Chapter 224 Lan Mengyan's Conspiracy
The town's market was bustling with people bustling through the streets and stalls filled with all kinds of goods.
But Lan Yunyan had no intention of appreciating these things. She was always thinking about her experiences in the forest.
Finally, they returned to the Lan Mansion of the Purple Moon Empire.
The gate of the Lan Mansion is tall and majestic, and the copper rings on the door sparkle with an ancient luster in the sunlight.
Lan Yunyan knocked gently on the doorknob. After a while, the door slowly opened. The housekeeper saw Lan Yunyan and the others and his eyes were full of surprise. "Miss, you are finally back. The master has been talking about you every day."
Lan Yunyan walked into the mansion, and every blade of grass and tree in the mansion was filled with a familiar smell. She walked quickly towards her grandfather's room and heard him cough at the door.
She pushed open the door and saw her grandfather sitting in a chair with a slightly haggard face.
"Grandpa, I'm back." Lan Yunyan's eyes were a little moist.
Grandpa looked up and saw Lan Yunyan, and a relieved smile immediately appeared on his face. "My dear granddaughter, you are back. Grandpa's heart can finally be put at ease."
Lan Yunyan walked over to Grandpa and held his hand. "Grandpa, how is your health? Have you taken your medicine on time?"
Grandpa smiled and patted her hand. "I have the housekeeper to take care of me, so I'm fine. But you, were you hurt this time?"
Lan Yunyan shook her head and said, "I'm fine, Grandpa."
In Qingyun Continent, Ling Xiuhan returned to the Holy Palace, feeling increasingly depressed. He sat on the throne, his fingers rhythmically tapping the armrests, his eyes revealing a sense of dominance and majesty.
"Yingyi, continue to send people to investigate Lan Yunyan's whereabouts. I want to know her every move."
Yingyi received the order and quickly retreated to arrange personnel.
Ling Xiu Han stood up, walked to the window, looked into the distance, and secretly swore in his heart that he must find Lan Yunyan again, no matter what difficulties he encountered.
Lan Yunyan sat next to Old Man Lan, still recounting her adventures in the forest. "Grandpa, deep in the forest there's a misty lake. The water is clear yet mysterious. There's a small island in the center of the lake. Something seems to be calling me on the island, but the surrounding fog is too thick. We've tried several times but haven't been able to get close."
Mr. Lan listened attentively, his eyes filled with curiosity about the unknown. "Is there anything special about the lake? For example, are there any special plants or animals around it?"
"There's a kind of luminescent moss by the lake, and there's a species of white deer whose horns seem to be condensed from moonlight, elegant and mysterious. But the deer are very alert, and disappear into the mist at the slightest sign of movement."
Lan Yunyan recalled, her eyes sparkling.
At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, and then the door was suddenly pushed open, and Lan Mengyan rushed in.
She was dressed in gorgeous Baiyin Palace costumes, with a delicate yet somewhat domineering face.
Lan Mengyan rushed in and saw Lan Yunyan having an intimate conversation with her grandfather, which made her jealous even more.
She glared at Lan Yunyan fiercely and said in a bad tone, "Hmph, Lan Yunyan, you're quite capable. You go out for a while and come back to coax grandpa around."
Lan Yunyan raised her eyes slightly, glanced at Lan Mengyan coldly, and replied bluntly: "What does it have to do with you?"
Lan Mengyan was irritated by Lan Yunyan's attitude. She stepped forward, pointed at Lan Yunyan and said, "Don't think that just because Grandpa dotes on you, you can be arrogant. Let me tell you, in this family, I am the one with the most status."
Lan Yunyan curled her lips into a mocking smile and said, "Your so-called status is only gained by relying on the Baiyin Palace. Without the Baiyin Palace, what would you be?"
Lan Mengyan was so angry that her face turned pale. She raised her hand, wanting to hit Lan Yunyan. But Lan Yunyan was not afraid at all. She straightened her back and looked at Lan Mengyan with a firm gaze.
Just as Lan Mengyan's hand was about to fall, Old Man Lan coughed lightly and said, "Mengyan, stop."
Lan Mengyan reluctantly put down her hand, turned to look at her grandfather, and said aggrievedly: "Grandpa, look at her, she doesn't even take me seriously."
Old Master Lan frowned slightly and said, "Meng Yan, you are the elder sister. You should take care of your younger sister instead of making things difficult for her."
Lan Mengyan was dissatisfied and said, "Grandpa, I am your granddaughter, why do you always favor her?"
Old Master Lan looked at Lan Mengyan, his eyes revealing a hint of disappointment, and said: "Yunyan is also my granddaughter, I am not partial to anyone. It's just that you are a sister, but you don't act like a sister at all."
Lan Mengyan bit her lip, a trace of resentment flashing in her eyes. She looked at Lan Yunyan fiercely, turned around and left the room.
Lan Yunyan watched Lan Mengyan leave without a trace of relief. She knew that Lan Mengyan would not let it go and would definitely cause trouble for her again in the future.
After Lan Mengyan left, Lan Yunyan was secretly alert. She knew that Lan Mengyan would never give up and would definitely find an opportunity to cause trouble.
Old Master Lan looked at Lan Yunyan, his eyes full of concern.
"Yunyan, Mengyan is a spoiled child, don't take it to heart. If she causes you trouble again, come and tell grandpa." said Grandpa Lan.
Lan Yunyan smiled slightly and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I won't let her succeed."
In the following days, Lan Yunyan continued to enjoy spending time with her grandfather.
She accompanied her grandfather for a walk in the garden, telling him interesting stories in the forest, and the laughter of the grandfather and grandson echoed in the air.
However, Lan Mengyan would not let her go so easily. After Lan Mengyan returned to her room, she became more and more angry. She felt that her position in the Lan Mansion had been seriously challenged.
She decided to teach Lan Yunyan a profound lesson and let her know who the real chosen one was.
So, Lan Mengyan began to contact people from Baiyin Palace frequently, plotting a new conspiracy.
Lan Yunyan noticed Lan Mengyan's unusual behavior. She found that Lan Mengyan often whispered with some strangers in the corner of the mansion with a mysterious look on her face.
With her keen intuition, Lan Yunyan concluded that Lan Mengyan must be planning something unspeakable.
