Ye Lan's words silenced Xiao Yunting again.
“…”
It would be understandable if Xiao Yunting was powerless and cheated when he was a child, but after he seized power in the Xiao family at the age of fifteen, he was able to cover the sky with one hand and visited many ancient doctors.
Except for the legendary Xuanzong Sect Master who had been in seclusion, all ancient doctors had asserted that he could not practice ancient martial arts in this lifetime.
When the girl told the result, it sounded as if those world-famous ancient doctors had become quacks.
However, Ye Lan just made a casual comment and quickly changed the subject to talk about another thing.
"Are you familiar with the Hunter Region?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunting paused for a moment, perhaps because the pain was too intense or something else, and then said in a low voice, "Well, what do you want to know?"
Seeing that he had asked the right person, Ye Lan didn't hide anything and simply told him about the last incident with the Bai family. "Aside from Xiao's biological company, are there any other drugs that can quickly transform one's physique and practice ancient martial arts?"
"..." Xiao Yunting was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then gave an answer, "As far as I know, no."
Ye Lan frowned, "That's strange."
Apart from the Xiao family, who else could be behind this?
Xiao Yunting glanced at her slightly sideways and found that the girl was looking down at him, pondering the answer without a doubt about him. He was touched for some reason and blurted out, "I'll help you check."
Ye Lan didn't expect him to say that. He was stunned for a moment and then shook his head to refuse. "I heard that the background of the Hunter District is very mysterious and the person behind the scenes is very powerful. You are just a businessman. It's better not to take the risk."
The Hunter District and X were established almost at the same time. After several generations of power changes, they have now become two special areas independent of ancient martial arts.
The Hunter Zone focuses on killing people.
X focuses on trade.
The two are interrelated yet completely independent. The person in power always hides behind the scenes, but each one is extremely powerful. Except for not daring to provoke the ancient martial arts world, these two places can almost have the power of life and death over ordinary people.
Ye Lan just asked about the situation casually and didn't want Xiao Yunting to take any risks.
The man didn't say anything good or bad when he heard it. He seemed to be in great pain and gradually closed his eyes and forced himself into a state of meditation.
Enter into meditation.
Seeing this, Ye Lan also looked at him with interest. After a few minutes, he found that the other person's breathing was really gradually calming down. He couldn't help but sigh: After this recovery, I'm afraid that this person will make rapid progress once he enters the ranks of cultivation, and will leave behind countless dull people who have practiced hard for many years.
Half an hour later, the acupuncture was finally over.
Ye Lan removed all the golden needles and felt the man's pulse again, saying with satisfaction, "The remaining poison has been cleared, and your meridians have widened several times. Your strength should be much greater now."
After saying that, Xiao Yunting also slowly sat up with the help of the low couch.
After he recovered from the pain, he picked up the glass dessert bowl on the table and squeezed it with a little force.
Click, click.
The glass bowl immediately shattered into pieces in his hand, and because of the great force and speed of the shattering, the glass turned into powder without hurting the skin at all.
Looking at the powder on the ground, Xiao Yunting's eyes flashed with surprise, because he had only used less than 30% of his strength. If he used all his strength, the effect would be even more amazing.
"Not bad." Ye Lan nodded with satisfaction and sent a message to A Yue to bring hot water.
After putting away the golden needles, A Yue just came in with hot water. She was a little puzzled to see that the person in the room who was dressed neatly was Ye Lan instead of Xiao Yunting.
Before she got married, her mother had taught her that it was painful for a woman the first time. But why did she feel that the person she was hurting was a little off...
Xiao Yunting had great composure and was not frightened by her unusual way of walking. He wet the towel, wiped the sweat off his body, and put on his suit again.
At this moment, Ah Yue noticed something strange about the other person and looked at Ye Lan and asked, "Why do I feel like he has become much stronger?"
Yin objects have a very keen sense of living people and can tell the difference almost by smelling their scent.
"Really?" Ye Lan raised an eyebrow, and an idea suddenly occurred to him. "How about you two have a competition?"
Competition?
Ah Yue was stunned for a moment, "Let a ghost king fight a mortal, aren't you afraid that I will beat him to death?"
Could it be that the master of my contract is a scumbag who is thrown away after use?
However, before she could finish her shock, she heard Ye Lan slowly reply, "Whether you can beat him or not is still a matter of debate."
Ah Yue: “…”
That's a bit insulting.
After all, she has been practicing for thousands of years, and now she is a ghost cultivator who is only half a step away from becoming an immortal. How could she be despised like this? This is intolerable.
She raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Yunting provocatively, "Is it here or in the yard?"
Xiao Yunting finished tying his tie and adjusting his collar slowly and calmly, then answered in a cold voice, "In the yard."
There is no intention of being afraid of fighting.
So the man and the evil creature moved into the courtyard. At this time, the intelligent housekeeper turned on the light hidden in the ground, and the warm light halo made the confronting figures of the two people particularly clear.
Ye Lan simply sat under the eaves and watched the game with the little dessert she hadn't eaten tonight.
A ginkgo leaf quietly fell from the branch to the ground.
The two people in the yard started fighting in an instant.
When masters fight, there is often no nonsense, and there are not many fancy moves. Once they use their strength, they aim for the opponent's vital points and will not stop until the death.
Bang bang bang.
There were successive explosions in the yard, the sound of stone tables and stone benches being destroyed.
A Yue originally had the strength of a ghost king, and during this period of time, he absorbed a lot of pure Yin energy from Ye Lan, which greatly increased his strength. Last time, he killed the special department in seconds without even using half of his strength. However, now facing Xiao Yunting, who has an ordinary mortal body, he actually felt pressured.
Not only did he fail to crush the opponent as he had imagined, but he was actually losing ground as the fight went on.
The key point is that this man didn’t even use any magic, he just used his fists and feet!
Bang.
Before A Yue could dodge the last one, she was hit by a punch on the shoulder and fell heavily under the bridge. Because she was caught off guard and failed to transform into a virtual body, she splashed a large amount of water in the stream with a splash.
"you……"
She looked up blankly at the man standing on the bridge, and for a long time only one question popped up in her mind.
Why does she always run into this kind of monster?
Ye Lan is, Xiao Yunting is also...
"That's enough, the winner is decided." Ye Lan, who was watching the lively scene from the eaves, called for a halt, took out another ice cream, placed it beside him and patted it, "Ayue, come and have some."
A Yue came back to her senses, then turned into a shadow to dry the water, and went to the corridor and sat down angrily.
"You obviously did it on purpose!" She accused as she picked up the ice cream and took a big sip, her tone very aggrieved.
Ye Lan smiled and consoled him, "You haven't lost either. After all, your physical body is limited and you haven't possessed him yet."
"Hmph, I'm not that despicable. Using a feint to win a competition is unfair." Ah Yue took another big bite. After being soothed by the delicious and cool ice cream, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "So who is he, and why is he so powerful?"
Is this level really something that a mortal can achieve?
Ye Lan, who understood her hidden meaning, curled his lips slightly and said meaningfully: "No, he will be even more powerful in the future."
