Chapter 399: Exposed
Was it urgent?
Jiang Lan felt that he was not in a hurry.
He was still unsure of a lot of things, such as whether or not he should rebuild the house.
Actually, it would be better if it was normal.
“I shall leave it up to Master,” Jiang Lan said softly.
He wasn’t in a hurry. Neither did he have any objections in pushing forward the marriage.
He wouldn’t know the answer to his questions until he got married.
Hence, it was not a big problem for him when it came to the time of marriage.
As for becoming an immortal early, it was easy for others to know about it.
This Jiang Lan didn’t mind at all. When he returned after achieving immortality, he already had enough thoughts.
Since he had already decided, there was no need for him to be afraid.
It was not a big deal to let them know that he was advancing faster than some geniuses.
That was all.
He just needed to slowly reduce his presence.
They didn’t know how he would be doing after becoming an immortal either.
But after he became an immortal, there would be less criticism. This was something that was normal.
It was difficult for a group of non-immortals to criticize an immortal.
They were on completely different levels.
However, it did not mean that he would not be criticized.
There were many types of people.
A human’s heart is inscrutable.
Everyone is different. It is impossible for everyone to be united.
Some people would no longer dare to criticize him, while others would continue to look down on him.
Sometimes, they will utter a few words of criticism about him.
“He merely used the resources of an entire summit to reach where he is now. He is just lucky enough to become the Goddess’ fiancé.
This is also the reason why Kunlun did her best to prevent him from failing to become an immortal. He merely became an immortal because of the immense support and luck he had.”
This type of people was used to being disadvantaged. There would always be people who couldn’t stand someone else’s sudden rise to power.
Especially when the person he initially looked down on suddenly became unreachable.
However, Jiang Lan never cared about these things.
Sometimes, this also aided him.
It could help him deceive some enemies.
“Is that so? Then I shall let the other summit leaders decide the exact time, alright?” Mo Zhengdong asked.
Jiang Lan had no problems.
He didn’t care.
“Have you been to the Jade Pool?” Mo Zhengdong asked again.
Jiang Lan shook his head. “I came to see Master immediately.”
“Then go see the Goddess first. I have something for you to do tomorrow.”
It will take quite some time,” said Mo Zhengdong.
After Jiang Lan agreed, he left the Ninth Summit.
Mo Zhengdong was silent as he watched Jiang Lankai make his way to the Jade Pool. He took out the golden lotus that Jiang Lan had returned.
“The Heavenly Tribulation Golden Lotus was forged by the Kunlun Ancestor with the Heavenly Tribulation Mystic Rock. It is a protective Dharma treasure for one’s Tribulation Transcendence.
As long as a heavenly tribulation appears, it will definitely resonate and leave behind the aura of the heavenly tribulation. It will dissipate only after a hundred years.”
At this moment, the golden lotus was opened, and a complete golden lotus appeared in his palm.
After taking a closer look.
He muttered softly to himself.
“There are no traces. Jiang Lan had already transcended the tribulation to become an immortal, but the golden lotus didn’t resonate at all.
There can only be two possibilities. One, the Tribulation Golden Lotus was extremely far away from his Heavenly Tribulation. The other possibility is that Jiang Lan did not transcend the tribulation at all.”
At this moment, the golden lotus began to shrink before finally turning back into a pearl.
Holding the golden lotus, Mo Zhengdong disappeared from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was in the Ninth Summit’s library.
It had been many years since he walked in. The one who came in most frequently was Jiang Lan.
This was where Jiang Lan studied.
Jiang Lan had read a lot of books and was very diligent in his studies.
Mo Zhengdong had always felt gratified about this.
Normally speaking, this was already Jiang Lan’s private study area. He didn’t have any intention of coming in to disturb him.
But today, he needed to come in and take a look.
To confirm some things.
Mo Zhengdong stopped in front of the bookshelf and did not make a move.
A book automatically flew out from the bookshelf and was placed in front of him.
Then, he automatically flipped through it.
Finally, it stopped at the back.
“There are no traces of him having read the books at the back. Did he read up to here?”
Mo Zhengdong took a look at the content. It was about the cultivation experiences of Heaven Immortals.
“Heaven Immortal.” A look of enlightenment appeared in Mo Zhengdong’s eyes.
“I see. That was why I felt that way when I went out for training for the first time.
I felt that the thousand years of providence was extremely important to him. I kept having the feeling that he would meet something.
What I did not expect was that he would really reach the immortal’s door on that trip. I was the one who gave him the final push.”
Mo Zhengdong smiled and shook his head.
“I was wondering why he suddenly went out to train. So it turns out he wants to take this opportunity to fake his heavenly tribulation.
Once one transcends a heavenly tribulation, it is impossible for one to draw down another heavenly tribulation. Thus, he had decided to make a trip out again.
This should be the main reason why he wanted to go out. So…”
Mo Zhengdong sighed.
“He hasn’t actually had a single experience of going out to train.”
This was a headache.
Without any hesitation, Mo Zhengdong walked out of the library.
The book automatically closed and returned to its original position.
At the same time, the lotus flower began to bloom.
In the end, it separated and disappeared in midair.
“With this, no one will know that he hasn’t transcended the tribulation.”
After leaving the library, Mo Zhengdong vanished from the spot.
He returned to the peak of the Ninth Summit.
He didn’t seem to care about what had just happened and pretended that nothing had happened.
…
…
Clear skies.
Jiang Lan flew into the air on his sword.
He was headed in the direction of the Jade Pool.
He did not know that his master had gone to the library.
However, he was curious about what his master would ask him to do tomorrow.
He had just advanced to the Human Immortal Realm, so he should not need to look for opportunities to breakthrough.
That shouldn’t be the case.
The details would have to wait until tomorrow.
It shouldn’t be too difficult.
After a while.
The Jade Pool was right before his eyes.
He reached out and touched the Jade Pool’s fog, informing his Senior Sister that he had come.
He had just checked where they usually left messages for each other. His Senior Sister was not in seclusion.
A moment later, the barrier around the Jade Pool began to disappear.
His Senior Sister did not come out.
It looked like she was letting him in.
Without any hesitation, Jiang Lan rode his sword inwards.
The winter wind was a little cold, but it didn’t feel cold inside the Jade Pool.
It was rather warm.
After flying for some time, Jiang Lan saw the peach tree at the Jade Pool.
At this moment, there was a beautiful and cold girl standing under the tree.
It was a normal Ao Longyu.
She seemed colder than before. Would dragons catch a cold too?
Jiang Lan thought.
Hu!
The wind blew Jiang Lan’s clothes and he landed on the Jade Pool Peak.
In front of Xiao Yu.
“Senior Sister, long time no see,” Jiang Lan said softly.
Ao Longyu looked at Jiang Lan before shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
From sexy to cute.
From having a limited vision of the other party, he now had a vast field of vision.
“Junior Brother, do you know how much time has passed?” Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan with anger in her eyes.
“Fifteen years?” Jiang Lan tried to answer.
It seemed that his Senior Sister still needed to question him in Xiao Yu’s form.
“Fifteen years, one month and three days,” Xiao Yu answered.
Jiang Lan was stunned.
His Senior Sister remembered it so clearly.
Xiao Yu didn’t say anything else. She took out the wooden sword and handed it to Jiang Lan.
After receiving the wooden sword, Jiang Lan sat to the side and began to embed the sword with his sword intent.
Xiao Yu sat behind him and leaned against him.
“Senior Sister.” Jiang Lan suddenly called out to Xiaoyu.
“Yes.” Xiao Yu leaned against Jiang Lan and answered.
At this moment, she was dangling her feet in the air.
After hearing the response, Jiang Lan opened his mouth and spoke. He told Xiao Yu what he wanted to tell her.
“I’ve become an immortal.”
The moment he finished his sentence.
Xiao Yu’s swaying feet also stopped.
