Chapter 245

Cheng Xiaoman is getting married to the young master of Lingyun Manor.

Rong Rong was so shocked that she didn't know how to react.

Logically speaking, after Cheng Xiaoman met the male lead, she should have traveled the world with him, developed feelings for each other, and followed the original owner's old path. Why did she suddenly have to marry that guy again?

Yes! Shen Yanbai!

This is unreasonable!

Rong Rong and 666 were both a little confused.

Moreover, Rong Rong suddenly realized a problem: if Cheng Xiaoman became the young mistress of Lingyun Manor, could she still get her jade pendant back from her?

When the time comes, will Lingyun Manor side with Cheng Xiaoman, one of their own, or with her, an outsider and descendant of an old friend?

Rong Rong was somewhat worried.

Jiang Yetang saw the worry on her face. Her smile remained unchanged, but she was anxious and a little bitter inside.

Why did Rong Rong go to Lingyun Manor? Why was she unhappy after learning about Shen Yanbai and Cheng Xiaoman's marriage? Does Rong Rong like Shen Yanbai? Did she go to Lingyun Manor just to find Shen Yanbai?

At this moment, Jiang Yetang, dominated by his emotions, had lost his mind and completely lost his former shrewdness.

He seemed to have forgotten that Rong Rong knew beforehand that the young master of Lingyun Manor was getting married, yet she only started to feel sad now.

Jiang Yetang hesitated for a moment before finally asking casually, "What's troubling you, sister?"

"Could it be that Shen Yanbai has let my sister down?"

Jiang Yetang's face was full of jealousy, and her words were also laced with a strong sense of envy.

With his current mind, he couldn't think of any other reason. Moreover, he knew the inside story of Shen Yanbai's engagement, so he naturally guessed that Shen Yanbai had wronged Rong Rong.

Rong Rong was so preoccupied with her own thoughts that she didn't notice Jiang Yetang's little scheme. She immediately told Jiang Yetang about her own situation.

"You're saying that Cheng Xiaoman, Shen Yanbai's fiancée, took your jade pendant?"

On the official road, a sound pierced the sky, startling a large flock of birds in the roadside woods.

Rong Rong looked at Jiang Yetang, who was a little too excited, with surprise, not understanding why he was shouting so loudly.

Realizing his loss of composure, Jiang Yetang quickly composed himself, his eyes flashing with a sharp light as he forcefully suppressed the urge to curl his lips into a smile.

"Shen Yanbai's fiancée would do such a thing?" Jiang Yetang looked incredulous, but inwardly she was overjoyed.

"By the way, you said you went to Lingyun Manor to deliver a message. Your maternal grandmother is the Lotus Sword Immortal, Rong Qianning? An old friend of Grandpa Chen?"

"Yes." Rong Rong nodded, a little sullen. Jiang Yetang didn't believe him. Humph, Rong Rong turned her head away.

Jiang Yetang chuckled to himself, but said seriously, "I recognize the handwriting of the Lotus Sword Immortal. Our Jiang family also has some connection with the Lotus Sword Immortal. Let me see the letter so I can confirm it?"

Rong Rong didn't move; she was still angry.

"Don't worry, I'll only look at the cover." Jiang Yetang added, deliberately getting up and sitting on the other side of Rong Rong, facing Rong Rong's face directly. "Besides, I'm just confirming whether our evidence is sufficient so that it will be easier to tell Grandpa Shen later."

"I will definitely help you!"

Jiang Yetang looked sincere, and Rong Rong hesitated for a moment before handing the letter to him.

Jiang Yetang lowered his head, and the incredibly familiar handwriting leaped onto the paper.

"To Senior Brother Shen"

The five large characters were elegant and graceful, exactly the kind of small regular script that I had seen countless times in my grandfather's study.

It really is her! Rong Rong really is her descendant!

Jiang Yetang finally couldn't suppress the smile on her lips, which almost stretched to her ears.

Rongrong found this person inexplicable; one moment he was anxious, the next he was laughing.

Menopausal stinky man!

Rong Rong snatched the letter away and sat alone by the window, ignoring the lunatic.

Jiang Yetang wished he could jump out of the carriage and fly back and forth through the woods!

Rong Rong is a descendant of the Lotus Sword Immortal, and the jade pendant also belongs to Rong Rong. Rong Rong has no idea what the jade pendant is or what its use is.

The Lotus Sword Immortal was once a renowned beauty in the martial arts world.

Unlike other female knights-errant, she was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Rather than a female knight-errant, she was more like the daughter of an official, possessing a scholarly air that was completely different from those of ordinary people.

She was intelligent, elegant, gentle, and beautiful; she was the dream lover of countless young men in the martial arts world decades ago.

Her fame and the number of her followers far surpass those of the current five beauties: Feng Wanyue Longxiaoxiang Meng, Yunqi Wutong Fenghuang Xian!

Besides being admired by many, there are also many renowned heroes in the martial arts world who have had love-hate entanglements with the Lotus Sword Immortal. These people, whether in the past or present, are all powerful and influential figures who dominate their respective regions.

Among them were Grandpa Shen from Lingyun Manor, Grandpa Lei from Leiguang Sect, and the old man from their Seven Star Tower, Jiang Yetang's own grandfather...

Of course, there should be other people, but Jiang Yetang only knew and recognized these three.

Even today, the old men still fondly remember the Lotus Sword Immortal, and the jade pendant that Rong Rong mentioned that the Lotus Sword Immortal left her was not an ordinary jade pendant, but a token.

A token of engagement that can be used by the descendants of Shen Yanbai, Lei Wumian, himself, or even any other old man who has made an agreement with the Lotus Sword Immortal.

As for who she will marry, that depends on the choice of the descendants of the Lotus Sword Immortal; everything is subject to the will of the descendants of the Lotus Sword Immortal.

That's how Cheng Xiaoman and Shen Yanbai's engagement came about. The real purpose of the Lotus Sword Immortal calling Rong Rong to Lingyun Manor was not to have Rong Rong deliver a letter, but to ask Grandpa Shen and the others if their original agreement still stood.

The Lotus Sword Immortal was probably trying to seek protection for her granddaughter.

Therefore, the true token of love is the jade pendant!

But Lingyun Manor has mistaken the person for someone else!

At this moment, Jiang Yetang felt an indescribable joy and excitement!

He was the first person to meet Rong Rong; he had the advantage of being the first to know!

He, Shen Yanbai, and Lei Wumian were repeatedly taught from childhood that they had an unknown fiancée and that they should love and protect each other.

At first, they were all very curious about the girl, but as they grew older, and as their grandfather and parents kept talking about her, their curiosity and expectations for the girl gradually turned into aversion and avoidance!

When Jiang Yetang learned that Shen Yanbai was going to marry the other party, she breathed a huge sigh of relief, feeling as if a mountain that had been weighing on her had finally been lifted off her shoulders.

While relaxing, he also did not plan to attend Shen Yanbai's wedding.

He wished he could never have any contact with that person's descendants again.

He wanted to eliminate any possibility of getting involved with the other party.

But now, everything has changed.

Rong Rong is a descendant of the Lotus Sword Immortal!

If it were Rong Rong, he would only complain that he met her too late and blame his grandfather for not bringing her over sooner.

Now he finally understood why his grandfather and the others had such an almost obsessive obsession with the Lotus Sword Immortal.

If it were Rong Rong instead, he would be even crazier than his grandfather.

Jiang Yetang was like he was on steroids, constantly excited.

Rong Rong didn't understand, and didn't even want to talk to anyone.

However, Jiang Yetang was incredibly persistent; Rongrong had never seen such a shameless person.

After being driven to her wits' end by Jiang Yetang's antics, Rong Rong gradually got used to Jiang Yetang's constant commotion around her.

Little did they know that once a habit reaches a certain point, it will lead to repeated setbacks, like a frog being slowly boiled in water, until they are completely and utterly surrounded by that person in every aspect.
