Lady Lin's First-ever Journey to Immortality

Chapter 267 If It Steals The Light Away

When the sky becomes dark, people on the scene start to panic. Huaxia cultivators are startled after the glowing fireball burning arrow suddenly loses its glow and falls on the ground before hitting its target.

In the darkness, Crystal and Riddick make their final attack and people hear the scream of Huaxia cultivators.

During the chaos, some of them think of the fireball spell and they cast the spell in a hurry. The fireball spell doesn’t consume too much Reiki. However, the fireball instantly dies out gradually and goes out.

Can’t fire exist in this place? Huaxia cultivators always think that the spells of five elements are powerful and they never imagine that things like this could happen. What should they do?

Not everybody has clear eyes as Lin Luoran does so they can’t see things in the darkness. Huaxia cultivators breath heavily and stay next to each other in order to reduce casualties.

When people are panicking, a beam of light shines from a direction and lights the entire yard up. People look that way and see Lin Luoran holding a strange flower in her hand. The flower glows stably. There comes hope. Many cultivators in the yard can’t forget the scene of Master Lin holding a large glowing flower. The light shines on her side face, and her calmness and composure comfort their heart.

Lin Luoran always puts interesting and valuable things in her space. She never expects that the luminous flower she picked in the Kalahari Desert can be useful in this situation.

Once there is light, Huaxia cultivators begin to try and tear apart the “black cloth” over their heads. They make various attacks but nothing seems to be able to hurt it.

Lin Luoran stops attacking after trying to break the black cloth with her sword once. She doesn’t want to waste her Wakan. Thus, she focuses on stabilizing the emotions of Huaxia cultivators.

She remembers that there are some luminous pearls left in her space. Forget it. She already has the flower and she should keep a low key.

Huaxia cultivators gather to Lin’s side. In fact, after the panic is gone, they also remember that though fire can’t live in this place right now, the glow of their magic weapons infused with Reiki will be not less shiny that fire.

Crystal and Riddick, as well as the bat monster, are gone when more glows start to shine.

Huaxia cultivators all take out their magic weapons and try to light the yard up. Lin Luoran thinks for a while and takes out more luminous flowers from her space and distributes them.

Lin doesn’t want the cultivators to waste their Reiki.

“Master Lin, what should we do…?” All the vampires in the yard are nowhere to be found, including the dead ones. Some injured Huaxia cultivators are moaning painfully in the darkness.

Lin Luoran thinks and answers, “Save our people.”

Lin Luoran walks to the most seriously injured cultivator with a luminous flower. The cultivator in the medium level of Training Qi is almost sucked dry by Riddick.

People gather the injured together and let Lin Luoran check on them. Cultivators with luminous flowers stand at the periphery as safeguards.

Ordinary human beings will suffer from shock and coma when they lose too much blood. Fortunately, cultivators are stronger physically and their hemopoietic ability is better. In a daze, the injured cultivator feels that people are walking around him and a comforting voice says to him, “You’ve lost too much blood, but everything else about you is fine. Take some rest.”

A pair of hands cover his neck and clear Wakan is infused in him. The burning pain at his wound is soon gone and he feels sleepy. The cultivator falls asleep in peace.

The crowd watches Lin Luoran check on the injured and stands up after melting a bolus at his wound.

“Master, how is brother Mu?” A young cultivator asks anxiously.

Mu? Mu is not a common last name. Lin Luoran looks at this young cultivator. Wen Guanjing knows what this is about and he explains to Lin, “This is the sixth children of the Mu family. Mu Tiannan’s cousin. He insisted to come here with me. Thank God he is ok, or Master Mu will be so angry at me.”

Mu Tiannan’s cousin? This young cultivator does look like Mu Tiannan. Then Lin Luoran remembers that since she was taken to the blood dungeon, she hasn’t seen Mu Tiannan for many years. Lin assumes that Mu must have been married and he might already have children. In this situation, Lin Luoran doesn’t have the time to think deeper about this. She goes to check on the other injured cultivators. Injuries on the outside are easy to fix, but the wounds on the inside are tricky. One of the young cultivators was attacked surprisingly and his left hand was cut off. Lin Luoran feels bad. The young cultivator’s face is pale because of the extreme pain and he still comforts Lin by claiming to be ok. However, Lin Luoran knows that it is more than possible that the young boy’s hand can’t be fixed.

Though he doesn’t lose his right hand, which he uses to cast spells, losing a hand means so much trouble. Lin Luoran puts his broken hand back on and stops the bleeding. Then she remains silent.

An, who hasn’t said anything yet, reminds Lin with a whisper, “Maybe there is a way to fix his hand… The dragon…” The yard is crowded and An can’t say things so clearly when this is about the Dragon Palace.

Is An talking about the Dragon Marrow? Lin Luoran understands An’s meaning and nods to him in reply. She wants to talk about this later.

An went to the Dragon Palace only to get the Dragon Marrow. As such a magical restorative, the Dragon Marrow must be for Xin Yuanping because Huizhu doesn’t really need it… Maybe to cure her broken hand?

This is Lin Luoran’s guess. She doesn’t even know the right way to use the Dragon Marrow. At this moment, she reminds of what is written in the bamboo sheets from the Han tomb. According to the bamboo sheets, the treasures in the Dragon Palace include an elixir that can repair a broken hand except for the spirited wood which “nourishes souls”. Lin Luoran has been raising funds to clean the Dongting Lake. She looks forward to whatever she will find later in the Dragon Palace. It will be perfect if she can find the elixir and cure the young cultivator’s hand. If not, she will figure out another way.

Lin Luoran tries to comfort the young cultivator and she doesn’t give him a solid answer. Sometimes, giving empty hope to others will turn friendship into hate when things don’t work out smoothly.

Seeing that Lin Luoran has done emergency treatments to the injured, the young cultivator who asked about the condition of Mu Tiannan’s cousin, asks again, “Master, what should we do now?”

Lin Luoran notices that people’s spirit in the yard is low and she wants to give the cultivators more confidence. She asks smilingly, “What’s your name?”

The young cultivator glances at Wen Guanjing, who is trying to pretend not to know this young man, and replies, “My name is Wen Runlan. I’m from the Wen family on Mount Zu.”

Turns out that this young man is a member of the Wen family. At this crucial moment, the famous families of the world of cultivation can surprisingly work together. They are willing to send here the younger generation of the family in danger. Lin Luoran now has changed her bad impression of those families.

Everybody starts to smile. Lin Luoran and Wen Runlan’s conversation has drawn everybody’s attention from the helplessness after the darkness falls.

A while later, Wen Runlan realizes that Lin Luoran is just lulling him like he is a baby. He says grumpily, “Master, you haven’t answered my question yet!”

Lin Luoran realizes that everybody is waiting for her answer. She doesn’t know when she has become the pillar of these cultivators.

“Runlan, let’s say that if someone suddenly turns off the light in your room, what is he up to?”

Wen Runlan sniffs, “To scare me?”

Wen Runlan is over 18 years old and he is so honest. He is nothing like Wen Guanjing. Lin Luoran looks at Wen Guanjing and sees him blushing because of his younger brother’s naïve answer. Wen Guanjing turns away, not wanting to look at this.

Lin Luoran bursts of dry coughs, “If someone turns off the light, he is just trying to scare you, trap you, or to delay you because he is not able to fight you.”

Wen Runlan doesn’t fully understand Lin’s words. He says, “Delay us… What should we do then?”

Lin Luoran looks at the luminous flower in her hand and smiles, “If someone steals your light, we shall just wait.”

Wait for what? Wait for the bat to become anxious and come out itself.

Do you think that I’ll send my people to search the yard and the rooms so that you can kill them one by one?

No way!

Lin Luoran claps her hands and asks, “Are you guys hungry? I have lots of food. We can eat while we wait.”

The cultivators are speechless. Master Lin always seems to be so cold and she just wants to eat in this nervous situation… Is this the difference between talented people and the ordinary ones? Master Lin is so strong in mind! Wow!

While smiling, Lin Luoran looks at the dark spots where the luminous flowers can’t light up.

The bat monster must have a strong spiritual mind. It has covered the entire school within its spiritual mind and Lin Luoran can’t feel anything. What is it up to? Will her plan be solid enough? Lin Luoran has a little doubt.

At this time, Wen Guanjing holds Lin Luoran’s hands when no one is looking.

His hand warms up Lin’s cold hand. Lin Luoran’s eyelids twitch, then she notices that Wen Guanjing is staring at her without looking away. Lin knows that this is nothing romantic. Wen is encouraging her.

Lin Luoran is having a subtle feeling that though she has laid foundation before Wen does, Wen Guanjing remains a comfort to her heart like he is still her “brother Wen”.

The situation has gone in another direction. The cultivators outside of the wall, as well as Lu Sanchun, must be so worried.

We have to get out more quickly. Should she make the attack?

Lin Luoran is not sure.
