Chapter 62 Yun Zheng might be the third brother

Deep inside the City Lord's Mansion, in the dark training room, Li Xiaoran suddenly opened his eyes, and the strange spiritual power lingering around his body slowly died down.

His clothes were soaked with sweat, but there was a strange sense of satisfaction on his face.

At first, he was full of resistance to the "special training" imposed by the moody General Wudao. The skills in this ghost place were eerie and strange, which was incompatible with his righteous and mysterious ways.

But soon, he was surprised to find that the operation of this strange step method had produced a strange resonance with the power he accidentally obtained in the land of no return. That power was overbearing, primitive, and difficult to control.

The method taught by General Wudao was like a key that opened the door to controlling this power. Every time it was used, the power became more condensed and more flexible.

He even felt that his bottleneck was showing signs of loosening.

"It seems that you have adapted well." A cold and majestic voice suddenly sounded in the empty training room, carrying with it an unquestionable sense of oppression.

The figure of General Wudao appeared in the shadows at some point, his outline was blurred, only his eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. Li Xiaoran's heart trembled, he bowed respectfully, and did not answer.

"Your junior sister is here." General Wudao's voice was calm, as if he was stating a trivial matter.

Li Xiaoran raised his head suddenly, a flash of unbelievable joy flashed in his eyes, and then it was replaced by worry. Why did Xiaobai come here? This ghostland is extremely dangerous.

"Take her and that noisy boy away from here." General Wu Dao continued, his tone still calm. "Go to Huangquan City, there is a way back for you." Li Xiaoran was stunned. They let him go?

"As for your sister." General Wudao paused, his eyes seemed to penetrate the barrier of space.

"This general has found a master for her. When the time comes, you two will meet each other." Li Xiaoran's heart skipped a beat. Sister, this is great. He thought he would not hear from her again. The huge surprise almost made him lose his composure.

"Thank you, Senior." His voice was trembling. General Wu Dao seemed not to hear him and continued to speak slowly.

Those few words, like thunder, exploded in Li Xiaoran's mind. Every word contained earth-shattering secrets, overturning his past cognition. Is that so? No wonder, no wonder.

He staggered back a step, his face pale, his eyes filled with shock and horror.

The figures of the five generals have quietly disappeared into the darkness, as if they had never appeared.

Only those cold words and those shocking secrets still echoed in his ears and heart. Li Xiaoran stood there for a long time before he came back to his senses.

The huge amount of information hit his mind, making him a little dazed for a moment. No, now is not the time to think about these things.

Those secrets are too important and involve too many things. With his current strength, knowing them would be useless and might even bring him fatal disaster.

He must become strong, strong enough to protect the people he wants to protect and to explore the truths that are hidden.

His eyes gradually became firm, Li Xiaoran took a deep breath and suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart.

The most urgent task was to find Xiaobai and Yan Jinjin and take them away from this haunted place. He tidied up his slightly messy clothes, pushed open the heavy stone door, and walked out.

The sunlight was a bit dazzling on the street outside the City Lord's Mansion. He saw the two familiar figures at a glance.

Xiao Bai, with two cute buns on her head, was looking around curiously. Yan Jinjin, who was standing next to her, was still making a lot of noise, gesturing at something, making Xiao Xiao laugh.

The moment he saw them, the heaviness and coldness in Li Xiaoran's heart caused by the secret seemed to be instantly dispelled. A warm current surged into his heart.

That’s great. At least now, the person he wants to protect is right in front of him, safe and sound.

"Second Senior Brother." Yan Jinjin had sharp eyes and was the first to notice him. He immediately waved and shouted excitedly.

"Second Brother, are you okay? Didn't that Five Dao General do anything to you?"

Xiaobai also saw him. His clear big eyes lit up instantly, and he ran over with his short legs.

"Second Senior Brother, I miss you so much." She threw herself into Li Xiaoran's arms, her voice soft and dependent. Li Xiaoran squatted down, hugged the little body tightly, and patted Yan Jinjin's shoulder who rushed over.

"I'm fine." His voice was slightly hoarse, but more of it was the joy of reunion.

"That's great. I was scared to death." Yan Jinjin patted his chest, looking still frightened. "I thought I had to break into the City Lord's Mansion to rescue you." Li Xiaoran looked at his two junior brothers and sisters. A hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, but then he became serious.

"We have to go now." He stood up, his tone carrying an unmistakable sense of urgency.

"We can't stay here for long. We must rush to Huangquan City as soon as possible." Yan Jinjin was stunned: "Huangquan City? What are we going there for?"

Xiaobai also raised his little head and looked at him curiously. "General Wudao said that there is a way for us to leave the ghost realm."

Li Xiaoran explained concisely, and glanced around with a vigilant look. Although the five generals were relieved, there were too many variables in the ghost domain.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go." Yan Jinjin reacted immediately and urged.

Li Xiaoran nodded, took Xiaobai's hand with one hand, and motioned Yan Jinjin to follow with the other hand. "Let's go to Huangquan City."

Xiaobai hesitated, she didn't know how to talk about her third senior brother.

[What should I do? I can't find my third brother. Leaving here would be irresponsible to him. But how can I tell him about his affairs? How can I explain to a person I've never met, whose information I know?]

Xiaobai was very conflicted.

Li Xiaoran and Yan Jinjin looked at each other inconspicuously, and finally Yan Jinjin understood the hint this time.

"By the way, Second Senior Brother, didn't you say earlier that Third Senior Brother might appear in Ziyun City? Do you think it is possible that he also has a channel to come to the underworld?" Yan Jinjin finally opened the conversation without leaving a trace.

"Yes, I would have forgotten if I hadn't mentioned it. The demonic poison that Third Senior Brother was infected with is very special when it breaks out. I seem to have heard Elder Liu say that there is a herb that is related to the underworld."

Xiaobai became even more depressed after listening to this.

[How can I say that the Third Senior Brother has indeed come, and has entered the path of evil and become a demon? ]

Xiaobai's inner voice frightened the two of them at once.

Li Xiaoran wondered if the information Junior Sister knew this time was biased, after all, Third Junior Brother was really weak.

Even if he really entered the devil's way, how could he become the Demon Lord?

Yan Jinjin also felt that it was impossible. Although she had never met the third senior brother, he had a very good reputation in the sect.

Moreover, the entire sect knows that the third senior brother has a gentle personality and is polite to others. It is also said that the third senior brother is in poor health and cannot even fight. It is impossible for the demon clan to do so.

[Oh, I'm so worried. I can't contact Jin Shu either. Where is Third Brother? Let me save you from your mistake.]

"By the way, Second Senior Brother, can you tell me in detail why Third Senior Brother's illness is so special?"

"I'm not really sure, but one time Third Junior Brother suddenly got sick and ran away. He was very strange. How should I describe it?

He, a man who did not kill, skinned a low-level monster with a knife in the back mountain.

And when I talked to him, he was very strange, it was like he was the same person, but it was like a completely different person inside.

Later, the master came and took my third junior brother away, and told me not to tell anyone about this.

What’s even more strange is that a few days later I saw that Third Junior Brother was well again, just like what I said before that I was hallucinating.”

Xiaobai seemed to have thought of something as she described it. He turned around and looked behind him, but he couldn't see the figure he was looking for.

[Wait, the Yun Zheng we met is most likely the Third Senior Brother. The one I saved before was the Third Senior Brother, and the ungrateful wolf behind should be the one in the Third Senior Brother's body. Damn, why is this follower missing again now? ]

Li Xiaoran and Yan Jinjin were even more surprised after hearing this. Li Xiaoran's brain reacted quickly and he knew that the evil poison in Third Junior Brother was not ordinary.

Either a demon seed was planted in his body, or the two selves, one good and one evil, were stimulated within him.

If that's the case, it makes sense.

Xiaobai and the others didn’t know that after following Xiaobai and Yan Jinjin for a while, Yun Zheng felt more and more uncomfortable and simply stopped following them, so he didn’t see Li Xiaoran, otherwise he would have known.
