Chapter 277: Meeting Mother-In-Law
After a while, Jiang Lan changed to another place.
“The dragons are here again. Do you know why they’re here?”
“For the G.o.ddess, I guess. It’s been like that every time.”
“I don’t think so. Do you know that the Eighth Prince of the Dragon Race is also in Kunlun? The Dragon Race did not bring him back the last time. There must be a reason, right?”
“It can’t be, right? I’ve seen the Eighth Prince before. He often competes with us for wild animals. He doesn’t seem restricted at all.”
“I don’t think so either. He’s been working at the inn lately. That inn isn’t a place where anyone can work.”
“Then why did the Dragon Race come? The matter of the G.o.ddess has been mentioned many times, and the people who came recently are all important figures. They definitely have other motives.”
Jiang Lan didn’t continue listening.
Sometimes, these people’s a.n.a.lysis was right. The dragons were definitely not here for the G.o.ddess.
Their main target should be the Eighth Prince.
But whether or not they could bring the Eighth Prince away was another matter.
However, he was a little curious. He had heard a lot of news. Could most of it be from that spy?
Because he was knowledgeable, he was left behind.
He hadn’t been cleaned up yet.
Hopefully, he would be as lucky next time.
After all, with such a person, he could hear more when he went out to listen to the news.
Furthermore, the news should be pretty accurate.
Of course, he had his own judgment on whether it was true or not.
After a while.
Jiang Lan returned to the Ninth Summit and walked around the courtyard before returning to the Netherworld Cave.
As soon as he entered, he felt an image being transmitted near the East Road Bridge.
It was a Thousand-eyed Rune.
Then, he started to check the situation.
Naturally, there was no way to check the details, but a powerful immortal headed down the bridge.
Even the weakest among them should be a True Immortal.
In fact, there was more than one.
At this point, Jiang Lan no longer paid any attention to it. The Thousand-eyed Rune was also destroyed.
The rune would not last long. It was good to destroy it in advance.
To prevent others from noticing.
“It seems Imperial Lord Xi He has indeed sent someone to deal with it.”
Jiang Lan heaved a sigh of relief.
As for whether Imperial Lord Xi He was dissatisfied…
It shouldn’t be. The other party was targeting Kunlun, so it was normal for him to report this.
Doing so would make sure that nothing dangerous was left behind.
It was a win-win situation.
He glanced at the entrance to the Netherworld and realized that it was almost time for the eruption to occur again. There shouldn’t be any other problems this time, right?
The demons themselves were not a threat, but they had the ability to open a gap from the outside.
A hundred years had pa.s.sed. If they had a deeper understanding of how to breach the Netherworld’s Entrance…
If the person was really released…
Kunlun should be in trouble.
Hopefully, by then, he would have become a Heaven Immortal.
Jiang Lan stopped thinking about it and decided to cultivate.
Currently, he was still familiarizing himself with the perfected True Immortal Realm, so he did not need to absorb the surrounding energy.
However, when he opened the G.o.ddess Diagram, he saw Xiao Yu lying beside the Jade Pool, seemingly… at a loss.
He wanted to see if there would be any reaction if he fed her.
Unfortunately, the G.o.ddess Diagram didn’t have such a function.
The next morning.
Jiang Lan walked out of the Netherworld Cave.
He was making a trip to the Jade Pool.
However, he had just walked out of the Netherworld Cave when his master sent him a message.
The message surprised him.
Then, he learned the contents of it.
“Senior Sister and her mother want to see me?”
Jiang Lan was surprised.
This was the first time a dragon wanted to see him, but it made sense when he thought about it.
The ones who came earlier were not Xiao Yu’s parent.
This time, it was her mother. It was not too much for her to meet her daughter’s fiancé.
But…
Was this marriage really necessary?
Jiang Lan didn’t know. He needed to ask his master.
“Did Xiao Yu feel uneasy last night because of this?” Jiang Lan had an idea.
There was a certain possibility.
After a while.
At the peak of the Ninth Summit.
“Around noon.” Mo Zhengdong looked at Jiang Lan.
“There’s no need to pay too much attention to it or think that the Dragon Race is impressive. In Kunlun, no matter who the other party is, they would have to lay low.”
“I feel like Master is talking about me,” Jiang Lan thought.
“Master, is it really just a meeting?” Jiang Lan tried to ask.
Logically speaking, if there was anything else, his master would know.
“Just treat it as a normal meeting.” Mo Zhengdong smiled.
“There won’t be any danger. Just meet her normally. If there are any questions that are difficult to answer, you can just decide and answer yourself. Don’t worry too much about anything else.”
Jiang Lan had his own opinions. He had always known that.
Apart from some necessary reminders, he could rarely change Jiang Lan’s mind.
Of course, the engagement was not an option.
“Disciple understands.” Jiang Lan nodded.
…
Back in the courtyard, Jiang Lan wanted to water the vegetative egg.
But he didn’t bring it out, so he couldn’t water it.
He sat in the courtyard and pondered.
“Master said that I should meet the other party normally. This means that Xiao Yu’s mother does indeed have a motive.”
“It’s just that there’s no danger. The problems involved shouldn’t be too big.”
After thinking for a while, he still could not think of anything specific.
The limit was related to the Eighth Prince.
Then, he stopped thinking about it. He would think about it when the time came.
He would just answer the questions posed to him normally and not get involved in anything else.
Woos.h.!.+
As he was thinking, he suddenly heard the sound of air being torn apart.
Looking up, it was Xiao Yu riding on a sword.
She looked a little anxious.
“Junior Brother, something bad has happened.”
Before the person arrived, her voice arrived first.
Bang!
Xiao Yu landed on the ground, unable to control herself as she rushed towards Jiang Lan.
She crashed into Jiang Lan with a bang.
“Ouch! It hurts.”
Xiao Yu covered her forehead and cried out in pain.
Jiang Lan lowered his head and looked at the half-crouched Xiao Yu. He didn’t feel any pain.
Xiao Yu felt a little weak.
Before he could speak, Xiao Yu jumped up and looked at Jiang Lan.
“Junior Brother, something bad has happened.”
Was her master captured?
At this moment, Xiao Yu’s hair was a little messy. Jiang Lan reached out to help her smooth it out and said.
“What happened?”
Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan’s hand that was retracted and was slightly surprised.
Then, she waved her hair and smiled.
“Junior Brother, does my long hair look good?”
‘True dragons were bald, right?’
“It’s very beautiful.” Jiang Lan nodded in agreement. Then, he asked the same question again.
“Senior Sister, what are you talking about?”
“I just received news that Mother wishes to see you. I thought that she just wanted to see me yesterday.” Xiao Yu explained immediately.
Jiang Lan was silent.
So she was in that state yesterday night because her mother wanted to see her.
It had been many years since she had seen his biological mother, so it was understandable that she was indeed a little hesitant and uneasy.
“Am I going with Senior Sister later?” Jiang Lan asked.
“En.” Xiao Yu nodded. Then, she looked at Jiang Lan and said seriously.
“Is Junior Brother nervous?”
“A little.” Jiang Lan nodded slightly.
He didn’t really mind it, but he was worried that the other party had some motives.
“Then, Junior Brother, just stay by my side. I’ll protect you.” Xiao Yu patted her chest as she spoke.
Jiang Lan didn’t care about the arrogant little dragon.
“Senior Sister, you should stay by my side. I’ll protect you.”
“Because Junior Brother looks older and is not easy to bully?” Xiao Yu tried asking.
He was the younger one. Jiang Lan reminded her in his heart.
