"He agreed to come so easily?" Lan Ruo looked at the blue-robed man in front of him, somewhat surprised.
For the Lan Clan to lie in ambush here and wait for the hare to appear before inviting them in person was undoubtedly the last resort since they had no way of contacting the Upper Three Heavens. However, Lan Ruo himself also admitted that there were other ways to ease the tension in this matter.
For example, sending a message, sending a letter secretly by flying sword, or sending an invitation. These were all methods commonly used by people in the martial world or ordinary people.
As for inviting him face-to-face, it was equivalent to directly telling the other party: We know you are here, and we also know who you are. Therefore, you must fly here!
It was more or less like forcing yourself on him and threatening him. Also, it was a show of force.
Lan Ruo knew himself very well. He was just a little uncomfortable about the matter between Chu Yang and Tie Butian, so he wanted to suppress Chu Yang a little.
But when it came to jealousy, it was far from that.
Lan Ruo had always been proud and arrogant. When he made the decision, he knew that such an invitation might leave a bad impression on the other party, which might not be beneficial to his plan. But even though he knew, he still didn't change his mind.
Because he was confident.
The Heavens are sealed, of course we can't go up.
But you, Chu Yang, are the same as us. We are all in the Lower Three Heavens! You can't fly anywhere either!
And on my side, there are several Supreme Martial Artists and Martial Saints here. No matter how powerful you are, I can always suppress you. And in a place like the Lower Three Heavens, if such an expert wants to find someone, there is really nowhere to hide.
So Chu Yang, you can't run away either.
Of course, the Lan Clan's first priority was to befriend the Tribulation Sword Master. Because by befriending the Tribulation Sword Master, the Lan Clan could continue to enjoy ten thousand years of glory.
There were two ways to solve the Lan Clan's crisis. The first was to kill the Tribulation Sword Master. The second was to befriend him.
But was it better to kill or to befriend him?
That was a question that even a fool could answer. If you befriend this person, your clan could enjoy ten thousand years of glory; if you killed him, you could only protect the riches in front of you. Then, was it better to kill or to befriend him?
As long as he wasn't a pig. There was no such question.
Since they knew who the Tribulation Sword Master was, of course they had to befriend him. And they had to be careful not to act rashly.
If the other party really didn't know what to do, it wouldn't be too late to kill him then. But before that, not to mention killing, he had to be careful with his words! Even if there was only the slightest chance of befriending him … he would still have to put in a hundred thousand points of effort!
The greatest power of the Calamity Sword Master was that before his wings were fully developed, he was extremely mysterious. No one knew who he was. Now that he knew …. How to do it? Was it up to him?
Therefore, Lan Ruoxin was also very certain.
Therefore, this impolite invitation was sent out just like that. In his mind, after Chu Yang received such an invitation, Chu Yang would definitely not be able to do anything. He would definitely be fearful, panicked, and furious.
He had thought of all kinds of possibilities, but this was the only one he hadn't thought of. The other party accepted it very calmly. Furthermore, he even specifically instructed that this banquet could not be too shabby …
This made Lan Ruo feel as if he had punched a pile of cotton.
"Alright, let me see what kind of person this Calamity Sword Master is." Lan Ruo put his hands behind his back and stood at the edge of the Heavenly Armament Pavilion, facing the lake. He muttered to himself in a low voice.
Suddenly, he felt a sense of exhilaration as if he had met his match.
…
On the other side, Chu Yang was also thinking: This Duke Lan is obviously threatening me. Haha, just as well. If you didn't come looking for me, I would have gone looking for you.
Anyway, my relationship with the Lan Clan is already so bad that it can't be salvaged. It's rare that there's a guy like you who's secluded in the Lower Three Heavens who doesn't know anything and comes here to be slaughtered. If I don't take this opportunity to slaughter you, how can I live up to the painstaking arrangements made by Lan Meixian and the Lan Clan?
As for threatening me … I don't even care about the Elder Master of the Lan Clan, much less a little bastard like you. And a blind and deaf idiot at that?
…
The sky was already dark!
Lanterns were lit everywhere in Iron Cloud Citadel and people were coming and going. The flow of people was endless. There were very few disturbances. It was obvious that under Tie Butian's rule, Iron Cloud Citadel was very peaceful. The people were kind and simple. Everyone went about their own business and didn't interfere with each other.
The entire Tianyun Restaurant was booked!
Other customers were not allowed to enter!
Everyone was guessing which bigwig was going to give a treat. He actually booked the best restaurant in Iron Cloud Citadel. What kind of earth-shattering figure was he going to invite?
Lan Ruo, dressed in a blue robe, stood in front of the restaurant to welcome the guests. His expression was calm and natural. One look and you could tell that he was free and easy. He was like a dragon or a phoenix.
Along the way, the young ladies and young ladies who passed by kept stealing glances at each other.
What a handsome young man … It's really a pity that he's not a prostitute …
Behind him, two first-grade Supreme Martial Artists stood quietly.
For the Lan Clan to put up such a lineup to welcome the guests was already an exception. It should be known that even if the sons of other Grand Dukes came to the Lan Clan, Lan Ruo would only send someone to lead them in. Lan Ruo would only personally come out to welcome those who were really close to him.
The night was getting darker, but Chu Yang still hadn't arrived.
Lan Ruo's expression didn't change, but he was already dissatisfied. Damn it, this bastard is so arrogant.
After waiting for a while, there were already drunkards staggering out of the other restaurants nearby, but Minister Chu was still nowhere to be seen.
No matter how well-mannered Lan Ruo was, he couldn't keep his cool anymore.
"Are you sure? He said he's coming? "he asked in a low voice.
"That's right. It's just that I don't know why he's not here yet … "Behind him, that Supreme Martial Artist expert replied without batting an eyelid.
"What an … arrogant person!" Lan Ruo's lips moved slightly as he cursed under his breath. When have I ever waited for others like this?
Right at this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from afar!
A man on a horse came from afar like a gust of wind. Even on this busy street, he didn't slow down at all and rushed over like a whirlwind.
Lan Ruo raised his head and saw a tall and big horse. It was snow-white all over, without a single blemish. The golden saddle and golden footrests shone brightly under the light of the lanterns.
On the horse's back, a young man in black was riding. His eyebrows were like swords, his eyes were like bright stars, his nose was straight, and his eyes were bright and spirited. He rode steadily on the horse with his back straight like a mountain, his expression cold and arrogant. Just like that, he pursed his lips and galloped all the way!
The golden saddle shone on the white horse, moving as valiantly as a shooting star!
In the blink of an eye, the white horse reached the Tianyun Building. The rider on the horse pulled on the reins. With a long neigh, the sturdy horse reared up and actually stopped just like that.
Right in front of Lan Ruo! Not more than five feet!
The moment the sturdy horse reared up, the horse's hind legs almost poked Lan Ruo's face. A strange smell assailed his nostrils.
The dust that was stirred up landed on Lan Ruo with a whoosh.
Lan Ruo was furious!
But before he could fly into a rage, the rider on the horse had already dismounted. His movements were extremely nimble as he laughed heartily and walked toward Lan Ruo. "Wahahaha … Is this Duke Lan? Forgive me, forgive me, hahaha … I'm extremely sorry for being late, hahaha … Forgive me, forgive me … "
Lan Ruo frowned and forced a smile. "You must be Duke Lan?"
"Wahahaha … That's me, that's me!" He laughed heartily and said, "How embarrassing, haha … As the saying goes, people have three urges, haha … Before I came here, in order to feast on Brother Lan, I used a small amount of laxatives. I originally wanted to just empty my stomach, but I didn't expect the dosage to be a little too large. After several trips of defecation, I actually couldn't stop it … It's all watery. How embarrassing, how embarrassing, haha … Brother Lan, is the meal ready?"
Lan Ruo's expression was very interesting.
Looking at this glib-tongued Tribulation Sword Master in front of him, he had mixed feelings for a moment. His Adam's apple moved up and down along with his throat; he almost wanted to vomit.
I invited you here for a meal, but before we started eating, you actually explained to me about laxatives and defecation?
Who the f * ck would be able to eat this?
He even felt like throwing up.
"Not late, not late. Hurhur … As long as you can come, I don't mind waiting for three days and three nights!" Lan Ruo smiled lightly and said.
He had originally wanted to say this enthusiastically, but when the words were at the tip of his tongue, that 'enthusiastically' emotion couldn't be aroused no matter what. Besides, if he opened his mouth too wide, he had the urge to vomit immediately. Thus, he could only say it so indifferently.
Chu Yang laughed loudly. "Brother Lan is too polite. If I had known that Brother Lan would actually stand here for so long just to wait for me, I would have held it in no matter what. It's all my fault, all my fault. Talking about defecation before eating, isn't this insulting … Haha, luckily, Brother Lan is magnanimous and doesn't mind. "
As he spoke, he grabbed Lan Ruo's hand and shook it enthusiastically.
At the same time, Chu Yang's gaze was a little strange and heavy. He glanced at Lan Ruo's neck and then returned to normal.
Lan Ruo's expression was a little stiff. Looking at Chu Yang's hand, he thought of how this pair of hands had just wiped his butt countless times … Why was he suddenly grabbing his hand now?
For a moment, a certain smell seemed to assail his nostrils. Lan Ruo's expression was a little forced as he forcefully retracted his hand. "Since Brother Chu is here, please take a seat upstairs."
He felt extremely depressed. How am I supposed to eat this meal? It's already good enough that I don't throw up …
Chu Yang held Lan Ruo's hand tightly and said emotionally, "Brother Lan, you're so righteous! Brother Lan, the moment I saw you, I felt like we were old friends. It seems like I've already known you many years ago. Today, you and I must drink to our hearts' content and not return until we're drunk. Come come come, let's walk arm in arm. "
He actually pulled Lan Ruo along and walked up.
Lan Ruo took a deep breath and suppressed the restlessness in his stomach. Smiling, he said, "Since that's the case, Brother Chu, please!"
"Yes, yes, yes. We're all on the same side, don't stand on ceremony. And these two … are your attendants? Go, feed my horse first. This horse is a good one, you can't neglect it! Why? You don't believe me? Look at this horse's mane, it's just like Duke Lan's hair, shiny and shiny! "
