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

Li Lan then left.

After he left.

Zhao Tanyue watched Li Lan's carriage drive away through the window, her cold and beautiful eyes seemingly filled with emotion and complexity.

"Master, what's wrong?"

Her female disciple, Xixia, asked a question.

"Pity."

"pity?"

"He is courageous, insightful, and exceptionally intelligent, yet he has nowhere to go in the martial arts world. It is a pity that such a talented person is envied by the heavens."

Zhao Tanyue shook her head, deeply regretful.

In her view, martial arts is Li Lan's greatest pain and an insurmountable barrier!

“Go to Zuiyue Tower and tell them that the favor they owed me back then can now be repaid. I want their dual cultivation technique to improve their physical constitution.”

Zhao Tanyue suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, both Yanqiu and Xixia were taken aback.

They all knew that the Taiyi Sect owed Zhao Tanyue a huge favor back then, which Zhao Tanyue had never mentioned all these years, but now she was using it to ask for a cultivation technique.

She herself didn't need this cultivation technique.

Was it for... Li Lan?

"Master, is it worth it for him?"

Yanqiu couldn't help but ask.

"I, Zhao Tanyue, owe no one anything in my life except for Li Lan, who owes me many favors now."

She said, "If you owe someone a favor, you should repay it."

The female disciple beside her, Xixia, muttered, "Master, you don't need to cultivate with him. What right does he have..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Tanyue couldn't help but rub her forehead and said, "You silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"I just... want to give him the cultivation technique!"

Even the icy beauty was speechless at this moment.

Xi Xia chuckled and said, "Oh, I see. I thought you had fallen for him, Master. But Master, you're getting on in years, it's time to find us a grandmaster!"

"You girl!"

Zhao Tanyue was helpless, but she was extremely clever. Suddenly she realized that Xi Xia was always quirky and clever, not foolish. How could she have misunderstood her meaning? Xi Xia was clearly saying that on purpose to cheer her up.

Seeing that the Empress was troubled, she wanted to help her relieve her worries, but her disciples had also seen how hard she had been working these past few days.

Thinking of this, she felt a warmth in her heart and couldn't help but smile. She deliberately said, "Alright, you all cultivate well. One day, defeat Lin Ruoxue, snatch her away, and give her to Master. Master will take her."

"Oh, Master, you should just stay single forever!"

Xi Xia said, "Even if Lin Ruoxue retires from the martial arts world, I will never catch up with her in my entire life!"

Seeing her master's smiling face, Xixia said, "I'm going to Zuiyue Tower!"

……

The Great Test of Literary Skills!

It happens today.

Early in the morning, Tie Poshan personally drove Li Lan and Lin Ruoshi to the examination hall.

As soon as I arrived outside the examination hall, a commotion could be heard.

"Everyone, Li Lan has arrived!"

"That so-called Poet Immortal?"

"What kind of 'Poet Immortal' is he? He's nothing but a fraud and a charlatan!"

Which scholar in the world is not proud and arrogant? It is common for scholars to look down on each other. With the help of someone in the shadows, Li Lan, who married a proud woman from heaven and was also known as the "Poet Immortal", really became the target of everyone's criticism!

In particular, Xu Ruyu and others spread rumors about how Li Lan plagiarized "Spring River Flower Moon Night," and during this period, Li Lan had truly aroused public outrage.

Hearing the curses outside, Li Lan calmly lifted the carriage curtain and stepped out.

Lin Ruoshi felt a chill run down his spine when he saw everyone's gaze.

Lin Ruobing, playing the role of Lin Ruoxue, also came along as the wife. At this moment, she frowned slightly and whispered, "Stay close to me, no one can hurt you."

Li Lan was surprised; this was the first time in all their years of marriage that he had heard Lin Ruobing say something caring to him.

Without any hesitation, he simply extended his right hand and said, "Take my arm."

Lin Ruobing glared at him, secretly biting her little tiger teeth, but still reached out and took Li Lan's arm.

"You are Li Lan?"

"I wonder where you copied your poem 'Spring River Flower Moon Night' from?"

"The name of the Poet Immortal has been widely known for a long time, but unfortunately I have been waiting outside the Lin residence for many days, while you are as cowardly as a mouse and have retreated into hiding!"
