Chapter 194: Nalan Yanran's Determination!
"Transform into human forms, all of you."
Gu He looked at the few pets in front of him and spoke indifferently.
When magical beasts reach the Dou Zong realm, they can transform into human forms.
In the past, there was no need for this, and since the beasts did not particularly enjoy transforming into humans, Gu He never demanded it.
However, for the task Gu He was about to assign, it was necessary for these beasts to take human forms.
Upon hearing Gu He's words, the beasts were stunned for a moment, then they obeyed his command and began to transform into human forms one after another.
Moments later, the four beastly shadows disappeared from before Gu He's eyes, replaced by four human figures.
A middle-aged man with red hair, this was the Crimson Flame Demon Dragon.
A little boy with blond hair, this was the Golden Winged Giant Eagle.
A little girl with silver hair, this was the Void Beast.
A man in black clothes, exuding a cold aura, this was the Black Scaled Frigid Python.
"We greet the master!"
After the successful transformation, the four beasts shouted in unison.
Gu He's gaze swept over the four human figures, eventually settling on the red-haired middle-aged man, the blond little boy, and the silver-haired little girl, speaking solemnly, "Crimson Dragon, Little Jin, Void, I have an important task for you three to undertake."
Hearing this, the three beasts were momentarily startled, then responded in unison, "Please instruct us, Master!"
"Good!"
Gu He nodded, then said directly, "I have three disciples who are about to leave the mountain for training. I need the three of you to follow them and protect them in secret."
Speaking, Gu He's gaze turned to the red-haired man, "Crimson Dragon, you are responsible for protecting my eldest disciple, Liu Ling, to the Tagore Great Desert."
Then, Gu He looked at the blond little boy, "Little Jin, you are to protect my fourth disciple, Nalan Yanran, to the Demon Beast Mountain Range."
Finally, Gu He turned to the silver-haired little girl, "Void, you are to protect my second disciple, heading to the Yun Empire."
Upon hearing Gu He's command, the three beasts nodded without hesitation, saying in unison, "Yes, Master!"
"Master, what about me?"
Just then, the black-haired man spoke up, "They all have tasks, why don't I?"
The black-haired man was the Black Scaled Frigid Python, the only eighth-tier existence among the four beasts.
In his view, being the strongest, he should be the most valued by the master.
But unexpectedly, while the other beasts had tasks, he was left out, which made the Black Scaled Frigid Python somewhat frustrated.
"Why do these weaker beings get the master's favor?" he thought, feeling discontent.
Hearing this, Gu He's gaze turned to the Black Scaled Frigid Python, speaking indifferently, "Hei Lin, as for you, I have other arrangements."
Hearing this, the Black Scaled Frigid Python calmed down.
Gu He looked at Little Jin and the others, continuing to order, "Remember, I said to protect them in secret. Do not intervene unless it's a matter of life and death."
"Yes, Master!" the three beasts nodded in agreement.
Gu He nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Go, they should be about to set off."
Then, Gu He communicated with Cai'er to open a passage, through which the three beasts quickly disappeared from the Nine-Colored Valley.
After the three beasts left, Gu He observed Qing Lin's condition for a while, seeing that the young girl's emotions had stabilized, he then left the Nine-Colored Valley with the Black Scaled Frigid Python.
"Before leaving, I should go see her..."
The image of Yun Yun's beautiful face flashed through Gu He's mind, and he murmured to himself.
...
At the main peak of the Yunlan Sect.
"What, Elder Gu He has asked you to go down the mountain for training, and to the Demon Beast Mountain Range?"
In the great hall, Yun Yun was shocked upon hearing Nalan Yanran's purpose, speaking in disbelief.
"Not just me, Sister Xian, and Brother Liu Ling have been assigned by the teacher to train in different places."
Nalan Yanran explained the training task issued by Gu He from beginning to end to Yun Yun.
"The Yun Empire!"
"The Tagore Great Desert!"
"Has Gu He gone mad?"
After listening to Nalan Yanran's words, Yun Yun's expression changed dramatically again, and shock appeared in her beautiful eyes.
Then, looking at Nalan Yanran, she said anxiously, "I'll go find him and ask him to cancel this training..."
As she spoke, Yun Yun was ready to leave the great hall.
"Don't!"
At this moment, Nalan Yanran suddenly called out to stop Yun Yun.
Hearing this, Yun Yun stopped in her tracks and turned around, only to see Nalan Yanran with a determined expression.
"Why? Yanran? Do you know how dangerous the Demon Beast Mountain Range is? Even I, as your teacher, cannot guarantee my safety there."
Remembering her own near-death experience in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, Yun Yun couldn't help but show a frightened expression.
Nalan Yanran was her only disciple, and she couldn't bear to see her heading to the perilous Demon Beast Mountain Range.
"I understand!"
"But I am willing to go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range for training."
Nalan Yanran answered, her expression still resolute.
"Teacher Gu He is right!"
"From birth till now, I have never experienced a life-and-death battle. A person's potential only erupts like a volcano when their life is threatened. With my previous lukewarm practice, I fear I will never become a true strong practitioner!"
Saying this, Nalan Yanran looked at Yun Yun with sparkling eyes, her tone serious, "Teacher, I am serious."
"I came here to bid farewell, not to ask the teacher to plead for me."
"I hope the teacher will allow me to go down the mountain and not go to Teacher Gu He..."
"Because I don't want Teacher Gu He to look down on me."
Nalan Yanran's expression was resolute, with an inexplicable determination.
Hearing Nalan Yanran's words, Yun Yun was stunned, looking blankly at the resolute Nalan Yanran in front of her, as if seeing her for the first time.
After a long time, Yun Yun finally came back to her senses, her eyes complex as she looked at Nalan Yanran, her tone carrying a hint of relief, "Yanran, you have really grown up."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Nalan Yanran's face, "A disciple always needs to grow."
"Well, since you have made up your mind, I won't stop you."
Yun Yun showed a hint of helplessness, looking at Nalan Yanran and saying, "However, you must promise to return safely. You are my only disciple, and in the future, I still expect you to take my place."
Nalan Yanran heard this and nodded seriously, "Teacher, don't worry. The mere Demon Beast Mountain Range won't take my life. I still have to defeat Xiao Yan in front of everyone. If I don't return, wouldn't it be a joke to him?"
"You understand, that's good."
Yun Yun smiled and then hesitated for a moment. With a thought, she took off the Xuan Bing Holy Armor she was wearing and handed it to Nalan Yanran, speaking softly, "Yanran, this is my personal soft armor. Take it for your protection."
Nalan Yanran did not refuse, took the soft armor, then bid farewell to Yun Yun and left the great hall directly.
Yun Yun watched Nalan Yanran's departing figure, a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Who allowed you to casually give away what I gave you?"
Just then, a clear voice suddenly rang out in the great hall.
