Chapter 131: Engagement

Jiang Lan began his normal cultivation days. He read many books on array formations and tried them out himself.

There was some improvement, but it was obviously not enough.

He had yet to use the Dao Comprehension Tea. He would use it later.

There were only so many of them. It would be a pity to waste them.

Today, Jiang Lan was cultivating. The improvement of his cultivation was necessary.

Relatively speaking, he was also resting.

The study of array formations took a lot of effort.

Boom!

Jiang Lan, who was still in seclusion, suddenly heard a rumbling sound.

Shocked, he immediately got up and left.

The rumbles earlier were not only loud, but they were also surging with aura.

“A dragon’s might?”“It seems like there’s a big problem with the negotiation.”

Jiang Lan had some guesses.

As expected.

After he walked out of the Netherworld Cave, he saw an extremely distorted light coming from the Kunlun Main Hall.

The light in the hall was almost completely distorted.

Energy fluctuations emanated from it, as though it could shatter the light at any moment.

This was the sixth month since the light had appeared.

Half a year had passed. Had they reached the final stages of the negotiation?

Jiang Lan didn’t know, but he knew that this negotiation had been extremely tough for both sides.

The storm it would cause was unimaginable.

Today, Jiang Lan was sitting in the square in the main hall. He was reading a book and paying attention to the light above.

There was no sound in the morning.In the afternoon, a dragon’s roar was heard and a powerful aura spread out from the Kunlun Main Hall.

Anger. This was Jiang Lan’s first thought.

The dragons were furious.

“You people from Kunlun have gone too far. The Dragon Race will never agree to such a thing. If you insist on doing so, then there’s nothing to say. There’s no need to continue this negotiation. ”

The Dragon Race’s enraged voice erupted from within the hall

At that moment, a dragon shadow appeared, as though it wanted to leave.

The light above the hall could shatter at any moment.

Pa!

A crisp sound rang out, as if something had shattered.

Following that, an extremely authoritative and angry voice sounded.

“Today, as long as your Dragon Race takes a step out of Kunlun, you will no longer be a guest of Kunlun.”

This voice was filled with anger and determination.It was a voice belonging to a female.

Jiang Lan knew who she was.

However, he did not expect this Martial Aunt of his to be so domineering.

Did she mean that as long as the Dragon Race dared to leave, there would no longer be room for negotiation?

Was she going to make an enemy out of the Dragon Race or even start a war?

“Does Kunlun want to start a war with us dragons?”

The dragon’s voice was filled with killing intent.

It was as though he didn’t mind fighting Kunlun.

At this moment, a sword intent soared into the sky.

“If you want to fight, then let’s fight.”

Both parties were ready to fight at any moment.

Jiang Lan looked at all of this. For a moment, he didn’t know whether it was better for the two parties to make peace or start a fight.If they made peace, he would be engaged to Ao Longyu. If the negotiation fell through, he would have to join the war against the Dragon Race.

None of them seemed to benefit him.

If he was engaged, he would be on the cusp of the incoming storm.

If both parties were to wage war, he did not know what would happen in the end as there were too many unforeseen events that could occur during a war.

Since that was so, it was better for him to get engaged.

The rest of Kunlun did not know what was going on at all. However, they knew that the situation right now was pretty serious.

It was as if they could start a war with the dragons at any time.

“What exactly are they discussing?”

“I don’t know, but if it is serious enough to start a war, it means the matter is pretty big.”

“No, I have to find a way to find out what’s going on.”

“Don’t think about it. The personal disciples of the various summits don’t even know about it. It should be something confidential.”

“Apparently it will be announced sometime later.”“This makes me really curious. What’s actually going on?”

…

Jiang Lan looked at the horizon. He didn’t know what others were thinking, but once this change happened, there would definitely be many people paying attention to this matter.

“The Dragon race is still confronting Kunlun. It seems like they really don’t dare to leave Kunlun.”

“Master is right. No one is willing to break the deal.”

“However, Martial Aunt of the Fifth Summit is really domineering.”

No one would dare to say what she had just said, right?

The various Summit Leaders had already agreed not to allow the negotiation to fall through yet this Martial Aunt of his had directly pushed the other party to the edge, to the point they were thinking of actually starting a war.

“Peace is the most important thing. Why don’t we each take a step back and discuss this?”

At this moment, another voice sounded.

It was the First Summit Summit Leader.

At this moment, the tense atmosphere loosened.

Everything returned to normal.

“Looks like it’s settled.”

The dragons did not dare to leave. The people of Kunlun now had the advantage, and the dragons will have no choice but to bow their heads to Kunlun’s conditions as long as they are not overboard.

The demons were at war with the Dragon Race. In other words, if the Dragon Race were to fight with Kunlun at the same time, there was a high chance their entire race would be obliterated if they made any mistake.

They were here to use the Goddess to obtain the assistance of Kunlun to defeat the demons.

They weren’t here to make Kunlun their enemy.

“Is this why Martial Aunt is unafraid of them starting a war?”

Jiang Lan shook his head. He didn’t know the specifics.

However, he knew that plans could not keep up with changes. This was not something an ordinary person would dare to say.

The responsibility she bore was too great.

Jiang Lan lowered his head and continued reading.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the light above Kunlun dimmed, and two dragons left Kunlun.

Therefore, there was still a dragon left in Kunlun.

“Looks like the results are out.”

Jiang Lan knew without thinking that the negotiations had succeeded.

His marriage with Ao Longyu should have been set in stone as well.

Sure enough, Jiang Lan was called over by his master on the same day.

“Master.” Jiang Lan called out.

“It seems like you already know the result,” Mo Zhengdong said to Jiang Lan.

His expression did not change.

Seeing his master like this, he knew that there was no bad news.

No bad news meant nothing had changed.

“Five years later, when Kunlun is ready, it will be the day your engagement with the Goddess will be announced to everyone. The engagement is set in stone. Regardless of whether you become an immortal or not, the Goddess has to marry you. She will not marry anyone else.

However, the wedding will only take place after both of you become immortals. This is a condition proposed by the Dragon Race.

Also, you will only marry Ao Longyu of the Dragon Race. You will never marry anyone else. This is suggested by Kunlun.” Mo Zhengdong explained.

Jiang Lan was silent.

The Dragon Race was betting that he couldn’t become an immortal, and Kunlun was preventing the Dragon Race from replacing him as the candidate for the engagement?

However, there were still five years before the announcement, so it was still alright.

He could still have a relatively peaceful life for the next five years.

After that, Kunlun would be in an uproar.

When the time came, he could be considered a famous figure right?

“The matter of learning array formations will be set three years later. For the next three years, try to learn more knowledge regarding array formations. I will bring you over to the Fifth Summit when the time comes.” Said Mo Zhengdong.

Jiang Lan looked forward to this after hearing it from his master.

He could finally learn array formations from an expert. On top of that, it would be within the next five years.

This way, when he went to learn, he would not attract any attention.

If he could learn the Dragon Slaying Sword in the last two years, that would be perfect.

If that was so, the engagement would not affect him at all.

“Many thanks, Master,” Jiang Lan immediately said.

This was good news.

“Go and prepare,” said Mo Zhengdong.

Mo Zhengdong watched Jiang Lan leave. He didn’t know if Jiang Lan liked this marriage or not.

The Goddess was actually very good in all aspects.

But whether he liked her or not was another matter.

“He’s still young. He should still be the age where he likes those who are pretty. If this is so, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

After all, the appearance of the Goddess could be ranked among the top few in Kunlun.

Probably.
