Ran Changle's angry eyes suddenly glared at Shang Lu.
"That look is too scary." Shang Lu frowned slightly, and a Nascent Soul pressure surrounded Ran Changle. He whispered, "I have important things to investigate with Lu Ke. He can't be in any trouble for the time being. Don't try to hit him anymore."
"You said not to attack him, so I have to listen to you? You have important things to do, and so do I."
Ran Changle resisted the pressure from Shang Lu and said stubbornly.
She had finally gotten news about her tribe, so how could she give up the investigation just because of his words?
Shang Lu didn't expect that Ran Changle would dare to resist under his dangerous aura. Thinking that she was Wen Ye's junior sister after all, he patiently explained more.
"I don't know what you want to get from Lu Ke, or what information you want to find out. I can only tell you that the matter in the Fourth Elder's Mansion is far more complicated and serious than you can imagine, and it is not something you can get involved in.
For the sake of your life, you should stop early and let Wen Ye and I handle it."
Ran Changle's eyes flashed and he asked, "What's your name? Are you familiar with Fourth Brother?"
"Shang Lu, very familiar." Shang Lu crossed his arms and looked at Ran Changle meaningfully and said, "What else do you want to know?"
Ran Changle smiled awkwardly and asked, "What did you find out?"
Shang Lu didn't answer, and his handsome smiling face suddenly approached her.
Ran Changle didn't know what he was going to do and leaned back subconsciously.
“Boom.”
His head hit the wall behind him. Ran Changle rubbed his painful head with his hand and looked up at him resentfully.
Shang Lu chuckled maliciously: "I won't tell you."
"..." Ran Changle rolled his eyes at him and muttered softly, "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Why are you scaring me all of a sudden?"
Shang Lu took a step back, put away his smile, and said expressionlessly: "I warn you again, stay away from the people in the Fourth Elders' Mansion. If you affect my plan, I will be the first one to not let you go."
His tone was very calm, but Ran Changle could hear a sinister tone in it. She believed that if she did anything to Lu Ke again, he would really kill her.
But it was impossible for her to give up investigating the whereabouts of her people.
Thinking of his free access to the Fourth Elder's Mansion, she looked Shang Lu in the eye and said firmly, "I can leave the people in the Fourth Elder's Mansion alone, but I want to know the news about the Spirit Blood Clan. If possible, it would be even better if I could meet them in person."
Shang Lu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll contact you in two days."
As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared into the darkness.
Ran Changle's pupils constricted. This concealment spell was really weird, but it worked.
Since Shang Lu was willing to help, there was no need to go to Xiangyue Tower to inquire about the news. After leaving the alley, she returned to her own yard.
Two days later, Ran Changle didn't expect that the owner of Xiangyue Tower would contact her and invite her to visit Xiangyue Tower.
She didn't have much interaction with the owner of Xiangyue Tower, so she guessed that it was probably not the owner of Xiangyue Tower who was looking for her, but Lu Ke.
After going up to the second floor and walking to the innermost room, Ran Changle was about to knock on the door when it opened from the inside.
"Songluo is here, come in quickly." The host stepped to the side of the door and said with a smile.
Ran Changle nodded to the owner of the post, walked in, and saw Lu Ke as expected.
Unlike his last indifference, this time when he saw Ran Changle, he immediately stood up from the stool, walked up to her enthusiastically and called out, "Junior Sister Wei, you're finally here."
"Brother Lu." Ran Changle greeted him, then turned to look at the host and asked, "Master, what brings you here today?"
The host came to Lu Ke, patted his shoulder and said, "It's not me who's looking for you, it's Lu Ke who's looking for you. You two have a good chat, I'll go prepare some wine and food for you."
After the host left, Lu Ke asked hurriedly without waiting for Ran Changle to sit down, "Junior Sister Wei, do you still have any spirit fish?"
Hearing Lu Ke ask this and remembering what Shang Lu said, Ran Changle guessed that the spirit fish he gave to Lu Ke last time might have been taken away by Shang Lu.
It seems that Shang Lu has a high status in the Fourth Elders' Mansion, so he should be able to do what he promised her.
Ran Changle glanced at Lu Ke, who looked anxious, and sat down at the table. He picked up the kettle on the table and poured himself a glass of water. After taking a sip, he said slowly, "I don't have any more spirit fish."
"Is it really gone? Can you still fish?"
Lu Ke sat opposite Ran Changle and asked questions one after another.
Wei Songluo didn't know what secret she had, but the spirit fish she gave him was different from those given by others. The mysterious substance extracted from the spirit fish she gave him was twice as much as the original one.
Ran Changle said with embarrassment, "Brother Lu, you know it's hard to catch spirit fish. Sometimes you might not even catch one in a month. The last time I gave you was my year's supply. Could it be that you've already used up all seven spirit fish?"
Mentioning this Lu Ke makes me angry. There were seven spirit fish! But he only got one.
It’s all Shang Lu’s fault. I will definitely kill him when his cultivation level improves.
He could only helplessly say, "It's all used up. I wonder if Junior Sister Wei can give me another spiritual fish like the one I got last time. The price is negotiable."
Ran Changle asked in confusion, "What about that spirit fish from last time? We both caught it from the stream outside the city. What's the difference?"
Lu Ke rubbed his hands, pondered for a moment, and said, "The mysterious substance extracted from the spirit fish we caught last time is twice as much as that from other spirit fish. Junior Sister Wei, do you still remember where you caught that spirit fish last time?"
Ran Changle lowered his eyes, it seemed that it was the effect of the golden rune.
She took another sip of tea, looked up at Lu Ke and said, "I can still go fishing. I wonder what Senior Brother Lu is going to exchange for it. I haven't paid for the spirit fish last time."
Hearing this, Lu Ke's eyes turned cold and he wanted to kill Shang Lu again.
Two bottles of mysterious substances were extracted from this spirit fish. One bottle was given to the master, and he planned to exchange the other bottle for another spirit fish and other things.
Who knew that bastard Shang Lu would steal his last bottle of mysterious substance.
Lu Ke's expression changed, and he finally said with a bit of frustration and helplessness: "Can I owe you a month first? I will definitely deliver the mysterious substance to you next month."
After thinking for a moment, he held up two fingers and said, "I'll give you two bottles."
"Brother Lu." Ran Changle chuckled. "You still owed me from last time. How can I be sure you'll be able to give it to me this time?"
Lu Ke sighed and said, "Junior Sister Wei, I can use spirit stones..."
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Ran Changle: "Brother Lu, don't forget that my grandfather is the Fifth Elder. I have no shortage of spirit stones, and I also have no shortage of ordinary things."
Lu Ke was depressed.
He usually doesn't like to practice cultivation, and he doesn't have any spiritual objects or elixirs that can help with cultivation. However, Ran Changle clearly wants something that can improve his cultivation.
He stood up and paced around the room, thinking about what else he could offer.
Seeing that he had walked back and forth for a long time without coming up with anything, Ran Changle's eyes flashed and he said, "I have always been curious about the Fourth Elder's residence. If Senior Brother Lu can take me to visit the Fourth Elder's residence, I will give Senior Brother Lu a spirit fish. How about it?"
