Chapter 2081
Hearing Su Yao's question, Niu Er looked even more ashamed.
“Miss Su Yao, I know you are worried about Brother Li Lan’s safety, and I, Niu Er, am also deeply sorry for this matter.”
"But the one imprisoned in that forbidden area is, after all, my ancestor of the Heavenly Bull Sect. His strength once even reached the peak of the Upper God realm."
"Even now, only a wisp of a soul remains, and it cannot leave the forbidden area even half a step."
"But as long as he is in the forbidden area, he has absolute control. Even if we use all our strength, we will never be able to open a gap in the forbidden area."
After hesitating for a moment, Niu Er said again:
"But don't worry, even though the forbidden area is sealed now, as long as Li Lan tells my ancestor that he is willing to join the Tianniu Sect, he will definitely not encounter any danger."
"In all the years I've served as sect leader, I've never seen my ancestor make things difficult for any of the sect's disciples."
These words made Su Yao even angrier.
She knew Li Lan's character well; he would never easily join any sect, even in the face of death.
When Li Lan was invited by the Starry Sky Sect, he decisively refused. How much more so would he refuse an invitation from the little-known Heavenly Bull Sect?
However, Su Yao can only pin her hopes on Li Lan agreeing to join the Tianniu Sect, in which case she can save her life.
Su Yao said no more and turned to leave the sect master's hall.
She would stay outside the forbidden area for days on end, waiting for Li Lan to come out.
After a long period of not seeing Li Lan, even some ordinary disciples of the Heavenly Bull Sect began to have doubts about the matter.
However, in order to quell the turmoil, several clan elders and Niu Er stepped forward together to inform the disciples that Li Lan was merely in seclusion and had not encountered any mishaps, which temporarily calmed the situation.
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed.
Outside the bamboo forest of the Tianniu Sect, Niu Er came here again.
When he saw the beautiful figure guarding outside the bamboo forest, he felt a pang of pity.
He sought out his master again and asked with some concern:
"Master, is there still no sign of the seal on the forbidden area being broken?"
The old man had also been guarding this place, but even he couldn't detect any changes within the forbidden area.
Faced with Niu Er's question, he could only shake his head helplessly and say:
"Even I cannot determine what happened in the forbidden area, nor do I know whether my young friend Li Lan is still alive."
"However, so much time has passed. Given that ancestor's temperament, I'm afraid young friend Li Lan has probably already met with misfortune."
At this point, the old man looked apologetically at Su Yao, who had been waiting there.
He couldn't bear to tell Su Yao the news, but at the same time, he didn't want to see her waiting here for someone who was already dead.
Niu Er also looked at Su Yao, his eyes also showing some reluctance.
“Master, should I tell her the truth? It’s not a good idea for her to keep waiting here.”
The old man sighed, did not answer Niu Er, and turned to leave.
Niu Er hesitated for a moment, but he held back and did not tell Su Yao about Li Lan.
He would wait a few more days. If he still couldn't enter the forbidden area, he would tell Su Yao about Li Lan.
Facing the stone door, Su Yao slowly opened her slightly red and swollen phoenix eyes.
"Brother Li Lan, are you really dead?"
"No, I don't believe it, you couldn't have died like this."
Su Yao couldn't blame the Tianniu Sect entirely for this, since they were the ones who came to the Tianniu Sect on their own initiative.
But so much time has passed, and there is still no sign of Li Lan coming out, even she is starting to waver.
A few days ago, Niu Er told Su Yao some news.
