Eternal Blood Emperor-Chapter 531: Lan Family Inner Mansion

Wang Ruoxie turned his head and saw Lan Ying walking briskly towards him, revealing a look of surprise in his eyes.

He clearly did not expect Lan Ying to actively seek him out.

After all, they had only met once, and Lan Ying’s impression of him seemed not to be very good.

"Do you need something?"

Wang Ruoxie smiled lightly at Lan Ying and asked.

"I want to ask you for a favor."

Lan Ying walked up to Wang Ruoxie, pondered for a moment, and then directly spoke.

Although she indeed did not have much good feeling towards Wang Ruoxie in her heart, she had no choice now but to ask for his help.

Because among the three who passed the assessment, another person named Guan Wei, his talent in Divine Patterns was far inferior to Yuwen Jian, even if he became Qin Hao Master’s disciple, his status would certainly be lower than Yuwen Jian.

"What favor?"

Wang Ruoxie asked.

"Do you still remember what Yuwen Jian said to me before?"

Lan Ying said with a bitter expression in her eyes.

"Yes."

Wang Ruoxie nodded. Previously, Yuwen Jian seemed to have said that after passing the assessment and becoming Qin Hao Master’s disciple, he would go to the Lan Family to propose marriage.

"So can you accompany me back to the Lan Family and say you are my good friend? I believe that if my elders know you are Qin Hao Master’s disciple, they certainly won’t force me to do anything."

Lan Ying continued, "At that time, even if Yuwen Jian really comes to propose to the Lan Family, I can directly refuse."

"Our relationship doesn’t seem to be that good yet?"

Wang Ruoxie chuckled lightly and responded.

"Are you afraid of Yuwen Jian?"

Lan Ying’s eyes stared directly at Wang Ruoxie and said.

"Don’t try to goad me. I’m not afraid of Yuwen Jian, but I need you to give me a reason why I should help you with this favor."

Wang Ruoxie smiled and said.

"What do you want?"

Lan Ying furrowed her elegant brows and asked.

After a pause, she continued, "If you, like him, have any ideas about me, then I must have misjudged you."

"Rest assured, I have no interest in you, and I have a girlfriend. She is more beautiful than you."

Wang Ruoxie chuckled lightly and replied.

"Even if so, you don’t have to be so direct."

Hearing Wang Ruoxie’s words, Lan Ying breathed a heavy sigh of relief but rolled her eyes at him and said irritably.

After all, she was considered a celebrated beauty in the Holy Capital, with countless young men admiring her. Yet, this guy bluntly claimed he wasn’t interested in her and even said she was not as beautiful as his girlfriend.

Of course, she didn’t believe such a guy could have a very beautiful girlfriend. It must be untrue words to undermine her.

"How about this, I can help you with this favor, but you must also help me with a favor in return."

Wang Ruoxie said to Lan Ying.

"Okay, what do you want me to help you with?"

Lan Ying agreed without the slightest hesitation.

"I want you to use the Lan Family’s power to help me investigate information on a person named Profound Lady. She may have existed as far back as the Ancient Era or even earlier."

Wang Ruoxie said directly.

He knew very well that relying solely on himself, finding the Profound Lady in the vast Tianqian Great World was more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack, so he must leverage some powerful forces.

"Sure, no problem."

Lan Ying nodded and said, "Although my Lan Family is not considered the top-tier force in the entire Tianqian Great World, nor can it compare to those Overlord Level forces, it’s a first-rate family with a heritage of over ten thousand years. Investigating someone’s information should not be difficult."

"You first come with me to the Enlightenment Hall, then I will go with you back to the Lan Family."

Wang Ruoxie nodded slightly and then said.

"What for?"

Lan Ying asked curiously.

"To find someone."

"Who?"

"My girlfriend."

"Really? Then I must see if your girlfriend is truly as beautiful as you say."

"You won’t be disappointed."

In a simple conversation, the two walked towards the Enlightenment Hall.

Moments later, Wang Ruoxie and Lan Ying arrived at the Enlightenment Hall.

"Which one is your girlfriend?"

Lan Ying’s eyes scanned the entire Enlightenment Hall and asked.

"She’s not here."

Wang Ruoxie’s brows furrowed, Xiao Ningyue was already not in the Enlightenment Hall.

"You’re Wang Ruoxie, right?"

At this time, a stranger’s voice suddenly came.

Both turned at the words and saw a young man with purple eyes speaking.

"It’s me."

Wang Ruoxie nodded, responding.

"I’m Gong Zi Yu, Senior Sister Ningyue asked me to tell you she’s gone ahead, so you don’t need to worry about her."

The purple-eyed young man continued: "The reason she left is that her master is taking her away from the Saint Institute to a certain Secret Realm to seek great fortune in order to help her enhance her cultivation power. She should return within half a year at the most."

"Master?"

Wang Ruoxie’s eyes narrowed slightly.

"Not long ago, the master came to the Enlightenment Hall and, seeing the extraordinary aptitude of myself and Senior Sister Ningyue, accepted both of us as disciples."

Gong Zi Yu nodded and said.

"Ningyue should also have been accepted by a senior member of the Saint Institute, just like me."

Wang Ruoxie thought to himself after hearing Gong Zi Yu’s words.

"It seems I won’t be seeing your girlfriend for now."

After leaving the Enlightenment Hall, Lan Ying smiled at Wang Ruoxie.

"Have you ever heard of the Chang Su Divine King?"

Wang Ruoxie’s gaze turned to Lan Ying and asked.

From Gong Zi Yu’s information, Wang Ruoxie learned that Xiao Ningyue’s new master is named Chang Su, a peerless expert in the Divine King Realm.

"Of course I’ve heard of her. You must know that in the entire Great Qian Holy Dynasty, the Divine King Realm is almost considered the top tier of strength, with an identity that’s extremely esteemed."

Lan Ying nodded and said, "Chang Su Divine King is also one of the rare female Divine Kings, not only with world-beating beauty but also with extremely powerful abilities. Most importantly, it’s said her relationship with the sovereign is quite unusual."

"If that’s truly the case, then for the time being, there’s no need to worry about Saint Child Yanghui harboring ill intentions towards Ningyue."

Wang Ruoxie thought to himself, having such a master is a great blessing for Xiao Ningyue.

About an hour later, Wang Ruoxie was led by Lan Ying to the outside of the Lan Family Mansion.

The Lan Family is considered a first-rate family in the entire Holy Capital, with a heritage of over ten thousand years, and counting all members, has at least tens of millions in number.

Therefore, the Lan Family Mansion is very vast, even able to be regarded as a small city.

After walking in the Lan Mansion for nearly half an hour, they finally arrived at the Inner Mansion.

Like most family forces, the Lan Family naturally has not only lineal clansmen but also many branch clansmen, and even external family members with the largest numbers.

However, only true lineal clansmen of the Lan Family can freely enter the Inner Mansion.

"Lan Ying, you dare to bring outsiders privately into the Inner Mansion."

At this time, a voice suddenly came.
