Chapter 206: Knocked Ou (2/2)
As Ying Lan thought about his plan, the elder entered the bath. Ying Lan ignited the black bottle and the fragrance slowly drifted towards the elder.
“Huh?” The Phoenix King Valley Elder spoke with doubt, “Who is burning this unique incense? I shall praise him tomorrow.” The elder started praising the smell of the incense. He reclined his body into the bath as he closed his eyes to rest. He didn’t know that this was a unique incense made by Bai Luochu to deal with him.
Finally, Ying Lan noticed that the elder’s head was slowly drooping. It had already been a long time since Ying Lan lit the sleeping incense.
Bai Luochu couldn’t help but shake her head secretly. It seemed like her strength was still incompetent and was unable to extract the essence of the medicinal ingredients. Otherwise, the Phoenix King Valley Elder wouldn’t take such a long time to fall asleep.
When Ying Lan confirmed that the elder was already asleep, he immediately sneaked into the room and retrieved the spirit ring. He handed it over to Bai Luochu before listening to her instruction, “Throw all his clothes out into the courtyard. Leave nothing here!”
Ying Lan didn’t understand Bai Luochu’s intentions for doing so, but he still carried out her order. Ying Lan knew that she wouldn’t ask him to do something useless. She definitely had her reasons for doing so.
“Go, head towards our destination, hurry!” Bai Luochu executed her movement skills with all her might and sprinted towards the forest in the southwest direction.
Ying Lan quickly followed behind her. This forest was quite a distance from the manor and even though they rushed over as quickly as they could, there wasn’t much time left.
Bai Luochu had already completely examined the treasures in the spirit ring on the way here. Apart from the Green Flame Eagle’s youngling, she noticed plenty of other valuable items. There were some that would greatly benefit her cultivation and there were some precious herbs she could use to refine peerless elixirs. Since she had already stolen the spirit ring, why should she leave anything for him? Since a grudge was already formed, there was no harm in making it worse.
“Mistress, how is it? Is the egg inside?” Ying Lan was very anxious. He had spent a lot of time and effort, but if the youngling wasn’t inside, it would be an utter waste of effort. There was no doubt Bai Luochu would be extremely disappointed.
Bai Luochu nodded. It seemed like the operation wasn’t carried out in vain.
“There is not a lot of time left. I will open up the restriction on this spirit ring in a moment. No matter how sleepy the elder is, he will wake up the moment I open the ring. We will need to run away as quickly as possible.”
Ying Lan quickly piped up with his suggestion. “Mistress, we should leave the ring here before rushing back to the city. He won’t be able to track us down.”
“On my signal, we will rush towards the city. What do you think?”
