Chen Lan led Liu Qingmei straight ahead, and the guard beside them frowned at the sight, just about to stop them when a mysterious power instantly knocked him down, sending him flying backward, rolling dozens of times on the ground before passing out.

"How dare you..." Another guard saw this and stormed forward, but Chen Lan glanced at him coldly, causing his body to tremble violently. He dared not say anything more, trembling slightly.

"Get lost." Chen Lan spoke coldly, causing the guard to retreat a few steps, not daring to make a sound.

Chen Lan pulled Liu Qingmei through the city gate, and no one dared to stop them.

The young girl behind looked at the back in front of her, exuding a sense of safety, her eyes sparkling with light, and her cheeks slightly blushed.

Before long, Chen Lan stopped and turned to look at Liu Qingmei, only to see the girl staring at him blankly. When Liu Qingmei saw Chen Lan turn back, she instantly lowered her head shyly and spoke softly, "Why aren't we moving?"

Chen Lan spoke calmly, "Lead the way. I don't know where the Liu Family is."

Hearing this, the girl's face turned even redder with embarrassment, and she ran ahead at a trot with her head down.

Chen Lan saw this, smiled helplessly, and followed her.

He was not obtuse and naturally understood the girl's thoughts. However, he didn't want to pursue a romantic relationship now, especially since the other party was a minor, too young for him.

Not long after, Liu Qingmei led Chen Lan to the Liu Family. When the guard at the Liu Mansion gate saw her return, his expression changed drastically. One of them immediately ran inside, while the other nervously spoke, "Miss, how come you've returned?"

"Am I not allowed to return? Get out of the way!" Liu Qingmei frowned and spoke coldly.

She had no goodwill left for these guards; they had all been bought off by her uncle.

"I'm sorry, Miss, but I can't let you inside." The guard expressed his difficulty, drawing his long sword and stepping closer to Liu Qingmei.

"Enough talk, we might as well kill our way in." At this moment, Chen Lan, whom the guard had not noticed, spoke coldly. A mysterious power instantly sent the guard flying, hitting the ground heavily, his life or death uncertain!

Chen Lan didn't even glance at him and stepped inside.

Liu Qingmei was taken aback for a moment, then quickly followed, feeling no pity for the guard. Once you choose betrayal, you must pay the price.

But as she entered, she was immediately stunned. People lay everywhere inside; the guards and servants were all lying on the ground, clutching their limbs and wailing in pain. Chen Lan stood proudly in the courtyard, like a War God.

"Who are you, to have such audacity to barge into the Liu Family!"

At this moment, a chubby man ran out of a room. His clothes were incredibly luxurious and expensive, made from the finest silk. His wealthy appearance shook as he ran, and his expression was furious, pointing at Chen Lan and shouting.

"The second son of the Liu Family, Liu Zongnian." Chen Lan saw him and spoke with a faint smile.

Upon hearing this, the chubby man's body trembled. The person before him clearly knew him and appeared to be targeting him. Could it be he's a nemesis?

But when he saw Liu Qingmei behind Chen Lan, he suddenly realized, smirking coldly, "Haha, so you are little Mei's lover. No wonder this girl runs out every day, claiming she's buying medicine for her father when she's actually meeting you secretly."

"You're talking nonsense! I'm out every day gathering medicine for Grandpa!" Liu Qingmei shouted angrily.

Others didn't care about Grandpa's life or death. Grandpa was the one who treated her the best. After Father left, Mother's status in the Liu Mansion plummeted. It was Grandpa who intervened so that she and her mother could continue living there.

If it weren't for Grandpa, she and her mother would have long been thrown out by those devilish people of the Liu Family.

"Haha, then why did you bring a man back? Do you intend for your man to seize the Liu Family assets while Father is dying? What great ambition you have, Liu Qingmei!"

"You! You're spouting nonsense!" Liu Qingmei's eyes widened in shock. She never expected her uncle to say something like this!

This was an insult to her reputation; was this even her uncle?

Was there a need to be so malicious toward her?

Snap!

In an instant, just as Liu Zongnian was about to speak further, he suddenly exploded, blood mist scattering in the air, scaring everyone around into a state of shock.

"Aaaah, Zongnian!" A woman, seemingly Liu Zongnian's wife, saw her husband suddenly die violently and screamed in terror, turning sharply towards Chen Lan: "You demon, you killed my husband, I want your life in return!"

Bang!

In an instant, the woman also exploded into a blood mist, her soul scattered.

Immediately, everyone else shuddered in renewed fear.

"Annoying." Chen Lan spoke calmly, then swept his gaze across the crowd: "Who else wants to rebel? I don't mind sending you on your way."

The cold tone and chilling words sent everyone trembling violently, shaking their heads continuously, not daring to speak.

Demon, this was nothing short of a nightmare. Liu Zongnian, an unrivaled Great Emperor, was just slapped to death. The person before them was definitely above a Daoist Venerable.

Who would dare provoke such a powerful figure!

Seeing no one resisting, Chen Lan turned back and looked at Liu Qingmei: "The matter is resolved, I've used my Divine Sense to check your grandpa. He's just at the end of his lifespan, with dwindling vitality, and he's been poisoned over a long time, causing him to be bedridden. It should be your uncle who did this. Such problems, I can fix with a snap of my fingers."

Finished speaking, Chen Lan walked toward Liu Qingmei's grandpa, "Liu Dongmu's" room, and Liu Qingmei quickly followed.

Upon entering, they saw an elder lying on a bed, eyes closed, complexion pale, while a woman beside him looked on worriedly.

The room was set up with a soundproof Barrier, so they couldn't hear any external sounds, and thus the elder and woman were unaware of the outside situation.

Until Liu Qingmei and Chen Lan came in did the woman notice someone had entered, turning around to reveal a delighted expression: "Mei Er, you're back. I was so worried."

"Mother! Grandpa can be saved!" Liu Qingmei rushed into the woman's embrace, excitedly and joyfully speaking.

On hearing this, the woman was slightly taken aback, her eyes then filled with joyous surprise, hurriedly asking, "Did you find Spirit Medicine to save Grandpa?"

"No, but I found someone who can save Grandpa."

With that, Liu Qingmei looked at Chen Lan behind her.

At this, the woman finally noticed Chen Lan, quickly stood up, revealing a gentle smile: "Hello, sir, did you come to save my old man?"

"Yes." Chen Lan nodded slightly, flicking his fingers to shoot out two beams of light, one of pure Life Dao Power and one of Soul Dao Power, nourishing the elder's body and soul.

Even Liu Qingmei and the woman didn't react before seeing the beams enter the elder's body, and before taking any action, the elder's body suddenly moved, letting out two coughs.

"Cough cough..."
