Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

It wasn't until Lin Bai's retreating figure disappeared on the sea that Lan Yuxin retracted her gaze and disappeared into the islands of the South China Sea Islands.

When Lan Yuxin appeared again, she had come to a lake.

This place is also an island with a huge lake.

And on the edge of the lake, sitting cross-legged, a middle-aged man seemed to remain motionless forever.

"Dad, I'm back."

Lan Yuxin landed on the shore of the lake and shouted softly.

The middle-aged man had a smile on his face, and his eyes were looking at the place where Lin Bai and Lan Yuxin had talked before, and at the direction where Lin Bai had gone: "Lin Bai, you are really an interesting person, aren't you?"

Lan Yuxin smiled slightly and did not answer.

Just now, when Lin Bai came to the South China Sea Islands, Lan Yuxin was talking to Lan Ling on the lake.

But Lan Ling felt that after Lin Bai arrived at the South China Sea Islands, he immediately asked Lan Yuxin to find Lin Bai, so the scene just happened.

Lin Bai found Lan Feng and explained his purpose, and Lan Yuxin happened to walk past them.

All this is not accidental.

Lan Yuxin said: "He really wants to see you, and he even doesn't hesitate to say in public that he is your... son of an old friend!"

Lan Ling took a deep breath and said: "Of course he wants to see me, Xun Zhizang and Su Yanhua, two old guys, tell him that if he wants to know everything, he must come to Dongzhou Academy to find it."

"He came out of the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Territory, went to the Xuantian Territory, and won the qualification to become a master. He was chased by strong men along the way, but he still didn't give up, and ventured all the way to the Immortal City!"

"On the Nine Heavens Yuanzu Mountain, he defeated all the heroes. On the Twelve Flying Dragon Islands, despite your obstruction, he still insists on joining the South Courtyard."

"He worked hard to come to the South Campus and finally got closer to me. Naturally, he wanted to see me and ask me what happened back then!"

Lan Ling said lightly.

He understood Lin Bai's thoughts and determination.

Lan Yuxin asked: "Dad, why don't you see him?"

Lan Ling chuckled and said, "Now is not the time."

"Now is not the time to see him, nor is it the time to tell him the truth about everything!"

Lan Yuxin frowned and asked, "Then when is the time!"

Lan Ling chuckled and said: "Yu Xin, what if I immediately found Lin Bai and told him the truth about that year, the whereabouts of his parents, and the enemies and dangers his parents and he were about to face."

"Do you think he can handle it with his Yangshen realm cultivation?"

"I'm afraid he will be directly destroyed!"

Lan Ling said lightly.

Lan Yuxin said lightly: "Indeed, even a strong man like dad can only hide his power and bide his time on Dongzhou, but Lin Bai does not have dad's strength, let alone dad's mind."

"I'm afraid telling him things now will indeed be counterproductive."

Lan Yuxin nodded slightly and said.

Lan Ling smiled and said: "So, the edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold!"

"The less I see him now, the more he will want to see me!"

"Everything now is an ordeal for him. I hope Brother Lin Duo's son can withstand this ordeal!"

"This not only tempers his mind, but also tempers his Taoist heart!"

"As long as his Taoist heart is strong enough, when we tell him everything, he will have more fighting spirit. Only in this way can Brother Lin Duo have the possibility of being rescued!"

"Now that I tell him the truth, he will be crushed!"

Lan Ling shook his head and said.

Lan Yuxin said calmly: "I told him just now that you will only meet him if he becomes the number one person in Dongzhou Academy!"

"Ah!" Lan Ling heard Lan Yuxin's words and cried out in surprise!

Lan Yuxin smiled awkwardly.

Lan Ling said in horror, "Is he serious?"

Lan Yuxin said in embarrassment and shyness: "You just told me to stop him no matter what I think of. After thinking about it, this is the best way!"

"Let him become the number one person in Dongzhou Academy. Then he can see you!"

Lan Ling sighed helplessly: "Becoming the number one person in Dongzhou Academy is not easy. Even Brother Lin Duo back then probably couldn't do it!"

"Yu Xin, you!"

Lan Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Lan Yuxin smiled awkwardly.

Lan Ling thought for a long time and said: "Well, this can be considered a test for him. If he can really do what even Lin Duo couldn't do back then, then he will be enough to carry this banner!"

Lan Yuxin smiled and said, "Yeah, I think so too."

Lan Ling glared at Lan Yuxin and said, "I haven't been by your side these years. You seem to have gotten used to doing whatever you want. You can tell the story that made Lin Bai the number one person in Dongzhou Academy!"

"Do you know, if he really takes it seriously, how much suffering and danger he will suffer along the way!"

"Don't forget, you and he are engaged!"

"He will be your husband sooner or later!"

Lan Ling said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Lan Yuxin blushed again.

Lan Yuxin said: "Dad, didn't you say that Uncle Su Yanhua's daughter is his fiancée?"

Lan Ling shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This matter is very twists and turns... and it all starts with Lin Bai's mother Li Subai..."

"Speaking of this, hahaha, it's really funny."

Lan Ling said with a hearty laugh.

Lan Yuxin asked curiously: "Dad, tell me."

Lan Ling smiled and said: "Lin Bai's mother, Li Subai, is a strange woman, quick and domineering. When he got married to Lin Duo, he soon found out that he was pregnant!"

"So, one day, she found a few of us, and with her domineering personality, she forced us to make a marriage contract..."

"If the child she gives birth to is a woman, then we will become sisters who are close friends in life and death, just like us and Brother Lin Duo."

"If the heir she gives birth to is a man, he will make a marriage contract with the female descendants of us..."

"That's the way it is."

Lan Ling spread his hands and said helplessly.

Lan Yuxin looked at Lan Ling in horror and said, "Dad, you just sold me out like this?"

Lan Ling looked at Lan Yuxin with wide eyes, and also exclaimed: "Yuxin, you don't know how domineering Li Subai was back then. Her sword was standing on my neck, and she would chop me down if I didn't sign the engagement contract!"

Lan Yuxin looked at Lan Ling innocently.

Lan Ling immediately smiled and said: "Originally, it was just after Li Subai became pregnant. We thought it was just a joke and we didn't take it seriously."

"But because so many things happened later..."

"Kunxu was destroyed, Li Subai was captured, and brother Lin Duo kept his name anonymous to protect Lin Bai... We brothers, we are dead, injured, and hidden... never to see the light of day!"

"And we take this engagement seriously!"

Lan Ling said lightly.

"Yu Xin, I hope you will remember that this is what our Lan family owes to Lin Bai and Lin Duo."

Lan Ling said to Lan Yuxin earnestly.

Lan Yuxin nodded lightly and said, "I know, dad once said that without Uncle Lin Duo, there would be no Lan family today!"

Lan Ling smiled and said, "It's best if you understand."
