Chapter 1247
The two First Grade Supreme Martial Artists instantly became dejected . They thought in their mind, ‘Since when have we become their followers? Furthermore, have we become followers of such low status?’
Lan Ruo’s face blackened .
‘The horse’s mane is the same as my hair? Then what am I?’
On the other hand, Chu Yang was laughing out loud . He held onto Lan Ruo’s hands intimately and the two of them went up together, while holding hands .
Seeing that the two of them came over while holding hands, the two Supreme Martial Artists from Lan Clan both gave a bitter smile . They gave instructions to the restaurant waiter to take good care of this ‘excellent horse’, before they shook their heads and followed on .
In Lan Ruo’s mind, it was as clear as a mirror . This person was Chu Yang . He was the King of Hell Chu that the Iron Cloud Empire had declared publicly to be dead . Now that he has reappeared here, furthermore staying overnight in the royal palace, it was sufficient to conclude that this King of Hell Chu was the lover of Tie Butian .
According to Lan Meixian, the Nine Tribulations Pill that Tie Butian had… was likely given by her lover . Then, King of Hell Chu… was very likely to be the Nine Tribulations Sword Master!
It was not just Lan Ruo, including the two Supreme Martial Artists behind, all three of them were crystal clear of what was happening . On the surface, this King of Hell Chu appeared to be warm and kind, like someone who was about to meet up with his loved ones whom he had not seen for very long . However, in reality, he was very dissatisfied with this invitation from Lan Clan
Otherwise, no matter how unhappy he was in his mind, he would not have said such unpleasant things before dinner, in front of all the guests .
This was obviously a disgusting act done on purpose!
Furthermore, it was an all-round disgusting act!
Besides, within his expressions, there was a sense of fearlessness . In other words, he already understood the reason for Lan Clan to be waiting here .
This was equivalent to Chu Yang covertly and indirectly admitting his identity of being the Nine Tribulations Sword Master .
Yet, this aspect had given people unlimited hope . So much so that even if Lan Ruo was near the tipping point of anger, he would not dare to say any offending words to Chu Yang!
Lan Ruo was indeed feeling frustrated within and it was considerably so .
The entire clan had spent so much effort and so much time to prepare for such a plan . Regardless of which aspect, they already had the upper hand .
However, the moment this King of Hell Chu came, he used such a disgusting method . Without saying a word, he had already made his stance clear: ‘All of you are here and I know it! Whatever that you wanted to find me for, I know it! Even your final objective, I know it too!’
‘Therefore, whatever I said is final!’

‘You are now begging me, not threatening me . You got to be clear about this . ’
Using such a disgusting and gangster-like method, firstly, it would be able to snatch the upper hand of things . Secondly, even if Lan Ruo had any grievances, he would be forced to keep it to himself .
Finally, they reached the room . The two Elders inside stood up with a smile to welcome .
It was at this moment that Chu Yang let go of Lan Ruo’s hand .
With a face full of smiles, Lan Ruo introduced, “Brother Chu, this is our Lan Clan’s 19th Generation Elder, Lan Xinhua . ” He paused for a moment before continuing with a meaningful tone, “Elder Xinhua is currently a Sixth Grade Supreme Martial Artist . ”
This was quietly giving pressure and also a form of testing out Chu Yang’s true intentions within . This was because Lan Ruo realized that he was actually unable to tell Chu Yang’s level of cultivation!
If one was to say that Chu Yang had a cultivation level higher than Lan Ruo… Lan Ruo would definitely not believe it regardless!
Therefore, with these few sentences, if Chu Yang’s cultivation was too low, it would probably be revealed subsequently!
No one within the martial world would not be sensitive to the word ‘Supreme Martial Artist’!
Chu Yang was moved . He held onto Lan Xinhua’s hands enthusiastically, shaking it continuously . “Elder Lan, your fame has long resounded in my ears like thunder . It’s my greatest honor to meet you today!”
This was the most commonly seen opening greetings in the Martial World and also the least sincere one . Now, it was being spoken by Chu Yang so eloquently and smoothly without any pauses . It seemed like there was not even the slightest bit of sincerity within .
The smile on Lan Xinhua was exceptionally brilliant . “Minister Chu, no need to be so formal . Today’s meeting with Minister Chu has made me realize how old we have become… The Martial World now is the stage for you youngsters . Ke Ke…”
Lan Ruo smiled and continued to introduce the second person; the house had five people from the Lan Clan . Every one of them was an expert who had created a reputation for themselves . In the face of Chu Yang’s impoliteness, they were not even a bit angry .
“This is our Lan Clan’s 25th Generation Edler, Lan Chengfeng . Elder Chengfeng is currently a Third Grade Supreme Martial Artist . ” Lan Ruo smiled gently, adopting a perfect classical attitude of the noble families .
“Elder Lan, your fame has long resounded in my ears like thunder . It’s my greatest honor to meet you today…” Chu Yang spoke sincerely with a clear and sonorous voice .
When he saw the previous person, he said these words . Now that he saw the next person, Chu Yang again repeated his own words!
The hidden meaning within it was too significant .

Lan Chengfeng could not help but twitch his face . He smiled and said, “Minister Chu is so accomplished at such a young age . Furthermore, you have a tall and upright heroic outlook . It is your reputation that is really resounding throughout the world . ”
Chu Yang laughed out and replied, “It’s nothing much . I’m flattered . ”
He actually did not even reject any of these compliments, but instead accepted them all .
Lan Ruo felt frustrated with no avenue to vent it . At this moment, he felt a little regretful . He should not have forced Chu Yang to come over with him; he should have used another milder method…
Chu Yang was obviously taking revenge on him .
However, there was no use for regret now .
No one would have thought that Chu Yang was so naughty and mischievous . He did not even have any regard for a Sixth Grade Supreme Martial Artist who could easily turn the whole world in chaos .
“These two are our Lan Clan’s 43rd Generation Elder, Lan Moyun and Lan Moshui . These two Elders are both First Grade Supreme Martial Artists . ” Lan Ruo was already a little weak in his introduction .
“Aya ya… The two Elder Lan!” Chu Yang stared widely with passion . Immediately after, his tone changed and he said, “Your fame has long resounded in my ears like thunder . It’s my greatest honor to meet you today…”
All five of the Lan Clan members twitched their faces together . It seemed like they really wanted to strangle Chu Yang’s neck and ask him, ‘Do you have nothing else to say other than this sentence?’
The introduction was completed . However, Chu Yang did not sit down .
It seemed as if he was still waiting for more introduction .
Everyone felt a little strange and heard King of Hell Chu say, “This… That… Brother Lan, are you not going to introduce yourself?”
“You don’t know me?” Lan Ruo suddenly wanted to faint from the shock .
Lan Ruo thought in his mind, ‘You just used the hand which you wiped your buttocks with to pull me and walk for such a long distance… now you are telling me you don’t know who I am?’
This was not Chu Yang’s fault . He was truly unaware of the identity of this person whom he had pulled to walk for a long distance .
Chu Yang only knew that his family name was Lan and he was a Young Master from the Lan Clan . However, he did not know which of the Young Master was he, amongst the many Young Masters in Lan Clan .

However, it was undeniable that within the Nine Super Clans, Chu Yang was only disgusted with the Young Masters of Lan Clan and really did not want to see them .
One was Lan Changge . The other was Lan Ruoyun .
Just two of them were already enough to give Chu Yang a really bad impression or allergy towards the Young Masters of Lan Clan .
Chu Yang said apologetically, “I would prefer if Brother Lan can introduce yourself… I am ignorant . I only know that Brother Lan was an incredible character, however, I am unaware of the limits of your capabilities . ”
“I’m Lan Ruo . ” Lan Ruo smiled gently but in his mind, he really wanted to just gulp Chu Yang down his stomach . He added, “In the current Lan Clan… I am the next in line to take over . ”
“Oh, so you are the First~~ Young Master” Chu Yang laughed out loud . He had purposely emphasized the word ‘First’ . This gave Lan Ruo a nasty feeling as if he had eaten a fly .
“Please have a seat, Minister Chu . ” Lan Xinhua smiled kindly and politely offered the seats .
Chu Yang had no traces of politeness . Although with his mouth, he said that he did not deserve it, in reality, he just sat at the front of all the seats, without any traces of politeness .
“Everyone please take a seat . Do not stand on ceremony with me . ” Chu Yang smiled as he courteously offered the seats to the others .
Everyone’s face blackened .
They thought in their mind, ‘Who is the one treating? Who is the host? Who are you little guy to act so generously?’
“I am a little embarrassed . This is Brother Lan’s treat, I should have come earlier, however at the last minute…” Minister Chu took on the spirit of ‘I must make everyone disgusted or I will never give up’ and started to narrate the experiences of his own episode of diarrhea .
The five experts from Lan Clan felt dizzy and light-headed from all the narration . They had not yet eaten… but were already full .
“Minister Chu!” Lan Ruo stood up and bowed, while putting on a serious face . He continued, “I know that our previous way of invitation must have made Minister Chu uncomfortable . Right here, I would like to offer my sincerest apology to you . I hope that Minister Chu will understand . Minister is staying at the far end of the palace . We definitely had no chance… If we were to forcefully enter or sneak in, there might be an even greater misunderstanding… I seek your understanding and be magnanimous enough to forgive us . ”
Lan Ruo was an extremely intelligent person .
Chu Yang appeared very aggressive . He took the lead in front and adopted such a disgusting attitude with no regard if he would degrade himself or not . This was basically an expression of Chu Yang’s intentions: Death is preferable to dishonor!
Very clear and very obvious .
At this moment, if Lan Ruo had not lowered his own status, then, it was impossible to carry on the discussion! Imagine, once the dishes were up on the table, Chu Yang would still carry on his narration and talk about his episode of diarrhea . There would be absolutely no chance of any progression in their discussion .
Needless to say any potential to collaborate .
Admit defeat? This was exactly what I wanted! If you did not admit defeat, then I would not know how to continue this conversation…
Chu Yang appeared a little astonished and looked at Lan Ruo, before he slowly began to smile and said, “Since Brother Lan had already said this, then, I shall not continue this topic . ”
In actual fact, Chu Yang’s heart skipped a beat . It seemed like with the sealing off of all roads in the Nine Heavens, the Lan Clan had no means of transmitting information . Hence, it would be the same for the other Nine Super Clans!
Therefore, they should not know about the death of over hundreds of Lan Clan experts in Tianji City . That means to say… right now, regardless of sides, only Chu Yang would know the entire story of what had happened . He had really gained the upper hand over things now!
In other words, were these people not all free for Chu Yang to manipulate or slaughter now?
The smile on the King of Hell Chu’s face became kind all of a sudden, giving people a comfortable feeling, like a spring breeze .
Since the misunderstanding had been cleared, the atmosphere instantly became more harmonious .
Everyone chatted and laughed, talking about the interesting stories of the Martial World . Occasionally, there would be bouts of laughter .
Not before long, the dishes arrived and the people of Lan Clan courteously invited Chu Yang for a drink . He did not refuse any of the drinks . Not before long, the atmosphere was already harmonious . Everyone had the look of regretting not meeting earlier .
The people of Lan Clan realized that as long as Chu Yang was not out to disgust people, his style of conversation was actually very interesting .
Of course, as the conversation went on further, the topic gradually changed .
“One doesn’t visit a temple without a cause . I believe Minister Chu is aware of our intentions . ” Lan Ruo smiled cordially as he filled Chu Yang’s wine cup .
“This, I would need Brother Lan to spell it out clearly . ” Chu Yang said apologetically, “I am really not that smart, if Brother Lan does not make it clear, I’m afraid I may misinterpret certain things… If I misunderstood that Lan Clan wanted to be my enemy… then that would not be nice . ”
