Chapter 367: Both Father and Mother
Lan Jinyu stood outside the door, hesitating and not daring to go in. The tasks that Bai Lan had assigned to her before he left flashed wildly through her mind... Very good, she completed each one very well.
Outside the tavern, Lan Jinyu was caught in a brainstorm. He looked at Bai Lan from afar, but his steps did not move forward.
Like a student standing outside his teacher's door, he recalled everything he had done in the past few months, fearing that he would see the majesty that only an old man would show on Bai Lan's young face.
Bai Lan certainly sensed Lan Jinyu's presence outside the tavern, but he didn't point it out. He just continued to chat with the waiter in front of him with a smile.
"I don't know what kind of opportunity and fortune the eldest daughter of the Lan family has had, but her cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds. It's a pity that her father..." The waiter shook his head helplessly when he mentioned the patriarch of the Lan family.
Bai Lan raised an eyebrow: "What happened to his father?"
"It is said that the head of the Lan family, for some unknown reason, was unwilling to let Lan Jinyu be the young master, and wanted his youngest son to take the position. Unfortunately, Lan Jinyu's fighting ability is outstanding, and among the current young generation of the Lan family, few can rival her. The head of the Lan family did not say much due to the family rules."
There was a flash of coldness in Bai Lan's eyes.
She had spent a lot of effort to promote this person, and had done everything according to the procedures, but the head of the Lan family still dared to be dissatisfied.
"Bai...Fellow Daoist Bai!" Lan Jinyu finally walked in front of Bai Lan.
Bai Lan smiled and gestured to sit down: "Friend Lan, it's been a long time since we last met. How are you these days?"
"Okay, okay, thank you Brother Bai for your concern." Lan Jinyu nodded nervously.
The waiter at the side blinked, and after seeing who it was, he stammered, "Wait, you, you are Young Master Lan? Do you know each other?"
This person may seem inconspicuous, but he actually has an astonishing identity.
The waiter, who had been working as a waiter for a long time, reacted quickly. This kind of scene only happens once every few years, and today was an eye-opener.
"I will serve you two a pot of our best liquor right away!" the waiter said, then tactfully left.
Lan Jinyu nodded slightly, and slowly sat down opposite Bai Lan, with a hint of respect in her tone: "I wonder if you have any instructions for coming here this time..."
"Do you know the Lin family of Cangwu Prefecture?"
Lan Jinyu's expression flashed: "I know, the Lin family is one of the top three immortal cultivation families in Cangwuzhou. There are three Yuanying ancestors in the family, and there is a late Yuanying cultivator in charge."
"I'm looking for someone. His name is Lin Mie Tian. You go find him and place a spy around him." Bai Lan spoke slowly.
This person is the one who was possessed by Long Aotian after his accidental death, the good-for-nothing young master of the Lin family.
Lan Jinyu hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and nodded in agreement.
Bai Lan smiled slightly when he saw this: "I know what you are thinking."
Although the Lan family is a well-known family in Cangwuzhou, it is still slightly inferior to the Lin family. It is not a wise move for Yu Lan Jinyu, the newly appointed young master of the Lan family, to rashly provoke the Lin family.
But this was Bai Lan's task. Although Lan Jinyu was embarrassed, she agreed without hesitation.
"Lin Mietian is not from the main family of the Lin family. He is just a member of the side branch of the Lin family in a remote city. If nothing unexpected happens, he is currently just a marginal figure in the Lin family, a useless young master. Even if he is accidentally killed by an evil cultivator to silence him, no one will care."
"So that's how it is. Then this matter will be easy to handle." Lan Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief.
If Long Aotian in Qingyuan Sect had the script of a sect disciple's counterattack, then Lin Mietian had the script of a good-for-nothing young master of the family's counterattack.
In a remote city, an insignificant good-for-nothing young master, a young man from Hedong who had been oppressed for decades, accidentally obtained a magical golden finger.
Lin Mietian initially took advantage of the situation in his small family to rise up, gained a harem of beautiful women, obtained family power, and harvested countless spirit stones.
Later, because of his outstanding talent, he was recommended and moved from a small map to a medium map, and finally from a medium map to a large map, and finally to the main home of the Lin family, and then to a larger world.
Every time the map changes, Lin Mie Tian will experience a series of twists and turns, such as being looked down upon, being humiliated, having the beautiful women around him coveted, and so on. Then Lin Mie Tian will counterattack and rise up, and then they will be slapped in the face again.
Before these people started looking for trouble, it was as if they had never done any research in private. They had no idea of Lin Mietian's true strength, and they just started to mock and ridicule him.
It is also possible that they have conducted research but still look down on it.
Although Long Aotian is not dead now, he is living a miserable life in Xue'er's hands.
Lin Mietian did not become Long Aotian, and he was still the good-for-nothing young master.
But Bai Lan didn't mind making second-hand preparations in advance, such as replacing the beautiful maid beside Lin Mietian with the spy sent by Lan Jinyu, and sending a dark-faced strong man to accompany Long Aotian.
For example, he could use his connections to replace the beautiful auctioneer at Wanbaolou with a handsome and cool guy who would flirt with Long Aotian.
Or she could just send a remnant soul to act as Long Aotian's personal grandfather and monitor all the opportunities that Long Aotian encounters in real time for her.
Once Long Aotian is reborn, he will be surrounded by Bai Lan's men.
"I wonder who Lin Mietian is and why he is valued so much by the ancestor." Lan Jinyu asked curiously.
Bai Lan smiled mysteriously: "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."
"Jinyu asked too many questions..."
Bai Lan smiled kindly: "You don't have to be so nervous when talking to me, Jin Yu. You have never let me down. Whether it is in training or in seizing power, you have done a good job."
Lan Jinyu suddenly raised her eyes, her expression moved: "Really, really?"
No elder had ever praised her like this before! Neither her father nor her mother, who had long since died and never appeared, had ever given Lan Jinyu this feeling.
Although he had a young face, the old man gave her the feeling of both father and mother.
"Of course, Jin Yu is the person I trust the most." Bai Lan nodded affirmatively: "No one else."
The Fifth Yin, who had just stepped into the tavern, paused and his expression gradually became strange.
What a familiar voice! Could it be that woman is lying again?
Diwu Yin slowly turned her head and saw Bai Lan and her familiar smile.
She had said this to herself before... Oh, how could she not trust them? The souls of the people under her were in her hands, so of course she trusted everyone.
"Yes!" Lan Jinyu was so moved that she looked up and saw Diwu Yin, and quickly restrained her expression: "I have read the handwritten letter from Fellow Daoist Bai. Fellow Daoist Wu is quite capable and is now a steward of the Lan family. After she breaks through to the Jindan stage, she will be able to become a guest elder of my Lan family."
"Haha, you did a good job." Bai Lan looked at Diwu Yin: "It's been a long time since I last saw Sister Yin."
"I dare not, but I cannot bear the call of elder sister from you." Fifth Yin sighed: "It is better to address you as fellow Taoist. Although according to your cultivation speed, I will have to call you senior soon..."
It is obvious that she had established her foundation earlier than Bai Lan, but she is still wandering in the early stage of foundation building, while Bai Lan has already cultivated to the middle stage of foundation building.
Forget it. There is no need to compare the cultivation speed of this Qi Refining Stage to hunting down Dan-forming monsters.
"This is the storage bag that was seized from Long Aotian before. You said that we can distribute the rest of the things as we like, but you have to check his storage bag yourself." After the Fifth Yin finished speaking, he handed over a gray-white storage bag.
