Chapter 16 I Want to Hold
"These talismans..." Before Xuan Ling could finish his words, the talismans on the wall disappeared in an instant, as if they had never appeared.
Xuan Ling was puzzled: "Why is he gone?"
"Master! There seems to be someone here." Yanlong had sharp hearing and caught the slightest movement and immediately became alert.
Xuan Ling quickly turned around, walked forward a few steps, and saw a familiar figure.
"Su Ran? Why are you here too?" Xuan Ling's eyes were full of surprise.
Su Ran looked solemn: "Brother Li? Were you captured by them?" After Su Ran finished speaking, he looked at Yan Long beside him and said: "Now, they don't even let go of children without spiritual roots?"
Yanlong was already displeased when he saw that it was the pretty boy he hated.
Unexpectedly, Su Ran said that he was a child without spiritual roots, which made him even angrier. He rolled his eyes at him and snorted coldly: "Humph! You are a superficial guy."
"We came here because we met an immortal and asked for help. When we first arrived here, we didn't see the immortal but met you, Brother Su."
Xuan Ling frowned and continued, "I heard from the immortal that someone was deliberately trying to snatch the high-quality spiritual roots of practitioners. I wonder if Brother Su has heard of this?"
When the matter of spiritual roots was mentioned at this time, Su Ran's face was filled with anxiety.
"Yes, it is true! I came here for this matter. I heard some noise in the tower and came in to check."
Yanlong: Humph! You are just pretending to be nice, but you have evil intentions.
"Brother Su, there seems to be nothing here, why don't we go out and take a look. I put a tracking talisman on the immortal, we can go out and set up a formation to find out the location of this person."
Su Ran paused for a moment, then smiled politely and said, "That's great, this way we don't have to look blindly."
As he spoke, Su Ran made a gesture of invitation to Xuan Ling.
Afterwards, the two walked towards the main entrance of the tower.
At this moment, Yanlong was actually forgotten by Xuan Ling.
…
Yanlong looked at the two people hugging each other with anger. He clenched his fists tightly and wanted to hit the pretty boy right away.
Let him never again hinder his own eyesight.
What annoyed him most at this moment was that Xuan Ling actually smiled at Su Ran.
He couldn't understand why Xuan Ling, who was usually cold and aloof, would actually smile in front of this person.
This scene was like a sharp blade, constantly piercing Yanlong's heart.
He wanted to activate the benefits, but when he thought about wasting the last benefit on a pretty boy, he felt it was not worth it.
So, I decided to endure it for the time being.
Xuan Ling, you are a lustful guy. Let's see when you will remember me.
Yanlong stood there with his hands folded across his chest, his eyes tightly closed, and his brows furrowed.
Xuan Ling, who was about to leave the tower, finally remembered the Flame Dragon at this moment.
He turned around and called out, "Xiaolong? What are you doing standing there? Come here quickly."
Yanlong turned his head and ignored it.
"Oh! This little guy is angry." Su Ran said with a smile.
Yanlong pouted and said, "I can't walk anymore. I want to be held."
Xuan Ling:?
Su Ran:?
"What nonsense are you talking about? Come here by yourself? Hurry up?" Xuan Ling urged awkwardly.
"I don't... I just can't walk." Yanlong replied stubbornly.
"Little...dragon..." Xuan Ling lowered his voice with a hint of warning.
"I don't care, either you beat me to death, humph!"
The two of them were in a stalemate. Su Ran saw this and laughed, trying to ease the atmosphere, "Come here, how about uncle holding you?"
???
"Get lost!"
Yanlong said as he swung out a palm. Even though the force of this palm was so weak when it hit Su Ran, it was pitifully small.
But Yanlong was already satisfied that he could hit Su Ran.
"Heh! Brother Li? This kid has a bad temper? I wonder what is his relationship with you?" Su Ran rubbed the place where he was hit by Yanlong and said with a smile.
"I am your disciple."
"Disciple? How come you…"
Su Ran stopped talking abruptly. He didn't expect Xuan Ling to accept a disciple who didn't even have immortal roots.
"What's wrong?" Xuan Ling was puzzled by Su Ran's reaction.
"No...nothing. I'm glad to see you accept a disciple! Although this child has no spiritual roots, he should be good at serving tea and pouring water in the future."
Xuan Ling chuckled and was about to go back to persuade the angry Yanlong.
However, the stone bricks under Yanlong's feet became loose, and Yanlong fell down with his feet empty.
"Be careful...?" Xuan Ling was about to jump down to rescue, but was stopped by two dark shadows that suddenly appeared.
"Brother Li!"
Su Ran pulled Xuan Ling over, drew out the sword in his hand and wrestled with the two black shadows.
Xuan Ling took the opportunity to run to the place where the Flame Dragon disappeared, but the scene before him made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar. The originally loose stone bricks were surprisingly intact, as if the previous scene was just an illusion.
"Thousand Miles Escape Technique? Was the Flame Dragon moved away?" Xuan Ling's eyes turned cold, he stretched out his right hand, and shouted in a low voice: "Heavenly Thunder, search, and punish anyone who hurts him."
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden ring on his index finger instantly turned into a small sword surrounded by lightning and shot out.
At the same time, Su Ran also dealt with the two black shadows and said to Xuan Ling with a serious face: "Brother Li, those two black shadows are the clones of the demon race that were teleported from a distance. I'm afraid your disciple has been teleported away."
Xuan Ling remained silent, staring at the stone bricks, and said without raising his head: "Brother Su, thank you for your concern about the spiritual roots."
Su Ran frowned. He had never seen his brother Li with such an expression before. Even the tone of his voice became exceptionally cold.
"Brother Li? How about...how about I accompany you..."
Xuan Ling pretended not to hear and interrupted directly: "No need."
After he finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.
In a cave in the demon world
The Flame Dragon killed several small demons on his own, until several leading big demons joined forces to capture him and tied him to a stone pillar.
"You fox demons again? What do you want to do this time?"
"Hmph, kid, if you know what's going on, hand over the Ancient Black Iron and we'll spare your life."
A fat fox demon with a ferocious face, waving a big knife in his hand, kept threatening the Flame Dragon.
Yanlong sneered, "What black iron? I have never heard of it. Did you find the wrong person? How could someone like me who looks like a child take the black iron?"
"Hahahaha! Stop pretending here. We all saw it that day. Xuantie followed you out of the cave.
Furthermore, your portrait has already been published by our Highness. We all know the two possible appearances you can transform into. No matter which face you use, as long as we work together to cast a spell, we can find you back."
Yanlong: ???
"Your Highness? Your Highness is the Nine-tailed Yunchen who always runs away?" Yanlong said provocatively.
"You are so presumptuous, how dare you speak of our Highness like that?" The fat fox stood up angrily, took a thorny whip and lashed at the Flame Dragon, causing a string of blood to splash.
"You fat bastard, you dare to hit me? You don't want to live anymore, do you?"
"Hey! You little brat, you dare to curse me?"
Just as the fat fox was about to whip for the second time, there was a loud "crack" outside the cave.
The entire cave shook.
Fat Fox sensed something was wrong and hurriedly ordered, "Quick... go and see what's going on?"
Yanlong, who was about to activate the welfare at this time, was suddenly stunned for a moment, thinking in his heart: Heaven... Thunder? Xuan Ling came so soon? Ha! This whip was not in vain, just to make Xuan Ling feel sorry for me.
