Hammer in her left hand, sword in her right, the eldest sister is connected to both worlds.

Chapter 684 Trade Your Father for Me

Snowflakes were falling heavily in Yanling City, and Zhu Lingzhi could hear the howling wind.

She couldn't hear anything, didn't want to think about anything, and only one voice kept asking her in her mind.

Is she crazy?

What did the Ninth Elder call the person behind him?

Lord Changjun.

In the entire Yuanming Upper Realm, there is no one else besides the one from the Wolf Clan who can command the kneeling of the Elder Lord.

The hem of her skirt was pulled by the person kneeling on the ground. Zhu Lingzhi came to her senses and then knelt down as well.

"Zhu Lingzhi, a junior member of the Phoenix Clan, greets Your Excellency."

The Northern Glacier, the Undying Overlord, the Demon Cultivator with the Highest Cultivation in the Upper Realm, the Tyrant Who Established His Dominion over the Upper Realm.

Why are you kneeling down?

Xue Lan raised her hand to pat Zhu Lingzhi's shoulder, but the old man behind her was faster, crawling forward on his knees to protect the younger Zhu Lingzhi behind him, and said loudly:

"It has been more than a thousand years since I last saw my elder brother."

Looking at his trembling body, Xue Lan suddenly remembered that in this man's eyes, she was still the villain who had pulled out all the hairs off someone's tail more than a thousand years ago.

For a moment, Lord Wolf was at a loss for words, so he raised his hand to Jin Chen, who was kneeling to one side:

"Give me the little tiger."

Jin Chen tucked Jin Can under his armpits and spoke in a trembling voice upon hearing this:

"Sir...sir..."

"My little sister is young and doesn't know any better. Do you think I can handle this?"

Xue Lan couldn't hold back any longer and raised her hand to poke Jin Chen's forehead: "A tiger your age already weighs two hundred pounds, you're a hundred pounds heavier than the others, do you expect me to carry you around?"

After he said that, there was complete silence.

Both Zhu Lingzhi, who was deeply shaken, and Yuan Mingluan and Jin Chen, who were trembling with fear, were stunned.

Isn't this something that person should say?

Shouldn't she impatiently whip up the snow with her sleeve and blow it all away?

"Give it to me!"

Xue Lan bent down and snatched Xiao Jincan from under Jin Chen's armpit, then disgustedly washed it with snow.

Jin Chen looked at her younger sister in Xue Lan's arms, tears welling up in her eyes, her lips trembling as she looked on the verge of crying.

As everyone wished, Lord Wolf slapped him back into his original form with his sleeve, and he rolled around several times on the snow.

The woman stroked the tiger cub's nape, her voice cold and ruthless:

"If you want your sister, trade your father for her."

Once the Wolf King has spoken, Jing Tong's Tiger Clan will sell her father to save her daughter.

After sending Jin Chen away, Xue Lan looked at Yuan Mingluan, who was kneeling.

"I have come to Flame Spirit City to ask Lord Yu for some Vermilion Bird Spirit Iron. Go and inform him."

These words were said politely, but to Yuan Mingluan, they sounded like demonic chants. They were roughly as follows:

"I'm here to mine. This time I'll destroy all the nests in your Feather Clan's sacred ground. You won't have anywhere to put your eggs anymore. I'll also pluck the tail feathers from all the little birds in your Crimson Phoenix Clan while I'm at it."

"No? If you can't handle it, then just wait for your entire clan to be wiped out!"

"Yes! We juniors will do it now..."

The old man stumbled to his feet, grabbed Zhu Lingzhi, and tried to run away, but Xue Lan stopped him.

"Wait." The woman reached out and grabbed Zhu Lingzhi's sleeve:

"Leave this for me."

Yuan Mingluan: She still wants hostages!

"My lord!" He had shown a rare display of strength since he appeared.

"This is my clan's princess, the next Feather Lord."

"Oh?"

Xue Lan tilted her head and glanced at Zhu Lingzhi, her almond-shaped eyes curving with a hint of cunning.

"A princess of the Phoenix Clan."

Yuan Mingluan nodded vigorously: "Yes, Princess."

Xue Lan smiled at the old man: "I can command the wolf lord, so why can't I let your princess keep me company?"

Yuan Mingluan froze: !!

"Of course! Of course!"

The old man screamed and pulled Zhu Lingzhi aside, shoving a handful of magical artifacts into her hands.

"I'm so sorry to have troubled you, little one!"

Zhu Lingzhi took the magical artifacts and looked at the old man with tears in his eyes.

"Uncle, you look rather aggrieved."

The stubborn chieftain of the Crimson Phoenix Clan wiped away his tears, then whispered something in Zhu Lingzhi's ear. Finally, reluctantly, he transformed into a bird and flew away.

Zhu Lingzhi watched him leave, put away all the magical artifacts, and only then did he have time to look at Xue Lan.

The area in front of the city lord's mansion was completely white, with hardly anyone around. Even the two guards at the gate had been sent inside by Zhu Lingzhi beforehand.

The woman was currently carrying the tiger cub on her shoulder, her body tilted to one side, a wide smile playing on her lips. She was talking to Xue Tong in a low, guttural voice.

Zhu Lingzhi took two steps forward and heard Xue Lan chirping crickets.

“I’m telling you, he was like this when he was a kid. If someone touched him, he would scream and run away, and he wouldn’t even leave his tail behind.”

Xue Tong felt there were some issues with her description, and the truth of the matter was definitely not like that.

So Xiaotong looked at the semi-transparent inner demon.

The inner demon glanced at her sideways and said coldly, "It was her original self who touched it."

Xue Tong didn't know what to say.

I initially thought it was a bird, but I was so afraid that the little bird wouldn't dare to get close to people.

I never expected that a wolf the size of a small mountain would slap me with its paws, grab me, and pull my tail bald.

Indeed, things should be viewed from the victim's perspective.

After Xue Lan finished playing with Yuan Mingluan's crickets, she looked up at Zhu Lingzhi and said in a sullen tone:

"How is it? Are you surprised?"

Zhu Lingzhi wanted to speak, but looking at Xue Lan's unchanging face, he couldn't say anything.

After racking her brains and thinking hard, the woman gritted her teeth and spoke:

"It's quite scary."

"This reaction of yours is unusual," Xue Lan said, puzzled. "Shouldn't you be asking me some questions?"

Zhu Lingzhi continued, following her words:

"what is the problem?"

Xue Lan clapped her hands:

"For example, who exactly is Xue Lan from the lower realm?"

"Then who exactly is Xue Lan from the lower realm?"

Xue Lan's gray-white eyes were clear: "It's me too."

"It's not possession, it's not an avatar, it's me, and I haven't even changed my name."

Zhu Lingzhi swayed slightly: "I can't believe it, we're still competing for the Ten Thousand Crafts Workshop."

"How could anyone possibly compete with you, senior?"

Am I that amazing in your eyes?

Xue Lan snapped her fingers, and time and space in Flame Spirit City froze for a moment. All the snowflakes began to fly upwards, and the temperature slowly rose.

The people watching the snow in the teahouse returned to their seats, and Mr. Qin opened the teapot, revealing a steaming pot of exquisite tea.

“Time and space…” Zhu Lingzhi murmured, knowing that the entire Flame Spirit City was undergoing a change she couldn’t comprehend. And the driving force behind it all was the Wolf Lord before her.

The Northern Region's River Wolf Lord possesses the laws of spacetime; at his peak, he could reverse the time of a region and interfere with the river of time.

Knowing something is one thing, seeing it with your own eyes is another.

Seeing it with his own eyes, and witnessing the surrounding spiritual energy flowing backward, with everything appearing as one, Zhu Lingzhi felt only... terror.

An incomprehensible and irresistible fear instantly overwhelmed her soul.

"Your great-uncle's side will probably need some time," Xue Lan said, smiling at her.

"I'll teach you something, since I owe you a favor."

"Human favors?" Zhu Lingzhi asked, somewhat puzzled.

Xue Lan turned around first and walked into the city lord's mansion, speaking as she went:

"Guess who it was that tried to steal the Golden Crow Essence from you back in Xie Cui City?"
