Li Daoyuan looked worried.
It wasn’t that he didn't like these two ladies, but their origins were too high, and their standings inside their respective sects were unique.
Although the Li family was prestigious, they couldn't withstand the onslaught of two top sects.
Li Ran smiled. "Calm down. You don’t have to get nervous; this is nothing."
Li Daoyuan shook his head and said, "These are two chief disciples. How is that nothing?"
The two women lowered their heads shyly.
Li Ran wanted to say that he had only got together with one, but he didn't know where to start.
He simply couldn't be bothered to explain.
Qin Ruyan saw that he seemed to have tacitly agreed and a trace of shyness flashed through her eyes.
Li Daoyuan said, “Let's not talk about the Myriad Sword Pavilion and Joyous Unity Sect for now. If your master were to find out about this, how do you plan to explain to her?"
Leng Wuyan was famous for being ruthless.
The prohibition on male and female relationships was one of her biggest taboos.
Li Ran shrugged. "Master already knows."
"She already knows?" Li Daoyuan suddenly became nervous. "And then, did she expel you from the sect?"
"Of course not. She just asked me to fly back to the sect, so I went home first." Li Ran said.
Li Daoyuan was taken aback. "It's that simple?"
This did not look like the Cold Demoness' personality!
How could he have known that this rule was no longer valid…
Although he was a little confused, he was relieved.
Li Ran asked, "By the way, where is Qingge now?"
Li Daoyuan said, "Since you left, Qingge has been cultivating with the Old Ancestor almost every day. But she hasn't come today. She should be in the Xiao Mansion."
Li Ran nodded. "Alright, I'll go find her later."
He hadn't seen this girl for a long time, so he missed her.
He left the study with the two women.
To avoid attracting too much attention, Li Ran arranged for them to stay in a relatively remote room and had trusted servants serve them.
In the room, Yue Jianli held him like a bear and refused to let go.
"Alright, it's daytime. I’m a bit ashamed." Li Ran scratched his nose.
Yue Jianli pouted. "We're already in that kind of relationship, so what's there to be ashamed of?"
At this moment, her initially heroic and incomparably beautiful face looked extremely adorable.
Thinking back to their past, the sword-wielding girl who was shouting for a fight now had turned into a gentle person who wanted his cuddle.
Li Ran's heart was filled with warmth.
He smiled and said, "How about we talk about life first?"
"Let's not talk about it."
Yue Jianli turned her head. "You should go find Xiao Qingge first."
"Jianli?" Li Ran was taken aback.
Yue Jianli leaned her head against his chest and said softly, "You and Xiao Qingge were engaged not long ago, and I was the one after her. If I am the first to marry you… you would’ve let her down.
"The last time I fought with her, I was a little impulsive. So please apologize to her in my stead.”
Li Ran smiled. "Then why don't you go yourself?"‘
Yue Jianli said haughtily, "Humph, I'm the chief of the Myriad Sword Pavilion, how could I personally apologize to her?"
Looking at Li Ran's smile, she lowered her head and said helplessly, "Alright, I don't feel good…"
"Alright, don't worry." Li Ran rubbed her head. "I'll make it clear to Qingge."
"Okay."”
Yue Janli blushed and said, "Then, then I won't lock the door. I'll wait for you to come back…”
Li Ran couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he saw her bashful appearance.
It wasn't easy to get out of the room. He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
Puchi~
A laugh came from the side.
Qin Ruyan was leaning against the door frame as she smiled at him.
"Sheng Zi Li, pay attention to your body. It's a steel scraper!”
Li Ran held his hands behind his back and said proudly, "I'm extremely talented. I can even scrape ten hard knives. Does Holy Maiden Qin want to give it a try?"
"Who's going to shave you?" Qin Ruyan blushed and snorted.
This guy always knew what to say. He was even more like a disciple of the Joyous Unity Sect…
"That's right, you brought this servant into the manor just like that. Aren't you afraid of others gossiping?" Qin Ruyan asked.
Li Ran said in confusion, "What kind of gossip can there be?"
Qin Ruyan said softly, "This servant is a demoness from the Joyous Unity Sect. In the eyes of others, I'm not even good as a girl. Isn't Sheng Zi Li afraid of tarnishing his reputation?"
Due to her special status, she had always been accused of being loose.
No matter how much others coveted her, they would draw a clear line in front of the public.
Otherwise, it would definitely attract all sorts of gossip.
"Fame?" Li Ran sneered, "Fist is the hard truth, and reputation is the most useless thing. If you still care about reputation, then it only means that your fist is hard enough!
"Besides…" Li Ran glanced at her. "What's wrong with the witch? If I like to be friends with the witch. Who would dare to disagree?"
She turned around and walked out.
Qin Ruyan looked at his back and didn't return to her senses for a long time.
"Friend?" Her cherry lips curled slightly, her smile extremely charming.
In the Xiao family mansion…
Everyone from the Xiao family sat in the living room, from the Clan Leader to the Elder.
The atmosphere was a little heavy.
Xiao Qingge looked at the young man sitting opposite, her eyes filled with vigilance.
"Why did Chief Feng come to my Xiao family this time?" she asked aloud.
The man put down the teacup and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I've seen you. Junior Sister Xiao is still so quick to speak."”
Although his smile was kind, Xiao Qingge did not let down her guard.
This was Feng Wanjiang!
Chen Yundao's favorite disciple, the First Chief Disciple of the Supreme Dao Palace!
Based on her understanding of Feng Wanjiang, he was definitely a smiling tiger. The more brilliant his smile was, the more ruthless he would be!
If he came to look for her, there would definitely be no good news.
Feng Wanjiang looked at Xiao Qingge carefully and said in surprise, "My junior sister Xiao's aura seems to be much more restrained. Could it be that she has broken through to the Golden Core Realm?"
Xiao Qing Ge nodded. "I was just lucky enough to breakthrough.”
She was a half-step Golden Core Realm cultivator now, and with the vigorous nature essence of the Li Clan's secret ground, it was only natural for her to break through.
Pa pa pa!
Feng Wanjiang suddenly clapped and said, "As expected of Fairy Qing, her supreme talent is indeed extraordinary. Her future is limitless, and it's truly the fortune of my Supreme Dao Palace!"
Xiao Qingge frowned and said bluntly, "I was expelled from my sect a long time ago, so what does my cultivation have to do with the Supreme Dao Palace?"
"Eh?"
Hearing this, Feng Wanjiang's smile faded away, a dangerous light appearing in his eyes.
