"Sister Yanran?"
Qi Yan'er splashed some water, shaking Nalan Yanran's body.
"Hmm?"
Nalan Yanran frowned, slowly opening her eyes.
"Yan'er? How did I fall asleep?"
"This, what's going on?"
The moment she opened her eyes, Nalan Yanran realized that people were lying all over the place around her.
Qi Yan'er shrugged her shoulders.
"Sister Yanran, you were tricked by them. They are mercenaries."
"If it weren't for me, they would have carried you away by now!"
"What?"
Nalan Yanran was startled by the voice.
She hadn't even dreamed that her situation would be so dangerous.
Wait a minute!
Did Yan'er take them down?
How did she do that at her size?
Besides fear, Nalan Yanran was also filled with doubt.
She looked around:
"Where's that guy Mo Li?"
"Him..."
Qi Yan'er rolled her big eyes and pouted: "He saw that some of them were eight-star Dou Practitioners and ran off first!"
"Ran?"
Nalan Yanran's pretty face turned cold, and she said with disgust: "What a Mo Li!"
Seeing Nalan Yanran's angry look, Qi Yan'er quickly reminded her:
"Sister Yanran, don't think about it. Let's get out of here quickly! There should still be mercenaries nearby, and we'll be in trouble if they find us."
"Alright, let's go!"
Nalan Yanran nodded and quickly picked up Qi Yan'er, running towards the distance.
"Ah~ No! Ah~"
When they reached the roadside, Nalan Yanran's eyebrows suddenly furrowed: "Yan'er~ Did you hear any sounds coming from the forest?"
"No~"
Qi Yan'er's big, watery eyes were full of purity as she shook her head.
"Alright! Then it must have been a hallucination~"
Nalan Yanran didn't think further and vanished in an instant, still holding Qi Yan'er…
Only the cries, like something tearing apart, remained.
Time ticked by.\n\nSoon, Nalan Yanran and Qi Yan'er reached a safe area.\n\n"Sister Yanran, you can put me down now. They shouldn't catch up," Qi Yan'er said, glancing behind them.\n\n"Alright."\n\nNalan Yanran nodded. As a Three-Star Dou Practitioner, she was also somewhat tired from running for so long.\n\n"Sister Yanran, here."\n\nAs soon as she set Qi Yan'er down, Nalan Yanran saw her pull out a water bag from somewhere.
Nalan Yanran had complete trust in Qi Yan'er.
Moreover, if it weren't for her previously, she couldn't imagine what would have happened to her.
"Sister Yan'er, thank you."
Nalan Yanran took the water bag and drank a large mouthful, her delicate lips still glistening with water.
"Yan'er, tell me, how did you take down those mercenaries?"
"As you just said, there was an eight-star Dou Practitioner among them!"
Hearing Nalan Yanran's surprised words.
Qi Yan'er proudly patted her small wooden chest:
"I told you already!"
"My daddy gave me this Treasures Chest, and it has all sorts of amazing things inside. Taking care of those jerks is a piece of cake!"
It has all sorts of amazing things?
Is this true?
They say children speak without reservations.
But also, children don't lie!
A little girl like her can take down an eight-star Dou Practitioner and a group of burly men, so there's only one explanation!
That means...
Was what she said before about her father being a Dou God true?
Thinking of this.
Nalan Yanran's pretty face suddenly changed. Her father, even if he wasn't the legendary Dou God, was certainly a hidden powerhouse!
While Nalan Yanran was lost in thought, Qi Yan'er tilted her head and asked curiously:
"Sister Yanran, I heard Mo Li say just now that you went to Wutan City to break off a marriage?"
"Ah?"
Qi Yan'er's words startled Nalan Yanran, and she hated Mo Li even more in her heart.
What a trash, why does he say everything?
What exactly did he do while I was unconscious!
"Sister Yan'er, he's right, I did go to Wutan City to break off a marriage."
Nalan Yanran didn't hide anything, her expression darkening as she responded:
"When I was born, my elders arranged a marriage for me. But I've never even met the person I'm betrothed to."
"I've only heard that he's the third young master of the Xiao Clan in Wutan City. He used to be a talented genius, but now… he's just a good-for-nothing with the strength of a three-star Dou Disciple."
"Three-star Dou Disciple!"
Qi Yan'er opened her small mouth in surprise:
"Isn't that even weaker than me?"
"Ah?"
This time, it was Qi Yan'er's turn to be shocked:
"Yan'er, then you…"
Even though Nalan Yanran was asking a question, her curiosity had already driven her to assess Qi Yan'er's strength.
But her attempt to probe didn't go as planned.
Upon a closer look, she discovered that the little girl before her was an enigma!
There was a haze around her.
It was impossible to see through!
She, a three-star Dou Practitioner, couldn't even discern the strength of a little girl!
Could it be that…
"Yan'er, you, you're not stronger than me, are you?"
"How could that be?"
Qi Yan'er's face was filled with sadness: "I only have five-stage Dou Disciple."
"Only five levels of Dou Disciple?"
Nalan Yanran's lips twitched uncontrollably.
She was shocked, truly shocked!
She knew that the only genius she'd known in all these years with talent surpassing her own was the one and only Xiao Yan, back when his talent hadn't vanished.
And now, this little girl in front of her… was also one!
"That's right."
Listening to Nalan Yanran, Qi Yan'er felt even more sorrowful: "I usually buy wine, buy vegetables, and cook for my father, so I haven't really cultivated much."
"Uh…"
Upon hearing this, Nalan Yanran felt her head buzzing.
"You didn't train much, and you reached Dou Disciple level five at seven years old?"
"How can anyone else even live!"
Seeing Qi Yan'er's sorrowful expression, Nalan Yanran gave a wry smile to "comfort" her: "Yan'er, you misunderstood what I meant."
"I meant that at your age, having this kind of strength means your talent isn't just strong, it's extraordinarily strong!"
"Extraordinarily strong?"
Qi Yan'er was a little incredulous, but then she became dejected again: "Sister Yanran, don't joke around. My father said that when he was seven, he was already a Dou Ancestor!"
"Crack~"
Nalan Yanran's mouth opened, and her shocked jaw nearly dropped.
"Listen to this, is this even something a person would say?"
"Seven-year-old Dou Ancestor!"
Just how terrifying a monster is her father, actually?
Before, she absolutely wouldn't have believed it.
But what had just happened made her firmly believe it.
A little girl of only seven years old could not only see through the mercenary's disguise as tea house staff with bad intentions, but also take them down!
The existence that could raise a girl like her...
How could it be a guy who only knew how to deceive children?
No way!
Nalan Yanran stared at the "little monster" in front of her, and a deep sense of powerlessness welled up in her heart.
Can't keep going on like this with her.
Otherwise, she'll most likely sell me out, and I'll still be counting her money! Thinking of this.
The blue light of the Storage Ring on Nalan Yanran's finger flashed, and a signal arrow appeared in her palm.
"Whoosh!"
Qi Yan'er looked up, puzzled, and then stared at Nalan Yanran:
"Sister Yanran, what are you doing?"
Nalan Yanran: (⊙o⊙)…
I can't just say I'm afraid of you and am calling for backup! "Um… I…"
