Chapter 218: Junior Brother, Do You Want To Try Turning Smaller?
Xiao Yu was sleeping.
This was Jiang Lan’s first time seeing her sleep.
He sat opposite Xiao Yu and watched her quietly. He did not make a single sound or move.
The morning glow was both magnificent and dazzling.
However, Jiang Lan did not look at it. Perhaps Xiaoyu looked better than these things.
Or perhaps it was because he had not seen how Xiao Yu slept before which made him intrigued.
At this time, Jiang Lan saw Xiao Yu’s brows turn into a frown.
“She’s about to wake up.”
Jiang Lan muttered to himself and didn’t look away.
He was waiting for Xiao Yu to wake up.
“En?”
Xiao Yu frowned and slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were a little blurry, but she immediately realized that there was someone opposite her.
She raised her head slightly and rested her chin on her arm as she looked at the person opposite her.
This person was naturally Jiang Lan.
She was very familiar with Jiang Lan’s scent.
She probably didn’t wake up immediately because she didn’t smell an unfamiliar scent.
“Senior Sister is awake?” Jiang Lan’s voice sounded.
His voice was stable and gentle.
It would not disturb anyone who had just woken up.
“Junior Brother.” Xiao Yu’s eyes were slightly dazed.
“You lied to me. You didn’t keep your word.”
Xiao Yu sounded a little angry and unhappy.
But it was very faint and seemed like a joke.
Jiang Lan was stunned.
“I broke a promise?”
“You’ve forgotten all about it,” Xiao Yu said, looking crestfallen.
Jiang Lan: “…”
After a moment of silence, he said.
“Is it because of the Jade Pool’s soil?”
He did say that he would check it out in a few days.
But…
He indeed didn’t hold true to that.
Hearing this, Xiao Yu was disappointed.
“My flowers have withered again. They lasted for seven days. If you went, perhaps they could have lasted for eight days.”
“Is there a difference?” Jiang Lan asked.
“Yes.” Xiao Yu stood up and looked at Jiang Lan.
“They can tell that we’ve tried if you went.”
Senior Sister seemed to be sensitive in the wrong place.
However, Jiang Lan didn’t say anything. If there was a possibility of him going into seclusion in the future, he had to inform Xiaoyu.
Perhaps Xiao Yu had been waiting for him for the past few days.
In the end, he did not come out in time.
“I—”
“I?”
Xiao Yu tilted her head and looked at Jiang Lan curiously, not understanding what Jiang Lan wanted to say.
Jiang Lan hesitated for a moment before speaking.
“I didn’t forget about it on purpose.”
Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment. She looked at Jiang Lan with a beautiful smile.
“I know.”
Xiao Yu, who was originally standing up, sat down again.
Jiang Lan spoke again.
“Senior Sister, do you know if it’s time for the challenge matches?”
He had just woken up and did not know the exact time.
Splash!
Xiao Yu stood up once again as though she had just recalled this matter.
“I forgot to mention that they’ve already reached the match of the Eighth Summit today. Tomorrow will be the day the Dragon Race challenges you, Junior Brother.”
Jiang Lan: “…”
These words reminded him of what his Martial Aunt Miaoyue of the Fifth Summit and Senior Lu Jian had said many years ago.
They said that he was getting engaged tomorrow.
They all said the appointed date was just a day away.
His timing seemed to coincide pretty well with the events every time he came out of seclusion.
So this was the reason why no one was cultivating on the Eighth Summit today.
“Junior Brother, hurry up and leave. They arranged to meet very early. They might have already started fighting by now,” Xiao Yu said hurriedly.
Jiang Lan had missed the first seven battles. If he did not see this one, it meant that he would not have seen a single battle between immortals.
Of course, she had recorded it.
“The First Summit lost?”
On the way, Jiang Lan roughly understood the situation of the previous few days.
Lin An of the First Summit took the helm and was defeated.
Bei Fang of the Second Summit took up the second battle and barely won.
The Third Summit’s Hong Luan took up the position for the third battle and was defeated.
The Fourth Summit…
“Yes, the First Summit has lost. The other party sent a very strong dragon.” Xiao Yu continued.
“Currently, out of seven battles, Kunlun has four losses and three victories. If Senior Brother Lu Jian wins, that would make it four wins and four losses. Tomorrow will be the most important battle.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Yu turned to look at Jiang Lan. She was trying to see if Jiang Lan was nervous.
But she saw nothing.
Her Junior Brother was as calm as ever. There was no obvious emotion on his face.
It had been like this for years.
“Junior Brother, do you know how to be happy?” Xiao Yu asked.
Jiang Lan: “…”
The topic had jumped again.
“Senior Sister, why do you say that?” Jiang Lan knew that they should have arrived when he saw that there were more people ahead.
However, Xiao Yu currently had her 16 years old look so no one would notice her.
Although she was pure and beautiful, she was not as dazzling as she usually was.
Pure and beautiful girls were not uncommon in Kunlun.
On the other hand, Jiang Lan was only an ordinary disciple, and he didn’t have that kind of dazzling brilliance.
Therefore, no one paid attention to them as they walked.
“After knowing you for two hundred and fifty years, I rarely see you smile so happily.” Xiao Yu thought for a while before trying to say.
“Junior Brother, do you want to give it a try?”
Jiang Lan: “…”
Not everyone could turn smaller.
“We’re here. Let’s take a look at the situation first.” Jiang Lan skipped Xiao Yu’s topic.
However, if they really reached a draw in the end, he would have to bear quite a bit of pressure in the final battle.
The pressure was small.
It was mainly because the attention would be much higher.
But no one in Kunlun would want Lu Jian to lose.
Moreover, the possibility of Lu Jian losing was not high.
Kunlun had a hidden understanding that the First and Eighth Summits were the strongest.
They were the strongest in terms of combat strength.
Therefore, he was a little surprised that the First Summit had lost.
It seemed like the Dragon Race also knew of this and hence used their strongest contestants to fight against Kunlun’s two strongest summits.
Now that the First Summit was defeated, it should not be easy for the Eighth Summit either.
The representative of the Eighth Summit was Lu Jian. Everyone knew without asking.
Lu Jian was not the strongest disciple of the Eighth Summit, but he was definitely the most outstanding and favored disciple of the Eighth Summit.
Lu Jian was currently in the middle of the square of the Eighth Summit, and there were countless spectating disciples around.
Some were flying on swords, some were standing on the edge of the square, and some were even standing in the forest.
Jiang Lan and Xiao Yu stood at the edge of the square, surrounded by disciples with lower cultivation levels.
These disciples were probably disciples that had entered the sect in the past few decades.
“Senior Brother Lu Jian’s opponent seems to be a dragoness.”
A voice suddenly sounded.
Jiang Lan looked over and saw that it was really a female dragon.
It was a beautiful woman wearing cyan soft armor and holding a spear. She had a pair of dragon horns on her long hair.
She looked valiant and heroic.
She was a perfected True Immortal who had suppressed her cultivation to the mid-stage True Immortal Realm.
Lu Jian was currently a mid-stage True Immortal.
It would still take some time before he could transcend to become a Heaven Immortal.
However, the fact that the other party suppressed her cultivation meant that she had the advantage. It was no wonder that the First Summit lost.
They probably used the same tactic.
Was there no stronger disciple in Kunlun?
There were definitely some, but they were all letting the more outstanding disciples accept the challenge.
“Senior Sister knows that dragoness?” Jiang Lan asked Xiaoyu.
Xiao Yu shook her head.
“I don’t know her. I only know the Eighth Prince among the younger generation who has come this time. And we had just met. ”
That was her younger brother. She had to know him.
As for the others, she knew Ao Ye.
He came to Kunlun most frequently and hence met with her more often. They had more or less exchanged a few words.
“It’s about to begin. I wonder if Senior Brother Lu can win.”
Everyone was focused on this.
No one underestimated the dragoness.
They had seen the power of the Dragon Race for seven days, so they could tell.
After all, not many people knew who suppressed their cultivation.
