Wu Shattered Star River

City Lord's Mansion, backyard!

Lan Lin sat peacefully in the pavilion, reading a book while brewing tea, seemingly unaware of the events happening outside Tianluan City. Beside him, the Iron-Eating Beast was curled up at his feet, fast asleep.

Swish, swish, swish!

Two figures walked over quickly, one leaning on a crane-shaped cane, the other wearing a cyan robe, with an excited expression.

As Jiang Han entered the backyard, Lan Lin raised his head and looked at Jiang Han.

A gentle smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes were filled with relief and joy, as if an old man was seeing a long-lost junior.

The moment he saw Lan Lin, Jiang Han's eyes welled up again.

His parents had disappeared eight years ago, and he had been alone and helpless all this way. Lan Lin was like an elder to him, caring for him and loving him, giving him a sense of family.

He walked over quickly, then knelt heavily on both knees, and said with some choked sobs: "Unfilial disciple pays respects to Master."

Lan Lin smiled and stood up, helping Jiang Han up, and said gently: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"

The Iron-Eating Beast was awakened, opened its eyes, and actually crawled over to rub against Jiang Han's leg.

Jiang Han reached out and touched the Iron-Eating Beast, then looked at Lan Lin and said, "Disciple is unfilial. I have caused Master a lot of trouble during this time, and made Master worry… I don't know how to repay Master…"

"Hahaha!"

Lan Lin laughed and said: "You are my only disciple. I have no descendants in this life. I also have an old friendship with your parents. You are like my nephew. Don't say such things in the future."

"Yes!"

Jiang Han nodded. In his heart, Lan Lin was already a family elder.

He was silent for a moment and said: "Master, will this matter have any impact on you? Was it a bit too much?"

Jiang Han's "a bit too much" referred to making Mi Ling and Feng Yin kneel. He was not sure if it would bring bad consequences.

"It's okay!"

Lan Lin smiled and said: "Young Master Qing personally went there. This shows that the Divine Ruins Palace values you very much. I estimate that Young Master Qing will come to you again later."

"You can choose to go to the Divine Ruins Palace. I estimate that they will give you the position of Holy Son. When you break through to the Earth Immortal Realm in the future, you may even be named an Elder."

Jiang Han shook his head without any consideration and said: "I'm not going anywhere. I'll just stay in Tianluan City. This will be my home in the future."

"Hahaha!"

Lan Lin smiled very happily and waved his hand: "You decide for yourself. By the way… show me that wisp of Jiang Li's soul."

Jiang Han quickly took out the Soul Crystal. Lan Lin took it, closed his eyes, sensed it carefully, and nodded slightly: "No problem, this wisp is well preserved and can be restored!"

Lan Lin looked at He Ming and said: "He Ming, go to the Underworld Island yourself. Invite the Underworld King to come over and help repair Jiang Li's soul. Just say that Lan Lin owes him a favor."

"Okay!"

He Ming nodded, turned and left. Jiang Han thanked him again, but Lan Lin waved his hand: "Alright, go see Jiang Li first and have a good rest for a few days. Your identity as Young City Lord will be restored in two months, otherwise it will be too eye-catching."

"Also, go to Sword Demon Mountain to thank Si Wujian later. Go to Dark Dragon Mountain to thank the Tantai family. You don't have to worry about the other big shots."

"Okay!"

Jiang Han remembered one thing and asked: "Master, what is the relationship between Di Changfeng and Feng Yin? I feel like Di Changfeng came for Feng Yin."

"Di Changfeng?"

A teasing smile appeared on the corner of Lan Lin's mouth, and he said: "When Feng Yin was young, she was the Young Palace Mistress of the Qingyi Palace's Charm Palace. Di Changfeng was very infatuated with her. It seems that Feng Yin was also preparing to marry Di Changfeng."

"Later, in order to join the Undying Palace, Di Changfeng abandoned Feng Yin and married the daughter of an Elder of the Undying Palace…"

"I see!"

Jiang Han grinned, bowed and retreated, returning to his courtyard.

Lan Lin looked at Jiang Han leaving, with a smile in his eyes.

After Jiang Han left the backyard, he looked to the north and murmured: "Lord Yan, Brother Hen Shui, your son has grown up. Can you see him?"

…

"Young Master!"

Outside his courtyard, He Xiang was waiting with the Gao Shan and Gao Wan brothers.

Seeing Jiang Han coming over, the three of them were all excited and quickly saluted Jiang Han.

Jiang Han helped the three of them up and said with a smile: "Thank you for taking care of Jiang Li during this time!"

He Xiang bowed and said: "Young Master, you are too kind. This old servant and the others have low combat power and can only do these chores. The Young Master fought alone for hundreds of millions of miles and shook the world. This old servant and the others are honored."

Gao Shan and Gao Wan also looked at Jiang Han with admiration. Gao Wan said: "Now the 100,000 Tianluan troops are proud of the Young Master."

Jiang Han smiled faintly, patted Gao Wan on the shoulder, and entered the courtyard.

The courtyard was very lively. Jiang Lang, Qi Bing, Zuo Yiyi, Xiong Jingjing, and Niu Meng were all there, as well as Ling Yunmeng, Qi Tiandu, and Xiong Yu. A group of people looked at Jiang Han with smiles.

Jiang Lang rolled over like a ball, put his arm around Jiang Han and said: "Brother Han, I almost didn't see you. You don't know how much I paid for you… Wuwuwu."

Jiang Han slapped Jiang Lang on the back of the head and sent him flying: "Why are you acting so disgusting, you big man?"

"Hehe!"

Zuo Yiyi's eyes curved into crescents and said: "Before you were trapped in the Space-Time Abyss, Fatty secretly ran to find you. He was captured halfway and sent to a King-level force to mine. Later, Lord Gu helped find someone to bring him back."

"Uh…"

Jiang Han had never heard of this matter before. He touched his nose, saw the aggrieved Jiang Lang, and smiled: "Okay, I'll help you get revenge later!"

"Hehe!"

Jiang Lang smiled again, grinning and said: "My Brother Han is awesome. There's a pretty young lady in that King-level force. Let her be my concubine later, otherwise I'll destroy their force."

Jiang Han ignored Jiang Lang, cupped his hands at Ling Yunmeng, Qi Tiandu, and Xiong Yu: "Pavilion Master, Elder Qi, Elder Xiong. Are you used to living in the city? Jiang Han sent you here, but didn't have time to take care of you. It's Jiang Han's fault."

Ling Yunmeng smiled slightly, but Qi Tiandu and Xiong Yu were a little afraid to accept Jiang Han's salute.

Jiang Han is now a strong man who can suppress a Dominator-level force, but they are all useless people.

Just as Qi Tiandu and Xiong Yu were about to say something, Ling Yunmeng replied: "Jiang Han, we are living very well in the city. Steward He and Gu Qingtian are taking good care of us. Thank you very much."

"Eh?"

Jiang Han was slightly surprised. Ling Yunmeng actually called Gu Qingtian's name directly?

This was a little abnormal. Could it be that Gu Qingtian and Ling Yunmeng had developed feelings for each other from Yunmeng Pavilion all the way to Tianluan Island?

He didn't ask much, and looked at Zuo Yiyi, Qi Bing, Xiong Jingjing, and Niu Meng, sensing everyone's realm.

He nodded slightly: "Sister Bing has broken through to the Reincarnation Realm, congratulations. Yiyi and Jingjing have also reached the peak of the Mountain and Sea Realm, not bad. Work harder and you can open the Reincarnation soon. Niu Niu's physical body feels comparable to the Celestial Realm, also good!"

Jiang Han praised everyone, but didn't say anything about Jiang Lang. Jiang Lang waited expectantly for a moment and asked: "I'm also good, I'm about to open the Celestial Secret Realm. Why don't you praise me?"

"Waste!"

Jiang Han glanced at Jiang Lang and said: "You reached the second level of the Mountain and Sea Realm at the age of twelve. With such amazing talent, you haven't broken through to the Celestial Realm for so long. How can you have the face to say that?"

"Tell me honestly, are you indulging in pleasure every day? If you don't break through to the Celestial Realm within three months, do you believe I'll send you back to Wolong Mountain?"

"Wolong Mountain… Don't!"

Jiang Lang was speechless, rolled his eyes and said: "You went on a killing spree in Wolong Mountain. If I go back now, a group of old guys will tear me apart."

"Three months, right? No problem, I guarantee to break through to the Celestial Realm within three months and let you see what a genius is."

Jiang Han didn't talk nonsense with Jiang Lang and turned to enter Jiang Li's room.

On the big bed, Jiang Li was sleeping quietly, her pretty face pale, her breath weak, like a sleeping beauty.

Jiang Han walked over, gently brushed Jiang Li's hair, and said softly: "Little Li'er, sleep a little longer. Before long, you will be able to wake up."
