Chapter 463: Meeting Lan Yan and Arriving at Qiaoying Manor
Since arriving at Chenyu Valley, Huang Long Yidou and Jiaming's long-distance running training has been abandoned, replaced by the Warcraft trials that may appear at any time.
Wave after wave, morning, noon, and night, as if they are popping up all the time.
This frequency also caused people to curse.
It’s totally against common sense!!
At the same time, they felt grateful and sighed for Jiaming's dedication and Ara Taki Ichito who joined them halfway.
If it weren't for the two of them, I might have been killed by the beast half a month ago.
Some even went so far as to publicly swear to the sky that after this trip he would go back and confess his love to the girl he liked and be caring and filial to the elderly at home.
Well, hearing such words naturally encouraged and supported others, but also made Ara Taki Ichito's face darken by more than one degree.
Apart from the sudden attacks of Warcraft and the bumpy mountain roads, the journey was quite smooth.
Well, at least that's what Aratake Ichito thought.
.........
"Everyone be careful! The monsters are coming again!"
"Damn it, protect the cargo!"
"You bunch of beasts, I'm going to chop you alive!"
The ferocious monster rushed down from the valley, roaring and running towards us.
Seeing this, the warriors holding weapons had red eyes and rushed towards the monsters, howling.
The incessant sneak attacks and fighting these past few days had already filled them with a simmering anger. If not now, when?!
Jiaming also rushed forward first. Now, even if he didn't use the Eye of God, he could still kill most monsters with the weapons in his hands.
Arataki Ichito sat cross-legged on the carriage, looking down at their fight.
If a monster broke through the defense line, he would bend his finger and shoot out a stone, which would accurately hit the opponent's head and kill the enemy instantly.
call out!call out!
Just when the two sides were fighting fiercely, two silver arcs of light suddenly flew out from the forest, like entangled dragons and snakes, or like silver swallows chasing the wind, making a sound of breaking through the air and heading straight for the monster.
As arcs of light danced, several monsters screamed and fell to the ground, and were silent after a moment.
Everyone in the caravan marveled at the speed and lethality of the arc light, and Jiaming couldn't help but feel happy.
And Ara Taki Ichito, who was sitting on the roof of the carriage, couldn't help but have his eyes light up, thinking to himself that it was fate, fate, it was really wonderful.
Two silver arcs of light curved in the air and fell back into the hands of the girl who walked out of the woods. Upon closer inspection, the stunning silver arcs of light turned out to be two crescent-shaped rings.
The girl was wearing a green dress and many silver ornaments. The most eye-catching one was the silver-feathered jade bird on her forehead, which symbolized her status.
The silver ornaments jingled with the girl's movements, the sound was clear and crisp, just like the sound of flowing mountain springs.
"Lan Yan, why are you here?"
As soon as the battle was over, Jiaming asked the girl.
Lan Yan put away the Jianyue Ring in his hand and said, "Ah, about this, actually I happened to hear the roar of the monster when I passed by here, so I rushed over to help. I didn't expect that you were here too, Jiaming."
"You came just in time!"
Jiaming looked excited, "I was just looking for you!"
Lan Yan was stunned for a moment, "Huh? Looking for me?"
"Yes, one of the reasons we came here is to find you. We need your help with something."
As he spoke, Jiaming turned around and called out,
"Hey! Teacher! I found the person, please come over quickly..."
"Stop howling. I'm not deaf. I can hear you."
A lazy voice interrupted Jiaming, and the expressionless man walked towards the two of them with steady steps.
Lan Yan looked puzzled, "Who is this gentleman?"
Jiaming introduced enthusiastically, "Ah, let me introduce you. This is Wu Dahai, Uncle Wu. He saved our lives when we encountered the monster before, and he is now my teacher."
"Teacher, this is the person I mentioned who might be able to help you, Lan Yan."
"Miss Lan Yan? Nice to meet you."
Arataki Ichito stretched out his hand with a calm expression.
"Well, Mr. Wu, it's nice to meet you."
Lan Yan shook hands back, and then the two quickly separated.
Then, Lan Yan couldn't help but ask, "Um, Mr. Wu, what do you need me to do?"
Araki Ichito turned his gaze towards Jiaming and said, "Let him talk. Besides, the caravan is about to arrive at Qiaoying Manor, so we can talk while we're walking."
After saying that, Ara Taki Ichito turned and walked towards the caravan and waved to the two of them.
In this way, the caravan gained one more person.
.........
In the carriage, within a short while, after Jiaming's explanation, Lan Yan's brows were furrowed.
She murmured, "No wonder the monsters in Chenyu Valley have been rioting recently..."
Arata Ichito frowned and asked, "Speaking of which, did you see the two-headed monster we were talking about in Chenyu Valley?"
Lan Yan shook his head. "Unfortunately, no. If I had seen it, I would have immediately looked through ancient books and started investigating."
"Well, it's not too late now that you know we're investigating."
Arata Ichito spoke to comfort him.
"By the way, Mr. Wu, I want to ask you a question. How did you determine that the mastermind behind the incident must be related to ancient times and not the present?"
Arataki Ichito crossed his hands and placed them flat on his chin, his eyes gleaming, "Because current technology is completely incapable of achieving that level of transformation."
"The body is clearly stitched together in multiple places, yet it flows smoothly and naturally, as if it were one. It's like a real tribe. When they die, they don't bleed or melt into the earth veins, but turn into flying jade chips."
"I guess the creation process of this thing is no longer enough to be called craftsmanship. A more appropriate metaphor would be - a miracle."
"Immortal traces?" x2
The two of them were cheered up.
Arata Ichito continued to explain, "That's right, it's a miracle. It transforms decay into magic, makes the impossible possible. It's beyond human comprehension. What else could it be but a miracle?"
"I dare say that the mastermind behind this incident is not some mad scientist, nor some ordinary person who masters ancient crafts. It is very likely that he is a powerful immortal who crawled out of history. The probability of this is far higher than other possibilities."
"Mr. Wu, why are you so sure?"
Lan Yan's face was solemn. "Resurrection from the dead? Even a true god wouldn't be able to perform such a miracle. How did you..."
"I have seen more than one."
Arataki Ichito interrupted her.
"What??!"
Lan Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, and Jiaming beside him also looked surprised.
Arataki Ichito's expression remained the same. "It's specifically with Inazuma. Don't worry, everything I said is true. I can provide evidence if you want. There's no need to lie to you. Just trust me."
"Even if you say so, this is too..."
Lan Yan seemed to be having trouble speaking.
The corners of Jiaming's mouth twitched, and only one voice echoed in his heart.
What kind of tough guy did I find as a teacher?
"arrive."
Arata Ichito said softly and immediately got off the carriage.
The two people in the carriage looked out and found that the caravan had entered Qiaoying Manor without them noticing.
Looking at the thin figure, the two were speechless for a moment, and had to get off the carriage obediently and follow him.
