing something serious." Bai Lan brushed Ning Yan's hand away and turned his gaze to the Patriarch of the Cheng family: "Patriarch Cheng, now, can you and I sit down and have a good talk?"
The head of the Cheng family met Bai Lan's smiling eyes, then looked at the talisman in her hand that contained the aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, and his heart tightened again.
“Ahahahaha.” He laughed awkwardly twice: “I didn’t know your identity before. I didn’t expect that you are the Young Master of Tianji Pavilion. I’m sorry for offending you before. I hope the Young Master will forgive me, forgive me.”
"It's okay, it's okay." Bai Lan looked very easy to talk to, not caring at all about the little friction just now.
The two of them exchanged some pleasantries and then sat down, as if the confrontation just now had never occurred.
Bai Lan smiled and pointed at Cheng Tianfeng who was hiding outside the pillars in the distance and watching what was going on inside. He smiled and said, "It was just a small bet I made with your young master before. Now that I won, I came here in person to collect the bet."
"My madam has already told me about this matter, but this technique..." The face of the head of the Cheng family was slightly stiff.
"Hmm?" A slightly threatening voice came from the system.
"What? Looking at the expression of Master Cheng, is it possible that he is unwilling?" Bai Lan said with a smile, playing with the talisman in his hand.
"Ah, no, no, no, how could that be? I have to accept the defeat. Since it was my son's fault, I, as his father, should bear the consequences." The head of the Cheng family sighed slightly, glared at Cheng Tianfeng outside, and had to raise his hand to hand a jade slip to Bai Lan.
"This is the ancestral technique of my Cheng family, a top-grade earth-level technique, the True Yang Technique."
Bai Lan's eyes lit up. After getting the technique, he first saved it on the spot, then quickly left Cheng Mansion with the three of them and found a secluded place to study the technique.
Then read the file back.
This time, Bai Lan did not take the jade slip, but slowly stood up under the puzzled gaze of the head of the Cheng family.
"Sure enough, sure enough, I knew it, I knew it!!!" Bai Lan looked at the head of the Cheng family with a hint of surprise in his tone.
The Cheng family's patriarch was frightened by Bai Lan's movements: "Young friend, what are you doing?"
"Excuse me, senior, where did the Cheng family get this technique?" Bai Lan looked at the head of the Cheng family expectantly.
This expression no longer looks like a bully who came to ask for martial arts skills, but instead looks like... someone who came to recognize his relatives?
The head of the Cheng family was puzzled by the question: "This technique was obtained by my Cheng family ancestor from a secret place..."
"Secret realm? It turns out that it was obtained from the secret realm..." Bai Lan's expression became disappointed again: "Alas, I thought I found it, but I didn't expect, alas..."
