Chapter 248: Senior Sister, I’ll Protect You

Xiao Yu stood in front of the courtyard and looked at Jiang Lan.

Snow drifted down from nowhere.

A chill ran down her spine.

She stood there without moving, only opening her eyes to look at Jiang Lan.

At this time, Jiang Lan’s speed of flipping through the book became slower and slower.

As if knowing that the book was about to be flipped to the last few pages, he felt a little reluctant.

Ten years.

A book that wasn’t too thick was flipped over by Jiang Lan for an entire ten years.

Finally, it was over.

She didn’t know what it meant, but she roughly knew that her Junior Brother was about to wake up.

It was either today or tomorrow.

The snow was falling harder and harder. Xiao Yu stood rooted to the ground.

She looked at Jiang Lan and let the snow fall on her body.

The wind howled.

It was snowing all around, and there was a layer of white on her body.

She did not move at all because she did not know when but she suddenly felt a blanket of warmth envelope her.

It was as if her Junior Brother could sense her presence.

Splash!

Xiao Yu saw Jiang Lan flipping to the last page.

Pu!

Jiang Lan gently closed the book.

The moment the book closed, Jiang Lan’s eyes slowly closed.

At this moment.

The wind stopped, and so did the snow.

All sorts of changes seemed to occur in the surroundings at once. It was like a spring breeze had arrived, the summer sun was far away, autumn leaves were falling, and winter snow was falling.

But nothing had changed.

The snow was still on Xiao Yu’s body.

The next moment.

Jiang Lan opened his eyes.

The wind moved from where he stood, blowing into the drizzle, scattering the winter snow.

Woosh!

As the white receded, the summer heat began to strike.

A hundred flowers bloomed at the same time, and a refreshing fragrance wafted through the air.

In an instant, Xiao Yu realized that the snow around her had faded away and returned to its original state.

It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

Or perhaps it was a change in Jiang Lan’s mental state.

“Senior Sister, long time no see.”

Jiang Lan placed the book on the table and looked at Xiao Yu.

He had read for ten years and comprehended ten years of Dao.

The moment he gained enlightenment, he understood the principles of the world and the foundation of the great Dao.

Today, he had entered the threshold of the great Dao.

Once he reached the perfected True Immortal Realm, he could transcend and become an immortal of Heaven and Earth, awaiting the recognition of the great Dao.

Due to the influence of the Catoptric Deflection, his mental state went up another small step.

It could be said that he had been dreaming for ten years.

The Dao Comprehension Tea was effective.

After these years of cultivation, it was time for him to change his cultivation on the surface.

He would change his surface-level cultivation to that of the perfected Essence Soul Realm while his hidden cultivation would be adjusted to the early-stage Void Refinement Realm.

His true cultivation did not change much, but…

From today onwards, his cultivation would advance by leaps and bounds.

He would reach the perfected True Immortal Realm within a short period of time.

However, he was surprised to see Xiao Yu the moment he woke up.

For the past ten years, he more or less knew of Xiao Yu’s visits.

Luckily, it was not the first time he got drunk for ten years. Otherwise, Xiao Yu would not be able to even get near him.

This time, he was comprehending the Dao, so he was fine.

Everything was a transformation of the Dao.

“Junior Brother has not seen me for ten years.” Xiao Yu looked at Jiang Lan. She then turned around and said.

“I’m here to let Junior Brother take a look.”

Xiao Yu smiled like a flower under the sun.

Her smile was pure, radiant, and alluring.

When she saw Jiang Lan looking at her, Xiao Yu made another turn. However, this time, it was different from before.

Her body was growing taller and bigger.

After one round, Xiao Yu returned to normal.

She stood in front of Jiang Lan.

Her pure appearance transformed into one that was aloof and elegant.

Jiang Lan was surprised to see the normal Xiao Yu. However, the normal Xiao Yu appeared exceptionally beautiful today.

She had smooth skin and jade-like bones. She also had a beautiful face and was as beautiful as a painting.

“Here.” Ao Longyu extended his hand and handed the wooden sword to Jiang Lan.

“It’s been ten years since Junior Brother had embedded my wooden sword with your sword intent.”

Ao Longyu’s voice was calm, but it was no longer cold.

However, it was not as casual as how she would normally speak when she took the form of Xiao Yu.

After receiving the wooden sword, Jiang Lan intended to start his task.

However, as soon as he took the wooden sword, Xiao Yu started to become smaller.

Her height decreased and her ice peaks grew smaller.

A leak…

This wonderful thought flashed across Jiang Lan’s mind.

The thought flashed through his mind, but he didn’t pay much attention to it.

“Has Junior Brother finished admiring me?”

Xiao Yu jumped to Jiang Lan’s side and sat down slowly. She continued.

“Junior Brother, you haven’t seen me in ten years, but I see you every year. But…”

“But?” Jiang Lan began to embed the Dragon Slaying Sword’s Sword Intent into the wooden sword.

The highest limit the sword intent could last in the wooden sword was still one year.

He was very curious if Xiao Yu had comprehended the Dragon Slaying Sword.

After so many years, she should have more or less gained some insights into it, right?

Unless…

She did not even try comprehending it.

Of course, Jiang Lan didn’t mind.

He just needed to help embed it with sword intent.

Xiao Yu stole a glance at Jiang Lan and said.

“I’m just not tired of coming here.”

Jiang Lan looked at Xiao Yu.

What greeted him was a bright smile.

“Senior Sister’s smile has caused the surrounding flowers to lose their color,” Jiang Lan said softly.

Xiao Yu pulled a face and asked.

“What about now? Are your eyes alright?”

Jiang Lan: “…”

He didn’t say anything. Instead, he lowered his head and continued doing his job.

His Senior Sister was indeed a child.

From the looks of it, she was around sixteen years old now with her mid-stage Void Refinement cultivation. Only after she transcends to become an immortal would she reach adulthood.

No matter how he looked at it, it didn’t seem like she was about to become an adult.

Speaking of which, the Eighth Prince had been an adult since birth and had lost his childhood.

It seemed like a loss.

“Does Senior Sister have something troubling you?” Jiang Lan looked down at the wooden sword and asked.

Xiao Yu was dazzling, and so was her ghost face.

But before this, he more or less felt Xiao Yu’s worry.

“Yes.” Xiaoyu was very honest. She looked at Jiang Lan and explained.

“A few years ago, I received news that my younger brother had gone missing. No one knows where he has gone.”

“The Eighth Prince?” Jiang Lan asked Xiaoyu.

He had a good impression of the Eighth Prince. He was a sensible dragon.

He was born as an innate immortal but he was not arrogant.

Moreover, how could the Dragon Race not be able to find such a person who went missing?

“For the past few years, the powerhouses in our race have been trying to find his whereabouts, but there has been no progress. The heavenly secrets have been concealed.” Xiao Yu sighed and heaved a sigh of relief.

“But his life is not in danger yet.”

Xiao Yu felt that her brother was actually quite good.

Speaking of Jiang Lan, he always called Jiang Lan brother-in-law. Whenever he saw her, he would even kneel down and greet her.

He always said that he would be an obedient brother in the future.

He was pretty cute, wasn’t he?

“Where was he last seen?” Jiang Lan asked.

Although he didn’t know why he would disappear, he could still pay attention to it.

“I heard that he went with Uncle Ao Ye to some place in the Demon Race to gather information but never returned. Uncle Ao Ye has disappeared as well.” Xiao Yu was somewhat worried.

But she couldn’t care less about such things.

She could only wait quietly for news.

She was far from being an immortal.

“It should be fine,” Jiang Lan consoled.

Did Ao Ye go drinking again?

Then…

As for what they encountered, Jiang Lan naturally didn’t know. In the end, whether or not they could survive depended on luck.

The Dragon Race probably had the same guess as to whether the Demon Race was the culprit.

They should have more or less responded.

If they still couldn’t find them, it meant that they couldn’t get a satisfactory answer from the demons.

“Innate immortals are usually protected by the fate energy of the Dragon Race. It is indeed not easy for something to happen to him.” Xiao Yu recovered and looked at herself.

“On the other hand, I am the ordinary one.”

“Senior Sister, I will protect you.” Jiang Lan looked at Xiao Yu.
