Jiang Yuan, Chu Li.
Two figures stood outside the palace. As the door opened, the two of them appeared in front of everyone in the palace.
Similarly, the two of them could also see the people in the palace clearly. Other than the Heavenly Kings outside the Immortal Planet, all the Heavenly Kings of the Kang Clan were here. None of them were absent, which was enough to show how important this meeting was to Jiang Kuo.
Soon, Jiang Yuan's gaze landed on Lu An. Lu An, who was far away, naturally looked at the two of them and met Jiang Yuan's gaze.
This was the third time the two of them had met.
The first time they met was 22 years ago beside the ancient river. At that time, Lu An was just a newborn baby. The second time they met was six and a half years ago during the battle of Purple Lake City. At that time, Lu An had already grown up, but his strength was still worlds apart from Jiang Yuan's. Now that they met for the third time, Jiang Yuan's strength was already below Lu An's.
If there was no third person interfering, Lu An was absolutely confident that he could kill Jiang Yuan within ten moves. This was already the most conservative estimate.
Although Lu An's eyes did not change, they were already filled with killing intent under the cover of the darkness. Jiang Yuan was the person he wanted to kill the most. Even Chu Li was far behind, because the person who had attacked his mother back then was not Chu Li, but Jiang Yuan. Chu Li only wanted to kill his mother and had only proposed a condition. If Jiang Yuan had not agreed, nothing would have happened to his mother.
However, this was in the past. To the current Lu An, his hatred for Jiang Yuan and Chu Li was completely the same. Both of them were people he had to kill regardless of the severity of the situation. Back then, Chu Li had forcefully interfered in the Apothecary Conference. If not for Fu Yu's timely appearance, the seven women would have died. More importantly, Chu Li had actually hit Fu Yu when she was down after she was locked in the Awakening Stage. Just this reason alone was enough for Lu An to kill her!
Lu An's gaze turned to Chu Li. Chu Li was also looking at Lu An. The two of them looked at each other. The moment their gazes met, Lu An could see the hatred in Chu Li's eyes. Her hatred had not disappeared. It was just suppressed and not shown.
Jiang Yuan and Chu Li entered the palace and came to the center. Jiang Yuan bowed to Jiang Kuo and said, "Clan Lord."
Chu Li also bowed. Lu An carefully observed Chu Li's every move. Compared to the Chu Li he had seen before, she had indeed changed greatly. Lu An believed that if he had appeared before her in the past, even if Jiang Kuo was present, Chu Li would have rushed up to kill him.
After they saluted each other, Jiang Kuo raised his hand, and two chairs appeared on either side of him, not on the same side as Lu An. After all, Jiang Kuo was still afraid that Chu Li would do something bad. Although everyone present was at the Heavenly King Stage and could stop her at any time, the longer the distance between them, the weaker the hatred between them would be. It was best for both sides to remain rational.
Jiang Yuan looked at the two chairs in the distance and said, "Let's go sit down."
Chu Li nodded and sat down with Jiang Yuan. Lu An saw everything and felt more and more shocked.
How could this be?
This building was completely made of ice. The cold aura was extremely powerful, and it also attacked Chu Li greatly. Chu Li needed to continuously release her energy to resist the cold aura. However, Chu Li was still a level-eight Heavenly Master. Even standing on the ice field would consume a lot of energy, let alone entering the palace, which would consume even more energy. Moreover, the chairs were made of ice. This was not the same as letting Chu Li sit on them.
However, Chu Li did not sit down directly. Instead, Jiang Yuan placed a special blanket on the chair before letting Chu Li sit down. Jiang Kuo saw this scene and nodded in satisfaction.
Only when they were so loving could they be considered husband and wife. The difference in their relationship before was too great. They did not look like husband and wife at all.
After the two of them sat down, their gazes naturally focused on Lu An. There was no doubt that Jiang Kuo had called the two of them here for Lu An. Jiang Yuan took a deep breath and said to Jiang Kuo, "Father, why did you call me here?"
"It's like this," Jiang Kuo said with a smile. "Didn't you suggest that Lu An come back? It took me a lot of effort to invite him back. However, he still has some concerns. He is worried that he will be ostracized by all of you when he comes back. He wants to know how you persuaded Chu Li to let go of her hatred so that she won't be on tenterhooks when she comes back. Since both of you are here, you can express your attitude in front of everyone. "
Hearing his father's question, Jiang Yuan nodded slightly. He turned to Lu An and said, "Actually, the persuasion process was very long. My wife also slowly changed her mind after a long time. The main reason is that an all-out war has started, and it might last for a long time. The Spirit Race is facing a great enemy, so the original grudges are no longer important. In addition, I begged her bitterly after breaking through to the Heaven Realm, so she completely changed her mind. "
Begged bitterly?
Jiang Yuan's words in front of everyone were really shocking. This could be seen from the expressions of everyone present. Even Jiang Kuo did not know that such a thing had happened. However, as long as Chu Li's personality changed, the process was not important.
As he spoke, Jiang Yuan looked at Chu Li and asked, "Am I right?"
Chu Li looked at Jiang Yuan. The two of them looked at each other closely. Although Jiang Yuan's expression did not change, Chu Li could feel the threat in his eyes and knew what he wanted her to say.
"That's right." Chu Li's voice was very calm, but this calmness was very oppressive, as if she wanted to suppress all her emotions. It was not natural calmness. She looked at Jiang Kuo and said, "I am willing to accept Lu An back to the Kang Clan and will not attack him again."
Jiang Kuo beamed and nodded in satisfaction. He turned to Lu An and said, "What do you think? The two of them have expressed their attitude in front of you, so you feel at ease, right? If you have any concerns, just tell us. As long as you can return to the Kang Clan, everything is negotiable. "
Lu An looked at Jiang Kuo and said, "I didn't say that I would come to the Kang Clan. I only came because of my mother. Now that I have heard so much, I have shown enough sincerity. Is it your turn? "
After Jiang Yuan and Chu Li came to explain, Lu An did not agree, but the people present were not angry. They did not expect Lu An to agree on the spot. It was enough that Lu An had listened to them.
If they did not tell Lu An about Lu Ting, Lu An's patience with the Kang Clan would disappear and turn into greater hatred. They had to tell Lu An something to make Lu An more interested in the Kang Clan.
"Let Jiang Yuan tell you about Lu Ting," Jiang Kuo said. "Let him take you to the place where Lu Ting used to live."
Lu An looked at Jiang Yuan. He knew that Jiang Kuo had deliberately created an opportunity for them to be alone, but Lu An did not care. To him, his mother's matter was more important. Jiang Yuan was insignificant.
"Okay." Lu An stood up and said to Jiang Yuan, "Let's go."
Just like when he first arrived, he did not salute. His attitude was very cold. However, Jiang Kuo did not blame him at first, so he would not blame him now. He turned to look at Jiang Yuan and said, "Take him there."
"Yes, Father," Jiang Yuan said. Then, he looked at Lu An and said, "Please."
Lu An did not say anything and walked straight out of the palace. Jiang Yuan was not angry. He stood up and followed him. Soon, the two of them disappeared from the palace.
After the two of them left, Chu Li did not stay for long. She stood up and said to Jiang Kuo, "I'll leave first."
Jiang Kuo nodded. It was not convenient for Chu Li to say a lot of things here. He was already very satisfied with Chu Li's performance. He said, "Go back and warm up. Don't catch a cold. You've worked hard today."
Hearing Jiang Kuo's words of concern, Chu Li did not react much. She just nodded and turned to leave. After Chu Li disappeared, the palace door closed again. Everyone looked at each other.
From the beginning to the end, they could only use one word to describe it.
The relationship between Jiang Yuan and Chu Li was very strange. Lu An's behavior was also very strange. Their behavior in both aspects was very confusing. They did not know how to judge.
However, the relationship between Jiang Yuan and Chu Li was secondary. Lu An's attitude was the most important thing. It was also the purpose of today's meeting. Jiang Kuo looked around and asked, "What do you think?"
