Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 149 Going to the Southwest

Fan Ruichen put down his phone, took out his laptop, and continued writing his thesis. He hadn't graduated early because he didn't want the pace to be too fast. He had time to handle work, attend classes, play e-sports and race cars with his friends. He felt it was a pretty ordinary but fulfilling and happy time. But now that he has a girlfriend, he feels like he doesn't have enough time. He'd rather spend time with his girlfriend than waste time at school.

After typing for a while, Fan Ruichen stopped typing, feeling frustrated. He frowned, his mind replaying Yang Nianqing's pale face. He felt that something was wrong.
"Ring." Fan Ruichen's phone rang a few times. He picked it up and looked at it. It was a message from the person he had sent to keep an eye on Qingxuan Sect. After reading the message, Fan Ruichen's brows furrowed even more.

The people there said that the Qingxuan Sect members were also on their way to the southwest, and that many of them had secretly carried out a lot of wounded people from the southwestern border forests today. They went to the scene and saw that there were many traces that could not have been done by ordinary people. They sent out some photos and also secretly took photos of the wounded.

After seeing the photos and considering the whole story, Fan Ruichen immediately understood what Yang Nianqing had gone to do. She wasn't there to gather herbs at all! Or rather, she wasn't gathering any ordinary herbs! The fact that she had alarmed so many cultivators meant that her pale face today was definitely not due to fatigue; she was injured!

Fan Ruichen stood up instantly, and everyone in the classroom looked at him.

"Ah Chen, what's wrong?" Wang He asked, puzzled.

"I'm leaving now. Please ask for leave for me." Fan Ruichen grabbed his laptop, said this to Wang He with a serious expression, and hurriedly left.

The other people in the classroom looked at him in confusion. Why did Fan Ruichen leave?

"Hey? What's wrong, A-Chen?" Wang He called out from behind her.

Seeing that Fan Ruichen did not respond, Wang He pondered for a moment. It was rare to see A-Chen so out of control. Could it be that something had happened to his sister-in-law? Wang He looked worriedly at Fan Ruichen's back.

Fan Ruichen walked quickly to his car and called Yang Nianqing again. This time, the message said the number was temporarily unavailable. He tried calling several times, but got the same message each time. He couldn't get through again! He shouldn't have let Yang Nianqing go in the first place.

Fan Ruichen slammed his hand on the steering wheel. Yang Nianqing had once again faced danger alone and charged forward by herself! No matter how he tried to teach her, she wouldn't listen. What did she take him for?
Taking a deep breath, he couldn't wait any longer. Fan Ruichen called Zhao Yi, "Arrange for someone to take me to the southwestern border now."

Zhao Yi replied from the other side: "Yes, young master. I'll go prepare now. We'll depart in an hour."

After Zhao Yi hung up the phone, Qin Lan, who was watching a movie with him, asked, "What's wrong?"

"Young Master said he'll arrange for someone to send him to the southwestern border now. You can watch it by yourself." Zhao Wen turned on his phone's flashlight and walked out of the screening room.

"Hey, I'll go with you." Qin Lan quickly followed, glancing back at the movie that was halfway through and sighing. She had finally managed to convince this blockhead to watch a movie with her, but it was a pity. Qin Lan was puzzled; why was the young master suddenly going to the southwestern border? Qin Lan instantly thought of Yang Nianqing. Could it be that something had happened to the young mistress?
The two acted swiftly, quickly arranging a private plane, and Fan Ruichen embarked on his trip to Southwest China.

Seeing Fan Ruichen's serious and unsmiling expression, Qin Lan quietly leaned towards Zhao Yi and whispered, "Young Master, what's wrong? Has something happened to the Young Madam?" Fan Ruichen hadn't said a word since boarding the plane, looking particularly angry. Zhao Yi glanced at Fan Ruichen and also whispered to Qin Lan, "Why don't you ask?"

Qin Lan glared at him, then crossed her arms and looked out the window at the clouds without saying a word.

Zhao Wen scratched his head. Had he said something wrong again?
In the secret realm, Huanhuan and Lele woke up one after the other and saw a cat with Mo Mo's scent. The two little ones circled around it in confusion. Why did Sister Mo Mo become like this?
Seeing that Mo Mo remained unconscious, Huanhuan and Lele searched for Yang Nianqing's scent in the air. Suddenly, there were two loud "thumps." Huanhuan and Lele covered their heads with their little paws. What had they just bumped into? Huanhuan tentatively touched the air in front of them with her little paws. Sure enough, there was something invisible blocking them. But Yang Nianqing's scent was coming from the house in front. Huanhuan grew bigger and scratched hard a few times, but there was still something blocking them, and they couldn't get in.

Seeing Huanhuan doing this, Lele also grew bigger and touched the transparent barrier. After thinking for a moment, Lele started digging a hole in front of the barrier. Since he couldn't get in from the top, he decided to dig a tunnel to crawl through. Huanhuan understood what he meant and followed him to dig a hole.

After a while, Mo Mo woke up and saw Huan Huan and Le Le lying in a hole, with only their butts showing. What were the two of them doing?
Inside the small building, Yang Nianqing's complexion gradually regained its rosy hue. When Yang Nianqing opened her eyes, the familiar bamboo building came into view.

"You're awake." A voice came from behind Yang Nianqing. Yang Nianqing turned around and saw that it was Gu Lang.

Gu Lang withdrew his spiritual power and said, "Didn't I tell you to summon me if you encountered something you couldn't handle? Why did you get yourself into this state? Your spiritual power is depleted and your dantian is damaged."

Yang Nianqing touched her lower dantian below her navel and could no longer feel the pain. It must be because Gu Lang healed and repaired her dantian.

"I could have handled it. I thought even if they attacked together, they couldn't hurt me. Who knew they would be so despicable? Not only did they gang up on me, but they also ambushed me. They hurt an innocent person, and in a fit of rage, my spiritual energy went berserk." She didn't understand why she would be so angry that the uncle's injury would cause her spiritual energy to go berserk. Perhaps it was because she was too angry about Bei Rou's actions.

“Besides, how can you leave the secret realm so recklessly, Ancestor? If the time is not right, I’m afraid the secret realm won’t last long once you leave. Besides, Ancestor, you’ve never left before, so how do you know how long the secret realm can last?” Yang Nianqing continued, and then took out the Phoenix Seeking Flower from the Vine Entwining Flower space and handed it to Gu Lang.

"I've completed my mission! Look! The Phoenix-Seeking Flower!" Yang Nianqing said proudly, now one step closer to finding Gu Lang's lover.

Gu Lang rubbed her head and said, "You've worked hard. Ancestor, this secret realm isn't as weak as you think. Next time you encounter a powerful enemy you can't fight, remember to summon me. There's still some time before the Spirit-Seeking Grass matures. You can leave the two wolves you brought back in the secret realm for now, and I'll train them. After that, you can let that little cat demon girl come in and train her too."

Yang Nianqing nodded and replied, "Okay."

As the two emerged from the bamboo house, they saw a large pit dug by Huanhuanle in front of the screen. Hearing footsteps, Huanhuanle lay down by the pit, looking up with his face covered in black dirt.
