Originally, he judged people by their appearance, and thought that even if such a slender and frail little girl really knew ancient martial arts, she probably grew up in the ancient martial arts world since childhood, was blessed by her parents, and only learned some basic skills.
But ever since his elder brother came on the court, his face has been in a state of being beaten and making loud slapping sounds.
Until now, when he actually stood in front of the girl, he had lost his initial calmness and composure. Just a glance at her made him break out in a layer of sweat on his back.
"Hmm?" Seeing that he hadn't moved, Ye Lan rarely lifted her eyelids to look at him, "You can start now."
It was getting late, and she was still looking forward to eating Hunan cuisine.
When Xie Chenan was urged, the resistance in his heart also rose up.
He clenched his fists, rushed forward, and kicked out in a feint to the east and west.
Since you can't defeat him, just complete the assessment task.
Unfortunately... bang.
The chair didn't move.
He changed direction and continued his attack, but still failed.
Realizing that the girl might have used her internal energy to control the chair, he had to face Ye Lan again and launch his attack.
One minute later.
As expected, he lay down, his whole body in so much pain that he couldn't get up and he had no strength at all.
On the other hand, Ye Lan, who had fought against a whole yard, sat on the chair without moving at all. He even drank two cups of tea without spilling a drop of water.
Faced with such a huge gap in strength, the Xie family was convinced and could not bring themselves to ask for places for their own family members. They were even more disheartened about Xuanzong's decision to open the mountain gate and recruit disciples.
At this time, Ye Lan stood up, walked in front of Xie Changhua, lowered his eyes and said calmly: "In three days, I will give you something, and you will report to Xuanzong."
ah?
Xie Changhua, who had just finished applying a plaster cast and was sitting against the wall with his arm in a sling to rest, looked up at her blankly, then pointed at himself uncertainly, "Me?"
"Yeah." Ye Lan gave him an affirmative answer, then looked at Xie Fu, "Uncle Xie, can we have dinner now? I'm hungry."
Xie Fu came back to his senses and nodded immediately, "Okay, okay, the kitchen has already prepared it. Let's go to the yard and eat under the pear tree. It's cool over there."
"Okay." Ye Lan took a step and was about to go out.
At this moment, Xie Laosi suddenly rushed out and stopped her.
"Ms. Ye, what exactly are your criteria? No one moved your chair, so why did you choose Changhua?"
There was a strong sense of reluctance in his tone, and it was obvious that he was seeking justice for his son.
Ye Lan also guessed what he meant from the similarities between his eyebrows and the boy's, so he said, "Because he is the only one who waited from morning to noon, and still remained rational and cautious during the physical and mental training. Ancient martial arts do respect the strong, but the most important thing for a strong person is not talent, but character."
If she had to choose between the two, she would definitely choose the latter.
Hearing this, Xie Chenan, who was lying not far away, felt his face burning. Although the girl did not call him by name, he felt that every word was referring to him.
He has always been arrogant, refused to participate in training, and looked down on others because of his talent.
And today's meal really woke him up.
"But, Miss Ye..."
Xie Laosi wanted to say something more but was stopped by Xie Chenan who was lying on the ground.
"Dad! I haven't completed the assessment myself, so there's nothing to say." He struggled to stand up, staring at the girl's beautiful silhouette, his eyes firm as he said, "One day I will rely on my own abilities to enter the ancient martial arts world."
Ye Lan in front kept walking, as if he was not listening, he was just busy eating.
However, there was a chirping ghost bride next to her.
"Hey, you've already figured it out, right? That kid is a natural at cultivation. He's bound to become something great in the future. While he won't be as monstrous as you, he should be pretty formidable."
"Are you deliberately provoking him? Aren't you afraid he'll be devastated and unable to recover?"
As far as she knew, the men in this world were much more fragile than women when faced with failure.
Ye Lan was so annoyed by her that he wanted to silence her directly, but he felt it was not worth the effort. He decided to go back and write a silence talisman and stick it on her forehead before going out. He said, "No matter how talented you are, if you have a bad character, you will only be a disaster. If you can't stand up just because of this setback, there is no need to enter the ancient martial arts world to practice."
"The path of cultivation will only become more difficult."
The ghost bride curled her lips, impatient to listen to these big truths, but she also understood that the girl's current strength was not achieved by relying on her natural talent, but must have been the result of difficult training that ordinary people could not imagine.
As they were talking, the group had already entered Xie Fu's yard.
Mr. Xie personally welcomed Ye Lan and sat at the top seat, speaking politely and with a respectful attitude.
The Hunan cuisine tasted good and Ye Lan enjoyed it very much.
After the meal, Xie Changfang brought Xie Changhua over to express his gratitude, and took out a bank black card as a gift to her.
"No need. It's against the rules." Ye Lan pushed the card back and took out a brocade bag from his pocket and handed it to Xie Changhua. "Give this to the people at the mountain gate during the assessment. If anyone asks where it came from, just say that someone gave it to you before."
"Oh, okay." Xie Changhua took the brocade bag in a daze. He was confused and didn't understand what "against the rules" meant. He only knew that the girl in front of him seemed to have some close connection with the most mysterious Xuanzong in the ancient martial arts world, and he, the least talented person in the Xie family, was chosen.
For a moment, he felt mixed emotions and yet also happy.
The meal was a home away from home.
Before leaving the Xie family, Xie Fu secretly asked Ye Lan, "God Ye, are you still interested in being on the show?"
Ye Lan raised his eyes to look at him.
Xie Fu laughed dryly and explained, "Ever since you last participated in the variety show, many people have come to me and asked me to invite you to continue participating in the variety show. Among them are some good friends of mine. I was embarrassed to refuse, so I asked..."
After he finished speaking, Ye Lan gave a direct answer, "Not considering it for now."
"Yeah, okay." Xie Fu nodded hurriedly, as if he would be satisfied with just an answer, without any intention of forcing anything.
Then Ye Lan left in a car.
In fact, on Green Bubble, both Lin Boyu and Zhou Siqi sent messages asking about participating in the show, and she gave the same reply.
Not interested.
Last time, I couldn’t get a bank card because I was a minor and hadn’t left the Ye family. Later, when I met Tang Sinian, I got the card.
Now she has more money than she can spend in her lifetime, and she doesn’t have to waste time participating in the show.
Of course, if there is a special opportunity, it can also be considered.
In the car, she originally wanted to tell the driver to go directly back to the Gold Coast, but the ghost bride next to her rushed over and hugged her and refused to agree.
"No, take me clothes shopping first. I want to go to the same store as last time and buy a beautiful dress!"
'I want skirts, skirts, skirts.'
Ye Lan was annoyed by her noise and could only wave her away with one hand and ask the driver to change the route.
After entering the commercial building, she watched the ghost bride happily flitting around the shops like a butterfly, bringing gusts of cold wind that made the necks of the customers in the shops feel cold.
Ye Lan: “…”
Well, women, whether they are human or ghost, love beauty.
