As the calamity clouds dispersed, it indicated that the old crane's calamity was over. Due to the distance, no one knew whether the old crane succeeded. Just when the inner circle fell into silence, those who had been waiting in the middle circle could not wait to rush into the inner circle and headed straight for the small earthen hill where the old crane was just now.

After being baptized by ninety-nine and eighty-one lightning strikes, the small hill that was not very high to begin with is no longer recognizable in its former appearance, and the place where the old crane was is now a complete big pit.

When those black-level and white-level masters arrived, all they saw was a deep pit. There was nothing in it except a bird feather that was charred black by lightning.

"Master, Lao He and I have already reached the bottom of the barrier."

After hearing this, Luo Qingran quickly spread his spiritual sense downwards. Sure enough, about ten meters above the ground, there was a large group of ghost vines.

Then, Luo Qingran moved his mind and took Gui Teng and Xiao Yinzi into the space, leaving only a Kongk barrier on the ground.

When Old Du followed everyone into the inner circle, he saw the low-level and shoddy hidden barrier set up by his own disciple. When he used his spiritual sense to take a look, he almost got angry: this damn disciple was such a worry. He had rushed here in a hurry, but this dead kid made him disappear out of thin air.

However, thinking about it, this is a good idea, at least there will be no danger. So, Du Lao followed the crowd and walked around inside. Originally, he just wanted to do something for show, but he found a problem.

Normally, when a monster appears in the inner circle undergoing tribulation, the pressure brought by the thunderbolt would usually scare the holy-level monsters in the inner circle and make them run towards the central circle. But today the inner circle was too quiet, and they all came from the outer circle, and they didn't see any monsters running away in panic along the way.

Where are the monsters? Especially those holy monsters living in the inner circle? Where have they gone?

The same question also appeared in the minds of others. The monsters that were undergoing the tribulation disappeared, and all the monsters in the inner circle disappeared.

"Hello, old man. Do you feel that there is something weird going on here today?" Suddenly a middle-aged man came to Mr. Du, bowed, and then asked.

"Who are you?" Old Du looked up and down at the person next to him. He was at the initial stage of Mo level and had good strength, but he looked unfamiliar, so he asked.

"I am Lei Duo, the Patriarch of the Lei Family in the Imperial Capital."

In addition to the royal Xuanyuan family, the top families in the imperial capital include the Song family, the Xiao family, and the Lei family. Basically, the direct lineage of each family stayed in the imperial capital, while other branches developed in other large and medium-sized cities in order to obtain more information and resources.

The Song family has existed the longest, has a moderate and peaceful family style, strict family education, and is the strongest compared to other families.

Next is the Xiao family. The Xiao family is quite powerful, but they mainly focus on alchemy. It is said that the current head of the family was lucky enough to contract a strange fire when he was out for training many years ago, and now he is a third-grade alchemist.

It is said that the ancestor of the Lei family came from the upper realm and was the strongest in Qianming Continent. However, due to too few resources for cultivation and thin spiritual energy, their strength is far inferior to that of their ancestors. However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the family is still wealthy. In order to preserve the family business, their descendants are more concerned with scheming.

"Master Lei, you are polite. It is really strange here today. Not a single holy beast has appeared. Normally, after a holy beast successfully advances to a divine beast, the demon beast will transform into a human form and enter a weak period. If its crystal core is absorbed and refined at this time, it will be of great benefit. But this time, there is no movement, and the advanced demon beast has disappeared. I can't figure out the secret of this!"

"What's your name, old man? You look unfamiliar, so you must not be from the imperial capital. It must be fate that we meet today. Why not take this opportunity to get to know each other? If there is a chance in the future, you can come to visit your house."

The head of the Lei family is already at the Mo level, but he cannot see through the strength of the old man in front of him. He thinks that the old man is most likely from the upper realm, so he wants to make friends with him. Even if he cannot go to the upper realm, being able to meet such a person will help him have a backer if any of the family members are able to ascend.

When Elder Du saw the flattering look on Patriarch Lei's face, he looked down on him a little, so he put on a professional smile and said, "Patriarch Lei, you are too polite. I am just a wanderer with no fixed place to live. I happened to be nearby today so I came to take a look."

When the head of the Lei family saw that Mr. Du was just a casual cultivator, he gave up the idea, bowed, and left.

Upon seeing this, Old Du shook his head. With such an impetuous person becoming the head of a family, the Lei family in the imperial capital was just an empty shell that lived on the name of its ancestors.

Those who rushed to the inner circle swept the inner circle again, and it was not a wasted trip. They looted all the natural treasures that the big guys had guarded for many years, and then left one by one, and only Old Du stayed.

I saw Elder Du walk into the barrier and said unhappily, "Little girl, everyone outside has left, why don't you hurry out."

"Oh my god, what's going on!" Old Du exclaimed. He felt a flash before his eyes and found himself in the lobby of the space villa.

"You little bitch are so bold, aren't you worried that my disappearance will arouse suspicion?" Old Du looked around, looking at the completely different room in front of him, and kept complaining.

"Master, even if everyone saw it, it's just you who disappeared out of thin air. What does it have to do with me? Hahahaha..."

"You little rascal, you're going to kill your master!" Old Du walked over to the sofa where Luo Qingran was sitting and sat down, only to find a little baby wrapped tightly in a piece of floral cloth on the sofa.

When the little kid's eyes met Old Du's, the little kid arched his back like a gaudy caterpillar and moved very hard towards Luo Qingran's direction.

"I've never seen anything like this in my life. I've finally advanced to the next level, and before I can enjoy the feeling of being the king, I run into this evil god again. How unlucky I am." The little kid kept muttering to himself as he arched his back.

Although the voice was very low, everyone present was a cultivator and could hear everything clearly. Luo Qingran looked at his master with curiosity, and the thirst for knowledge in his eyes was too obvious.

"Ahem, actually, when I came here decades ago, I found a magical herb next to its nest. It was exactly what I needed, so I picked it."

"Are you picking it? You are robbing it. Not only did you beat me up, you also destroyed my family! Humph! How dare you say that with such a thick skin?" Little Naitian was already sitting next to Luo Qingran, and he retorted loudly with confidence.

"Who told you not to give it to me? Can you blame me? Besides, I calculated that your chance is not with that grass, so I took it. Besides, you can't beat me."

"And then you bully the weak and enslave me. Why don't you say anything?"

Luo Qingran looked at the little kid and then at her own master. The combined age of these two must be around a thousand years old, so it looked like a quarrel between children.

"Alright, stop arguing. So many years have passed, and Old Crane has now successfully transformed. Let's forget about the past and stop chasing after the past. It's enough for the two of you to stop here."

"That's fine. I, Old He, am not the kind of person who would get to the bottom of things, so I'll let you go for now." The little kid said to Old Dumpling in a fierce tone.

However, he soon got up and said to Luo Qingran righteously: "Now I can break through to the divine beast level all because of the opportunity given by you, little fairy. To express my sincere gratitude, please make a contract with me. I am willing to follow you for life, and I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

After saying that, he wanted to salute Luo Qingran, but he forgot that his body was still wrapped in several layers of floral fabric. As a result, he only heard two "bangs, Ouch!" and Lao He rolled to the ground miserably.

"Little fairy, you are not cute anymore. Why don't you continue to order from me?" The little milk ball was lying on his back on the ground at this moment. Fortunately, the ground was covered with thick carpet, otherwise Lao He would have a bump on the back of his head.

Luo Qingran suppressed his smile, picked up the old crane from the ground, placed him on the sofa, and let him sit on the back of the sofa. "Old Crane, you have to think carefully. You monsters are born proud. Once you form a contract with a human, you will lose your freedom. I hope you can consider it carefully."

Lao He also lowered his eyelids and stopped talking, falling into deep thought.

Luo Qingran continued, "My soul contract has been taken. The only ones you can choose are the life contract, the equality contract, and the master-servant contract. I hope you can think carefully before making a decision. After all, it is not easy for a demon beast to cultivate to the divine beast level."

Seeing that the little boy couldn't figure it out for a while, Mr. Du stood up and began to carefully inspect the villa.
