My Girlfriend From Turquoise Pond Requests My Help After My Millennium Seclusion Chapter 173
Advertisement
It was an ordinary accessory shop.
Jiang Lan looked around and didn't know what to buy.
Xiao Yu did not wear any accessories.
Moreover, some things were not suitable as gifts.
Their actual relationship was still that of a Senior Sister and a Junior Brother There were not many changes.
"I should find some puzzle toys for her."
Xiao Yu was still young. Although she did not look like a little girl, her temperament should still be at the level of a young kid.
With this thought in mind, he left the accessory shop again.
Then, he headed straight for the East Road Bridge.
First, he had to deal with the Heavenly Human Race. He would come back in a few months to buy what he needed before returning.
When Jiang Lan arrived at the East Coast Bridge, he saw an endless abyss.
"It should be here."
With this thought in mind, he leaped down. As a late-stage Human Immortal, he naturally had no problem going down.
However, he remained vigilant.
He had just directly progressed to the late-stage Human Immortal Realm. This sudden elevation made him feel as if he had nothing to fear when facing the Heavenly Human Race.
Because of this, there was a chance that he would unconsciously underestimate them. This was very dangerous.
It was easy for one to have a misconception of one's own strength after a drastic increase in cultivation.
A misconception of one's own strength meant that one was no longer wary of others and had begun to underestimate his enemies.
One would even have a sense of arrogance when he walked.
In the end, he would become the one who was killed.
That was why Jiang Lan didn't dare relax. He could hide his cultivation, and so could the others.
After meeting so many people, he knew that everyone more or less had some trump cards.
It was just that those people had died too quickly when facing him and didn't have the chance to use it.
After dropping for a long time, he discovered a cave. There was no one inside, but there was still some residual aura.
When he entered, they only saw a table.
"Not here?"
"Or perhaps they have changed their location?"
Since the spy had died, it was not impossible for them to change.
Finally, Jiang Lan stood at the entrance of the cave and waited.

"I'll wait six months. If they don't come back in six months, I'll leave."
If the other party was too powerful, he would leave as well.
…
Four months later.
In the small town of Qingcheng, Miao Qinghe led his men towards the East Road Bridge.
"According to the divination of the Seniors in our race, we might find something related to Jiang Lan under this East Coast Bridge." Miao Qinghe frowned.
"Dongguo Yang must have sold us out."
"Dongguo Yang was killed instantly and so were the people he had sourced for help from. Although I'm not sure what their cultivation bases are, they shouldn't be weak," Miao Xin said worriedly.
"Could it be that Jiang Lan is very strong?"
"The people from our race have always been divining, but they have still yet to find out the actual details of Jiang Lan. There should be someone protecting him. Besides, they might be waiting for us under the East Road Bridge," said Miao Qinghe warily.
"The other party's strength is a mystery. However, as long as he isn't a True Immortal, it's impossible for him to kill us."
He had a Dharma treasure bestowed by his clan that could block all attacks below the True Immortal Realm.
A True Immortal might be able to defeat him, but it would take quite some time.
"Ever since the people from our race learned that Jiang Lan had ascended the Stairway To Heavens, it has always been like a thorn stuck in their hearts. We have no choice but to eliminate him."
"Let's hope we can find something this time and kill him in one go." Someone spoke.
The others nodded.
However, no one was optimistic. The other party's identity was not ordinary. Kunlun would not let them succeed so easily.
Therefore, they were prepared to die for this mission.
If they succeeded, their future would be bright, but if they failed, they would die.
This was what happened on the path of immortality.
When they arrived at the East Road Bridge, Miao Qinghe frowned. He had a strong feeling. Then, he said to Miao Xin.
"Miao Xin, leave this place first. If we don't come out for three days, consider us dead. Flee back as fast as you can. Tell the people from our race that there is no need to send any more Human Immortals. They should directly send out the most powerful people. I have a bad feeling about this."

"Your hunch is right, but there's no need to let anyone escape. It's too late." A sudden voice sounded behind them.
Next, Miao Qinghe and the others were pulled into the abyss.
They had no time to even defend themselves.
Miao Qinghe immediately activated his Dharma treasure and attempted to break through.
"The other party is a Human Immortal, and not an ordinary one at that. I will help you guys clear a path. Quickly escape."
Boom!
The power belonging to Miao Qinghe began to erupt as he opened up a path for the other four.
He had borrowed the power of a Dharma treasure, a True Immortal Dharma treasure. Even though he had only used a small portion of its power, it should not be a problem for him to break through the pull of the force.
Boom!
After the impact of the power, their speed of descent indeed began to slow down.
Moreover, cracks had started to appear. There was a chance of breaking through.
Miao Qinghe's strength had increased, and he was also working even harder.
The others didn't hesitate to attack the rift.
Bang!
Under their desperate efforts, they finally broke through the restrictive power that had suddenly appeared.
Now that the seal had been broken through, they were overjoyed to be able to escape.
"Run!"
Miao Qinghe shouted loudly. He walked forward to block the other attacks.
Except…
Just as Miao Xin and the others were about to escape through the opening, the four were met with a heavy punch that extinguished their lives.
Boom!!!
The blood mist dispersed and landed on Miao Qinghe.
Fireworks exploded.
Miao Qinghe was stunned on the spot, but he didn't hesitate to leave as well.
Now that he was alone, there was no need for him to worry about anything else. All he had to do was flee.
"I can feel it. You only have the strength of a Human Immortal. You can't stop me."
As the sound of his voice faded, a cold voice sounded from below.
"Dharma treasures are indeed useful at times."
Following the sound was the appearance of a rope.
It was the Immortal Binding Rope (Pseudo).
The Immortal Binding Rope (Pseudo) passed through Miao Qinghe's Dharma treasure and tied him up before pulling him down.
"Immortal-binding Rope? Why do you have it?"
Miao Qinghe was terrified.
He was terrified of the origins of the Dharma treasure his opponent had and the situation he was in.
He could not escape.
In just a breath's time, he was dragged into the cave.
Bang!
Miao Qinghe was thrown to the ground. He still had a defensive Dharma treasure on him, as if it would be difficult for anyone below the True Immortal realm to kill him.
As soon as he landed, he moved and stood up.
At this moment, he saw a figure standing in the shadows by the door. It was a strange figure that seemed to have come from the darkness.
"Who exactly are you?"
With his strength, he was actually unable to see the other party's appearance or even cultivation.
"The man you're looking for."
Jiang Lan walked out from the shadows and revealed his face. He looked at Miao Qinghe.
"Surprised?"
Looking at a face that he had seen many times in the portrait, Miao Qinghe subconsciously retreated a little.
Impossible.
It was impossible for the other party to be so powerful.
A fake?
"You are Jiang Lan?" Miao Qinghe asked.
"I want to ask you some questions." Jiang Lan didn't reply.
At this moment, he was surrounded by his array formations. If anyone approached him, he would escape immediately.
Of course, he would take the life of the person in front of him first.
"Have you really cultivated the Empyrean Scripture?" Miao Qinghe asked in disbelief.
What they had been worried about all this time had come true?
"You want to kill me merely for this?" Jiang Lan asked softly.
"Unfortunately, I don't even know what the Empyrean Scripture is. However, I've heard that to cultivate the Empyrean Scripture, one needed to forgo all of one's emotions.
Even if such a cultivation technique was given to me, I wouldn't want to cultivate it either. The Heavenly Human Race didn't even bother asking about my opinion and wants to kill me just because of this?"
"How can we allow a timebomb to sleep beside us?" Miao Qinghe said in a low voice.

Wretched Brood
I knew I was different from the beginning. I wanted nothing to do with those simpletons that valued only food, drink, and women. So I distanced myself from my brood, not considering myself a goblin. I even tried to become one of the humans, befriending some in the process. I thought that I’d live a relatively happy life as a “human” adventurer, albeit behind a wooden mask. At that time I didn’t know that I’d soon become the enemy of all humanoid races, a being that was despised and feared by all intelligent creatures. The calamity called “Scourge.”

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

The 48 Laws of Power in Practice
Discover how power works in the world, through true stories and real-world applications. In the game of power, we all play - as either conscious or unconscious players. So we can't afford not to know the rules. The ** chapters have the most outrageous content. In each chapter, I will be summarizing one of the laws and how it can be applied to current events and pop culture. Some of you have told me the stories are what you enjoy the most. They are real, raw, and anonymous so that others may learn from my mistakes. There will be cringe-worthy stories of self-sabotage, but perhaps also some unlikely triumphs. Some of the details are changed to protect the innocent, (or perhaps guilty). "The 48 Laws of Power" by Robert Greene illustrates truths about power, through philosophy and lessons from three thousand years of history, which still hold true today. There is a lot to learn from each chapter. I encourage you to go on this journey with me by reflecting on how each law might apply to you. Together, may we learn from the past and take control of the future.
