Chapter 261 - I’ll Protect Senior Sister’s Smile

The western branch of the Witchcloud Mountain Range.

A group of demons appeared here.

The leader was a stone titan.

The demons here were all as hard as rocks, and their skin was so thick that even swords and sabers couldn’t hurt them.

“Ba Country’s logistical support camp should be around here.”

The stone titan held a wooden tablet in his hand.

There was a blurry figure engraved on the wooden tablet. His punching motion was powerful and unstoppable.

“The person who carved the wooden tablet should be nearby.”

At that moment, a boorish man came to the stone giant’s side and said respectfully.

“Commander, should we attack now?”

“We have two missions.” The stone titan’s voice was rather gloomy.

“Cause a disruption to the logistical support of Ba Country and kill the person who carved the wooden tablet.”

Bang!

He crushed the wooden tablet.

“Is the Ghost Suppressing Stone damaged?”

“No, I’ve checked many times. Nothing will go wrong.”

“This trip will be of great significance to the front line. Nothing must go wrong. Ba Country is lacking in intelligence. As long as we find where they are and there are no internal problems, we can definitely complete the missions. Don’t let your guard down, go all out.”

“The commander is wise.”

“Let’s go.” The stone titan’s deep voice reached everyone’s ears.

Then, the group of people disappeared into the forest and began to search for the logistical support camp of Ba Country.

This mission was very important.

They had to complete the mission as soon as possible and not delay any longer.

…

…

Jiang Lan left the inn.

He was here to pay a visit to the Eighth Prince on behalf of Xiao Yu.

There was no need to stay for long.

Furthermore, he already knew what he wanted to know.

It was possible that the Eighth Prince had also obtained a fortuitous opportunity. Although it was only a wisp, it was much better than the others.

An innate immortal carried the fate of the entire Dragon Race. Perhaps it would be a huge problem in the future.

Furthermore, killing the person with the fortuitous opportunity could allow the opportunity to return to the Demon Race.

This matter was very complicated.

But Kunlun was indeed ahead of everyone.

It was hard to tell what was going on.

Such a thing might not even be found in ancient books.

He decided to take some time and read up more next time. He would wait a few more years.

Jiang Lan didn’t think about this anymore. He walked towards Kunlun step by step and returned to the Ninth Summit to continue cultivating.

When he was walking in the forest at the bottom of the Ninth Summit, he suddenly thought of something and rode his sword towards the Jade Pool.

He forgot to tell his Senior Sister that he had already left Kunlun Temple.

His speed wasn’t fast, and he moved towards the Jade Pool on his sword.

Recently, there had been a lot of things that he couldn’t handle in peace.

He needed to calm down.

Not long after, he suddenly saw someone walking towards him with his back facing the setting sun.

The moment Jiang Lan saw the figure, he stopped and waited for her to arrive.

She wore a smile on her face and had long green hair.

With her back facing the setting sun, she seemed to be wearing a red veil.

She looked stunning.

“Junior Brother.” Xiao Yu leaped into the air and stood in front of Jiang Lan, smiling.

“Junior Brother, why are you looking for me again?”

It was Xiao Yu.

“I came to tell Senior Sister that I’ve come out from the Kunlun Temple,” Jiang Lan said softly.

“Heh, Junior Brother, step back a little.” Xiao Yu spoke.

Jiang Lan took a few steps back.

Xiao Yu:”…”

“Junior Brother, I meant to move your feet back a bit.” Xiao Yu came to Jiang Lan’s side and said.

Jiang Lan was puzzled. He took a step back and stood behind the sword.

At this moment, Xiao Yu landed on Jiang Lan’s sword with a smile.

Right in front of Jiang Lan.

“Alright, Junior Brother, let’s fly.” Xiao Yu smiled happily and rode her sword towards the Ninth Summit.

Jiang Lan: “…”

His Senior Sister was a little too fast.

He had been in the sect for many years, and it was very rare for him to be fast on his sword because it was too obvious.

Fortunately, there was no one around.

Otherwise…

Jiang Lan looked at the smaller Senior Sister Ao.

He was probably the one who had let down the Goddess, and his reputation would be countless times worse than before.

“Junior Brother, let me teach you a powerful sword kinesis technique.” Xiao Yu turned around and smiled at Jiang Lan.

“Alright.” Jiang Lan nodded.

He didn’t know much about sword kinesis because he normally used the Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel.

Woosh!

Xiao Yu brought Jiang Lan to the Ninth Summit on his sword.

Whoosh!

Just as he found the feeling.

Xiao Yu stopped.

They had arrived at the Ninth Summit.

“The Jade Pool is so close to the Ninth Summit?” Xiao Yu was surprised.

“It felt like it took me a long time to return to the Third Summit on my sword last time.”

Xiao Yu turned around and glanced at Jiang Lan.

“Is it because of Junior Brother?”

“Senior sister, why do you say that?” Jiang Lan asked.

Xiao Yu raised her right hand and shook it.

“Because my heart is with Junior Brother.”

Jiang Lan was a little surprised when he heard this. Then, he returned to normal.

“Maybe it’s because it’s two-way.”

As he spoke, Jiang Lan stopped on his sword.

Xiao Yu smiled.

Then she jumped down and headed straight for the courtyard.

“Junior Brother, you’ve been in the temple for so long. Have the plants withered?”

“Their vitality is very tenacious.” Jiang Lan withdrew his sword and landed beside Xiao Yu.

The two of them walked towards the courtyard.

“The Eighth Prince is at the old inn. He said he was being hunted by demons…” Jiang Lan briefly explained the situation.

He reported his safety.

Xiao Yu cared about her brother.

“Are we going out?” Jiang Lan asked.

Xiao Yu shook her head gently and whispered,

“I have to look normal when I go out. Even if I go, I don’t know what to talk about. As long as he’s alright, it’s fine. However, isn’t it bad not to go pay him a visit?”

Jiang Lan could feel that Xiaoyu wanted to show her concern but didn’t know what to do.

He definitely could not preach.

After all, the other person was a True Immortal while Xiao Yu was only at the Void Refinement Realm.

Her personality was also a little weak.

“I’ll accompany Senior Sister out,” Jiang Lan said.

Although the Eighth Prince would not be overbearing, Xiao Yu was still unsure.

It should be much better with someone accompanying her.

Xiao Yu leaned on the table and looked at Jiang Lan. Her voice was filled with smiles.

“Junior Brother, I realize that you treat me especially well.”

Jiang Lan didn’t reply. Xiao Yu treated him even better.

What he did was insignificant.

“When are we leaving?” Xiao Yu didn’t need Jiang Lan to reply.

“Tomorrow. The Eighth Prince might be resting now,” Jiang Lan replied after some thought.

At this time, the sun had already set. The Eighth Prince really needed to rest from his injuries.

“Then I’ll accompany you tonight. Tomorrow, we’ll leave the mountain together.” Xiao Yu smiled.

“Alright.” Jiang Lan nodded slightly.

Since Xiao Yu had just arrived, he naturally could not chase her back.

Whoosh!

Xiao Yu jumped onto the roof and patted the side.

“Here, junior brother.”

Jiang Lan took a glance and moved his lower body. He didn’t make any movements and appeared beside Xiao Yu before sitting down.

“Junior Brother, you can move a little bit more obviously. You feel like an old man,” Xiao Yu suggested.

He was in fact not young anymore, Jiang Lan thought.

Then, he said softly.

“It’s because Senior Sister is younger.”

“Of course.” Xiao Yu sat beside Jiang Lan and looked at the sky.

“This way, I can make Junior Brother younger too.”

“Yes, then it’s good that Senior Sister is still young. I can protect Senior Sister well.” Jiang Lan said softly.

“Now is the time for me to protect you, Junior Brother. I’m a bit stronger than you,” Xiao Yu said confidently.

Jiang Lan looked at Xiao Yu. His voice was gentle but serious.

“I mean, I’ll protect Senior Sister’s smile.”
