The Ice Clan's Treasure Was Stolen

Over the past few days, Na Lan Yan Ran's behavior has aroused Zu An'er's immense curiosity.

Why does Na Lan Yan Ran always grab things casually when she goes shopping, without ever needing to greet the stall owners or shopkeepers?

Human curiosity is very difficult to suppress. For the past few days, Zu An'er has been tossing and turning, unable to sleep, still unable to figure out what exactly happened.

After Na Lan Yan Ran left, she quietly asked the shop owners, but the only answer she received was, "Girl, what are you saying? I don't understand." Then she stopped talking to them.

"Could it be that she has the ability to erase people's memories?" One day, Zu An'er followed behind Na Lan Yan Ran and witnessed Na Lan Yan Ran's magical ability again.

As she was pondering, Na Lan Yan Ran suddenly appeared behind Zu An'er, startling her.

"An'er, what brings you out shopping today? Are you hungry? How about I treat you to a meal?" Na Lan Yan Ran said politely with a smile.

"Hmph, I don't care if you treat me," Zu An'er initially intended to leave, but out of curiosity, she quickly added, "However, I'll give you a chance; you can treat me to a meal."

The two arrived together at a well-known restaurant in the Ice Seal City. They each took a seat, and Na Lan Yan Ran glanced at the menu on the table. Then, as if possessed, she suddenly shouted, "Balala the Fairies, Dark Magic Energy, Transform, transform, transform!"

As soon as the strange incantation was uttered, Zu An'er didn't initially find anything odd. However, she saw that shortly after the incantation was finished, plates of delicious food were served on the table.

"This..." Zu An'er was completely dumbfounded. Na Lan Yan Ran had only recited a spell, and the table was immediately filled with food and wine by the waiters. Was this for real?

"An'er, don't just stand there, eat quickly, the food will get cold." Na Lan Yan Ran picked up her chopsticks and started eating by herself, ignoring what Zu An'er was thinking.

After finishing her meal, Na Lan Yan Ran wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and strode out of the restaurant. Surprisingly, the restaurant owners did not stop her from leaving.

"Boss, she... she hasn't paid yet!" Zu An'er grabbed the restaurant owner, refusing to believe it.

The restaurant owner scratched his head, looking bewildered, and said, "What are you talking about, young lady? I don't understand."

It's that same phrase again; every shop owner has been answering her with the same answer these past few days.

Zu An'er was completely stunned. She hadn't expected that Na Lan Yan Ran would actually possess such a strange ability, which seemed to be the ability to control people's minds. Otherwise, why could she have taken other people's goods so easily without any effort these past few days?

Walking down the street, Zu An'er didn't dare to get too close to Na Lan Yan Ran, fearing that the other woman might also control her mind.

No, she had to report the whole thing to the Clan Leader.

"An'er, look how pretty this necklace is! Doesn't it suit you perfectly?"

Just as Zu An'er was about to leave, Na Lan Yan Ran suddenly called out to her, holding a gemstone necklace that she had just taken from the stall.

"Yes, it looks great," Zu An'er nodded expressionlessly.

"Since it's so beautiful, I'll give it to you." Na Lan Yan Ran handed the necklace to Zu An'er, then suddenly uttered a spell, "Moon Prism Power, Transform!"

After another incantation was uttered, the stall owner actually smiled and then ignored Na Lan Yan Ran.

Zu An'er gasped, this was truly... incredible.

If she could master the usage of so many of Na Lan Yan Ran's spells, wouldn't all the treasures of the Dou Qi Continent be within her grasp?

With that in mind, Zu An'er immediately changed her expression and put on a fawning and ingratiating look.

"Sister Yanran, um... could you...?"

"What can I do?"

"Could you teach me your spells too?" Zu An'er asked somewhat shyly.

"Oh, I thought it was some kind of request," Na Lan Yan Ran said selflessly, patting Zu An'er on the shoulder. "These spells of mine have always been kept secret, but since you called me 'sister,' I'll definitely grant your request!"

Zu An'er was overjoyed and could no longer hide her excitement. She insisted on pulling Na Lan Yan Ran aside and asking her to immediately teach her how to use these spells.

Na Lan Yan Ran was quite the player. Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, she immediately pretended to be coaxing and said, "It's not impossible to learn how to use these spells, but you have to give me something in return. I can't just teach you these methods of spell cultivation for nothing."

"What?" Zu An'er was slightly angry. This Na Lan Yan Ran actually wanted to ask her for tuition fees?

She swallowed her anger and agreed to their terms.

As night fell, taking advantage of the family guards' laxity, Zu An'er secretly broke into the Ice Clan's secret treasury, taking away a large number of high-level pills, divine weapons, and rare treasures. She then went into Na Lan Yan Ran's room.

Na Lan Yan Ran looked at the room full of treasures with great satisfaction before gladly passing on all of Zu An'er's spells.

After Zu An'er left the house, Na Lan Yan Ran immediately refined and absorbed all the treasures. She also put all the divine weapons and artifacts into her Storage Ring space, and then she suddenly left the house as well.

Both harbored their own ulterior motives. After obtaining numerous methods for using spells, Zu An'er gave a sinister smile.

This time, he not only obtained a magical spell, but also completely outmaneuvered Na Lan Yan Ran. By tomorrow morning, Na Lan Yan Ran will be utterly disgraced, and even Leng Ao Han will be unable to protect her.

The next morning, what was bound to happen, happened.

A huge upheaval has broken out within the Ice Clan.

Nearly one-tenth of the treasures in the clan's treasury were stolen.

This major event also alarmed Leng Tong, the Clan Leader of the Ice Clan, and Clan Leader wife, Zu Xian.

The elders of the Ice Clan quickly analyzed the situation. To enter the clan's treasure vault undetected, it couldn't have been an outsider; it must have been one of their own.

"Investigate this matter thoroughly immediately. I, the Clan Leader, want to see just who is so audacious as to manage to deceive everyone."

Leng Tong was furious. Ice Seal City had just been made public, and now this family scandal had surfaced. If outsiders found out, wouldn't they laugh their heads off?

The clan elders began a large-scale investigation, and no matter how high their position, they were all controlled by the clan's private army and interrogated one by one.

This terrified Zu An'er. If the investigation continued like this, it would definitely lead back to her.

She immediately took the initiative, transforming herself into a righteous and selfless whistleblower, and reported Na Lan Yan Ran's crimes to the Clan Leader chief's wife.

"An'er, are you saying that the woman Han'er brought back stole the treasures from the treasury?" Clan Leader's wife Zu Xian asked carefully.

"That's how it is, little aunt," Zu An'er nodded solemnly. "Yesterday I noticed that Na Lan Yan Ran was acting suspiciously. I was planning to explain to the Clan Leader today, but unexpectedly this morning, a large number of treasures were stolen from our clan's treasury. It's simply outrageous!"

The Clan Leader chief's wife's expression also turned cold. Ever since her son, Leng Ao Han, brought that woman back, she had not thought highly of her.

What virtue or ability does an ordinary woman from the secular world possess to be worthy of her beloved son? If, as Zu An'er claims, Na Lan Yan Ran exploited Leng Ao Han's feelings and colluded with outsiders to steal the clan's treasure trove, then she would surely eliminate Na Lan Yan Ran to prevent further trouble after Leng Ao Han marries her.

"An'er, are you really sure that everything that went missing from the clan's treasury is in the hands of that woman named Na Lan Yan Ran?"

"Aunt, I'm absolutely certain," Zu An'er nodded quickly, "You must not underestimate that woman. Although she looks very weak, she has the ability to control people's minds. When you're done, just capture her, but make sure she doesn't say anything strange."

The Clan Leader's wife suddenly stood up and, leading the clan's guards, rushed towards Na Lan Yan Ran's residence.

Seeing this, Zu An'er smiled smugly. "Na Lan Yan Ran, I think you're doomed this time."

At this moment, Na Lan Yan Ran was admiring the flowers in the courtyard, and Leng Ao Han happened to be right beside her. The two were strolling in the courtyard and chatting happily when a group of family guards rushed into the courtyard.

"Search thoroughly!" A captain of the guards commanded a group of Dou Zong experts as they stormed into Na Lan Yan Ran's boudoir, ransacking the place as if searching for something.

"What are you doing? Stop it!" Leng Ao Han shouted when she saw the guards' extremely rude behavior, which startled them all into stopping what they were doing.

"Han'er, I'm the one who made them do this," the Clan Leader's wife said, appearing in the courtyard with Zu An'er.

"Leng Ao Han dared not be disrespectful and hurriedly stepped forward to perform the filial piety ceremony.

The Clan Leader's wife ignored her son and instead came up to Na Lan Yan Ran, giving her a good look.

"Although you have an outstanding appearance, it's a pity you're a useless person who can't cultivate. Do you really think you're worthy of my son?" The Clan Leader's wife exuded an air of authority, with a condescending and arrogant demeanor that looked down on all living beings.

Na Lan Yan Ran also brazenly glanced at Leng Ao Han's mother. The woman in front of her was an Eight-Star Dou Zun. Although she was past her prime, she had a way of preserving her youth, and her appearance was kept at around twenty years old.

"Grandma, whether I'm good enough for you or not isn't up to you to decide, it's up to your son. You have to ask him," Na Lan Yan Ran said with a smile.

"How dare you!" The Clan Leader's wife was enraged by Na Lan Yan Ran's address of her as "old lady" and mercilessly slapped Na Lan Yan Ran on the forehead.
