Chapter 93 - 93: 93: Ao Yan’s Thoughts
But in reality, Ao Yan was very clear about it.
Her rapid breakthrough was firstly due to Jiang Xiaobai previously ridding her body of its fire toxins.
And then, most importantly, the few pills Jiang Xiaobai had given her to eat.
These pills were what allowed Ao Yan to improve so quickly.
They had even triggered a fair amount of her bloodline power. Had it not been for these, she could not have achieved her present realm without ten days to a half month of intense cultivation.
During her breakthrough, the image of Jiang Xiaobai would appear unnaturally in Ao Yan’s mind.
She couldn’t understand why.
However, when she successfully broke through and stepped out of her room, her heart was filled with longing.
She had to admit that the first person she wanted to see in that moment was Jiang Xiaobai, and she wanted to share this good news with him.
In the crowd, Jiang Xiaobai, who was contemplating how to persuade the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable to lend a hand, had no idea that Ao Yan was looking at him.
After all, he had known early on that Ao Yan would succeed, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.
Therefore, his indifferent demeanor was entirely perceived by Ao Yan.
Ao Yan felt a bit disappointed at that moment.
“Why isn’t he looking at me?”
Ao Yan murmured in her heart, a sense of irritation surged up inexplicably.
“Yan’er, look who’s here!”
At this moment, the voice of Ao Zhenbei pulled Ao Yan back to reality.
Simultaneously, the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable walked up to Ao Yan, her eyes filled with unconcealed pleasure and satisfaction.
“Very good, you’ve only been cultivating for less than two decades, but you have reached the peak of the Dividing the gods phase, you’re indeed the anomaly among anomalies,”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable praised Ao Yan without reservation.
This made Ao Yan a bit embarrassed. Her face flushed, she bowed her head and respectfully replied, “Greetings, Martial Sea Immortal Venerable.”
“Hmm? Still addressing me like this?”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable laughed, “Call me master!”
“Master!”
Ao Yan hurriedly corrected herself, about to kneel down in a gesture of respect, but the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable blocked her.
“Several years ago, I already considered you my disciple. There’s no need for such formalities.
“Now, this magical artifact is my congratulations gift to you on your breakthrough!”
During her speech, a long sword appeared in the hand of the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable.
The long sword radiated an overwhelming aura; a streak of colorful light flowed on it, which was extremely dazzling.
A divine-level magical artifact!
“What, the first gift is a divine-level magical artifact?”
“That’s worthy of the Jade Ling Palace, true depth indeed.”
“This time, our Dragon Valley really has a chance to regain its glory, and even soar to heights we could never reach before!”
Upon seeing the martial artifact in the hands of the Martial Sea Immortal
Venerable, the many strong people in Dragon Valley were all green with envy.
A divine-level artifact was incredibly rare. There were very few in Dragon Valley, accumulated over tens of thousands of years.
The fact that the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable gave a divine-level artifact as a gift showed how highly she regarded Ao Yan.
“This… Master, this is too valuable!” Ao Yan hurriedly said.
“No problem, I have plenty of artifacts like this. You have exceptional talent in swordsmanship, so you will bring out the greatest power of this martial artifact.” The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable said, laughing satisfied.
“Then… I can only accept it gratefully.”
Ao Yan had to keep the artifact, meanwhile instinctively looking towards Jiang Xiaobai, but was surprised to find his face full of disgust.
She had been feeling uneasy, and now, her discomfort was increasing!
Her irritated mood began to change from brewing to expanding.
In fact, Jiang Xiaobai was really disdainful of this divine-grade sword.
He had more exceptional things in his hand, a divine instrument made from the fusion of many divine soldier swords
Its power far surpassed the divine-grade long sword, it was more like the divine-range bow!
So he certainly looked down upon it.
Especially since his thoughts were not centered on Ao Yan, and seeing others praising the divine-grade long sword so much, he just responded unconsciously.
He had no idea that Ao Yan would get angry because of this.
Afterward, most of the people congratulated Ao Yan.
All the strong individuals in the Dragon Valley blushed with joy, their laughter echoed as if they were the ones who had broken through.
Ao Wan was greatly pleased, “A truly auspicious day, bring out the feast, let’s drink to our hearts’ content today!”
“Martial Sea Immortal Venerable, please come to the Dragon Hall.”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable laughed and nodded, taking Ao Yan’s hand and following Ao Wan and the others to the Dragon Hall, whispering something to Ao Yan along the way.
Jiang Xiaobai was also brought along, along with Ao Cheng and Kong Yuhuai.
Today was indeed a great day for Dragon Valley and had to be celebrated grandly; nearly everyone from Dragon Valley was there.
The Dragon Hall was not enough to accommodate everyone, so also banquet tables were set up outside the hall.
In the very center of the Dragon Hall, Ao Yan and the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable were sitting side by side, continuously chatting and laughing.
It could be seen that the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable greatly favored her disciple, Ao Yan.
As for Jiang Xiaobai, well, he naturally did not have the qualification to eat in the Dragon Hall.
Ao Cheng and Kong Yuhuai also didn’t like such banquets, so the three of them sat in a corner outside, eating heartily.
“Brother Jiang, you’ve really played a big part in Princess Ao Yan’s breakthrough to the peak level of the Dividing the gods phase,” Kong Yuhuai said casually while eating.
He returned to his previous gentlemanly demeanor, as there were quite a few people here.
Jiang Xiaobai glanced at him, “What credit do I have? It’s not like I gave her the bloodline. It’s all her own excellent abilities, you know?”
“Exactly, stop spreading nonsense. If you weren’t the Saint Child of Five Lotus Mountain, I would have beaten you up a long time ago,” Ao Cheng said irritably, “Aren’t you just causing trouble for Jiang Xiaobai?”
All of a sudden, Kong Yuhuai was embarrassed and could only propose a toast in apology.
During their meal, the Third Elder, along with LingEr, also came over to their table.
“You three are really something. This whole table, just for you guys; aren’t you afraid of choking?”
The Third Elder maintained his usual grumpy demeanor. As soon as he sat down, he gulped down a cup of wine.
Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes lit up when he saw him.
The Third Elder held a unique position in Dragon Valley but was greatly respected by everyone.
It was possible that the Third Elder knew something about Ao Cangtian!
With this thought, Jiang Xiaobai smiled and went forward, toasting him with a cup of wine.
“What do you want to say?” Third Elder raised an eyebrow.
Based on his understanding of Jiang Xiaobai, if the latter showed this kind of expression, something was definitely up.
Indeed, as soon as Jiang Xiaobai opened his mouth, Third Elder’s face darkened.
“Third Elder, I wanted to ask about Ao Cangtian..”
