Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

"Senior Ming, Qingqing,"

As soon as they entered the house, the door suddenly closed, and inside, a young man was smiling at them.

"Mr. Li!"

"Brother Li!"

Both of them were overjoyed!

"Brother Li, you're finally back!"

Qingqing happily stepped forward and hurriedly poured water for Li Lan.

Ming Zilou was also extremely excited and asked, "How did it go? Did you get the item?"

Li Lan nodded.

Ming Zilou was overjoyed and extremely gratified, saying, "Good, good, good, I knew it, you are a lucky person... By the way, where is the Great Sage Luo Tian?"

Li Lan said, "Don't worry, senior. Perhaps one day you will see him again."

It's not appropriate to say more, but these words have already reassured Ming Zilou.

"That's great... There's still hope for Mingting to recover, there's hope for recovery!"

Tears streamed down his face as he said, “One day, the remains of the Venerable One and all the saints will no longer have to be buried in the wilderness, but can be honored and worshipped by people all over the world!”

This is his greatest wish!

Li Lan felt a pang of sadness in her heart and said, "By the way, senior, I have already spoken with Mr. Zhu and we need you to stay here for a while longer."

"After I've taken care of things, I'll come back to pick you up. Then you won't have to suffer in anonymity anymore."

Ming Zilou smiled through his tears: "Young Master, we've been on the run for so many years, never having a single day of peace. During this time here, thanks to Mr. Zhu's care, we've actually felt the most at ease. You just go about your business and don't need to worry about us!"

Upon learning that the Great Sage Luo Tian was still alive and that Li Lan had already obtained the True Dragon Scale, he truly had no regrets. Even if he were to die now, he would have no fear.

"Qingqing, come here."

Li Lan spoke up, saying, "You are a descendant of the Mingzun, so his teachings should naturally be inherited by you!"

"You shall begin your cultivation today!"

He passed on the three great arts of the Mingzun—the Heaven-Splitting Technique, the Earth-Establishing Technique, and the Sun, Moon, and Stars Technique—to Qingqing, and also left her many spirit stones.

"Thank you so much, Brother Li!"

Qingqing is extremely grateful!

……

Not long after, Li Lan left Zuizhou.

He flew for a while, bypassing the major cities he had passed through before, before finding an unfamiliar place and taking a teleportation array to Tianzhen Prefecture.

After all, the name "Tu Tianlong" has now resounded throughout the Northern Frontier, and too many people with ulterior motives are secretly watching him. He is unwilling to take any risk of exposing himself.

……

Not long after, Li Lan finally arrived at the Land of a Thousand Rivers.

The land of a thousand rivers has been completely changed!

Originally a desolate wasteland, even after being developed by the Yunbei Sect and Qinghe Sect, it only took shape. But now it is a magnificent building complex, with one Taoist palace after another built, connected to the earth's energy, each protected by a magic array. In addition, spiritual fields and secluded cultivation areas have also been planned.

It can be said that the Li family truly built this place as a secret base.

"Once the method of drawing water by the Teng Snake is successful, and the source energy and earth energy of the Wanyuan Mountain Range are brought in, this place will truly become a treasure land for cultivation..."

Li Lan was quite looking forward to it!

He observed in secret that the Yuan clan people were now driven by the Li family like slaves and were not living well. However, as long as their lives were not in danger, Li Lan would not interfere.

After all, from a certain perspective, the Li family's current construction... will ultimately fall into the hands of the Yuan clan!

The Li family provided so many resources, and the Yuan clan only contributed some manual labor... it's only fair.

Of course, the Yuan Clan was able to swallow their anger for two reasons: firstly, thanks to the suppression by Liu Ziwen, Zuo An, and others, which prevented them from losing hope; and secondly, thanks to the mediation of Li Lan's puppet Xu Yan and others, which gave the Yuan Clan room to survive.

Li Lan quietly sneaked into the vicinity of Yuanshan.

"Why did you bring back a baby dragon?"

As soon as we arrived, Cat Sister's voice rang out.

A grand road, reflecting both reality and illusion, appeared before Li Lan. He stepped onto it, and in the next moment, he had already entered the heart of the mountain.

As Li Lan passed through the mountain's interior, he saw that the area had also been excavated by the Li clan. Many people were setting up array materials, including many immortal experts. However, Li Lan simply swept past them without anyone noticing his presence!
