Following the constant attacks from Wei Ze, Xiao Lan gradually figured out his moves. When he was about to attack her again, Xiao Lan quickly dodged to the side, and after finding a perfect gap, she stomped her feet out abruptly and ruthlessly kicked towards his chest.

When Wei Ze noticed Xiao Lan's actions, it was already too late for him to dodge. He instantly opened his eyes wide and forcefully took the kick.

When he took a deep breath, he felt waves of pain coming from his chest.

In a split-second, his eyes widened in shock. How could this be?!

As the pain became more obvious, he had no choice but to stop.

The onlookers were all dumbfounded on the spot, their eyes wide as if they had lost their souls.

This!

The Third Miss had actually defeated the Marquis!

How could this be possible!?

At this moment, Xiao Lan couldn't help but take deep breaths. She had used all of the power of the Heaven and Earth Rask just now, and when she completely exploded, she could feel her meridians overturning and bursting.

Fortunately, she hit him at the last moment and retracted her Qi. Otherwise, if she continued for another second, her muscles and veins would have broken again.

She didn't know what was going on, but she had promised that she would ask him about it the next time she came.

At this moment, the entire courtyard had quietened down. There were only countless leaves that were continuously falling down from the trees due to the inner strength of Xiao Lan and Wei Ze.

Under the bush, Yuze had been staring at Xiao Lan in disbelief.

Was she his daughter?

How could she be so powerful?

When did she learn kung fu and inner strength? Where did you learn it?

Suddenly, he felt pain in his chest. A fishy and sweet feeling entered his mouth. He reached out and touched his chest. The wound was not light!

At this moment, the concerned voice of a man sounded from the door, "Father!"

Xiao Lan looked towards the source of the voice, only to see a handsome young man in battle armor running quickly towards him.

The youth ran to the side of Wei Ze and firmly grabbed his arm. "Father, how are you?"

Wei Ze looked at the youth. The shocked and furious expression on his face disappeared in an instant. Instead, it had turned into an incomparable joy.

"An'er, you're back."

An'er?

Xiao Lan's memories gradually revealed the youth's identity. It was Wei An, the adopted son of Wei Ze who had followed by his side since he was young, and was already no different than his own son.

Wei An had been smart and intelligent since he was young, and he was also extremely intelligent. He had fought in the army, prepared food, and killed many enemies. He was extremely brave.

In this battle against the enemies, he could be said to have made several meritorious military exploits.

After that, because of the injury to his leg, he could not stay in the barracks to continue his labours, so he returned to the Imperial Court early. Meanwhile, Yu-An stayed in the battlefield to take care of all the work on the aftermath.

He must have taken care of his work and returned to the capital to report.

"Father, are you alright?"

Seeing that Wan-Er was worried, he took a deep breath and gently pushed away her arm, saying with a face full of smiles, "It's fine, what can I do for you, father? I was just joking with your third sister."

As he spoke of Third Sister, An An couldn't help but quickly turn his gaze towards Xiao Lan. He didn't expect that after leaving Xiao Lan for just two years, his submissive Third Sister would become so powerful that she could even defeat his father.

"When did Third Sister become so powerful?"

The youth's smile was like the warm winter sun. It was dazzling, warm, and positive.

When Xiao Lan saw Cangan's face clearly, he stood dumbstruck on the spot as if he'd been struck by lightning.

"Brother!"

Xiao Lan's shout was heartbreaking.

The smiling Jing'an couldn't help but be taken aback for a second. He didn't expect his third sister to have such a drastic change in the two years he had been gone. The person he had never been close with was actually so sincere this time.

"Third sister."

Third sister?

No, the young man in front of her was not him, nor was it her big brother Xiao An. Her big brother was calling her Lan Er in the same intimate manner as her parents, not Third Sister.

He wasn't him, he just looked like him.

But how could there be such a like-looking person in the world, with the same facial features, facial features, and even the same smile at the corners of his mouth?

Brother, is this the you from a thousand years ago?

Xiao Lan walked towards Yu-An step by step and stood in front of her.

After a long while, Xiao Lan revealed a warm smile, just like how she stood in front of Xiao An a thousand years later. After that, she spoke with a very gentle voice.

"Bro, you're back."

The feeling was extremely strong, especially when the corner of Xiao Lan's mouth could melt all of the smiles on his face, causing his entire body to tremble.

After a short moment, the smile on Wei An's face became even brighter. "Yes, I am back."

The scene of the brotherly love should have made people envious and blessed, but the people in the courtyard were not only feeling weird, they were also feeling weird.

Brotherly love was deep, where did brotherly love come from?

In the past, she had never spoken more than ten sentences with Vivian. How could such a brother and sister have any feelings for each other? Furthermore, they were not siblings.

The scene in front of him had really become a ghost.

Even Wei Ze, who was standing behind Wei An, was dumbstruck. His eyebrows were twitching as he looked at Xiao Lan and Wei An.

Unbelievable, truly unimaginable! What was this "Wanglan Yi" all about!?

At that moment, Gao Yuan's unique voice came from outside the Warm Fragrance Pavilion. "Hey, I say I've been waiting in the lobby for a long time. Why aren't you guys going to receive your rewards?"

Everyone looked up into the sky.

He had wanted to walk quickly, but now he could no longer do so.

"Eunuch Gao, why did the emperor bestow such a gift?"

Gao Yuan smiled as he looked in the direction of Cangan and Xiao Lan.

He instantly understood. So that was how it was. It must have been for the sake of his son.

"An'er, come with me to the front hall to receive your reward."

"Yes, Father."

As soon as the two of them started walking, they saw Gao Yuan rejecting them. "Wrong, wrong. This reward is for your daughter, Ulan Yi."

"What?" Wei Ze's eyes immediately widened in surprise.

Wei Ze looked towards Xiao Lan extremely quickly. Whatever she did, she would receive the Emperor's reward!

Xiao Lan was also somewhat confused and couldn't help but look towards Gao Yuan. "Eunuch Gao, could it be that you've made a mistake?"

Gao Yuan firmly shook his head. "How could I make a mistake? It's just for you, the future regent's consort. The emperor is very happy to know you've awoken. Didn't he send you the best novelty and tonic in the palace? He said it's to properly mend your body so that you'd definitely marry a spirit god on your wedding day."

Eh...

At this moment, Xiao Lan didn't know what to say. She could only say that whether it was the Emperor or the Regent, there was something wrong with this Xuanyuan surnamed person's head.

Xiao Lan, who was standing at the same spot, couldn't help but to remind her once again, "Miss Wei, please come in."
