Xiao Yao Sect.

Sect Leader's Hall.

Chen Lan was unaware that Yan Yu was starting to doubt his identity, but it didn't matter; after all, Chen Lan never intended to keep this identity secret forever.

There will always be an appropriate moment for him to reveal it.

"Are you alright, Chen Lan?" Bing Lan stepped forward to check on Chen Lan's body and was relieved to find nothing wrong.

"I'm fine, I just took a trip to the New World," Chen Lan smiled faintly and continued, "Feel free to explore here; I'll help you suppress the Ice Power within you so you can play around freely without worrying about harming others."

After speaking, he flicked his fingers, and a wisp of Spiritual Qi mixed with Time Dao Power entered Bing Lan's body, suppressing the Dao Power of the Ice Dao, rendering it harmless.

Bing Lan immediately felt the agitated Ice Power within her being subdued, and her body temperature returned to normal.

She had always been at minus ten degrees; though she was fine, anyone who touched her wasn't.

Now, she finally experienced the temperature of a normal person.

Feeling the temperature she hadn't sensed in so long, tears involuntarily streamed down Bing Lan's face.

This sensation, she hadn't felt it for so long she had forgotten.

"Thank you, Chen Lan, it's been so long since I felt a normal person's temperature,"

"No problem, go play outside for a bit; you can rest assured here, no one can bully you," Chen Lan said with a light smile.

"Alright, I'm heading out," Bing Lan nodded; she knew Chen Lan had things to attend to, so she obediently left.

After Bing Lan left, Chen Lan's expression turned serious. He set up multiple barriers and Time Domains, sat cross-legged, regulated his breathing, and an ice-blue Dao Power emerged from his Dantian.

"The ultimate Ice Dao; if I fully refine it, my Ice Dao can breakthrough to perfection," Chen Lan murmured.

But he couldn't understand why this Dao Power was left for him. Why was he called master? Was there a mistake?

But since it was given to him, he gladly accepted it.

Before long, Chen Lan began refining the Ice Dao, and it would likely take a long time to fully refine it.

...

"How beautiful, this place is so grand."

Bing Lan left the Sect Leader's Hall, amazed by the scenery of the Xiao Yao Sect, having never seen such a beautiful sect before.

"Hey, aren't you Chen Lan's girlfriend?"

At this moment, a voice rang out, and Bing Lan turned to see Gu Ying and the other two.

The three were surprised to see Bing Lan here. How did she appear here?

Could it be that Chen Lan truly is Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable?

"Ah, it's you guys, do you also live here?" Bing Lan exclaimed in surprise, feeling it was fateful to meet them again.

"Mm, do you?" Luo Tao nodded, glancing around and not spotting Chen Lan.

"Sort of, I didn't live here before, Chen Lan brought me here," Bing Lan nodded in response.

"Where did Chen Lan go?" Yan Yu asked urgently.

The answer was already evident; if Chen Lan was here, then he must be Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable.

"He's there; he has things to do, so he let me come out," Bing Lan pointed to a location.

The three followed where Bing Lan pointed, and their bodies trembled, stunned on the spot.

"Huh? What's wrong with you guys?" Bing Lan turned to them curiously.

At this moment, they were all dumbfounded, staring at the Sect Leader's Hall with hearts in turmoil.

"The Sect Leader's Hall, if Chen Lan's there, then he must be the Sect Leader, Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable!" Gu Ying exclaimed in disbelief.

He truly was Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable, Yan Yu hadn't guessed wrong, that guy really was the Great Emperor!

"This is too sudden, my brother is the Great Emperor?" Luo Tao murmured. Before this, he didn't believe Chen Lan was Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable because it seemed too outrageous.

Now, knowing Chen Lan was in the Sect Leader's Hall, they were completely dumbfounded; he really was Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable.

The brother with whom he had a close relationship, who gave endless resources to him and his family, letting him enter the sect, turned out to be Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable!

Everything before now had a good explanation; why Chen Lan could provide so many resources, why he had so many secrets unknown to him, why he guaranteed entrance to Xiao Yao Sect.

Because he was the Sect Leader of Xiao Yao Sect, he was Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable.

Gradually, Luo Tao's face turned red as he recalled many awkward situations. He hadn't just once or twice mentioned surpassing Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable in front of Chen Lan, who was always there.

What a jerk, hiding so well; if they hadn't discovered, he might never have revealed himself.

No, they definitely need to give him a good beating.

No way, they can't beat him, he's the Great Emperor.

They are just underlings.

"So, it really is him," Yan Yu smiled, her guess was right; Chen Lan truly was Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable.

But suddenly, her face also turned red. Her student turned out to be Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable, and also a former employee; was this a student-teacher romance or a secret affair between boss and employee?

"Now that we know Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable is Chen Lan, should we tell anyone?" Gu Ying asked a crucial question.

Upon hearing this, the other two paused, pondering for a long time.

"I think Chen Lan must have his reasons for not disclosing it, knowing is enough; we shouldn't spread it around and risk aggravating him," Yan Yu suggested.

Chen Lan must have his reasons for hiding his identity, it's his privacy; they can't just go telling everyone, it would upset him.

"True, we can't risk making Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable upset," Gu Ying nodded, since she intended to be Xiao Yao Celestial Venerable's woman, she couldn't let him be displeased.

"Yeah, let's keep it to ourselves," Luo Tao agreed.

"What's going on, what are you guys talking about?" Bing Lan blinked her blue eyes, asking in confusion.

"Are you really Chen Lan's girlfriend?" Yan Yu asked Bing Lan, somewhat envious.

Their own identities hadn't been recognized yet, and someone else had already made the first move; too envious.

"What's a girlfriend?" Bing Lan tilted her head, frowning in confusion, her expression very cute.

"Huh? You don't even know what a girlfriend is, are you not from this world?" Luo Tao was stunned, this girl seemed a little off?

"No, I've been asleep for a long time and just woke up today," Bing Lan shook her head.

The three were amazed, not expecting this girl to not be from this world.

Yan Yu and Gu Ying both breathed a sigh of relief, which meant this girl probably wasn't Chen Lan's girlfriend after all.

"I don't know what a girlfriend is, but I know that Chen Lan is my best friend."

Bing Lan proudly smiled, unaware she had just revealed her good friend's identity.
