Leng Yanran left?
Didn’t wait for him, and went straight back to the Imperial Capital?
Could something have happened?

Seeing Xu Nian’s uncertain expression, Lin Ruolan knew what Xu Nian was thinking.
With a seductive smile, she said, "You probably don’t know, but your lover Leng Yanran actually already has a marriage arrangement with the Imperial Crown Prince. In three months, their wedding will take place, and the entire empire will celebrate together."
"Imperial Crown Prince?"
Xu Nian was startled.
He furrowed his brows instantly.
He had already guessed that Leng Yanran had a marriage arrangement.
But he had never imagined it would be with the Crown Prince of the Tianhen Empire.
Although he and Leng Yanran had not defined their relationship,
seeing Leng Yanran marry the Imperial Crown Prince was something he absolutely could not accept.
He knew the relationship between him and Leng Yanran had always been unclear.
Now was the time to resolve it.
At this moment, he made up his mind that he must go to the Imperial Capital to ask Leng Yanran face to face.
Did she truly want to marry this Imperial Prince?
If it was truly her own wish, he would only silently bless her in his heart.
But if she were being forced,
even if it meant causing a great disturbance in the Imperial Capital, he would never let Leng Yanran marry the Imperial Crown Prince.
This action would not only settle his own feelings,
but also fulfill the promise of the two-year agreement.
Fortunately, there were still three months.
As long as he got to the Imperial Capital within three months, everything could still be amended.
"Thank you for telling me all this. If there’s nothing else, please leave, Senior Sister," Xu Nian said, having made up his mind, as he looked up at Lin Ruolan.
Though his words were grateful, his tone was unapologetically cold.
He knew that Lin Ruolan had ulterior motives for telling him this.
"How heartless, coming here with good intentions to tell you this news, and you can’t even show a little kindness. I really don’t see what’s so good about Leng Yanran, how am I any worse than her in terms of body or looks! What she knows, I also know; what she doesn’t, I also know. Why are you so cold to her!" Lin Ruolan pouted and complained with a face full of resentment.
Xu Nian was speechless.
If one did not know Lin Ruolan’s true nature,
they might actually be deceived by her seemingly meek appearance.
If one really believed her words, they would end up swallowed whole without even bones left.
"Since you’re not welcoming, I’ll leave then," Lin Ruolan said resentfully, giving Xu Nian a look, then stamped her foot and turned into a streak of light that vanished on the spot.
Xu Nian watched this scene, yet was filled with doubts.
Did Lin Ruolan really leave just like that?
Did she come here just to tell him the news of Leng Yanran’s departure?
The more Xu Nian thought, the more he felt something was off.
Lin Ruolan’s departure was indeed too strange.
Bull Demon King, standing nearby, watched Lin Ruolan’s disappearing direction, filled with regret.
...
On a mountain peak outside Bull Head Mountain,
Lin Ruolan’s figure appeared as a streak of light.
And on that mountaintop, a Black Robed Man was waiting.
The face of this Black Robed Man was unclear, under the black hat was pitch black, nothing visible.
"Hall Master, why did you give up?" a deep voice came from beneath the black robe.
The Black Robed Man was clearly puzzled.
The Hall Master had already decided to make a move, so why suddenly retreat?
Lin Ruolan did not look at the Black Robed Man, but instead gazed towards Bull Head Mountain, her face revealing a seductive smile.
"Not urgent, I just thought of a good idea, perhaps in three months, he might bring us an unexpected surprise, by then the Imperial Capital will definitely be bustling," Lin Ruolan said with a smile.
She had indeed planned to take action and completely deal with Xu Nian.
But when she saw the corpses all over the ground, she suddenly held back.
The Body Saint’s subordinate had died so miserably, clearly crushed to death by overwhelming power.
To truly take action against Xu Nian, there was no guarantee of complete control.
Thus, she decided to hold back and told Xu Nian about Leng Yanran’s departure, letting him stir up trouble in the Imperial Capital.
"But what about the Token and the dragon vein?" the Black Robed Man asked.
"There’s no rush, after all, these will eventually be ours, but during this period, you must follow this Xu Nian closely, watch every move he makes. I need to recover my strength as soon as possible, otherwise even if we obtain the dragon vein and the Token, it would be of no use," Lin Ruolan suddenly spoke with a serious tone.
"Yes, Hall Master!" the Black Robed Man replied.
His tone was somewhat excited.
If the Hall Master could regain her peak strength from those years, their Desolate Hall would truly not fear the Tianhen Empire.
They would no longer need to operate in the shadows.
By then, the entire Tianhen Empire might be theirs.
"Alright, I’ll take my leave now, keep a close eye on them for me," Lin Ruolan instructed, then her figure once again disappeared into the horizon.
The Black Robed Man walked to the edge of the cliff, looking in the direction of Bull Head Mountain, scoffing with disdain, "What so-called genius, he’s just a pawn under our Desolate Hall, the moment the Hall Master regains her strength, it will be your death."
After finishing his words, the Black Robed Man’s figure directly vanished into thin air, hiding in the darkness.
As time passed, three days went by.
During these three days, Xu Nian had been healing.
After three days of recuperation, not only had his injuries healed,
But his Spiritual Cultivation had even unexpectedly broken through to the Eight-star War King Realm. Experience tales at Freewebnovel
For Xu Nian, this was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise.
Though he couldn’t break through to the Battle Saint Level, any improvement in strength was a good thing.
In addition to the breakthrough in cultivation,
Xu Nian had been pondering the sword strike he used to kill Yuan Feng.
He wanted to see if he could recall the inspiration from that moment.
However, after three days, not only had he made no progress,
But he had completely forgotten the feeling he had at that time.
This left Xu Nian feeling helpless.
It seemed touching the legendary Profound Argumentation was not an easy task.
The inspiration he had had before was fleeting.
Having failed to grasp it, he could only start from scratch.
"Brother Xu, you’re awake, come on, I’ll take you to a place," Bull Demon King said as soon as he saw Xu Nian open his eyes.
"Where to?" Xu Nian asked curiously.
"You’ll know once we get there," Bull Demon King said with a smile.
After speaking, he headed towards the interior of Bull Head Mountain.
Although Xu Nian was curious, he still followed.
When Bull Demon King reached a certain cliff face, his figure actually passed through it.
Xu Nian was stunned; the cliff was actually an illusion.
Was there a hidden realm inside?
Xu Nian immediately followed.
Indeed, as he passed through the cliff, he came directly into a huge cavern.
It turned out that there was a cave inside.
The entrance was enchanted with an Illusion Array, and even Spiritual Sense Power could not detect it.
However, the cave was quite simple inside.
Other than a bell floating in the air,
There were just some simple stone tables and stone beds.
The only peculiar thing was a huge painting on the wall on the west side of the cavern.
