Chapter 235 Why do you want to deal with the ancient warrior?
After the black-robed elder was taken away, the matter came to an end.
"I didn't expect that the murderer in the end was neither Xuanzong nor the Hunter District, but just a casual cultivator from the ancient martial arts world." Shi Feng came over to greet the two of them before leaving, but his tone was full of fear, "Now there are no tigers in the mountains, monkeys Called the king, one person can cause so many things, and I'm afraid I won't be able to live in peace in the future. Hey, I don't know when Xuanzong will elect a new patriarch to take charge of the overall situation?"
These words were just an emotion. He didn't expect the two people in front of him to answer, and left quickly.
After everyone left and Xie Chenan returned to the B&B to inform other ancient warriors, Xiao Yunting turned to look at the girl beside him.
"What do you think?"
"Huh?" Ye Lan was slightly distracted and didn't hear clearly.
So Xiao Yunting completed his words in a low voice, "When do you think the new patriarch of Xuanzong will be chosen?"
I believe that high-level officials in China and even the world are paying close attention to this issue.
Although the identity of the girl is unknown now, it is certain that she must have a high status and know some inside information.
Hearing this, Ye Lan thought of the command message he sent to the computer, and suddenly felt guilty, "I'm afraid I can't choose yet."
You must know that every patriarch of Xuanzong has been in office for more than a hundred years, and those with ability can live to be two hundred years old.
And Ye Lan, a super genius, was designated as the next clan leader as soon as she spoke out, and everyone's expectations for her were infinitely higher.
Now as long as there is a glimmer of hope, everyone in Xuanzong will wait for her to return.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yunting's half-cast eyes flashed with a faint light, and his voice was low and slow: "Aren't you worried that something will happen?"
This is almost an affirmation.
Ye Lan shrugged and said truthfully: "We just finished a big war, and all the major sects suffered heavy losses. Now the only ones who have the ability to make trouble are soldiers and generals. If there is something wrong, it is probably not from the ancient martial arts world."
She said it straightforwardly, and Xiao Yunting understood immediately.
"Is there someone outside who is sabotaging it?"
"Yeah." Ye Lan responded, feeling a little tired after standing for a long time, so he walked towards the B&B, saying as he walked: "Perhaps he wants to frame someone up, or perhaps he wants to use this to open up a channel to the ancient martial arts world. It’s all possible.”
Xiao Yunting saw that she spoke with a normal face and her attitude was even more calm and indifferent, and a trace of doubt appeared in his heart again.
The girl's life history was so clean that it couldn't be filled on a single piece of paper, so the current situation where everything was clear and frank and unconcerned seemed very inconsistent.
Ye Lan had been thinking about something else, so she didn't notice the silence of the man behind her until she reached the door of the B&B.
Before entering the door, she turned around and asked the other party, "Why do you want to deal with the ancient warrior?"
Behind him, Xiao Yunting paused and looked over with a pair of deep eyes, but did not answer.
This was the first time that he did not respond to Ye Lan's question.
Ye Lan seemed to feel something in his heart, frowned slightly, and then said: "Is this what the higher-ups meant?"
"..."
Xiao Yunting remained silent.
But this is actually an answer.
Ye Lan's heart sank, and the indifference on his face was replaced by a look of coldness, "Then what do they mean?"
This they refer to the superiors of China.
Xiao Yunting saw that she was really attached to the ancient martial arts world, so he didn't hide it, and said slowly with a bit of solemnity in his voice: "They don't want the ancient martial arts world to be born."
If a group of races that are far beyond the abilities of ordinary people stay in a corner, they are geniuses, but if these people escape, they will become madmen.
The golden mean is a principle practiced by all those in high positions.
Ye Lan sneered at this.
She looked away lightly and responded lightly, "I know."
There was no further talk.
At this time, Xie Chenan came out and saw that the atmosphere between the two was not right, and what he wanted to say was awkward in mid-air.
"You guys, quarreled?"
He asked the two of them, his tone somewhat happy.
Xiao Yunting's face turned cold, and his tone became even more indifferent, "She's just tired."
"Yes." Ye Lan responded cooperatively, "Then I'll go upstairs to rest."
After saying that, he walked towards the B&B.
Xiao Yunting looked at her back, his slightly pursed thin lips stretched into a line. When the girl was about to disappear from the front desk, he continued to speak: "I will pick you up tonight, as promised, to make up for your birthday."
Ye Lan paused at the front desk and looked back sideways. His face was also a little ugly, but he still nodded, "Okay."
That was the agreement they made in the fantasy world, and she was not one to break an appointment.
Afterwards, the two separated.
Ye Lan returned to the house and began to meditate with her eyes closed, but after sitting quietly for a long time, she still could not enter the state. Instead, her energy became more and more chaotic, and she almost hurt herself.
She stopped her hand in time, stood up, walked to the table and started writing.
This is her second method of concentrating.
Buckle.
"Ye Lan, are you asleep?"
At this time, Xie Chenan's voice came from outside the house, "I saw that the lights in your room were still on, and I wanted to come and have a chat with you."
Ye Lan stopped grinding, tilted his head and responded calmly: "Please come in."
The ancient style of the B&B here is created. Except for the fixed light source, the rest of the decorations imitate the Five Dynasties period.
So Xie Chenan can see the light through the paper window.
The other party noticed her attitude as soon as he entered the room, and was a little confused for a moment, "You stayed up most of the night, cultivating your sentiments?"
Ye Lan lowered his eyes and continued the movements in his hands, saying in a calm tone, "Be calm."
"Eh? You still want to meditate? I thought you were always calm!" Xie Chenan was shocked by her words and almost suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
Ye Lan: "..."
That was true before, but now things are a little more complicated.
The demon's blessing was too powerful, and she had just come out of the illusion, so her mood could not be restored for a while.
Seeing her purse her lips, Xie Chenan's eyes suddenly became worried, "What have you experienced in the few hours you disappeared? I feel like you have become different."
He came here specifically for this purpose tonight.
"Oh?" After hearing this, Ye Lan's expression remained unchanged, "What's the difference?"
"Well, for example, this." Xie Chenan pointed at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, "You were too lazy to write in class, but now you are meditating with calligraphy."
"..." Ye Lan looked down at the things in front of his desk and slowly put down the pen.
Indeed, that was her habit in the fantasy world.
"Also." Xie Chenan hesitated for a while and then said with erratic eyes: "What's going on with Xiao Yunting? Why did he want to celebrate your birthday..."
In fact, he can also celebrate her birthday in any grand way.
Ye Lan thought of the fantasy of the three years of working together for the Ming Dynasty. He didn't know how to explain it. He just said lightly, "He has the right to do this."
what?
What does it mean to have the right to do this!
Xie Chenan was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide. Thoughts suddenly came to his mind, and he felt bad.
As a result, the next day, an even more explosive news reached his ears.
Xiao Yunting wants to celebrate his adopted daughter's birthday.
