Chapter 201: Choose one of the two? Trash is trash, the trend of heaven and earth has emerged
In the dungeon, the cultivation levels of Xiao Teng and the others were sealed by Zhuang Feihua herself. Although their hands and feet were not bound, they could not break free by relying on their physical strength alone.
As Lou Long, the former palace master, had a cultivation level far superior to Xiao Teng and the others, he was locked up alone.
The air was filled with a cold and damp smell, and although there were lights on both sides of the corridor, it still seemed a little dim.
At this moment, seeing someone coming, Xiao Teng, who was squatting in the corner of the dungeon with a gloomy face, suddenly raised his head, and then stared at Jiang Lan, without hiding his hatred.
Lou Xinyu and others around him also stood up and looked outside the dungeon.
Ye Shiyan was also staring coldly at Jiang Lan. Her slender hands were hidden under her sleeves, and it was unclear what she was holding. From her expression, it could be seen that she was using quite a bit of force. If one didn't know better, one would have thought that the two of them seemed to have some life-and-death feud.
"Since Xiao Teng was captured, he has been locked up in a dungeon. We in the Goddess Palace did not do anything to him, and the origin of Tianxuan is still in his body."
"Saint Son Jiang Lan can check it out personally." Zhuang Feihua explained.
"I naturally believe what the Goddess Palace said in public, so there is no need to check."
Jiang Lan nodded and smiled at Xiao Teng in the dungeon, ignoring his expression as if he wanted to eat him alive.
As for Ye Shiyan's gaze, he naturally chose to ignore it and not pay any attention to it.
Ye Shiyan gritted her teeth secretly and almost couldn't help calling him a bastard. In order to keep an eye on Xiao Teng's whereabouts, she had suffered so much along the way, fled all the way, suffered so many injuries, and almost lost her life several times.
In the end, she didn't even hear a word of comfort and concern from him, and the messages she sent were like a drop in the ocean, with no response at all.
Even though she was just a tool, she also had a temper. Jiang Lan really didn't care about her life or death. Did he really think that after putting a slave mark on her, she would have no way to fight back?
"Don't worry, Saint Son Jiang Lan. We will be able to take the things off Xiao Teng in three days at most. Then we will naturally hand him over to you for disposal." Zhuang Feihua assured again. In her eyes, Xiao Teng was no different from a dead person.
If she wasn't worried that Xiao Teng's sudden death would affect the Yaoguang Fairy Jade that was nurtured in his body, she would have wanted to slap Xiao Teng to death.
It can be said that the Goddess Palace suffered a complete loss of face and caused such a huge scandal all because of Xiao Teng.
If he hadn't sought refuge in the Goddess Palace, this matter might have been kept secret...
"Three days..."
Jiang Lan nodded slightly. Three days was enough time for Ge Qixing to come and save the situation. From the beginning to the end, his target was not Xiao Teng, but his biological father Ge Qixing.
After the elimination of the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, Daxia's fortune will lose its most powerful beneficiary.
After all, after such an incident, Ge Qixing's reputation in Daxia will plummet to the bottom.
Coupled with the backup plan that Jiang Lan had laid out before, Emperor Xia will also understand the "ambition" of his master. Later, when the "truth" about Xiao Teng losing the Dragon Seal is exposed, the line of the Great Xia National Master will completely disappoint Emperor Xia.
His father Jiang Lintian would also take the opportunity to take it over.
"Bring Xiao Teng into the Holy Spring of Purification..."
Zhuang Feihua gave an order and several elders behind her came forward and opened the prison door, intending to take Xiao Teng to the Jingxin Holy Spring, and then set up a formation to take out the Yaoguang Fairy Jade from his body.
After all, Xiao Teng was not the original owner of the Yaoguang Fairy Jade. Lou Long and Ge Qixing's method of nurturing and parasitism could not allow him to completely merge with it.
Zhuang Feihua was well aware of this, so she dared to speak in front of everyone. Three days and some price would be enough to take out the Yaoguang Fairy Jade.
Xiao Teng also knew that he had no chance of resistance, so he allowed several elders from the Goddess Palace to escort him out of the dungeon.
But when he got to Jiang Lan's side, his voice full of hatred suddenly sounded, like a beast at the end of its rope, he hoarsely said, "Jiang Lan..."
"You'd better hope that I don't rise again in the future, or I will make you pay a heavy price."
Jiang Lan had a faint smile on his face. He reached out to stop several elders from the Goddess Palace who were about to shut Xiao Teng up, and said, "Oh?"
"I can't understand why you hate me so much? What did I do to make you so worried and unable to forget? Even now, you still don't forget to provoke me?"
Xiao Teng was stunned, and his mind recalled many things that happened in the imperial capital.
If Jiang Lan hadn't fallen for Xie Jianjia, the Xie family wouldn't have been demoted, nor would they have been exiled, and there wouldn't have been the events that followed...
Ever since he was humiliated by Jiang Lan in the Jiantiansi prison that day, the two of them have had an irreconcilable grudge.
He didn't know why he had such a deep hatred for Jiang Lan. Every time he saw him, he would feel a strong sense of unwillingness in his heart.
Why did he, a second-generation rich man who was ignorant and bullied men and women, a playboy whom he looked down upon, grow up to this point one day? He was admired by the world and invincible among his peers. Even the strong men of the older generation were afraid of him.
“I’m not willing to…”
"You don't deserve it."
Xiao Teng's voice was hoarse and low, and it sounded like a wild beast was roaring in his throat.
His cultivation had been sealed, but at this moment an extremely surging and powerful force suddenly surged in his body, and there seemed to be a bright light flashing between his eyebrows, like a star mark, spinning there.
Seeing this scene, Zhuang Feihua, Ji Xuanxin and others were deeply surprised and shocked.
"interesting."
"Are you planning to explode?"
Jiang Lan seemed to have expected this. He laughed, walked past Xiao Teng, then passed through the prison door and went straight in. Then he glanced at Lou Xinyu and Ye Shiyan.
"what you up to?"
Xiao Teng noticed his gaze and roared in a hoarse voice.
Although a powerful force was rising from his body, he still could not break the seal set by Zhuang Feihua. He could only struggle there in frustration and rage.
The power was so great that the two elders from the Goddess Palace who were escorting him almost lost control of it.
"Could it be the power of the Yaoguang Fairy Jade?" Zhuang Feihua was surprised.
"Come to think of it, you have pretty good luck with women."
"You just had to provoke me for no reason. Why do you have to do that?"
Jiang Lan ignored Xiao Teng's furious and fiery look, and looked at Lou Xinyu and Ye Shiyan with interest.
Lou Xinyu's face turned pale, and he subconsciously avoided his gaze, backing away, with anger, fear, shock and other expressions in his eyes.
"What are you hiding from?"
Jiang Lan smiled lightly and stretched out her hand, but Lou Xinyu dodged it.
All the elders of the Goddess Palace here, including Zhuang Feihua and Ji Xuanxin, pretended not to see it.
"Jiang Lan, you are despicable and shameless..."
"How dare you, the Holy Son of Taiyi Sect, do such a thing..."
"Stop it, come at me if you have anything to do."
Watching this scene, Xiao Teng roared continuously, his eyes were bloodshot and bloodshot.
As a young man, how could he bear it? In his eyes, Sister Lou Xinyu was gentle, generous, considerate, and treated him very well. She also helped him with many plans along the way.
He had a good impression of her, so how could he bear to see her being humiliated by Jiang Lan like this? As Xiao Teng continued to roar, the star mark between his eyebrows became more and more obvious, and even his cheekbones became transparent, as if there was a small, crystal-clear star floating in it, emitting a hazy glow.
At the same time, the aura on his body kept changing, like a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time and was about to erupt. Even the seal cast by Zhuang Feihua showed signs of being broken.
Jiang Lan looked at the changes in Xiao Teng, his expression unchanged, and said with interest, "In this case, I will give you a chance. Which one do you plan to choose between your fiancée and your senior sister?"
"You can only choose one of them to protect. Who are you going to choose?"
"Jiang Lan, you..."
"Despicable."
Xiao Teng's face was filled with extreme anger. If looks could kill, then Jiang Lan would have died countless times by now.
"I don't have much patience." Jiang Lan smiled faintly.
"You..." Xiao Teng was trembling all over, his teeth were clenched, and a trace of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth. At this time, no matter who he chose, he would offend the other person.
But whether it was his fiancée "Xie Jianjia" or his senior sister Lou Xinyu, he didn't want to give up.
His eyes swept across Lou Xinyu and "Xie Jianjia" with a struggling look.
"People, don't be so greedy."
"How about I let them both choose for themselves?"
Jiang Lan still had a smile on his face, and his gaze turned to Lou Xinyu and Ye Shiyan's faces.
Lou Xinyu's eyes were full of fear and his face turned pale. On the contrary, Ye Shiyan seemed very calm at this time. He just looked at him coldly, not moved at all.
"No……"
Xiao Teng clenched his teeth, his whole body trembling, he really wanted to cut Jiang Lan into pieces, the star mark between his eyebrows became brighter and brighter, as if it would penetrate his body.
"Neither this nor that, so I might as well not choose." The smile on Jiang Lan's face disappeared, and his eyes became indifferent.
"you……"
"I'll fight you."
Xiao Teng suddenly let out an angry roar, and a crisp cracking sound came from within his body, as if something was broken.
His hair was flying like a god, his skin was translucent and crystal clear, and with surging strength, he instantly broke free from the escort of the two elders. He clenched his fists and waved them towards Jiang Lan like an angry dragon.
His movements were so fast that by the time Zhuang Feihua and Ji Xuanxin could react, he had already arrived in front of Jiang Lan.
This punch was like a mountain falling down, the light of the stars surged, and the void was rumbling. Not to mention the mortal body, even a towering mountain would be shattered.
But Jiang Lan's face still had an indifferent expression, like a god high above, looking down at the ants under his feet.
He didn't even raise his hand. Everyone in the dungeon just felt a gust of terrible wind blowing past, lifting the corner of Jiang Lan's robe.
He raised one foot and kicked out casually. There was a loud bang. Xiao Teng, who was rushing over, was hit head-on as if by a real dragon. He let out a painful groan, blood spurted out of his mouth, and flew out horizontally, hitting the dungeon wall behind him, and then slowly fell down.
If there weren't so many array patterns engraved on this place, it would have probably collapsed into pieces after being hit just now.
"you……"
Xiao Teng's eyes were red and his whole body was in pain. He didn't know how many bones were broken.
He tried hard to raise his head and wanted to stand up, but a foot in front of him rose up and stepped on his head in an instant, causing his head to come into close contact with the ground with a dull collision sound and knocking his teeth out.
Jiang Lan, with his hands behind his back and his robe spotless, looked down at him from a high position and said indifferently, "I thought you had the Yaoguang Fairy Jade and could give me a surprise, but trash is trash. Even if I gave you a chance, you couldn't grasp it."
"puff……"
Xiao Teng's meridians were damaged and he was in great pain all over. When he heard these extremely humiliating words, his throat felt sweet and he spurted out a mouthful of blood. His eyes turned black and he fainted on the spot.
Seeing this scene, Zhuang Feihua and others felt complicated, but they had no sympathy at all. Couldn't they just be taken away obediently?
He chose to be aggressive and provocative, and was not only humiliated, but also had to endure physical pain.
This is what is called reaping what you sow.
Soon, the unconscious Xiao Teng was taken away. The Holy Spring of Purification of the Goddess Palace was located in the forbidden area in the back mountain. In order to retrieve the Yaoguang Fairy Jade, the elders of the Goddess Palace had to make some preparations.
Outside the dungeon, Fa Miaoyin was already waiting for Jiang Lan.
Zhuang Feihua followed the other elders to the Pure Heart Spring to prepare the formation. Currently, many affairs of the Goddess Palace were handled by Fa Miaoyin's master Ji Xuanxin.
Obviously, he was planning to hand over the position of Palace Master to her.
"I wonder how Saint Son Jiang Lan knew about the relationship between Lou Long and Ge Qixing?" Ji Xuanxin was full of curiosity about this matter.
She had received the message from Fa Miaoyin before, and she was a little skeptical at first, but after Fa Miaoyin's repeated assurances, she chose to believe it and then cooperated.
"There are not many things in this world that I want to hide from me. It's just the relationship between the two of us. I can figure it out with a little deduction. It's not difficult." Jiang Lan smiled faintly.
Ji Xuanxin's eyes showed surprise. Thinking of the many rumors, Jiang Lan was called the future Emperor of Heaven, so it was not surprising that he had such ability.
Fa Miaoyin, who was following behind her, had equally complicated feelings, thinking back to the day when Jiang Lan came to visit her in the imperial capital. Her biggest secret was exposed in front of Jiang Lan, and she seemed as transparent as if she were transparent.
All these things illustrate the mystery and extraordinaryness of Jiang Lan.
Xiao Teng thought he could compete with Jiang Lan, but in fact, from the very beginning, he was a fish in Jiang Lan's net and there was no possibility of escaping.
“Thanks to Saint Son Jiang Lan for telling me this, I was able to take the opportunity to bring down Lou Long. Otherwise, I would have been suppressed by her in the future.” Ji Xuanxin expressed his gratitude sincerely.
"You don't have to thank me, but there is a reason why I chose to help you," said Jiang Lan.
Ji Xuanxin asked in surprise, "Saint Son Jiang Lan, please speak."
“You should have a star field road map of the Star Martial Secret Vault and a Star Martial Broken Key in your hand.” Jiang Lan said casually.
Ji Xuanxin was slightly surprised, this was her secret. Ge Qixing, she, and her senior sister Lou Long had accidentally broken into the ruins of an ancient Star Sect, and everyone had gained a lot from it.
Lou Long was able to break through the eighth realm thanks to the treasures he obtained.
In her hand, she did have a star field road map of the Star Martial Secret Vault, as well as a piece of the Star Martial Broken Key. The three of them had each obtained a piece, and only by putting them together could they form a complete key to the Star Martial Secret Vault.
"Could it be that Saint Son Jiang Lan wants this thing?" A strange look flashed in Ji Xuanxin's eyes.
"I won't take your favor for nothing. With just your broken Star Martial Key, you won't be able to open it even if you find the Star Martial Secret Vault."
"When the Star Martial Secret Vault appears, I will find you, bring you along, and let you have a share of the profits." Jiang Lan seemed to know what she was thinking.
Ji Xuanxin lowered his eyes, put his hands in his wide sleeves, and said, "Saint Son Jiang Lan is absolutely right."
"The Star Martial Secret Vault is the treasure left behind by the ancient Star Sect before it collapsed. It contains many secrets and treasures of the ancient Star Sect. If you get this secret vault, you can even establish a super power, and then you can easily surpass all the immortal sects."
"According to rumors and records, the Ancient Star Sect has a deep connection with the Ancient Heavenly Court..."
Speaking of the ancient heaven, she was shocked again and glanced at Jiang Lan subconsciously.
If he is the future Emperor of Heaven, he will definitely reorganize the Heaven in the future, and this Secret Vault of Star Weapons may be his destined nourishment.
"Is this what the good fortune in the dark is like..."
Ji Xuanxin murmured to herself, thinking of a strange man she once met, who had predicted her fate and destiny and said that her good fortune would appear in a great change in the future.
“Don’t worry, Saint Son Jiang Lan, I will personally present the Star Martial Key and the Star Domain Map to you. However, I have one request.” Ji Xuanxin said.
"What request?" Jiang Lan looked at her.
Ji Xuanxin suddenly became a little hesitant, especially his disciple Fa Miaoyin, who was still following behind him at this time.
These words made it difficult for her to speak.
Jiang Lan seemed to know what she was thinking. He suddenly laughed and said, "No problem."
Ji Xuanxin breathed a sigh of relief, but he felt extremely strange and indescribable in his heart.
Jiang Lan didn't say anything else.
The title of Heavenly Emperor is indeed useful. In the dark, a great force has emerged that is converging towards him.
Ji Xuanxin had only just met him and had exchanged only a few sentences with him. They had no understanding or familiarity with each other, but he still wanted to follow and serve him.
This means understanding that by following the trend of heaven and earth, you will gain many benefits in the future.
It is like a mortal suddenly knows that someone in front of him will become the emperor who rules the world in the future. As long as he follows him, he will surely enjoy wealth and glory and be promoted in the future.
By the same token, in front of the Emperor of Heaven, any cultivator is a mortal. Even the star gods who rule the universe are nothing more than subjects of the Emperor of Heaven.
Ji Xuanxin obviously also understood this truth.
