At this point, the woman also realized that she was abandoned and could only confess to Ye Lan.
"Before the witch-elimination movement began, the Great Witch of our tribe had already predicted it and hid some of our people away for refuge. For many years afterward, we hid among the common people, concealing our identities and not easily revealing our abilities."
"About a hundred years ago, a member of our tribe was discovered by an alchemist, but he didn't harass her. Instead, they fell in love and eventually married and had children. He said the alchemy lineage had declined and hoped the two tribes could live in harmony and forget their past grievances. So we merged together and established a new school, theology."
…
After hearing the whole story, Xuanzong and the others' expressions gradually became solemn.
A hundred years ago, this kind of unorthodox theology existed, and the time frame just happened to coincide with the construction of the old villa in China.
It's hard not to make associations.
However, the woman was too young, had a low status in the clan, and was not exposed to many secrets, so she was not aware of the plan for the old western-style building.
Finally, the woman asked Nan Xu, who was beside the bed, "I've been honest with you. Now can you let the person in charge come out to talk?"
She knew that what she had just said was a bargaining chip. Now she had shown enough sincerity, and it depended on Xuanzong's response.
Nan Xu smiled mysteriously at her, "Hasn't our clan leader always been by your side?"
What?
The woman was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something. She cast her eyes towards the girl beside the bed in surprise, her pupils suddenly dilated. "Are you the one in charge?!"
She thought that Nan Xu was joking when he said the clan leader. After all, Ye Lan looked too young and extremely delicate and beautiful. She could be described as the pure campus beauty who often went in and out of the library in college.
But in fact, not only was the other party able to kill the black-horned beast single-handedly, his medical skills were also incredibly superb.
"My name is Ye Lan." Ye Lan met her gaze and said calmly, "I am the patriarch of the Xuan Sect of the ancient martial arts world of China."
The patriarch of the Xuan clan in China's ancient martial arts world.
The value of this title in the field of special abilities is no less than that of Joanna, the new queen of the Texas royal family.
The woman was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "So you are the most powerful Ancient Martial Sect in the East. No wonder I lost so miserably..."
Before, when the March family invited her to fight, they were talking about an unremarkable school from the East. It seemed that this tall, arrogant and brainless nobleman didn't know much about Xuanzong even if he had heard of his name. Unlike their witch clan, they were always cautious and were learning from Xuanzong, the winner of the Eastern and Western metaphysics war.
If she had known that the duel opponent was Xuanzong, she would never have come.
"Was this kind of martial arts also taught to you by the God-Maker Organization?" Ye Lan had finished acupuncture on her upper body. After covering her with a quilt, he began to treat the lower part.
The old professor and the male elders had already left the ward, leaving only Nan Xu to help.
The woman felt a touch of respect and warmth at her thoughtfulness, and her expression softened considerably. She spoke softly, "Well, many of the books used by witches in their training were burned. Our abilities have been weakened by the passages we've passed down to modern times. The organization said they could use theology to assist us in creating a new hexagram formation, but there's a price to pay..."
The price is self-evident: her festering flesh.
Nan Xu next to them was amused by what they heard.
"You're such a foolish young girl! You were cheated but still counted your money. You're so lucky to be alive now that you're just asking for trouble. Your ancestors used to be much more powerful than you, but they were all fair-skinned and beautiful, with skin so smooth that it was almost impossible to break a baby's. Even their toes were so vain."
I guess if he knew about this in the afterlife, he would be so angry at these younger generations that he would want to open his coffin.
Thinking of the other person's smug and witchy face when they met before, she felt a little happy again.
The woman was filled with surprise when she heard this. "They say there's a way to immortality in the Eastern ancient martial arts world. Could it be that you too..."
She looked Nan Xu up and down, but couldn't see any clues.
Nan Xu enjoyed people guessing her age the most. She gently stroked her delicate face, glanced at her sideways, and said with a malicious smile, "You are too old to call me grandma."
woman:"!!"
It feels like a massive scam.
But the body's recovery cannot be faked. The feeling of being completely healed from the inside out is really mysterious.
When she actually saw the new skin growing, she was so excited that she couldn't help crying.
There is no girl who doesn't love beauty, let alone at such a flowery age. She can't wear beautiful skirts like normal girls, and even has to be specially isolated when taking a shower. Any opposite sex around her will be scared to vomit when they see her skin.
It’s all fake to say that you don’t care.
But the organization said that the only way to save her people and lead the witch back to the world was to sacrifice herself. Even professional doctors could not cure such serious sequelae, but now it has been mostly healed within a short conversation.
This quickly tilted the balance in her heart.
"I know you want to deal with the organization. I can help you, but can you please let my people go?" The woman finally chose to switch sides.
After witnessing Ye Lan's powerful strength, she no longer had the will to fight, and she knew that if her people resisted, they would only be killed, so she wanted to find a way to survive for them.
As the saying goes, he who knows the times is a hero. Ye Lan has always liked smart people.
"Okay." She nodded slightly, accepting the other party's request, and then said, "But I need to meet with your boss."
After hearing this, the woman hesitated for a long time, but finally agreed.
The location was quickly determined, in a villa on the bank of the Wusai River.
Ye Lan chose a weekday to travel, and this time she only brought Lei Ze with her. The two of them disguised themselves as a doctor and a nurse, and specially borrowed clothes from the medical department when they went out.
As the car drove along the shimmering Wusai River, she glanced at the crystal clear water, then at the houses reflected on both sides, and said lightly, "This is where the nobles gather."
The woman, Ada, pursed her lips and explained in a low voice, "Because our new generation patriarch recently married a theological noble. I'm sorry, if you feel it's inappropriate, you can cancel this meeting."
She also tried to figure out Ye Lan's intentions before leaving, fearing that the other party would become suspicious, so she didn't know how to explain it.
Now that she's been asked about it, she's honestly explained the situation.
Ye Lan didn't care and shook his head to indicate that it was not necessary.
The car just stopped at this moment, and she pushed the door and got out. She saw a bright and exquisite Rococo villa in front of her. The yard was full of flowers, and there was a cute little bell hanging in front of the door. It was obvious that the hostess had decorated it carefully.
Ada went up and rang the doorbell. The housekeeper came out and asked a few questions before opening the door. He said with a smile, "Madam has been bored these days. It's great that you can come and visit. Please come in. I'll prepare afternoon tea for you."
