I think it's because Elder Fu benefited from Long Aotian's influence. Generally speaking, from Long Aotian's perspective, if Elder Fu says something is good, then it must be a treasure.

Things that a supporting character considers treasures are most likely to be inferior to those of the main character; this is a rule.

It shouldn't be a big problem; she'll take all the good stuff with her, and we can slowly study the Void Stone we get.

The Corpse Refining Sect is a second-rate minor sect. Among its most valuable assets are the resources in the cave abode of the Corpse Refining Sect's patriarch, the Jade Slip on the third floor of the Corpse Refining Sect's Library Pavilion, and the Storage Bag of the five elders who have reached the final stage of cultivation. Now, even the most talented disciple personally taught by the patriarch has all fallen into Bai Lan's hands.

Now it's time to reclaim that last valuable fortuitous opportunity, the Ancestor's cave abode.

" Elder Fu, keep a close eye on things. If you sense the aura of Nascent Soul Cultivator in the distance, let me know in advance."

If Nascent Soul Cultivator comes, there will be no way to stop them or escape in time. As long as we determine the exact time when the Nascent Soul Old Devil arrives, we can reload the save and leave at the exact moment before or after the arrival.

"Okay, okay."

Bai Lan nodded, and with her Divine Sense she swept around, and indeed she sensed a restriction set up by a Nascent Soul Cultivator in a place where spiritual energy was most abundant.

Her Divine Sense is now comparable to that of Nascent Soul, and she believes she has the ability to break through such restrictions.

The moment the barrier was broken, a fragrant aroma wafted over, along with a heavy stench of blood. The combined smell was unpleasant. Upon entering, one could see more than a dozen... corpses of beautiful cultivators before them.

They were all unfinished Corpse Puppet, half of them were at the Foundation Establishment and half at the Nascent Soul stage. There were both men and women among them, including not only Daoist Cultivator but also Demonic Cultivator... They played a variety of games and ate a variety of foods.

Bai Lan frowned, saved her game on the spot, and then slowly walked into the room.

As soon as she stepped into the cave abode, a black light flashed in the pupils of two Tribulation Crossing stage Corpse Puppet in the distance, and they slowly began to move, accompanied by the creaking sound of bones.

As he activated the Formless Skill, a burst of golden light Bai Lan's body. Then, in the instant that the two Corpse Puppet were slowed down by the Buddhist light, he raised his hand and unleashed two lightning balls containing the Purple Firmament True Fire.

The Purple Firmament True Fire instantly spread to the entire body of the Corpse Puppet Corpse Puppet, turning them into ashes amidst a series of shrill screams.

These two Corpse Puppet puppets are only half-grade, lacking any intelligence. They only have the ability to recognize their master and sense that the aura is not familiar, which is why they attacked Bai Lan.

"Who are you?" It seemed as if the young man's voice came faintly from the depths of the cave abode after hearing the noise outside.

Bai Lan extended her Divine Sense to scan the area, her expression immediately turned strange upon seeing the familiar figure.

After a moment's thought, Bai Lan pulled out the system from the Void Stone and asked in confusion, "Did Nangong Yuan in the story actually have an experience of being captured by the patriarch of the Corpse Refining Sect?"

This is the second senior brother of the Bai Ling. She thought that Nangong Yuan had been kidnapped by He Gui when he disappeared. She didn't expect to meet Ju Tong here.

"Uh, no, Nangong Yuan did get a short clip of the ordeal, amnesia, and escape. According to the plot, he will be saved by the Bai Ling." The system wondered, "Wait, you didn't run into Nangong Yuan in this godforsaken place... Oh dear, the Bai Ling's Harem is not clean."

The Bai Ling is currently preoccupied with its own problems and has no way to build a harem by saving people.

"I never expected that the patriarch of the Corpse Refining Sect would actually take the Bai Ling Drama..." Bai Lan's expression turned strange.

The system fell into deep thought, "I searched the memory module and found that the host originally wanted to take advantage of Nangong Yuan and use him for a while. Unfortunately, he unexpectedly encountered the soul of Senior Miaoyunzi, which wasted a lot of time. After that, he rushed to take over the territory of the Joyous Union Sect. Every fortuitous opportunity after that was more valuable than Nangong Yuan, so he didn't care about it anymore."

"It's alright, since we're already here, we might as well take him with us. This kid still has some use." Bai Lan nodded and strode into the depths of the cave abode.

Whether Nangong Yuan is dead or alive, his identity is extremely valuable.

Nangong Yuan's true identity is the young master of the Nangong family in the Cangwu Continent. If you ask why the young master would leave his Lineage and come to the Mist Cloud Continent to join the Azure Origin Sect and become a disciple of True Person Qing Xuan?

The reason for this is that the young master is used to the life of being a young master at home and wants to venture out into the cultivation world alone to gain freedom.

"Who are you? Are you in cahoots with that Nascent Soul Old Devil?!" Nangong Yuan had no memory at the moment, but the memory of being beaten up once made him wary of Bai Lan who suddenly appeared in front of him.

"My dear child, I am your ancestor." Bai Lan smiled kindly and stepped forward to pat Nangong Yuan's head, "I've made you suffer, child. Your ancestor will rescue you right away."

Elder Fu paused in his action of absorbing the Soul Nourishing Essence, and chuckled softly, "What a wicked girl."

The tone of the Bai Lan was too loving and the mannerisms were too much like those of the ancestor, making it difficult for Bai Lan Nangong Yuan to tell whether the voice of the ancestor was real or fake.

"You, you're my ancestor? Really?" Bai Lan Nangong Yuan stared at her suspiciously as she untied the Spirit Binding Rope that had been binding him.

Bai Lan slapped Nangong Yuan on the head and shouted angrily, "Idiot! Don't you even remember who your ancestors were!"

Tears streamed down Nangong Yuan from the pain, but because of the fact that Bai Lan's cultivation was a whole realm higher than his, he had no choice but to swallow his anger and remain silent. "..."

"Remember this, I am your ancestor. In the future, be more respectful when you speak to your ancestor. If you offend your ancestor, I will simply send you away."

Nangong Yuan remained silent. Why did he feel that the old ancestor's behavior was so similar to that of the Demonic Path path? It was quite strange.

"Answer me." Bai Lan coldly swept her Divine Sense over Nangong Yuan, the pressure of the Nascent Soul stage stage Divine Sense making him shiver.

"Yes! Yes, Ancestor." Nangong Yuan hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Although I don't know the situation, although the old ancestor in front of me looks really fierce.

... This person, with only the Tribulation Crossing stage, was able to break into the cave abode of Nascent Soul Cultivator and rescue him all by himself. He must be a true ancestor, right?

Nangong Yuan scratched his head, lost in thought.

"Your identity is a disciple of the Azure Origin Sect Jade Purity Peak of the Qingyuan Sect, and the grand- Peak Master of Jade Purity Peak. In the future, when you are out in public, do not use your status as the Second Master's grand-disciple to call him ancestor. Remember to call Peak Master. Do you understand?"

"... Understood, Elder... Understood, Peak Master."
