Bring a scumbag girl to bully me, and you are afraid of using modern weapons.

The Zhan Mansion is as large as the imperial palace, so it is impossible that there is only one warehouse like this. Zhan Zhang has so many wives and concubines, and the private warehouses of dozens of children combined must be no less than these.

Xie Jinglan looked at the boxes one by one and saw a pile of stones piled on one side.

Needless to say, these stones must have been bought by the Zhan family from the Cao family.

She glanced with her magical eyes and saw that there was indeed a spirit stone inside, but it was not as big as the one she got last time.

She took a few larger pieces and wanted to cut them out. She would practice them well tonight and perhaps she could advance.

When she cut out all the pieces, she couldn't help feeling disappointed.

Because the spiritual energy contained in these spirit stones is not as good as the one she had before.

"Little Jinzi." Xie Jinglan called out.

"What's wrong again?" Xiao Jinzi's voice came over.

"Help move all those stones here." Xie Jinglan said to it.

"Wait."

After a while, Xiao Jinzi brought all the stones to her, and Beitang Yuan and Zhu Yichen also came over.

Xie Jinglan pulled down her mask and said to the two, "You've come at the perfect time. This is the spirit stone I just cut. Take it later. Practice with it tonight, and perhaps you'll be able to advance."

"Lan'er, are you cutting stone?" Beitang Yuan looked at the cutting machine curiously, feeling that this girl could do anything. "You don't need to do this kind of rough work. Be careful not to hurt your hands."

"It's okay, I'm wearing steel wire gloves." Xie Jinglan raised her hand and let him see the cut-resistant steel wire gloves on her hand.

"Steel wire gloves?" Beitang Yuan was even more curious. "Lan'er, let me do this job!"

"No, doing this job is different from learning shooting. The requirements are a bit high. If you have never done it, don't do it. There are not many left anyway." Xie Jinglan did not agree to let him cut it.

He had never used any electrical appliances before. The electric cutter turned too fast. Even though he had gloves, there was no guarantee that he would not cut anywhere else.

She took another piece of raw stone, pressed the switch of the cutting machine, and the blade started to spin rapidly.

Beitang Yuan and Zhu Yichen stood aside, watching her cut the stone skillfully.

Xie Jinglan spent nearly an hour to cut all the raw stones. Although each piece contained spiritual stones of different sizes, the spiritual energy contained in them was not as great as the one she had before.

No wonder the little squirrel didn't suck up other spirit stones, but ran to the pile of waste to suck up that ugly stone.

The raw stone looked very ugly, and because of its hard texture, ordinary eyes could not see the crystal inside, so it was thrown into the waste.

"Okay, all the spirit stones are here. Let's divide them among the three of us and practice in here tonight." Xie Jinglan distributed the spirit stones to them.

However, Beitang Yuan shook his head and refused to take them. "Lan'er, you and Senior Brother Zhu can use them. These spirit stones are of little use to me."

Xie Jinglan just remembered that his strength had already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and these spirit stones were indeed of little use to him.

"Okay." She gave half of the spirit stones to Zhu Yichen.

That night, she and Zhu Yichen were both practicing in the space.

But she was disappointed. After practicing hard and concentrating for a long night, she showed no signs of advancement, so she had to end her practice.

She stood up, stretched her slightly stiff limbs, felt the spiritual power still flowing steadily in her body, and shook her head in disappointment. It seemed that she needed to practice more diligently.

She looked towards the place where Zhu Yichen was practicing and saw that he was still sitting cross-legged there, his whole body shrouded in white light.

It seems that those spirit stones are helpful to him, but it may not be that fast for him to break through.

She washed up and left the space.

They saw Beitang Yuan sitting in her room with some breakfast on the table, apparently waiting for them.

"I'm afraid Senior Brother Zhu won't be back so soon, so we won't wait for him." Xie Jinglan sat on the chair beside the table, looking at the exquisite breakfast, not feeling hungry at all.

In fact, with their level of strength, they won’t feel hungry even if they don’t eat for two or three days.

On this day, the little squirrel and the little bees did not come back, and the people in the Zhan family also seemed very quiet.

According to the news sent back by the little squirrel, the Zhan family is busy with the funeral, which will last for fifteen days. Dozens of obituaries have been sent to various places, and all the prominent figures in Mincheng have gone to pay their respects.

The mourning period was half a month? Dozens of obituaries were sent to various places?

When Xie Jinglan and Beitang Yuan heard these words, they always felt something was wrong.

The family that can make the Zhan family issue an obituary is definitely not an ordinary family. They include the royal family, various sects in the martial arts world, major clans, etc...

They issued dozens of obituaries, which means that within a few days, dozens of funeral processions will enter Mincheng?

"So these are the people Zhan Zhang is waiting for?" Xie Jinglan showed a mocking expression. "Zhan Zhang has gathered all his friends from the martial arts world. Is he planning to corner us in Mincheng?"

"In that case, we have to do something and go back to Linggun Mountain tonight." Beitang Yuan said.

Xie Jinglan thought about it and nodded, then asked someone to invite Xiao Huaiyu over. She told him that the Zhan family had issued dozens of obituaries, and told him that they had to leave tonight.

When Xiao Huaiyu heard that they were leaving, deep worry appeared in his eyes.

"Mr. Xiao, the Zhan family is looking for reinforcements everywhere, so we naturally have to look for help as well. I am a disciple of the Xuan Ji Sect's Zhongli Sect Master. We are going back this time to ask our master for help. We will be back in two days at most. As long as the Zhan family doesn't come to cause trouble first, you should not act rashly." Xie Jinglan instructed him.

Hearing about Xuanji Sect, the worry on Xiao Huaiyu's face immediately disappeared, "In that case, I'll have to trouble Mr. Xie and Miss Xie to go back."

"Don't worry! This time, our battle with the Zhan family will be the final decisive battle." Xie Jinglan sneered.

It would be better to let the Zhan family invite those people. She wanted to see who they were.

At night, Zhu Yichen was still practicing, and it seemed that he would have to make a breakthrough before he could come out.

As soon as it got dark that night, Xie Jinglan and Beitang Yuan left the guest room directly, flew onto the roof, and headed out of the city.

It was almost midnight when they returned to Linggun Mountain. After getting off the plane, the two went to look for Zhongli Xiao.

Halfway through the journey, Xie Jinglan moved the fourth elder out of the space.

His body has fully recovered and he no longer needs to stay in the space.

Zhongli Xiao sat in the main seat in the main hall. Several elders were there, and it seemed that they were waiting for them.

"Greetings, Master, and all the elders."

Xie Jinglan and Beitang Yuan came in and greeted them one by one.

Zhongli Xiao looked at the two of them and nodded slightly, "Get up!"

"Yes." Xie Jinglan stood up and saw that the Second Elder's eyes were always looking behind them. She thought he was looking for his disciples, so she said to him happily:

"Please rest assured, Second Elder. Senior Brother Zhu has also returned, but he is currently in seclusion practicing. It seems that he will be able to break through soon."
