Chapter 219 Lu Chenyu, keeping herself clean is not suitable for her, no need to say it clearly
"It's not an exaggeration. Sect Master Lu once made a great wish to help the suffering women in the world, let them escape from the sea of suffering and usher in a new life. Although times have passed and things are unpredictable, such determination and courage are still admirable and moving until now."
"The Chenyu Sect suffered a disaster and was severely damaged, but they still allowed the elders and disciples who left the sect to take away some resources so that they could have a foundation for their future..."
"There are not many immortal sects in the world today that can achieve this." Jiang Lan smiled and admired sincerely.
Upon hearing this, many elders at the banquet couldn't help but feel touched, their eyes slightly red, and they looked at Sect Master Lu Chenyu with deep gratitude.
Many elders of Chenyu Sect have stories to tell.
In the face of such a disaster, there are still many people who stay to overcome the difficulties together with the sect, which shows their cohesion.
Ling Zhuyun looked at Lu Chenyu with admiration.
"I'm just used to seeing their suffering and numbness, and I can't bear it. I can't accept such praise from Saint Son Jiang Lan." Lu Chenyu lowered his eyes slightly, his mood was a little complicated at the moment.
At that time, she was famous all over the world and outshone everyone. Many talented and brilliant men would spend a fortune just to make her smile.
At that time, she was full of confidence and had very high aspirations, which is why she had such a grand ambition.
Unfortunately, the years have smoothed over her edges and ambitions. Now even the Chenyu Sect can hardly operate, so how can she save the suffering women of the world?
Difficult, difficult, difficult...
"I also know the difficulties that Chenyu Sect is facing now. How easy is it to relocate the entire sect and then re-establish a sect?" Jiang Lan played with the white jade cup and shook it gently.
The crystal clear and mellow wine is like grapes, with a translucent luster and amazing aroma.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chenyu vaguely guessed Jiang Lan's intention.
Was he trying to get me to ask him for help? "Saint Son Jiang Lan is right. It's not easy to start a new sect..."
"I was also thinking, why not just disband the Chenyu Sect." She sighed softly, her eyes sweeping across the many elders in front of her, her heart filled with a thousand sorrows and reluctance.
After all, this is her hard work. How can she bear to disband it just like that?
"After all, this world is a world where the strong prey on the weak. Regardless of gender, the weak are doomed to be trampled upon. How many people are suffering in the world? Yao Chi Sect is a major immortal sect with a profound heritage. Many beautiful girls have joined it. It is a holy place that women in the world seek. But even Yao Chi Sect cannot save all the suffering women in the world."
"Even the requirements for accepting disciples are extremely strict."
"Having determination and courage, but without strength and ability, is all in vain."
Jiang Lan spoke slowly, comparing it to the current Yao Chi Sect, not paying any attention to Ling Zhuyun beside him.
It’s not that he intended to say anything bad about the Yao Chi Sect, after all, this was the complete truth.
Ling Zhuyun also wanted the Yao Chi Sect to help the Chen Yu Sect, but if she made an exception, it would set a precedent.
When other women's sects encounter danger and trouble, they all seek the protection and help of Yao Chi Sect. Then should Yao Chi Sect still establish a sect and pass it on? In this world, if you want to gain a firm foundation, the most important thing is strength. With strength, you can talk about ambition.
Otherwise, you will just become a laughing stock in the end.
In the eyes of many people, Lu Chenyu is actually a laughing stock.
Of course, Jiang Lan has no right to laugh at others. There is nothing wrong in pursuing light when in darkness.
"Saint Son Jiang Lan is right. I was too naive before. If I had known that this road would be so difficult and bumpy, perhaps I would not have said such big words in the first place."
Lu Chenyu's eyes dimmed slightly, but she did not refute. She only understood these principles now.
She used to think that as long as the sect could be united and everyone worked together, any difficulties and obstacles could be overcome.
Ideals are beautiful, but reality is cruel.
Just an eighth-level powerful man from the Blood Immortal Sect was able to easily destroy the thousand-year-old foundation of the Chenyu Sect in one day.
"metropolitan……"
All the elders at the banquet were feeling sad, and most of them felt powerless.
"Jiang Lan..."
Ling Zhuyun felt sorry for it. She thought Jiang Lan spoke up to help Chenyu Sect overcome this difficulty, but she didn't expect him to just rub salt into other people's wounds.
Jiang Lan glanced at her, smiled and said, "Do you think I'm wrong?"
"But...but you can't say that..." Ling Zhuyun responded in a low voice.
"What should I say?"
"If you were in Sect Master Lu's position, what would you do?" Jiang Lan asked.
Ling Zhuyun was speechless for a moment. What should she do?
"Let you help me..." She looked at Jiang Lan subconsciously, whispering softly, but her ears turned red.
Jiang Lan laughed and said, "It's no problem for me to help you, but how are you going to repay me then?"
"Human relationships will eventually wear out, let alone those who have nothing to do with you..."
Ling Zhuyun was stumped by his question, and couldn't help but start thinking seriously about how to repay him.
Jiang Lan has indeed helped me many times.
When they first met in Anyang City, he reminded himself to be careful of Ye Ming...
Later, Anqiu City was attacked by the Blood Immortal Sect, and he killed the Blood-Clothed Young Master, as well as this time.
Ling Zhuyun never liked owing favors to others. After she thought about it, she found that she did owe Jiang Lan a little.
Since when did she subconsciously take this for granted?
"But sometimes, we do things without expecting anything in return, just like when I learned that you were attacked by the Blood Fairy Cult, seriously injured, and fled to the Chaos Cloud Mountains..."
Seeing her like this, Jiang Lan felt happy and wanted to tease her, but his face was more serious than ever before, and he spoke in a gentle voice.
Ling Zhuyun was seriously considering how to repay his favor.
Jiang Lan's sudden words made her stunned. Then she reacted and her face turned red.
Although she was wearing a veil, her slender, white neck, like a white swan, turned bright red.
She looked around in panic and saw that all the elders of Chenyu Sect looked as if they had not heard or seen anything and just lowered their heads. She breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed the urge to stand up and leave.
"I...I understand..."
"Don't say such hurtful... hurtful... things in front of others in the future."
Ling Zhuyun quickly sent a message to Jiang Lan, but she couldn't utter the word "shy".
She drank tea instead of wine, and picked up the teacup, trying to hide her panic. But after drinking for a long time, she found that she was wearing a veil. Then she lifted the veil in a panic, sipped the tea with her shiny little mouth, and slowly calmed down.
Jiang Lan burst into laughter in his heart. This naive and innocent saint girl could be compared to Li Mengning in terms of innocence.
In front of people, it is holy, pure, and noble, like the snow lotus of Tianshan Mountain, which can only be viewed from a distance and not played with.
A simple joke behind people's back can make her blush and feel shy for a long time.
"If Sect Master Lu is planning to disband the Chenyu Sect, I can actually help you. The Blood Immortal Sect is not in a position to fight directly with the Yaochi Sect right now, so they will definitely put the death of an Eighth Realm power on the Chenyu Sect."
"After the disbanding of the Chenyu Sect, those ordinary disciples and elders will probably be secretly targeted by the Blood Immortal Sect, seeking opportunities for revenge."
"It just so happens that Changlong Merchant Alliance has recently opened up several trade routes and is in need of manpower. If the elders and disciples of Chenyu Sect are interested in finding a way to make a living, I can tell the managers of Changlong Merchant Alliance and ask them to help."
"The Blood Immortal Cult currently does not have the courage to confront the Changlong Merchant Alliance head-on. By then, the elders will not only be protected, but also have a job to make a living, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone."
Jiang Lan looked at Lu Chenyu, who lowered his head and seemed to be eating the dishes by himself, but in fact his mind was no longer here, and spoke with a smile.
He knew Lu Chenyu's thoughts. She wanted to be one with the world but didn't want to be contaminated by worldly things.
To me, solving the current predicament of Chenyu Sect is really just a piece of cake and a trivial matter.
With his power and influence, he could protect the Chenyu Sect with just a few words and prevent it from disbanding. He could even reverse the previous downward trend and usher in an improvement.
But she wants me to help her, but she doesn't want to lose face and lower herself to ask for help, and she even wants me to take the initiative to ask for help?
The lotus grows in the mud, it is pure, noble and beautiful, and is used to being praised and admired, so naturally it does not want its petals to be soiled by the mud.
This is Lu Chenyu’s current state.
Keeping oneself clean is a beautiful word and a beautiful character.
But Jiang Lan felt that this was not suitable for her.
On the contrary, he liked the beauty of the falling lotus petals, which seemed to be struggling against the backdrop of the mud.
"Thank you for your advice and kindness, Saint Jiang Lan. I will consider it carefully if the Chenyu Sect really reaches the day of disbanding."
"Then I, as the sect leader, will also find a way to protect them as much as possible and prevent the people of the Blood Immortal Sect from harming any elders or disciples."
Lu Chenyu's long eyelashes trembled slightly. She lowered her head to look at the wine in front of her and responded softly.
The clear and crystal liquid surface reflects her face. The passing of time has not left any traces on it. She is still as beautiful as before.
She had eaten the Youth-Retaining Fruit, a rare fruit that could preserve a woman's youth forever. It was rare and priceless.
Most of the elders of Chenyu Sect are already old, but none of them is like her, with a fair and beautiful face and delicate and white skin.
But eternal youth is only relative.
The vicissitudes and fatigue of the worldly affairs can't be concealed in her eyes. It is impossible for a person's mentality to truly remain young.
She was not an ordinary woman either, so she could naturally hear the hidden meaning in Jiang Lan's words.
It's a favor, and it's a reward...
If he wants help, it's fine, but how can I repay him? Is there anything in Chenyu Sect that can catch his eye?
Lu Chenyu sighed in her heart. She had seen many men in the world. There were countless men who had pursued her, bowed down at her feet, and wanted to make her smile.
How could she not know what Jiang Lan's purpose was? "Master Lu, it's a righteous act. If that's the case, then I won't interfere."
Jiang Lan smiled slightly, but his fingers tapped the white jade wine glass slowly.
The wine in the liquid also created tiny ripples.
Lu Chenyu raised her eyes and glanced at him, but said nothing more.
This banquet was not very enjoyable, but until the end, Jiang Lan still gave Chenyu Sect enough face.
Although the sect was destroyed, out of courtesy and gratitude, Chenyu Sect still cleaned up two relatively complete palaces in the back mountain for Jiang Lan and Ling Zhuyun to rest.
They are just two palaces, far apart and not very close to each other.
Ling Zhuyun was also a little worried that Chenyu Sect would arrange for her and Jiang Lan to live together.
The Xu hour has just passed and it is not yet the Hai hour.
Ling Zhuyun was sitting quietly in meditation on the cushion, but her mind was not clear. There were even many random thoughts in her head, which made her look outside the hall or out the window from time to time.
But apart from the cool and clear moonlight, there was silence and no one in sight.
She didn't know what she was expecting in her heart, and she always subconsciously wanted to look that way.
"Master once said that if one day you find that you can't help thinking about someone in your mind besides practicing, then there is a high probability that you have developed a demon in your heart."
"I must kill this inner demon in order to calm my mind and successfully break through the realm and continue my cultivation."
"Is Jiang Lan my inner demon?"
"But the book also says that this is probably because you've fallen in love with someone..."
Ling Zhuyun asked herself and began to ponder, and then slowly, her face began to get hot as she thought of the words Jiang Lan had said in front of everyone in Chenyu Sect during the day.
At this time, the hour of Hai had passed and the third watch had just arrived.
Jiang Lan stood in the bedroom hall with his hands behind his back, looking at the hazy moonlight and vast mountains outside the window, and seemed to be thinking about something.
After a while, accompanied by the night breeze, a simple and pleasant fragrance spread in the hall.
A graceful figure with snow-white hair stood quietly in the hall.
Her face was as rosy as the moon, as soft as jade, with a red plum blossom hairpin between her eyebrows. Her skin was crystal clear, delicate and flawless without any makeup on.
Although she was wearing a slightly loose plain long gauze skirt, it still couldn't hide her amazingly graceful figure. She was like a blooming fairy flower, showing her beauty unknown to the world.
"It seems that Sect Master Lu has made up his mind?"
Jiang Lan was not surprised to see Lu Chenyu appear in the hall, and had a faint smile on his face.
"Since Saint Jiang Lan asked me to come here at three o'clock in the morning, I will naturally come as promised." Lu Chenyu replied calmly.
"Master Lu is indeed a smart man." Jiang Lan smiled faintly, then slowly turned around, seeming to examine and admire the beauty in front of him.
Lu Chenyu was very calm. He didn't look at Jiang Lan, but looked at the boundless void behind him.
She knew that Jiang Lan would not knock on the wine glass three times for no reason after he finished speaking. They were all smart people, and many things would be clear at a glance without being explained in detail.
"Master Lu, have you made up your mind?" Jiang Lan still smiled faintly.
"Tonight, as promised, I have already thought about it."
Lu Chenyu finally looked at him and said softly, "The Chenyu Sect cannot be disbanded. I hope Saint Jiang Lan can help me."
Jiang Lan nodded slightly, and then said, "In that case, lift up your skirt."
I had something to do during the day and just got home, so this chapter has a few words. I have a store to transfer tomorrow and I need to move a lot of things, so it may be delayed for a day and I may not be able to update tomorrow, so I'm sorry. I will make up for it when I have time.
