That night, the Ye family held a banquet to welcome Lin Ran and also to celebrate the engagement of the two children. If the two children get married in the future, the relationship between the two sides will become even closer.
Lin Ran stayed at the Ye family for a few days and then said goodbye, telling Ye Chong that if he had any problems in the future, he could go to the current head of the Lin family.
After Ye Chong sent Lin Ran away, he couldn't help but sigh. The elder of the Ye family, who was beside Ye Chong and was also the most powerful alchemist in the Ye family, asked in confusion, "Ye Chong, why are you sighing?"
"I was wondering why Patriarch Lin Ran only has one child. If he had one more child, I could marry Qingyi to him." Ye Chong said.
The elder couldn't help but burst into laughter when he heard this. He patted Ye Chongde on the shoulder and said, "My boy, if I remember correctly, Qingyi seemed to be very fond of the young master of the Lin family. Maybe we can let those two girls marry him together!"
"Ah? It's not quite... for sisters to serve one person..." Ye Chong was still a little reluctant to do so. He felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the juicy cabbage he raised and Lin Chong from the Lin family being intimate. Now he has to give two?
"Hahaha, as long as the children like it, your idea is still too conservative. Besides, I have a feeling that the young master of the Lin family will go very far in the future. His father has reached the Lingdan realm, and this child may reach Nirvana, or even higher?" The great elder patted Ye Chongde on the shoulder and said meaningfully.
"Nirvana?" Ye Chong listened to the words of the great elder, shook his head, laughed out loud, and walked towards the Ye family while muttering: "Maybe there really is a chance!"
……
Chapter 4 Arriving at Anling (K)
After Lin Ran visited the Ye family, there was no need for him to stay in Nanshan Pass anymore. He wanted to know how Xiao Chong performed in the academy trials, so he leaped into the blue sky, turned into a stream of light, stirred up a gust of wind, and flew towards the royal capital.
After two days of leisurely travel, Lin Ran finally arrived at Anling, the capital of the Li Dynasty, in the evening!
The imperial capital of a dynasty, take the Li Dynasty as an example, many people may never come here once in their lifetime. Whether in the previous world or the present world, Lin Ran can only go to the royal capital a few times.
When approaching the imperial capital, Lin Ran did not continue flying, but chose to walk and enter through the city gate.
Maybe it’s because it’s the time for the five major academies’ trials, the crowd entering through the city gate is particularly crowded.
The guard team responsible for guarding the city gates is even more elite and has a large number of people. They are divided into several checkpoints to interrogate and check people entering the city.
Lin Ran saw this magnificent city from afar. Its area and its many magnificent areas made Lin Ran want to explore it. After all, it had been a long time since he last came to Anling.
When it was Lin Ran's turn, the soldier in armor saw that Lin Ran was dusty and looked at him sharply. He asked casually, "Where are you from? Where are you from? Where are you going?"
"We are from Nanshan Pass. We have traveled a long way to the royal capital. We have never been to the royal capital in our lives and want to come and see it!" Lin Ran answered with a smile.
Seeing this, the soldier did not try to stop him. He waved his hand and let Lin Ran in.
Lin Ran also walked into this magnificent imperial capital.
I have to say that the people who built this imperial capital were really creative. The design is antique and yet it retains the grandeur of an imperial capital.
Lin Ran found a lively restaurant, ordered some royal capital specialties and drinks, and sat by the window, sometimes looking at the street, sometimes listening to the people in the restaurant bragging to each other, or the storyteller on the stage.
Unexpectedly, what those people were talking about was not the academy trials, but the super large auction held by Jinling Chamber of Commerce after the academy trials. It was said that all kinds of rare treasures would appear in this auction.
After hearing this, Lin Ran took a sip of his drink and couldn't help muttering, "This stinky sister is quite business-minded. She's holding a super-large auction right after the college selection competition is over. This will attract a lot of traffic!"
Now, only some gimmicks have been released. It is said that there is a high-level elixir, or a high-level martial arts technique. Although it is not said what it is, it is said that the level is only high, not low, and it is very likely to be the same level as the heavenly martial arts technique.
Many people were very curious about this, and the threshold for this auction was not too high, so many people with some wealth could participate. Even if they couldn't afford it, they could still witness this grand scene.
Therefore, an auction of this level, suddenly announced at this time, is naturally very eye-catching.
You should know that the academy selection competition held in Anling, the capital of the Li Dynasty, is itself a kind of authorization from the five major academies to the Li Dynasty. The surrounding dynasties do not have the same treatment as the Li Dynasty. People from their side must come here if they want to participate in the academy selection competition.
This also made the royal capital extremely lively and crowded during this period. Even when Lin Ran looked out the window, there were also crowds of people there.
The Li Dynasty dispatched a large number of troops to maintain order in the royal capital, and also set up a special rest area for contestants in the five major academies' selection competition. People from the five major academies were also arranged to live in areas near the imperial palace where every inch of land is valuable. It can be said that the dynasty attached great importance to it.
Lin Ran originally wanted to find someone to get some information about the academy selection competition, but he didn't expect that this time the Jinling Chamber of Commerce actually set up a special column for the selection competition. All the first-hand information, whether it was the contestants or the people from the five major academies, including the information of the five major academies, and which ones were better or worse, were all clearly stated on it.
And it's not too expensive, you can buy it with some silver coins. Not only that, it seems that Jinling Chamber of Commerce has also officially organized some contestants' competitions and taken some bets.
Lin Ran couldn't help but sigh at Li Yuhan's money-making mind. He just mentioned some things casually, but he didn't expect Li Yuhan to remember them all, and put them into practice, and did a good job, which made him very satisfied.
Lin Ran asked the waiter in the store to buy those newspapers and books with columns on the selection competition. After getting them back, he couldn't help but read them carefully and found that Li Yuhan had done these in a very interesting way. It mentioned the daily battle reports, and there were also some portraits of the players and some information about the players.
After looking for his son, Lin Ran was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his son had already made it into the top 100. The same was true for the girl named Ye Qingyi, who also made it into the top 100.
This was a bit unexpected for Lin Ran. This little girl was so frightened and scared in the underground ruins, but she was so fierce in the competition, right?
Because of the headlines in today's newspapers, Lin Ran learned that Ye Wanxi was in the spotlight today because she participated in the academy selection competition, which was similar to the channel of independent enrollment. Her alchemy talent was favored by the five major academies, and they all extended olive branches to her at the same time. However, she was still struggling because she didn't know which academy to choose.
As soon as this news got out, it alarmed the three major families and the royal family in the royal capital, and they all came to win over this future alchemist master.
Lin Ran was very happy to see this. He felt that such a daughter-in-law and Lin Chong were a perfect match, and the more he looked at them, the more he thought about them.
I guess if this news gets back, his future in-laws will definitely be happy.
"I don't know when the competition will start tomorrow. I might as well go and take a look!" Lin Ran thought secretly while eating side dishes and looking at the bustling streets at night.
the next day…
Lin Ran was stopped by the guard who was guarding the order at the entrance of the selection competition. The guard said sternly: "Your admission ticket is fake, you can't enter, move away quickly, you are affecting the people behind you to enter!"
A somewhat arrogant young man came up from behind, with a famous female companion by his side. He glanced at Lin Ran, especially at his dusty and poor appearance, and said sarcastically: "Some people are really amazing, they want to enter the venue with fake tickets!"
"Hey, you kid!"
Lin Ran glared at the arrogant boy. He was also a bit stingy, so he used a little trick to replace the admission ticket in the young man's pocket with his own.
Then, the arrogant boy took out two tickets and handed them to the guard. He was thinking of mocking Lin Ran, but he didn't expect the guard to say, "You have a fake one here too. I've been reminding you not to buy tickets from strangers near the tryouts. It's easy to be cheated. If you want to watch the game, you have to buy tickets from the Jinling Chamber of Commerce. Don't be cheated. But you won't listen. Only one of you can enter. Hurry up and choose one!"
"Ah, how is that possible? I bought this from the official website!"
The man who originally wanted to show off in front of his female companion was now stuck in an awkward situation. He couldn't possibly let the woman in, so he wouldn't go in. Then what was the purpose of him bringing his sister to watch the game?
As a result, because the people behind were protesting against the people in front who were slowing down their entry, they had no choice but to leave in shame.
Lin Ran changed another door and used the ticket he got from the young master to enter the venue smoothly. However, he didn't expect that he was seated at the top of the mountain. Fortunately, he had a pair of sharp eyes and could see the venue. He looked curiously at the person sitting in the most conspicuous and honorable seat, and couldn't help but take out the book to look at the pictures on it.
"This beautiful woman is a teacher sent by Linghua Academy... She is an elder-level teacher with the strength of Lingdan Realm. This is..."
Lin Ran took a look and was really surprised. The teachers leading the teams from the five major academies were all in the Lingdan Realm, but they held different positions. The two most powerful academies, Canglong and Shengqiong, also had teachers in the Lingdan Realm, but those in the Lingdan Realm could only be class heads. Such a comparison could also show the strength of the two academies.
Not only people from the five major academies came, but also the royal family, the three major families, and some dignitaries from the royal capital, all came and sat in the VIP seats. But what surprised Lin Ran even more was that Li Yuhan was also there.
It has been more than a year since I last saw this charming woman. After practicing the Heavenly Fox Skill, Li Yuhan has undergone such changes that even someone like Lin Ran, who is at the top of the mountain, can see and feel Li Yuhan's charming and graceful temperament.
Moreover, the clothes Li Yuhan wears are no longer the same as before. They have a hint of whiteness. For example, she used to like lower necklines to reveal a touch of whiteness, or a slightly higher slit in her skirt.
She is now wearing a set of royal clothes that are luxurious and elegant, tightly wrapped, but it vaguely outlines her graceful figure, especially the seductive temperament she exudes. Her narrow and long beautiful eyes are faintly purple. If you look at them, you will be attracted to them. If your self-control or cultivation is a little worse, you may be deeply attracted to them.
Li Yuhan is now extremely lethal to many men. Her appearance has attracted many men's hearts. Many audience members looked over, and some of those who had female companions were attracted over and were beaten badly.
As soon as Li Yuhan appeared, she greeted the many dignitaries, people from the five major academies, and three major families present. Perhaps it was because of her beauty, but more probably because of Li Yuhan's current identity, the helmsman of Jinling Chamber of Commerce.
Although it is not known why the eldest princess of the Li Dynasty suddenly abdicated and handed over the position to her daughter, it is obvious that this choice was indeed very correct. Jinling Chamber of Commerce carried out drastic reforms within a few months of taking over, and now it is indeed showing initial results.
Li Yuhan sat in the core position, chatting and laughing with the leaders of the five major academies who came to the Li Dynasty. Among them, the young man from Shengqiong Academy, who looked a bit like a cream boy, looked at Li Yuhan with some undisguised naked desire in his eyes, and said with a hypocritical smile on his face: "I wonder which contestant in this selection competition do you think Miss Yuhan is most optimistic about?"
Li Yuhan crossed her legs elegantly, her eyes looking meaningfully at the young master of the Lin family in the contestant seat, who was chatting with the second daughter of the Ye family at this moment.
After a while, Li Yuhan smiled and said, "I don't have any favorites at the moment. I hope Teacher Wang can introduce more."
Teacher Wang: …
This remark really confused Teacher Wang. After he came to the Li Dynasty, he hardly watched any games. Today, because he heard that Li Yuhan was coming to watch the game, he came to watch this group of rookies play.
The teachers from several other academies were also very willing to see the people from Shengqiong Academy suffer a loss, especially those from Canglong Academy. After all, these two academies took turns to sit in the first and second seats.
Mr. Chen from Canglong College is a middle-aged man with a higher position. He is said to be a class teacher. He joked, "Miss Li, Mr. Wang from Shengqiong College didn't come to watch the competition, so how could he have any favorite players? Why don't you ask me?"
"Teacher Chen, you are..."
Being teased by the teacher of Canglong College, Teacher Wang was very angry, and he and Teacher Chen were making sarcastic remarks to each other.
The teachers from other academies were all women. When they saw Li Yuhan, a young and charming woman, coming here today, there was a lot of commotion here. They looked at each other and saw surprise and a bit of unhappiness in each other's eyes. Women are more hostile to such charming women. Perhaps it is the repulsion between the same sex?
Li Yuhan came here today. Her original intention was just to think about it. She was busy with a lot of things. She heard that the young master of the Lin family came to the royal capital and was participating in the academy selection competition.
So today she thought of coming over to take a good look. Since that guy has gone out to gain experience, it should be no problem for her to help look after the child. She did a great job in the beginning. Otherwise, how could the child have such a beautiful sister to date?
Li Yuhan held her chin with one hand and watched the game below lazily, her mind empty as she thought about the man who had always lingered in her mind.
More than a year has passed in the blink of an eye. He said he would come to Wangdu Anling at the beginning, but now the academy selection competition is more than halfway through, and I haven’t seen that guy yet. Men really like to lie!
There were two annoyed flies buzzing nearby. If she didn't have to deal with them, she really wanted to kick each of them.
She herself had not expected that practicing the Heavenly Fox Skill would be so smooth sailing, without taking drugs, and her strength increased very rapidly. The changes that had taken place in her body made her feel a little scary. Her ability to attract men was even more exaggerated than before, which led to the troubles she was experiencing. But at the same time, it did bring her a lot of conveniences. For example, when she hosted an auction, she could make those guys spend a lot of money with just a glance.
"Ah, what a boring match. When will Xiao Chong's match start?" Li Yuhan thought silently in her heart. She couldn't help but look around the audience. Suddenly, she saw a guy with a familiar face on the top of a mountain. Li Yuhan couldn't help but frowned.
"what?"
……
Chapter 62: Discovered by Li Yuhan (Please read on)
"Is that the guy? Came to watch his son's game?"
Li Yuhan frowned and thought for a while, then greeted the people here and hurriedly retreated.
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the VIP seats became cold. The two teachers who had been arguing with each other suddenly had nothing to argue about when they saw Li Yuhan leave. They glanced at each other and then looked away, no one knew what they were thinking.
In addition, the teachers of the academies breathed a sigh of relief. After the VIP seats quieted down, they could concentrate on watching the contestants who performed well in the competition. Then they would go to the houses of the contestants to lobby and try to get them to their own academies.
As for the first and second place, they were not in their consideration. Canglong Academy and Shengqiong Academy would directly take the first two places every year. They would just take the best. They were not like them, who needed to watch the competition and grab people in advance.
Lin Ran was still sitting on the top of the mountain with his legs crossed, looking like a big boss, waiting for his son Xiao Chong's game to begin.
By chance, I looked up at the VIP seats and suddenly found that the seat where Li Yuhan had sat before was no longer occupied.
"Well, where is Li Yuhan? Why did he suddenly stop watching the game? It's impossible that he noticed me and came to find me?" Lin Ran found himself laughing at his own ridiculous thoughts. There were so many people here, and he was sitting at the top of the mountain. How could he be noticed?
But sometimes things are quite unexpected. Even Lin Ran did not expect that half an hour later, two guards from the Jinling Chamber of Commerce came to him and whispered, "Mr. Jiang Ran, our Miss Li invites you. I hope you can come to the appointment!"
"My name is not Jiang Ran, you have found the wrong person!" Although Lin Ran was very surprised, he still said calmly.
But the two guards seemed to have expected this and immediately said, "The lady said that if you are unwilling to accept the invitation, you will have a lot of trouble because of women, and your identity will be exposed."
Lin Ran:......
What else can he say? Is this woman so charming now? Just kill first and ask for permission later, right?
It seems that the other party's growth over the past year is even more exaggerated than he imagined.
"Hey, let's go, lead the way!"
Lin Ran stood up, dusted himself off, and followed the two guards.
The two guards took Lin Ran out of the competition venue through a staff passage, and then took Lin Ran left and right on the busy streets outside, and turned into a deserted and quiet alley. Then, at the other side of the alley, there was a horse-drawn carriage that looked relatively ordinary, and there wasn't even a driver.
The two guards stopped at the entrance of the alley, gestured, and said, "Sir, please, Miss will only let you go through!"
"Ah this..."
Lin Ran scratched his face subconsciously, and his pace towards the carriage became a little slower. His mind was thinking quickly about how to face Li Yuhan now. How did he get discovered?
But just as he came to the side of the carriage, a pair of white little hands accurately grabbed his collar, grabbed Lin Ran, and pulled him directly into the carriage.
The two guards who were on lookout happened to see this scene, their eyes widened, and they all gasped, contributing to the greenhouse effect.
"What do you see?"
"I saw!"
"Is the young lady so fierce? If we arrest her directly, won't the pretty boy be squeezed dry?"
"It's hard to say. With the lady's charm, I feel that pretty boy will lose a lot of weight when he comes out. I wonder if you have heard of the legend about the lady?"
"Miss, is there any legend?"
"That's not right. It's said that the reason why Miss is so beautiful and charming, and her strength improves so quickly, is because she absorbs the essence of men. Didn't you see those..."
Before the guard had finished speaking, a cold voice came from the carriage: "If you two continue to gossip, I will send you to experience the feeling of becoming a mummy."
The two young guards couldn't help but shudder, and quickly stood up straight, looking straight ahead, trying not to become the miserable mummies.
Inside the carriage, Lin Ran sat at the bottom of the carriage, looking up at Li Yuhan, who was sitting elegantly with her legs crossed, and asked curiously, "Did you really suck everyone dry? So fierce?"
"you…"
