Chapter 136 The Girl Annam

In the Jiang family's group chat, watching Jiang Beixing's smug boasting, Yan Ziyan had indeed guessed correctly.

Jiang Wanwan smiled and said, "This kid is so arrogant now, saying he's been invited to give lectures at several universities."

“Beixing has the backing of a sect and is exceptionally talented in alchemy. It’s only natural that someone as hardworking and talented as him is popular,” Yan Ziyan said seriously.

Jiang Wanwan nodded in agreement, then changed the subject and began to tell the story of the dragon.

"The dragon was severely injured while crossing the spatial rift, causing its soul to become unstable. Moreover, when it returned, it pierced the heavenly light and was frightened by Xiao Guang's lightning. After that, it hid in the secret realm and has not come out since," Jiang Wanwan said with great concern.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ziyan frowned. He knew that Shenlong's current condition was extremely dangerous, and if he did not receive timely treatment, he might fall into an even deeper slumber.

So he quickly asked, "Is there any way to help it?"

Jiang Wanwan nodded and continued, "What I've learned from the book my master gave me these past few days is that the dragon needs spiritual medicine to heal its injuries. If a suitable spiritual medicine cannot be found in time, its soul will continue to be damaged, and it may even fall into a deep sleep again."

Yan Ziyan pondered for a moment, then suddenly remembered a precious elixir—the Soul-Guiding Lotus.

So he said to Jiang Wanwan, "I remember there is a kind of spiritual medicine called Soul-Guiding Lotus, which may be able to help the dragon stabilize its soul."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanwan's eyes lit up; she thought it was a great idea.

However, finding the Soul-Guiding Lotus is not easy, because it grows at the border between the underworld and the mortal realm, a place that is not easy for ordinary people to find.

However, with Lin Weiguo, this ghost cultivator, around, it's still worth a try.

Next to a trash can outside a villa at the foot of Mount Kunomiya in Kyoto.

The setting sun cast dappled light through the gaps in the leaves, illuminating a tall, handsome man.

He was dressed in women's loungewear, his hair hanging messily over his shoulders, and his eyes revealed a hint of confusion and bewilderment.

Because of his tall and slender build, and the fact that his clothes were too small, he looked somewhat comical and funny.

Huang Sicong, who was watching from a distance, covered his mouth and laughed out loud. Then he nudged Mo Yan with his elbow and said, "Don't say that kid is a pretty boy. If he wore women's clothes and went out, he might attract a lot of boys!"

Mo Yan smiled slightly and nodded in agreement. Their interest in Bai Luo grew stronger, and they began to speculate about what he would do next.

Mo Yan guessed, "Once he's solved the clothing problem, his next step should be to go find his companions!"

As the two were discussing, a figure slowly walked towards Bai Luo.

Huang Sicong excitedly pointed at the person and said, "Look, someone's coming! I wonder if it's another strange guest?"

Mo Yan's gaze was fixed on the newcomer, and he secretly wondered if this person was related to Bai Luo.

"Hey! Kid, do you know whose territory this is? How dare you rummage through it like this?"

A voice rang out, breaking Bai Luo's thoughts.

"But why does your outfit look so awkward?"

The newcomer was a girl wearing a shiny black short-sleeved shirt, tight leather pants, with small dreadlocks and smoky makeup on her face.

At this moment, she circled around Bai Luo, her bright eyes scanning him up and down.

The girl's name was Anan, and she was a beggar in this area.

Annan took a few men's clothes out of the trash can, held them up to Bai Luo's face, then threw them at him, saying with a look of disgust:

"Forget it, take all of these. You should change out of that outfit; it's awful!"

Bai Luo was startled by the sudden appearance of the girl. Looking at An Nan's clothes, he felt out of place and even had an urge to escape.

However, he still nodded gratefully and accepted the clothes in response to Annan's kindness.

"Can I really take these?" Bai Luo asked cautiously, afraid of angering Annan.

Annan took a lollipop out of his pocket, unwrapped it, and took a bite.

Looking at Bai Luo's stunningly handsome face, she wanted to say something, but the words involuntarily changed her mind: "So it's not possible now, but what I gave you is yours."

She then added, "If I don't like what I pick, I'll keep watch for you so you can quickly pick some more. Everyone here is rich; it's common for new clothes to be thrown away."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was pleasantly surprised to find that Bai Luo had already changed her clothes. She was wearing a white Ralph Lauren polo shirt and brown cargo pants, which made her look clean and sunny.

Sure enough, being tall and having a good physique makes anything look stylish.

I looked at the black openwork sheepskin leather jacket in my hand, and it matched really well! It's just that my messy hair looks so awful!

"Is that a hood you're wearing? Come on! I'll take it off for you!"

After saying that, Annan started pulling Bai Luo's hair. Bai Luo, who hadn't reacted yet, started to grimace in pain, instantly shattering his previous image as a noble young master.

"Ouch~ That hurts!"

"Oh? Sorry!"

Annan chuckled awkwardly, stopped what he was doing, and looked at Bai Luo in front of him with some doubt in his heart.

In this day and age, there are still men with long hair. Looking at his impressive appearance and fair skin, he doesn't seem like someone who has fallen on hard times and has to pick up clothes to wear.

However, Annan only muttered a few words to himself and did not say them aloud.

When Annan saw Bai Luo neatly tie his hair into a ponytail, revealing his handsome face, he couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Wow! You're really handsome!

Hearing Annan's praise, Bai Luo's lips curled up slightly, and her face flushed a little.

"Thanks!"

"Don't thank me! Put this jacket on, I guarantee it will make you even more handsome and charming!"

Annan excitedly handed the black openwork sheepskin jacket to Bai Luo, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Bai Luo took the jacket, put it on gently, and then straightened the collar.

Annan stood aside, carefully examining Bai Luo's attire, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Hmm, not bad, very suitable! You look exactly like a rich young master now!"

Bai Luo blushed deeply, after all, this was the first time he had ever been so close to a strange woman.

Annan found his expression amusing. She asked again, "Where are you from?"

Bai Luo thought for a moment, then decided that he couldn't easily reveal his identity, so he replied, "I'm from out of town, and I ended up here."

Annan listened and nodded in understanding.

Then, she tiptoed and gently patted Bai Luo's shoulder, saying reassuringly, "Alright then, from now on, you'll follow me. As long as I have food to eat, you'll have a dish to wash!"
