Lan Yan saw that the system did not respond and called out again, "System, why aren't you responding? Is there another bug?" She really couldn't believe this system.
System: "..." Host, can't you think a little better of me! "Host, I can't see it here yet, but I guess the progress is proceeding in an orderly manner. You'll be able to see it in a few days."
He couldn't tell the host the truth, otherwise this secret mission would not be able to continue. He did not expect the fragments of the big boss to interfere so much; if this continues, this world will have problems.
Lan Yan was even more certain that this system was unreliable. "Okay, I don't care about that. I ask you, now I've brought Jun Yelan to the demon realm and given him back his freedom, but I always feel like he looks very serious."
System: Host, hasn't he always been serious! "Host, there may be some problem you haven't discovered yet. Observe more, and only when you have completely healed Jun Yelan's heart problem can you withdraw from this world."
Lan Yan felt the system was talking nonsense, she had always been doing this before. "Yes, you can go."
The system was speechless again, and it went offline to repair the interface.
Lan Yan opened her eyes and looked at Jun Yelan in the corner. She could still hear his even breathing, so he seemed to be fast asleep. The corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up. She pulled the quilt on her chest and closed her eyes to sleep.
After she fell asleep, the breathing in the corner became shallower.
At this time, in the Demon King's Palace, the Demon King looked at the demonic beasts from the demon market, his eyes burning with intense anger. "This Jun Yelan is too much, completely disregarding me, the Demon King."
The demonic beasts cried, "Jun Yelan openly protects people from the immortal cultivation world and even said he has nothing to do with our demon realm. Demon King, you must punish Jun Yelan!"
They never liked Jun Yelan, but they had endured it because of his power.
The Demon King clenched his fists even tighter, looking at his right arm hanging by his side. He wished he could retaliate, but he had been severely injured by Jun Yelan before and had not yet recovered.
He couldn't make a move for the time being, otherwise he really couldn't keep this position.
The demonic beasts below muttered, "Before, Jun Yelan was captured by the immortal cultivation world, and I thought he wouldn't come back. Who knew that he would not only come back but also bring a woman from the immortal cultivation world!"
"He is going to put our demon realm in a dangerous place!"
Hearing this, the Demon King suddenly remembered the immortal cultivation world, and they also hated Jun Yelan! Jun Yelan had escaped from the immortal cultivation world, and the woman named Lan Yan was also a traitor to the immortal cultivation world!
He hooked his lips, a hint of calculation flashed in his eyes, and he waved his hand, "You all go down first, I will deal with Jun Yelan properly."
Thus, the demonic beasts left triumphantly.
The Demon King then summoned his servant, "Go to Spirit Mountain and deliver a letter. Throw it directly at the door and say it's for the Sect Leader of Spirit Mountain. He will read it." After speaking, he laughed wildly.
The servant dared not delay and quickly went to deliver the letter.
Meanwhile, in the immortal cultivation world's Spirit Mountain, it was the day the Sect Leader emerged from seclusion. He had been injured by Jun Yelan and had been recuperating in seclusion for a month, finally able to come out.
He stood at the palace he emerged from and shouted fiercely, "Jun Yelan, Lan Yan, I will not let you go!" He walked towards Fengqing Zhenren's palace, and as soon as he entered, he became angry, "Junior Brother, you have been slacking off these days!"
Fengqing Zhenren was still sitting on the chair with a serene expression and said calmly, "Senior Brother, you are still too impatient. Now that Jun Yelan has escaped, I cannot refine the medicine. Why not just let it go?"
"Impossible!" The Sect Leader smashed the chair next to Fengqing Zhenren and said angrily, "I told you, I need to use Jun Yelan for refining medicine. You raised such a good disciple, and he actually took that demonic beast away."
He snorted coldly, "You say these things now, are you trying to make excuses for her? Let me tell you, she is now a traitor to our Spirit Mountain, and when I catch Jun Yelan, she won't escape either."
Fengqing Zhenren's eyes darkened, "Senior Brother, what do you want to do?"
The Sect Leader did not answer, turned and walked towards the door. He would unite with the various immortal cultivation sects again, use the formation again, and this time he would tear Jun Yelan to shreds.
Seeing the Sect Leader's anger, Fengqing Zhenren's heart skipped a beat. Lan Yan would be in trouble! "Senior Brother, have you forgotten what happened to our junior brother Qingming! Do you want to repeat the same mistake!"
"Don't mention that name!" The Sect Leader's anger intensified, and he flicked his sleeve and left.
Fengqing Zhenren behind him sighed. He remembered how close the three of them were as brothers back then, until Qingming encountered that demonic beast, and from then on, all three of them changed.
He had witnessed Qingming's death with his own eyes back then, and he could not let Lan Yan suffer the same fate. He shouted, "Lin Qian, go use a magical artifact to send a message to your senior sister and let her know about this. Tell her that if she can kill Jun Yelan, I, her master, will protect her."
Lin Qian responded with a low-spirited expression, "Yes, Master." He felt that his senior sister had changed after meeting that Jun Yelan. He really couldn't understand Lan Yan, so he repeated the last sentence three times and sent it to Lan Yan.
The magical artifact was a small bell. It left the immortal cultivation world and flew towards the cave entrance in the demon realm.
Lan Yan was making buns, and Jun Yelan beside her was helping to start the fire. Just as she was about to put the buns into the steamer, she heard a familiar sound, turned her head, and saw a small bell, frowning.
This was the means of communication from Spirit Mountain. It seemed something had happened!
She looked at Jun Yelan, who was looking down at the fire, and smiled, "Jun Yelan, I just remembered I have something to get, I'll go into the cave. You continue watching the fire." With that, she put away the small bell and walked into the cave.
Jun Yelan saw that Lan Yan's expression was strange, and his eyes deepened. He followed her in.
Lan Yan then activated the small bell, and the bell released those words, "The immortal cultivation sects want to encircle and suppress that demonic beast, return quickly." As expected, something had happened! Her brows furrowed tightly. Thinking of how miserable Jun Yelan looked when he was captured last time, it would be even worse this time.
Not only could she not save Jun Yelan, but according to the Sect Leader's temperament, Jun Yelan would likely lose his consciousness as soon as he was caught. She couldn't let such a thing happen. She turned her head and saw Jun Yelan at the entrance, trembling all over.
Jun Yelan walked over, reached out, and gently hugged Lan Yan, wanting to soothe her worries. "Lan Yan, I won't be easily captured again, you don't have to worry."
"But this time, the Sect Leader has gone to great lengths, and he won't rest until he catches you." Lan Yan said with distress, "Isn't there a way to deal with that formation!" Her small face was creased with worry. Recalling the formation books she had read before, all formations could be broken.
She quickly recalled, "That's right, the demon realm's most powerful magical artifact is in the abyss, and it can break formations." As long as the formation was broken, Jun Yelan would no longer need to fear the immortal cultivation world.
Jun Yelan's eyes deepened, "The abyss is at the junction of the two realms, and it is rumored that the artifact was left from ancient times. If we go, it will be full of danger." He had returned from there and knew how terrifying it was, and he didn't want Lan Yan to go with him.
He had just heard the last sentence, that if Lan Yan killed him, Lan Yan could go back. But he had started to have selfish desires, wanting to live a little longer with Lan Yan.
Lan Yan smiled, "This proves the power of the artifact even more. Jun Yelan, I promised you, I will accompany you wherever you go." She revealed the red string on her wrist and placed it next to Jun Yelan's, a smile appearing on her face.
Thus, Jun Yelan nodded, held Lan Yan tighter, and swore to protect her well this time.
