BXBX NOVEL Chapter 473: 473: Persuasion
Jiang Xiaobai and the others were always out training or in the War God’s space.
She hardly ever spoke, her sudden appearance was unexpected.
“Why are you so agitated?” AnRan asked puzzled.
Zhuang Huanling rolled her eyes at him: “How can I not be agitated? That’s a powerful sect in the central region of the Holy City.”
“If you, Sister Ao Yan, can join them and become an inner disciple, Dragon Valley will quickly rise to an extraordinary power!”
People generally believe Zhuang Huanling’s words.
After all, they know how strong the sects that can survive in the central region of the Holy City are.
But Ao Yan didn’t seem interested.
“I don’t have much interest in the Holy City. Furthermore, depending on someone else’s sect is not beneficial for Dragon Valley, one’s power is one’s own.”
Ao Yan indifferently stated, “Let’s move on, you all are…”
Before she finishes speaking, a maid suddenly walks into the courtyard.
“Miss, there’s someone from Jade Ling Palace outside wanting to see you. Your senior brother is here with the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable.”
Upon hearing this, Ao Yan squints her eyes.
She probably understands why the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable came, just to ask her to join Jade Ling Palace.
But that senior brother…
Since she entered the Jade Ling Palace, apart from training, she barely had any personal relationships!
How could she have a senior brother?
Despite her doubts, Ao Yan decides to get up since the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable is her master and has been helpful to Dragon Valley.
Although she doesn’t really want to join Jade Ling Palace, Ao Yan can’t disrespect him.
She thus gets up to go outside.
Nobody else in the courtyard seemed interested in following. This was a matter for someone else’s sect. Only Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes.
He could feel Ao Yan’s discomfort!
“Most likely, they’re trying to persuade Yan’er to join Jade Ling Palace.”
Jiang Xiaobai muttered to himself, then waved over the maid who spoke earlier and asked her about the situation.
When the maid mentioned that the man who claimed to be their Miss’s senior brother was repeatedly addressing her as Yan’er, both Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Cheng couldn’t stand it any longer!
“This damn bastard, he wants to covet my sister?”
Furious, Ao Cheng slammed down on the table: “Damn it, what’s so special about someone from Jade Ling Palace? This young master isn’t even afraid of the War God Palace, let alone them!”
Jiang Xiaobai’s face also darkened.
They’re all men, who doesn’t understand whom?
Seeing their reactions, the people seated also frowned, roughly understanding the situation.
“Let’s go, let’s go take a look!”
Jiang Xiaobai snorted and got up, throwing the chopsticks in his hand onto the table in anger.
Meanwhile, inside Dragon Palace.
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable was sitting with Ouyang Haohai. Across from them sat Ao Wan, Ao Cangtian, and Ao Yan.
“Yan’er, listen to your master’s advice, joining Jade Ling Palace is all benefit and no harm!”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable persuasively said, “Don’t hold a grudge against your master because of past events. Your master had no choice either… if I were to tell you the real situation, who knows what impulsive decisions you might have made!”
It was a fact.
Back then, the Gu Clan had connections with the War God Palace. No matter how powerful they were, the Jade Ling Palace couldn’t compete with the War God Palace.
They obviously didn’t know about the events that occurred at the War God Palace in the Holy City.
The Holy City’s news blockade was very strict; their own internal members knew about it and there was no need to announce it to the world. Wouldn’t that be disgraceful?
However, the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable did feel regretful when she thought about this.
But those were unimportant, the urgent matter was to get Ao Yan to join the Jade Ling Palace. No matter who benefited, the situation would be extremely favorable!
Furthermore, the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable thought that if Ao Yan joined, it could show Jiang Xiaobai the gap between the two of them!
“Yan’er, think about it, joining Jade Ling Palace would mean a huge change in the resources available to you and your status!”
“Even the whole Dragon Valley could rise to be an extraordinary force because you are a disciple of Jade Ling Palace!”
Hearing the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable’s persuasion, Ao Wan and others also nodded in agreement.
As high-ranking members of the family, they naturally looked at the situation from a more comprehensive perspective and they all hoped that Ao Yan could join.
But the problem seemed to be that Ao Yan did not look very willing.
She remained silent.
“Yan’er, what do you think?” After thinking for a bit, Ao Cangtian asked.
Ao Yan simply shook her head: “Like I said, I have no interest in the Holy City. Jade Ling Palace is a good opportunity, but the resources provided by both Jade Ling Palace and Dragon Valley are enough for me to improve.”
“At least for the moment, I do not wish to join the Jade Ling Palace.”
Upon hearing this, the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable was the first to frown.
She seemed to have a face full of disappointment!
“Why are you so ignorant? What Jade Ling Palace has, they have it at Jade Ling Palace. What Jade Ling Palace does not have, they have it at Jade Ling Palace!”
“You’re doing this for your own good, and entering it would give you a chance to experience a wider world!”
The Martial Sea Immortal Venerable kept persuading, she genuinely believed that Ao Yan would benefit immensely by joining Jade Ling Palace.
On the side, the accompanying Ouyang Haohai also strongly recommended: “Yes, Junior Sister Yan’er, think about it. When you join Jade Ling Palace, you will be dealing with more powerful masters.”
“It would be a great help to broaden your horizons and improve your strength.”
Upon hearing this, Ao Yan immediately frowned: “Ouyang Senior Brother, did I ever give you permission to address me like this?”
“Uh, cough, I was reckless. But seriously think about this matter.”
Ouyang Haohai awkwardly laughed: “It would be extremely beneficial, definitely not a bad thing. The sect really is considering your future, otherwise we wouldn’t be trying to persuade you like this, right?”
Ao Yan only snorted in response without saying anything.
All the things Ouyang Haohai said, Ao Yan had no interest in at all. The so-called broadening of horizons, could the experiences Jade Ling Palace provide compare to the War God Space?
That was a place filled with elites and prodigies from three thousand worlds, could those experiences even compare to his Jade Ling Palace?
As for resources, she didn’t need them, Dragon Valley had plenty.
Of course, the most important reason was, she didn’t want to be separated from Jiang Xiaobai again, and she definitely did not want to go to Jade Ling Palace with Ouyang Haohai!
Ao Wan and Ao Cangtian were sitting on the side, not speaking anymore. They wanted the Dragon Valley to be better but respect Ao Yan’s choice more!
Seeing that it seemed difficult to communicate with Ao Yan, Ouyang Haohai gritted his teeth and said.
“Junior Sister Yan’er, even if you don’t think for yourself, you should consider the help the Martial Sea Immortal Venerable provided Dragon Valley in the past.”
