Graduation Gift-A Dou Sheng Corpse!

"Hehe, there's no rush. Once you get to Central Plains, you'll surely be able to make contact."

Xiao Lin did not answer Xiao Yan directly, but instead gave him a meaningful look.

Hearing Xiao Lin say this, Xiao Yan was also taken aback.

"Are you sure you'll be able to get in touch with them?"

Xiao Yan murmured to himself.

For some reason, he always felt that there was something about Supreme Elder Lin's expression that he couldn't quite put his finger on.

However, since the other party had already said that, he couldn't press the matter further.

"Yanran, what about you? If I'm not mistaken, you should make the same choice as Xiao Yan, right?"

"Yes, Supreme Elder Lin! My Nalan Family and the Xiao Household are old friends. After graduation, I will first go home, and then go to Central Plains with Xiao Yan!"

Nalan Yanran's answer did not surprise Xiao Lin.

However, after Nalan Yanran finished speaking, Xiao Lin suddenly looked at her with a half-smile.

"Huh? What's wrong, Your Supreme Elder Lin? Is there something amiss?"

Xiao Lin's gaze left Nalan Yanran somewhat bewildered.

"If I remember correctly, you two are engaged, right? What, aren't you planning to get married right after graduation?"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Lin suddenly shifted the topic to such an unrelated subject.

"Ah?"

A gasp escaped Nalan Yanran's lips involuntarily.

"Cough cough~"

Even Xiao Yan pretended to cough to cover up his embarrassment.

At the same time, because of the sudden topic, Nalan Yanran blushed and lowered her head slightly.

"Well, there's no rush..."

Even Nalan Yanran, who always appeared heroic and spirited, was no different from any Ordinary young woman when talking about her marriage.

However, despite saying that, Nalan Yanran didn't actually say the second half of her sentence aloud.

That is: if Xiao Yan insists, it's not impossible...

But as a girl, she naturally wouldn't say such things on her own initiative!

"Well, Supreme Elder Lin, Yanran and I haven't decided on a specific wedding date yet, so we probably don't have any plans for it in the near future."

As the other party involved in this topic, Xiao Yan also forced himself to speak.

It's true that she has no plans to get married anytime soon!

"That's right, that's what I meant too!"

Nalan Yanran wasn't exactly disappointed at the moment, since she really wasn't prepared to marry Xiao Yan.

Of course, her so-called lack of objection is contingent on Xiao Yan's insistence.

Ultimately, whether or not she was willing to go home and get married after graduation, Nalan Yanran thought it was fine either way.

"Is that so? What a pity."

Seeing their reactions, Xiao Lin nodded.

However, no one knew what he meant by "what a pity".

Perhaps it was simply a desire to have fun, or perhaps there were other reasons?

"In short, that's it! By the way, Supreme Elder Lin, do you have any plans to go to Central Plains?"

Feeling somewhat uncomfortable, Xiao Yan just wanted to quickly move on from this topic.

For some reason, when the topic of their recent marriage came up, the image that flashed through his mind wasn't just Nalan Yanran...

"Me? I'm alright. I also frequently travel between Central Plains and Jia Nan Academy. Perhaps we'll meet in an unexpected way after you arrive in Central Plains."

Xiao Lin said meaningfully.

"An unexpected way, huh? Then Yanran and I are really looking forward to that day!"

Xiao Yan's face was now full of smiles.

Supreme Elder Lin is very strong, and Xiao Yan naturally knows this!

When the Gu Clan came to pick up Xun'er, he had already learned from Xun'er that Supreme Elder Lin was suspected to be Dou Sheng Expert!

At the very least, he's High-Level Half-Saint!

This is someone he will need to look up to for a long time to come.

Such a powerful individual could indeed travel between Central Plains and Jia Nan Academy in relatively little time.

Afterward, the two continued chatting about various everyday things.

Since it was his grandson and future granddaughter-in-law in front of him, Xiao Lin did not show any impatience.

Even teasing the young couple during this time, making the two little ones blush, is quite amusing.

After all, with Xiao Yan graduating from the Jia Nan Academy, Xiao Lin will never be able to have it as easy as he does now.

The situation in Central Plains is beyond his control, even with his current strength!

Therefore, not only Xiao Yan needs to work hard to improve his strength in this process, but Xiao Lin does too!

Soon, as they chatted, the sun was about to set.

As darkness fell, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran prepared to take their leave.

It's important to understand that their visit to Xiao Lin today was indeed just a routine one, coming close to graduation.

Otherwise, the two sides wouldn't have chatted like that all day.

"Your Supreme Elder Lin, since that's the case, Yanran and I will take our leave now."

Xiao Yan also stood up at this moment, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards the direction where Xiao Lin was, and said.

Although Nalan Yanran didn't speak, she made the same gesture as Xiao Yan.

"Wait, don't rush. Since you two little ones have come to visit me today, how can I not show my appreciation? Besides, you didn't make any requests of me after you successfully passed the Trial Grounds earlier."

Then I'll take the liberty of giving you a Graduation Gift today!

Xiao Lin had a smile on his face, and before anyone knew it, he had two Storage Rings in his hands.

"Whoosh," "Whoosh"

Without waiting for their refusal, Xiao Lin flicked his finger, and the two Storage Rings landed steadily in their palms.

"Supreme Elder Lin, this..."

"Supreme Elder Lin, we are not... we cannot..."

"Alright, I never take back what I've given away! Just accept it!"

The two originally intended to return the Storage Ring, but before they could speak, Xiao Lin interrupted them with a wave of his hand.

Seeing that Xiao Lin had said so, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran had no choice but to exchange a glance and put away their respective Storage Rings.

"Thank you very much, Supreme Elder Lin!"

"We, Xiao Yan and I, will never forget the kindness of Supreme Elder Lin!"

The two expressed their gratitude to Xiao Lin once again.

"It's just a small thing, don't worry about it! Oh, by the way, Xiao Yan, what I gave you is a bit special. It has a restriction I left on it, and you can't open it until you break through to the Dou Venerable realm."

A mysterious smile graced Xiao Lin's face.

"Huh? I can only unlock it when I reach the Dou Venerable?"

Xiao Yan was taken aback for a moment, then gave it a try.

Sure enough, he found a very strong restriction on the Storage Ring, which he was unable to open even with his current strength!

However, this also proves that the items inside are definitely valuable enough!

"Alright, you'll find out in time. Now, go!"

After delivering the items, Xiao Lin waved his hand, preparing to send them away.

Goodbye! ×2

Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran left.

After watching the two figures leave the Trial Grounds, the smile on Xiao Lin's face slowly disappeared.

"Keep it up, Xiao Yan!"

After a soft whisper, Xiao Lin's figure disappeared from the Trial Grounds.

He returned to the Ancient Emperor's Cave and continued to study the Emperor Array.

As for the so-called Graduation Gift that Xiao Lin gave to Xiao Yan...

It was actually prepared for the Yao Lao.

Because the Storage Ring he had placed a restriction on contained the Dou Sheng Corpse!
