Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Chapter 1783

"Let's go."

Yue Nu didn't say anything more and immediately led Li Lan into Dengdao Mountain.

After Dengdao Mountain became the "furnace frame", it set up a magic array to absorb the power of all directions. Li Lan and the medicine slaves selected from the other shore were responsible for the "injury gate" in the southeast corner.

However, upon arriving at this place, a woman dressed in white approached. Her attire was identical to Xing Han's and Yue Nu's, but she exuded a subtle sense of superiority and smiled, saying:

"Junior Sister Yuenu, I heard you've discovered a promising talent; even Lord Gu is full of praise for him..."

Her gaze fell directly on Li Lan, and she asked, "Is it him?"

When Yue Nu saw her, her expression changed slightly, and she bowed and said, "Greetings, Senior Sister Yun Xiao."

-- Previously, Li Lan had inquired about the Star Devouring Sect and Gu Tingyi in great detail, so she knew that Yun Xiao was one of the four disciples Gu Tingyi brought into this world from the Star Devouring Sect.

However, Yun Xiao's identity is somewhat special—Gu Tingyi's cultivation technique often requires the release of evil energy, and she uses her beauty to serve him, thus holding a high position in Gu Tingyi's eyes.

"No need to be polite."

Yun Xiao waved his hand and said calmly, "From now on, I will be in charge of the Injury Gate. You can go to the Death Gate."

Upon hearing this, Yue Nu's face turned even more unpleasant.

Originally, the four disciples from the Star Devouring Sect were each responsible for two key points of the formation, while she was responsible for the points of injury and death, which already placed her in a very low position.

But now, within the Injury Clan, just because there's Li Lan, whom Gu Tingyi praised, she's trying to take her away. This is clearly because she's afraid her position will be taken by Yue Nu.

Yue Nu gritted her teeth and said softly, "This place was ordered by Lord Gu to be guarded. Senior Sister, perhaps this is inappropriate..."

Li Lan has a special identity, and with her around, she can provide protection. Now that Li Lan has been targeted by Yun Xiao, who knows what problems might arise?

If she gets implicated, she'll be finished too.

"What, you don't want to hear what I'm about to say?"

Yun Xiao merely sneered, staring at Yue Nu and saying, "Or should I go talk to Lord Gu again tonight, and then have him give you a good whipping on the way?"

Yue Nu's face turned even paler, and she was speechless for a moment, clearly terrified.

“Senior Sister Yue Nu, it’s a good thing that Senior Sister Yun Xiao is willing to take on this responsibility for you. You should thank her.”

Li Lan had already spoken calmly.

He was telling Yue Nu that there was no need to argue with Yun Xiao, as he could handle things on his own.

Upon hearing this, Yue Nu had no choice but to bow and say, "In that case, thank you very much, Senior Sister Yun Xiao."

After saying that, she gave Li Lan a deep look and then left.

After she left.

"You do have some sense. What's your name?"

Yun Xiao looked at Li Lan.

"My name is Xuan Yi, and I pay my respects to Senior Sister."

Li Lan remained calm.

"Very good, go to the kitchen and do your work first."

She waved her hand.

Li Lan immediately headed towards a building.

Watching his retreating figure, a strange and sinister glint flashed in Yun Xiao's eyes. She murmured, "A genius capable of defeating the Mother of the Unusual. If I could obtain his essence, perhaps I could live a little longer..."

There was a hint of anxiety in her eyes!

The so-called fire room is the place where the fire is started. By adding firewood and fuel here, the fire in the entire huge furnace can be controlled.

Outside the kitchen, Li Lan knocked on the door, and a voice rang out: "Fellow Daoist Zheng Heng, you've finally arrived—"

The door was immediately pulled open, and Modo was all smiles, but his smile froze as soon as he saw Li Lan!

"How could it be you? Where is Xu Zhengheng?"

He broke down in his throat and spoke.

Shouldn't it be Xu Zhengheng who became a drug slave and entered this place?

He knew Xu Zhengheng very well; Xu's talent and ability were unmatched even in the other world. Moreover, to be on the safe side, he had given Xu his own notes.

As a result, Xu Zhengheng...failed?

Did Xuan Yi pass the test?

how can that be!

“Fellow Daoist Modo, I have come here to tend the furnace on the orders of Lord Gu.”
