Ao Man’s words surprised the youth.
Jiang Lan was also surprised.
No one had ever said such words to him. Most people in Kunlun felt that he was not worthy of the Goddess.
They even felt that the Goddess would despise him.
The Eighth Prince’s words were a first for him.
“Isn’t that a little rough?” The young man didn’t dare to believe it.
He had a bad feeling about this.
.
He then looked at Jiang Lan.
“Don’t look at me.”
Jiang Lan looked at the youth and knew that he would definitely ask him.
As expected, the young man asked directly.
“Did Big Brother also get a fiancée like this?”
After a moment of silence, Jiang Lan spoke softly.
“She doesn’t hate me.”
Xiao Yu did not hate him, so they had quite a lot of possibilities regarding the future.
There was no need for one party to have the ability to suppress the other. If Xiao Yu hated him, she might even look down on him.
It was easier for him.
He would suppress his cultivation on the surface and delay the marriage. Then, he would be invincible in Kunlun and annul the engagement.
This way, everyone could be happy and go about doing their own things.
But…
At present, there was no possibility of breaking off the engagement.
He never shied away from responsibility.
It was the same for Master and Xiao Yu.
The young man fell into deep thought.
“Young lad, your indecisiveness is useless.” Ao Man persuaded seriously.
“If you want to marry the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race, you have to be strong enough. They are arrogant. When you have Wutong Mountain beneath your feet, would she not dare to marry you then?
However, I suggest that before you go to challenge Mount Wutong, you should first practice your escape technique. If you somehow fail, you can still escape and make a comeback in the future. Don’t die in there.”
“But isn’t this forcing Hong Ya?” The young man shook his head and looked unwilling.
“Forcefully prying open a sesame seed when it’s not ripe is not delicious. But you will be happy.” Ao Man said earnestly.
“Young man, listen to me. It will work.”
“Which race is Big Brother’s fiancée from?” The youth turned to look at Jiang Lan.
“Dragon Race,” Jiang Lan answered.
There was no need to hide this.
“Big Brother is also trampling on the Dragon Race?” The youth looked at Jiang Lan in astonishment.
Then, he looked at Ao Man.
This one was also a dragon.
Ao Man: “…”
Humans were really despicable. He actually couldn’t refute the other party.
Jiang Lan naturally had no way of answering such a question.
At present, he did not make an enemy of the Dragon Race, and the Dragon Race had never secretly attacked him.
But if necessary, he would trample the dragons under their feet.
But it would take a long time.
It would need to wait till the day he became invincible.
After some thought, Jiang Lan said.
“It’s always right to be stronger.”
Regardless of whether it was the situation one was in or the undercurrents of the world, as long as they were stronger, they would have a higher chance of surviving the tribulation.
The youth seemed to come to a realization.
“Then I’ll work hard to become stronger.”
However, he soon had a new problem.
“How can I be considered strong?”
“Defeating your grandfather should be enough.” Jiang Lan tried.
He had no idea what the innkeeper’s cultivation was.
Whether it was his master or the inn owner, he couldn’t see through their cultivation.
The young man fell into a dilemma. He could only be free after defeating this Big Brother. He could only do whatever he wanted after defeating him.
Only by defeating his grandfather would he be able to win Hong Yafang’s heart and intimidate the Heavenly Feather Phoenix Race.
Two goals.
“I understand.” The youth nodded heavily.
When the time came, he would be married when he grew up.
Although Ao Man didn’t know what kind of expert the innkeeper was, since his brother-in-law had said so, then he should be extraordinary.
However, there should be a limit to what an innkeeper could do, right?
He did not understand.
He decided to just have a drink first.
“Young man, let’s drink tea in place of wine.”
“I’ll get a cup.”
Jiang Lan didn’t care about these two people. As long as it didn’t affect him, it didn’t matter.
He closed his eyes slowly, keeping his guard up, making sure to react correctly at any moment.
At that moment, he was at the connecting point between the physical inn and spiritual inn, looking at the structure of the inn.
Using his own insights to experiment over and over again didn’t shake the spiritual inn. He only tried to see if it could connect.
Some of them were similar, but some were not what he had expected.
After trying repeatedly, he realized where he had gone wrong.
After a long time, he felt someone pushing open the door of the spiritual inn.
It was a young man and a young girl.
He ignored them.
After the two of them stopped, Jiang Lan also stopped the verification process.
Instead, he focused on comprehending it.
He was waiting for the boss to return.
However, what Ao Ye said reminded him of something.
None of the other factions had an accurate motive for making a move.
It was an act of confusion.
The ones with direct objectives were the Heavenly Human Race, but the exact details were unknown.
Kunlun had indeed not done anything. However, there were still some things done.
There was an abnormally large number of spies in Kunlun.
Furthermore, the Second Summit would also gather all the spies and clean them up. This was somewhat confusing, but what he really could not understand was…
Why did a Golden Core spy require two summit leaders to clean up?
It was a truly confusing act.
He just didn’t know if this confusing behavior was the same as what Ao Ye said.
Jiang Lan didn’t think too much about it. His heart was calm like the surface of a calm lake.
This calmness lasted for some time before he opened his eyes.
This was because he was once again pulled into the spiritual inn.
When he opened his eyes, he didn’t see the Eighth Prince. He had probably left.
After receiving the boss’s good wine, Jiang Lan turned around and left.
He didn’t see the teenager before he left. Otherwise, he should have been able to get more peanuts.
He walked all the way to the Ninth Summit. He did not choose to ride on his sword. Instead, he walked.
It was one thing to easily offend some people on a sword, but the main thing was that most of the people walking now did not know him.
It would not attract the attention of others.
On the way, Jiang Lan met some people, but no one cared about him.
He did not care about the others either.
However, some conversations would reach his ears.
“Are you hurt?”
“I went to the Ice Cicada Forest. The ice cicadas seemed to have become much more violent. I was injured and it felt eerie there.”
“We just cleared the intruders a while ago. Perhaps the murderous aura is a little strong.”
“I hope so. But I heard from some Senior Brothers that the situation in the Grand Desolate World is a bit tense. Sooner or later, we will encounter some danger.”
“We just joined the sect not long ago. It’s very difficult for us to come into contact with it even if we wanted to. We’re too weak.”
“True. But we’d better report back about the ice cicadas when we get back.”
Jiang Lan didn’t pay any special attention to the conversation. His steps were a bit faster than these people, so he soon couldn’t hear their conversation anymore.

…
Jade Pool.
Under the peach tree.
Ao Longyu sat under the tree and silently watched the falling peach blossoms.

This was the peach tree that her junior brother had helped her plant.
However, she also played a part in growing this tree.
It was her dragon roar that cured the peach tree.
Of course, the main credit belonged to her Junior Brother.
She always remembered this.
“Is Junior Sister not here yet?”
Ao Longyu retracted her gaze and looked outside the Jade Pool.
She was unable to see Junior Sister Siya at the Third Summit today, so she decided to wait for her at the Jade Pool.
She wanted to learn from her mistake.
Previously, she had done exactly as Junior Sister Siya said, but her Junior Brother did not react at all.
It was far from what her Junior Sister had said.
There should be a problem with what she did.
Otherwise, it was because her Junior Brother was special.
