"Su Ming, you're back?!"
Upon seeing the pretty little girl beside Su Ming, the previously excited Nan Qiuqiu instantly froze.
Upon hearing the news of Su Ming's return, she, who had still been cultivating at home, had run over at the very first moment.
Her purpose was simply to be able to see Su Ming, chat with him, and deepen their relationship.
That's right, at this moment Nan Qiuqiu also had a certain sense of crisis.
Where did this sense of crisis come from?
Naturally, it came from Nan Qiuqiu and her mother, who had been sent to the Heavenly Dragon Sect some time ago.
Upon learning that Su Ming had specifically saved the girl's family and had people send them to the Heavenly Dragon Sect—
Nan Qiuqiu had also sought the other party out at the first opportunity to confirm some matters.
She had to admit that the girl of a similar age to her was indeed very pretty.
This had also caused a trace of frustration to rise in Nan Qiuqiu's heart, along with no small amount of anxiety.
Because her family elders had once said to her that wild flowers always smelled sweeter than garden flowers.
Therefore, Nan Qiuqiu suspected that her fiance Su Ming might be the same way, wouldn't he?
At the very beginning, her thought had been to drive Jiang Nannan's family out of the Heavenly Dragon Sect to completely cut off such a threat.
But in the end, she was stopped by her own mother, Nan Shuishui.
After a reminder from her mother, Nan Qiuqiu recovered her sanity and knew what she should do.
Therefore, during this period of time, she had even learned many things a virtuous wife and good mother should do in the future.
Damn it, I haven't even dealt with that Jiang Nannan yet? Why did Su Ming bring back another girl?
And... how can this girl look so pretty? Her threat level is simply too high!!
Although Nan Qiuqiu's movements had frozen, all of her diverted attention was placed entirely on Lan Fozu.
She had to admit that at the very first sight of Lan Fozu, she had also been amazed.
Jiang Nannan was very pretty too, but she at most generated a bit of frustration for her, and she still believed she held a huge advantage in monopolizing Su Ming.
However, the little girl in front of her was just...
I can't panic, I can't panic, I have to hold my ground.
Nan Qiuqiu took a deep breath in her heart and immediately calmed down.
Her face bloomed with an enthusiastic smile as she asked, "Su Ming, who is this little younger sister?"
"Lan Fozu. She's a little girl I happened to save when I was returning home."
"I saw that she was too pitiful, so I took her as a younger sister and brought her back to the Heavenly Dragon Sect together."
After briefly explaining Lan Fozu's background, Su Ming then introduced Nan Qiuqiu to Lan Fozu, "Little Lan, this is my fiancee, Nan Qiuqiu."
Mom really was right, claiming the title is a good thing.
Listening to Su Ming's unhesitating introduction, the emotions in Nan Qiuqiu's heart improved a lot.
At the same time, this also caused her internal fighting spirit to soar.
So what if the threat was large?
As long as she, Nan Qiuqiu, worked hard enough, she could successfully manage her man and monopolize Su Ming all by herself.
So this is Older Brother's fiancee? She's not much to look at. Lan Fozu's expression remained unchanged, but in her heart she was gnashing her teeth.
In her view, how could someone like this be her older brother's fiancee?
In reality, Nan Qiuqiu was also a first-rate beauty.
It was just that when facing Lan Fozu, she appeared somewhat lacking.
Under normal circumstances, the gentle and kind-natured Lan Fozu would certainly have been willing to praise Nan Qiuqiu a little.
But this was out of the question now; she and Nan Qiuqiu were competitors!!
Mercy to the enemy was cruelty to oneself.
"Since she's your younger sister, Su Ming, then she's Nan Qiuqiu's younger sister."
Nan Qiuqiu said with a smile, acting like such a considerate and good older sister.
"If you run into any trouble in the future, Younger Sister, just come find Older Sister."
"If Older Sister can't solve it, then we'll find your brother-in-law together..."
Yet as she spoke, it was entirely a knife hidden behind a smile.
She directly employed a bait-and-switch tactic, forcibly altering identities in an attempt to drive a wedge between Su Ming and Lan Fozu.
Hearing this, Lan Fozu said weakly, "I won't trouble Older Sister to worry."
Seeing this situation, Nan Qiuqiu felt a surge of joy, believing Lan Fozu was merely all show and no substance.
Yet immediately afterward, Lan Fozu's tone sharply shifted, and she retorted without hesitation:
"Even though some things shouldn't be said, to keep my older brother from suffering wrongs, I can only play the villain and say them."
"Older Sister, you already have my older brother as your fiance, so why do you have a new fiance out there?"
"Could it be that Older Sister wants one at home and one outside?"
"Judging by this, not only are you greedy enough, Older Sister, but the Earth Dragon Sect also harbors quite the ambition..."
By following at Su Ming's side, Lan Fozu had learned many things.
Therefore, when she launched her counterattack now, she could be said to have reeled it off with ease.
"You!..." For a moment, Nan Qiuqiu was left speechless.
She could only say that by holding the home-court advantage and the righteous banner of their engagement, she had underestimated the gold content of her opponent.
She failed to realize the terror of an opponent who had begun a yandere transformation.
Facing such 'venomous' words, she was somewhat unable to hold her ground.
This... Watching this scene, Su Ming's eyelids twitched wildly.
Although he had transmigrated to Douluo Continent for over six years and already had a certain psychological preparation for the precociousness of the children in this world—
and had also witnessed quite a bit of it—
today's scene still refreshed Su Ming's horizons all over again.
Especially Lan Fozu's transformation, which left Su Ming completely dumbfounded.
How did such a good-natured, gentle, and lovely younger sister of mine turn into this kind of appearance?
Originally, Su Ming had made a rough deduction about Lan Fozu's emotional changes.
Now it seemed he had still underestimated her.
Lan... Su Ming had originally intended to say something.
Yet upon meeting Lan Fozu's suddenly innocent, pitiful little expression, he had no choice but to let it go.
The moment he remembered that the only person Lan Fozu could rely on now was him, and the moment he thought of the Demon Empress's entrustment, Su Ming truly had no choice but to indulge her.
Titles? Who doesn't have one! A small wave of pride arose in Lan Fozu's heart.
Although uttering those vicious words—which she had compiled after reading books for a long time—to Nan Qiuqiu upon their very first meeting left her kind-natured self feeling deeply guilty inside—
matters had already reached this point, and she could only proceed this way.
On the matter of fighting for Older Brother, Lan Fozu was unwilling to retreat or give up.
Nan Qiuqiu had the idea of driving away other competitors and trying to monopolize Su Ming, but did Lan Fozu not have it as well?
The mindset that simply being the legitimate wife would be fine was actually just a fallback stance, taking ten thousand steps back.
Before the hope of monopolizing him completely vanished, Lan Fozu would use her greatest effort to fight for it.
"Little Lan, quickly apologize to Older Sister." At this moment, Su Ming finally spoke up to express his stance.
It was true that his heart ached for Lan Fozu, but he definitely had to try his best to keep the bowl of water balanced.
Nan Qiuqiu, after all, was his legitimate and proper fiancee.
Therefore, his tone wasn't very stern, but he made his attitude thoroughly clear.
This could be considered him saving face to give both sides a step down and ease the conflict.
