Ten days later.
As usual, Lu An was cultivating in his room. Extreme Yin and Extreme Yang energies were churning in his body, but they didn't interfere with each other and were in perfect harmony. Moreover, he didn't follow the orders of the people in the black fog. Every day, he would spend an hour tempering his body with ice and fire. Although this tempering had no effect on him, it allowed him to maintain his resistance to pain.
After two years of tempering his body with ice and fire, he had almost lost all sense of pain. He could even easily endure the pain of tempering his body with ice and fire.
However, at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the door. Someone shouted from the courtyard, "Lu An, she's here again!"
This voice was Gao Sheng's, causing Lu An to open his eyes. After withdrawing from his cultivation, he went to the door and opened it. He saw that Gao Sheng had just arrived outside.
"Lu An, she's here again today!" Gao Sheng panted as he looked at Lu An. "Do you want to hide? I'll say you're not here!"
Lu An frowned but shook his head. Just as he was about to say something, a figure suddenly leaped over the courtyard wall and stood in the courtyard!
"Lu An, don't you dare run!" Liu Lan looked at Lu An at the door and shouted.
This shout scared Gao Sheng half to death. He trembled as he turned to look at Liu Lan. Then, he quickly smiled apologetically and whispered to Lu An, "You're on your own now."
Then, he nodded and bowed to Liu Lan and hurriedly ran away. With this, only Lu An and Liu Lan were left in the courtyard.
Lu An stood at the door while Liu Lan stood in the courtyard. The two of them just looked at each other. Liu Lan's expression was arrogant and haughty, while Lu An's expression was calm and even indifferent.
This woman had been coming to the Mountain Water Alliance every day since ten days ago.
Because of the cooperation between the two families and the fact that Liu Lan was the daughter of Alliance Master Liu, the people of the Mountain Water Alliance didn't dare to interfere. Moreover, Liu Lan didn't cause trouble anywhere else in the Mountain River Alliance. Every time she came, she would come directly to his courtyard, and the people of the Mountain River Alliance would turn a blind eye to it.
On the third day, Lu An finally couldn't stand the woman's harassment and agreed to fight with her. However, this woman went from bad to worse. She insisted on fighting in the city's martial arts arena, which made Lu An very disgusted. For Lu An, this was a private matter, and he did not want to be so ostentatious.
After Lu An rejected her, this woman did not leave him. Every day, she would report to Lu An on time and stay for the entire day. Lu An naturally ignored her. No matter how noisy she was, he would still focus on cultivating. Two days ago, Liu Lan realized that her noise was useless, so she didn't say much. However, when Lu An was cultivating, she would sit opposite Lu An and cultivate with him.
Lu An really couldn't understand this woman's mind.
Lu An, who was standing at the door, only glanced at Liu Lan. Without any reaction, he closed the door and returned to his bed to continue cultivating. Not even a breath after he sat down, the door opened and Liu Lan walked in.
Liu Lan swaggered to Lu An's side. However, she didn't sit on the bed. Instead, she took out a cushion from her ring and sat cross-legged on the ground.
Lu An had long gotten used to this kind of attitude over the past few days. Even when the Mountain River Alliance sent him food, they would send him two portions. Using Liu Lan's face, his meals became even better.
Since this woman was so willing to waste her time here, Lu An wouldn't interfere. One day, this woman would get sick of it and directly close her eyes, preparing to cultivate.
Liu Lan didn't say anything. Watching Lu An cultivate, she also officially began. However, two hours later, she opened her eyes again. She couldn't hold it in anymore.
She came here every day to do the same thing, which was to cultivate. Lu An cultivated, she also cultivated. She didn't believe that she wasn't as hardworking as a fourteen-year-old boy. However, after so many days, she really broke down. She really couldn't stand the boredom of sitting for an entire day. It made her want to die.
"Ah!!!" Liu Lan suddenly screamed, causing the entire room to shake. Because of this sudden scream, even the meditating Lu An frowned and opened his eyes.
Lu An looked at Liu Lan and frowned. Although he didn't say anything, it was enough to express his dissatisfaction.
However, when Liu Lan saw Lu An's gaze, she was furious. She suddenly stood up and pointed at Lu An and said, "Are you a monster? Aren't you tired of sitting like this every day?"
Lu An's frown deepened. Finally, he said to Liu Lan, "Miss, aren't you tired of coming here every day?"
"I'm here to force you to fight with me. I'm not here to cultivate with you!" Liu Lan couldn't hold it in anymore and completely exploded, "No, no matter what, you have to fight with me. Otherwise, I'll tear down your house!"
However, Lu An didn't react to this threat. He only said softly, "Miss, go ahead."
"You!" Liu Lan pointed at Lu An. She was so angry that her face turned pale. Facing this kind of invulnerable person, she really wanted to go crazy!
"Miss, compared to fighting with me, shouldn't you care more about your reputation?" Lu An looked at the furious Liu Lan and said softly, "These days, miss has been coming here every day. I heard that there are a lot of rumors in the city. Miss, don't you know?"
"I'm innocent. Why should I care about what they think?" Liu Lan snorted and said loudly, "Do you think I'll fall in love with a fourteen-year-old boy?"
"It's true that the innocent knows they're innocent. But as a normal person, you shouldn't do things that make people suspicious." Lu An said softly, "If a person goes to a brothel every day, even if it's just to listen to music, shouldn't he take the initiative to avoid suspicion and blame those who say he's indecent?"
"You!" Liu Lan heard Lu An's analogy and her face changed. She was so angry that she almost released her Heaven's Origin Force. But then she was stunned. Her anger disappeared. She looked at Lu An strangely and asked, "You, are you concerned about me?"
"It's not concern. It's a reminder from an ally." Lu An said calmly, "I have no enmity with you. Naturally, I don't want your reputation to be damaged because of me."
"Haha!" Liu Lan suddenly laughed. Her laughter was hearty and pleasant. She looked at Lu An and said, "It's okay. Since the outside thinks that there's something fishy going on between us, I'll let them think so. I don't mind. You don't mind that I'm your lover in the eyes of others, right? "
"I mind." Lu An looked at Liu Lan and said seriously, "Your reputation can't be ruined. My reputation can't be ruined either."
"You!" Liu Lan was stunned. Then she became angry again. She pointed at Lu An and said, "What, am I not good enough for you?"
"It's not a question of whether you're good enough or not." Lu An said seriously, "Feelings should be mutual. I don't have any feelings for you. I shouldn't let others misunderstand that we have feelings for each other."
Liu Lan heard Lu An's explanation. Not only did she not calm down, she became even angrier. In the entire Black Wolf City, many famous young talents came to propose marriage and were chased away. This little boy actually said that he wasn't interested in her!
"You must be blind!" Liu Lan almost scolded. Although her voice wasn't loud, it contained all her anger.
Hearing Liu Lan's words, Lu An frowned. Because in his opinion, Liu Lan not only insulted him, but also insulted the person he truly loved.
"Miss Liu, take back what you just said." Lu An's attitude suddenly became cold. He looked at Liu Lan calmly and said, "Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Liu Lan was stunned. However, she wasn't frightened at all. Instead, she became happy. Because in her opinion, Lu An was finally going to fight with her!
"You want to fight?" Liu Lan looked at Lu An and said provocatively, "Let's go to the arena now. If you win, I'll apologize to you in front of everyone and prove your innocence!"
Unfortunately, Lu An didn't listen to her. Instead, he directly made his move.
Lu An suddenly rushed forward. The two of them were less than five feet apart. At such a close distance, Liu Lan almost didn't have time to react. In an instant, Lu An closed in on her!
Liu Lan panicked. Just as she was about to raise her hand to block, Lu An directly broke all of her defensive moves. At the same time, his hand mercilessly grabbed her slender neck!
Slap!
Her slender neck was grabbed in his hand. At the same time, a strong force came through. Instantly, a sense of suffocation and death spread throughout Liu Lan's body.
"Apologize." Lu An's eyes were filled with murderous intent as he said coldly.
Liu Lan wanted to continue scolding him. However, she realized that Lu An wasn't joking at all. The terrifying sense of suffocation grew tighter and tighter. She was about to lose her ability to speak.
"I'm sorry! I take back what I just said! "Liu Lan took advantage of the fact that she could still speak and hurriedly shouted with all her might. Her voice was already distorted. However, when she shouted, the pressure on her slender neck suddenly disappeared. She sat on the ground with a pale face and gasped for breath!
Lu An looked coldly at Liu Lan, who was sitting at his feet, and said coldly, "Leave. I don't welcome you."
