Mo Zhengdong looked at Jiang Lan.
This disciple of his knew his limits.
He did not need to instruct him on too many things.
Although his cultivation was a little weak, Jiang Lan could differentiate between danger and safety.
And he could have his own ideas.
All he could do was give proper advice and some protection.
Jiang Lan was the most outstanding disciple he had ever seen, and the disciple he was most proud of.
"What's the matter?" Mo Zhengdong asked.
If there was nothing, Jiang Lan normally wouldn't come up.
Unless he had bought wine for him.
Actually, he didn't drink often.
But since Jiang Lan had already bought it, he would drink it.
After all, this was the only way Jiang Lan could think of to show filial respect.
He didn't hate it.
"I have some questions to ask you, Master."
Jiang Lan spoke softly.
Then, he roughly sorted out his thoughts from last night and continued.
"I've been wanting to learn about array formations recently, but it's a little difficult to learn on my own. I want to find someone to teach me. Master, are your attainments in array formations high?"
"I do know more than you," Mo Zhengdong said as he looked at Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan had been learning array formations for a long time.
He could tell just by looking at the array formations in the main hall.
His disciple would add keep adding on array formations when he was free.
However, his attainments were only average.
Of course, he was still much stronger than his peers.
Jiang Lan heaved a sigh of relief. It was good that his master's attainments were higher than his. At least he could learn something from him.
He had the Dao Comprehension Tea, so he should be able to surpass his master very quickly.
However, before he could feel happy, he was splashed with a bucket of cold water.
"But I can't teach you."
"Why?"
"It's best to find someone who is more knowledgeable in this area to teach you. Otherwise, your future in the cultivation of array formations may become limited. Wait for me for a few days. I'll inform the Summit Leader of the Fifth Summit and let her guide you for a few days," Mo Zhengdong said seriously.
Jiang Lan was surprised.
The Summit Leader of the Fifth Summit.
Miao Yue?
There were only two female cultivators who were the Summit Leaders of Kunlun.
One was Third Summit's Zhu Qing, while the other was Fifth Summit's Miao Yue.
Jiang Lan only had a general understanding of this Summit Leader's appearance.
He didn't know much about her character.
"Is the Summit Leader of the Fifth Summit very knowledgeable on array formations?" Jiang Lan asked curiously.
"She's one of the top few in Kunlun. What do you think?" Mo Zhengdong asked softly.
Was she that strong? Jiang Lan was a little surprised. Array formations required a long time to learn. It was very impressive that she was able to have high attainments in the study of array formations and one's cultivation at the same time.
But how many days would it take before the lessons could start?
There must be an exchange of favor involved in this matter.
Jiang Lan didn't refuse. Owing his master favors was different from owning others a favor.
It was fine as long as he did not let his master down.
"Thank you, Master. Are you proficient in sword techniques?" Jiang Lan asked again.
He wanted to be more knowledgeable in the study of array formations to strengthen the Ninth Summit while he wanted to learn more about sword techniques so that he could strengthen himself.
It was mainly so that he could protect himself against the demons and dragons.
Other spell techniques weren't very effective against dragons.
Other than the Power of Nine Bulls, the Dragon Slaying Sword posed the greatest threat to the dragon race.
Facing a dragon, it was best to use a sword.
"Sword technique? That depends on what sword technique it is," Mo Zhengdong replied.
The marriage alliance should have given Jiang Lan even more pressure.
The matter of the Dragon Race was indeed quite overbearing for Jiang Lan.
"Dragon Slaying Sword." Jiang Lan immediately answered.
"Oh?" Mo Zhengdong was taken aback as he tried asking,
"Dragon Slaying Sword? You've learned it? "
"I have," Jiang Lan replied honestly.
There was no need to hide such things.
"When did you learn it?" Mo Zhengdong asked again.
He knew about the Dragon Slaying Sword, but only one person in Kunlun had learned it.
At least on the surface.
He had heard from that person that if one wanted to learn the Dragon Slaying Sword, the first requirement was that one did not fear the Dragon Race and had the intention to kill a dragon.
"These two days," Jiang Lan replied.
Didn't that mean that his disciple had learned the technique after he knew of the engagement? Mo Zhengdong looked at Jiang Lan and raised an eyebrow.
"You wish to… kill your wife?"
Jiang Lan was stunned when he heard this. He looked at his master in astonishment.
"Master, you worry too much," Jiang Lan immediately said.
Although he had thought of using Senior Sister Ao to test his sword, he had never thought of killing her.
As for the other dragons, he had no intention of killing them. After all, killing dragons was a very troublesome matter.
He did not want to cause trouble for himself.
Cultivating was what he needed to do.
However, he had to have the ability to kill dragons.
Mo Zhengdong smiled and said.
"Learning that technique is good too."
As for how Jiang Lan did it, he didn't care.
It was not good to appear weak when facing the dragons.
Once one looked too vulnerable, the dragon would think that one is afraid of him and not because one just wanted to be humble.
"Which one do you want to learn first? The Dragon Slaying Sword or the study of array formations?" Mo Zhengdong asked.
"Array formations." Jiang Lan said.
For now, he should first be able to guard against the others before reinforcing his cultivation with the Dragon Slaying Sword.
"Alright, I'll wait for you to advance to the Essence Soul Realm. If nothing unexpected happens, you will then go to the Fifth Summit to learn about array formations first.
Cultivating the Dragon Slaying Sword is rather easy. However, you will need to make a trip to the Eighth Summit." Mo Zhengdong gave a general explanation.
After thanking his master, Jiang Lan left the Ninth Summit.
Now he had to go to the inn.
Jiang Lan was more surprised when he heard that he would go to the other summits to cultivate.
However, he had to advance to the Essence Soul Realm first.
This was not a big problem.
The only thing he needed to be concerned about was that the other summits were not as safe as the Ninth Summit.
He had to be more vigilant when the time came.
The morning sun shone on him while he was walking, giving him a warm feeling.
Jiang Lan walked towards the sunlight.
The weather was unusually good today.
When he arrived at the inn, Xiao Yu was already there.
At this moment, she was reading a book, like a diligent young girl who was studying early in the morning.
Upon seeing Jiang Lan, Xiao Yu closed her book and quietly placed it behind her.
"I want to ask you some questions."
When Jiang Lan came over, Xiao Yu immediately spoke.
"Senior Sister, please speak." Jiang Lan stopped in front of Xiaoyu.
"How did you learn the Dragon Slaying Sword?" Xiaoyu asked.
"I learned it after reading it once," Jiang Lan replied.
He had indeed only seen it once.
Learning the Dragon Slaying Sword depended on luck. Otherwise, everyone in Kunlun would have known how to execute it.
If so, could the Dragon Race tolerate the existence of Kunlun?
It would be more logical for the two parties to engage in an all-out war if that was the case.
"…"
Xiaoyu had been reading for the whole night. However, she had still not managed to learn it.
Creak!
At this moment, the door to the inn opened.
It was the innkeeper.
"Come in."
Jiang Lan and Xiao Yu walked in.
"Boss, are you not going out today?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.
Jiang Lan also felt that the innkeeper didn't bring anything today. He seemed different from usual.
"I'm done with my affairs. Today will be your last day here." The innkeeper walked to the backyard.
"You guys can clean up the place first."
At this moment, the innkeeper had already left the inn and headed to the backyard.
Jiang Lan looked at the floor and found many wine bottles and bones.
"These people are really casual."
Although Jiang Lan had something to say about the things on the ground, he didn't really care.
He then started cleaning up the place.
Xiao Yu squatted beside Jiang Lan and helped him clean.
"Junior Brother, are you here to gain experience to advance to the Essence Soul Realm?"
"Yes, but opportunities are hard to come by." Jiang Lan packed the wine bottle and got up to pick up the other trash.
If today was the last day, he probably would not have the opportunity. This was what Xiao Yu was asking about.
Xiao Yu didn't say anything, only passing the broom to Jiang Lan.
She encountered many things before she advanced to the Essence Soul Realm.
It was not that easy to advance to the Essence Soul Realm.
"Right. How many years has it been since Junior Brother entered the sect?" Xiao Yu asked.
"A hundred and forty years or so," Jiang Lan replied.
"You are… so young?"
"…"
