Chapter 131: The Lord of Stars Revived Ahead of Time? I Wanted to Help You, But I Only Made Things More Trouble
Deep in Qianyuan Prefecture, a war broke out in an instant, rocks rumbled, and the lake boiled.
Xiao Teng was young and hot-tempered after all, especially after being despised and humiliated by Jiang Lan many times. This time, in front of Emperor Xia, his ministers, and guests from various immortal sects, he could no longer tolerate it.
The scene reflected in the round mirror was suddenly submerged by endless rolling smoke and fog, with dust flying everywhere.
Xiao Teng's eyes were full of coldness, and the armor he was wearing was shining with cold light. He stood up from the ferocious beast he was riding, took a step into the air, pointed his spear diagonally towards the south, and swept across.
The vast divine light swept away like real fire, and the entire sky seemed to be shaking, which showed how powerful this attack was.
Behind him, many of his men and followers arrived, full of fighting spirit and anger, and also followed him to kill.
"Third Master Xiao Teng, come to save us."
"Very good……"
Although Meng Mo and others didn't want Xiao Teng to take risks, they were still excited and grateful when they saw him turn back and fight.
"You've come just in time."
Behind Jiang Lan, Ao Xu, Luo Ying, Chi Yunxiao and others, who had been waiting for a long time, also took action quickly upon seeing this.
Magical instruments were sacrificed one after another, divine light surged, mist boiled, and all kinds of gorgeous runes flooded the place like a heavy rain.
The terrifying energy continued to surge, and the void was roaring.
Xiao Teng abandoned the others and stared directly at Jiang Lan. He swept his gun across with a cold look in his eyes, slashing down at Jiang Lan.
This blow was like a raging wave hitting the sky, or like a vast golden ocean surging, stirring up a huge wave that surged forward.
In just this instant, the surrounding ancient trees were broken by the golden waves, and the ground cracked into cracks that spread for miles. It was a shocking sight.
But even in such a situation, Jiang Lan still stood there with a smile on his face. He didn't even have the thought of hiding away. His clothes fluttered in the wind, and he looked extraordinary and otherworldly.
Such a calm expression made Xiao Teng's anger rise sharply.
Boom...
The next moment, a slender and graceful figure appeared in front of Jiang Lan.
A flash of sword light flashed by, so cold that it pierced the bone, and the void seemed to be frozen, and it directly hit the spear that Xiao Teng was chopping down.
"The Saintess of Taiyi Sect?"
His arms shook, his face changed, and then he flew out sideways, taking several steps back in the void before he stood firm.
Li Mengning stood quietly in front of Jiang Lan, holding the unsheathed ancient sword in her arms. Her face was covered with a veil, so her features could not be seen clearly, but a cold and dangerous aura seemed to emerge from her clear eyes.
"Xiao Teng, that's all you can do. You can't even get close to me."
Jiang Lan still stood there, with a smile on his face.
"You are so nice of you to rely on a woman for protection, Jiang Lan."
"You have the ability to do it yourself, but you rely on a woman, don't you feel ashamed?"
Xiao Teng's arms felt numb and he could not hide the shock in his heart. He was extremely talented and extremely powerful. So far, he had never been defeated. It was rare for the younger generation to find someone who could fight with him.
But today, I felt a very dangerous feeling from Li Mengning.
This woman is terrifyingly powerful.
All I can say is that she is worthy of being the Saint of Taiyi Sect, the leading sect among all the immortals today.
"If you can get close to me, I will attack you. Unfortunately, you don't even have this ability, so how can you be worthy of my attack?" Jiang Lan still spoke calmly.
Xiao Teng's face looked ugly and he felt extremely humiliated.
The entire imperial capital knew that Jiang Lan had only recently started practicing cultivation. What strength could he have? It was only because he had so many experts under him that he could humiliate them so wantonly.
"You only rely on your tongue. If you have no one to protect you, I will kill you like a dog."
Xiao Teng regained his composure, and many thoughts flashed through his mind. He glanced at the battle situation here. Jiang Lan had the advantage in numbers. His followers and men could never be his opponent. It was only a matter of time before he was defeated.
But knowing the situation, Xiao Teng still returned without any hesitation.
One reason is related to reputation, and another big reason is that he doesn't want Jiang Lan to take the top spot in Qianyuan Prefecture this time.
Jiang Lan probably doesn't know yet that he has separated from "Zhang Yuan". Xiao Teng is still very relieved about the extraordinary and mysterious "Zhang Yuan".
He intended to help "Zhang Yuan" delay time. He believed that Zhang Yuan would be able to explore and discover some opportunities in the area deep in Qianyuan Mansion.
On the way back, he had thrown away all the opportunities he had gained this time and did not keep any of them.
Once this matter is resolved, he will inform "Zhang Yuan" of the corresponding location left by the opportunity and ask him to take it away.
He knew he would lose, but he would not help Jiang Lan.
Chi, chi, chi…
Just as all kinds of thoughts were running through Xiao Teng's mind, he suddenly felt an overwhelming cold murderous intent overwhelming him.
The terrifying sword energy seemed to be condensed and transformed into one ancient sword phantom after another, whistling and flying towards them. It was so cold that even the void was blurred.
"Why would the Saintess of Taiyi Sect work so hard for him?"
"What did I say wrong just now that made her instantly want to kill me?"
Xiao Teng's face changed and he quickly dodged backwards.
At the same time, spiritual energy surged in his body, and it seemed that hazy starlight was gathering in every acupoint. His skin reflected the luster of the stars, and he punched forward directly.
The hazy fist marks came one after another with great power, as if one star after another was gathering and bombarding the sword shadows.
There was a coldness in Li Mengning's clear eyes. Her dress fluttered and the ancient sword was unsheathed. The sword light was overwhelming and submerged wantonly. Thousands of threads were connected, like fog and rain. In just a moment, they gathered to form a terrifying ocean of swords.
The surrounding mountains and hills were instantly cut into pieces by these terrifying sword energies.
Those who were watching the show quickly fled, their eyes filled with fear, and almost got themselves into trouble.
Li Mengning leaned on the sword and flew across the sky, the sky was bright and brilliant, and there seemed to be little emotional fluctuation in her eyes. Her figure took a step and quickly disappeared. She raised her hand and slashed with the sword, which fell directly towards where Xiao Teng was.
Phew…
Xiao Teng shouted angrily and collided with those endless sword shadows.
At this moment, it was like a huge wave hitting the shore. Rocks, huge trees, etc. broke, rushed into the sky, and exploded under the golden energy.
Xiao Teng's fist felt severe pain. Although the sword shadows were blurry, they contained indescribable sharp sword intent that could easily cut off any tangible object.
Although his body was strong, he was still injured in the collision. His fist was covered in blood, and even the white bone fragments were exposed.
The strength of the Saintess of Taiyi Sect is far stronger than he imagined.
The next moment, Xiao Teng let out a low roar and performed an ancient heavenly skill. At the same time, a divine light flickered in his eyes, and many terrifying scenes were played out.
Even his father, Xiao He, the King of Zhenbei, did not know the secret of his double pupils.
Li Mengning is very strong, her cultivation is higher than his, and the skills and supernatural powers she practices are even more powerful.
Ordinary means would definitely not be enough to defeat her, but with the divine eyes that could see through delusion, she could clearly find her flaws...
At the same time, there seemed to be a sound of a rushing river in his body, as if he was reviving.
Above his head, there seemed to be an endless star field evolving, dotted with bright stars. One after another, the ancient stars seemed to be attracted by him, and the hazy starlight fell and sprinkled towards him.
His entire body seemed to have turned into starlight, his skin was as radiant as the stars, and every pore was emitting dazzling light, completely enveloping and covering him.
The scene was terrifying. Under the broad daylight, a star field was evolving. Every star seemed to have become real, as if embedded there.
Many young people around felt a sense of oppression at this moment, their faces changed and they could not hide their palpitations.
Outside, in the central square, there was a lot of noise.
All eyes were focused on the round mirror, watching what was happening inside it.
"It is said that the third son of the Zhenbei Palace accidentally broke into an ancient ruins and obtained a method of tempering the stars. He can use the power of the stars in the sky to temper his body. Therefore, his body strength is extremely strong. I don't know whether it is true or not."
"Moreover, I have heard that he seems to have a very special physique, but so far no one has witnessed it. I wonder if he will reveal it in this battle..."
The elders of all the major sects looked extremely interested.
It can be said that Xiao Teng is one of the most outstanding geniuses in the current capital of Daxia, and there are not many young people who can compare with him.
For some reasons, the young members of the royal family were unable to participate in the battle for Qianyuan Prefecture.
As for those princes and vassal kings with deep ulterior motives, they would not be so foolish as to reveal the background of the younger generation in their palace.
When Jiang Lan first joined the team, many people thought that Xiao Teng was the top candidate.
Jiang Lan has many experts under his command, and everyone actually does not think highly of Xiao Teng. No matter what, he is the most powerful person in Daxia today, and this title is not given for nothing.
As for Jiang Lan's low level of cultivation, does it matter? Of course, more people are just watching the fun. Compared to Xiao Teng, they want to know what will happen if the girl in white takes action.
Not only the young nobles in Qianyuan Mansion were full of resentment towards Jiang Lan, but also the princes and nobles from the outside world and the ministers in the court also wanted to see Jiang Lan being beaten and humiliated.
Listening to the conversation of his ministers, Emperor Xia leaned against the soft couch, holding a green jade wine glass in his flawless jade hands, shaking it leisurely, looking somewhat relaxed.
But his eyes were slightly narrowed, fixed on the snow-white dress reflected in the round mirror, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
Xiao He, the King of Zhenbei, was wearing a long robe embroidered with a green roc. He sat upright on a high platform, his face as gloomy as water, veins on his palms exposed, and there seemed to be a gleam of divine light in his eyes, but it was difficult to hide his anger and coldness.
When he learned that Jiang Lan was taking Meng Mo and others as hostages and forcing Xiao Teng to come and rescue them, he personally rushed over from his mansion and took charge here.
He wanted to see how strong and arrogant Jiang Lan was going to be. Did he want to step on his face in front of everyone? At this time, he saw the scene of Xiao Teng fighting with Li Mengning, the Saintess of Taiyi Sect.
There was an uproar and shock on the surrounding platforms, and many elders from the immortal sects couldn't help but stand up.
“What a terrifying vision…”
"Is this the true strength of the Third Young Master of Zhenbei Palace?"
"Could this be the body of stars? It seems that the inheritance obtained by Third Young Master Xiao Teng is not accidental. This kind of physique can borrow the power of the stars in the sky. Not only that, if the stars are driven to reflect and manifest, they can suppress everything."
"The body of the stars, also known as the son of the stars, is extremely rare. Every move he makes reflects the stars in the sky. His aura is majestic and unrivaled..."
In the imperial capital, there are actually quite a few people who know that Xiao Teng possesses a star body.
When Zhenbei King Xiao He saw Xiao Teng display the power of his physique, he knew that he was serious and was going to exert his full strength.
The Saint of Taiyi Sect is not comparable to ordinary young geniuses. If you don’t respond with all your strength, you will definitely be defeated.
"The star body is just a surface phenomenon. This guy is actually the reincarnation of the star master, but there is no sign of awakening yet..."
"In addition, he still has the Yaoguang Immortal Jade that Ge Qixing and the Palace Master of the Goddess Palace took away."
"However, with the current means, it is almost impossible to defeat Li Mengning. Li Mengning is just used to using a sword, which does not mean that she is good at kendo."
Jiang Lan looked at the chaotic battle in the field, many thoughts flashing through his mind. He was actually not worried about the outcome of this battle.
But Ye Ming was not there beside Xiao Teng.
This was beyond his expectation, it seemed that they had separated along the way.
Given Ye Ming's personality, there is a high probability that he will go deep into Qianyuan Mansion and look for opportunities alone.
Xiao Teng's only purpose in showing off his strength was to delay him...
"Do you want Ye Ming to win the championship?" Jiang Lan vaguely guessed his purpose.
Just as Jiang Lan's mind flashed through his mind, an endless amount of icy and bone-chilling air suddenly swept over him, and invisible ice chips fluttered down from the sky.
A boundless white ice field suddenly spread out, covering the entire sky.
Li Mengning leaned on her sword and crossed the sky, her long black hair fluttering in the wind. Behind her, there seemed to be a terrifying full moon covered with ice and snow hanging high in the sky.
The full moon was bright and cold, overwhelming the strange scene behind her. It carried some kind of icy blue aura, and the entire frozen plateau was covered by an endless ice and snow storm.
She stood in the middle of it, like a king carved out of ice and snow. With just a wave of her hand, a massive storm came down, carrying with it countless icicle fragments, and bombarded Xiao Teng in front of her.
The earth was frozen in an instant, icy mist surged away, the lake surface was frozen, and a thick layer of ice and snow covered it. The surrounding mountains, trees, and hanging silver waterfalls seemed to be frozen in an instant.
At this moment, her black hair was fluttering, stained with frost and snow, with a gorgeous and dreamy ice-blue color, and even her skin was as transparent as ice and snow.
Boom!!! The ground rumbled, and then broke apart. One after another, ice spikes that looked like icicles reaching the sky suddenly rushed out like thorns.
This horrifying scene instantly made all the young people around tremble with fear and shock.
This has already gone beyond the scope of supernatural powers. It is a scene that is like a domain, where words come true and the wind and snow are in control.
Under such a terrible impact, even if Xiao Teng attracted the starlight, it was of no avail. As soon as he came into contact with the ice, he was bombarded by countless ice pillars.
Then he coughed up blood and flew out, his body covered in blood, and no one knew how many bones were broken.
Unless he could attract the falling stars, he would be no match for Li Mengning who had such means.
"Third Young Master..."
His followers and men were also horrified when they saw this scene. They quickly abandoned their opponents and went to support Xiao Teng and let him swallow the pill.
"I lost?"
Xiao Teng had blood oozing from the corners of his mouth and looked dazed, as if he couldn't accept the fact that he had been defeated. He still had many tricks up his sleeve that he hadn't used yet.
But why couldn't the Delusion-Breaking Divine Eye see his flaws? Could it be that the other party had already reached a point where there were no flaws at all?
After Li Mengning defeated Xiao Teng, she did not take any more action. She returned to Jiang Lan, holding the ancient sword, still as cold as ever.
However, there was still a faint, icy aura like frost and snow lingering around her, like a layer of ice fog, making her look hazy.
"He has a kind of eye technique that can see flaws and predict the future..." She thought for a moment and whispered in Jiang Lan's ear.
Jiang Lan said, "I know."
After all, Li Mengning's cultivation strength is higher than Xiao Teng's current strength. When she senses that he has such means, she will naturally have a way to deal with it.
"Should we kill him?" Li Mengning asked.
"If we kill him, we'll be in trouble." Jiang Lan shook his head.
However, although he said this, his eyes were looking into the distance, as if he was thinking about or sensing something.
All the young people in the surrounding mountains were shocked and unbelievable when they saw this scene, and fell into a kind of dead silence for a while.
"Defeated in one encounter?"
"The difference in strength between the two is too great. The Third Young Master Xiao Teng is only at the fifth realm, while the Saintess of Taiyi Sect has already broken into the sixth realm of supernatural powers. She has also mastered the domain, and her comprehension is already extremely profound."
“Even the older generation who have broken through the magical realm for many years are definitely not her match.”
“It’s just so powerful.”
The people outside were in an uproar and couldn't believe it.
Originally, it was thought that Xiao Teng had a stellar body, and if he exerted his full strength, he might still be able to fight.
But who would have thought that after the Taiyi Sect Saintess got serious, he was defeated in just a single encounter, and so easily and directly, as if he had absolutely no power to resist.
Zhenbei King Xiao He's face turned ashen, his fists were clenched, and there was a murderous aura flowing through his body, but at this moment he could only suppress it.
"Why is your Highness so angry? Jiang Lan is just relying on the power of a woman. The Third Young Master's cultivation is still shallow, so he doesn't have the advantage..."
"When we achieve a breakthrough in our cultivation in the future, we will surely be able to avenge our previous defeat." Several counselors around him spoke out hastily.
Deep inside the imperial capital, on top of a magnificent high-rise building, a middle-aged man wearing a Taoist robe with a handsome face was also paying attention to the picture in the round mirror. Seeing this scene, his brows frowned slightly.
"Teng'er still has many methods that he cannot use, and his physique has not yet awakened. The Saintess of Taiyi Sect is just bullying the weak..."
His eyes were deep and calm, but there was an inexplicable coldness flashing in them.
But at this moment, the middle-aged man seemed to realize something and his expression changed slightly.
He had originally withdrawn his gaze, but now looked at the round mirror again, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
On the other side of the imperial capital, deep inside a magnificent palace, a graceful figure was leaning on a soft couch.
At this moment, the woman seemed to sense something, and suddenly stood up and walked outside.
"The Star Bead suddenly glowed? The Yaoguang Fairy Jade reacted again?"
"We must not let it go this time. We must find out where it is."
In her hand, she was holding a fist-sized, crystal clear jade bead.
There are tiny dots of light flashing in it, shaped like a galaxy, extremely dazzling.
This woman is none other than the Fairy Miaoyin of the Goddess Palace.
Deep in the Qianyuan Mansion, Ye Ming transformed into a divine rainbow and was chasing after the disappearing light, but suddenly he felt the foggy sky in front of him suddenly became dim.
This change happened suddenly, without any warning, just like in broad daylight, night suddenly falls, turning day into night in an instant.
"Old ghost, what happened?"
"Why did the sky change so suddenly?" he asked, still staring at the direction where the streak of light was escaping into the distance. He did not relax and continued to chase it.
"The celestial phenomena here are affected by some kind of force, and some unexpected changes may occur." said the old ghost.
The scene on the shore of the Green Lake was even more horrifying at this moment. All the young geniuses in the surrounding mountains were so shocked that they were speechless.
"Third Young Master..."
The young guests at the Zhenbei Palace were also shocked and didn't know what was going on.
I saw that there seemed to be some kind of brilliant and crystal aura emerging from Xiao Teng's body.
Faintly, it seemed as if there was a reviving star, emitting endless light, making his flesh and blood become as crystal clear as ancient jade.
Originally it was daytime and bright in the sky, but in an instant it was night. Such a change made everyone tremble with fear.
The dark night sky was filled with stars, like diamonds inlaid in the night sky, shining continuously. The lights began to gather and descend, falling towards Xiao Teng and covering him.
Xiao Teng had not expected that suddenly, a vast force like rivers and oceans would surge in his body, and he felt incomparably warm, as if he was in a galaxy.
Indistinctly, he seemed to sense some broken star fragments, wrapped with some marks, containing ancient memories, heavy, majestic, and solemn, and the stars were shining for them.
“Could this be the true power of the star body?”
"After the defeat just now, did you suddenly have an epiphany and awaken?"
Many people were shocked and made many guesses. They looked at Xiao Teng and could clearly feel the aura in his body rising and changing.
Blood was constantly rushing in those blood vessels, shining with a silvery luster and making a terrifying sound like a tsunami.
The most shocking thing was that above their heads, in the dark night, one star after another seemed to be falling and growing larger.
These stars were as heavy as mountains and rumbled. The starlight became brighter and more dazzling, just like a huge sun.
This no longer seemed to be a vision, but a real star field that had truly evolved. The real stars in this world were about to fall and crush everything.
The shock in the outside world was no less than that in Qianyuan Palace.
"Could it be because of the awakening and transformation of the star body?"
"This kind of aura and movement can easily crush an ordinary cultivator."
This was the first time that the elders of the immortal sects had seen such a situation and had no idea why.
Even Emperor Xia sat up straight on the couch, watching the changes in Xiao Teng with a thoughtful look.
Only Xiao He seemed to have guessed something. His expression changed. Although he was happy, he could not hide a feeling of depression and melancholy.
"The Star Lord's memory has been revived ahead of time? No, it should be because of that supreme treasure, the Yaoguang Immortal Jade. Without the Seven Stars Origin, the Star Lord's memory cannot be integrated."
"Ge Qixing knows this and will not take any risks. Otherwise, after the Star Lord's memory is revived, Xiao Teng will no longer be their son."
Looking at this scene, Jiang Lan frowned slightly. He did not expect that such a change would suddenly occur in Xiao Teng's body at this moment.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he couldn't take action himself, otherwise he could try to take away the Yaoguang Fairy Jade in Xiao Teng's body at this time.
Especially Xiao Teng's current changes must be under the watchful eyes of National Master Ge Qixing.
"Jiang Lan..."
"You would never have expected that I would suddenly have an epiphany and a breakthrough, and my strength is far beyond what I had just experienced."
"I wonder if the Saintess of Taiyi Sect, whom you rely on, can continue to help you."
At this moment, Xiao Teng, whose body was covered in starlight, suddenly looked at Jiang Lan. The dejected look on his face just now was gone, and his eyes were shining with silver light, as if there were stars twinkling in them.
He suddenly took a step forward, and the terrifying force instantly broke the ground beneath his feet into pieces.
Such power is simply incredible, as if an ancient ferocious beast has been revived, with blood and energy surging all over its body, like a furnace of heaven and earth.
Xiao Teng didn’t know how long he could maintain his current state, but he felt as if he had become the master of the stars. His every move was filled with unparalleled power, and he could easily borrow the power of the stars in heaven and earth.
Just now he was defeated by Li Mengning because his cultivation level was not high enough, but now the situation has changed drastically. It was as if a real star was reviving in his body, bringing him indescribable confidence.
As he raised his hand and waved, the sky was filled with twinkling stars, which fell down and then grew larger, as if they were rapidly pressing down on Jiang Lan, as if they wanted to crush him into a bloody mist.
"Young Master..."
Luo Ying, Chi Yunxiao and others beside Jiang Lan were shocked, their faces changed drastically, their bodies creaked, and all the joints were shaking. They were under tremendous pressure.
Those stars are infinitely far away, and even before they actually press down, they already have such a terrifying oppressive force.
If a star really falls, the force would be enough to destroy the world.
And now Xiao Teng can actually control a little bit of this power...
“They are not real stars, but they are comparable.”
"The power of the star body, with the blessing of the revived Yaoguang Immortal Jade, is indeed extraordinary."
"If you get to the later stage, you will indeed be able to control the stars in the sky."
Jiang Lan's expression remained unchanged, but his intention to squeeze all the benefits out of Xiao Teng deepened.
The power of the stars is definitely one of the most powerful forces in this world...
Feeling that Li Mengning beside him suddenly became serious, Jiang Lan thought for a moment, held her hand, and said, "Don't worry."
Li Mengning's eyes showed a little confusion.
And the next moment, the pitch-black night quickly disappeared, and the bright stars became blurred. Those stars did not sink, and the blue sky and white sun reappeared.
"What's going on?"
Xiao Teng was stunned, and all the light on his body disappeared.
He was completely stunned, and then stood there in a daze. He could not feel at all the feeling of being surrounded by stars and being able to use them.
An unprecedented weakness came over him, causing his body to shake and he fell directly to the ground, his face full of disbelief and horror.
"How is this possible?" Xiao Teng opened his eyes wide and stared towards the east.
In the direction where the dark night disappeared, light emerged. To be precise, the night that enveloped this area was quickly disappearing as it followed the light there.
Everyone looked back and the night sky disappeared.
A snow-white Pegasus, carrying a girl in white, appeared on the top of a mountain.
Behind her followed a large group of young nobles and monks.
At this moment, everyone was equally shocked and stood there in a daze, speechless at the miraculous scene that just happened.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would definitely doubt their eyes.
Were the stars in the night sky just now afraid of the girl in white before them? As she walked, they kept disappearing and going away, and then disappeared from sight again? What kind of incredible scene was this?
"You... who are you?"
Xiao Teng looked over with shock. The vast power that had surged in his body just now seemed to have disappeared at this moment. He could no longer feel it at all, as if it had completely quieted down.
As the gaze of the girl in white swept across him, he seemed to faintly hear a trembling sense of fear coming from within his body?
This made Xiao Teng completely stunned, unable to believe it.
"Isn't this too strong? How did you do it?"
Xia Jie, Chong Xiuyuan and other young nobles had been following the girl in white. They also noticed the sudden change in the weather just now.
In an instant, night fell, but when the girl in white looked up, the night sky and stars above her head suddenly disappeared.
The land where she rode her snow-white horse suddenly became as bright as day, as if it were a miracle.
"There is absolutely no suspense in this competition for the top spot..."
This was the only thought in all of their minds. No matter how many people Jiang Lan had around him or how strong he was, what was the use? This girl in white was able to suppress everyone by herself and make them submit, so that they dared not have any extra thoughts.
“Haha, but Jiang Lan got an advantage. If the girl in white hadn’t taken action, it wouldn’t be so easy for him to face Xiao Teng now.”
Xia Jie looked over and was a little confused.
The snow-white horse walked down from the top of the mountain and headed towards the blue lake under the gaze of everyone.
Xiao Teng stood up unwillingly with the help of several followers and shouted, "Who are you?"
However, the girl in white riding on the snow-white horse seemed not to have heard his words at all, nor did she pay any attention to him. She passed by him as if she was facing air.
By the edge of the green lake, icy mist was lingering, but Jiang Lan remained calm and composed, with no fluctuations in his expression.
Li Mengning, who was beside him, had been staring at the girl in white. She seemed a little confused at first, but as she got closer, a shocking chill suddenly emerged on her flawless face, which was extremely cold.
She sensed that familiar aura; although the face and figure had changed, the identity was unmistakable.
She recognized it.
Jiang Lan held her cold little hand, and then asked calmly, "What do you mean?"
In fact, he had already vaguely guessed from those news...Jiang Ruxian also entered the Qianyuan Mansion this time.
So he had anticipated that Jiang Ruxian would take action.
"I...I want to help you."
Jiang Ruxian rode a snow-white horse and stopped not far in front of him. She glanced at Jiang Lan's hand holding Li Mengning's. She paused for a moment, feeling a little sour in her heart, and then she quickly and calmly looked away.
She raised her hand lightly, and a Sumeru bag appeared in front of her. As the bag opened, a thick mist filled out, colorful and extremely dazzling. There were rare and exotic spiritual minerals, medicinal herbs, ancient jade slips, and ruins and stone carvings...
The dazzling and brilliant light instantly flooded the place. It was all the harvest of many young geniuses in Qianyuan Mansion, which could be exchanged for incredibly amazing points.
After hearing the conversation between the two and seeing Jiang Ruxian's actions, everyone around them widened their eyes and were stunned.
The mountains, which had been shaking with some uproar, suddenly became dead silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
"What?"
"Have they known each other for a long time?"
Xia Jie, Chong Xiuyuan and others, who were originally looking forward to watching a good show, were stunned. After they reacted, they were all petrified and stood there stiffly like clay sculptures.
There are many younger people who have the same thoughts and feelings as them.
At this moment, I felt extremely shocked and surprised, and wondered if I had heard it wrong or seen it wrong.
This terrifying and mysterious girl in white actually came to help Jiang Lan? "Thank you..."
"But it doesn't have to be."
Jiang Lan looked at the spiritual objects piled up like a small mountain in front of him. He seemed to be silent for a moment, then shook his head calmly.
Li Mengning stood in front of him, her clear eyes full of hostility and coldness, looking at Jiang Ruxian as if she was going to swear an oath to her.
"It won't take long to collect these..."
Jiang Ruxian seemed to have anticipated this scene and just smiled casually.
"No need." Jiang Lan interrupted her, his tone still calm.
He never thought of using Jiang Ruxian to win the top spot this time, and he didn't need her either.
On the contrary, Jiang Ruxian's blatant help for him and his great popularity in Qianyuan Mansion will cause more people and forces to pay too much attention to him.
Jiang Lan actually doesn't like this feeling. He still prefers to stay behind the scenes and control everything secretly.
Being noticed so early would only make it difficult for him to carry out his future plans and would also become more troublesome.
Jiang Ruxian came here purely to cause trouble for him.
Seeing that Jiang Lan's attitude was calm but still distant and indifferent, Jiang Ruxian smiled silently and bitterly in her heart. Although she had expected it, she still felt uncomfortable seeing him being so close to Li Mengning now.
"I'll leave these things here and won't disturb you or cause you any trouble," she said.
