Chapter 257: Another one? Aren’t you done?
Central City, a group of people slowly walked into the city gate.
This was a group of young Daoists. They were all dressed in light blue Daoist robes and had a high Daoist nun. They looked cold and aloof.
Leader was a Daoist nun in white.
Pure white Daoist robe was not stained with fine dust. It was faintly embroidered by the flying clouds. Sleeves of her robe fluttered as if she wanted to ride the wind.
Her face was handsome and cold, and her eyes were black and white, like a distant moon in the horizon.
Surrounding pedestrians stopped and looked at them in surprise.
"This Daoist robe? It's the Tianshu Institute!"
"White and black hair, flying cloud embroidery… Could this person be fairy Lin?"
"It's fairy Lin! I was lucky enough to meet you in Southern Wind City!"
"Lin Langyue, the first genius, has she also come?"
"Looks like the Tianshu Institute is determined to win this time!"
"To be lucky enough to be able to see the graceful bearing of a fairy, this trip really is worth it!"
"Fairy Lin is so beautiful!"
"Don't use this vulgar word to describe a fairy!"
…….
Everyone was discussing excitedly.
Tianshu Institute didn't care about the world's affairs, and Lin Langyue rarely showed up in the mortal world. However, there were countless people in the vast land.
Even if Li Ran defeated her, it wouldn't affect her image.
After all, that was the first day of meeting the devil. Wasn't it normal to lose to him?
Lin Langyue's eyes were calm. Crowd in front of her was bustling, but no one caught her eye.
It wasn't just arrogance. It came from indifference in her bones.
However, her current mood was far from that calm.
"Although Master agreed to let me out, I still feel that she was a little unhappy…"
Originally, Yi Qinglan had agreed to her coming to Central City.
However, ever since they had taken a bath together, she had become particularly concerned about this matter. She even said they would change the team to let her cultivate properly.
If it weren't for the elders' persuasion, she probably wouldn't have let her out.
"Master doesn't seem to like me very much these days. I wonder what I did wrong?" She was puzzled.
At that moment, the deacon beside her asked, "Chief Lin, our sect's strong hold is in the west of the city. Are we going there directly?"
Lin Langyue thought about it and said, "Bring someone over. I want to meet an old friend first."
"Old friend?" Deacon was confused.
Chief rarely went down the mountain and wasn't good at socializing. What kind of friends could she have among mortals?
However, she didn't question him. She nodded and left.
Lin Langyue blushed. "I hope he's back too."
……
Li family mansion.
Looking at the four girls in front of him, Li Daoyuan's heart was filled with mixed feelings.
If they were looking for a daughter-in-law, all four of them were more than qualified.
Their cultivation was high, their background was deep, and each of them was as beautiful as a flower.
Whether it was body, appearance, or status, they were a perfect match for Li Ran.
It wasn't that Li Daoyuan couldn't accept them.
Problem was that the Youluo Temple had a ban!
Leng Wuyan had banned her disciples from marrying, so it was fine if Li Ran broke the rules as the Sheng Zi Li, but he broke the rules four times!
Target was either the Princess of the dynasty or the Chief of a Sect!
Li Daoyuan was panicking.
"After Sect Master Leng finds out, she won't cripple Li Ran's cultivation and drive him out of the sect, right?
"With Sect Master Leng's personality, it wouldn't be strange even if she flattened the Li family."
"I wonder if I can stop her…"
Yue Jianli stood up while he was day dreaming.
She held a light purple wooden box in her hand, and there was a faint light in it.
"Uncle Li, this Nine Leaves Immortal Tea was obtained by this junior in the sect's Treasure Storage Pavilion. I brought it here for you to try."
Li Daoyuan was taken aback. He quickly waved his hand and said, "This gift is too precious. I can't accept it."
He had heard of the Nine Leaves Immortal Tea.
It was said that it contained the essence of spirit energy. It did not need to be refined to nourish itself.
It was possible for ordinary people to cultivate for a day if they took a sip. Cultivators who drank it could also strengthen their cultivation. It was a treasure of immortal tea.
Yue Jianli smiled and said, "Uncle Li, don't refuse. This is just a token of my appreciation."
At this moment, Qin Ruyan also walked over and took out a jade piece. It was carved with high mountains and flowing water, and some spirit energy was faintly emitted.
"Uncle Li, this is a spiritual treasure that this junior obtained in the Western Region. It's called the Landscape Painting Wall."
"Placing it in the room can not only harmonize the spirit energy but also make people feel at peace."
"It has the effect of cultivating one's body and nature."
Li Daoyuan looked at the two of them and smiled wryly. "You two are too polite. This gift is really precious. I really can't accept it."
Two women hesitated and looked at Li Ran as if asking for help.
"Alright," Li Ran said.
Li Ran was amused. He cleared his throat and said, "Since it's their intention, Father, don't refuse."
"This…" Li Daoyuan hesitated for a moment before reaching out to receive it. "Thank you very much."
"Uncle Li is too polite." Two women heaved a sigh of relief and smiled like flowers blooming.
Li Daoyuan sighed in his heart.
Which of these people wasn't a goddess?
Although the Li family's strength wasn't bad, they weren't any weaker than the royal family and top-tier sects.
But because of Li Ran, they lowered their posture.
For a moment, he was somewhat touched.
"Forget it. Although Li Ran is wild and unrestrained, he doesn't miss a single thing. I think he knows." Li Daoyuan gradually relaxed.
Since he couldn't care less, he couldn't be bothered to think too much.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the reception hall became much more harmonious.
At that moment, the servant's voice came from outside the door once again. "Young Master, you have another friend."
"Ah?" Li Ran was taken aback. "Another one? Who else could it be this time?"
Servant scratched his head and said, "That girl has already entered…"
Before he could finish his sentence, a graceful figure slowly walked in.
Daoist robe was snow-white, with features and eyes like a painting. Its temperament was clear and cold, like a fairy that walked out of a painting.
"Sheng Zi Li!" She looked at Li Ran with surprise.
Hall instantly fell silent.
Girls stared blankly at her, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Qin Ruyan frowned and muttered, "Why is she here?"
Li Daoyuan asked in confusion, "Saint Qin, this is…"
"Lin Langyue," said Qin Ruyan softly.
"Who?" Li Daoyuan was struck by lightning.
Lin Langyue?
Lin Langyue, the number one genius in the Tianshu Institute?
Why did she come to the Li family?
Suddenly, Li Daoyuan thought of something, and his eyes widened.
After looking at Lin Langyue and then Li Ran, his throat felt a bit dry.
"This kid wouldn't dare to provoke the Tianshu Institute, right?
"Li Ran, aren’t you done yet?"
