I Can See Your Combat Power
Chapter 1230 - Chapter 1230 Chapter 523 Xiang Lan

Chapter 1230: Chapter 523: Xiang Lan Chapter 1230: Chapter 523: Xiang Lan Tang Baichuan, such an important person, actually couldn’t leave the garrison for too long. Hence, after entrusting the two matters for discussion, Tang Luo used the Spirit World Passage to send him back to the Nangang Garrison.

After seeing off Lord Baichuan, Tang Luo walked back to the Wilderness through the passage but turned off at a certain fork in the road, eventually arriving at an area resembling a honeycomb, full of holes.

This place was originally prepared by Yun Zu as a temporary resting spot for refugees, but now it had become a little den for Tang Luo and Yun Xiu, and was furnished with simple yet exquisite items.

Yet, in this gloomy, lightless environment, they could only use fire crystals for illumination, making it impossible to see the craftsmanship of these handmade items clearly.

“I’m back.”

Tang Luo looked up and called out softly to the woman who was continuously setting up the cave, his voice filled with cheer.

In fact, compared to a big courtyard like the one in South City, he preferred this small cave in front of him.

The feeling of having no doors, no cover, just the two of them was particularly beautiful. Especially lying in the neighboring cave, so close that he could hear the neighbor’s breathing, it gave Tang Luo a great sense of peace.

If it weren’t for the fact that the dark environment seemed truly unhealthy and the sparse Spiritual Power in the Spirit World Passage greatly increased the cost of cultivation, he would really like to stay here all the time without stepping out.

Yun Xiu turned her head to look at Tang Luo who had flown up to her with a face full of pleading and her cheeks flushed crimson.

It was two caves lying side by side, yet somehow this morning she discovered she had unexpectedly ended up in his.

Of course, she would not believe this was her own fault–it must have been some underhanded trick used by the Devil Lord.

But women, once they’ve invested emotions, their tolerance and boundaries fall into an abyss, and they can find satisfactory excuses even for such despicable behavior that would have been intolerable before.

Still, the embarrassment of that morning made her somewhat flustered. At times like this, to strike up a conversation, how embarrassing it was, so Yun Xiu turned her head away and ignored him.

But Tang Luo felt no embarrassment whatsoever. In his view, it was just an exercise of pre-existing rights. What was the big deal?

Acting as if nothing was wrong, he approached Yun Xiu’s door, leaned on the wall, and started talking excitedly about his own plans, sharing his speculations, “…before resolving the issue with the Divine Symbol and the Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul in my body, I’m afraid I can’t show my face outside. Do you really want to live with me inside the Spirit World Passage?”

“Why do you think the Xiang Family used the Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul to find you?”

Since they were discussing serious matters, Yun Xiu set aside her shyness and asked earnestly.

“Think about it.” Tang Luo outlined his process of deduction: “The Xiang Family moved their array and locked down South City, they must have absolute confidence in knowing our location. You also said they didn’t use Wind Media’s methods, so it must be something else.”

“Do you remember when the Cold Moon Spirit Concealment Array locked down South City, and the only ones to intercept you were Xiang Zhuang and the elites of East Camp? Actually, Xiang Yan was already in the array by then, but he was searching for something more important and went elsewhere, so he didn’t cross paths with you.”

“But later, after I joined you, even though we concealed our auras well to hide, we were found out immediately.”

“If the locator had been on you, Xiang Yan wouldn’t have missed. Since it wasn’t on you, it had to be on me.”

“And the only thing on Xiang Yan that could connect with me was the Immortal Cloud Whisk Soul.”

As he spoke, Tang Luo pulled up his Star Robe, revealing his sculpted abs as he touched them, then gave Yun Xiu a mischievous smile.

Yun Xiu discreetly pulled his robe back down, redirecting the conversation back to the main topic, “Then, is there a way to deal with that Divine Symbol?”

“There’s definitely a way.” With several supreme divine abilities at his disposal, whether it was sacrificing a Void Stomach or using the Innate Yin-Yang Grinding Mill to crush it, or even leaping into the void to annihilate it with Void Energy, all were feasible methods; it was just a matter of time.

After all, once the Divine Symbol left the body, it was nothing but an object. Even godly skills manifested by incarnations like Wang Fuling would not be able to baffle a fighter of Tang Luo’s caliber.

“That’s good to hear.”

Yun Xiu nodded in relief, then picked up some food and Clear Water.

“Off to take food to the city lordess again, huh.”

Tang Luo muttered wordlessly, “Actually, martial artists who have transcended the mundane don’t really have a problem with eating once every two or three days…”

“It’s not like we’re short on food.”

Yun Xiu said with a smile, “Besides, didn’t you say that she is your most important asset? What if she starves to death?”

“What important asset is she.”

Tang Luo pursed his lips, looking at Yun Xiu tenderly, “You are my most important asset!”

“Pah!”

With a light spit, Yun Xiu clamored for Tang Luo to get out of the way, then scurried to the place where the female city master was being held, with Clear Water and food in hand.

It was an array designed within the Spirit World Passage, a place Yun Zu used to detain traitors.

The captured female city master was confined here, and since yesterday, she had attempted to escape in dozens of ways; aside from getting herself covered in dust and dirt, she accomplished nothing.

Hearing footsteps in the dark passage, the female city master swiftly sat in the shadows, quickly tidied up her appearance, and put on an unwelcoming expression.

In truth, through the array’s barrier, Yun Xiu could clearly see the dusty and dirty woman inside, and naturally, she also saw the woman’s persistent attempts, but she gave no sign of acknowledgement.

She simply opened a corner of the binding array and set down the Clear Water and food, then turned to leave.

“Wait!”

Since her captivity began yesterday, this woman had delivered food to her twice, each time leaving water and rations before departing.

She did the work of a servant but controlled the sealing array; this should be a good breakthrough point.

The female city master thought to herself and called out to the water-bearing woman.

“Is there something you need?”

Yun Xiu turned her head, asking softly.

“Do you know who I am?”

From the confinement room separated by a wall, the female city master demanded energically from the meal-delivering servant.

Yun Xiu was taken aback, then a mysterious smile appeared as she countered, “Who are you?”

“I am the sole daughter of the Yun Clan, the city master of Chaochang, Yun Xiu. Have you considered the consequences of abducting me here!?”

The female city master stood up, questioning the meal-delivering woman sharply, her imperious demeanor like that of a goddess on high clouds, with quite the air of a capricious princess.

Yet such attitude only made Yun Xiu laugh, “Xiang Lan, even now, you still cling to this lie. I truly feel saddened for you.”

The color drained from the face of the woman in the cell. She leapt up and shouted at the woman outside, “Who are you, who are you?”

“Who I am is not important.”

Turning around, Yun Xiu, with her back to the female city master, said indifferently, “What’s important is, do you still remember who you are?”

The woman in the cell slumped down in defeat, watching the meal-delivering woman walk away, her expression growing increasingly desolate.

She was Xiang Lan, the youngest daughter of Xiang Ange, once treated like a precious pearl held in the palm. However, the only record about her in the world was an early death.
