The journey back was silent, until Baobao finally spoke: "That girl just broke through, she couldn't control her aura, it was too obvious." Xu Xiang and his sons, accustomed to her, understood Baobao's Sichuan dialect.
Xu San then analyzed: "And even without her ability, she's very strong. She faced the Three Maniacs alone, and although she was a bit injured, her strength might not be weaker than ours."
Xu Xiang also warned his two sons at this point: "In the future, have less contact with Xia He. I almost fell for it too. Just as A-Wu said, she probably wasn't actively releasing her ability just now. If she were to actively release her ability, all of us, except A-Wu, would be wiped out."
Xu San felt something was off when he heard this: "The Three Maniacs seem much stronger than we imagined, otherwise they wouldn't have injured Xia He in such a short time."
The three father and sons walked on, not noticing anything amiss. Only Baobao saw a strikingly handsome young man appear in front of them, blocking their path. She had seen a photo of this man before; he was Lan Luo, the owner of the villa they had just visited.
Baobao, with a blank expression, asked: "Why are you blocking us?" Although she felt this man was very powerful, she didn't sense any malice from him.
Lan Luo smiled and looked at Baobao, saying: "Sister Baobao, do you want to know about your origins?"
Upon hearing this, Baobao instantly lost her composure. She had been searching for her origins for a long time, but had never found any news. Moreover, Gou Wa'er had already expended too much effort to protect her, and she didn't want to trouble Gou Wa'er anymore.
Baobao then rushed in front of Lan Luo, grabbing his arm and saying: "Tell me quickly." She didn't doubt the truth of Lan Luo's words at all.
Lan Luo saw this and said: "Let me borrow the Old Farmer's Art to take a look." He also seized the opportunity to propose a condition.
Baobao shook her head when she heard this, saying: "That won't do, I promised someone else."
"Zhang Huaiyi, he's just using you to protect his grandson, and he won't even tell you about your origins. He just wants you to work for free." Lan Luo looked down on Zhang Huaiyi's schemes. To deceive such a pure girl like Baobao, and this person was even his niece.
Baobao looked at Lan Luo in disbelief: "How do you know that?"
Lan Luo didn't answer her question, only asking Baobao: "Will you exchange?"
Baobao thought for a moment, then said: "Don't trick me, okay? If I find out you're tricking me, I'll bury you alive."
After speaking, Baobao directly bumped her head against Lan Luo's forehead. The cultivation method of Qi Body Source appeared in Lan Luo's mind at that moment. Lan Luo finally obtained the first of the Eight Miraculous Techniques he desired: Qi Body Source.
After the transmission was complete, Baobao said: "You can tell me now."
"Your name is Feng Baobao, and your father might be named Feng Yao. You might not be too familiar with this name, but you should have heard the name Wu Gensheng, right? In fact, during the Thirty-Six Sworn Brothers' alliance, he revealed his origins to everyone. His real name was Feng Yao. His birth mother died when he was born, and he was picked up and raised by a Taoist priest named Feng. Because Wu Gensheng opened his eyes as soon as he was born, and his eyes were bright and spirited, the Taoist priest named him Feng Yao based on his surname. Later, Wu Gensheng also told everyone that his wife had died young, leaving only his daughter." Lan Luo roughly guessed Baobao's identity, after all, the abilities on Baobao were like a collection of the Eight Miraculous Techniques.
"You mean my old man is Wu Gensheng?" Baobao remembered who Wu Gensheng was at this moment, the leader of the Thirty-Six Thieves, the former sect master of Quanshen, known as "Wu Gensheng."
Lan Luo patiently explained: "You've also felt the anomalies on your body, right? Immortality, self-healing from injuries, even fatal ones. It's like endless Qi, breathing with your body, and some other things. But these abilities each correspond to one of the Eight Miraculous Techniques. Immortality is the Six Treasures Immortal Thief, not dying from injury is the Dual Handed, and the endless Qi is the Old Farmer's Art you just passed to me, which others call Qi Body Source. You also have the ability to observe Qi, which is the ability of the Wind Hou Qi Men."
After listening to Lan Luo's explanation, Baobao knew that she was most likely Feng Yao's daughter. She looked at the attractive man in front of her again. He always had an aura that drew her closer to him. Gou Wa'er said this was the ability of the Flesh-Stopping Technique. She had felt Xia He's before, and it had no effect on her at all, but Lan Luo's kept affecting her.
When she came back to her senses, Baobao, swallowing, found that they were still standing in the same spot, walking. Just as she was about to say something to Lan Luo, she realized that Lan Luo was no longer there, just like before, as if nothing had happened. Xu Xiang was still lecturing Xu San and Xu Si along the way.
Baobao suddenly said to Xu Xiang: "Gou Wa'er, do you know Feng Yao?" Xu Xiang was the most trustworthy person to Baobao in this world, so Baobao was willing to share her biggest secret with him.
Xu Xiang thought for a moment and said: "I don't know, that name sounds somewhat familiar."
"Wu Gensheng." Baobao cautiously reminded him at this moment.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiang seemed to suddenly remember something and quickly covered Baobao's mouth, saying: "A-Wu, no matter who asks you in the future, you must not say that name. Also, can you tell me who told you about Feng Yao just now?"
Baobao, with her natural dullness, said: "It was that big star, Lan Luo."
"When did you meet him?" Xu Xiang was very curious at this moment when Baobao had talked to Lan Luo, as they hadn't felt anything at all.
The naive Baobao interjected: "Just now, didn't you feel anything at all?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiang's heart was filled with horror. Xu San and Xu Si beside him were no better off. The three exchanged glances, seeing fear in each other's eyes. Fortunately, they hadn't made a move earlier, otherwise, they would have been completely wiped out, and no one would have known. Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on their backs, and they were all filled with lingering fear.
"What did he tell you?" Xu Xiang was also very curious what Lan Luo was really after on Baobao's body.
Baobao pointed a finger at her lips and said: "He wanted Zhang Huaiyi's Old Farmer's Art, nothing else."
Xu Xiang also slapped his forehead. As soon as he heard that name, he knew that Lan Luo must have obtained Qi Body Source. In this world of the Outcasts, if it wasn't one of the Eight Miraculous Techniques, then most other abilities had a lineage.
Why did they initially define those people as thieves? Besides their powerful abilities that greatly restrained these traditional families, part of the reason was that by defining them as thieves, they could freely plunder the Eight Miraculous Techniques they created.
Of course, another part of the reason was indeed that they were not clean, but there are many unclean things in this world. Why, after so many years, was there only one incident, the Jia-Shen Rebellion, that shocked the Outcast world? It was still caused by greed. If people knew Baobao's origins, her best outcome might be to appear on some unknown experimental table.
