Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Chapter 1775

If Li Lan and Luo Lianyu were of similar strength, that would be one thing, but now, Li Lan is clearly far superior to Luo Lianyu. Under such circumstances, An Youhe was shocked that having Luo Lianyu as a candidate for Medicine Envoy was no different from giving him a piece of junk.

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder and the others immediately panicked. The Grand Elder, sweating profusely, said:

"Reporting to the Special Envoy, this was absolutely not our intention... Although Fellow Daoist Xuanyi has awakened and recovered, he has never experienced a battle before. We have indeed underestimated his potential. It is all our fault for being old and blind, and we beg the Special Envoy's forgiveness!"

Others also chimed in:

"Yes, we really didn't know that Fellow Daoist Xuanyi was so powerful. We have truly misunderstood."

"Please forgive my sins, Special Envoy, and please, Fellow Daoist Xuanyi, do not hold it against me!"

Xinghan snorted coldly, turned to look at Yuenu, and asked, "Senior Sister, what should we do next?"

Yue Nu did not want to cause any further trouble, so she said calmly, "Xuan Yi will come with us. As for the Dark Nether River, although Xuan Yi's talent is so strong that it is not something that ordinary people can see, you still failed to notice it... You should all stay in seclusion for three months to reflect on your mistakes."

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, being confined to one's room for three months to reflect on one's mistakes is already a very mild punishment.

"Thank you, Special Envoy. I will certainly lead the people of the Dark River tribe to repent and reflect on our mistakes!"

The elder bowed deeply.

Yue Nu said calmly, "Let's go."

Immediately, Li Lan left with them. The Grand Elder wanted to say something to ease the tension between himself and Li Lan, but in the end, he could only sigh.

What's the point of saying anything more now that things have come to this?

Watching Li Lan board the small boat and see their figures completely disappear into the mist, everyone felt uneasy.

"Elder, will Xuanyi hold a grudge against us after this?"

"He comes from the Dark River after all. No matter what, he can't possibly turn against us."

"The past is just that—the past. Even if he was a master of the Dark River in his previous life, he has already started anew in this life. We are no different from enemies who obstruct our path to enlightenment. If he has a single thought in the future... we will find it hard to bear!"

Everyone was extremely worried.

Even if we face retribution and punishment, so what?

The Grand Elder shook his head and smiled bitterly: "We were blinded by greed. Now that he's gone, there's no chance to make amends!"

His words filled the elders with even greater shame.

If they hadn't entered Luo Lianyu's room and been misled by their own selfishness, they probably wouldn't have made such a mistake.

"No... there's still one more chance!"

Suddenly, the Grand Elder seemed to have thought of something. He slapped his forehead and said, "Someone, pass on my order to confer upon A-Ling the title of Holy Maiden of the Dark River!"

Upon hearing this, everyone instantly realized what was happening.

"Yes, Little Aling!"

"This senior was awakened by A-Ling with her blood, and he also cares for A-Ling quite a bit. Even if he doesn't care about the Dark River, he won't forget little A-Ling."

"As long as Little Aling is here, the Dark River will remain safe!"

Everyone started to speak!

The news sent shockwaves through the entire Dark River.

"Ah Ling, what makes her so special? She's a half-superhuman!"

"Indeed, her potential and aptitude are not the strongest in the Dark River. How can she convince the masses?"

"How did she suddenly gain the approval of so many elders?"

Many people in the Dark River were unconvinced and puzzled.

Anyone who dares to discuss this matter will be killed!

The elders, however, issued even stricter orders, and immediately the entire Dark River fell silent, with no one daring to say anything more.

"I heard it's related to Lord Xuanyi. Lord Xuanyi has gained the approval of the depths of Dengdao Mountain..."

"What? If that's the case, then it makes sense..."

"Little Aling is really lucky!"

Various rumors continued to circulate, and after learning the truth, everyone was filled with envy and jealousy.

Little Aling, once a half-human being, had absolutely no status in the Dark River, and could even be considered nothing more than livestock. But now, she has transformed herself and gained such a status...
