She lay on the ground, panting, completely exhausted. She was so tired; she had been fighting and traveling non-stop that she hadn't had a chance to catch her breath.
She transformed into human form, took out the pastries that Zhao Zhishan had prepared for her before she left, and began to eat them in large bites.
"Aww! Waaah, Third Senior Brother is so thoughtful! This pastry is so delicious!" She cried as she ate the still-warm red bean cake, replenishing her strength, and her heart felt warm too. After finishing it in a few bites, she closed her eyes to rest, feeling the spiritual energy around her slowly drawing closer to her.
The spiritual energy here is so rich that it cannot be ignored. Putting aside other factors, this place is really suitable for cultivation, especially for a non-human cultivator like her.
Ah, I don't know when it started, but she has actually gotten used to thinking of herself as a cultivator.
A proper dragon cub who is also a cultivator.
After finishing the pastries, the others woke up and saw a baby sitting cross-legged on the ground with crumbs still on its lips.
Everyone looked at the baby with curiosity.
Judging from the horns on her head, she is the little white dragon from before. She's so cute!
Nian Wanzhou felt her scalp tingle from the scrutinizing gaze, and inwardly screamed: "Help! Stop looking at me!"
Fortunately, the Fifth Elder came to the rescue.
"Wanwan, are you alright?" The Fifth Elder stood beside Nian Wanzhou. She had also been knocked unconscious by the beam of light, leaving only a little baby to guard them.
She came because she was afraid someone would try to take advantage of the baby, and she wanted to support the baby.
There were several people present whose cultivation levels were similar to hers, so she still had to be on guard, especially since this brat still cherished the little white dragon and was still foolish.
"I'm fine, Fifth Elder." Nian Wanzhou immediately hugged the Fifth Elder's leg tightly, avoiding the stares directed at her, looking exactly like a shy little baby.
The Fifth Elder still remembers how shy and timid Nian Wanzhou was when they first met, but now they are quite familiar with each other.
It will take at least a month in between.
"Senior Brother is here, very close." The magical artifact on Nian Wanzhou's wrist lit up, its light being blue, indicating that Senior Brother had arrived!
They must be here to rescue their senior sister, hehehe.
Unfortunately, she was too happy too soon, because when Song Yan arrived with the aid, he was accompanied by a very important person.
A woman who was infatuated with him and was rescued by him on the way.
She was incredibly beautiful, with eyes that seemed to overflow with affection as she gazed at Song Yan with tenderness and longing.
Such a beauty, anyone who sees her would want to protect her.
Nian Wanzhou immediately recognized it; this was the kind of romantic luck that male protagonists in novels often have.
That familiar taste!
The story revolves around a male protagonist who, while on a training expedition, accidentally saves a beautiful woman from a romantic encounter. The woman falls head over heels in love with him, then becomes entangled with him, becoming jealous and plotting against him.
Ha, what's meant to happen will happen, right?
With her seemingly ordinary yet brilliant friend protecting the couple, this kind of scenario won't happen. She focuses on her own favorites and doesn't randomly pair up any couples!
Song Yan glanced at her, then looked away, coldly saying, "Miss Li, disciples from all the major sects are here. See if you recognize anyone. I have other matters to attend to and cannot keep you company."
Then he turned around and abandoned the beauty, heading straight for Wei Wenru.
"Disciple Song Yan greets Fifth Elder!" Before anxiously seeing Wei Wenru, he still had to bow to the Fifth Elder, but unexpectedly noticed the Fifth Elder's leg ornament. "Junior Sister? What are you doing here...?"
Nian Wanzhou happily hugged Song Yan's leg: "Senior Brother!" Master has been captured by a monster again...
Ahem, no, I've got the wrong channel.
"Go check on my senior sister quickly! She was attacked while saving me and hasn't woken up yet!" She hurriedly urged Song Yan to go to Wei Wenru's side and explain the situation.
Let's call our senior brother over first. Judging from his behavior, he seems to be quite sensible; at least he didn't abandon his senior sister to chat with that woman or anything.
Song Yan frowned, it seemed his premonition was right, Wen Ru was indeed in trouble.
He turned and glanced at the woman with watery eyes, her gaze chillingly cold. If she hadn't delayed him halfway, he would have already brought his men to provide support.
But he was the one who saved the person, so he brought about any problems; he can't blame anyone else.
"Senior Sister." Song Yan carefully helped Wei Wenru up and called her softly. Fortunately, the fluctuations in spiritual energy were normal; she had just fainted from exhaustion.
However, Song Yan sensed a powerful force emanating from Wei Wenru, which he hadn't felt before.
Moreover, that force was very gentle.
He reached out and touched her, discovering that the spiritual energy within Wei Wenru's body was relatively pure.
"Junior Sister, rest here for a while and keep watch for me." He helped Wei Wenru into his arms, then sat behind her, channeling his spiritual energy into her to help her recover.
Wei Wenru used up all her spiritual power, so she couldn't absorb all of that power. It would probably take her four or five days to absorb it all.
All the disciples who were thrown into the secret realm have now been found, and everyone is preparing to heal their wounds and meditate for a while before retreating.
Therefore, Song Yan's move was not particularly conspicuous.
However, the perfect couple inevitably attracts attention, and Wei Wenru is the most talented disciple here, so she has attracted the attention of others.
Instead, everyone was more interested in seeing what the relationship was between Song Yan and that woman, and whether any dramatic events would unfold.
Unfortunately, it didn't come through after waiting for a long time.
Ignoring the friendly demeanor of Song Yan and Nian Wanzhou, they didn't press for details, instead secretly observing this little dragon cub, Nian Wanzhou.
Nian Wanzhou... squatted to the side playing with the small wooden stick she had snatched. The straight stick was wielded with great force by her.
It's just like any other excellent ritual implement.
The little wooden stick was covered with life, but that was about it; in short, it was just something to look at.
Dragons are known for their collecting habits, aren't they?
Could this be the little brat that the dragon cub collected...? Everyone looked at the little wooden stick with disdain, but seeing that the dragon cub was having fun, they didn't say anything.
After all, he's just a child; it's probably just a child's fun.
What's so funny about that!
Song Yan channeled some spiritual energy into Wei Wenru's body, confirming that she was alright and about to wake up, before getting up, carrying her on his back, and retreating with the main force back to the sect.
Nian Wanzhou, swinging her little wooden stick, followed behind with great spirit. It was finally time to go back!
