"I've had a breakthrough recently, so there have been some changes."

Ji Ranran didn't explain much to Cui Yan.

"Uncle Master, this is my fiancé, Xiao Yi."

"Yeah, I heard Jiannan talk about it."

Cui Yan nodded and his eyes fell on Xiao Yi.

"Uncle Cui."

Xiao Yi also greeted him.

"Well, a talented man and a beautiful woman. Well, if this is your master..."

Cui Yan felt a little emotional, but paused and didn't continue.

"By the way, how was the meeting last night?"

"My master... is still in a coma. I'm afraid he doesn't even know I'm gone."

Ji Ranran shook her head.

"Ah."

Cui Yan sighed and asked Xiao Yi and the other two to sit down.

"Master Cui, I came to visit you. First of all, I want to thank you for what you did before."

Ji Ranran said seriously.

"If you hadn't intervened in time on the way back that day, I would have had a hard time escaping."

"I just happened to come back at that time, and luckily I ran into them. Fortunately... your fellow apprentices were all fine afterwards, and it was also because Master Que was wise and did not make things difficult for them."

Cui Yan said.

"Also, I think I should return the opportunity you gave me, so..."

"No, Master Cui, that book was found for you. I also know that relying on that book... I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to do anything for my master."

Ji Ranran said slowly.

"Xiao Ran, you misunderstood your uncle. If there was hope, I would have stepped forward without you having to find any opportunities. But the current situation..."

Cui Yan sighed.

"You have to understand that I'm not doing this for myself. I also have Senior Brother Yang and his disciples. I have to consider them."

"I see……"

Ji Ranran nodded.

"To be honest, even if you find me here right now, it will have a negative impact on me, but after thinking about it, I still think I should meet you."

Cui Yan continued.

"Uncle Master, you don't think my master and his friends would do those things, do you?"

Ji Ranran frowned.

"I know your master. He won't do that, but..."

Cui Yan paused.

"But no one can guarantee whether your uncles have any problems or not, so whether your master knows about it or not, Master Que... will not tolerate him. Don't you understand this?"

"But……"

Ji Ranran was startled.

"Master Que wants to use your master's incident to warn everyone, including Cai Chen and me, so can I still stand up?"

Cui Yan said again.

"If I stand up, I will be implicated, but it will inevitably increase the hatred of the Lord towards your master."

Hearing this, Ji Ranran had a complicated expression on her face, and exchanged glances with Xiao Yi. What he said did make some sense.

"No matter what, I will save my master. Even if I die, I will prove to Master Que that my master is innocent!"

After a while, Ji Ranran's tone changed and she thought about tomorrow's weapon refining test.

Xiao Yi was right, that was her real opportunity!

"Xiao Ran, don't you already have a target of suspicion? Why are you still indifferent?"

Cui Yan asked.

"But I have no direct evidence, and I don't understand why he must kill me."

Ji Ranran replied that when facing Cui Yan, there were some things she would not worry about.

"Maybe it's because of the opportunity you gave me."

Cui Yan said.

"Probably not. I've been hunted before, but... I'm not sure who those people were."

Ji Ranran replied, and suddenly thought of the Tiangan Pearl.

Xiao Yi's eyes also narrowed. Could it be that the matter of the Tiangan Pearl... has already been known by Cai Chen?

If that were the case, then everything would make sense.

"Xiao Ran, when you met your master before you went down the mountain last time, did he say anything to you or give you anything?"

Cui Yan asked.

"My master..."

Ji Ranran hesitated. Since Xiao Yi said that her master would not let her hand over the Tiangan Pearl, she was not going to mention it again.

"He just wanted me to go down the mountain temporarily. He might have anticipated that my fellow disciples would be imprisoned, so he told me about the opportunity in Qingshan Town..."

"So that's it..."

Cui Yan nodded, thoughtfully.

"In short, you only have two options right now. Either find evidence of the other party's false accusation and find a breakthrough... or find evidence to prove that your master and uncle were wrongly accused!"

"Disciple understands..."

Ji Ranran bowed.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Ji Ranran and Xiao Yi prepared to leave.

"Xiaoran."

Cui Yan called out to Ji Ranran and a broken seventh-grade magic weapon flashed in his hand.

"I guess you don't have a seventh-grade divine weapon that can be smelted. This is for you. Prepare well for tomorrow's weapon refining test."

"This……"

Ji Ranran's heart moved. Cui Yan was Yang Jiannan's master. Logically, he should hope that his disciple would win. After all, everyone would have such selfish desires. It was normal.

But now, Cui Yan actually helped her so much that she was really touched.

"Take it. It's like returning your chance to you."

Cui Yan said.

"Thank you, Master Cui!"

Ji Ranran took it with both hands and bowed to express her gratitude.

Then, the two left.

"Your uncle Cui is right."

Xiao Yi said slowly.

"what?"

Ji Ranran didn't quite understand.

"We have to find a way to break through, but relying on the seriously injured warrior we captured yesterday is useless."

Xiao Yi said.

"So what is the breakthrough you are talking about?"

Ji Ranran asked.

"I'll tell you when I confirm it."

Xiao Yi kept the secret in suspense. In fact, he had already had some ideas in mind, but was delayed because of the meeting with Cui Yan.

In addition, the meeting with Cui Yan did allow him to gain further understanding of the situation.

Peng Zimo's inference was correct. The key at this moment was not with Cai Chen, but with the Lord of the Palace, Zhong Yucheng!

Ji Ranran was confused, but she didn't ask any more questions for the time being.

The two quickly returned to the courtyard, where Xuanyuan Yunxi had already prepared dinner.

Before he could sit down, Pei Yuanliang followed in from outside: "How is it, Ranran? Did Master Cui agree?"

"No, I didn't beg him again, nor did I tell him about the Tiangan Pearl."

Ji Ranran shook her head.

"Why, you didn't give the Tiangan Pearl to Master Cui?"

Pei Yuanliang's tone changed.

"Yes, I've thought about it. The Tiangan Pearl was given to me by my master. I can't give it to others."

Ji Ranran said.

"Besides, saving the master shouldn't be entrusted to others."

"you……"

Pei Yuanliang was stunned.

"Brother, you don't still want to persuade Ran Ran to give the Tian Gan Pearl to Cai Chen, do you?"

Xiao Yi suddenly asked, calling him "Senior Brother" for the first time in a few days.

"I……"

Pei Yuanliang was stunned, his expression changed. It seemed that Ji Ranran had also told Xiao Yi what he said.

"No matter who you give it to! I just hope that Master survives! Nothing else matters!"

"Brother, I'll have a chance when I win the test tomorrow!"

Ji Ranran said seriously.

"Ran Ran, that's just a test. Even if your realm has improved recently, does that mean your weapon refining ability can definitely compare to Yang Jiannan's?"

Pei Yuanliang frowned.

"Even if it's him, I'm afraid he can't repair the seventh-grade divine weapon!"

"Brother, I have this confidence!"

Ji Ranran's eyes were firm.

"Xiao Yi, I'm going to the weapon refining room. Come find me if you have any questions."

"RanRan, eat something first."

Xuanyuan Yunxi called out to Ji Ranran.

"No, Sister Yunxi, I'm already one step behind Senior Brother Yang and the others, I can't delay any longer."

After Ji Ranran finished speaking, she turned and left.

Looking at Pei Yuanliang again, he had a complicated expression. He was about to leave when he was stopped by Xiao Yi.
