Chapter 73: It’s Too Dangerous To Be Under Everyone’s Eyes
Everyone looked at Ao Longyu.
They all didn’t understand what she wanted to do.
Soon, they saw Ao Longyu walking out of the Jade Pool.
Then, they saw countless water droplets condensing around Ao Longyu, transforming from the original water droplets into real water beads.
It was like changing from mist to liquid, then from liquid to solid.
They had no idea what Ao Longyu was doing.
However, they soon saw Ao Longyu walking towards the junior brother of the Ninth Summit.
She was walking towards Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan was surprised.
He looked at Ao Longyu and saw that her eyes were unusually calm, as if she had never intended to explain what she was doing.
It felt as if she was only doing what she felt was right.
The others just looked on. No one spoke.
They were actually very curious.
When Ao Longyu approached Jiang Lan, she raised her hand.
Then, countless streams of water gathered in her hands.
In the end, it completely turned into an aqua blue bead.
The moment the bead took form, Ao Longyu stood in front of Jiang Lan.
She handed over the bead and spoke to Jiang Lan in a pleasant voice.
“This is my gift of gratitude.”
She didn’t say what it was, but she felt that Jiang Lan should understand.
She understood why she was able to enter the Jade Pool.
It was all because of Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan looked at the blue bead and decided to take it without hesitation.
He reached out to receive it.
“Thank you, Senior Sister.”
After Jiang Lan received the pearl, Ao Longyu nodded and turned to walk towards the Jade Pool.
She couldn’t leave the Jade Pool anytime soon, so she could only stay up there.
Jiang Lan took a glance at the blue bead before putting it away.
He could tell that this was the essence of everything in the Jade Pool, Kunlun’s Creation.
The others were also surprised.
They knew how valuable the item in Jiang Lan’s hands was.
Relying on this bead, his cultivation speed would definitely double.
And it would last for a long time.
However, no one understood Ao Longyu’s intentions.
These two people knew each other?
Cooperation was random. Everyone knew that.
However, no one knew who to ask.
They were often in seclusion and did not know both of them.
They then decided that they would ask the others in the sect about the situation of these two when there was time.
Jing Ting and Mu Xiu understood.
The Exclusion Array Formation was something Senior Sister Ao learned from Jiang Lan.
Senior Sister Ao was able to enter the Jade Pool because of this array formation.
However, when they saw Jiang Lan obtaining the bead, they also felt better.
The Ninth Summit’s disadvantage was too obvious.
They all understood that it would be very difficult for Jiang Lan to continue improving.
If one ate too many pills, it was easy to develop immunity against them.
After Ao Longyu entered the Jade Pool, the surroundings started to fog up.
Everyone understood that it was time to leave.
Hong Luan looked at Ao Longyu before sighing and leaving.
The others also rode on their swords away from the Jade Pool.
Lin Siya felt that she would not be able to see Senior Sister for a long time. With this, the difference in strength between them has become greater too.
Jiang Lan did not linger and returned to the Ninth Summit on his sword.
He was very careful along the way, but this time, no one stopped him.
Nothing happened.
The others seemed to care a lot about their own water droplets and wanted to go back and absorb them immediately.
The Jade Pool Observance Ceremony this time had benefited Jiang Lan greatly.
Not mentioning the Jade Pool Goddess Diagram.
Just Ao Longyu’s gift alone was already very useful.
He understood why she thanked him.
Ao Longyu didn’t like owing others, and he didn’t need anyone to owe him.
However, the timing at which she gave him this treasure was rather unexpected.
“There were too many people present then. This means that many people know that I have a treasure. I won’t be able to leave the Ninth Summit for the next few decades. I shall just focus on digesting it. After a few decades, they would know that the bead was exhausted. No one would think about it then.”
Soon, Jiang Lan returned to the ninth peak.
He first went to the peak of the Ninth Summit to meet his Master.
A goddess had appeared in the Jade Pool, and it was no small matter in Kunlun.
He needed to tell his master about it.
“Master,” Jiang Lan called out from the peak of the mountain.
His master was present today.
Mo Zhengdong looked at Jiang Lan and said softly.
“Has the ceremony ended?”
“It’s over. Senior Sister Ao of the Third Summit has entered the Jade Pool,” Jiang Lan answered honestly.
“What do you need?” Mo Zhengdong suddenly asked.
Jiang Lan was a little surprised, but he quickly understood.
When the Jade Pool opened, the other eight summits in Kunlun had changed. Only the Ninth Summit remained the same.
Besides, he was even given unfair treatment on the spot.
Perhaps his master felt that he was wronged?
“I want to stay inside when the Netherworld Cave erupts,” Jiang Lan requested.
Since his master wanted to give him something, he naturally accepted it.
“I need to check on you once a month,” Mo Zhengdong said.
“Many thanks, Master,” Jiang Lan immediately said.
That way, he could continue to stay inside.
Otherwise, he would have to come out after some time.
It wouldn’t be long before the Netherworld’s Cave eruption reached its peak.
It wasn’t safe then.
And he would naturally act accordingly.
After that, Jiang Lan left the peak of the Ninth Summit and poured some spirit liquid onto the vegetative egg before cultivating.
Mo Zhengdong watched Jiang Lan leave.
This disciple was much more outstanding than he had expected.
Perhaps his talent was inferior to those from the other summits, but he felt that it was enough.
He was very lucky to have such a disciple.
It felt gratifying for him.
Jiang Lan’s talent wasn’t enough, and achieving immortality was difficult for him.
Mo Zhengdong had always known this.
He had also been preparing for this.
When the time came, he would help his proud disciple.
