Wang Yulan Finally Joins the Peach Blossom Society

To put a perfect end to this plan, Gu Yan came to Jianghai Hospital once again.

Standing outside the room where Wang Yulan was staying, he didn't walk in immediately, but paused to compose himself.

Then, he pushed the door open.

Creak~

Entering the room, his face showed a facade of grief and bitterness.

"Yulan, I came to see you."

Gu Yan's voice was low as he turned to look at Wang Yulan who was sitting at the edge of the bed.

After resting, Wang Yulan was visibly much better than at the beginning.

However, her swollen, red eyes made it clear to everyone that she wasn't doing well.

In addition to Wang Yulan, there was someone else in the room.

"Hi, Young Master, we meet again!"

Full of energy, Tao Ying greeted Gu Yan, seemingly unaffected by the death of Wang Yulan's mother.

Seeing Gu Yan, Wang Yulan's expression revealed a faint smile, but she didn't show much emotional response.

"Gu Yan, you're here."

Her tone and facial expression were very unnatural, as if she knew something.

Seeing this scene, Gu Yan put on an act of sadness as he walked over. He sighed, "Yulan... Listen to me... About Xiao Lin, he..."

Before he could finish, Wang Yulan shook her head. Her expression did not vary, but there was a flash of murderous intent in her eyes, "Hmm, I know."

Her mother, Wang Lan's body was stored in the morgue. Due to the special nature of the case, all community organizations were ordered to stop looking into it.

She was also summoned by a department called the Martial Arts Department.

The members were all dressed in the same white uniform, offering compensation for their loss.

Since Xiao Lin was of special status, the matter could only be shelved.

When Wang Yulan heard this news, she was devastated. She felt hopeless for revenge and thought about ending her life.

But... Suddenly.

She remembered something.

It was what Tao Ying, one of the members of Peach Blossom Society, often told her.

About martial artists, the power of Flower Goddess, and the Peach Blossom Society.

She had always regarded it as a story, but now, after what happened with Xiao Lin...

It was evident that such things did exist in this world.

So she took the initiative to contact Tao Ying, agreeing to join the Peach Blossom Society.

Her goal was direct – to become stronger and slay Xiao Lin herself.

In fact, she should have been discharged and left the hospital immediately. But... She knew she wouldn't be able to fully commit to the martial arts world without a conclusive answer to a certain matter.

Seeing Wang Yulan's apparent understanding of everything, it was obvious she had learnt about the existence of martial artists in this world.

And...

"Master, Wang Yulan has agreed to join the Peach Blossom Society."

Hearing Tao Ying's message in his mind, Gu Yan almost burst into laughter.

No, no, he had to wait until he was alone to laugh, right?

On the surface, Gu Yan saw Wang Yulan hesitating to speak. His expression was filled with regret and sorrow, "I'm sorry, Yulan... Since you know everything, there is no point in hiding it from you..."

"In fact, Xiao Lin's capabilities are unfathomable, and his status is special... Even I am helpless towards him...."

As Gu Yan reached this point, he choked up at the perfect moment.

Looking at Gu Yan, Wang Yulan felt a surge of sadness in her heart yet again.

But....she could no longer continue to indulge this grief.

Her intentions were clear. She needed to improve her skills and become more powerful, all for the sake of revenge against Xiao Lin!

Therefore, in order to be able to wholeheartedly cast aside all distractions and focus solely on training for her vengeance.

Wang Yulan felt that she needed to settle things with Gu Yan.

So, "Gu Yan,"

Wang Yulan began softly. Gu Yan lifted his gaze to meet hers.

There, in Wang Yulan's serious gaze and unusually determined voice, she confessed, "I love you."

Tao Ying flinched imperceptibly at hearing this.

Was this chess piece, this pawn, brave enough to profess her love to her master?

Well, once she joined the Peach Blossom Society, she's going to have her fair share of trials!

To her confession, Gu Yan felt no ripples in his heart.

He had already noticed Wang Yulan's apparent fondness for him, yet he asked himself.

What he did was simply to help out a little financially when Wang Yulan needed it.

Maybe, to Wang Yulan, the financial aid provided at that juncture was the easiest way to touch her heart.

After all, her mother was her weakness.

Of course, Gu Yan had deliberately devised this strategy as part of his plan.

But it played well into his hand now, given that rejecting her at this point would allow her to fully commit herself to being a dutiful pawn.

So,

Gu Yan put on a show of shock before shutting his eyes, and responded decisively, "I'm sorry, you're a good person."

"I only see you as a sister."

Over here, although Wang Yulan had already known the answer,

She still felt a particular sense of loss.

It seemed like she felt a sense of relief upon receiving the answer, as though settling a massive weight off her heart.

Unfolding across Wang Yulan's face was a sweet, contented smile. "Hmm!"

Soon.

Gu Yan left.

And for a moment, only Tao Ying and Wang Yulan were left in the hospital room.

Following a period of silence.

Wang Yulan was the first one to break the silence, asking Tao Ying, "Let's go, to your... Peach Blossom Society."

Tao Ying nodded, a strange smile gracing her face, "Yulan, you will discover a brave new world."

"And once you're there, you can gain your own strength to contend with that Xiao Lin!"

Wang Yulan remained silent, only clenching her fists tightly, eyes burning with hatred for Xiao Lin.

Just wait, Xiao Lin.... I will kill you for sure!

....

...

Back in his car after leaving the hospital room,

Gu Yan's face had started to regain composure, and upon sensing Wang Yulan's resolve, he couldn't help but let a small smile curve onto his lips.

In the gloomy basement, the dim light cast onto his face, making his frosty expression even colder.

Good. That way, Wang Yulan would be fully devoted to serving his creation, the "Night".

Just wait until the Peach Blossom Society's leader is dead, and when Tao Ying succeeds the Society,

Then... The Peach Blossom Society will be his to command.

And so, the second power is obtained!

"Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh~~~~"

Gu Yan couldn’t help but cover the face and let out an evil laugh.

Old Gao, who was in front of him, frowned deeply.

Um........ How many personalities does young master have now?

Gu Yan had enough of laughing.

He calmly composed his emotions.

In his mind, he began to outline the plans to be carried out next.

According to how the scenes in the original story unfold, not long after Wang Yulan joined the Peach Blossom Society,

That specific event would be triggered...

Which is...

The "Night Raid" event!

It meant that Leng Qingqiu issued an order, commanding four members of the organization to destroy the Peach Blossom Society and the Black Tortoise Gate!!

This very plot led to the deaths of the old leader of the Peach Blossom Society and Tao Ying's brother, consequently leading to the death of everyone in the sect.

The only ones left were Tao Ying and Wang Yulan. Why these two?

Because the two beautiful girls were saved by the protagonist who showed up, Xiao Lin.

But Xiao Lin evidently doesn't have the energy to rescue these two now, given the circumstances... Tsk, tsk.

Having thought through everything, he isn't very worried anymore.

Because, based on the plot's course, the "Night" organization members will take some time to locate the Peach Blossom Society stronghold.

In the meantime, he can make some other arrangements.

Just then.

Buzz!

His phone suddenly issued a notification sound.

He picked it up and saw that the message was from Leng Ling'er.

[Brother-in-law will pick me up tomorrow! I am going to Qionglan's house!]

Qionglan? Bai Qionglan?

Gu Yan carefully recalled, and it seemed like...

Um, the other half of the Dragon King Jade is on Bai Qionglan, right?

However... Gu Yan's eyes flickered for a moment.

He still had a lot of arrangements that he hasn't perfected, and he was worried that hastily fitting together the entire Dragon King Jade might cause unexpected situations.

Like those old Dragon Kings hiding in Dragon King Mountain...

They might sense the complete Dragon King Jade pendant.

Nevertheless... it's not to say that he couldn't keep up with the pace.

He recollected Bai Qionglan and Leng Ling'er's interaction status in his mind.

His expression was a bit strange.

Was it like he thought it was? He would know if he tried it out.

Finishing contemplating, Gu Yan opened his mouth: "Old Gao... to the market!"

"Understood, young master, but why don't you let your subordinates buy groceries and send them to the Leng Family?"

"You don't understand, Old Gao. Buying groceries personally, it signifies my love for Qingqiu!"

"Very well, master........"

Old Gao, who was driving, took a deep breath. The young master's personality had returned.
