Xiao Yu jumped on the ground. Her body was already dry.

  There was not a drop of rain left on her.

  She turned around and pointed at Jiang Lan.

  “Junior Brother, show your cultivation.”


  Jiang Lan: “…”


  He then revealed his early-stage Void Refinement cultivation base and nothing else.

  “Oh, early-stage Void Refinement Realm.” Xiao Yu thought for a moment before replying.

  “Then I’ll suppress my cultivation to that of a mid-stage Void Refinement cultivator and fight with Junior Brother. I’m at a huge disadvantage.”


  His Senior Sister was starting to not care about her face anymore, Jiang Lan thought as he looked at Xiao Yu.

  As the number of times his Senior Sister came increased, the livelier she became, and the richer her expressions became.

  There were fewer and fewer barriers between them

  They had never mentioned about making fair trades again.

  Jiang Lan didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, he felt more at ease.

  “Let’s fight in the square,” Jiang Lan suggested.

  Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan and said.

  “If we are to fight, I will become the normal me. Junior Brother, do you want to see me drenched and laugh at me?”


  “I thought you knew I was going to activate the array formation”, Jiang Lan thought.

  It had rained for a long time.

  Xiao Yu sat beside Jiang Lan and watched as Jiang Lan embedded his Dragon Slaying Sword’s Sword Intent into the wooden sword. As long as she understood how Jiang Lan managed to embed the Dragon Slaying Sword’s Sword Intent, she might be able to comprehend the Dragon Slaying Sword.

  At night.

  Xiao Yu sat beside Jiang Lan, leaning on the wooden table as she watched the rain fall outside and listened to the sound of the rain outside. She felt exceptionally peaceful.

  “Junior Brother, how long do you think the rain will last?” Xiao Yu asked Jiang Lan beside her.

  “Probably till tomorrow.” Jiang Lan looked at the heavy rain outside and said.

  “Then we’ll just watch and see when we stop and then head out to compete,” Xiao Yu whispered.

  After saying that, she returned to normal.

  Jiang Lan looked at Xiao Yu in surprise.

  “Get used to it,” Xiao Yu said.

  As she spoke, she continued to lie on the table and look outside.

  Jiang Lan looked down at the table, a bit surprised.

  Unlike earlier…


  After a long time, Jiang Lan withdrew his gaze from the outside.

  The rain began to become smaller.

  However, when his gaze landed on Senior Sister Ao, he noticed that she had fallen asleep once again.

  Without making a sound, he continued to embed his Dragon Slaying Sword’s Sword Intent into the wooden sword.

  He suddenly discovered that a dragon could actually sleep beside a sword with the Dragon Slaying Sword’s Sword Intent.

  Jiang Lan sighed inwardly.

  However, he didn’t think too much about it and continued to do his task.

  It was morning.

  The rain fell, and multicolored light illuminated the forest.

  Jiang Lan’s house lit up.

  Xiao Yu opened her eyes slowly and stood up from the table.

  She stretched lazily and said to Jiang Lan.

  “Junior Brother, is it still raining?”


  Jiang Lan glanced at Xiao Yu, surprised.

  Xiao Yu was now in the form of Ao Longyu.

  Could she still be so casual?

  Furthermore, it felt completely different from before.

  Ao Longyu was a little surprised to see Jiang Lan in a daze. She lowered her head to take a look.

  “…”


  Something blocked her view.

  At this moment, he suddenly recalled Junior Sister Siya’s words. She immediately lowered his hand and moved to the side silently.

  She then stole a glance at Jiang Lan and discovered that she was indeed different from how she was smaller.

  At the thought of this, she immediately turned into the smaller Xiao Yu.

  When she saw Jiang Lan looking at her, she silently shifted her position.

  Jiang Lan: “…”


  Had they returned to the stage where he could make her move just by staring at her?

  In the afternoon.

  Xiao Yu bade farewell to Jiang Lan.

  “Junior Brother, I’ll come back in a few days. We’ll compete then. Whoever loses will have to listen to the other party.”


  Jiang Lan nodded in acknowledgment.

  Then, he watched Xiao Yu leave.

  Xiao Yu blushed slightly when she left.

  He did not think much about it.

  As for the challenge match…


  Xiao Yu had suppressed her cultivation to the mid-stage Void Refinement Realm, so theoretically speaking, she was giving in to him.

  It seemed like Xiao Yu would definitely win.

  Of course, it was impossible for Jiang Lan to lose.

  In the square, with the help of his array formations, even a Human Immortal might not be able to defeat him.

  The array formations were not weak be it in its defense or attack capabilities. The amount of energy accumulated was uncountable.

  It was hard to say if a Human Immortal could even injure the ground with his full strength.

  Naturally, Xiao Yu could not do it either.

  After stopping for a moment, Jiang Lan began to sense the Deity Position.

  He did not know if it was an illusion, but if he stayed with Xiao Yu for long, his control over the Deity Position would also increase.

  Was it because of the Jade Pool?

  He was certain that Xiao Yu did not have any fortuitous opportunity on her.

  Perhaps the Jade Pool was comparable to a fortuitous encounter and was born from Kunlun.

  It had a special effect on it.

  He would observe carefully the next time.

  …


  …


  “I’ve never heard that the Witchcloud Gathering is being held here. It doesn’t feel right.”


  Jiang Lan came to the place where Kunlun held its lectures.

  He came out to listen to the opinions of others.

  At the same time, he wanted to see if there was any news about the various factions.

  The battles of the various factions would sometimes affect Kunlun.

  For example, the war between the demons and dragons.

  It had affected him before.

  Although the Deity Position had appeared, it should not be easy for the person to keep it his.

  Otherwise, why would Imperial Lord Xi He keep hiding?

  If it was not by chance, he would not have known of Imperial Lord Xi He’s existence.

  “Furthermore, all the young geniuses of the various factions have gathered in Kunlun and the rules have been changed this time. When the time comes, they will all fight in the mystic realm and no one outside will know what is happening inside.”


  “I’ve also heard that the people that enter will each bring a treasure with them. The winner will obtain the other party’s treasure. Just thinking about it makes me realize how extraordinary it is.”


  “Perhaps it’s just a discussion of the Dao, and everyone stops when victory is determined?”


  “Naive. The various factions in the Grand Desolate World do not have any good people. We are not pushovers either. It is not certain who will suffer in the end.”


  “The people of the Eighth Summit might prefer this rule.”


  “That’s true. I heard from them that the Senior Brothers and Sisters of the Eighth Summit did not have a fun enough time during the previous Witchcloud Gathering.”


  “It’s actually beneficial to us. After all, not everyone can go to the Witchcloud Gathering and not see such a grand scene.”


  “Yes, there are battles everywhere in the Grand Desolate World while we only have small skirmishes here. It’s not a good thing to be too comfortable and lack experience.”


  Jiang Lan agreed.

  It was indeed not good to be inexperienced in bloody battles.

  This was also the reason why his master had always wanted him to train outside Kunlun.

  A place where there were enemies that were neither too strong nor too weak.

  Not only could it increase his experience, it was also beneficial to his advancement.

  Except…


  He wanted it to be a little later so that he could be a little safer.

  If it was already so dangerous around Kunlun.

  Woosh!

  Suddenly, a sound came from the sky.

  The people around them immediately looked up.

  Jiang Lan looked towards the sky and saw a huge ship that looked rather familiar.

  “The people from the Heavenly Human Race?”


  The only people Jiang Lan had seen who had such a Dharma treasure were the people from the Heavenly Human Race.

  It was quite surprising. Someone from the Heavenly Human Race died in Kunlun, but the other party didn’t retaliate at all. It was rumored that they didn’t even mention it.

  And now, they had come directly to Kunlun.

  It seemed like a friendly visit.

  Although it was a high-profile arrival, it wasn’t domineering.

  It was as if it was just to inform Kunlun that they were here.

  Sure enough, there were people from Kunlun flying into the sky.

  Then, the people from the Heavenly Human Race were brought to the First Summit.

  However, when the ship headed towards the First Summit, Jiang Lan felt that someone was looking at him.

  It was coming from the Heavenly Human Race’s flying Dharma treasure.

  “…”


  As it turned out.

  The Witchcloud Gathering was indeed not suitable for him.
