Nan Xunran said nothing more, turned and left, with Wen Rong following closely behind.
Lu Chong straightened up and said loudly, "Please wait, sir!"
The members of the other sects also bowed and said in unison, "Respectfully seeing off our lord!"
Nan Clan
Family Head Hall
Nan Xunran into the hall, followed closely by Wen Rong, who looked slightly reserved.
Nan Xunran slightly to the side and said, "Father, this is Wen Rong."
Wen Rong quickly stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Patriarch."
Nan Xiao stood up from his seat and strode forward.
He scrutinized Wen Rong from head to toe, his eyes filled with a critical gaze.
"Not bad, you've already Divine Ability Realm." Nan Xiao nodded approvingly, then raised his right hand, and a storage bag embroidered with exquisite patterns appeared in his palm.
He handed the storage bag to Wen Rong and said, "There are some spiritual herbs inside. Try to replenish the spiritual energy you've lost over the years as soon as possible."
Wen Rong steadily accepted the storage bag with both hands and said sincerely, "Thank you, Patriarch."
Nan Xiao put his hands behind his back, looked at him and said, "Go and cultivate at the Crimson Plume Sacred Land."
Wen Rong straightened up and replied, "Okay."
Crimson Plume Sacred Land
Wan Huaishan's gaze fixed on Wen Rong, and he asked, "Are you a beast tamer?"
Wen Rong nodded upon hearing this.
Wan Huaishan stroked his chin, lost in thought, and after a moment said, "Then go Spirit-Taming Peak."
Upon hearing this, Wen Rong turned to look at Nan Xunran and asked, "Where is my brother?"
Nan Xunran stood to the side and said calmly, "The Sacred Hall."
With a look of dependence in her eyes, Wen Rong said without hesitation, "I want to follow my brother."
Wan Huaishan waved his hand helplessly, sighed softly, and said, "Fine."
He thought to himself, "Ran'er's subordinates are all in the Sacred Hall."
He then turned his gaze back to Wen Rong and solemnly said, "From this day forward, you are a disciple of Spirit-Taming Peak."
Wen Rong opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.
Wan Huaishan waved his hand dismissively and said, "Don't ask anymore, Ran'er doesn't cultivate on any peak."
After saying that, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes. He secretly thought to himself, "These peak masters' cultivation levels are now almost the same as Ran'er's, so how can they teach him?"
Wen Rong nodded blankly, then his gaze turned to Nan Xunran, his eyes filled with admiration, and he sighed inwardly: How amazing!
Nan Xunran bowed slightly and said, "Your Saint Lord, I shall take my leave now."
Wan Huaishan nodded, then, as if suddenly remembering something, hurriedly said, "The internal competition of the Holy Land will be held in a few days, Ran'er stay in the Holy Land for a few more days."
Although you're definitely going to win first place, it's still good to participate.
Nan Xunran nodded and replied, "Okay."
With that, he vanished in a flash.
Seeing this, Wen Rong followed closely behind.
Sacred Hall
Pei Zimo was pacing aimlessly outside the hall when he suddenly looked up and saw two people who had appeared out of nowhere.
He instantly perked up and shouted, "My lord, you're back!"
Hearing the shout, the others also quickly came out of the hall.
Pei Zimo had sharp eyes and quickly noticed Wen Rong behind Nan Xunran.
He approached curiously, his steps quick as the wind, his eyes fixed intently on Wen Rong, and asked, "My lord, what is this?"
Nan Xunran remained calm and said, "My younger brother."
Pei Zimo was taken aback, thinking to himself, "My lord doesn't have a younger brother," and was about to ask.
Just then, Pei Ziheng stepped forward and said, "Nice to meet you."
Wen Rong stepped out from behind Nan Xunran, bowed slightly, and said, "Hello everyone."
Pei Zimo pulled him aside, his eyes full of doubt, and asked, "Are you really the Lord's brother?"
Wen Rong nodded and replied, "It's my cousin."
Pei Zimo frowned slightly and continued, "Then why haven't I seen you before?"
Wen Rong explained, "I used to live in the Lower Realm."
Pei Zimo suddenly realized, patted Wen Rong on the shoulder, and said warmly, "I see, welcome!"
Wen Rong smiled slightly upon hearing this.
On Nan Xunran's side, Xu Tian cautiously approached and whispered, "My lord."
Nan Xunran tilted her head slightly, "What's wrong?"
Xu Tian's face was full of anticipation, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and he asked impatiently, "Will you be coming to the internal competition in a few days?"
Nan Xunran nodded slightly.
Upon seeing this, Xu Tian's face immediately lit up with a joyful smile.
On Wen Rong's side, Pei Zimo warmly put his arm around his shoulder and walked briskly towards Nan Xunran, asking, "My lord, where does he live?"
Nan Xunran said calmly, "Choose for yourself."
Pei Zimo made a gesture and replied, "Okay, let me introduce you!"
Wen Rong looked at Nan Xunran with a hint of pleading; this man was far too enthusiastic.
Nan Xunran chuckled softly, his voice low and deep, "Go."
Wen Rong nodded, then followed Pei Zimo away.
Their voices continued to come, "You want to be next to the Lord's room?"
The following words became increasingly inaudible, only faintly audible "... yes..."
