Chapter 143: Chapter 99: Purchasing Black Crow Flame, Jiang Yan’s Horror_3
In his memory, Jiang Xiaoyue should be like a blank sheet of paper.
Her personality, probably more introverted.
So why is she suddenly asking such a question now?
But, confused as he was,
Luo Yao, as an experienced lover, naturally knew he needed to provide an answer next.
“Of course I like it.”
Luo Yao wore a faint smile, always maintaining his composure.
“Then, can I visit your home?”
Jiang Xiaoyue said, with her head slightly lowered.
“Ah?”
Luo Yao was taken aback once again.
He truly hadn’t expected that the Jiang Xiaoyue beside him could utter such bold words.
What does she mean by ‘Can I visit your home?’
Look at that, how could such words make sense?
What girl, who has just made your acquaintance not long ago, would say such things?
…
In the end, with no other choice,
Luo Yao could only lead Jiang Xiaoyue towards the direction of the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Of course, he dare not take Jiang Xiaoyue to the courtyard with a dozen wives and concubines.
He still hadn’t figured out how to explain this matter to the girl beside him.
“The Luo Family Ancestral Land?”
“Luo Yao, you’re from the Luo Family?”
Outside the Luo Family Ancestral Land, Jiang Xiaoyue looked at the vast family estate before her, her eyes flashing with curiosity.
“What?”
“You’ve heard of my Luo Family?”
Jiang Xiaoyue nodded repeatedly, “Of course, I’ve heard of it. The Luo Family’s name is so renowned in Qingshi Town, how could I not have heard of it?”
…
The two of them continued talking as they walked towards the interior of the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
Hidden in a corner behind them was Jiang Yan.
After hesitating for a moment, he also silently followed.
It seemed he too wanted to enter the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
“This cultivator.”
“This place is the Luo Family Ancestral Land.”
“Unrelated individuals, please do not enter…”
Just as Jiang Yan was about to step into the Luo Family Ancestral Land, an elderly figure with a slightly stooped posture suddenly appeared in front of him.
The old man had white hair and a face full of wrinkles.
However, his body emitted the terrifying aura of someone in the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage.
For a moment, Jiang Yan dared not act rashly.
“Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage?”
“There’s a cultivator of the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage in the Luo Family Ancestral Land?”
Looking at the old fellow before him.
Jiang Yan took a couple of steps back.
After a moment of silence, he spoke softly, “My young lady just entered the Luo Family Ancestral Land with a young man named Luo Yao, so I need to stay close to protect her.”
Jiang Yan seemed to be negotiating, yet also probing the old man in front of him.
“I’ve told you, this is the Luo Family Ancestral Land, and unrelated individuals are not allowed inside.”
As Luo Dong spoke, he straightened up a bit.
Those somewhat cloudy eyes now flashed with coldness.
The already terrifying aura emanating from his body,
now seemed to surge even more crazily towards Jiang Yan’s position.
Jiang Yan, who stood not far away, felt as if his throat was suddenly clutched tightly, making it difficult for him to breathe.
“This person is not an ordinary Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage…”
Jiang Yan took several deep breaths as he stepped back two steps once again.
Only after he gradually calmed the panicky emotions in his heart,
did he raise his head and look towards the path ahead.
At this moment, Luo Yao and Jiang Xiaoyue had already disappeared from his line of sight.
Jiang Yan had considered barging into the Luo Family Ancestral Land to guard by his young mistress’s side.
However, it was only a moment later
that he abandoned such a thought.
Putting other things aside, the mere presence of this elder at the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage was more than he could handle.
Moreover, within the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
it was unknown whether other Viscera Refinement practitioners lurked, or perhaps there were even more terrifyingly powerful elderly figures.
So, after some contemplation,
he ultimately did not force his way into the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
…
As time passed,
around the evening,
Jiang Xiaoyue finally left the Luo Family Ancestral Land, quite satisfied.
“Miss, how did it go?”
“Was there any trouble?”
Outside the Luo Family Ancestral Land, when Jiang Yan saw Jiang Xiaoyue coming out,
he quickly appeared behind her,
and asked with a somewhat anxious expression.
“Uncle Jiang, what could possibly happen to me?”
“You’re being a bit too sensitive…”
“Besides, aren’t you here as well?”
Jiang Xiaoyue gave a glance at Jiang Yan beside her and then proceeded to hop and skip ahead in a very good mood.
“Miss, this Luo Family… is somewhat extraordinary!”
Jiang Yan turned his head and took a silent look at the Luo Family behind him, murmuring softly.
“The Luo Family is extraordinary?”
Jiang Xiaoyue pondered for a moment before saying, “The Luo Family has managed to develop Qingshi Town to this extent in Huai Shui County, and even controls seven small towns—naturally, they’re not an ordinary family…”
“No, I’m not talking about that.”
Jiang Yan shook his head, his expression gradually becoming serious, and he said, “There are Viscera Refinement practitioners inside the Luo Family Ancestral Land.
“Earlier, I had intended to enter the Luo Family Ancestral Land with you, Miss.”
“But unexpectedly, before I even stepped into the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
“an elder at the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage appeared before me, blocking my path.”
“And this elder at the Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage is not just any ordinary practitioner at that stage.”
“In front of him, I was like a chicken with its neck locked.”
“Even breathing was somewhat difficult…”
…
Jiang Yan had thought that after he said all this,
his young mistress would maintain a certain level of cautiousness towards the Luo Family.
Only, to his surprise…
Upon hearing his words, his young mistress beside him not only showed no caution, but she seemed even happier.
“Organ Refinement Realm Intermediate Stage?”
“And not just any ordinary practitioner at that stage?”
“If that’s the case, then there are at least two Viscera Refinement practitioners in the Luo Family Ancestral Land, right?”
“This is good news…”
Jiang Xiaoyue’s eyes sparkled, and she spoke with excitement.
