Hearing Nalan Yanran state something that seemed perfectly natural in such a matter-of-fact tone, Gu Qinghan's mouth twitched. Nalan Yanran tilted her head slightly and continued on her own.
"I fought that Yellow Springs Demonic Sage in the Illusion Realm for who knows how long. If that guy's Remnant Soul hadn't run out, I'd probably still be stuck in there."
Nalan Yanran complained, her face full of displeasure.
Back in the Nine Nether Nether Python Clan's territory, Nalan Yanran's consciousness had entered Yellow Springs Demonic Sage's stone tablet. After meeting his Remnant Soul, she had concisely told him that she wanted to become stronger.
Yellow Springs Demonic Sage then offered to be Nalan Yanran's sparring partner. He said he had not seen an outsider for many years, and since he had finally met one, he could use the remainder of his days to pass the time. He also promised to teach Nalan Yanran all of his ultimate techniques.
Nalan Yanran had not refused. Yellow Springs Demonic Sage's ultimate techniques were secondary to her; the truly valuable thing was the rare experience of fighting a supreme expert who had once stood at the late Nine-star Dou Sheng peak. Even if she gained nothing else, it would still have been worth it.
After that, Nalan Yanran began a long and brutal battle with Yellow Springs Demonic Sage within the Illusion Realm. At first, he killed her in a single move every time, but later, she became able to stand against him on equal footing. Even Nalan Yanran herself could not remember how long she had stayed in the Illusion Realm. If Yellow Springs Demonic Sage had not told her that time passed much more slowly there than in the outside world, she would have come out long ago.
Thanks to Yellow Springs
