Chapter 275 Possessiveness? So what if he's a stepson? He can change his mentality and luck right in front of him.
In the inn, after discussing, the people from the ancient world of Mituo quietly took action.
It is not easy to sneak here from the ancient world of Amitabha. It requires the joint protection of several powerful people, and to find a suitable body through the coordinates or relics left here in the past, and then let their souls descend into it.
It is indeed possible to conceal the will of this world for a short period of time.
But over time, the body and the soul will become incompatible in their origins, which will cause all kinds of abnormal fluctuations, and even the body will collapse. The soul will be crushed to death by the power of the will of this world, so they dare not be careless.
And deep in their souls, each of them has a secret treasure hidden in their souls.
At critical moments, it is necessary to rely on the secret treasure of the soul and communicate with the great masters of the ancient world of Amitabha. This is also the key to ensuring that the orphan of the Holy Maiden of the Time Clan can be captured.
A moment later, on the high mountain outside Gusu City, the void twisted and several faint and hazy figures emerged.
The people from the ancient world of Amitabha appeared here. They looked far towards the direction of Gusu City, then sat cross-legged in the void and began to chant something.
With a buzzing sound, one after another complex and ancient runes flew out from between their brows, constructing and interweaving there, as if a huge prison was materializing.
With them as the center, an inexplicable wave began to spread, then extended to the sky, gradually covering the nearby Gusu City.
In the void, one can also see one strange vein after another, emerging there, looming, and then quickly disappearing, like the meridians of a great road.
Outside the domain, in the boundless deep space, the stars are twinkling, the universe is vast and boundless, and a cloud boat warship is speeding through the star field. The warship is very large, made entirely of purple copper, with flags fluttering, and three ancient characters "Xiandao League" are blaring on it.
On this warship, in a room, Luo Guyun sat quietly, seemingly meditating, but in fact he was uneasy.
From time to time he looked outside through the window of the compartment, his brows furrowed.
This ancient warship was a gift from the Gou Chen Palace. In addition to many masters of the Xian Dao League, there were also many clansmen escorted along the way by the Gou Chen Palace. It can be said that it is full of masters.
As the war in the Yingzhao Star Region and the Kaiming Star Region intensifies, the border areas become increasingly turbulent.
Murong Qiutang, who was far away in the Gou Chen Palace, naturally worried about the situation in his clan, so he prepared to leave.
But what Luo Guyun didn't expect was that even Jiang Lan would go along with him, and Murong Qiutang was even more pleased about it.
Naturally, Gou Chen Palace also dispatched a large number of powerful men to escort them along the way.
Originally, the Kaiming Star Domain was in turmoil and chaos, and it was a good thing to have many powerful people following and go to Mantuo Ancient Star to take charge, but Luo Guyun couldn't be happy at all.
In his opinion, Jiang Lan would not do anything without benefit and would never try to please him.
As the young leader of the Immortal Alliance, why would he condescend to come to the ancient star Mantuo for no reason and help the Murong family to resist foreign enemies?
What kind of benefits would be needed to make him agree to this?
What could the Murong family give him? In fact, Luo Guyun didn't want to think about it anymore. Ever since Murong Qiutang came back from visiting Jiang Lan that night, she would meet him from time to time in the following days.
Sometimes he would stroll around the Gou Chen Palace under the pretext of going out to relax, and one could even see the two of them talking and laughing as they strolled through the corridors, woods, and pavilions. Their demeanor and expressions seemed to be quite natural and they seemed to be having a great time.
Luo Guyun saw it all and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
In terms of status, he is only Murong Qiutang's stepson. He has no right to interfere with her words and deeds, let alone who she associates with.
Especially now the situation is special. The four star fields are all in turmoil. The decisive battle between Yingzhao Dojo and Luwu Mountain has made all the ethnic groups in the entire Kaiming Star Field panic, fearing that they will be invaded and enveloped by the war.
Although the Murong family has a long heritage and a solid foundation, in such a turbulent situation, they are just like grass that bends with the wind and are completely unable to change the situation.
The only way is to find a towering tree, lean against it, and let it protect you from the wind and rain.
It is obvious that Jiang Lan, the young leader of the Xiandao Alliance, is the towering tree of the Murong family now.
For the sake of her family, Murong Qiutang had no choice but to seek refuge from him.
To do this, some sacrifices may even have to be made.
Luo Guyun was not a child of a few years old. He had been wandering around with his father since he was young and had seen the warmth and coldness of human nature. Therefore, he could understand what Murong Qiutang did. Everything was for the family, for the continuation of survival...
He just felt regretful and at the same time hated himself for not being strong enough. If he had practiced hard in his early years and spent the time appreciating flowers and the moon and hanging out in romantic places on practicing, perhaps he would not be in the situation he is in today.
Faced with such a critical situation, he was able to stand up and resolutely stand by Murong Qiutang's side to protect her from the wind and rain.
Luo Guyun clenched his fists, stared out the window, and then loosened them weakly after a moment.
On the deck of the ancient warship, two figures were standing side by side, seemingly talking while looking at the falling stars that were constantly flying by.
The woman had a graceful figure and was very tall. She was wearing a black long skirt, which made her skin look white and delicate, with exquisite curves. From time to time, she covered her mouth with her hands and giggled, and her chest rose and fell like a trembling flower.
The man next to her was handsome and elegant, with his hands casually behind his back. His words and actions revealed a sense of superiority and nobility, which showed that he came from a wealthy family.
"Aunt Qiutang, if you weren't trying to please this guy, you wouldn't be like this..."
Luo Guyun felt depressed, as if there was something stuck in his throat.
When his father was alive, he had the impression that Murong Qiutang was elegant, reserved, dignified and noble. When treating her clansmen, she was strict and harsh, with a frosty face, cold and unattainable.
Only when facing him will she reveal a gentle smile.
He had never seen such a charming person who laughed so hard at a few words while talking to a man like this...
Of course, he also knew and could understand that Murong Qiutang had to do this. After all, in order to please others, it was impossible for her to keep a cold face as before.
Luo Guyun closed his eyes and stopped looking.
Whenever he has time, he will immerse his mind in the mysterious jade pendant, and comprehend the skills and supernatural powers he has mastered so far, and draw inferences from them to hone himself.
Although he was able to practice a profound martial art to a very high level in that mysterious space, he still needed to start practicing from scratch after coming to the outside world. Fortunately, because of his experience, he could practice very quickly again.
In his understanding, the mysterious space only allowed him to master a technique, but if he really wanted to practice, he still needed to come to the outside world and absorb all kinds of energy between heaven and earth...
On the deck, although Jiang Lan was chatting with Murong Qiutang, he could notice Luo Guyun looking at him from time to time.
He has not yet deliberately tried to get to know this son of luck, but occasionally in conversations with Murong Qiutang, he would ask a few questions seemingly intentionally or unintentionally.
Murong Qiutang actually had love and compassion for her stepson, and every time Jiang Lan asked her something, she would answer truthfully.
I also have a good understanding of his life and experiences over the past years.
In the original plot, this character almost does not exist, so Jiang Lan is actually not very clear about Luo Guyun's true origins.
In his current understanding.
Luo Guyun has a seriously ill father. More than ten years ago, he took him wandering around and came to the ancient star Mantuo. Then he was chosen by Murong Qiutang as a son-in-law to silence the mouths of his clansmen.
Three years after marrying into the Murong family, Luo Guyun's father died of illness, leaving Luo Guyun alone in the world.
Although he seemed to be idle, not doing his job, and frequenting places of entertainment, his cultivation had actually reached the seventh level. He was truly a child of destiny, and was in no way inferior to the heirs of the top sects.
All these things highlight his extraordinaryness.
During the days that Jiang Lan and Murong Qiutang had been in contact, he could always feel Luo Guyun's emotions fluctuating violently, and there was some jealousy towards him.
Even when Jiang Lan deliberately tested her, and after noticing Luo Guyun's presence, he deliberately put his arm around Murong Qiutang's slender waist and made some intimate gestures, this guy's mood fluctuated violently...
After these tests, Jiang Lan came to a guess that this guy might have some desire to possess his stepmother, but he did not show it very obviously.
After Jiang Lan deliberately messed with this guy's mentality and brought Murong Qiutang to a place where he could see her, he was always able to grab a lot of luck.
Now Jiang Lan's interest in Luo Guyun is even greater than Lu Wu's soul and Ying Zhao's remains.
The luck of this guy is as strong as that of Ye Ming who died at his hands before.
He lived in silence for more than ten years, and when he was born, he had reached the seventh level of cultivation.
This is much more stable than Ye Ming, a son of fortune who wandered around adventuring and relied on many adventures to develop to this point.
At present, Jiang Lan is not sure what kind of golden finger Luo Guyun has. Without relying on family resources, relying on his own talent and hard work, he has achieved the seventh realm? It can't be the deep blue plus points, right? Jiang Lan smiled in his heart and collected his thoughts. These days, the four-sided star field is more lively than he imagined.
Not only did the Son of Fortune appear here, but a few clowns from the Yingzhao Dojo also started jumping around.
"It seems that Brother Luo does have a lot of prejudice against me. I wanted to find an opportunity to have a good chat with him, but he has been staying at home these past few days, which makes it difficult for me."
Jiang Lan sighed softly, leaned his elbows on the railing of the deck, and looked out at the starry sky.
"I wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Gu Yun about this, but I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to accept it right away. He has been avoiding me intentionally or unintentionally these past few days..."
Speaking of this, Murong Qiutang felt a little helpless and shook her head slightly.
She originally wanted to keep it a secret from Luo Guyun for a while, but when she was in Gou Chen Palace, Jiang Lan always asked her to see him.
Murong Qiutang couldn't refuse this.
Although it was just a simple meeting, strolling around the Gou Chen Palace, chatting and so on, but after a while, everyone would be able to see the clues...
Even though Jiang Lan would not force her as forcefully as he did that night, he would occasionally make some intimate gestures such as hugging her waist and holding her hand.
Luo Guyun is not stupid. Murong Qiutang felt that when she and Jiang Lan were chatting and admiring flowers in the pavilion that day, Luo Guyun's figure suddenly appeared not far away. It should not be an accident. He must have noticed something and then followed out.
It just so happened that at that time Jiang Lan talked about some interesting stories in the land of Kyushu, which really made her very happy, so she leaned in his arms and pretended to play around...
This scene happened to be witnessed by Luo Guyun.
Now she didn't have to explain anything, he would probably understand.
As expected, after returning to the courtyard, she saw that Luo Guyun's courtyard door was closed. After she called out a few times, Luo Guyun did not respond at all.
"I don't think we need to be too shy about this kind of thing. After all, Brother Luo is just your stepson. In the cultivation world, sometimes, let alone stepsons, even biological children are fine. It's not uncommon for mothers to remarry. How can he stop you from running towards someone better?"
Jiang Lan smiled, turned his head to look at Murong Qiutang, and reached out to help her tuck a few strands of black hair behind her ears.
Murong Qiutang pursed her lips slightly, her face slightly hot. Although she and Jiang Lan were the only two people on the deck, she always felt worried about being seen.
"You call me Brother Gu Yunluo all the time, and you want to take me as your concubine. Isn't this messing up the order of the generations..." She looked at the handsome face in front of her and couldn't help but glared at Jiang Lan.
If it was at the beginning, she would not dare to speak to Jiang Lan in this tone. Fortunately, they have become much more familiar with each other in the past few days, and her tone has become much more casual and natural.
Moreover, in her opinion, the relationship between the two was heating up rapidly.
Sometimes, some of Jiang Lan's words and actions even made her heart beat hot and her heart beat fast. After returning to the courtyard, she couldn't help but think about it carefully, with a smile on her face.
If others said such words and behaved like this, she would find it frivolous and disgusting, but Jiang Lan was different.
Murong Qiutang thought she was very sober, but she was often frightened and tempted by Jiang Lan's words and temptations.
I know he's not a good person, and I even know he does this to many women, but I just like this feeling...
Right now, the Kaiming Star Domain is in chaos, the Mantuo Ancient Star is also in danger, and many members of the family are like ants on hot pot.
Logically, she should rush back to take charge of the situation, but Jiang Lan was by her side, making her feel that she didn't have to worry about anything.
Even if Yingzhao Dojo attacks us at this time, there is no need to worry.
This kind of peace of mind has never been experienced before.
"If I am of the same generation as Brother Luo, then wouldn't I have to call you aunt? Does Qiutang like this title? If so, I will call you that from now on." Jiang Lan seemed to be unable to hold back his laughter, his eyes teasing.
"no……"
“That’s not a good name.”
Murong Qiutang's face became hotter and hotter, and she felt a little embarrassed.
"Then I'll call you Tang'er?"
Jiang Lan's hand fell from her face, and he embraced her slender waist, letting her lean on his arms. The faint fragrance kept flowing into his nostrils.
“…”
Murong Qiutang's eyes were sparkling and moist, and her eyelashes trembled slightly. No one had ever called her like this before.
This title made me feel like I had suddenly transformed from the strong Queen Mantuo into a gentle and well-behaved little woman.
Feeling the strands of good fortune coming from nowhere, Jiang Lan casually glanced towards the room behind him, and his smile grew even more intense.
Murong Qiutang's heart was in turmoil, and Luo Guyun's heart was also in turmoil at this moment.
"No way?" Jiang Lan lowered his head, staring at the charming face in front of him, and pretended to cover her.
"As long as you like..."
Murong Qiutang was worried that Luo Guyun would come out and see them, so she quickly stretched out her hand to block Jiang Lan and whispered, "Not here, go back to the room..."
Jiang Lan laughed, raised his head, then put his arm around Murong Qiutang and walked towards the depths of the warship.
Murong Qiutang's ears and cheeks turned red and were incredibly hot.
In the room, Luo Guyun's eyes suddenly opened, covered with strands of bloodshot, looking somewhat hideous.
"Jiang Lan..."
He slammed the wooden table in front of him into pieces with a bang, and his heart was filled with angry emotions. He couldn't help but stand up.
But the next moment, a strange warm current suddenly spread from his heart, which gradually calmed his emotions. At the same time, he felt a stinging pain in his eyes, and something seemed to be surging between his eyebrows.
"This is……"
A faint fluctuation of time and space spread in front of Luo Guyun, and there seemed to be a brilliant golden light spreading. When he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
