Chapter 81:

Xiao Qingge knew Yue Jianli.

Placed second on the Heavenly Genius Ranking, she was the youngest Chief Disciple of the Myriad Sword Pavillion.

Although Yue Jianli’s age was similar to hers, she had already reached the Golden Core Realm. She was truly the beloved daughter of Heaven.

She was also an existence that was comparable to Li Ran.

“Why is she here? Could it be because of the secret realm?” Xiao Qingge thought to herself.

While she was looking at Yue Jianli, Yue Jianli was also looking at her.

Her face was clear and beautiful, and she was indeed a beauty.

“It really is her! It’s the mortal who followed Li Ran in the secret realm.”

“No wonder Li Ran has been protecting her. So the two of them are tied in a marriage contract!”

The more Yue Jianli thought about it, the angrier she became. She crushed the teacup in her hand.

Xiao Qingge’s heart skipped a beat.

She seemed to come here to find trouble!

She said, “Chief Yue, may I know why you came to the Xiao family?”

Yue Jianli calmed down and said lightly, “Nothing. I just wanted to meet Miss Xiao.”

“Meet me?” Xiao Qingge was taken aback. “We don’t seem to know each other very well, do we?”

“Miss Xiao is really forgetful.” Yue Jianli sneered. “Isn’t it Li Ran who stole the fruit that allowed you to restore your cultivation?”

Xiao Qingge’s eyes narrowed.

So it was because of this matter. As expected, the person who came was not friendly!

“Heaven, earth, and treasures. Those who have virtue live in them. Although Chief Yue discovered it first, to claim the fruit as yours is a different matter!” Xiao Qingge was prepared to make a move.

The fruit had been eaten. There was no chance of returning it.

Yue Jianli shook her head and said, “Miss Xiao has misunderstood. I have no intention of asking you to repay me.”

Li Ran was very kind to her. Not to mention a fruit, if the other party needed it, she would risk her life.

However, there was an inexplicable urge in her heart to drive her to see Xiao Qingge.

“Then what does Chief Yue mean?” Xiao Qingge was confused.

Yue Jianli did not reply. Instead, she asked, “I heard that you and Li Ran are engaged?”

“That’s right.” Xiao Qingge nodded.

Yue Jianli asked again, “But I remember that Youluo Temple has a rule that forbids disciples from marrying. Why would he get engaged to you?”

Xiao Qingge didn’t know why the other party was concerned about this matter, but she still explained, “The engagement was made by two ancestors. We were still young and at that time, Li Ran hadn’t joined Youluo Temple yet.”

“I see.”

Yue Jianli let out a sigh of relief and nodded. “It’s just an arranged marriage. It’s not Li Ran’s wish.”

“Chief Yue, you seem to be very happy?” Xiao Qingge was confused.

Intuition told her that something was wrong with this woman.

Yue Jianli blushed. “Nothing. I’m just curious… When do you plan to annul the engagement?”

Something was wrong…

Something was wrong!

Xiao Qingge cleared her throat and said, “Even though it’s my parents’ order and a matchmaker’s words, Li Ran and I are in a good relationship. Why would we annul the engagement?”

Yue Jianli raised her eyebrows and said, “As long as Li Ran is in Youluo Temple, he can never get married. Why would Miss Xiao waste her good years?”

Xiao Qingge humphed, “It’s my business to waste my years. Chief Yue, aren’t you being too broad-minded?!”

Now, if she couldn’t tell what’s going on, she would be a fool!

This Yue Jianli definitely liked Li Ran!

“Indeed, I’m the one who said too much.” Yue Jianli did not say anything else. She stood up with the sword in her hand and said, “Goodbye.”

Xiao Qingge looked at her back and her heart was filled with rage. “No matter what, Li Ran and I are on good terms. I beg Chief Yue to respect us!”

“What did you say?” Yue Jianli turned around, her eyes cold.

Their gazes collided in the air and sparks flew everywhere.

—

Li Ran took care of Shen Ning and applied the medicine to her before leaving.

He walked towards the Xiao family.

Xiao Qingge was no longer a disciple of the Supreme Dao Palace, so she couldn’t cultivate the Supreme Dao Palace’s sutra anymore. Her cultivation was at a standstill.

Also, he had obtained a copy of “The Jade Maiden Rakshasa Sutra” from Li Wuqiang.

This cultivation technique was of a very high level. It was enough for him to cultivate until he reached Emperor Realm, so he could give it to Xiao Qingge.

On the way, the crowd suddenly surged around them. Everyone looked very excited.

He could even hear the words “Xiao family”, “Xiao Qingge” and “fight”.

Li Ran’s brows furrowed, “Could it be that in Wuyang City, there is still someone who dares to cause trouble for the Xiao family?”

He couldn’t help speed up.

Just as he arrived near the Xiao family, he saw two people fighting in the open space in front of him.

One of them had long hair fluttering in the wind. She was incomparably beautiful. Of course, it was Xiao Qingge.

As for the other party, she wore a green robe and held a longsword in her hands. Her brows were full of heroic spirit.

Li Ran was stunned.

“Yue Jianli? Why is she here? No, why are they fighting?”

Boom!

The two of them clashed with each other.

Xiao Qingge flew backward, while Yue Jianli remained motionless.

Yue Jianli was very strong. Even if Xiao Qingge had recovered her cultivation, she would not be a match for her.

However, she had always restrained herself, and her sword had not been unsheathed.

“Stop it. You’re no match for me.” Yue Jianli shook her head.

“Hmph, so what? No matter how high your cultivation is, Li Ran wouldn’t want you!” Xiao Qingge said angrily.

“What did you say? Say it again?” Yue Jianli looked sullen.

“I said, you should give up. Li Ran won’t like a violent person like you!” Xiao Qingge shouted.

Cang Lang!

The sword was unsheathed.

The sword qi roiled and pushed the surrounding crowd back several meters.

Yue Jianli’s voice was bone-piercing. “Since you said I was violent, I’ll show you violence!”

The divine light of the long sword blossomed and instantly turned into a huge sword.

Like a dark cloud, it shrouded over Xiao Qingge’s head!

Xiao Qingge’s expression was serious as if she was facing a great enemy.

Her intuition told her that she could not take this strike.

“Stop!” Seeing that something was about to happen, Li Ran appeared between the two of them. “What’s going on? Why are you guys fighting?”

He looked around.

On one side was Xiao Qingge, pouting her lips and looking aggrieved.

On the other side was Yue Jianli. Her face was ashen and cold as frost.

Li Ran gulped. “There must be some misunderstanding…”

Yue Jianli sneered. “Li Ran, you’re just in time! Then you can take this strike in her stead!”

She pressed down with both hands, and the huge sword slashed towards him.

Li Ran stood still and did not dodge.

“Li Ran, be careful!” Xiao Qingge exclaimed.

Seeing that the huge sword was about to strike him, she stopped it and his clothes fluttered.

Yue Jianli said hatefully, “Li Ran, I hate you to death! I never want to see you again!”

Li Ran rubbed his forehead. “What is this?!”
