Only now did Yang Jian realize that Xiao Lan's mouth was also very nimble and good at talking.
She was rather close to Little Chan 'er. Not long after, she became familiar with Yohime and was pulled into all sorts of intimate conversations by Yohime.
In the time it took Yang Jian to sit down and drink a cup of tea, Xiao Lan called Ao Xinke 'sister-in-law' and 'sister' non-stop, completely ignoring his authority as the head of the family.
He had never heard this fellow call him 'Brother Yang' more than a few times!
Xiao Lan also knew the importance of the matter. Seeing that Yang Jian had rested enough, she said that they were going to the East Sea and asked Yang Jian to put in a good word for Ao Ji.
She seemed to have come to find Yang Jian for this matter.
Ao Xinke naturally had to follow. However, when she heard from Xiao Lan about what Ao Ji had done and the punishment he had received, she said, "Is there anything wrong with this matter?"
When they said that, they were on the cloud path to the East Sea. The few old women followed a thousand feet behind them. They were not flying very fast because of the speed of the old women.
The three of them were traveling side by side. Yang Jian rode a cloud and stood obediently at the side. Xiao Lan and Ao Xinke were holding hands at the side.
Yang Jian was at the side. He could clearly feel the faint sisterhood that Xiao Lan and Ao Xinke had just established instantly shattered.
"Of course it's wrong!" Xiao Lan pulled Ao Xinke's slender arm and asked solemnly, "He has fallen in love with that woman and is willing to bear such punishment for her. Don't you find it very touching? Brother Yang, do you find it touching? "
Yang Jian nodded at the side. "Touching, touching."
Ao Xinke smiled lightly and said, "If Husband says it's touching, then it's touching."
However, she was a Dragon Lady. She was not part of the 'human race', even though she had married into the human race.
Xiao Lan was a little puzzled, "Regardless of Brother Yang, Sister-in-law, do you think this matter is Ao Ji's fault?"
"Of course it's his fault," Ao Xinke said sternly, "The Dragons have existed since the beginning of the Heaven Calamity. There has been an ancestral teaching in the clan that the children of the Dragons should prioritize the survival of the Dragons. For someone like Ao Ji, breaking the Dragon Pearl for his own selfishness, damaging his own cultivation and origin, this is a huge mistake among the Dragons. "
Yang Jian nodded. "Xinke has a point."
Xiao Lan glared at Yang Jian. Yang Jian spread his arms, looking like he was on the side of reason and not on the side of family.
"Then, sister-in-law," Xiao Lan was a little dissatisfied and asked casually, "sister-in-law, marrying brother Yang is also for the sake of the Dragons, not because you have feelings for brother Yang …"
The more she spoke, the more Xiao Lan felt that this question was too sharp. It seemed to be trying to sow discord between the couple.
Indeed, after changing into women's clothes, it's not as wise as wearing men's clothes.
She hurriedly said, "I made a mistake, I made a mistake. Sister-in-law, don't take it to heart. I just feel that about Ao Ji …"
"That's indeed the case." Ao Xinke chuckled and looked at Yang Jian. Yang Jian did not mind and looked at her.
When Xiao Lan raised her head, she felt as if the east wind had slapped a handful of dog food at her, causing her to feel rather confused.
Ao Xinke said gently, "Back then, I, the Dragons, wanted to marry a dragon lady to my husband in order to benefit from his luck. However, my husband took pity on me. How could I refuse?"
Yang Jian also said, "When we first got married, the two of us would get along a little awkwardly. However, as … Yes, as we got to know each other better, we gradually fell in love with each other."
"How could that be …"
Xiao Lan sighed helplessly. "You are an immortal couple that the cultivators of the Three Realms talk about enthusiastically. If these words were to spread, I don't know how many Little Junior Sisters and Eldest Senior Sisters' restless Dao hearts will be destroyed."
"Haha." Yang Jian was immediately amused. Xiao Lan had many characteristics that he found novel.
Compared to him, she was more like a person from the later generations. She had a pure and beautiful yearning for the relationship between a man and a woman. That was extremely rare among the cultivators of the Primordial World.
In the current Primordial World, Dao companions were also particular about "matching each other" and "similar strength". There was no need to mention mortals in the mortal world. Most women could only be reduced to vassals.
Ao Xinke said gently, "Sister, your words are quite funny. I haven't seen my husband smile like this for a long time. If you don't mind, you must come to the residence to visit. After the calamity, you can often come to the Plum Mountain to stay. "
Xiao Lan lowered her head and sighed. "It's always difficult for me to come out. Grandmother always locks me up at home to cultivate. I'm not made for cultivation. It's already not bad if I can live forever. Daira doesn't dare to think about it."
Yang Jian said, "Then you can ask your sister-in-law more. She has been in charge of the Hall of Omniscience of the Dragons for a period of time. Few people in the Three Realms can compare to her in terms of cultivation techniques and theories."
"Husband, I don't dare to say that." Ao Xinke hurriedly explained. Xiao Lan's beautiful eyes were already filled with light. She held Ao Xinke's hand even tighter.
Yang Jian felt that Xiao Lan's personality was quite compatible with his family. It was not bad to find a friend for Ao Xinke to chat with.
However, Yang Jian thought about it again. It seemed that his wife liked to be quiet and did not like to chat with others for too long …
He had made a mistake.
Yang Jian said, "Xinke, send a letter to the Dragon Palace to ask about it first. Let's not visit so rashly. It's like asking for an interrogation."
"Husband is thoughtful. I'll ask about it now."
Ao Xinke took out a jade token and closed her eyes to engrave a sentence on it. She then threw it towards the East Ocean.
Xiao Lan also took a few more looks at Yang Jian and said with a smile, "Brother Yang, compared to when we first met in the Dragon Palace, you've really changed drastically."
Yang Jian, who was at the side, was stunned.
"The first time we met in the Dragon Palace?" Yang Jian looked at Xiao Lan and did not think too much about it. He asked directly, "The first time we met was in the Major Chiliocosm where the spirit energy was exhausted. You brought a few Perfected Immortals and Heaven Immortals to do whatever you want. At that time, I was just a small cultivator."
"Huh?"
Xiao Lan was stunned.
Yang Jian lowered his head and searched everywhere in the Mystic Tortoise Belt. Finally, he took out a small cloth bag and poured out a jade hairpin from it.
The moment the jade hairpin appeared, Xiao Lan felt as though she was struck by lightning. She stared at Yang Jian in shock.
Yang Jian said solemnly, "With this as proof, do you still want to deny it? I didn't throw this jade hairpin away. At that time, I didn't know that you were a woman dressed as a man. My stomach was churning for a long time. "
"Why, why do you have this hairpin!?"
"Not only that. There's also a box with a piece of writing inside." Yang Jian poured out the cloth bag and took out a brocade box.
The previous few times they met were in the Dragon Palace. The occasions were all wrong. Yang Jian did not think too much about it. He just felt that Xiao Lan was an 'old acquaintance' of his.
Today, the past was brought up and he took out this hairpin.
Seeing Xiao Lan's expression, Yang Jian immediately understood something. He shrugged. "Forget it if you've forgotten."
Ao Xinke blinked. She immediately sensed that there was something unusual about this.
Xiao Lan jumped over and took the jade hairpin and the note. Looking at the words written on it, her delicate body trembled slightly. Her eyes were filled with confusion.
"This is a gift for you to protect yourself. Please take care."
"How is this possible? This hairpin is the only treasure that Mother left me. I usually keep it close to me, but I don't know where I lost it. "
Xiao Lan gently held her forehead. Behind the three of them, the few old women were hesitant to speak. They gathered their courage and wanted to come forward.
Ao Xinke glanced at them. The few old women felt as though they had fallen into an ice cave. They did not dare to move.
This dragon lady's strength was already on par with their master, the Old Mother of Lingshan. Not to mention that Yang Jian could now compete with the top mighty figures in the world.
"Strange, there seems to be something in my heart …"
Xiao Lan lowered her head and pondered for a while. Then, she looked up at Yang Jian. A layer of mist appeared in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Yang Jian was confused.
At the side, Ao Xinke pinched her slender fingers and deduced for a while. Then, she placed a hand on Xiao Lan's neck.
After a while, Ao Xinke sent a voice transmission to Yang Jian. "Her mind is clear and her Dao heart is clear. However, there is a mysterious Dao rune in her Dao heart. It seems that a part of her memory has been erased."
"Exalted Immortals …"
An old woman mustered her courage and said softly, "Please don't ask about this. Otherwise, my young mistress will have a headache …"
Yang Jian immediately nodded. However, Xiao Lan suddenly raised her head and scolded, "It's not them who want to ask. It's me who wants to ask. What happened to me! Who erased that memory in my heart? Why can I only vaguely see some shadows? "
"You've eaten the Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed!" Yang Jian suddenly thought of something.
The Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed …
Xiao Lan's body trembled slightly. A few images and scenes flashed through her mind.
On a mountain gate, when hundreds of cultivators gathered, the young man who was still a little childish killed a beautiful female cultivator with a palm …
In an inconspicuous valley cave, the mutated jade lotus in the cave put a lotus seed into its mouth and swallowed it …
After that, her heart was empty. When she came back to her senses, she was strolling on the ancient path of pilgrimage and returning home with her two family servants …
Yang Jian said at the side, "After I ate the Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed, I also forgot most of what I saw. If it's the same for you, then it can be explained."
Ao Xinke asked, "The Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed that you mentioned, does it mean that you can see the lotus seeds of your previous life and next life?"
"That's right. I even planted that lotus seed in front of Master's cave abode."
Ao Xinke calculated carefully and said softly, "According to what I know, the Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed will not erase the memories of the person who consumes it. However, if what that person sees is something that can't be seen, said, or heard, there will be a backlash from the power of the Heavenly Dao."
Can't be seen, can't be said, can't be heard …
Xiao Lan immediately said, "The two family servants who were following me at that time might know something!"
"You'll know when you go back and ask," Yang Jian said with a smile. He looked at the jade hairpin that Xiao Lan was holding tightly and did not mention it.
If she took it back, so be it. It was not a big deal anyway.
The East Ocean was already in sight. A jade token streaked across the East Ocean and flew into Ao Xinke's hand. It was a "reply" from the Dragon King.
With this jade token, he temporarily put the matter of the jade hairpin and the Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed aside. However, Xiao Lan kept frowning and pondering. Yang Jian was also deep in thought.
What Yang Jian did not say was that he vaguely remembered what he saw after consuming the Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed.
The Three-Lifetime Lotus Seed was connected to three lives. The path of the past and the future was difficult to be the same.
Xiao Lan had probably forgotten what kind of feelings the jade hairpin represented …
