My Girlfriend From Turquoise Pond Requests My Help After My Millennium Seclusion

Chapter 220: Staying Overnight At The Ninth Summit

After returning to the Ninth Summit, Jiang Lan watered the vegetative egg with spirit liquid.

The Udumbara Flower looked alright.

It was just that the vegetative egg didn’t look too comfortable.

The white eggshell started to turn black. It was probably due to food poisoning.

However, its life force was still relatively stable.

Jiang Lan didn’t pay much attention to the antidote.

Over the years, the vegetative egg had fallen sick before too. It was not rare for its eggshell to turn black.

As a plant, the vegetative egg had more instances of becoming sick when compared to the Udumbara Flower.

But it was less troublesome than the Udumbara Flower.

The antidote was especially effective.

Every time the Udumbara Flower showed signs of withering, it would require a lot of time to recover.

Even after it recovered, it would still remain dispirited and lifeless.

It was the same no matter how he looked after them. Logically speaking, they should be nourishing and growing with such abundance of spiritual energy.

Unfortunately, they had always been on the brink of death.

He had no idea how long they could last.

Jiang Lan felt that as long as he didn’t encounter a disaster, he would be able to send the vegetative egg off.

Jiang Lan then sat to the side and calmed his heart.

The moment he sat down, Xiao Yu sat opposite him.

“Junior Brother, do you think I’ll have a heart demon if I stay in the Ninth Summit overnight?”

Xiao Yu and Jiang Lan returned to the Ninth Summit but Xiao Yu did not return to the Jade Pool.

Would she?

In theory, no.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Lan thought of something and said:

“Senior Sister, wait for me for a while.”

Xiao Yu was a little confused when she saw Jiang Lan getting up.

However, she wasn’t in a hurry. She just nodded and watched to see what her Junior Brother wanted to do.

A moment later.

She saw Jiang Lan crafting some unfamiliar runes around the courtyard. He was doing something related to array formations.

However, she had no idea what kind of formation it was.

Jiang Lan spent some time constructing a temporary framework.

The project was rather large. Fortunately, it was simplified by him. Otherwise, he would not have been able to construct it in three days.

That afternoon.

Some of the arrangements were successfully completed.

Jiang Lan stood up and looked at Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu was also staring at him with her big eyes.

It was as if her gaze had never left him.

“Senior Sister has been watching constantly?” Jiang Lan asked curiously.

“Watching Junior Brother do things seems to make time pass faster,” Xiao Yu said softly.

Jiang Lan was stunned. Was that so?

He did not ask further and sat opposite Xiao Yu.

“Senior Sister, close your eyes.”

Seeing Xiao Yu’s eyes suddenly widen, Jiang Lan was a bit surprised. His Senior Sister might have thought too much. He then added.

“Calm down and feel the courtyard.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yu finally understood. She lowered her head shyly and closed her eyes.

Within moments, she saw the courtyard.

It was just that the courtyard was more spacious, a bit different from the real courtyard.

It was a spiritual courtyard.

“Has Senior Sister seen it?” Jiang Lan’s voice rang out from the sky above the courtyard.

Xiao Yu knew that Jiang Lan was talking to her.

Then, she came to her senses and found it unbelievable.

“Is this the same as the spiritual inn?”

“Yes.” Jiang Lan nodded slightly.

“It was constructed in recent years, but it’s still a bit lacking, so it’s still rather basic.”

Xiao Yu pointed at herself with her slender fingers and said.

“Is it for me?”

She had once asked about the spiritual inn, but Jiang Lan replied that he didn’t know about it either then.

After so many years, his Junior Brother should have figured it out.

After that, she thought of the Catoptric Deflection.

That book was only obtained from the innkeeper after she mentioned about the spiritual inn.

Xiao Yu did not know if she was overthinking.

But she just wanted to ask.

She looked at Jiang Lan, as if waiting for an answer.

The answer didn’t disappoint her.

Jiang Lan nodded slightly.

Xiao Yu smiled. She wanted to smile.

She often smiled at her Junior Brother.

“Senior Sister, you can use the spiritual courtyard to check if you have any inner demons,” Jiang Lan said.

He had initially planned to let Xiao Yu play in it.

Now, it could be used to detect inner demons.

“Then does Junior Brother want to rest tonight or continue cultivating? If you want to train, I won’t disturb you any further, Junior Brother. I’ll take a look at the spiritual courtyard.” Xiao Yu seemed to want to go play with the spiritual courtyard right now.

It was a completely different mentality from when she was in the spiritual inn.

This courtyard was made for her.

Shaking his head, Jiang Lan began to calm down. He had to face the challenge tomorrow, so he naturally needed to be in his best condition.

Xiao Yu was probably here because she was concerned about the match tomorrow too.

…

…

Ao Man followed behind Ao Ye.

They were heading out of Kunlun.

“Are you really not going to drink? I ordered some good wine and some dishes,” said Ao Ye as he looked at Ao Man.

He knew how to share good things.

Hearing this, Ao Man rolled his eyes at Ao Ye.

He finally understood. Every time Ao Ye drank, he would cause trouble and always fight with others.

This was a person without alcohol tolerance.

Drinking with him was embarrassing.

If he wasn’t careful, he might lose his life.

He was not strong enough and could not afford to drink this wine. Furthermore, he had to fight with his future brother-in-law tomorrow, so he could not drink wine and cause trouble.

Although the Ninth Summit’s Summit Leader had held back on account of his future brother-in-law, this challenge was extremely important.

He would hold back, but he would never lose.

After all, this concerned the dignity of the entire Dragon Race. He could not be willful.

As an innate immortal from the Dragon Race, he could not afford to lose his dignity.

Losing to a late-stage Essence Soul human would be an irreparable humiliation.

Other dragons might not care, but he was different. He was the Eighth Prince of the Dragon Race.

He was an innate immortal and also the future hope of the Dragon Race.

How could he lose?

And how could he lose?

After bidding farewell to Ao Ye, Ao Man knew that he would not be able to see Uncle Ao Ye for the next few days.

He hoped that he would be alright.

He arrived at the forest beneath the Ninth Summit.

Instead of going up, he stood below, waiting for the sky to darken before the sun rose again.

At that time, he would go to the Ninth Summit and challenge his future brother-in-law.

He also wanted to experience the legendary Dragon Slaying Sword.

This was the only thing his future brother-in-law could rely on.

“Tomorrow, I will not bully or humiliate him. I will defeat him fair and square.”

This was what Ao Man had decided on.

This way, he would be able to answer to his elders and also not offend Kunlun.

He could also answer to his sister.

As for the aftermath, it was not something that they, the people of the younger generation, could participate in.

A perfected Human Immortal against a late-stage Essence Soul was simply bullying, but there was nothing they could do.

It was because Jiang Lan was too weak, yet he had entered their line of sight.

…

It was morning.

Dew gathered on the leaves.

Jiang Lan opened his eyes.

Xiao Yu also retreated from the spiritual courtyard.

“Junior Brother, are you ready?” Xiao Yu asked.

Last night, she had given the records of the previous seven battles to Jiang Lan.

That way, Jiang Lan would be prepared.

“Yes, I am going to clean the square now while I wait for the Eighth Prince to arrive.” Jiang Lan stood up and spoke softly.

“I’ll help you clean it.” Xiao Yu stood up as well.

Then, they headed towards the Ninth Summit’s square one after another.

Jiang Lan had built the Ninth Summit’s square and added many array formations.

In this battle between late-stage Essence Souls, it wouldn’t suffer any damage.

Before dawn, Xiao Yu and Jiang Lan were cleaning the fallen leaves with a broom.

Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan who was cleaning neither too fast nor too slow, as if it was just a normal day and he was just doing his daily chore.

She didn’t say anything else and just stayed by Jiang Lan’s side to clean up.

“Senior Sister, I’ve swept over there. Don’t sweep the leaves over there.”

“Ah? Oh!”
