In addition to Ji Yanhu, there were other body-refining monks on the flying boat. These people were both male and female, and they were all friends of Ji Yanhu.
Ji Yanhu went to compete with Lu Ning, how could they not go and take a look.
"Brother Hu, this is your first battle in eight big cities, so we need to be quick and easy to impress the brothers and let the people in Tianshui City know how powerful we are."
"You don't have to tell me, Brother Hu knows it well."
Several people talked to each other in excited tones.
The news that Ji Yanhu was about to challenge Lu Ning had already spread throughout Galaxy City. In addition to the Ji family's flying boat, there were also flying boats from other sects and families, all of whom came to watch the fun.
There were hundreds of flying boats, some big and some small, flying out of Galaxy City in twos and threes.
The scene is quite spectacular.
Galaxy City is several million kilometers away from Tianshui City. Even if the airship maintains several times the speed of sound, it will not be able to reach it in a short time.
The length of the earth's equator is about 40,000 kilometers. It can be seen that the Qianyuan world is many times larger than the earth.
the other side.
Tianshui City.
The news that Lu Ning will accept Ji Yanhu from Galaxy City has been widely spread in Tianshui City.
The previous battle between Lu Ning and Zhou Shenghao could only be regarded as Tianshui City's own affair.
This time, the competition between Lu Ning and Ji Yanhu was a matter between the two cities and related to the honor of the two great human cities. No one wanted Lu Ning to lose.
Ji Yanhu's reputation is naturally known to the people of Tianshui City. It has been widely spread in the Qianyuan world for a long time, and he is quite famous. If he had not fallen midway, he would have been the overlord in the future.
The venue for the competition was chosen to be in the Qingyan Mountains in Tianshui City. People came over early to take up positions.
All major sects have them.
Even the people from the Zixia Sect and the Jade Girl Sect came over in advance. Small sects like them had to come over early for fear of not being able to get a place.
---------------
Zixia Sect.
The elixir garden.
Lan Qingzheng and her mother Peng Qiaorong were sitting in the small courtyard.
Peng Qiaorong told Lan Qing that he planned to betroth her to Lu Ning.
"Mom, why did you go and talk to Elder Lu about this kind of thing without consulting me?"
Lan Qing had some displeasure on his face.
She doesn't like this kind of thing of cutting things off first and telling them later.
"Daughter, can't parents still make the decision on marriage matters?" Peng Qiaorong paused and continued: "Or you hate Elder Lu and are unwilling to marry him."
"Elder Lu is a sincere person, so naturally I won't hate him, but..."
"However, I was disguised as a man by my father and daughter since I was a child. I have been devoted to cultivation and have never thought about any personal relationship between my children. Now you suddenly ask me to consider getting married. My daughter cannot accept it for a while." She looked hesitant and embarrassed; "What's more, you suddenly asked me to consider getting married."
, I am the sect leader of Zixia Sect, if I am asked to dress like a daughter again in front of outsiders, how will my daughter meet people in the future?"
When Lan Qing thought of that scene, her mood almost collapsed.
She is usually the extremely majestic leader of the Zixia Sect.
Even in order not to make people suspicious, she often puts on airs.
How embarrassing would it be for her to change back into women's clothing?
"As expected, they are father and daughter. You and your father have exactly the same idea. But daughter, think about it carefully. Which one is more important, face or the future of our Zixia Sect? Your father has figured it out now, so he went to find Elder Lu.
, can’t you still figure it out?”
"Or do you think that relying on you can revive our Zixia Sect in the future?"
"Mom, I'm very upset right now. Can you please stop forcing me?"
"Daughter, you are a girl after all. If you can become a Taoist couple with Elder Lu, it will not only be a good thing for our Zixia Sect, but also a good thing for your own future cultivation. You should know the relationship better than me."
Lan Qing said no more, frowning, his face changing.
Peng Qiaorong said to himself: "Actually, what I'm most worried about right now is Elder Lu. With his current reputation, I'm afraid he won't look down on you. Alas, your father and I also want to give it a try, so we can fight in private.
Let's talk to Elder Lu and it will be a good thing. If it doesn't happen, only a few of us will know about it, so it won't be too embarrassing."
She continued to speak earnestly: "Daughter, you also know how good-faced your father is. This time he is willing to lower his face and talk to Elder Lu about this matter. You can see your father's determination."
"Zixia Sect is his life's work. He has always blamed himself, feeling that Zixia Sect was destroyed in his hands. For so many years, he not only has to endure the ridicule of others, but also needs to suffer from his own mistakes.
Responsibility, I said this, do you understand?"
After Peng Qiaorong finished speaking, she shook her head and sighed. As Lan Yuanshan's pillow partner, she knew best how he got here all these years.
For the leader of a dignified sect to be in such a situation, he felt deeper pain than anyone else.
Lan Qing naturally knows how difficult it is for her father. She is also rational and emotional at the same time, which makes her extremely conflicted.
Gu Bi
She shook her head and shook off the many thoughts in her head, "Mom, it's still too early to talk about this now. Let's wait for dad to come back and hear his results."
Peng Qiaorong glanced at Lan Qing and knew that Lan Qing was no longer so repulsive, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
Peng Qiaorong poured a cup of tea for Lan Qing and said with a smile: "Come, let's drink tea. We, mother and daughter, haven't had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time."
Lan Qing picked up the cup and took a sip of tea. The aroma suddenly filled her mouth, and even the worries in her mind seemed to disappear.
The two mother and daughter chatted about household matters and trivial matters of the sect.
After a while, Lan Yuanshan came back.
His face was full of spring breeze, and even his steps were faster than usual.
When Peng Qiaorong saw it, he immediately knew that it was stable!
How could she not understand her husband? If he was rejected by Elder Lu, he would not be of this virtue.
"Agreed?" Peng Qiaorong asked softly.
Lan Qing also looked at Lan Yuanshan.
Lan Yuanshan grinned and said: "I agreed, hahahaha."
His expression could no longer be tense, and he laughed so vigorously that it seemed as if all his unhappiness over the years had been laughed away.
A hearty smile.
After he finished laughing, he picked up the cup, poured himself a cup of tea, sat aside and began to taste it slowly.
"I agreed! It's great!" Peng Qiaorong was also a little excited.
She had been worried that Lu Ning would disagree. After all, with Lu Ning's current strength and status, it was their Zixia Sect that had the upper hand.
When Lan Qing saw her parents being so excited, she felt helpless at first, and then she couldn't help but smile. It seemed that she had worked hard for so many years just for this moment.
She thought to herself 'Maybe this is right'.
Seeing Peng Qiaorong and Lan Yuanshan so happy, she really couldn't bear to break their beauty.
She immediately thought of Lu Ning.
Asked: "Dad, what did you and Elder Lu say?"
"I said, I have a daughter and want to betroth her to Elder Lu. That's what I told him."
"Didn't he ask who it was?"
"Hey, it seems I didn't ask."
"That means he doesn't know my identity yet?!"
Lan Qing's eyes widened.
Then for some reason, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
She didn't want any third person besides her parents to know the secret of her daughter's identity.
If Lu Ning knew about it, she also felt that it would be extremely embarrassing when she faced him next time.
"Uh... maybe so."
Peng Qiaorong on the side was also surprised, "This..."
"Dad, tell me what you and Elder Lu said."
"I just said that I have a daughter and want to betroth my daughter to him. Elder Lu hesitated for a long time and then nodded directly in agreement."
"He didn't even ask dad about your daughter's identity?"
"did not ask."
"Then this is too strange."
"yes."
Everyone in the Zixia Sect knows that Lan Yuanshan gave birth to two daughters and a son.
Both daughters are married, and the only son is Lan Qing, who is disguised as a man.
If according to normal people's thinking, there is a third daughter, shouldn't we ask again.
"Could it be that he thought she was an illegitimate daughter, but because of his face, he didn't want to refuse your request, father, so he agreed."
"possible."
"Mom, does dad have an illegitimate daughter?"
"Of course not."
"Then how about I become my father's illegitimate daughter?"
