Chapter 524: Going To The Rescue In Carefree City (3)
“Is it a barrier? It’s okay. Let’s go!” Leng Ruoxue said confidently. There shouldn’t be a problem with the enchantment!
“Yes, Master. Come with me!” Quill said softly and flew in front to lead the way.
After turning left and right, Leng Ruoxue and the others arrived at a relatively remote corner of the Alchemist Association. There was only one room there. Moreover, the house looked very old from the outside. The walls were covered in mottled marks, and there were two guards guarding the door.
“Empty, can you break this barrier and not let the owner of the barrier know?” Leng Ruoxue asked softly after walking to the door.
“Yes.” Empty snorted. It was not difficult for him even though this barrier was set up by the Mystic Supremacy.
“Then I’ll leave it to you,” Leng Ruoxue said. It would be much easier for them to save people if they didn’t let the owner of the barrier discover them!
“Xue’er is actually being polite with me,” Empty said, a little unaccustomed.
“Yes, you’re the main force now!” The main labor force! Leng Ruoxue added with a chuckle in her heart.
“It’s good that you know.” Empty was quite smug upon hearing Leng Ruoxue mentioning that. Hehe, Xue’er finally realized how important he was, right?
“Stop thinking so much. Hurry up and do it!” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help urging him seeing that he was still being so smug.
“Yes, Miss.” Empty mimicked Feng Da and the others. He directly cast a few spells and then the barrier blocking Leng Ruoxue and the others was broken.
Leng Ruoxue and the others quietly slipped into the room without any obstruction…
After entering the room, Leng Ruoxue and the others saw the little old man trapped in the room. He was sitting in front of the table with a worried frown, thinking about something.
“Grandpa Du!” Leng Ruoxue called out softly.
“Who is it? Is it Xue’er?” the little old man asked excitedly when he heard a familiar voice. However, he didn’t find anyone after looking around. Alas! Could it be that he was locked up silly and had an illusion? That girl shouldn’t have found this place so quickly!
“Grandpa Du!” Leng Ruoxue called out again. Haha, Grandpa Du’s expression was so interesting!
“Xue’er, where are you?” the little old man said in surprise. It was Xue’er’s voice, right? He really heard it this time!
“Grandpa Du, I’m right in front of you. I’m invisible. You can’t see me,” Leng Ruoxue explained.
“Lass, is it really you?” the little old man said happily. Haha, he didn’t expect Xue’er to find him so quickly. It was great!
“Yes, Grandpa Du. I’m here to save you. Where is Zheng En?” Leng Ruoxue asked in puzzlement. Why weren’t they locked up together?
“Alas! Zheng En was locked up in the cell of the Sun family by that bastard Sun Wei. I really don’t know why he hates Zheng En so much. My poor disciple will probably die since he fell into his hands!” the little old man said worriedly. Alas! It was all his fault for being useless. He couldn’t even save his disciple, but he was actually locked up and had to be saved by the lass. To think he was a Mystic Supremacy. How embarrassing!
“Locked Sun Zhou City?” Leng Ruoxue asked in surprise.
“No, it should be the Sun family’s yard in Carefree City. By the way, Lan Ning’er has also come to Carefree City,” the little old man said.
“Uh! Why is she here? I thought she didn’t have the face to walk around.” Leng Ruoxue said in surprise. Last time, Lan Ning’er’s clothes were burned down by Big Sister Ling’er and she dragged her around Blue Cloud City. At that time, Leng Ruoxue thought that Lan Ning’er would be too ashamed to face anyone anymore. She didn’t expect her to come to Carefree City!
“She heard that I’m here, so she specially came to find me to be her disciple. She’s coming to convince me almost every day now, but I can’t be bothered with her!” the little old man said disdainfully. Hmph! With his impression of Lan Ning’er in Blue Cloud City, it would be impossible for him to take her in even if he didn’t take in disciples.
“Oh, is she still counting on you as her master so that she can improve her status?” Leng Ruoxue said understandingly. Lan Ning’er’s status in the Lan family had probably fallen drastically after the previous incident. It was no wonder she was in a hurry to find a backer. The little old man would really be a good choice if he wasn’t locked up here. Uh! She had to say that Lan Ning’er had good taste! However, could Lan Ning’er have a way to get the little old man out?
“Yes, and she said that if I accepted her as my disciple, she would get Sun Wei to let me go,” the little old man pouted and said nonchalantly.
“Could it be that the two of them have reached some kind of agreement?” A cold light flashed quickly in Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes, shooting out sharp killing intent! She was right.
“Yes, it should be.” The little old man nodded slightly in agreement.
“Master, I’m here.” Speak of the devil. Just as Leng Ruoxue was chatting with the little old man, Lan Ning’er’s voice sounded from outside the room. Immediately after, Lan Ning’er pushed open the door and walked in directly.
After Lan Ning’er entered the room, she came directly to the little old man, bowed respectfully, and said with a smile, “Master, how are you today? Disciple came to see you again!”
“Don’t call me Master. I, an old beggar, can’t afford to take in the daughter of the Lan family!” The little old man turned his head to the side. He didn’t want to see Lan Ning’er at all.
“Master is still angry with disciple. At that time, disciple didn’t know Master’s identity! In fact, I’m quite respectful to you, Master,” Lan Ning’er explained, a rare trace of shyness appearing on her beautiful face!
“I don’t care. What’s there to be angry about?” the little old man said coldly. At the same time, he was annoyed. He couldn’t understand why this Lan Ning’er was so thick-skinned. Didn’t she know what rejection was?
“Master, don’t be angry with your disciple anymore since you don’t care,” Lan Ning’er said casually and pretended to be very obedient in an attempt to attract the little old man’s favor!
“I don’t care about you. Of course I won’t be angry with you,” the little old man said bluntly.
“Master, I saved you. Otherwise, do you think you can stay here safely? Do you know how miserable that Zheng En is? Sun Wei beat him up every day to vent his hatred. Alas! I believe that Zheng En will die in a few days,” Lan Ning’er gloated. The words ‘I’m your savior’ were clearly written on her beautiful face.
