Chapter 17: Ling Yu's Sneak Attack
One night, Yan Lan spent the night in retreat again. Over the years, he had become accustomed to retreat as a rest.
The next morning, Yan Lan was still in her meditation, and there was a sound of broken footsteps outside the door. Yan Lan heard this, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
At this moment, a girl in pink with a delicate figure was tiptoeing towards the room where Yan Lan was. The girl's hair is like a cloud, and her figure is uneven, it is none other than fifteen-year-old Yan Lingyu.
Yan Lingyu's cultivation has reached the early stage of the Yuan Dan, and his talent is also different. However, compared to Yan Lan's strength in the middle of the Yuan Dan at the age of thirteen, there is still a bit of a gap.
Yan Lingyu tried her best to restrain her breath and moved towards Yan Lan's door step by step.
"Sister Ling Yu, you are really indomitable!" Yan Lan opened her eyes, revealing a thick smile, and then disappeared into the room with a movement.
"Hmph, this pig's head, I guess I fought too hard yesterday, and I'm still asleep, and I've finally been caught by a chance. Yan Ling Yuwan smiled, her jade hand moved lightly, took out the stone pen she was carrying, and stretched it out towards the door.
"Ah......" When Yan Lingyu's hand was about to touch the door panel, suddenly a hand was on her shoulder, and she couldn't help but scream.
"Sister Ling Yu, let's draw a pig's head again!" Yan Lan retracted her right hand, then held the back of her head with both hands, and said with a raised brow.
"You pig's head, when did you run behind me, the genius is bright, you want to scare me to death!" Yan Lingyu pouted and said dissatisfied.
Yan Lan's eyes widened, and he suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and said speechlessly: "The gate of my house has been painted by you with hundreds of pig heads, and there is still such a clean space left, you have to leave a blank space for me to push the door." ”
Yan Lingyu covered her mouth and smiled, pouted her lips and said: "That's not that you are not good at learning, I used to paint pig's heads every once in a while, if you can detect it, how can I have the opportunity to paint so much!"
Yan Lan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Sister Ling Yu, you are two years older than me, and your cultivation is two years earlier than mine. Even if I start cultivating as soon as I come out of my mother's womb, I won't be able to catch up with your cultivation in one step!"
Yan Ling Yudai raised her eyebrows, but then pouted dissatisfiedly, and said with a bitter face: "You are too shocking, right, since you were eight years old, I have never been able to draw a pig's head on your door, no matter how I restrain my breath, I can be detected by you, you are really a perverted cultivation speed." Tell my sister, what realm have you cultivated?"
Yan Lan felt Yan Lingyu's breath coming over, and couldn't help but feel a chill rising from her feet. Yan Lingyu has been eccentric since he was a child, and when he was young, he was teased by her a lot. Even if he later cultivated to surpass her, it was difficult to avoid being pitted.
In addition, in the family, among peers, the realm of cultivation is treated as a matter of privacy. After all, if you know each other well, then you will be like a real person, and there will be no mystery at all. There is not much difference in cultivation between people of the same age, and they deliberately cover up each other, so no one can see whose cultivation realm.
Looking at Yan Lingyu's eyes that seemed to be able to peep into her heart, Yan Lan hurriedly took two steps back and said with a sneer: "Hehe, my main energy is on cultivating the martial arts, Sister Ling Yu mainly cultivates the spiritual skills, if you really fight, I may not be your opponent." ”
"Hmph, count you up!" Yan Lingyu raised her eyebrows and smiled, quite satisfied. Although I don't know if I can beat Yan Lan, his words made her feel a lot more comfortable.
Yan Lan secretly despised Yan Lingyu slightly, and only then did he cough lightly and said, "Sister Ling Yu came so early, she won't just draw a pig's head!"
Yan Lingyu patted Yan Lan's head, who was as tall as her, and pretended to be an old man: "Brother Lan'er's cultivation is not only getting higher and higher, but he is also getting smarter and smarter. Well, I'm not going to do anything else, I'm here to learn from you!"
"What do you mean?" Yan Lan suddenly took half a step back, instinctively on guard, no one could say what kind of prank the harmless Nizi in front of him would play.
"Hey, look at your appearance, what are you nervous about, I won't eat you again. Yan Lingyu rolled her eyes and continued, "Your skill cultivation is better than mine, and my spirit technique cultivation is better than yours, so it's better for me to guide you to cultivate the spirit technique, and you guide me to cultivate the skill technique, so that we can all improve." ”
"Oh?" Yan Lan blinked, carefully examined Yan Lingyu's expression, and was still a little uneasy.
Seeing Yan Lan's expression, Yan Lingyu couldn't help but frown angrily, and raised her voice a few points and said, "Pig head, sister is serious with you!"
Immediately, Yan Lingyu clasped her hands in front of her chest and teased Lao Chengdao: "Although, you and I don't expect to win the first place this year, or even get involved in that king's weapon." However, at least they have to be in the top eight. The top eight can all receive the gift of the family magic weapon, and the family elder personally guides the cultivation, which is very beneficial to cultivation. However, since I was 13 years old, I have been excluded from the top eight for two years in a row, and this time, I have to be in the top eight no matter what. Otherwise, after the age of seventeen, you will not be eligible to participate in the family competition. ”
"Oh. Yan Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and then wondered, "Sister Ling Yu, even you can't get into the top eight, are those senior brothers and sisters so powerful?"
Yan Lingyu glanced at Yan Lan angrily, and said indifferently: "Do you think that in your boys' training group, the one who carries the Xuantie Stone to the end is the strongest?"
"What does this mean?" Yan Lan looked puzzled.
"So, you're still too simple, little brother. Do you know what scheming means, what it means to hide, and what it means to keep a low profile? How do you know that some of the senior brothers who threw down the dark iron stone earlier than you, have really reached the limit?"
Yan Lan was shocked, and suddenly realized: "Indeed, why didn't I consider this problem?"
"Because you love to dazzle!" Yan Lingyu glanced at Yan Lan again.
Yan Lan touched her head embarrassedly and said, "Hehe, I really enjoy the feeling of being noticed......
Yan Lingyu stretched out her jade hand, flicked Yan Lan's forehead, and said, "The annual family competition, that is the best place to enjoy attention." However, every year, there are many people who are like a dazzling star when they usually train, but they end up in disgrace when they officially compete, do you know what I mean?"
"Understood, understood!" For Yan Lingyu, who has always liked to treat himself as a follower, Yan Lan had no choice but to nod his head, otherwise with his simplicity of heart, he would not pay attention, but he was afraid that he would be taken to the gutter by her again.
Touching his nose, Yan Lan was puzzled: "Sister Ling Yu, do you know which senior brothers are stronger?"
Yan Lingyu smiled smugly and continued, "Of course I know. You know Senior Brother Ling Shan, he is sixteen years old, needless to say that he is strong, but I think that with his strength, he will be in the top three at most. ”
"Top three?" Yan Lan's heart was shaken. In his opinion, Yan Lingshan is the strongest person in the thirteen to seventeen-year-old group, and he has always regarded it as the strongest competitor, but he didn't expect that there are stronger people hidden in it, and he was really a little surprised when he heard the news at first glance.
"Hmm. Among the participants in the family competition this time, in addition to Yan Lingshan, the outstanding ones should be seventeen-year-old Yan Lingyi and sixteen-year-old Yan Lingrui; It is conservatively estimated that their strength is in the late Yuan Dan period or peak realm. Yan Lingyu said quite solemnly.
"However, I look at their previous competitions, and their results are not outstanding, and they only enter the top eight every time!" Yan Lan wondered.
Yan Lingyu's eyes moved, and he said with a floating smile: "That's because there is an existence of Yan Lingtian who is one or two years older than them. ”
"Brother Ling Tian!" Yan Lan was stunned, "That's the one, since he was fifteen years old, he has occupied the King's Weapon for three years, and now he is the holder of the King's Weapon!"
"Yes, Yan Lingtian's talent is too terrifying, so with him participating in the competition, Yan Lingyi and Yan Lingrui are one to two years younger than him respectively, so they are naturally not their opponents, so they have to endure and pretend to be low-key, and when Yan Lingtian is past the age to participate in the competition, he will take the king's weapon by surprise and win the king's weapon in one fell swoop!" Yan Lingyu shook his head and said.
"How do you know that?"
"Because we girls love gossip, you finally know the benefits of gossip now!"
"Let's go, let's cultivate!" Yan Lan groaned slightly, then took Yan Lingyu's arm and walked towards the nearest martial arts arena.
Although Yan Lan's cultivation did not need Yan Lingyu's guidance at all, he felt a pressure urging him to hurry up his cultivation. However, he and Yan Lingyu are on good terms, and now she is telling herself these messages from the bottom of her heart, if she can help Yan Lingyu get the top eight, it will also be a good thing.
Looking at Yan Lan, who has always been slow and reasonable, looked at Yan Lan's silhouette with a sneer, and muttered: "This kid is a little weird, is it possible, he still wants to defeat those junior brothers and compete for the king's weapon?"
"Why do you have such a strange idea?" Yan Lingyu subconsciously shook her head. At the age of thirteen, he was able to win the King's Weapon for the first time, which had never happened in the history of the Yan family.
