Lin Ran felt that the small flame that had just risen was extinguished in an instant, and when he heard Fanhua's next words, the flame became deader than ever.

Fanhua took out the ancient book that she had prepared long ago, and then explained: "First of all, the most powerful ability of the Immortal Heart is the Immortal Blood produced inside. But after reaching the Dragon Transformation Realm, you can start to condense the Immortal Blood. When I say condense, I mean condense the essence of blood."

"Another point is that your current physical strength is not high enough, and you cannot discover more of the wonderful things about the Immortal Heart. Because with the Immortal Heart, you are equivalent to having half the blood of the Demon Dragon Clan. You even have the opportunity to use the blood talents of the Demon Dragon Clan."

After listening to Fanhua's words, Lin Ran raised his hand weakly and said, "So, it's because I'm too weak that I can't use this Immortal Heart?"

Fanhua threw the ancient book to the ground, nodded and said: "In order to take care of you, Gu Zige even sealed the Immortal Heart, so that you would not be killed by the power of the Immortal Heart."

Fanhua didn't expect that Gu Zige would make such a great sacrifice in order to repay the Green Emperor, and even make the Green Emperor owe him a favor. That undying heart was obviously what Gu Zige wanted to leave to his descendants, but he chose to give it to Lin Ran.

You should know that not every member of the Demon Dragon Clan has an immortal heart. This is actually a bloodline talent of the Demon Dragon Clan.

Therefore, in order to allow their descendants to possess the immortal heart, the Demon Dragon Clan will preserve the immortal heart of the previous generation through secret methods so that the next generation can possess it and thus have the blood talent related to the immortal heart.

These were the information that Fanhua learned after frantically searching ancient books. It was because of this that Fanhua was impressed by Gu Zige's generosity. She didn't know why Gu Zige suddenly changed his mind. Originally, it seemed that Gu Zige just wanted to strengthen Lin Ran's physique.

Could it be the mysterious girl in green who lives in Lin Ran’s heart? Does Gu Zige know her?

Fanhua suddenly felt a little regretful that she did not ask Gu Zige about the origin of the egg. If she knew, she would have more information that would allow her to find ancient books and make the right choice for Lin Ran.

Fortunately, the girl in green seemed to have been helping Lin Ran strengthen his body and even saved Lin Ran's life in a critical moment. Otherwise, if there was a bomb hidden in the vital parts of the body, it would be really scary.

Lin Ran looked inward to study the immortal heart and found that it was almost the same as his original heart, except that it was a little bigger and brighter red, and occasionally emitted a dark red light.

After finishing the research, Lin Ran thought of the situation outside and quickly looked at Fanhua and asked, "By the way, what's the situation outside Fanhua?"

"I don't know much about the situation outside. I just took you to a quiet place. We didn't continue to stay in that mysterious place down there." Fanhua said.

"Then I have to go back quickly!"

Lin Ran thought of Mu Shishuang and his group of children from Linghua Academy, and no longer cared about studying. He quickly packed up and hurried out.

When Lin Ran returned to the outside and climbed out of the hole, he found Yue Lei squatting outside the door and couldn't help but shouting, "Brother Yue, why are you here?"

"Hey, Brother Lin, you finally came out, let's get out of here quickly, you're making too much noise!"

Yue Lei was so happy to see Lin Ran finally coming out that he walked up to her and pulled her out.

Lin Ran was being pulled by Yue Lei like this. He looked at Yue Lei in surprise and asked, "Why don't you come down to see me?"

"This is an opportunity you discovered. Why should I go down and join in the fun?" Yue Lei said casually.

But this light sentence made Lin Ran understand. He patted Yue Lei on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Brother Yue, I owe you a favor!"

"No, no, just buy me a drink!" Yue Lei waved his hand quickly.

"How was the wine last time?" Lin Ran asked with a smile.

"That wine is good and refreshing. It would be even better if there were girls!"

"Look at you!"

Lin Ran and Yue Lei walked back to the camp arm in arm.

Although he didn't say anything, it seemed like he said everything.

......

126. Probe

Lin Ran and Yue Lei walked back to the convoy arm in arm. He was still wondering where the Mu Shi couple had gone with all the commotion. It was a bit unusual that they didn't even look for him.

After asking, it turned out that it was a group of kids from his academy who knocked Mu Shishuang unconscious in order to prevent him from looking for him. Now he was lying in the carriage. This made Lin Ran feel a little amused and helpless.

"Please punish me sir, it was our idea!"

Fu Yuemei and the rest of the group all bowed and apologized so sincerely that Lin Ran didn't know what to do for a moment.

Finally, after giving this group of people a light punishment, he let them go back to the caravan and told them to hurry on their journey.

After all, because of him, they stayed in the Ancient Dragon Gate for so long and caused such a big commotion. If someone were to investigate later, it would be easy to catch them. It would be better to leave now.

The kids at Linghua Academy would definitely not say anything nonsense, and there shouldn't be any problems with Yue Lei either. Lin Ran believed in his relationship with Yue Lei, but there was one more thing...

Lin Ran looked at Mulan, who was sitting upright in the driver's seat, driving the carriage. He couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Mulan, the Ancient Dragon Gate..."

"Mr. Lin, what just happened at Ancient Dragon Gate?"

Mulan turned her head and looked at Lin Ran, and said very calmly: "Mr. Lin, there is actually nothing to see in the ancient Longmen. There are only some murals with unclear meanings. The useful ones have been found..."

Seeing Mulan pretending to be stupid, Lin Ran understood in his heart that Mulan was also a master at pretending to be confused. Lin Ran followed Mulan's words and said, "Yeah, I also think that the Ancient Dragon Gate is not interesting. It's a waste of time to go there!"

"That's right, Mr. Lin. If we had set off earlier, maybe we could have passed that difficult swamp sooner..." Mulan said with a smile.

Her face with hideous scars looked a bit scary when she smiled like that.

Lin Ran smiled but didn't say anything. He turned around and opened the curtain. Fu Yuemei, Chi Si Nian and other girls were in the carriage, and Lin Ran's eyes quickly fell on Mu Shi Shuang who was lying on Chi Si Nian's thighs.

After looking for a while, Lin Ran said softly:

"If your sister Mu wakes up, remember to call me!"

"Yes!"

……

After a long time, outside the ancient Dragon Gate, a huge convoy arrived here. The leading convoy held the Qin family's flag, and the convoys following behind, judging from the flags on the carriages, were varied and unique.

A middle-aged man in a black robe inlaid with gold got off the Qin family's carriage. If Lin Ran and the others were there, they might recognize at a glance that this middle-aged man with a majestic aura was Qin Tianying, the head of the Qin family.

At this time, the head of the Qin family sent his men to the back to inform the people in the carriages, and those men who went to inform were extremely humble and respectful, which was rarely seen when coming from the five major academies.

Even the five major academies failed to let the head of the Qin family lead the team, but these convoys from different forces could make the head of the Qin family lead the way so thoughtfully and respectfully. Their identities may have been revealed.

Just behind the Qin family, a carriage with a flag with a long sword logo on it was ridden. A veiled woman in white got off first, followed by a handsome and well-built young man.

When Qin Tianying, the head of the Qin family, saw the mysterious woman in white, he cupped his hands and said, "Fairy Jianzong, you can continue to stay in the carriage. I have sent people to investigate what happened to the ruins ahead."

Shangguan Mengqing returned the greeting and said softly, "Master Qin, calling me like this makes me feel a little uneasy. Master Qin, just call me Shangguan."

"Sorry, sorry, I heard everyone calling you like that, so I followed suit. I hope Miss Shangguan, you don't mind!" Qin Tianying, who was always serious, smiled rarely. It was obvious that there was a clear difference in the way he treated Shangguan Mengqing and other people.

While waiting at the entrance, Qin Tianying called over his own child, Qin Yi, who was a handsome man who was no less handsome than Huang Shishi who was beside Shangguan Mengqing. In fact, Qin Yi had a more evil aura than Huang Shishi.

Qin Tianying patted Qin Yi and said to Shangguan Mengqing: "Miss Shangguan, this is my child Qin Yi, who is at the peak of the Spiritual Pill Realm and is also a sword cultivator. I wonder if he has the opportunity to join the Sword Sect?"

Shangguan Mengqing's eyes, which were as quiet and indifferent as autumn water, revealed behind her veil, showed no trace of emotion, just like her words: "It all depends on your performance in this secret realm competition. We, the Sword Sect, still welcome people with lofty ideals who are willing to join us."

Qin Tianying looked at his child and encouraged him, "Did you hear what Miss Shangguan said? Perform well in the secret realm!"

"I understand, father!" Qin Yi said excitedly.

Qin Yi's eyes kept lingering on Shangguan Mengqing, with a lustful and evil intent hidden deep in his eyes that was not easily detected, but this happened to be seen by Shangguan Mengqing.

Shangguan Mengqing would not scold Qin Yi for anything. She had encountered such gazes many times. If she lost her temper and killed the other person because of the way others did that, that would be too low.

What's more, she now wants to know something more, which is what happened in the Ancient Dragon Gate?

The men Qin Tianying sent out came back soon and reported to Qin Tianying all the situations of Ancient Dragon Gate, including the big hole in the central hall of Ancient Dragon Gate.

Even Qin Tianying was extremely surprised by this, and couldn't help but frown and think: "There was actually a big hole in the central hall of the Ancient Dragon Gate. Could it be that the sound not long ago was made by the hall being pierced?!"

"Master Qin!"

Shangguan Mengqing's voice interrupted Qin Tianying's thoughts. Seeing Qin Tianying looking over, Shangguan Mengqing continued, "Instead of thinking about it here, it would be better for us to go to the scene and take a look. Maybe we can find out what happened."

"Miss Shangguan is right!"

Qin Tianying nodded and asked his men to notify the other super sects and their affiliated forces behind.

The convoy continued to move forward and arrived at the ruins of the central hall. All the visitors from the super sects and their vassal forces were very curious about the loud noise that suddenly erupted not long ago and the faint sound of a dragon's roar that was heard.

Now that they have arrived at the scene of the incident, many people cannot suppress their curiosity and have walked past the ruins to take a look at the central hall.

Shangguan Mengqing followed him and soon came to the hole in the hall. Looking at the hole that seemed to be bottomless, Shangguan Mengqing squatted down at the edge and gently wiped the edge with her hand. She suddenly said, "I'm going to go down and take a look!"

"what?"

Huang Shishi, who was acting as a bodyguard, was unable to react when he heard Shangguan Mengqing's words. Seeing that Shangguan Mengqing was about to jump, he hurriedly said, "Mengqing, it will be dangerous if you go down rashly!"

"It's not dangerous!"

Shangguan Mengqing responded and then jumped down.

When many people came in, they just watched. Only Shangguan Mengqing was so unique that he watched for a short while and then jumped down.

"Shangguan Mengqing is still the same as always!"

At the edge of the hole, a blonde woman with an exotic look and a veil couldn't help but tease.

The maid next to her said softly at this time: "Saint, do you want to go down and take a look?"

"No, if there is anything, it's not my turn, go back!"

The woman called the Saint waved her hand casually, then walked out in the air, and the maid beside her hurriedly followed.

Anyone who had followed Lin Ran to deal with the Lingjing Holy Land would definitely know that this was Gao Tianwen, the saint of the Lingjing Holy Land.

Judging from his steps in the void, his cultivation had obviously improved a bit compared to last time.

"Father, this..."

The Qin family's father and son were also standing next to the hole. Qin Yi looked at his father anxiously.

Qin Tianying was very calm. He walked outside and said, "Let's go wait outside. There shouldn't be anything here..."

With the departure of the Qin father and son, the visitors from other super sects were not fools either. They must have known that there were no treasures here. Some of them left without interest, while some stayed to admire the murals. People like Huang Shishi could only jump down to find Shangguan Mengqing.

After Shangguan Mengqing gracefully landed at the deepest part of the cave, she skillfully took out the illuminating bead and used the soft light to look around. She soon noticed several places where the soil had obvious depressions. She stepped forward to explore and then went to the narrow entrance.

But Shangguan Mengqing did not go in. She just gently touched the edge of the stone door and closed her eyes to feel it.

After a while, Shangguan Mengqing, who noticed some movement above, used his spiritual power to lightly destroy the places he had just discovered. It looked like there was nothing unusual like other places.

Shangguan Mengqing looked at the person coming down from above, and when she saw that it was Huang Shishi, she said calmly: "Brother, why did you follow me down?"

"Aren't you worried that you might be in danger? There's nothing here, right?"

Huang Shishi scratched his head. He was about to say something, but Shangguan Mengqing patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, let's go!"

As soon as the words fell, Shangguan Mengqing's figure in white clothes turned into a misty shadow and was about to disappear in front of Huang Shishi.

"Hey, Junior Sister, wait for me!"

Huang Shishi shouted helplessly, quickly summoned his spiritual power, and hurriedly followed Shangguan Mengqing.

Shangguan Mengqing returned to the ground and commanded the disciples of the Sword Sect and the vassal forces that had come here to get back on the carriages and prepare to set off again. The other forces, seeing Shangguan Mengqing go down and come back up so quickly, thought that there was nothing there.

They couldn't help feeling bored and went back to the carriage.

Shangguan Mengqing returned to the carriage, and Huang Shishi came in later. Seeing Shangguan Mengqing was quiet and silent, Huang Shishi had to suppress his thoughts and continued to close his eyes to rest.

127. Ancient Battlefield (3.8K)

"Junior Sister Mengqing, why are you so concerned about the ruins of the ancient Dragon Gate?"

Huang Shishi couldn't help but feel doubtful. He looked at Shangguan Mengqing, who was sitting by the window, and said, "There doesn't seem to be anything there. If there was anything, it must have been taken away long ago, right?"

Shangguan Mengqing glanced at Huang Shishi with her eyes, put her hands on the windowsill, looked at the moving scenery outside, and explained calmly: "Junior sister is just curious!"

"Just curious?"

Huang Shishi asked, because his directness told him that there was not only curiosity, but also a feeling that he couldn't quite put his finger on.

Shangguan Mengqing turned around from the window, stared at Huang Shishi, and asked, "Is Senior Brother Huang curious?"

"Sorry, Junior Sister, I asked too many questions!"

Huang Shishi keenly noticed that Meng Qing's tone was not right and did not dare to continue asking.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became dull. Even though the curtains on both sides of the windows were open and cool and refreshing air poured in, it still couldn't blow away the stagnant atmosphere.

After arriving at the rest area, Huang Shishi finally had a chance to get out of the car and take a deep breath.

When Shangguan Mengqing saw Huang Shishi fleeing in panic, she couldn't help but criticize herself in her heart. She had always acted calmly and rationally, but now she had made a mistake of being careless again.

She was so afraid that something might happen to Lin Ran that she neglected some of the irrational aspects of her behavior, or things that were not what a Sword Sect Fairy should do.

"You could have asked directly with the jade bracelet, but you were unwilling to take the initiative to ask, Shangguan Mengqing, look at your character..."

Shangguan Mengqing scolded herself a little in her heart. She looked towards the vast mountains in the distance. As the distance got closer, she became more and more anxious.

It's been two or three years, and I don't know how he is doing?
