Chapter 89 You Are the Consecrator of Tianji Pavilion?
"No!!"
Fang Yun was furious, his eyes almost splitting.
Who the hell was this expert?
He just came to help, and now he lost everything!
After burning his essence blood successfully, he ended up in vain! Faced with the imminent threat of death, the once somewhat arrogant Holy Son now only felt regret and fear. He dared not covet the Saint Dragon Clock anymore...
No, he shouldn't have volunteered to come to the Jing Nation in the first place!
On the high loft rooftop, it was naturally Gu Lan.
He carefully examined the Saint Dragon Clock, feeling excited in his heart. It truly was one of the Twelve Great Heaven Treasures!
Moreover, it was a defensive type, perfect for herself! Gu Lan swiftly stored the Saint Dragon Clock in the system space.
Influenced by Fang Yun's state of mind, the previously somewhat demonic and manic intent on it dissipated as soon as it entered the system space.
There was a Heavenly Execution Dragon Roar, a Primordial Sword, a somewhat conscious ancient Phoenix Egg, and on top of the head, an unknown-grade Merit Golden Robe... It couldn't act out of control! It obediently restrained its aura. Since it couldn't resist, it might as well enjoy being the next Heaven Treasure artifact under Gu Lan's control.
Outside, the beautiful girl with blue hair was puzzled, "The aura of the Saint Dragon Clock disappeared. How is that possible?"
"What does that mean?" Luan Xiaoyao frowned, but at this moment, the Little Dragon Maiden didn't have time to answer her.
She raised her gaze and fell on Gu Lan.
Her expression became even more stunned.
"Is this the aura of the blood of an ancient true dragon? ... Senior, could it be that you are also a member of the Dragon Clan?"
The Dragon Clan possessed divinity, born in humanoid form, without any demonic energy. Besides bloodline power and physical strength, they were no different from humans.
Upon hearing these cold words, Gu Lan didn't bother to respond. After obtaining the treasure, her first priority was to run away and make a fortune quietly.
Gu Lan immediately soared on her flying sword, intending to fly away into the distance. However, this flight caught Luan Xiaoyao's attention.
"The Primordial Sword! Oh! I see, you are that smelly... ahem, Consecrator from Tianji Pavilion, right?" She asked this question, causing the nearby Little Dragon Maiden to freeze.
Her beautiful eyes stared closely at Gu Lan.
This person was indeed the Consecrator of Tianji Pavilion, the powerful individual who killed that dragon.
He might very well know about her aunt's whereabouts.
"I'll be damned, this little girl has sharp eyes!" Gu Lan didn't expect to be recognized so quickly.
He was momentarily stunned, glancing at the twin-tailed girl and the blue-haired Little Dragon Maiden, who seemed to be confirming his identity. Seizing this opportunity, he didn't hesitate and flew directly towards the sky!
The Little Dragon Maiden immediately woke up, "Senior, please wait!"
Luan Xiaoyao quickly caught up, and as she passed by Fang Yun, her Soul Reaper Umbrella harvested his soul.
"Stop! Within a hundred paces, women cannot move!"
Gu Lan, seeing them getting closer, immediately used the same technique again. Both the Little Dragon Maiden and Luan Xiaoyao were fixed in place, as if their feet had taken root.
"Besides being known as the Spear God and Sword God in the outside world, you actually have such attainments in Confucianism and Daoism?"
The Little Dragon Maiden exclaimed in shock.
She immediately recalled what she had seen in the "Biography of Continental Figures" in the East Sea but couldn't figure out who could simultaneously cultivate three paths to the pinnacle of the world.
"Let go, I came here to fight you. You must have seen me during the day. Why didn't you dare to come out and fight?"
Luan Xiaoyao struggled to move her legs, her charming face turning red, but she couldn't budge.
"Stop chasing me. I have a wife. Farewell, ladies!" Gu Lan laughed gently and turned into a stream of light, flying away right in front of them.
"I'm not chasing you; I came to ask some questions."
The Little Dragon Maiden replied seriously, seemingly joking. There was some anxiety in her expression.
"Damn it, who the hell is chasing you? Let me go and fight. Let's go to the Baihua Arena!" Luan Xiaoyao raged helplessly.
Even though she now realized the gap between her and Gu Lan, she still had to maintain a tough stance.
...
Fifteen minutes later, Gu Lan returned home and snapped his fingers lightly. T
he restrictions on the two women dissipated, and they landed. Their expressions showed a mix of joy and sorrow.
"This bastard made this miss hang in the sky for so long. Ah! I've never been insulted like this since I was a child!" Luan Xiaoyao clenched her pink fist, tears streaming down her eyes in urgency.
The Little Dragon Maiden's face, on the other hand, carried some desolation. "Finally, we had a clue, and now it's broken... Alas, when can I find my aunt's whereabouts..."
"Don't be disheartened. It seems that the person clearly didn't want to tell you, right?"
Luan Xiaoyao looked at her, feeling that this person... no, this dragon, had become silly after soaking in the water for too long. How come she couldn't even detect jokes and hidden meanings in others' words?
"Huh?" The Little Dragon Maiden was puzzled.
"That person obviously knows something... Otherwise, look at his expression! When you said you wanted to ask something, he didn't show any confusion about what it was. Obviously, he knew in advance that you would ask!" Luan Xiaoyao shook her head, revealing the truth, "He just doesn't want to tell you!"
The Little Dragon Maiden became more confused, her delicate eyebrows slightly frowned. "Refusing to tell me, is it because he thinks I'm not sincere enough?"
Luan Xiaoyao shrugged. "Maybe! It's just a chance encounter. You didn't give any temptation properly. It's normal if he doesn't tell you."
"How can I find him again? I'm willing to express my sincerity to him, the sincerity of our Dragon Clan!" The Little Dragon Maiden's sapphire-like eyes looked very naive, in stark contrast to her cold and arrogant appearance during the fight.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Luan Xiaoyao rolled her eyes and smiled, "Seeing that you have a connection with me, let's stay in the same inn in the capital. If we're lucky, that guy might still be in the capital. There will be more chances to meet in the future."
"Okay."
"Let's go! Your food and accommodation are covered by this miss. I'll treat you to the most luxurious inn in the Jing Nation, Chunyue Tower... Oh, by the way, what's your name?"
"Ao Hanyi."
...
The next day, approaching noon, Gu Lan went to the Jixia Academy to have a free meal.
"Young friend, thanks for the reminder. It turns out that the Marquisate was indeed attacked last night. Thanks to you for discovering those assassins; otherwise, Great Chancellor Sima might be in danger!"
Zhang Qingwei had a serious expression, bowing in respect. This bow was not light at all! After all, in the entire court, apart from the female Emperor, there were very few people worthy of Zhang Qingwei's bow.
Gu Lan quickly supported him and smiled gently, "Master Zhang is too kind. Anyone from the Jing Nation would do the same."
"In any case, with a kind word from you, you saved the pillar of the Great Jing, making an immeasurable contribution to the people of the world."
Zhang Qingwei smiled and continued, "The Grand Chancellor also came to me this morning, saying he wanted to know the location of your Gu Residence to visit and express his thanks."
"How can that be..."
"No problem!" Zhang Qingwei squinted his eyes and chuckled, "Since the young friend is a scholar in the court and will continue on the official path, having Great Chancellor Sima, a first-rank official, as a support would be a good choice!"
I don't need any support, anyway, I won't become an official... Gu Lan silently commented, then suddenly furrowed his brows!
Wait a minute!
A first-rank official?
"Master Zhang, I have a question for you."
"Do you know anyone in the court who can manipulate the results of the imperial examinations, and no one will find out afterward?"
