The hall was grand, and the giant stone pillars supported the dome of the hall.
Two people stood in the spacious hall.
It was Jiang Lan and Ao Longyu.
After receiving the marriage certificate, they were called into the Kunlun Main Hall.
Jiang Lan originally thought that it was to meet the Dragon race and the other Summit Leaders of Kunlun.
To listen to their teachings or get mocked by the dragons.
However, he was wrong.
No one was in the main hall.
Miao Yue only said.
“You two can only leave when the ceremony is over.”
After that, Jiang Lan and Ao Longyu were thrown inside. No one came looking for them.
And no dragons came to cause trouble.
However, he could sense that he now had some sort of connection with Ao Longyu from the stone tablet.
It was binding both parties together.
But to put it nicely, the marriage contract had bound them together forcefully.
To ensure the effect of the engagement.
However, such restriction could not close the emotional distance between people.
Jiang Lan glanced at Ao Longyu beside him. He was too unfamiliar with her so he did not know how to start speaking with her.
He couldn’t find anything to talk about.
Should he start by asking whether Ao Longyu was also forced into this engagement?
That would just be causing trouble for himself.
While Jiang Lan was pondering, Ao Longyu extended her hand.
It stretched out in front of Jiang Lan, as if asking for something.
Then, her clear voice could be heard.
“Give it back to me.”
“???”
Puzzled, Jiang Lan looked at the marriage certificate in his hands. Was this what she wanted?
He then handed the marriage certificate to Ao Longyu.
It did not matter whether he had the marriage certificate or not. It was just a simple token.
The thing that binded them together were actually the inscriptions on their wrists.
“Not this.” Ao Longyu pushed the marriage certificate back.
They all had a marriage certificate. Why would she want Jiang Lan’s?
That would seem rude.
This made Jiang Lan confused. He opened his mouth, and asked.
“Senior Sister, what do you want?”
He did not remember taking anything from Ao Longyu.
What else could it be?
Could it be her freedom?
However, because of this engagement, he had also lost his freedom and was unable to find a Dao-companion on his own, even though he had never intended to find one.
Ao Longyu’s appearance restricted him from finding a Dao companion.
“Sword.”
Ao Longyu spoke in a low voice, but she was still as calm as ever.
Jiang Lan was unable to respond.
He could not think of what sword to bring out.
Ao Longyu raised her head and looked at Jiang Lan. Seeing that Jiang Lan was still puzzled, she explained.
“The wooden sword. I left in a hurry yesterday and forgot to take it back.”
There was no emotion in her voice.
It was no different from the previous transactions.
Jiang Lan came to a realization when he heard Ao Longyu’s words. He looked at Ao Longyu in surprise.
If he wasn’t overthinking things, then Ao Longyu was Xiao Yu?
A child?
Jiang Lan was shocked.
“This is how I actually look. I’m not a child,” Ao Longyu explained.
Jiang Lan recalled the Goddess Diagram from before.
Ao Longyu was still underaged.
Even if she wasn’t a child, she shouldn’t appear like this right?
But he didn’t ask further.
But Xiao Yu was Ao Longyu?
Why did he feel like they were two completely different people?
He found it hard to accept.
As for the wooden sword, he directly took it out and placed it in Ao Longyu’s hands.
“Thank you for your help, Senior Sister.”
Jiang Lan spoke softly.
Xiao Yu had indeed helped him before, but he did not have time to thank her yesterday.
Ao Longyu nodded before handing a book to Jiang Lan.
“This is a gift to thank Junior Brother for letting me experience the true intent of the Dragon Slaying Sword.”
Jiang Lan was silent.
He felt that this gift of thanks was a little strange.
However, he still took the book. Then, he saw that the book was filled with calligraphy.
“…”
He had no intention of explaining or saying anything else.
He just quietly put the book away.
He would wait until he was free before he considered whether to open it or not.
He also kept the marriage certificate.
He also saw Ao Longyu carefully put away her marriage certificate.
Jiang Lan was curious. The other party didn’t seem to hate him at all.
One had to know that Ao Longyu was the Dragon Race’s princess and the Jade Pool Goddess.
Her talent and status were ridiculously high.
However, his talent was mediocre and he only had a Summit Leader as his backbone.
There was nothing else.
Objectively speaking, marrying him was not an affair that would make her happy.
Especially since they couldn’t break the contract.
A normal person would have felt indignant.
“Does Junior Brother have any doubts?” Ao Longyu looked at Jiang Lan calmly.
It was as if she saw the confusion in Jiang Lan’s eyes.
Was he seen through? Jiang Lan was shocked. Was Xiao Yu so smart?
“I’m a bit curious. Don’t you feel wronged?” Jiang Lan asked softly.
He asked more tactfully.
Hearing this question, Ao Longyu was not surprised. She only spoke in a soft and pleasant voice.
“How about Junior Brother? Do you feel wronged?”
Was he wronged? He asked himself in his heart upon hearing Ao Longyu’s question.
He shouldn’t feel aggrieved, right?
“No.”
On the surface, he was not wronged.
In his heart, he merely felt that he was going to have to change his future plans as he now had someone else to factor into his life.
“If Junior Brother doesn’t feel wronged, why should I?” Ao Longyu’s pleasant voice was heard before she spoke again.
“And I don’t hate Junior Brother either.”
Jiang Lan was silent. So he was tricked by Xiao Yu earlier?
However, after a brief exchange, he discovered that Ao Longyu was doing better than he had expected.
This meant that it was almost impossible for him to break the contract.
After that, they did not speak.
He was listening to the grand ceremony outside.
After a long time, the ceremony came to an end and everyone began to leave.
“I think it’s over.”
Jiang Lan spoke.
“Yes.” Ao Longyu nodded.
“I wonder if those seniors will come in and say something.”
Jiang Lan felt that the possibility of them entering was very high.
People from Kunlun and the Dragon Race could come in and give them some instructions to follow.
Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, no one came.
It was as if everyone had left.
“They’re all gone?” Ao Longyu sounded surprised.
“Let’s go out and take a look.”
Jiang Lan was also surprised. Did tehy really not care about them?
The two of them walked out.
She realized that there was no one outside.
It was getting late and night was about to cover the sky.
“Seems like they have nothing to tell us.”
Ao Longyu looked around and said.
“Mn.” Jiang Lan agreed.
The two of them started walking down the mountain.
This was probably the rare time they spent together.
Not including the time he had spent with Xiao Yu.
“Junior Brother, do you have any plans?” Ao Longyu asked.
“Return to the Ninth Summit to enter seclusion,” Jiang Lan said.
“To become an immortal?”
“Yes, to become an immortal.”
Those who cultivated all aimed to achieved immortality. Even though there was still some distance between him and immortality, his final goal was definitely to achieve immortality.
This was everyone’s initial goal, or a lifetime goal.
If one did not become an immortal, one would always be put in a dangerous situation due to insufficient strength.
Ao Longyu lowered her brows and fell silent.
Because after Jiang Lan became an immortal, it meant that they were going to get married.
With the Jade Pool, she would become an immortal earlier than Jiang Lan.
That was why the time when Jiang Lan became an immortal.
Would be the time when they got married.
