Chapter 272 Just lying there, Yuqing Sword Slave, what do you think I want?
For several days, Jiang Lan sat in meditation in the depths of Gou Chen Palace, feeling the changes in the Dao Fruit of the Heart and the Dao Fruit of the Realm during this period of time. His cultivation and aura became more profound and unpredictable.
It can be said that he is now in a blowout period, and his cultivation and strength every day are more powerful and terrifying than the next day.
In the small world, little Chongming diligently condensed and absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, and contributed to the construction of the small world.
The Yuqing Sword Immortal, who was imprisoned in the small world, had disheveled hair and had long lost the arrogance of a generation of sword immortals. His eyes were sometimes dull and sometimes absent-minded.
Although her cultivation was sealed, she could feel the growing power and strength of Jiang Lan's small world.
This also made her even more confused. If she had known that Jiang Lan's talent was so terrifying and that he was invincible, how could she have believed the slander of the elders of the Xincang Sword Sect?
The Dao Cang Sword Sect has been destroyed.
The Immortal Alliance was established to rule over all the immortal sects in the world of Kyushu. The mountain-guarding dragons of Daxia stayed in seclusion in the mountains, and even the Chongming Star Domain and the Gouchen Star Domain among the four star domains fell into Jiang Lan's hands.
In just less than a month, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the outside world.
If Jiang Lan wanted to deal with her now, he only needed to stretch out a finger to suppress her and make her unable to move.
Her master, Fu Daocang, broke into the eighth realm in less than three hundred years and was praised as a rare genius. But what was he compared to Jiang Lan, who was already in his twenties and could compete with a saint? During the time she was imprisoned in the small world, Yuqing Sword Immortal had personally witnessed Jiang Lan's various creations and wonders. His growth was like a dream in the Arabian Nights.
No, even if it was a dream, it couldn't be so bizarre.
Snap...
In the stone chamber, Yuqing Sword Fairy, whose mind was a little confused, suddenly heard the sound of the chains that bound her hands and feet breaking. She was a little stunned, and before she could react, she felt a brilliant and dazzling light coming in front of her eyes, and the next moment her figure had been transmitted out of the small world.
Her eyes suddenly became sharp as she saw the young man sitting quietly on the cushion. The sharp sword energy was flowing in strands, like wind and snow, making her skin hurt.
"If you don't want to continue to return to the small world, just be honest."
Jiang Lan raised his eyes and glanced at her.
Yuqing Sword Immortal suddenly felt as if he was oppressed by a terrifying will as vast as the ocean. His spine almost bent, and the sharp sword energy condensed in his body immediately dissipated. He almost lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Jiang Lan could now easily suppress her with just a glance, making her lose any ability to resist.
She gritted her teeth, her eyes still stern, and asked, "Jiang Lan, what do you want to do?"
"Watch your tone. I don't want the world-famous Jade Green Sword Immortal to have an extra silver chain around his neck..." Jiang Lan was still sitting quietly on the cushion, his tone calm.
The Jade Green Sword Immortal gritted his teeth, hating himself for falling into the hands of this thief, with his life and death no longer in his own hands.
"what do you want to do?"
She lowered her eyes, trying not to meet Jiang Lan's gaze, otherwise she was afraid that she would not be able to hide and suppress the anger and hatred in her eyes.
"You've been locked up for so long, it's time to let you out for a walk, otherwise I'm afraid you'll get sick from being locked up." Jiang Lan said casually, as if it were a matter of course.
Jade Green Sword Fairy gritted her teeth, feeling an unprecedented sense of humiliation, causing her delicate body to tremble. What did this tone think of her as? A captive pet? At this moment, her beautiful hands under her robe were tightly clenched, and even because of too much force, her bony fingers turned pale.
"I'm already being magnanimous by sparing your life. Do you still want me to let you go?"
Jiang Lan laughed and waved his hand gently, and the Jade Green Sword Immortal flew towards him uncontrollably.
Sword energy surged through Yuqing Sword Immortal's body, and she wanted to struggle, but Jiang Lan today was no longer the seventh realm power that she had assassinated that day. Due to the absolute gap in cultivation, any resistance and struggle seemed powerless.
"I have been considering whether to refine you into a sword slave, erase your mind, and make you work for me wholeheartedly."
Jiang Lan gently stroked the convex and plump outline with his palm, but spoke lightly, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter.
"You might as well just kill me..." Yuqing Sword Immortal looked at him with cold anger.
As a sword fairy, she naturally knew what a sword slave was. With Jiang Lan's current cultivation and means, she could definitely do such a thing.
She knew that Jiang Lan was threatening her, but since the destruction of the Dao Cang Jian Sect and she fell into Jiang Lan's hands, she no longer expected to survive.
If you can avoid humiliation, that would be a good outcome.
"I won't kill you. Have you forgotten what I said? Your master Fu Daocang is still alive. I was wondering what his expression would be when I meet him in the future and give him you, who have been refined into a sword slave?" Jiang Lan smiled faintly.
Upon hearing this, a pale look appeared on Yuqing Sword Immortal's face, and the anger and hatred in his eyes were so intense that they seemed to reach the sky.
"You are despicable..."
Jiang Lan was unmoved, and continued to talk to himself, "How can it not be despicable when you use your apprentice's life as bait to lure me in and want to kill me?"
"I have no grudges against your Dao Cang Jian Sect. I have never stepped on a blade of grass in your Dao Cang Jian Sect. Why do you want to kill me?"
As he spoke, he reached out and grasped the collar of Yuqing Sword Immortal's Taoist robe, forcing her to lift her face and look directly at him.
"You have no right to call me mean."
Yuqing Sword Immortal gritted his teeth and his body trembled, but at this moment he was speechless because of Jiang Lan's words.
She was the one who attempted the assassination first, but was defeated and captured later, so she couldn't blame anyone for her fate.
"It seems that you also have a weak spot. I wonder if your master Fu Daocang will retaliate against me when he sees that the Daocang Sword Sect was destroyed by me."
"The peerless genius from two thousand years ago, I don't know if he is qualified to be my opponent now, or if he will be crushed to death by my finger."
Jiang Lan smiled faintly and threw the Yuqing Sword Immortal to the ground.
The Jade Green Sword Immortal's face turned pale, her hair was disheveled, and her eyes became dull and lifeless. She thought of Jiang Lan's terrifying and unbelievable talent.
Even if her master was not dead, and even entered the holy realm by chance, if she met Jiang Lan in the future, she would probably be crushed to death.
"The grudge between Dao Cang Sword Sect and you has nothing to do with Master..."
"This is all my fault. Don't take your anger out on anyone else." She struggled to stand up.
Jiang Lan stood up and looked down at her, his eyes without any emotion, and said, "Just lie down like this, and don't lift your head up."
Hearing this, Yuqing Sword Fairy's delicate body trembled, and she bit her red lips tightly with her silver teeth, letting the blood flow down. At the same time, she buried her head, her long black hair covering her face, maintaining this humiliating posture.
Jiang Lan shook his head slightly and sat back on the futon.
It is less than a month away from the March Changes, and at that time, a new era will begin for the entire Kyushu land.
All the worlds will also be ready to take action to deal with this catastrophe.
Fu Daocang came from the world of swordsmanship and was the most outstanding genius in Lingxiao Sword Pavilion. In order to find the inheritance left by the Lord of Eternal Sword, he came to the land of Jiuzhou relying on the reincarnation method of the ancient Buddhist sect.
In the world of swordsmanship, swordsmanship has flourished to the extreme, and one of the most powerful forces is Lingxiao Sword Pavilion.
Whether it is the origin of the original protagonist Lin Fan, or the subsequent contact with the world of swordsmanship, it will inevitably involve Lingxiao Sword Pavilion.
Jiang Lan estimated the time and wanted to seize the initiative step by step, so he had to lay out the chess pieces in advance.
Yuqing Sword Immortal was a chess piece that Fu Daocang had planted in the land of Jiuzhou, and now Jiang Lan needed this chess piece to serve him.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
"Young Alliance Leader..."
While he was thinking, there was a knock on the door outside the palace, and the gentle voice of Xu Yao, the young palace master of Gou Chen Palace, was heard.
When Yuqing Sword Fairy, who was lying on the ground, heard the voice, her delicate body trembled. The strong sense of humiliation made her bite her red lips and she wished she could crawl into the crack in the ground.
If someone were to see this scene, her reputation as a swordsman of her generation would be almost ruined.
"Put it on."
Jiang Lan glanced at Yuqing Sword Immortal and thought of something in the Sumeru Ring. He casually made it appear in his palm and then threw it in front of her.
Yuqing Sword Immortal was startled, and when he saw the object clearly, he realized it was a bronze mask of simple and ancient style, with an array formation engraved inside, which seemed to have the effect of concealing the true appearance.
At this moment, she didn't have time to think too much, she picked it up, and put it on her face. Only then did she feel a lot more at ease, not as panicked and ashamed as before.
Jiang Lan nodded slightly, but still didn't let her stand up.
"Young Palace Master, please come in."
Hearing this, Xu Yao pushed the door open and walked in. She was wearing a light pink long dress, with a diamond-shaped mark between her eyebrows, black hair, a charming face, and natural beauty. When she walked, the nine snow-white and soft fox tails behind her fluttered like clouds, and her charm was amazing.
After she entered the palace, the first thing she noticed was the graceful figure lying in front of Jiang Lan. Her long black hair hung down, covering her face, as if she was wearing a mask. Although she was wearing a loose gray robe, it could not hide her proud and voluptuous figure.
This scene made Xu Yao feel a little embarrassed, and he thought he came at the wrong time.
She tried her best to look away and not look at him too much, but she couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart. Could it be that the young leader likes this style? This strange woman in the hall seemed to have never been seen before. When did she appear?
"What's the matter, Young Palace Master?"
Jiang Lan sat quietly on the cushion and did not stand up.
Xu Yao bowed and then said, "It's still Luwu Mountain. The leader of Luwu Mountain has already punished those elders in public..."
"If you are here to plead for Lu Wushan, then there is no need to say more." Jiang Lan waved his hand and interrupted her directly.
Xu Yao hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, Lu Wushan is stubborn and stubborn. How could I displease the young leader because of Lu Wushan's affairs? I came here today because the head of the Murong family has been staying in Gou Chen Palace and wants to meet the young leader alone. I asked me to pass on a message to the young leader."
As she spoke, she took out an antique sandalwood box that was filled with a warm scent from her arms, handed it to Jiang Lan, and began to explain.
"This is what Patriarch Murong asked me to send to the Young Alliance Leader as a token of her sincerity. She knows that the Young Alliance Leader has a high level of cultivation and that ordinary natural treasures are not worthy of your attention. This item is an 8,000-year-old Guyuan Fengxian Grass..."
"Zhongming just broke out of his shell not long ago, this thing has a miraculous effect on his energy-strengthening and foundation-building."
Jiang Lan did not take the sandalwood box upon hearing this. Instead, he looked at Xu Yao and said with a half-smile, "This Murong family master is quite resourceful. He has only been in Gou Chen Palace for a few days, and he has already asked the young palace master to pass on a message for him."
A faint glow appeared on Xu Yao's fair face. After all, she had received a lot of benefits from others. It was impossible for her not to pass on the message to others, right? "Put the things down. Since she asked the young palace master to send them, no matter what I say, I have to give the young palace master this face."
Jiang Lan actually knew that Murong Qiutang did not leave Gou Chen Palace with the elders of Luwu Mountain, so he was not in a hurry.
He knew that if the other party wanted something, he would give it to him sooner or later. After all, a true hunter often appears in the form of prey.
An eight thousand year old Impatiens balsamina is a priceless treasure and is very attractive to all kinds of monsters.
"Thank you, Young Alliance Leader."
Xu Yao smiled with her lips pursed, and her eyebrows curved, making the charm in her eyes even more startling, as if there was a mist in them.
After delivering the message, Xu Yao stood up and said goodbye without disturbing Jiang Lan's rest.
However, before she left, Jiang Lan asked her to take Yuqing Sword Immortal with her and change her clothes. After all, she had been imprisoned in the small world for such a long time.
Although his cultivation had reached the eighth level and he had already practiced fasting, his body was spotless, his skin was like glass, and his intestines were clear.
But the blood stains on his robe and his disheveled hair were still somewhat unsightly.
Yuqing Sword Immortal did not resist. He stood up tactfully and then quietly followed Xu Yao as he retreated.
Although Jiang Lan did not leave any restrictions on her, Yuqing Sword Immortal had already given up the idea of escaping.
With Jiang Lan's current cultivation level, even if she escaped to another life planet, he could reach out his big hand and catch her across the star field.
Resistance and escape are futile.
As for suicide, she fully believed that after her death, Jiang Lan would transform her into a sword slave and use her to deal with her master Fu Daocang.
Yuqing Sword Immortal only felt that the road ahead was dark and confusing.
…
In the evening, the sun sets.
Murong Qiutang, who learned from Xu Yao that Jiang Lan intended to meet her, gave special instructions to her stepson Luo Guyun, and then followed the elders of the Gou Chen Palace to the palace where Jiang Lan had been staying for a while.
"Why choose this time when it's almost dark..."
Luo Guyun sat quietly on the stone bench in the courtyard, looking at the setting sun in the distance, his brows slightly furrowed, and the discomfort in his heart became even worse.
In order to meet Jiang Lan, Murong Qiutang sent his clansmen to bring the 8,000-year-old spiritual herb Guyuan Fengxiancao, which had been treasured by the Murong family for a long time.
During this period, I was extremely nervous and worried that I would not be able to see anyone.
Luo Guyun could see clearly that kind of humility and expectation.
Murong Qiutang, who was once a powerful figure on the ancient star Mantuo, known as the Queen of Mantuo, and admired and respected by countless people, became so humble one day. She was completely different from the person she was on the ancient star Mantuo.
In order to go to the appointment, Murong Qiutang began to put on some makeup on her fair face, which had never worn any makeup before. Her thin lips were pursed into an attractive rosy red, and she even put on a black lotus skirt, which she disliked the most but seemed very bold.
These scenes made Luo Guyun feel indescribably bored and depressed. His emotions at this moment were like a volcano about to erupt.
"If I were a saint..."
"Aunt Qiutang wouldn't be so servile and dependent on others."
Luo Guyun took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
He always felt that during this period of time, whenever his emotions fluctuated violently, an indescribable warmth would surge in his chest, calming him down.
At first he thought it was the effect of the mysterious jade pendant, but later he found out that it was not. The warm current was flowing out from his body and had nothing to do with the mysterious jade pendant.
Moreover, every time the warm current ended, he would find that there were sparkling spots of bright light in his internal organs and meridians, as brilliant as the galaxy, and his cultivation and strength were also increasing.
This change surprised him, but also puzzled him.
He was considered a well-read man, but in all the ancient books he had read, he had never seen any record of such miraculous things.
That warm current would only appear when his emotions were greatly fluctuating, and this had never happened in the first twenty years of his life.
Even on the day his father passed away, he felt extremely sad, as if he had never felt this way before.
"wrong……"
"I heard from Aunt Qiutang that I seemed to have been in a coma on the day my father passed away..."
"Could it be related to the coma? When Aunt Qiutang comes back, I will ask her about this matter." Luo Guyun thought to himself, but his eyes were looking outside the courtyard.
At this time, the sky gradually darkened.
She dressed up and went to the appointment alone. It was night time. Would Jiang Lan take advantage of her? Luo Guyun's eyes suddenly became fierce, and his fists suddenly clenched, with his finger bones crackling.
At the same time, on the other side.
Jiang Lan's bedroom.
The bright moon is rising, and the hazy moonlight is pouring in from the window, like broken silver all over the ground. The hall is filled with mist and the spiritual rhythm is surging, accompanied by the mellow and lingering aroma of wine, as if it is a feast in the fairy palace.
During the time that Jiang Lan stayed in Gou Chen Palace to rest, he did not have anyone to serve him, so the huge bedroom seemed very empty and quiet.
There are only two people in the hall now.
Opposite him, Queen Murong Qiutang of Mantuo sat elegantly, her eyebrows like distant mountains, her eyes like stars, her skin as delicate as a baby's, and her cheeks as white as porcelain.
Maybe it was because she drank some wine, her lips were smooth and delicate, her cheeks were lightly flushed, she was extremely beautiful.
Against the backdrop of a slim palace dress that was as black as a lotus, her chest was snow-white and delicate, and her figure looked exquisite, curvy and charming.
"To be honest with you, Young Alliance Leader, the Murong family has been loyal to Luwu Mountain for generations. They obey Luwu Mountain's orders in everything and follow his lead. Now that Luwu Mountain and Yingzhao Dojo have gone to war, the Murong family has immediately summoned experts to provide reinforcements..."
"But the situation is like this now. It's not that the Murong family is opportunistic and double-dealing. It's that Luwu Mountain is now complacent and stubborn. I don't want my family to be ruined by them. Thousands of years of management will be wasted..."
"The Murong family had actually heard about the Taiyi Sect's intention to establish the Immortal Dao League a long time ago, and they were fascinated by it. Unfortunately, it was too far away from the land of Jiuzhou, and they had always wanted to join it but had no way..."
Murong Qiutang held the wine glass in her bare hands, toasted Jiang Lan, and complained helplessly.
Jiang Lan also had to admit that this woman did have some skills.
First, the loyalty and position of the Murong family were stated, and then the current situation of Luwu Mountain was explained, paving the way for leaving Luwu Mountain and making everything reasonable.
It's not that the Murong family is a fence-sitter, but Lu Wushan is really a hopeless case. Following Lu Wushan will only lead to death.
"Since its establishment, the Immortal Alliance has been adhering to the principles of coordinating the world's immortal sects, establishing rules and regulations, and mediating hatred. All immortal forces can join as long as they comply with the rules."
"If Patriarch Murong wants, he can find our Xiandao League's branch in the Four Star Regions at any time and submit his resignation. As long as it is approved, he can naturally become a member of the Xiandao League..."
Jiang Lan smiled slightly and replied in a businesslike manner.
Murong Qiutang naturally knew that it was not difficult to join the Xiandao League now, but the difficulty lay in whether he could get the protection of the Xiandao League after joining.
The Yingzhao Star Domain and the Kaiming Star Domain were at war, and the strong men sent by the Xiandao League to mediate were all helpless. The Yingzhao Dojo obviously no longer cared about the Xiandao League's mediation, let alone the Xiandao League's covenant which was obviously just a piece of waste paper at this time.
After all, it is because the Xiandao League was established only a short time ago, and its influence and deterrence in the Four Directions Star Region is far less than that in the Kyushu Land.
Unless you truly get the personal recognition and protection of Jiang Lan, the young leader of the Xiandao League, it would be useless to join the Xiandao League at this time.
Of course, Murong Qiutang had other plans. With the great changes in the world, the four star regions would sooner or later become part of the Kyushu land. Everyone wanted to have a share of this pie, and she was no exception.
If the Murong family wants to rise to prominence, they must seize this opportunity. After all, the land of Jiuzhou is the center of all future worlds and the future heaven, and they cannot get any benefits from the four star fields.
"I will get straight to the point. How can the young leader help the Murong family?"
During the few days that Murong Qiutang stayed in Gou Chen Palace, she also realized that Jiang Lan was very direct and did not like to beat around the bush.
After she gave him the gift, he would see her. If she did nothing, he would just ignore her.
So after a few pleasantries and getting a little more familiar with each other, she just spoke frankly.
She also had a scale in her heart. If Jiang Lan's request was too excessive and she couldn't do it, then she would have to give up.
"The world is bustling with people, all for the sake of profit. The world is bustling with people, all for the sake of profit."
"It depends on what the Murong family can give me." Jiang Lan put down the wine glass and smiled slightly.
"Although the Murong family has some prestige on the ancient Mantuo Star, this prestige is probably insignificant to the current young leader. Even if the Murong family follows the young leader's lead in the future, they will not be able to help you in any way." Murong Qiutang sighed lightly. She actually knew it in her heart.
Jiang Lan was so young, but he already had the strength comparable to that of a saint. Whether it was power or strength, he had reached a peak that was unattainable or unimaginable to ordinary people. What else did he need? What else did the Murong family need?
It is said that the Murong family follows his lead, but in fact, the Murong family relies on him and clings to him.
"Since Master Murong knows this, why are you still so persistent and want to see me? What are you thinking? What do you think I want from the Murong family?" Jiang Lan looked at her with interest.
Hearing this, Murong Qiutang couldn't help but purse her red lips together, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.
Jiang Lan's words instantly struck her heart.
