Chapter 266 Jiang Ningshuang: Where are you and Ling Jiaoyue at?
Chapter 266 Jiang Ningshuang: How far have you and Ling Jiaoyue come?
Lu Zhan pretended to be stunned for a moment and looked back.
On the wide road about fifty feet away from the Demon Suppression Bureau, a red building covered with snow and green pines are set off. A figure in red is like rouge, turning into a gorgeous color in the snow. The figure is getting closer and closer, and the outline of the woman is becoming clearer and clearer.
The girl's black hair was like a pile of clouds, her facial features were as delicate as lotus, her oval face was white and moist, her bright red dress outlined her undulating lines, her bright red pomegranate skirt fluttered in the wind, she was wearing a red fox cloak, such a bright color did not look vulgar, but instead made her look even more charming.
"Jiang Jiang, why are you here?" Lu Zhan was very surprised.
Yuan Kong rolled his eyes behind his back and envied Lu Zhan's good acting skills. He had clearly noticed Jiang Ningshuang's movements just now, but he pretended to say good things about her, and now he was pretending to be surprised.
Jiang Ningshuang didn't say anything, but just walked closer and closer. Her fiery red shirt looked even more charming against the backdrop of the heavy snow.
After not seeing each other for several months, Lu Zhan looked at Jiang Jiang's ups and downs, and his thoughts were instantly brought back to the past.
Just looking at Jiang Jiang's cold little face, Lu Zhan suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Yuan Kong also sensed the danger and immediately made the most instinctive decision: "You two can chat slowly. I am staying at the Ruixue Inn now. If you have anything, just come to me... I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
Yuan Kong walked very quickly. He had always been at odds with the women in Xiuyinfang, and Jiang Ningshuang had a bad temper and spoke very rudely.
Yuan Kong felt that he was a well-educated person and didn't bother to argue with a hot-tempered woman like Jiang Ningshuang.
Of course... Mainly because he has a keen sense of danger. Yuan Kong always felt that something was wrong with Jiang Ningshuang today. Her face was so cold, just like Fairy Ling. Could this be the expression Jiang Ningshuang would have...
Yuan Kong couldn't help but think of the rumors about Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue, and also thought of the fact that Jiang Ningshuang and Ling Jiaoyue had always been at odds. Jiang Ningshuang looked like she would go all out.
If I stay here... I'll probably become cannon fodder.
Thirty-six strategies, taking action is the best strategy!
Fellow Daoist Lu, you just wish yourself good luck… Before leaving, Yuan Kong winked at Lu Zhan, hoping that Lu Zhan would take care of himself.
"You stinky baldy, why are you making faces?!" Jiang Ningshuang shouted loudly. She hated the baldy from the Zen Sect the most. She didn't expect to meet him when she just arrived in Bian Jing.
Yuan Kong staggered in the air and ran faster. He said, the girls in Xiuyinfang have no manners.
Seeing Yuan Kong leave, Jiang Ningshuang glared at Lu Zhan fiercely with her beautiful eyes and said sarcastically, "I haven't seen you for a few months. Lord Lu is very busy. I didn't expect that he still remembered an old friend like me. It's not easy."
Lu Zhan immediately became alert. Jiang Jiang had always been charming and cute in front of him, and had never been so weird before. Her current look could only mean one thing.
——Jiang Jiang knew about his relationship with Ling Jiaoyue!
The sour taste in these words was so strong that it filled the entire city of Bianjing.
As a mature sea king, Lu Zhan felt that he cared deeply about every fish, and was truly emotional and at ease. But now, looking at Jiang Jiang's sour look, he did feel a little guilty.
Although due to the times, women in the Great Zhou Dynasty were slightly more accepting of having three wives and four concubines, Jiang Jiang had told him about this clearly when he left.
But this doesn't mean that Jiang Jiang isn't jealous, nor does it mean that she can accept Ling Jiaoyue.
Thinking about the time he spent with Ling Jiaoyue, and looking at Jiang Jiang in front of him with red eyes and anger, Lu Zhan felt very confused. He walked over to her and smoothed down her hair that was messed up by the wind, and whispered, "Let's go home first."
Some things are not convenient to discuss outside, especially in front of the Demon Suppression Bureau.
It is said that Xiao Chu is playing Seven Stars in a Row with the Chief Master in the Demon Suppression Division today. If Xiao Chu comes out at this time, the situation will be even worse.
Jiang Ningshuang understood his concerns, so she turned around with him, but she didn't walk side by side with him. She just followed behind him and said, "Let me go to your house. Ling Jiaoyue won't be angry if she knows about this, right?"
It turned out to be because of Ling Jiaoyue’s matter.
Lu Zhan felt very angry!
Although he knew when he was practicing dual cultivation with Yueyue that he would face this situation sooner or later, when this situation really came, he still had a fucked-up feeling that "retribution" had come.
If this happened in a novel, he would say "No, you came at the right time."
Children only make choices, adults want them all.
Unfortunately, this is reality, not fiction.
But think about it, although the rumors about him and Ling Jiaoyue were widely circulated, they were mostly groundless and there was no solid evidence.
Very few people knew about his dual cultivation with Ling Jiaoyue.
Lu Zhan stopped and asked: "What did you hear?"
“Ah…” Jiang Ningshuang was following behind him. Lu Zhan suddenly stopped, causing her to bump into his back. She covered her nose and raised her face, saying angrily, “It doesn’t matter what I heard. What matters is what happened.”
Eh, after not seeing you for a few months, Jiang Jiang has become smarter... Lu Zhan said, "This is a long story."
Seeing that he was speaking vaguely, Jiang Ningshuang could not help but take two quick steps, and pulled his arm and said, "Let's cut to the chase. How far have you and Ling Jiaoyue progressed? There are rumors in the martial arts world that the two of you were on the Fairy Island... hanging out on the Fairy Island for two months. Is that true?"
After saying that, Jiang Ningshuang turned her face away again, looking a little disappointed.
According to her original plan, after meeting Lu Zhan, she had to maintain an indifferent attitude and a cold tone, and absolutely not ask any questions proactively, and wait for Lu Zhan to confess.
But after seeing Lu Zhan, she realized that she couldn't help herself.
Even though she looked aggressive on the outside, her heart felt like a deer running around in her chest or being scratched by a cat. She just wanted to know the truth about the fairy island.
Lu Zhan didn't say anything, he just pulled her wrist, performed the Yi Chen Xu Bu, and brought her home.
"crunch-"
After Lu Zhan closed the doors and windows and set up a barrier to prevent others from eavesdropping, he said seriously: "The matter of the Fairy Island is a long story. What happened between me and Ling Jiaoyue is not what you think. Just listen to me and I will tell you slowly."
"I won't listen!" Jiang Ningshuang turned her head away and sniffed, "Just tell me directly how far you and her have come."
"We are practicing dual cultivation." Lu Zhan originally wanted to lay the groundwork, but no matter how he laid the groundwork, he could not change this fact.
He didn't want to hurt Jiang Jiang, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't think of anything to say that would make her happy to accept it.
Jiang Ningshuang blinked, as if she was stunned, and then tears flowed out. She clenched her fist and hit him: "You...you actually practiced dual cultivation?!"
Rumor has it that Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue were trapped on the fairy island, supporting each other for two months and establishing a revolutionary friendship.
As for the word "muddling around", it's just everyone's imagination.
Jiang Ningshuang originally thought that the two of them were just flirting on the fairy island, but she didn't expect that they would go all the way and actually...
He actually practiced dual cultivation? !
Jiang Ningshuang hit him hard twice, but felt that it was not strong enough, so she took out a short sword and pierced Lu Zhan's neck with tears: "You know that I hate her the most! Or have you already... already forgotten me after not seeing me for a few months?"
At that time, the sword was only 0.01 centimeters away from my throat... Lu Zhan did not resist: "Although this incident had its reasons, it was indeed my fault that I lost control."
Lu Zhan originally wanted to explain that it was because of the "Essence of Divine Fire" and the "Essence of Ice", but then he thought, even if he had to do so at the time, what about afterwards?
After all, he had feelings for Yueyue. No matter how he explained or argued, this was an undeniable fact.
Rather than using sweet words to deceive Jiang Jiang, he would rather face it calmly.
Jiang Ningshuang tightened her grip on the dagger, but she couldn't bring herself to do it no matter what. The dagger in her hand became a joke. She felt even more wronged and angry, but still refused to put away the dagger. Her big eyes stared at Lu Zhan, stubbornly refusing to move away.
After a long while, she suddenly sniffed and said with a smile, "That's right, Ling Jiaoyue has a beautiful personality and long legs. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to control myself. She's nothing like me. I have a bad temper and a lot of things to do. Sometimes I don't even have enough brains. How can I compare to Fairy Ling?"
"It's not like that..."
"What's that? You know very well that I hate her the most!" Jiang Ningshuang's dagger moved closer, but there was always a distance between them, so she didn't really hurt him.
Lu Zhan grabbed her hand and asked, "Doesn't it hurt when you hold the sword so tightly?"
"..." Jiang Ningshuang pursed her lips, her heart suddenly trembling. She tried hard not to cry, but she couldn't help it. She never thought that she was so fond of crying.
"I know you care about me in your heart, and I also know you understand me. You know, if there is no reason, I would not do that." Lu Zhan sighed, "After that incident, I knew there would be a scene like today, but I still want to say that things have come to this point. If you really can't vent your anger, then give me a knife to vent your anger. It's a good opportunity to use me to try and see if your practice of the Purple Qi Bu Tian Jue is in place."
Jiang Ningshuang stared at him, unable to utter another word.
She really wanted to tell him confidently that she didn't care about him at all and came here just to beat him up to vent her anger, but the words just wouldn't come out.
Only she herself knew why she had traveled all the way from Hangzhou, traveling day and night without stopping.
Was it to bring him to justice? No.
She just wanted to see with her own eyes whether he was safe and sound.
After returning to Xiuyinfang last time, she vowed to practice hard and become a helper to Lu Zhan instead of a burden. Since then, she has been practicing hard in seclusion day and night without sleep.
But because of this, she had no idea how turbulent things were happening in the outside world during the time she was in seclusion.
When she came out of retreat and heard that Lu Zhan "died on the fairy island", she was at a loss and no longer had any interest in anything else. She didn't care about the rumors about Lu Zhan and Ling Jiaoyue at all. She only wanted to know whether Lu Zhan was safe and sound now.
Later, when she read the letter Lu Zhan wrote to her and confirmed that Lu Zhan was safe and sound, she began to feel sour in her heart.
The damn Ling Jiaoyue actually took advantage of her retreat to hook up with Lu Zhan!
Damn Lu Zhan, he knew that she hated Ling Jiaoyue, but he still hooked up with Ling Jiaoyue!
Although she knew that Lu Zhan was not the kind of person who would hook up randomly and that there must be a reason why he was traveling with Ling Jiaoyue, she felt extremely jealous when she thought that the woman she hated the most was flying together with her lover while she was in seclusion and practicing hard.
She rushed to Bian Jing day and night, traveling thousands of miles without a break, just to meet Lu Zhan in person. If he was really safe and sound, she would "break up" with him and let him know that she was not the kind of girl who was easy to talk to and that she had a bad temper.
But when she really saw him, Jiang Ningshuang suddenly realized that she had traveled thousands of miles not to break up with him, but just to see if he was okay.
Looking at his face so close to her and hearing him ask her to cut him with a knife to vent her anger, all of Jiang Ningshuang's resentment seemed to disappear at this moment, and she couldn't help but move closer.
We haven't seen each other for a long time, it's like a bolt from the blue.
Jiang Ningshuang was kissed until she was dazed, but she had no intention of resisting. After not seeing each other for so long, she missed him beyond words.
She held Lu Zhan's head and bit his mouth hard, trying to make him bleed, but every time at the critical moment, she couldn't help but hold back.
Jiang Ningshuang hated herself for being spineless, so she pushed Lu Zhan away angrily and sat aside crying silently, her eyes were red, her dagger was thrown aside, and she looked as aggrieved as a child.
"Don't cry, let me tell you slowly." Lu Zhan wiped her tears and said gently.
Jiang Ningshuang said coldly with a stern face: "I will just listen to your excuses reluctantly!"
Lu Zhan heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that the matter was halfway over. All he needed to do next was to find the right words and the matter would be resolved without any harm.
In addition, Lu Zhan knew that Jiang Jiang's feelings were pure and precious, and he needed to cherish them even more.
Whether it is Yueyue or Xiaochu, they are different to him, but Jiang Jiang is also different compared to them.
Jiang Jiang does not have the pressure that Ling Jiaoyue has to bear, nor does she have the shrewdness of Xiao Chu. Jiang Jiang is a silly and pure girl. When getting along with Jiang Jiang, he does not have to have any scruples. He can say whatever he wants to say and do whatever he wants to do without any weighing of the pros and cons.
This sense of casualness makes people feel comfortable.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhan sighed, "The matter of the Fairy Island is really treacherous and turbulent. First, I was hunted by the Twelve Earth Alliance, and then I was besieged by the young marquis and the Twelve Earth Alliance... I was also threatened by the swamp monster and beaten by the drought demon... Finally, I was tortured by the divine fire left by the Fire Phoenix King... Let me tell you slowly."
The cold wind was howling outside, making the pine and bamboo trees rustle, and the piled snow fell down and floated into the window through the stained glass window.
Jiang Ningshuang sat behind a small table, leaning forward, supporting her chin with one hand, letting the table bear the weight of her body.
She said that she didn't want to listen, but in fact she listened very carefully, afraid of missing any details.
Lu Zhan couldn't help but glance at it, somewhat worried about the small table's ability to bear the weight.
When Jiang Jiang heard that the four heroes of the Mo family were fighting four against one, he frowned and said, "These bastards from the Twelve Land Alliance have no martial ethics at all. I heard that you used aphrodisiacs to fight the enemy?"
"I was forced to do that..." Lu Zhan sighed, "They wanted to use aphrodisiac on me, but they accidentally spilled it on themselves. How could I be someone who carries aphrodisiac with me?"
"I reluctantly believe you." Jiang Jiang urged him to continue.
Lu Zhan expressed his gratitude for her trust and began to tell her about the robbery by the hideous old swamp monster...
Jiang Jiang was furious when she heard this. She slammed the table and angrily said, "These old monsters are so rude that they actually do robbery!"
"Alas... who said it wasn't true? If I hadn't run fast, I'm afraid there would be nothing left... There are many dangers on the fairy island, and there are some things that you have no choice about."
Lu Zhan tried his best to lay the groundwork, hoping that when he mentioned Ling Jiaoyue, Jiang Jiang would understand what was going on and stop being upset.
