Chapter 173: Grounding
Call!
Nan Kerui trembled all over, cold sweat was extravagant, and his face was pale and terrifying, but his eyes were firm and his teeth were clenched.
He was now close to the Fifth Heavenly Ladder.
This is the ninth time he has climbed the ladder, the first few times have fallen without suspense, this is the highest record he climbed, Nan Kerui believes that if he still has sixty percent of the strength left in his heyday at this moment, he is absolutely sure to touch the fifth ladder, but unfortunately he is now exhausted, his heart is more than enough and his strength is insufficient, even if his mind is firm, no matter how he refuses to admit defeat, it is in vain.
However, Nan Kerui was not depressed, on the contrary, he could not hide a trace of joy in his heart, although he was determined to climb the fifth ladder before, but he was not sure, after all, he couldn't even stand firm on the fourth ladder for the first time, not to mention the fifth ladder where the pressure was doubled than the fourth ladder, but after these eight days of unremitting struggle, now he finally saw a glimmer of hope, after all, through his own efforts, he is now infinitely close to the fifth ladder, and victory is in sight.
And what made him excited was that after he continued to challenge the limit these days, the mirage illusion in the dantian became more and more rich and mysterious, although it was not enough to break through the triple heaven immediately, at least it had begun to faintly sprout.
"I've improved a little bit from the last time, and I'm about to reach the Fifth Heavenly Ladder, and it seems that it will take some time to climb the Fifth Heavenly Ladder. Nan Kerui's mood finally showed a hint of joy, if it is at this rate, with a little more effort, it should be about half a month and a day, and it will be a month or so to reach the top at the latest.
Bang!
After a moment of distraction, Nan Kerui's figure finally couldn't withstand the endless pressure brought by the ladder, and the bones all over his body seemed to be decomposed, broken into several pieces, a mouthful of blood spit out, and his body fell to the sky, knocking the ground into a big hole.
"Poof...... The ninth!" Nan Kerui spat out a mouthful of blood and sighed weakly.
With difficulty, he took out Hanhan's blood and took it.
If it weren't for Hanhan's blood in his hands, Nan Kerui would probably not even have the strength to climb the ladder for the second time now, and he would have broken his muscles and bones for a hundred days, not to mention that Nan Kerui's injuries were not ordinarily serious, and each time it was almost equivalent to paralysis.
......
"Huh?"
After Nan Ke Rui swallowed Hanhan's blood, his body quickly healed and recovered, and just as he was about to take a break and continue to climb the ladder, a sighing thought suddenly came in.
Nan Kerui glanced at the majestic Ten Thousand Heavenly Ladder, and his mind flashed out as soon as he moved, he knew Qiu Luo's temper, if it wasn't for the great relationship, he would never contact him at this critical time, so he flashed out without even thinking about it.
"What's wrong?" Nan Kerui's figure appeared in the room the next moment, staring at Joo and asking.
At this moment, in addition to Qiu Luo in the room, Wan Guan, who was originally sent by Nan Kerui to protect Xiang Nianran, was also here. Seeing Wan Guan appear here, Nan Kerui had already guessed a few points in his heart, this matter should be inseparable from Xiang Nianran.
"Let's talk about it. ”
Hearing this, Wan Guan hurriedly dragged his fat body forward, and said to Nan Kerui with an angry face. "Young master, Miss Xiang was grounded by her family. ”
"Oh, did they know about Sister Ran and her brother so quickly?" Nan Kerui couldn't help but be a little curious, this matter is also

A few of them knew that Xiang Nianran wouldn't say it, and Qiu Luo and Wan Guan wouldn't mention it, could it be that something went wrong on Xiang Nianran's side.
"But it's not right, if they really know the inside story, they wouldn't dare to do it. Nan Ke Rui thought about it but felt that it was unlikely, not to mention that Nan Ke Zhan was still alive now, even if he had passed away, the Xiang family did not dare to make any drastic moves.
"That's not the case......" Wan Guan shook his head. "It was Miss Xiang's grandfather, Xiang Yufeng, who decided to marry her to the prince of Zhao. ”
"What?!" Nan Kerui couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. "Your information is reliable?"
"It's true, this is what Miss Xiang told me personally, if it weren't for Miss Xiang's lack of wanting to break with the family, I would definitely beat them up. Wan Guan scolded and scolded, it seems that this breath makes him a little unable to swallow.
"If you don't marry sooner or later, why did you choose this time?" Nan Kerui couldn't help muttering to himself.
"Wanguan, tell me in detail what happened, what happened. ”
"Yesterday, Miss Xiang received a message from the family and returned to the family from the Imperial Academy, but was told that the family had made an agreement with His Royal Highness King Zhao, and wanted to marry Miss Xiang to the prince of King Zhao, and she would be married soon. Wan Guan slowly described the incident to Nan Kerui briefly.
"In that case, then why didn't you take Sister Ran away at that time?" Nan Kerui asked with a little confusion.
According to Wan Guan's skills, if he is willing, he definitely has the ability to take Xiang Nianran away, even if the Xiang family has a master to guard, everything is in vain in front of Wan Guan's elusive 'close to the end of the world', I am afraid that even his shadow may not be able to capture.
"Of course I thought about it, at that time, I couldn't wait to go up and repair the elders of the Xiang family who were full of great benevolence and righteousness, and they couldn't take care of their own lives, and they had to slap their ears to relieve the anger in my heart, but Miss Xiang didn't allow me to do it, what can I do. Wan Guan drooped his head, with a helpless face, he could have practiced his hands freely, but he could only watch dryly, he should be more uncomfortable than anyone else.
Nan Kerui couldn't help but nod when he heard this, he believed that this matter would be done.
"This thing is full of weird ......" Nan Ke Rui's mouth floated a wicked smile, and after a short thought, he ordered Qiu Luo.
"Sister Ran, do you have anything to bring to me?" Nan Kerui breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but turn to Wan Guan, how to deal with this matter depends on Xiang Nianran's meaning.
"By the way, Miss Xiang asked me to tell you, don't be impatient, give her some time and she will solve it. Wan Guan patted his head, and then remembered what Xiang Nianran reminded him before leaving, if it wasn't for Nan Kerui to ask, I'm afraid he would have forgotten about it.
Nan Kerui nodded, thought for a moment, and turned to Joo to command. "Old Qiu, go find out what's going on. ”
Qiu Luo nodded, and was about to leave, but the gate of Ruisheng Garden was pushed open at this time, and then Li Cai's babbling voice followed.
"Reiko, I see you're here. ”
Nan Kerui pursed his lips with a look of disdain, because he had already seen Zhao Yiran who was following Li Cai, how could he not understand the purpose of Li Cai's visit this time, it seemed that he couldn't wait for a moment, and couldn't wait

wants to marry Zhao Yiran.
", I think you're going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. ”
"Hey......
Li Cai rubbed his hands and smiled at Nan Kerui, with a flattering expression, he knew that Nan Kerui had guessed the purpose of his visit today, so he didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point. "You promised me, don't go back. ”
Zhao Yiran also looked at Nan Kerui with an expectant face at the moment, in fact, she didn't want to come today, it was Li Cai who pulled her here, she had been nervous along the way, although she knew that Li Cai had a good relationship with Nan Kerui, but after all, the Nan Ke family was deep-rooted, and how could they be easily involved by these nobodies, if they were stopped outside the mansion at that time, the face would be embarrassed.
But the facts frightened her, even if Zhao Yiran's father Zhao Yougang wanted to visit Shen Lao Taijun, it would have to go through layers of notifications, even if he was invited at that time, he would also be accompanied by the guards of the Nanke family.
But the two of them entered the gate of the Nanke family all the way unimpeded, and the Nightmare Army soldiers in charge of guarding not only did not stop them, but when they saw Li Cai, they also saluted respectfully and shouted 'Cai Shao', and after entering the Mirage Manor, Li Cai actually took her around and wandered around, as if entering his own mansion.
Zhao Yiran is still in a dream until now, she also believed that Li Cai and Nan Kerui have a close personal relationship a few days ago, but she didn't expect him to be so good, even in Mirage Manor has this kind of supreme treatment, although she is still a little unbelievable, but at this moment Zhao Yiran is very optimistic about the prospects of the two of them, and she is no longer worried that the family will obstruct her.
"Since I agreed to you, I will definitely help. But I still have some things to attend to, and besides, you don't have to rush that matter, if you can't wait, you can go and ask grandma to come out, and she will be very happy. Nan Kerui patted Li Cai's shoulder and said.
"Forget it, grandma is enough to worry about business, don't bother her old man with this little thing. Li Cai hurriedly waved his hand, and at the same time noticed that Nan Kerui's expression was a little wrong, so he didn't dwell on that matter anymore, and asked with concern.
"By the way, look at you, what's wrong?"
"A little thing, I quickly settled. ”
Nan Kerui smiled faintly, didn't say anything, and changed the topic. "It's hard for you to come here, if there's nothing urgent, go to grandma's place to talk to her, she mentioned you two days ago, and I think you haven't come to see her for a long time. ”
"Oh......" Li Cai nodded when he heard this. "Well, be careful, if you need anything, just ask. ”
Nan Kerui didn't speak, just patted Li Cai's shoulder, wanting to send them away first, compared to the marriage between the two of them, Xiang Nianran's matter is much more troublesome and urgent, otherwise once they settle the marriage, it will be too late to stop everything, and his first task now is to find out the inside story of the matter.
"Brother Rui, is it about Teacher Xiang......" Li Cai was about to pull Zhao Yiran away, but Zhao Yiran suddenly stopped when he walked in front of Nan Kerui and asked nonsensically.
"You?" Nan Kerui was stunned when he heard this, not understanding how Zhao Yiran knew, but he didn't hide it, nodded at her slightly, and asked curiously.
"How do you know?"
