Chapter 39 The ruins are on the bloody plateau, hold me tight
Pieces of dazzling light hit everyone's mind like waves.
The entire reception hall was suddenly filled with numerous colorful rare treasures, with mist surging and divine light shining, as if one had come to a treasure trove.
Spiritual stones and rare minerals, elixirs and magical fruits, magical weapons, secret scrolls of martial arts... everything is available, it's dazzling.
I'm afraid that the foundation accumulated by the four major families in Yuyi City over hundreds of years is no more than this.
The elder of the clan, who had been extremely curious about those Sumeru rings just now, also trembled. His white beard began to shake, his breathing became much faster, and the bright light in his eyes could not be concealed.
And this is just one of the treasures in the Sumeru Ring.
Su Changkong looked over, and then he was stunned, and then he looked away with great difficulty.
"Mr. Jiang, you are really rich and powerful..."
After an unknown amount of time, one of the elders swallowed and looked away reluctantly.
His words were unanimously agreed by the other elders and members of the Su family.
According to rumors, this son of the prime minister once competed with the son of a minister for an Oiran in the imperial capital's romantic place, and used his property to hit the other party, causing serious injuries.
As a result, the minister knelt outside the Prime Minister's Mansion for three days and three nights with his seriously injured son before he reluctantly begged for forgiveness.
However, although money is attractive, if you want to marry the son of the prime minister, you will probably only be reduced to a concubine. Whether it is the main wife or the co-wife, it is not possible.
For the Su family, even if she was just a concubine, it could only be considered marrying above her station.
But everyone knows that this kind of thing will only push Su Qinghan into the fire pit.
After getting married, will this second-generation rich man treat Su Qinghan well?
Everyone can say nice things, but anyone with a discerning eye can tell that what he just said is unreliable.
Considering the overall interests of the Su family, everyone naturally hopes that Su Qinghan will marry him, even if she is just a concubine. But she is the concubine of the prime minister's son.
What if one day the surname of the Great Xia Kingdom was changed to Jiang, wouldn't the Su family become royal relatives? "Qinghan, what do you think about this matter?" At that moment, several elders asked in a friendly manner.
Su Qinghan seemed to have just come back to her senses. She naturally knew what all the tribesmen were thinking at this moment.
"I will consider what Mr. Jiang said..." she said softly.
…
"Didn't you say that Su Qingyao could help you start practicing again?"
"Why don't you... marry her?"
Not long after returning to the City Lord's Mansion, a refreshing, cool and pleasant scent came from behind him.
Jiang Lan was already used to Li Mengning's elusiveness, so he just casually replied, "This news is fake."
"Fake?"
The atmosphere behind him seemed to become much colder in an instant.
Li Mengning's dark eyebrows were slightly furrowed on her face, which was covered by a veil.
Jiang Lan didn't know where the original body got this information, but now was not the time to pursue it.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Mother should have given you a realm-breaking talisman."
Li Mengning thought about it, then nodded.
"I want you to take me to the Bloody Plateau." Jiang Lan said.
After much thought, he wanted to seize the opportunity to visit the Blood Immortal Sect's ruins in advance. However, the biggest obstacle now was his cultivation strength and time.
Even if we set out now, it would take at least ten days or half a month to reach the ruins of the Blood Immortal Sect in our memory.
Besides, what kind of suitable excuse was needed to fool people? In comparison, Li Mengning was more suitable to be a tool.
She never asked about Jiang Lan's affairs. When there was nothing going on, she was so transparent that it was as if she didn't exist.
Jiang Lan, who was familiar with the plot, was very confident in her and was not afraid that she would harm herself.
"no."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Li Mengning refused and whispered, "It's dangerous there."
Jiang Lan turned around and looked at her.
The only thing that made him unhappy was that this guy was a bit stubborn and didn't listen to him.
"What... do you need? I'll bring it back to you."
Li Mengning ignored his gaze because she was wearing a veil and no emotion could be seen on her flawless fair face.
"Let's try our luck. I've heard recently that there are many opportunities on the Bloody Plateau. In broad daylight, you can see the glow of the sky, and magical objects wrapped in spiritual light flying out."
Jiang Lan retracted his gaze and said casually, "Many disciples of the sects and children of the powerful clans have gone to try their luck."
The Bloody Plateau is a dangerous area in the northern part of Danzhou County, with numerous mountains and hills, few ancient trees and yellow sand all over the sky.
It is said to be an ancient battlefield where many people died. It is surrounded by bloody mist all year round, with no sunlight visible, and many monsters and ferocious demons roaming around.
Practitioners who go there to train often die tragically, so it is regarded as a desolate place by many aristocratic sects.
Occasionally, independent practitioners and disciples from large sects would go there to hone their skills and seek opportunities.
In Jiang Lan's memory, the ruins of the Blood Immortal Sect were on the Bloody Plateau.
"Don't go."
Li Mengning frowned, and seemed to be a little confused about this issue.
But soon, her brows relaxed and she added, "I'll help you get the opportunity back."
“…”
Jiang Lan sighed imperceptibly in his heart. Why was it so troublesome to ask this guy to do something?
"I'd better let Uncle Ying take me there."
He stood up and walked out of the house.
A cool breeze, accompanied by a pleasant fragrance, blew over, and Li Mengning stood in front of him.
"Don't……"
She seemed to be very conflicted, but seeing that Jiang Lan was going to find someone else if she didn't agree, she could only whisper, "I'll take you there...but you have to listen to me..."
"The Bloody Plateau is very dangerous. I'm afraid I can't protect you."
It was rare that she spoke so much today. On weekdays, she was like a mute, either saying "hmm" or nodding and shaking her head, or just keeping silent.
Jiang Lan laughed in his heart, but he still agreed casually, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Li Mengning nodded, then waved her white little hand, and a green jade talisman that was shining with a clear light and filled with a spatial aura emerged.
Only the core disciples of the truly top-notch sects can possess the Domain-Breaking Talisman. It is extremely rare, the conditions for refining are extremely harsh, and the cost is also astonishing.
This is something that can be regarded as a life-saving trump card. At the critical moment, the talisman light will cover the whole body and it will directly escape into the void, traveling thousands of miles in a breath.
However, the Domain-Breaking Talisman is no match for Lin Fan's Eternal Tribulation Sword. Those with strong cultivation will seal off the heaven and earth and stagnate the void the moment they sense the aura of the Domain-Breaking Talisman, and will not let anyone escape easily.
However, Lin Fan's Eternal Tribulation Sword can ignore the blockade of heaven and earth, which is simply shameless.
"Let's go."
Jiang Lan estimated that it would take at least two or three domain-breaking talismans to get from Yuyi City to the Bloody Plateau. Considering Li Mengning's identity, it should be enough.
After he finishes his business, he will return a few more to her. After all, this thing can save her life.
"hold me."
Li Mengning's glass-like eyes paused on his face for a long while, and then she spoke in a low voice.
