  After the flowers in the courtyard were all taken care of, Jiang Lan sat in the courtyard and read a book.

  He started to think about the dangers that could appear during the Witchcloud Gathering.

  The changes in the rules would definitely bring about the most problems.

  It didn’t change the previous times when it was held. Yet, it had immediately changed the moment it was Kunlun’s turn to host it.

  Jiang Lan refused to believe that there was no problem.

  Under normal circumstances, his master should be able to protect him if there was danger, right?

  Although his master’s cultivation level was a mystery, he was undoubtedly powerful.

  Even at this moment, he was still unable to see through it.

  Theoretically, he could ask, but as someone who hadn’t achieved immortality yet, asking about the immortal realm was a bit abrupt.

  Moreover, he might not be able to obtain an answer.

  Therefore, he had no intention of asking about his master’s cultivation base till now. After all, he was supposed to have no knowledge of the various realms after immortality since he had yet to undergo his immortal ascension yet.

  However, since he was at the Void Refinement Realm now, there was no harm in trying to ask.

  “I’ll try and see how Master answers.”


  With this thought in mind, Jiang Lan closed the book in his hand and headed towards the peak of the Ninth Summit.

  …


  “What is my cultivation realm?” Mo Zhengdong asked, surprised.

  However, he still answered.

  “I have been an immortal for many years. My strength is still passable in Kunlun. I’ll tell you the details when you become an immortal. ”


  Jiang Lan nodded in agreement.

  It was normal that his master wanted him to become stronger first.

  “Recently, people from various places will come to Kunlun. They might not necessarily enter Kunlun. There’s a high chance that they will wait outside on the mountaintop.

  When you have the time, you can talk to your fellow disciples. This will get you ready for the Witchcloud Gathering,” Mo Zhengdong instructed.

  So it turned out that it was actually useful to occupy a mountain… Jiang Lan nodded slightly in understanding.

  “After entering closed-door training for a long time, you’ll have to go and understand the situation outside and see the scenery outside. Otherwise, you will be trapped and stuck in the world you were in before entering closed-door cultivation.”


  Mo Zhengdong said a few more words before letting Jiang Lan leave.

  Jiang Lan accepted his master’s instructions.

  His master was right.

  Every time he came out of seclusion, the roads would change, let alone humans and objects.

  Returning to the courtyard, Jiang Lan continued reading.

  Knowing his master’s cultivation level had to wait until he advanced to become an immortal. Perhaps, when his cultivation level appeared to be that of a Human Immortal, his master could reveal to him a thing or two.

  As for the insights…


  Reading up on another’s insights would affect one’s cultivation significantly.

  Furthermore, insights were only insights, not cultivation.

  It was only a guess. In that case, he might as well wait for his advancement.

  Unfortunately, his Eyes Of Truth wasn’t easy to use, or else it wouldn’t have been so troublesome.

  But…


  Since he could not see through it now, it meant that his master was 90% likely to be a Dao Immortal.

  He had no idea what that meant.

  After all, it was still too far away.

  “Can I try to find a partner for Master now?” Jiang Lan thought to himself.

  After the Witchcloud Gathering ended, he would ask his master if he had any problems in this aspect.

  Then, he would ask his Martial Aunt of the Fifth Summit.

  In order to ensure that his master did not lead a boring life, he had to put in some effort.

  If his Martial Aunt of the Fifth Summit really becomes his master’s Dao partner…


  That would be pretty dangerous.

  The Martial Aunts and Uncles of the other summits seemed easy to get along with. However, he kept feeling that under the gaze of his Martial Aunt of the Fifth Summit, there was a dangerous glint.

  Xiao Yu was different.

  It could be because Xiao Yu was a little dragon and rarely interacted with outsiders.

  He was naturally the one who came into contact with her the most.

  The wind blew the branches, but the ice cicadas still hid behind the surrounding trees.

  Everything was relatively peaceful.

  Jiang Lan looked at the array formation and decided to change the modules for the surrounding array formations.

  He wanted to increase the grade of the array formations.

  It would not affect his master much. His master could not crack the array formations since many years ago.

  No matter how difficult it becomes in the future, there would be no difference for him.

  …


  The next day.

  Dark clouds covered the sky and lightning seemed to be flashing.

  Jiang Lan looked at the horizon and closed the book that was related to the study of array formations.

  He placed the vegetative egg and Udumbara Flower in a more out-of-the-way place. If it was going to rain, he needed to let it experience a storm.

  Perhaps it was because they were too well protected that they lost interest in life.

  One was unable to break out of its shell, while the other seemed to be withering.

  Perhaps one could only encounter rainbow clouds after experiencing a storm.

  When Jiang Lan took out the both of them, heavy rain began to fall.

  He stepped back and hid under the shelter of his house.

  The rain continued to fall.

  “Xiaoyu(Drizzle) still looks better.”


  Jiang Lan muttered to himself.

  After all, heavy rain was not Ao Longyu.

  Xiao Yu did not agree for him to call her Xiao Yu in her normal state.

  Otherwise, heavy rain would look nice too.

  Then what was Xiao Yu in her dragon form called?

  Storm?

  The name kind of matches.

  Drip, drip, drip!

  The sound of rain falling was heard.

  Jiang Lan leaned against the door and flipped open the book to continue reading. The more he read, the more helpful it would be for him.

  Little by little, he would accumulate his knowledge and become stronger.

  He would get stronger every day.

  No matter how far away the mountain was, there would come a day when he would touch it.

  In the evening.

  Da da da!

  In the heavy rain, Jiang Lan suddenly heard hurried footsteps.

  He looked up.

  It was a young girl running towards the courtyard with her head in her hands.

  Her clothes and hair were drenched by the heavy rain.

  It was naturally Xiao Yu.

  A drenched dragon?

  Da da da!

  Splash!

  Xiao Yu jumped in front of Jiang Lan as she looked at her drenched body.

  “Junior Brother, were you laughing at me when you looked at me just now?”


  “No.” Jiang Lan immediately shook her head.

  Xiao Yu’s clothes were stuck to her body because of the water.

  Fortunately…


  Her clothes were rather loose, and there were no bumps on her body from her assets.

  Xiao Yu stood in front of Jiang Lan and began to shake her body.

  The rain fell on Jiang Lan.

  “…”


  Was she a puppy?

  When Xiao Yu stopped her action, Jiang Lan’s body was a little wet.

  At most, there was no water dripping from Xiao Yu’s body.

  “Junior Brother, you were also drenched by the rain?” Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan and asked with a smile.

  “Yes, it was caused by Xiao Yu(Drizzle). It’s not a big problem.” Jiang Lan kept the book and asked curiously.

  “Senior Sister, why did you get drenched?”


  Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for her to get drenched.

  “Because I was in a hurry to see Junior Brother, I got drenched by the rain. If I appear ordinary like this, I can show you how wet I am from the rain.” Xiao Yu smiled.

  She seemed very happy.

  “Is Senior Sister very happy?” Jiang Lan asked.

  It was indeed nothing for a dragon to be drenched by rain.

  Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan with a dark expression and questioned.

  “Is Junior Brother unhappy to see me?”


  Still in shock… Jiang Lan nodded slightly and said softly.

  “I’m very happy to see you.”


  Then, he placed his hand on Xiao Yu’s hair and used his Dharmic powers to dry it.

  Xiao Yu came to the main hall and sat on her seat. She kicked her feet and waited for Jiang Lan to help her dry her clothes and hair.

  Jiang Lan tapped on Xiao Yu’s shoulder with a finger.

  The rainwater on her clothes instantly disappeared.

  “Senior sister, don’t wet your clothes next time,” Jiang Lan reminded her softly.

  “Can I not do it because I wanted to see Junior Brother quickly?” Xiao Yu turned to look at Jiang Lan behind her and asked.

  “Doesn’t that mean I can’t enter the Jade Pool? Junior Brother, you are too domineering. I have decided to challenge you. Whoever wins will have to listen to the other party. ”


  “…”


  This was not the same thing.

  However, he realized that Xiao Yu’s clothes had never been torn, even when she transformed to become a dragon.

  Was it really a dragon scale?

  Or did she put her clothes away immediately when transforming?

  In the Jade Pool, Xiao Yu had mostly taken the form of a dragon.

  The clothes were normal.
