Chapter 169 - Do You Like Jiang Lan?

Ao Longyu looked at Lin Siya and remained silent.

However, Lin Siya continued.

“Previously, I found out from a Junior Sister that the Fourth Summit had a lecture that talked about the Dao of pill refinement. I didn’t go to listen at that time. Senior Sister should have already watched all the lectures. Do you still remember about it?”

Ao Longyu shook her head and said softly.

“I don’t remember it.”

“Huh?” Lin Siya looked at Ao Longyu and felt that something was amiss.

Then, she tried asking again.

“Senior Sister, do you remember that when I gave you the recording Dharma treasure, I mentioned about Master giving a lecture meant for those at the Essence Soul Realm. Did Senior Sister watch that part?”

Ao Longyu’s calm expression remained unchanged as she lowered her brows and said.

“I have forgotten what was recorded.”

“Senior Sister, did you even watch them?” Lin Siya asked.

Ao Longyu glanced at Lin Siya without saying anything.

“You asked me to prepare it even though you didn’t look at it. Senior Sister, did you give it to the Junior Brother of the Ninth Summit?” Lin Siya tried to ask.

Although she found it unbelievable, she was still curious.

The engagement had spread like wildfire before.

She had heard a lot about it.

Some said that the Goddess definitely objected to the marriage and that she would definitely hate her fiancé from the Ninth Summit.

A mere disciple of the Ninth Summit might not be considered useless, but in front of the Goddess, he was nothing.

How could such a person be worthy of the Goddess?

If the disciple of the Ninth Summit had any sense of shame, he would have definitely felt inferior.

On the other hand, the Goddess was born with a noble status and she would definitely look down on the disciple of the Ninth Summit. It was inevitable that she would hate her fiancé.

In short, there were all sorts of theories about the relationship between the two.

She did not dare to ask.

She was afraid that she would hurt her Senior Sister.

However, her Senior Sister had previously asked her to record the lectures held on the various summits.

Her Senior Sister had even spent a fortune on it.

She had originally thought that it was meant for her Senior Sister’s own reference, but now it seemed that her Senior Sister didn’t even take a look at what was inside at all.

If Senior Sister did not watch was inside, then who would it be?

Before her Senior Sister became the Goddess, she had no friends.

It was also because of the mystic realm that she had a much better relationship with her Senior Sister.

Therefore, it was impossible for Senior Sister to prepare these things for them.

Thus, there was only one possibility.

The Junior Brother of the Ninth Summit.

Ao Longyu only nodded gently in response to Lin Siya’s question.

She had no intention of hiding it.

If she didn’t ask her, she wouldn’t tell her. If she did, she would admit it.

Then, she added.

“It’s a deal. He helped me to embed his Dragon Slaying Sword’s Sword Intent on my sword.”

Lin Siya did not speak for a moment. A dragon asking someone to embed the Dragon Slaying Sword’s Sword Intent?

Was it really that simple?

Lin Siya didn’t care about this. She was curious.

“Senior Sister, how do you feel about the Junior Brother of the Ninth Summit?”

“I don’t hate him,” said Ao Longyu directly.

She never hated Jiang Lan.

Lin Siya hesitated and changed her method of asking.

“Senior Sister, do you like the Junior Brother of the Ninth Summit?”

Ao Longyu moved slightly and glanced at Lin Siya without answering.

She could not answer this question.

“Let’s change the question. Does Senior Sister like Senior Zhou Xu from the First Summit?” Lin Siya asked.

“I don’t know who he is.”

“And what if you do?”

“I won’t like him.”

“I have understood it.”

Ao Longyu looked at Lin Siya, not understanding what her Junior Sister had understood.

She didn’t say anything much and had just told her the truth.

“Senior Sister is waiting to fall in love with the Junior Brother of the Ninth Summit.” Lin Siya hesitated before saying.

“Or perhaps, Senior Sister is waiting for the Junior Brother of the Ninth Summit to fall in love with you.”

Ao Longyu looked at Lin Siya in surprise.

Love?

She actually did not understand such feelings or anything related to such a thing.

She did not know if her Junior Sister was right.

She only knew that with the engagement, there would be a lot of connections between them. She hoped that they could develop in a good way.

After interacting with Jiang Lan for a long time, she discovered that there was nothing bad about this Junior Brother of hers.

They had always gotten along well.

Her Junior Brother was indeed a little antisocial, but he was not as cold as he looked.

All good intentions were reciprocated.

She felt that they would get along well in the future.

But like…

She really did not understand.

Perhaps she would understand one day, but she did not know when.

If there was, it would only be with Junior Brother Jiang Lan.

…

…

On the West Continent Mountain Range, the originally broken mountainous region had already been covered by some vegetation.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Several dozen meters underground, Jiang Lan opened his eyes.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

For the past three months, he had been circulating his energy to recover from his injuries.

He also ate some pills.

Fortunately, the effects were good.

Otherwise, his injuries would have taken at least three to five years to recover.

If something else had popped up, then he would have needed around ten years.

The power of the red dragon was too strong for him to resist.

He had been a little impulsive.

Fortunately, his gains were not bad.

“The superior version of One Leaf Vision.”

Jiang Lan was very concerned about superior divine powers and spells.

So far, he only had one superior spell.

Now that he had a superior divine power, he definitely had more advantages.

One Leaf Vision could conceal all affairs from the heavens above and the living things on earth.

It was very strong.

But there should be a limitation to this divine power.

He just didn’t know where it lied.

One Leaf Shrouding The Sky, on the other hand, should be the apex of such powers.

It could cover the karma of the Great Dao and the ears of the sages.

What was the Great Dao?

The Three Realms and Five Elements were all part of the Great Dao.

A flower, a leaf, a world.

They were all part of the Great Dao.

Good and evil, life and death, reincarnation.

They were also part of the Great Dao.

What level of existence was a sage?

Above the heavens, only those who walked together with the Great Dao and had reached the peak of immortality, gaining an eternal life could be called sages.

In other words, after learning One Leaf Shrouding The Sky, anything that he wanted to hide would be able to be hidden from the Great Dao and sages.

With this thought in mind, Jiang Lan decided to activate the One Leaf Shrouding The Sky in his mind.

But when he tried to open the book, he realized that he couldn’t.

Then, he received a message from the book.

In order to learn One Leaf Shrouding The Sky, one needed to hide from the heavens first.

Only then could one learn the divine power.

However, it was not enough to just activate his One Leaf Vision.

“I need the assistance of an array formation?”

It took two spells to learn a superior spell technique.

It was reasonable to have a need for an array formation to learn One Leaf Shrouding The Sky.

It would be more difficult if he needed to add cultivation techniques to it.

Jiang Lan knew a bit about array formations that could conceal the secrets from the heavens, but it wasn’t so easy to set up in a short period of time.

It would take a lot of time.

“Looks like I’ll have to return to the Ninth Summit to make arrangements.”

There was nothing wrong with setting up a concealing array formations in the Netherworld Cave.

The most important place in the Ninth Summit was the Netherworld Cave. There was nothing abnormal about hiding things inside from the others.

However, he could not set it up on the surface in the Netherworld Cave.

He needed to make some extensive preparations.

So that no one else would notice it.

After thinking about this, Jiang Lan decided to leave.

Now, his injuries had stabilized.

He did not need to consolidate his cultivation level. He realized that after he advanced to the Human Immortal realm, his cultivation level was exceptionally stable.

More importantly, he was not an early-stage Human Immortal.

Instead, he had directly advanced into the late-stage Human Immortal Realm.

It was somewhat inconceivable.

Jiang Lan didn’t think that there was anything special about him at the Void Refinement Realm. Theoretically speaking, he shouldn’t be experiencing any further growth in potential.

“It should be related to the heavenly tribulation. I will find out more about it when I get back.”

After making up his mind, Jiang Lan activated his One Leaf Vision and disappeared.

He did not touch the array formations here. It was fine to keep it.

Jiang Lan left the underground space and appeared in the Western Continent’s Mountain Range.

Not long after he came out, he smelled a fragrance.

Spirit herb?

Curious, he took a step forward and disappeared.

He, who was at the Human Immortal Realm, was no longer the same as before when he used the Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel.

In just a few breaths, he saw a blooming spirit herb.

Qingyi Water Flower.

As long as one touched the water of this flower, it would turn into a type of healing elixir.

It was extremely rare.
