Does Brother Yang not like beauties?
Ao Ji sat in the middle of Yang Jian and the beautiful woman and pondered in his heart.
The fairy beside him had been to the Dragon Palace a few times. Ao Ji knew her name. Although she was not famous in the five continents of the Primordial World, she was still a beauty in the Three Thousand Great Worlds. Her fans were like fish in a river.
Ao Ji smiled awkwardly at the fairy and poured wine for Yang Jian. He began to introduce the dozen or so "elites" at the table.
The woman could not help but look disappointed. It was not that she valued Yang Jian. It was just that she was used to being surrounded by talents. At that moment, she felt a little disappointed.
Ao Ji chose a seat for Yang Jian because he had selfish motives. The table was filled with princes and princesses of the other Three Seas Dragon Palaces. They were the descendants of mighty figures who had always been close to the Dragons. He wanted the Dragons to build a good relationship with Yang Jian.
After introducing three dragon ladies in a row, Yang Jian responded with a smile. His etiquette was considered appropriate.
"This is the Ninth Prince of the South Ocean, Ao Xiao … This is my cousin … This is my cousin …"
"This is the West Ocean's Twelfth Princess. She's also my cousin, Ao Wushuang. She has yet to marry."
"Cousin!" The immature looking Dragon Girl rebuked.
"I was just joking with Brother Yang. Look at you. Why are you blushing?" Ao Ji smiled and teased, but he did not dare to speak too loudly. He looked mischievously at the beautiful dragon lady sitting not far away.
Yang Jian cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Twelfth Princess."
Ao Wushuang followed the actions of the two dragon ladies. She left her seat and bowed to Yang Jian. Yang Jian stood up again and cupped his hands.
Ao Ji introduced nine dragon ladies in a row. They were the disciples with the best aptitude among the younger generation of the Dragons. Otherwise, they would not have the right to enter the main hall.
Following that, Ao Ji introduced Yang Jian to the two disciples of the two human mighty figures at the main banquet. They were two human Golden Immortals.
This man and woman were both peerless figures of their generation, but they had already become dao companions. Both of them had extraordinary bearings, but they did not act too warmly towards Yang Jian.
Finally, it was the lady next to Ao Ji …
At this moment, Yang Jian really wanted to let out a long sigh. Enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. Fortunately, he had cultivated the 72 Transformations. Now that he was sitting in front of the victim, the other party did not recognize him.
This woman was none other than the one Yang Jian had seen in the pool earlier.
Coincidentally, this woman dressed as a man all year round. However, when she was summoned to the Dragon Palace by her grandmother, she couldn't disguise herself, so she chose a small island to change her appearance.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect to find a male fish hiding in the water.
"This is the beloved granddaughter of the patriarch of Spirited Mountain. She is like the apple of his eye. She also has the bloodline of the human race," said Ao Ji as he secretly observed Yang Jian's expression.
The dragon's intuition told him that there must be something fishy between the two of them.
The woman lowered her head and didn't say anything. She was a bit shy, and even though she deliberately revealed this expression, it was still lovely and moving.
Her face was a little round, and she was naturally gentle like a piece of beautiful jade.
The feather clothes she wore were a little conservative, but it could not completely cover up her jade-like skin. It was like snow, and it was flawless …
The accessories for her long hair were not outstanding either. She was gently tied up with a jade hairpin, which made the long hair that should have hung down to her waist look a little more agile …
However, it was that little bit of charm that made her look a little more fairy.
Perhaps she was a celestial maiden, or a person in a divine painting.
Goddess Nuwa's good fortune was biased, and the heavens were beautiful to avoid the root of disaster.
Her bright eyes and white teeth were not worth mentioning. Her eyebrows and cherry lips were unworldly.
It was rare to see such a wonderful figure in the human world. It was probably the arrival of the Moon Fairy.
Her fingers gently twirled around a strand of hair in front of her, and there was a smile on her lips. There was some slight sorrow and resentment in her eyes, which made one feel pity for her …
Although Yang Jian was not infatuated with her, her appearance was imprinted in his heart. He secretly praised her for her outstanding beauty and did not have any strange thoughts.
There were more beautiful female immortals in the Three Realms than the stars in the universe. Second Master could not possibly fall in love with every single one he saw. Then, what was the point of cultivating and saying that he was free and unfettered?
Furthermore, when Little Chan 'er grew up, she might not … Ahem, this comparison was also inferior.
Yang Jian smiled in his heart and looked at the woman with pure admiration. When he heard Ao Ji say her name …
Xiao Lantian.
Yang Jian almost blurted out, "Xiao Lantian?"
The woman's slightly shy and slightly nervous expression instantly froze. Her beautiful eyes stared at Yang Jian. "How do you know this name? We have indeed met before! "
Yang Jian slapped his forehead and wanted to say something, but he laughed a few times first.
No wonder when they met at the entrance of the Dragon Palace previously, he found the two old men who were following outside the carriage so familiar!
500 years ago, in the great world that was about to be exhausted of spirit energy, they had met once during the battle that destroyed the Heaven Quelling Sword Sect. Later on, they met again outside the immortal cave where the Three-Lives Lotus grew!
This …
"Ha." Yang Jian shook his head and could not help but laugh. He looked at Xiao Lan and raised his wine cup. He smiled and said, "We really meet everywhere in life. Let me toast you."
Xiao Lan stared at Yang Jian in bewilderment and frowned. "Why are you toasting me?"
Yang Jian was magnanimous. Other than thinking of Xiao Lan's charm in the water, he did not have any distracting thoughts.
Yang Jian said, "Do you still remember the world that was exhausted of spirit energy 500 years ago?"
Xiao Lan thought for a while and nodded slightly. She said, "I don't go out many times. Of course, I remember that time. Actually, I have some impression of your name, but I can't remember it clearly … It should be because I consumed the Three-Lives Lotus Seed and it disturbed my soul. "
"Oh? I see. "Yang Jian came to a sudden realization. However, he said coolly," It doesn't matter if you forget. Back then, I thought that you were a wonderful person. I didn't expect to meet you today. Are you really not going to drink this cup of wine? "
Wonderful, wonderful person?
Xiao Lan's face immediately turned red. She bit her lower lip and scolded softly, "Are the disciples of the Hollow Jade Temple so frivolous?"
Yang Jian was a little confused. Why was he frivolous?
Could it be that she recognized him as that male fish?
No, if she really did recognize him, she definitely wouldn't be scolding him for being frivolous. She would be scolding him for being rude.
Back then, Young Master Xiao was elegant and had said, "The word 'Heaven' is not something anyone can use." This left a deep impression on Yang Jian.
Unruly, free, and undisguised pride … This was Yang Jian's impression of Young Master Xiao. That was why he had praised him earlier.
However, Yang Jian then realized that even though the 'wonderful person' he was talking about was Young Master Xiao, she had now returned to being a woman.
How would he know if it was wonderful or not?
"This, I'm being rude …" Yang Jian laughed awkwardly. "I thought you were that elegant young master from 500 years ago, but I forgot that you are now a beauty that can cause the downfall of a country. I didn't mean it."
Xiao Lan's expression softened slightly. She snorted. When she heard Yang Jian say that she was a beauty that could cause the downfall of a country, she did not know why she felt a little strange …
She also did not know why she had to explain, but she still explained, "Grandmother did not allow me to walk around freely outside. It was also a bad idea for me to turn into a man."
"Hmm, quite handsome." Yang Jian suddenly felt that the atmosphere at the table was a little strange.
He turned his head and looked. The dragon children were all smiling at each other. The human Dao companions also changed their previous coldness and looked at Yang Jian with a hint of a smile in their eyes.
Most of it was playfulness.
Ao Ji threw his chopsticks away and leaned against the back of the chair. He raised his head and sighed. "Brother Yang, let's change seats."
"Let's not." Yang Jian laughed awkwardly. He knew that he was a little emotional from meeting an old friend just now. "I'll sit here. Young Master Xiao … Oh, Lady Xiao, you don't remember."
Ao Ji held his forehead with one hand. His intuition as a Dragons was actually so accurate …
"Back then, were we very familiar with each other?" Xiao Lan looked at Yang Jian and her voice became softer. She was no longer aggressive.
This was the Dragon Palace after all. Grandmother was sitting at the main banquet. She also had to pay attention to her performance and not embarrass her grandmother.
Yang Jian smiled and said, "We were not close. We only met twice."
"That's good …" Xiao Lan nodded lightly.
Yang Jian was also infuriated. Was he that unbearable? This woman actually dared to despise him so much!
Xiao Lan felt that she had said something wrong and quickly said, "Don't misunderstand. I forgot some of the past because I consumed the Three Lives Lotus Seed. If I don't recognize you now despite being close to you back then, that would be too rude."
"It's fine. Let's just have a drink," Yang Jian said with a smile.
"Friend, please." Xiao Lan waved her hand. Her white fingers were like the treasures of heaven and earth. The human youth beside her could not help but take a few more glances.
However, Yang Jian was not immersed in the beauty before him. His gaze was calm. He raised his wine cup and drank it in one gulp.
Yang Jian said, "There's no need to mention the past. It's fate that we met today. If we meet again in the future, it would be best to have a cup of wine."
Xiao Lan's mentality had also recovered. Her smile did not increase her charm as she said gently, "Friend, you are a disciple of the Hollow Jade Temple. I have heard the rumors of you slaying demons along the way. It is my life's fortune to be able to drink with you today."
Yang Jian's mouth twitched. Xiao Lan had already started to speak in a bureaucratic manner. There was no need for him to pester her.
He only said vaguely, "Please forgive me if I have offended you previously."
"Fellow Daoist, you're too polite," Xiao Lan replied calmly. She thought that Yang Jian was apologizing for calling her a "wonderful person" just now.
Actually, Yang Jian was referring to the lake …
Because of the conversation between Yang Jian and Xiao Lan, the atmosphere of the banquet became much more relaxed. The guests and hosts chatted and laughed in groups of two or three. It was a harmonious atmosphere.
Ao Ji sighed. He really felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. Seeing that Yang Jian and Xiao Lan had stopped talking, he took the initiative to find some topics and told Yang Jian about the interesting things about the Dragons.
However, Xiao Lan sat there alone. The human girl beside her did not talk to her. Occasionally, the dragon girls and dragon sons would toast a cup of immortal wine, but they did not have much interaction.
Most of the time, Xiao Lan was in a daze.
An immortal banquet was not a banquet between mortals. The delicacies were changed round after round. An immortal banquet would last at least a few days.
"Has she been sitting there all alone for the past few days?"
Such a thought appeared in Yang Jian's mind. He coughed lightly and interrupted Ao Ji's words. He took the initiative to ask, "Miss Xiao Lan, have you been to that great world again?"
Xiao Lan, who was sitting upright, was suddenly asked by Yang Jian. She was still a little dazed. She only looked at Yang Jian and blinked.
Ao Ji threw his chopsticks aside. "Brother Yang, I think you should come over and sit!"
Originally, Ao Ji thought that Yang Jian would reject again in a sanctimonious manner. However, who would have thought that Yang Jian would nod and say, "Alright."
