Lan Yan.
Zhao Shuning didn't have much of an impression of her.
The only thing she remembered was that Lan Yan had a good image in the sect back then. She was quite good - looking, and her temperament was just barely to Zhao Shuning's taste.
Lan Yan was extremely anxious.
She almost ran to Lan Anran's side.
When she saw Zhao Shuning, for a moment, she didn't recognize her.
Her steps also came to an abrupt halt the moment she saw Zhao Shuning.
"Brother, you're already at such an age. How could you walk with such a beautiful disciple? Aren't you afraid that the students will say you're an old lecher?"
Zhao Shuning was a bit surprised.
She looked at Lan Yan.
After all these years, Lan Yan was different from the woman in her memory.
Now, she was also getting on in years, and her hair was a bit gray. However, there was still a trace of her former cold and charming look between her eyebrows.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lan Yan asked.
Then she realized that the timing was off.
So she hurriedly said to Lan Anran, "Brother, hurry up. That landlady's spiritual power has advanced by leaps and bounds in recent years. Even I am no match for her now."
Saying that.
Lan Yan was about to drag Lan Anran away.
Zhao Shuning let out a laugh.
She followed behind them.
Lan Yan naturally noticed this.
But at this moment, she didn't pay attention to Zhao Shuning.
When they were halfway there.
Lan Yan suddenly stopped.
She widened her eyes.
Lan Anran was also forced to stop.
Lan Yan turned her head extremely slowly.
Looking at Zhao Shuning, Zhao Shuning could guess from her expression that she had recognized her.
So she waved her hand.
Then she said, "Beautiful Miss Lan, after you."
That familiar tone.
That stunning face with a trace of her former charm.
It slowly overlapped with the girl in her mind.
Was it her?
"Zhao Shuning?"
"It's me."
Lan Yan looked at Lan Anran, and Lan Anran nodded.
Zhao Shuning also found it a bit incredible. Logically speaking, she had spent more time with Lan Yan than with Lan Anran. But the result was that Lan Anran could recognize her at a glance, while Lan Yan only remembered her existence after reacting for a long time.
"Zhao Shuning, how did you... become like this?"
Lan Yan still remembered.
When she first met Zhao Shuning, Zhao Shuning's skin wasn't as fair as it was now, and her facial features weren't as delicate either.
But her every move was quite similar to that of the little hooligan girl back then.
"A girl becomes more beautiful with each passing year," Zhao Shuning said narcissistically.
A trace of discomfort flashed through Lan Yan's heart.
Back then, when she stood with Zhao Shuning, most of the senior and junior brothers would basically focus their eyes on her.
Now, when they met again, it was a world of difference.
Zhao Shuning was about to say something else.
But at this moment.
A girl - looking figure was thrown out of a circle.
Zhao Shuning took a quick look.
She lightly tapped her toes on the ground and immediately flew forward, steadily catching the girl.
The girl's name was Wenwen.
In the sect, many people would call her little junior sister when they saw her.
Just now, that landlady wanted to "teach" the students again. But this time, Wenwen didn't manage to dodge.
After just three moves, she was thrown out of the circle by the landlady. Wenwen originally thought that this time, she would have an intimate contact with the ground like before.
But -
The sudden soft feeling behind her made her stunned.
Wenwen turned her head.
What she saw was Zhao Shuning's side profile.
You have to admit that although Zhao Shuning was a hooligan on a regular basis, when she came to the rescue of a beauty, she was so clean - cut and heroic.
So much so that.
Even when she let go of the girl Wenwen, Wenwen still hadn't reacted.
She was looking at Zhao Shuning with a star - struck face.
It was understandable.
As a defeated girl, suddenly being rescued by such a beautiful and heroic woman, Wenwen's heart was pounding like a deer running wild.
Zhao Shuning coughed.
"Beautiful girl, are you okay?"
Wenwen put her hands under her chin and was still in a daze.
At this time, Lan Anran quickly spoke up.
"Junior Sister Zhao, pay attention to the occasion. How come you only care about rescuing the female disciples and ignore the male students?"
"Ah? What?"
Only then did Zhao Shuning realize that just now, she had been focused on flirting with the little girl in front of her.
She looked around.
Only then did she see that there were no less than twenty men lying on the ground. But with her quick eyes and hands, after rescuing Wenwen, she quickly saved another four or five girls who were about to fall to the ground.
"Sorry, sorry."
Zhao Shuning didn't know why she was apologizing. She just said it subconsciously.
After Lan Anran finished speaking, he immediately rushed into the circle.
Lan Yan just stretched out her hand. Before she could stop Lan Anran, he had already rushed in.
"Wait -"
Wait a minute. She had called her brother here to persuade the landlady not to use force. She had forgotten to tell her brother that she had already fought with the landlady before.
The result was.
She was defeated.
If her brother's body was still as strong as it was back then, it wouldn't be a problem for him to deal with the landlady. But over the years, his body had been getting weaker day by day, while the landlady's body was still the same as it was a long time ago, and her spiritual power had also improved a lot.
So.
If her brother were to deal with the landlady.
Maybe, perhaps, probably, he wouldn't have much chance of winning?
Lan Yan looked anxious.
Zhao Shuning noticed this.
Zhao Shuning left Wenwen and the other little beauties and walked up to Lan Yan.
She said, "What? Are you still worried about Lan Anran?"
Lan Yan nodded.
Zhao Shuning said, "From what I know about Lan Anran, his spiritual power is extremely powerful. He should be able to deal with the landlady."
"It wasn't a problem forty years ago, nor was it a problem ten years ago. But now, it's not certain," Lan Yan covered her eyes.
Because at this time, the person flying out of the circle was Lan Anran.
However, Lan Anran was a teacher after all. When his body flew out quickly, he quickly stabilized his figure, so he still landed steadily beside Zhao Shuning.
Lan Anran looked up.
Zhao Shuning laughed.
The other students also couldn't help but smile.
Lan Anran's mouth twitched in pain at this time.
"Teacher Rong, we agreed not to hit the face!"
Lan Anran's right eye was now severely bruised.
Feeling Zhao Shuning's gaze on him, he felt a bit uncomfortable. Maybe it was that little bit of male chauvinism in his heart that made him feel ashamed in front of Zhao Shuning.
He rushed into the circle again.
Zhao Shuning covered her face with one hand and couldn't help but laugh.
Lan Yan could only let out a sigh.
As expected.
A moment later.
Lan Anran flew out of the circle again. This time, his left eye was also bruised.
He stood up.
His voice trembled as he said, "Teacher Rong, why don't you respect the elderly and care for the young at all!"
