"No. There are five major factions in Myriad Mountain City now. They control all the commercial circulation there. They don't care about the other mystics except for being a little more polite to Mystic Supremacy. Moreover, many factions have wanted to replace them for many years, but they have yet to succeed," the little old man said with a light smile.
"That's because they didn't meet a true opponent. Hehe, Lass! Why don't we challenge them!" Old Man Zao said eagerly. The warlike factor in his body had already been ignited!
"Grandpa Du, what level is the weakest among the five major forces?" Leng Ruoxue asked.
"Lass! Even the weakest among the five major factions has a Mystic Sovereign sitting in the array. It's unlikely that you want to challenge the five major factions with your current strength. However, if this puppy takes action, the chance of success is still very high," the little old man said understandingly.
"Grandpa Du, Little Icy is our last trump card. I won't let it attack unless necessary," Leng Ruoxue said confidently.
"Haha, lass, I like your unyielding character. Myriad Mountain City might be dangerous, but it's also a good place to increase your strength! However, you have to be careful wherever you go!" the little old man said worriedly.
"Okay, we will be careful." Leng Ruoxue nodded.
"Lass, this is the map of Myriad Mountain City. My residence is marked on it. I should have returned with you, but I have to bring Zheng En to the Alchemist Association Headquarters first, so I won't be leaving with you." The little old man took out a beast hide scroll and handed it to Leng Ruoxue.
"Master, are we going to the Alchemist Association now? Can't we send Miss and the others to Myriad Mountain City?" Zheng En said worriedly. He had heard of Myriad Mountain City before. Its life could be in danger at any time!
"Silly boy, Sun Wei has already slipped away secretly. He might have lost all his face in Blue Cloud City, but he has been running the Alchemist Association for many years. Moreover, he has the Sun family backing him up. I'm afraid that he will be driven into a corner. Alchemists will cause big trouble," the little old man said worriedly. His disciple, Ren Li, was a softie. Otherwise, he would not have told him about this matter until Sun Wei escaped from Blue Cloud City. Alas! Hopefully, Sun Wei could be more well-behaved and not touch his reverse scale!
"Zheng En, Grandpa Du's concerns are right. Go to the Alchemist Association with him! We can go to Myriad Mountain City ourselves," Leng Ruoxue said. She knew that Grandpa Du wanted to bring Zheng En along to solve his identity problem, so she naturally had no objections.
"But, Miss…" Zheng En hesitated.
"We won't be in any danger with Little Icy around. Zheng En, Grandpa Du, we will wait for you in Myriad Mountain City," Leng Ruoxue said seriously.
"Haha, okay! Lass, we'll immediately return to Myriad Mountain City to meet up with you after settling the Alchemist Association's matters!" the little old man said happily.
"Okay, Grandpa Du. See you again." Leng Ruoxue led the group in the direction of Million Mountain City after speaking…
The little old man and Zheng En went to the Carefree City where the Alchemist Association was located…
At the same time, Lan Ming in the inn had already discovered the letter Leng Ruoxue and the others left for him…
"Little Lan Lan, there is no such thing as a banquet that will never end. See you again." That was all. After reading it, Lan Ming's mood was extremely complicated. He even felt like he had been abandoned. Boohoo… How could this be?
Lan Ming sat foolishly in the living room with the letter in his hand, thinking about something. His thoughts were interrupted only when Lan Lie appeared!
"Uncle, what happened to you?" Lan Lie, who had just run into the living room, couldn't help being puzzled when he saw his uncle sitting on the chair like a wooden man.
"Nothing. I'm in a bad mood," Lan Ming said coldly.
"Uh! By the way, where are Little Icy and the others?" Lan Lie changed the topic.
"They left. They left without saying goodbye, leaving behind only a letter," Lan Ming said gloomily. Boohoo… Fine, leave! Why didn't they tell me in person! He couldn't understand! Could it be that those people didn't treat me as a friend at all? He was conflicted…
"Ah! What? Gone! Boohoo… What about my Little Icy?" Lan Lie said in disbelief. How could Little Icy abandon him?
"Of course it was left with them. Lie'er! Little Icy isn't yours," Lan Ming reminded gloomily and helplessly. Alas! He really didn't understand why his nephew was so interested in a puppy!
"Boohoo…" Lan Lie sat on the ground and wailed when he heard that…
"What's the matter? What happened?" Lan Tao's loud voice sounded in the living room. Immediately after, he arrived with a nervous face.
"Stinky brat, why are you crying? I'm not dead yet!" Lan Tao couldn't help but burn with jealousy when he saw his precious grandson crying on the ground without caring about his image! Because he knew that his grandson definitely wasn't crying for him!
"Little Icy left. Boohoo… Stinky old man, I won't be so sad if you die!" Lan Lie said without giving him any face.
"You… you heartless stinky brat. I raised you up for nothing. You only care about that dog now, eh?" Lan Tao was so angry that his face and neck were red as he roared at the top of his lungs.
"Hmph! I was raised by Father and Mother. What has it got to do with you?" Lan Lie said disdainfully. This stinky old man had only been finding trouble with him or causing trouble for him since he was young. When had he raised him!
"You…" Lan Tao was so angry that he couldn't say anything. Boohoo… What kind of stinky grandson was this! All he knew how to do was bully him!
The First Elder and Third Elder, who entered behind Lan Tao, were used to the way the grandfather and granddaughter interacted. Therefore, they had no choice but to ignore it!
"Did the little girl and the others leave?" The First Elder asked in surprise. Hehe, they were really fast!
"Yes." Lan Ming nodded.
"Uh! What about Lan Ning'er and the others?" The Third Elder asked curiously. Why did this little girl run away without saying anything?
