C285 He Whetted His Blade Towards the Xuan Family
The negotiation had ended in failure. It was useless for Jian Ao and the others to stay in First Prince Prefecture. The three of them returned to First Prince Prefecture.
------
Inside the mansion.
Lang Tian sat on the high chair with an angry face. He coldly snorted and slammed his palm on the table made of Reputation Wood. Immediately, the table exploded with a 'bang' and countless wood shavings fell to the ground.
"My Fifth Younger Brother? Lang Xie, I have underestimated you!" Lang Tian said angrily.
" Plop! "
Lang Qi frowned and knelt down in fear. He shouted, "Mistress, I know I was wrong. I caused Mistress to lose a spirit mine and Lang Tian's order. I deserve to die ten thousand times for my crimes! Master, please punish me! "
"Punish?" Lang Tian smiled coldly and said, "The matter has already happened. What's done is done. What's the use of saying all this now? Get up! "
Lang Qi looked at Lang Tian in disbelief, not understanding what his mistress meant. He'd caused him to lose a spirit mine, and even the Lang Tian Token that the current king had bestowed upon him had been seized by them. Lang Tian actually didn't punish him, and it seemed as if he'd let him go instead?
"What? You didn't listen to my orders!" Lang Tian frowned and said in a deep voice.
"No, no, no!" Lang Qi kept shouting, "This life of mine was saved by Mistress. Even if Mistress wanted me to climb the mountain of blades and plunge into the sea of fire, I would not frown. My life has always been Mistress. Whatever Mistress says, I will do. Even if I die, I will be willing!"
"Then why don't you get up!" Lang Tian shouted.
"Yes, yes, Mistress, please calm your anger. Mistress, calm your anger!" Lang Qi tremblingly stood up.
"Mistress. . . " Lang Qi, who stood up, wanted to say something but stopped himself. He wanted to say something but was unable to say it.
Lang Tian looked at Lang Qi and said faintly, "You want to know why I didn't leave Jian Ao and Lang Xie behind, right?"
"Uh!" Lang Qi broke out in cold sweat. These were the kings who were born in the families of mutual deception. Sure enough, none of them were ordinary people.
"That's right. Just like what my master said, I believe that with the power of my palace, I can make all three of them stay. Why should I let them go?"
"Let them go?" Lang Tian smiled coldly and glared at Lang Qi. Immediately, the latter felt as though he was sitting on a needle. Cold sweat dripped down and even his back was wet.
Lang Tian withdrew his gaze. His voice was calm, but it contained a supreme fury as he said, "I have really underestimated this Fifth Younger Brother of mine. I thought that everything was under my control, but I never expected that. . . Everything is my wishful thinking. The truth is completely different from what I thought.
Perhaps it was a long time ago, Lang Xie had already recruited experts to serve him! I have really underestimated him! I underestimated him!"
" Pa! " It seemed as if the more he spoke, the angrier he got. Even his favorite Fei Yu Dragon carved cup was smashed to the ground.
Expert?
Lang Qi swallowed his saliva! His eyes revealed a look of longing. Under the heavens, martial arts was respected, and twelve realms were divided into twelve realms. Only those who had reached the Sword King were qualified to be called powerhouses. Even those who had reached the Sword Lord were only called pseudo-powerhouses.
He had never thought that Lang Xie would be protected by a king level expert. He had never thought that this would happen! Perhaps even his master hadn't thought of this! Otherwise, he wouldn't be so angry.
Lang Qi finally knew why his master would let them go back. So this was the reason!
And to know that the other party had the protection of a king. . . Then his master also had a king behind him!
Both First Prince had a king behind him. That was at least two! Lang Qi suddenly swallowed his saliva. It seemed like the water in this imperial family was even deeper than the legends!

"Where do you want to go?"
When they returned to the inn, Jian Ao saw Xuan Yue pulling Ning Ming out again.
"Mr. Jian!" Xuan Yue's face turned bitter when she saw Jian Ao. She said, "I wanted to buy clothes before. She unexpectedly met that big bad guy, Liu Yang, halfway through. His plan had been messed up by him. I didn't manage to buy clothes. He was free today, so he wanted to go out. Buy one more time!" Xuan Yue stuck out her tongue like a spoiled child, trying to please him.
" Buy clothes? " Jian Ao smiled. It was good to go out with Xuan Yue not once. It was his first time coming to Wind Mist City and the first time he went out. He met Lang Xie, the Fifth Prince of Feng Lan, and was then pulled into the water by him.
The second time he went out, he even met Liu Yang, an elite inner circle disciple of the Wind Mist Sect. After a fierce battle with him, Liu Yang killed him with great difficulty. If he let them go out this time, it was inevitable that they would encounter some kind of danger again.
It wasn't that Jian Ao didn't want them to go out, but he was worried that they would be bullied by others if they went out. He was doing this for their own good!
"No!" Jian Ao shook his head.
"Why not?" Xuan Yue ran over and hugged Jian Ao's arm, acting spoiled. "Mr. Jian, just agree! It was not easy for him to come to Wind Mist City once, and he wanted to see the world. You should make an exception and let us out. Otherwise, if we stay in this inn, we will suffocate and become stupid! "
Xuan Yue's eyes flickered as she looked at Jian Ao. There was an indescribable feeling. The color was within. He had confessed to everyone on the streets of the north of the city, but he acted as if he hadn't heard anything and even pretended not to know.
He had confessed in front of everyone! I am a little girl from a small family! How much courage does one need to be able to do this!? You have to at least express it!
Jian Ao touched Xuan Yue's gaze and immediately looked back as if he did not dare to look. He sighed in his heart and insisted, "No! No matter what! There are only three days until September 15th. In these three days, you must stay in this inn and cultivate well. You must not go anywhere!"
The 15th of September was the opening day of the Xuan family, one of the two families of Feng Lan. He had to bring her to the Xuan family to see the Profound Water Cave, which was known as the number one sword cave in Feng Lan.
This was only when Jian Ao asked Lang Xie, who told him about it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that the Xuan family's Profound Water Cave would be chosen to open on the 15th of September.
"The 15th of the ninth month, all of you have to stay in this inn!" Xuan Yue said with a depressed face.
"Mr. Jian said he won't let you out. Sister Yue, don't go out! In any case, it was only three days away from the 15th of September! It's gone in a flash! " Ning Ming helped him by the side.
" I see! " Xuan Yue still had an unhappy look and nodded her head. She reluctantly agreed, "Alright then. After September 15th, you must let me go out to play!"
"Don't worry!" Jian Ao nodded and said, "I will take you out to play without September 15th!"
"Thank you, Mr. Jian!" Xuan Yue smiled when she heard Jian Ao's promise.
"In order to prevent you from sneaking out, you can stay with me for the next three days!" Jian Ao looked at Xuan Yue and said helplessly.
Regarding Xuan Yue, Jian Ao himself did not know what kind of feelings he had for her. Was it the love between a man and a woman, or the relationship between a brother and a sister! Facing the matter of love, even as a peak existence in a world, Jian Ao was helpless. He could only listen to the heaven's mandate and do his best!
After saying that, he flashed into the room and consolidated his breakthrough to the Second Level of Sword Master Stage.
Although he had the enormous memories of the Blood Slaughter Sword Sect, cultivation was his own business. If he had to take it step by step, the memories of the Blood Slaughter Sword Sect would only serve as a catalyst. He had to rely on himself. He was the one who had the ultimate victory.
"Mr. Jian asked me to live with him!" Xuan Yue's heart was beating like a deer. Was it uneasiness? Or joy!
------
In Jian Ao's room.
"Concentrate your energy into your dantian and cultivate with utmost care!" Jian Ao frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.
On one side of the room, which was opposite of Jian Ao, there was a bed. Xuan Yue was sitting on the bed.
At this moment, she had given up all her cultivation. She supported her chin with her hand and stared at Jian Ao without blinking. The more she looked at Jian Ao, the brighter her eyes became.
"Oh!" Xuan Yue nodded her head in confusion and replied. However - - her movements were still the same, as if she had seen gold, shining.
Jian Ao cultivated for a while and raised his eyebrows again because he realized that even he himself could not focus on his cultivation when Xuan Yue kept staring at him.
"Yue. " Jian Ao exhaled a breath of turbid air and opened his eyes. He stared at Xuan Yue and said word by word, "Do you know what day the 15th of September is?"
"The night of the full moon!" Xuan Yue replied without thinking, "Night of full moon? Mr. Jian, don't tell me you want to ask Yue out to go shopping and watch the lanterns!"
Jian Ao was speechless. What was this all about? When did he say he wanted to go shopping with her? He wanted to see the lanterns! But thinking about her personality, it made sense.
Jian Ao replied speechlessly, "The 15th of September is not only the night of the full moon, but also the opening day of the Profound Water Cave of the Wind Mist Xuan family!"
Profound Water Cave of the Xuan family!
Xuan Yue raised her eyebrows when she heard that. The reason why she ran away from home was to go to the Profound Water Cave of her family and obtain the inheritance there.
As for him - - her Mr. Jian also came because of this. Didn't that mean he knew her identity?
Sure enough, just as Xuan Yue had expected, a letter suddenly appeared in Jian Ao's hand and said: "This is the letter that the Profound Bright City Lord asked me to pass to you. Take a good look at it!"
Xuan Yue frowned and took the letter and opened it to take a look.
---
Yue, this is the husband that your father chose for you. He will enter the Xuan family's Profound Water Cave with you. Regardless of whether you agree or not, this matter is decided by your father. As for whether you can keep an eye on him and keep him here, it all depends on your own ability.
---
There wasn't much to the content, but he had already explained everything that needed to be said.
Xuan Yue took a deep breath and looked at Jian Ao with a complicated expression.
No wonder he would protect her no matter how spoiled and stubborn she was. It turned out to be like this!
The person he had been painstakingly searching for was actually his' husband '. Wouldn't all of his previous efforts be in vain?
"You have read the letter. I believe that the Profound Bright City Lord has already told me everything. I hope that Sister Yue can help me. You should take care of yourself. You should be able to calm down and cultivate. You should be ready to enter the Xuan family at your peak state!" Jian Ao said in a deep voice.
Xuan Yue took a deep breath. With one breath, all the complicated feelings in her eyes were swept away. She looked at Jian Ao indifferently. Since he was already her "husband," then should she hold him tightly? Wasn't that so?
"Mr. Jian, don't worry. Yue will definitely cultivate well. In these three days, She won't have any other thoughts. We have to be at our peak state, ready to enter the Xuan family and enter the Profound Water Cave! " Xuan Yue said in a deep voice.
"That's great!" Jian Ao nodded. If he had known that a letter could solve this problem, why would he have said so much nonsense? Wouldn't that be a waste of words? Sigh, if he had taken out that letter earlier, wouldn't that have been enough?
In these three days, Jian Ao and Xuan Yue stayed in the room. They had been carefully cultivating and adjusting themselves to their peak condition. They were ready and ready for battle, in order to stand out in the Xuan family and Profound Water Cave.
Time passed quickly just like that.
The first day passed. Xuan Yue was happy that she calmed down and started to practice. She had actually broken through to the early stage of the sword master realm and entered the intermediate stage of the sword master realm, which was the Fourth Level of Sword Master Stage.
