Chapter 1137 - The Offer Stands (1/2)
While Hua Lin Rong had stayed at home back when the trial against the demon-hunting sects was held and only his father had gone to the Jian Yi Sect to support their side, the two Huo brothers had been there that day and helped guard against the Chun Feng Sect. Thus, they did know that Xin Lan had been there. And now that he reminded them of it, they also remembered how their Master hadn't said anything when he spoke of knowing the dragon king. In fact, she hadn't even seemed surprised. Most likely, there was really some truth in his words. The two of them weren't happy but there was nothing they could do other than pursing their lips and glaring at him.
Xin Lan didn't think about it any further and just turned back to Hua Lin Yu and his older brother. ”Well, the offer still stands. If the two of you want to go to the dragon realm, then I will bring you there. I do think that it would be a good idea to talk with your parents first though. Time in the dragon realm and the mortal realm is flowing differently. Even if we went there for only a day, a year would go by over here. That is something you can't just decide on your own.”
The two of them nodded, not too anxious to go immediately. Anyway, Xin Lan would likely stay around for a while so there was no reason to hurry. They could just take it slowly and go when they had prepared enough. Anyway, when they went, they wanted to make the most of this trip.
While they didn't want to rush, Hua Lin Rong still couldn't help but at least inquire a little further. ”Well, if we go to the dragon realm, then where can you bring us?”
Xin Lan smiled, a hint of satisfaction showing on his face. ”Wherever you want to go. I don't think there's any place I couldn't bring you to. As I said, my status isn't low. Even if you want to see the dragon king's palace, it wouldn't be a problem to bring you there.”
He didn't even need to hear Hua Lin Rong's answer to know that he was completely on board with that idea. His eyes were sparkling and he looked very much like he wanted to become sworn brothers with him right the next moment.
On the other hand, Hua Lin Yu was having different thoughts. ”To be honest, while it would nice to see the palace, I would like to visit your place much more.” He reached out and grabbed Xin Lan's arm, giving him a pleading look. The dragon king's palace was definitely something very interesting. And if they had some time to travel around and see different things, then he would want to go there. But, to him, it was the most important to use this trip to get closer to Xin Lan. Thus, he wanted to see where he had lived before. Or maybe even the city where he had originally been born. That would be much more interesting.
Xin Lan brushed through his hair, giving him a faint smile. ”We can go and look at everything that you want. I don't mind if we just stay for a few hours or a few days but I'd also be up to remaining in the dragon realm even for a few weeks or months. It will depend on how long the two of you want it to be.”
Hua Lin Yu smiled happily and nodded his head. ”Alright, then we can visit both.”
Hua Lin Rong was also fired up and got to his feet. ”Alright, then we should go home and speak about it with our parents. We'll see what they think about it. Then we can start planning.”
Xin Lan nodded, pulling Hua Lin Yu to his feet. ”Alright, then let's go. Anyway, we've already spent quite some time here. When we're back, your family will likely soon start with that banquet.”
