"Zhao Huai, don't exaggerate," the young man said condescendingly, sneering. "Do you think you know why Yan Ruyu brought you with him when he came to this Ancient Wilderness to look for me?"
Feng Zhan frowned slightly. Yan Ruyu covered his chest, feeling a bit stuffy there. "We're brothers. Wherever he goes, it's only natural for him to bring me along. There's no need to make wild speculations."
"Good, very good," Zhao Huai clapped his hands. Yan Ruyu's voice carried a hint of urgency. "Zhao Huai, talking too much won't do you any good."
"Jiujiu, please take care of Bu Ran for me first." Nineteen glanced at Feng Zhan and then did as he was told.
"Auntie!" "Bu Ran, if you still recognize me as your elder, then don't say a word at this moment." Yan Ruyu's snow - white face turned even paler. "You should rest first."
Zhao Huai watched this scene and continued, "Yan Ruyu has an extremely cold constitution. The only reason he can suppress the cold qi in his body is because he has the Red Lotus Karma Fire in him. That's also the life - saving natal lotus left by your father for him."
"I've already checked. The Red Lotus Karma Fire is still in Bu Ran's body," Feng Zhan said.
"Yes, it is. But he gave the sub - fire of the Karma Red Lotus to Xiao Ning'er. On one hand, it helped Xiao Ning'er a great deal, but on the other hand, it also weakened the power of the main Karma Red Lotus."
Feng Zhan lowered his eyes. Zhao Huai went on, "The cold qi has invaded his body, and he has an extremely yin constitution. Moreover, due to the deficiency of qi and blood, his body suddenly suffered a serious illness. Do you really think his white hair is just because of excessive grief?"
Feng Zhan was terrified and extremely scared. Nineteen tugged at Bu Ran's corner of the clothes.
Zhao Huai continued, "Moreover, the Ghost Domain was originally out of his control. He once made a contract with his blood. But after all, he is the Millennium Imperial Tutor and the founding ancestor of this Nine - Continent Continent. Even with the contract, it wouldn't be difficult for him to set foot in the Ghost Domain. Why did he bring you along? It's because the power of the Red Lotus Karma Fire in his body is getting weaker and weaker. This Ancient Wilderness is also an extremely cold place. If you didn't go with him, I'm afraid the time he could talk to me here would be greatly shortened."
Feng Zhan turned around and saw Bu Ran's evasive look. He understood most of it. He also had the power of the Karma Red Lotus in his body. Back then, he and Feng Lingtong were twins, twin lotuses. So did Bu Ran bring him along because the power of the Karma Red Lotus in his body was greatly weakened and was no longer enough to resist the extreme cold of the Ancient Wilderness?
The answer was beyond doubt.
"Bu Ran, you shouldn't have hidden this from me." "Brother, I'm fine."
At this moment, Yan Ruyu still showed a smile. "Yan Ruyu, you just didn't expect that because of my arrival, this Ancient Wilderness has become even colder, and the violent qi has filled the whole land. As a result, your body couldn't bear it. That's why this time, the cold qi in your body attacked your heart, your blood vessels reversed, and your fresh blood flowed backwards, right?"
"Zhao Huai, you're not an unreasonable person. I've already told you my purpose for coming this time, and you also know the stakes involved. You always avoid me, so I had to come to you. You still need to think it over carefully. I don't want to have a lose - lose situation, and neither does Ning'er."
Yan Ruyu paused for a moment and then said, "After all, you're Ning'er's relative, the one she regards as her elder brother."
Zhao Huai's expression wavered a bit, but he just waved his sleeve and turned around. Others couldn't see his expression. "You don't need to remind me. If it weren't for Xiao Ning'er, do you think I would be willing to listen to your nonsense? You can go back. I promise you that I won't act rashly until the matter of the Millennium Stone Soul is properly handled."
"Then, thank you very much." "No need. I'm doing this to avoid putting Xiao Ning'er in a difficult position. It has nothing to do with you."
Yan Ruyu smiled. After all, the supreme beast who had experienced the human world still had a trace of human emotion. This concession was already an extremely good result for them at present.
"Hurry up and leave. If you stay in this Ancient Wilderness for too long, I'm afraid your body will really be left here." If it weren't for the fact that he gave the sub - fire of the red lotus to Xiao Ning'er to protect her, Zhao Huai definitely wouldn't have let Yan Ruyu off so easily.
But it was also strange. Yan Ruyu's spiritual power was extremely powerful. Even if he was attacked extremely violently, he shouldn't be so vulnerable.
Could it be? The last time on the cliff? He received Xiao Ning'er's bone whistle sound in advance and it took him quite a while to get there, while Yan Ruyu's expression at that time showed that he appeared instantly.
Did he forcefully tear apart the plane space? Didn't Yan Ruyu know that doing so would cause great damage to his body?
Zhao Huai slowly clenched his fists. When he turned around, Yan Ruyu and the others had already gone far away. But in Zhao Huai's heart, there was suddenly a trace of fear.
If it were himself, would he take the risk of tearing apart his own power just to rush to save Xiao Ning'er in an instant? Zhao Huai hesitated.
There was no doubt about Xiao Ning'er's weight in his heart, but would he take such a great risk? "Maybe you're more willing to sacrifice than me."
But she was also an indispensable and important person in his life. As long as there was the slightest hope, he would never give up on her.
Zhao Huai flapped his huge wings and flew back to his residence. Hun Dun paced back and forth on the spot. "Is it the Emperor coming?"
"Something really big must be about to happen. Otherwise, he would never set foot in the Ancient Wilderness when his body is so weak." Zhao Huai nodded. "Something is going to happen."
Moreover, it was an earth - shattering event that would affect all planes.
Feng Zhan led Yan Ruyu and left the Ghost Domain with Nineteen. Along the way, his face was tense. He didn't laugh and talk like before and remained silent all the way.
After Yan Ruyu left the Ghost Domain, his body was no longer as cold and unbearable as before. He also didn't say a word. At this moment, if he spoke, his elder brother would still be angry and definitely wouldn't listen to him.
Moreover, this matter was really his fault. His original intention was not to make his elder brother worry. Yan Ruyu was just afraid that once Feng Zhan knew about it, he would become like this.
They first found a place to stay. Feng Zhan sent Yan Ruyu to the room and walked out of the door without saying a word. Just as he was about to close the door, Nineteen came out to smooth things over.
"Can't you two brothers just sit down and have a good talk? A Zhan, don't you know who Bu Ran is? If you're so angry with him, he'll feel bad too."
Feng Zhan glared angrily at Yan Ruyu in the room and said irritably, "What kind of brothers are we? If we were really brothers of the same mother, he wouldn't have done such a thing as hiding it from his elder brother."
Yan Ruyu stood up and replied, "Brother, I'm really not as seriously ill as Zhao Huai said. There's really no need to mention this matter. I can handle it."
Feng Zhan originally thought that if Yan Ruyu showed a bit of softness, he would take the opportunity to step down. But when Bu Ran said this, Feng Zhan's temper flared up again.
He stretched out his index finger, trembling with anger, and pointed at Yan Ruyu. "Look, look. Who's his real brother? He doesn't even regard me as his elder brother!"
Yan Ruyu rubbed his forehead. "Bu Ran," Nineteen spoke up in time. Yan Ruyu understood and stood up.
"Brother, I was wrong." Feng Zhan looked a bit proud and seemed to still want to put on airs. Nineteen tugged at his sleeve, and only then did he reluctantly say with a hint of a smile, "Do you really realize your mistake?"
