Sage Emperor's Palace. Inside Jiang Fan's study.
The door to the study room was tightly closed. The windows were also tightly closed. The entire study room was dusky. Jiang Fan was quietly sitting in front of the study table by himself.
"Woosh!" Jiang Lan appeared in the spacious and empty area in front of the desk.
Jiang Fan raised his head and took a glance at Jiang Lan. Jiang Fan's eyes were slightly dark red. His aura was also somewhat heavy. Jiang Lan frowned. "Big brother, what are you thinking about? How did this happen? "
Jiang Lan also felt that something was wrong with Jiang Fan.
Why would the Jiang Fan who was always confident and at ease become like this? Furthermore, now that Jiang Fan had obtained the betrothal gift, he ought to be flushed with success.
"Second brother, you've come." Jiang Fan said indifferently.
Jiang Lan frowned and said. "Big brother, that Qin Yu's betrothal gift should be that first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, right? He had already obtained two quotas. Furthermore, his betrothal gift was a first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. There should be no doubt that he will win. What are you thinking? "
"Without a doubt?" Jiang Fan sneered. "Second brother, your thinking is too simple."
"Oh? Could it be that Zhou Xian's betrothal gift is even more precious than first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures? "Jiang Lan asked in confusion.
Jiang Fan grew silent.
Jiang Lan and Jiang Fan were blood brothers. Furthermore, they had been blood brothers since the birth of the Divine Realm. The two of them were extremely familiar with one another. Jiang Lan frowned and said. "Big brother, what exactly is Zhou Xian's betrothal gift?"
Jiang Fan was still silent.
"Big brother!" Jiang Lan was a bit angry.
"Don't ask anymore." Jiang Fan rolled his eyelids and coldly shouted.
Jiang Lan frowned. However, he took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. "Big brother, Qin Yu is the new Craftsman God. If you allow him to win, not only will you be able to obtain that first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure, you will also be able to make a Craftsman God your son-in-law. From this, one can imagine that our Utmost Northern Region's Floating Snow City's status will be the highest among the Eight Great Sacred Lands. So why are you hesitating now? "
"Do not bother me. Let me think about it." Jiang Fan's low and deep voice sounded in the study room.
Jiang Lan was furious. If this Jiang Fan were to tell him the reason, then he would be able to feel a bit better. However, at this moment, Jiang Fan refused to tell him the reason.
"Get out!" Jiang Fan suddenly raised his head. He stared at Jiang Lan with a cold gaze.
Jiang Lan forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart. He humphed and then directly teleported away from the Utmost North Sage Emperor's Palace. Jiang Lan did not wish to confront Jiang Fan head on. After all, the final decision of the groom search was still in Jiang Fan's hands.
*****
Inside the Mu Mansion.
Qin Yu had been quietly waiting the entire time. He didn't even bother Jiang Li. Instead, he was quietly waiting by the side of the pond. In merely a short moment, Jiang Lan returned.
"Uncle Lan?" Seeing Jiang Lan's expression, Qin Yu's heart jumped violently.
The situation was not good!
Jiang Lan slowly exhaled a mouthful of air. Only then did his expression gradually return to normal. He looked to Qin Yu and sighed. "Little Yu, the situation is indeed as you had imagined. It's not good."
"What's going on? The Utmost North Sage Emperor is going to choose Zhou Xian?" Qin Yu grew anxious.
"No." Jiang Lan regained his calmness. "I am very familiar with Jiang Fan. If he had already decided to give the chosen candidate spot to Zhou Xian, then he would have already done so. Otherwise, he wouldn't have looked like that. He's obviously still on the prowl. "
"Still on the prowl?" Qin Yu frowned.
"That's right. At this moment, Jiang Fan is also unable to make up his mind. I truly cannot imagine what was written on that Zhou Clan's betrothal gift list that actually caused Jiang Fan to hesitate."
Jiang Lan shook his head and said with a frown. "You've obtained two chosen candidate spots and your betrothal gift is a first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. And now, you're the new Craftsman God! All of this is actually unable to make my big brother decide to choose you. In that case, what exactly was written on Zhou Xian's betrothal gift list? "
Qin Yu also started to frown.
It was not only Jiang Lan who was confused. Qin Yu was also confused.
Qin Yu felt that he already possessed a sufficient amount of backing. There was simply no possibility for him to lose. However, the truth was … Zhou Xian's betrothal gift list had indeed caused Jiang Fan to hesitate.
"No matter what, I cannot lose." Qin Yu's gaze grew sharp.
"Uncle Lan." Qin Yu looked to Jiang Lan. "At this moment, the Utmost North Sage Emperor is still on the prowl. Would I be able to have him support me if I were to increase the stakes?"
Jiang Lan grew silent for a moment.
"Little Yu." Jiang Lan looked to Qin Yu. "Your stakes are already extremely high. First-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures are extremely precious treasures. I reckon that even if you were to increase your treasures, it would not have much of an effect. "
Qin Yu immediately started to frown.
Jiang Lan continued. "However …" Hearing this word, Qin Yu immediately pricked up his ears. It seemed that there was still hope.
"Jiang Lan, as the Clan Chief of the Jiang Clan, the reason why he values first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures is so that his clan can become stronger. Since that's the case … we still have two more methods. "
"What are those two methods?" Qin Yu was unable to think of any methods.
Jiang Lan smiled and said. "The first method is to start from Jiang Fan and Li Er's relationship as father and daughter. Although Jiang Fan wanted Li Er to publicly search for a groom, it cannot be denied. Jiang Fan and Li Er still have feelings for one another. I will bring Li Er over and have Li Er directly tell him … that the person that Li Er likes is you. I will have him help you two. "
"His daughter's happiness ought to be able to affect him." Jiang Lan nodded.
Qin Yu was also overjoyed.
That's right, if he were Jiang Fan, he would indeed have to consider his daughter's wishes.
"The second method." Jiang Lan continued. "Didn't Jiang Fan want the Floating Snow City to become stronger? It's very simple. You can directly tell him that you possess another Soul Tear of Life. "
Qin Yu was startled.
The fact that he possessed Liu Xing's Soul Tear was indeed a secret that very few people knew about.
Jiang Lan continued. "Li Er possesses a Soul Tear of Life. You possess a Soul Tear of Life. Once the two of you dual train and combine your comprehensions, it would be very easy for one of you to become a Godking."
"Furthermore, the two Soul Tears of Life were formed from the peculiar energy within the Godking of Life's body when she died. If the two Soul Tears of Life were to fuse, the energy of the Godking of Life would once again appear. Regardless of who the two Soul Tears of Life were to be given to, it would be very possible for either of them to become the new Godking of Life. "
When Jiang Lan said this, Qin Yu also came to some understanding.
Liu Xing's Soul Tear was composed of two parts. One was the comprehension of the Spatial Laws. The other was the energy of the Godking of Life. The energy of the Godking of Life was extremely peculiar. It was even capable of restoring one's soul.
"If the two of you are to be together, it would be very possible for Li Er to become a Godking. For his own daughter to become a Godking, this ought to be very attractive to Jiang Fan. "Jiang Lan said with a smile.
Qin Yu nodded repeatedly.
That's right, the two methods that Jiang Lan mentioned were both very feasible.
"If we were to use these two methods at the same time, the possibility of success would be even greater." Jiang Lan turned around and looked to the entrance of the courtyard. "Li Er, you've been listening at the entrance for so long. Come in."
"Li Er?" Qin Yu spread out his Spatial Energy. Sure enough … Jiang Li whose eyes were slightly red was standing behind the entrance of the courtyard.
Earlier, when he was chatting with Uncle Lan, Qin Yu had been extremely nervous the entire time. He did not even notice that Jiang Li was outside the courtyard. Of course, this was also related to the fact that Qin Yu had removed his Spatial Energy.
"Big brother Qin Yu, what Uncle Lan said is correct. I will go with Uncle Lan." Jiang Li walked over and said resolutely.
Qin Yu grew silent for a moment. He then nodded. "I'll have to trouble you then." Qin Yu smiled apologetically to Jiang Li. Jiang Li immediately shook her head.
After a short moment, Jiang Lan brought Jiang Li to the Utmost North Sage Emperor's Palace again.
*****
It was still that secluded and dark study room.
"It's been a hundred and two quadrillion years. Are we going to continue like this?" Jiang Fan muttered in a low voice. Suddenly, Jiang Fan raised his head. He saw that Jiang Li and Jiang Lan had both appeared in the center of the study room.
"Second brother, you've come again?" Jiang Fan frowned. When he saw Jiang Li, Jiang Fan took a deep breath. "Li Er, do you have any business with me?"
Jiang Li stared at her Imperial Father. She said resolutely. "Imperial Father, I wish for you to choose big brother Qin Yu."
"You wish?" Jiang Fan frowned.
"That's right." Jiang Li nodded and said. "Actually, big brother Qin Yu and I already knew each other in the Mortal Realm. He only managed to reach the Divine Realm because of me."
"You're saying, you're saying that Qin Yu?" Jiang Fan's eyes were filled with disbelief. "You went to the Mortal Realm close to twenty thousand years ago, right? That Qin Yu, how could his cultivation be this fast?"
"That's right. If you do not believe me, you can ask Uncle Lan. In fact, you can even ask that Zhou Xian." Jiang Li said directly.
Jiang Lan nodded and said. "Big brother, that is indeed the case. Little Yu has been diligently cultivating the entire time. His cultivation speed was that fast and he even became the Craftsman God, it was all for the sake of marrying Li Er. Thus … he was able to give the Gauze Feather Blade to big brother without the slightest hesitation. He could also write that first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure on his betrothal gift. "
Jiang Fan started to believe it.
"No wonder, no wonder you were willing to part with two first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasures." Jiang Fan nodded. He then looked to Jiang Li with a frown. "Li Er, could it be that you think that your cousin Zhou Xian did not treat you well?"
Jiang Li shook her head and said. "I will not marry anyone other than big brother Qin Yu."
Jiang Fan was stunned. He then humphed. "Scoundrel!"
"Big brother." Jiang Lan was also a bit angry. "Big brother, does Li Er not have the right to choose her own marriage? I see that you've also become obsessed today. Exactly what sort of nonsense are you thinking about? "
Jiang Fan raised his head and glared at Jiang Lan.
"What, you want to fight?" Jiang Lan sneered. "Don't forget, you've also given me the Gauze Feather Blade that Qin Yu gave you." With the Gauze Feather Blade, it was indeed impossible for Jiang Fan to defeat Jiang Lan.
Jiang Fan humphed coldly and then said no more.
After all, he already possessed a first-rate Grandmist Spiritual Treasure. If he were to give the Gauze Feather Blade to Jiang Lan, it would also allow the Floating Snow City to become even stronger.
"Jiang Fan, I'll tell you clearly today. That Qin Yu is the owner of the other Soul Tear of Life that A 'Mei left behind after she died. "Jiang Lan coldly stared at Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan was startled.
"What did you say?" Jiang Fan was stunned.
"Could it be that you've forgotten about it this quickly?" Jiang Lan sneered. "Back then, when you all joined hands to kill A 'Mei, one of the two Soul Tears of Life that A' Mei left behind before she died entered Li Er's body. If it wasn't for this reason, how many people would have participated in your groom search?"
Jiang Fan was stunned.
Indeed, practically all of the people that participated in the groom search had participated because of this Soul Tear of Life.
"Those two children are equivalent to my children. Jiang Fan, you must not be too heartless." A cold light flickered through Jiang Lan's eyes. "Furthermore, once these two children get married and dual train, the two Soul Tears of Life would fuse together and easily give birth to a new Godking of Life. Little Yu had also said that he would give that Soul Tear of Life to your daughter! "
"If that's the case, then it's very possible for you to have a daughter that would become the Godking of Life." Jiang Lan continued. "Furthermore, you would also have a son-in-law that would become the Craftsman God."
"With Qin Yu here, it is without a doubt that the Floating Snow City would become the strongest among the Eight Great Sacred Lands. In that case, I wish to ask you, at this point, why are you hesitating? "Jiang Lan stared at Jiang Fan angrily.
Jiang Fan's heavy breathing resounded through the study.
"Second brother, allow me to calm down, okay?" Jiang Fan had admitted defeat.
Jiang Lan heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. At the beginning, Jiang Fan's attitude had also caused Jiang Lan to be very worried. Jiang Fan's behavior meant that Jiang Fan had somewhat supported Zhou Xian.
However, now that he had admitted defeat, it ought to be because his words earlier had affected Jiang Fan.
"Big brother, I hope that you will not make a decision that will disappoint everyone. You ought to know … what does A 'Mei mean to me? What do these two children mean to me? "Jiang Lan decided to pressure Jiang Fan once again.
Jiang Fan slowly nodded. "Second brother, I understand everything. Well then, you all can leave first. I need to calm down by myself."
"Good. In that case, I shall wait for the result that you will announce in a couple days." Jiang Lan said indifferently.
After that, Jiang Lan held Li Er's hand and the two of them disappeared from the study. The study once again returned to its tranquility and duskiness. Only a long sigh could be heard.
"It would appear that I must make a decision."
Jiang Fan flipped his hand. In his hand appeared the betrothal gift list that Zhou Xian had given him. The contents of that list caused Jiang Fan's heart to be unable to calm down.
