Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Chapter 1689

"What? He rejected you?"

Inside a secret hall on Ancestral Spirit Peak, the place was extremely dark, with evil energy constantly lurking around, and piles of white bones scattered all around.

Luo Changsheng sat upright on a lotus platform made of white bones, and upon hearing what his daughter said, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

He frowned deeply, truly unable to understand it.

The loyalty of Ancestral Spirit Peak, all its resources and Daoist scriptures, plus a daughter who possesses the Pure Land of the Other Shore...

With such generous terms offered, no one could possibly refuse.

Why did Li Lan refuse?

"Did he discover something?"

He couldn't help but say.

"No, my daughter's Pure Land has already been formed. Even if the Heavenly Emperor were to be resurrected, he wouldn't be able to detect anything wrong. Even if Li Lan is a Dao Breaker, there's absolutely no way he could—"

Luo Lianyu shook her head, however, she had great confidence in her otherworld.

"It must be because of Shangguan Xiaoxiao."

Luo Lianyu then spoke, her eyes filled with a hint of resentment, and said:

"Ever since Li Lan came to the secret realm, Shangguan Xiaoxiao has gone to Tian Shi Peak, and the two have been inseparable."

"After all, he and Shangguan Xiaoxiao are both descendants of the Heavenly Emperor, and their deep affection is understandable... but he dares not treat people's hearts so coldly!"

She had no feelings for Li Lan; her resentment stemmed entirely from anger.

Li Lan's rejection was nothing short of an insult to her.

"Father, what should we do now?"

She asked a question.

Luo Changsheng spoke coldly, saying, "It's alright. Since he insists on doing so, let him run into a brick wall first."

"I'm going to Taiye Peak."

He already had a plan in mind.

If Li Lan wants to establish himself in the secret realm, the support of Sage Peak alone is not enough.

As long as he and Ren Chaofeng both oppose it and create some difficulties for Li Lan, Li Lan will realize who is really the king and queen now.

Even if Li Lan possesses endless potential and a bright future, it's all just wishful thinking until he realizes it as a realm of power. He needs to face reality.

He immediately got up and soon arrived at Taiye Peak.

"Fellow Daoist Changsheng, what wind blew you here?"

Upon seeing him, Ren Chaofeng smiled slightly.

"Brother Chaofeng, there's no need for further words. Just tell me, has Li Lan already been here?"

Luo Changsheng got straight to the point.

Ren Chaofeng's heart stirred, and he asked, "Why does Fellow Daoist Changsheng ask such a question?"

Luo Changsheng said, "If I'm not mistaken, the conditions Li Lan gave you, the four true disciples and the chief disciple, shouldn't all be able to advance to the Supreme level, right?"

Ren Chaofeng pondered for a moment and then nodded.

Luo Changsheng smiled; he had already anticipated this.

Li Lan had no choice but to do this: giving it all away would discourage the other peak masters, while not giving it all away would provoke opposition from Taiye Peak and Zuling Peak.

Therefore, Li Lan could only compromise and offer a partial settlement as appeasement.

However, he also knew that Ren Chaofeng must be dissatisfied, after all, Zhou Yuqing, the four true disciples, and others were all true geniuses and the fruits of Ren Chaofeng's labor.

Then he smiled slightly and said:

"Nephew Yuqing is invincible in the Xuanhuang Great World. His Azure Dragon Daoist techniques are unparalleled in their strength, his White Tiger attacks are rarely seen in the world, his Vermilion Bird flames can incinerate the Great Dao, and his Black Tortoise is as stable as a mountain..."

"No matter who it is, it is an unacceptable loss to be without the opportunity to reach the highest position."

He patiently guided and analyzed the situation.

Ren Chaofeng felt a chill in his heart. If it were before, he might have been swayed by Luo Changsheng's words.

After all, the financial losses are real.

But now that he has obtained the Azure Dragon Daoist Technique, and Dongfang Heng has the potential to complete the scriptures in the future, why would he be provoked again?

However, he showed no emotion, deliberately revealing a gloomy expression, and asked, "What exactly does Fellow Daoist Changsheng want to say?"

Luo Changsheng sighed and said, "To be honest, fellow Daoist, Li Lan not only reduced your quota, but also imposed restrictions on the geniuses of my peak."

"We are in the same boat. After much thought, Changsheng has come up with a way to break this deadlock."

"As long as we stand together and firmly refuse the conditions offered by Li Lang, what can he do?!"
