Little An Nuan

Nan Shan took a deep breath.

This time, he heard it clearly.

Someone was indeed crying.

The sound was muffled and weak, as if there was a layer of medium between them.

Coming from underground?

Could it really be a ghost?

Nan Shan smacked his forehead.

“Why are you scaring yourself?

“These evil cultivators kidnapped children into the temple. They might be the lucky survivors.

“I can’t just leave them to die. I have to find a way to find them.”

He cleared his thoughts and started to listen carefully.

After confirming the general direction, Nan Shan waited for a while, and the demon swallowing beast finally sucked all the blood dry.

However, the sword was still buzzing for some reason.

Nan Shan did not care too much. He directly put the devouring evil spirit back into its sheath and strode toward the depths of the back mountain.

Soon, they arrived at a place called the Arhat meditation room.

The door was locked, and there was a faint smell of blood coming from inside.

Nan Shan frowned slightly and took out the keys from the storage bag he had just obtained. He tried them one by one and soon opened the door.

What came into view was a long corridor that led to the underground.

Walking down the steps, the corridor grew deeper.

There were meditation rooms of the same size on the left and right.

When he pushed the door open, he saw that the inner walls were filled with Buddha statues. There was an old futon on the ground, and a layer of weeds was at the bottom. Other than that, there was nothing else.

The crying continued, drifting from the deepest part.

Nan Shan was not in a hurry to walk over in one breath.

Instead, he opened the meditation rooms one by one.

Finally, he saw a figure sitting with his back to the door in the 42nd room.

It was the knife-scarred man.

Nan Shan went forward to check.

He was already dead. All the blood in his body had been drawn out, and his skin had shriveled.

He walked to the next meditation room. There was another corpse inside, one of the bandits who had robbed him.

He opened 18 doors in a row, and it was the same for all of them.

“I didn’t expect that no matter which path you chose, you would still die.”

Nan Shan shook his head. Was this considered difficult to go against heaven’s will?

He didnot care so much and continued to walk deeper.

There was no one in the meditation room that was opened.

However, there was no dust on the futon. It seemed that someone had stayed there not long ago.

The crying gradually came to an end of the passage, and Nan Shan stood in front of the door of the last meditation room.

This was the 500th room.

He didnot expect that the Heqing temple could imprison so many people by the evil cultivators.

He didnot expect that only one person was left alive.

Nan Shan sighed and pushed open the door.

There was a weak little girl inside. Her clothes were rough and her body was covered in mud.

The most eye-catching thing was the dazzling orange light above her head.

It was actually another potential investor!

It was still a three-star!

The kind with a hundred times interest!

Nan Shan was stunned.

Since when were investors so easy to get?

In the blink of an eye, the girl’s character panel appeared before his eyes.

[An Nuan]

[Age: 12]

[Favorability: 0]

[Investment potential star: 3]

[Current Status: Available for investment]

[Return on investment: 100 times]

[Character personality: Independent]

[Character ability: early intelligence, understanding the ways of the world earlier than peers. If used in cultivation, it may have unexpected gains.]

When she saw someone appear, she was like a frightened deer. She quickly retreated two steps, hugged her legs, and curled up in a corner, looking at Nan Shan with panic and fear in her eyes.

“Little girl, don’t be afraid. I’m here to save you. The bad guys have already been beaten away.”

Nan Shan was afraid that she would misunderstand and hurriedly explained.

The girl did not say a word and maintained her original posture. Even the look in her eyes did not change.

“I’m not lying to you,” Nan Shan said patiently. “I’m a cultivator from the Reliance Sect… Do you know about cultivators? It’s the kind that can fly in the sky.”

“Really?”

The girl sneaked a glance at Nan Shan and confirmed that he was not one of the bad guys who had come over often before. She could not help but believe him a little.

Nan Shan’s expression was serious as he said in all seriousness, “I’ll be a dog if I lie to you!”

“Did you kill them?” The girl’s words were shocking.

Nan Shan couldnot help but raise his eyebrows. This little girl was indeed intelligent. She could even guess this.

However, when facing a child of this age, he still had to pay attention to his words. Otherwise, in the long run, it would easily affect his mind.

After some thought, he said, “I’ve turned them into wooden clubs. They won’t be able to harm anyone for the rest of their lives.”

The girl was a little confused.

Nan Shan placed the evil-swallowing beast on the grass and circulated his spiritual energy, letting it release a little cooling effect.

In an instant, the air was cold.

The grass under the blade of the sword had turned into popsicles.

Nan Shan picked one up and pouted. “Well, it’s almost like this. After the brain is frozen, it can’t move. Then, isn’t it no better than a wooden club?”

“Amazing!”

The girl’s eyes widened, and there was a strange light in her eyes, as if her attention was completely attracted by the spell that Nan Shan had cast.

Her favorability was rising.

It didnot take long for him to break through the 30-point barrier.

It reached the friendly line!

Nan Shan’s heart moved.

“Little girl, what’s your name?”

The girl answered seriously, ” I’m An Nuan.”

“Are you interested in learning immortal spells from big brother?”

Nan Shan patted her little head and smiled. “If you’re willing, I can bring you up the mountain to cultivate.”

‘The immortal touched my head, tied my hair, and received longevity!’

An Nuan felt a cool air flowing down from her head to her limbs.

His hands and feet, which had been slightly injured, had miraculously recovered!

She blinked her eyes curiously.

Was this a celestial technique?

It was so magical.

Could she really learn it?

Looking at Nan Shan’s serious expression, An Nuan felt that this big brother in front of her was not lying.

As long as she nodded.

However…

“Big brother.” An Nuan seemed to be struggling, and she asked in a low voice, “If I go up the mountain with you, will I bring you any trouble?”

“Of course you won’t.”

“Having more people is just an extra pair of chopsticks,” Nan Shan said with a smile.

“Nuan Nuan wants to hear the truth.”

An Nuan pulled a long face.

The smile on Nan Shan’s face gradually faded and was replaced by a little embarrassment.

In fact, he didnot know what kind of trouble it would be.

The sect would not normally allow disciples to take in disciples privately, let alone an in-name disciple like him.

However, there was no absolute. If he had not done it, how would he know what would happen?

After hesitating for a while, he could only say one sentence.

“There is… There might be a little, but it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

To his surprise, An Nuan shook her head immediately.

“Then I’m not going.”

“You don’t want to cultivate?” Nan Shan was a little surprised. “You could fly.”

“I don’t want to.”

An Nuan’s eyes were filled with determination. “Nuan Nuan will definitely become a burden to big brother if she goes up the mountain. I don’t want to be a burden, and I don’t want big brother to be laughed at.”

Nan Shan opened his mouth. He did not expect this little girl to actually say such a thing.

After hesitating for a while, he couldnot say the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Forget it.

An Nuan’s personality was like that. Basically, she wouldnot change her mind once she had decided on something. There was no need for him to go against her wishes.

Cultivation was also about following one’s heart and not forcing it.

Besides, who said that one could not cultivate at the foot of the mountain?

Nan Shan smiled. He had plenty of ways to invest!

He took out the Pisces Jade Pendant he had just obtained and handed it to An Nuan.

“It’s fine. You can cultivate outside then.”

“This jade pendant has the effect of protecting its owner. It can ensure that you are not disturbed by ordinary people and can cultivate in peace. There is a cultivation technique in it. If you have the root of wisdom, you will naturally see it.

“Since you’ve just started cultivating, you should learn the most basic things first.

“The master leads the way, but cultivation is up to the individual.

“Whether or not you can cross this first hurdle, it’s up to you.”

After Nan Shan finished speaking, he smiled warmly. “Let’s go, I’ll send you home first.”

“I’m going home…”

An Nuan looked at the jade pendant in her hand. She couldnot help but cry. “Big brother…

“What?”
