Ao Yan looked at the two men in front of her, who were sinking into stupor, with knitted brows.

Particularly when she saw Ao Cheng stealing out the fine wine Ao Wan Zhen had kept hidden, her fists clenched tighter, eager to teach him a lesson.

Just as she was about to move, Ao Cheng rolled over, muttering to himself.

“Jiang Xiaobai, if you can really help my sister out of this trouble, I, Ao Cheng will acknowledge only you as my brother-in-law…”

Upon hearing this, Ao Yan’s anger intensified, and her expression darkened.

“You shameless thing, how dare you utter such words?” Ao Yan snorted inwardly.

Before she could react, Jiang Xiaobai lying beside them broke into laughter.

“Ao Cheng, Ao Cheng, cut your nonsense… with your sister’s fish-faced look, it’d be ghostly if she fancied me…”

“And you want me to be your only brother-in-law, get out, I’d be lucky if Ao

Yan doesn’t kill me…”

At this moment, Ao Yan’s face had turned completely dark.

Her fist loosened after being clenched multiple times, and she took a deep breath.

“Wait till this is over, I’ll show you two.”

With a cold snort, Ao Yan raised her hand and Jiang Xiaobai straightened up.

It’s not going to work if he continues lying here, he should be taken back.

Just as this thought crossed her mind, Jiang Xiaobai lazily opened his eyes and saw Ao Yan’s cold face.

“Ah, the wife is here…”

“Hehe, let me tell you, I assure you that Ao Zheng will not succeed this time, he just…just…”

Jiang Xiaobai trailed off into sleep.

Ao Yan gritted her teeth, “Finish your sentence!”

After waiting for a while with no response from Jiang Xiaobai, she had to swallow down her anger and take him back to the small courtyard.

The night passed by, and the sunlight trickled into the room when Ao Yan came back to her senses.

All through last night, Ao Yan had been watching the sleeping Jiang Xiaobai, with the constant replay of the various things Jiang Xiaobai had done or said.

Sometimes it would drive her crazy, yet other times, she felt a sweet sensation in her heart.

Such a feeling was quite peculiar.

With blurry eyes, Jiang Xiaobai rubbed his aching head, slowly sitting up.

“Ao Cheng is such a troublemaker, the Guru clan is arriving today, he had me drinking yesterday, luckily I sobered up. Otherwise, I might have been killed by the Guru people without even knowing.”

Jiang Xiaobai murmured to himself while clutching his head. Just as he finished talking, he realized something was wrong and quickly turned his head.

Ao Yan was sitting there, drinking tea and watching him calmly.

“Ahaha, did you bring me back last night?”

“You walked back yourself.”

Ao Yan contemptuously said, a teasing smile creeping back onto her face, “You’ve been hiding it well, cabal, pretending even though you’ve been given the teachings of a master?”

Huh?

Jiang Xiaobai froze, he had never mentioned these matters to Ao Yan.

“Did I blurt it out when I was drunk last night?”

This thought popped into his mind, and Jiang Xiaobai’s heart nearly stopped. He wouldn’t mind so much if he blabbed nonsense, but if he accidentally revealed information about his friendly system, he was done for.

However, no matter how much he tried to recall last night’s memory, it was a blank slate.

Jiang Xiaobai was momentarily at loss at what to do.

“Alright, enough with that act. Everyone has their secrets, I won’t pry into yours. But since you’ve gained the teachings of a powerful individual, you can continue your practice.”

“If you don’t wish to leave after this incident, you can continue to stay in the Dragon Valley.”

Ao Yan stated flatly.

Only then did Jiang Xiaobai come to his senses. Probably, he was drunk last night and ended up spilling beans to Ao Yan. But it seemed she only knew the excuse he used to swindle Ao Cangtian.

Relieved at this thought, Jiang Xiaobai replied, “Alright, if you don’t mind, I’d love to stay in Dragon Valley.” He grinned at Ao Yan.

Ao Yan maintained her calm demeanor, her emotions indecipherable.

“I haven’t been in good spirits lately, go prepare something for me to eat.”

Ao Yan ordered indifferently.

“Alright, wait for me!”

Jiang Xiaobai immediately got up from the ground and rushed to the kitchen to cook.

Ao Yan remained seated in her chair, but a short while after Jiang Xiaobai left, she broke out in a soft chuckle.

No one knew what she was thinking.

After preparing and finishing the meal together, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly looked at Ao Yan mysteriously.

“Come, I’ll take you to a good place which will cheer you up.”

Ao Yan was curious too, and with nothing else to do, she followed Jiang Xiaobai.

Atop a mountain peak within the Dragon Valley, Ao Yan watched with a cold expression as Jiang Xiaobai tinkered with something in front of her.

She saw Jiang Xiaobai hammering away, but had no idea what he was doing.

Standing here watching Jiang Xiaobai hammer away for over an hour had already tried her patience.

Just when Ao Yan was about to lose her patience, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly stood up, clapped his hands, and turned around with a beaming smile.

“It’s done!”

Jiang Xiaobai declared cheerfully. He then propped up the contraption he had been tinkering with from the ground.

It was an unusually strange contraption, constructed entirely out of wood. It had a large circular board in the front and another at the back. In the middle were two cushion-like seats, underneath which were two wooden cross-boards.

If a person who hailed from the same place as Jiang Xiaobai saw this contraption, they would’ve exclaimed in surprise.

A wooden bicycle?

“What is it?” Ao Yan asked in surprise.

“Haven’t seen it before?”

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, “Come, let me demonstrate.”

Laughing, Jiang Xiaobai sat on the bicycle that he had hand-crafted. Despite being made of wood, practitioners like themselves found no difficulty riding it.

Moreover, the wood in this world was remarkably resilient, so a bicycle chain made of wood would never break due to excessive force.

Then, Ao Yan saw Jiang Xiaobai getting on the bicycle and leisurely pedaling along.

In an instant, her eyes nearly popped out of her sockets. She stared at Jiang Xiaobai in disbelief.

An object entirely made of wood, and it could move while carrying a person?

“This thing is called a bicycle, a special product of my hometown.” Jiang

Xiaobai said lightly.

“Bicycle?”

Ao Yan raised an eyebrow. Her eyes had already shifted from initial shock to eagerness. She noticed how Jiang Xiaobai was riding the bike and wanted to try it herself.

Jiang Xiaobai rode the bicycle around Ao Yan before stepping down and pushing the bicycle towards her.

“Want to try?”

Ao Yan’s eyes lit up. Though she really wanted to hop onto it right away, she managed to maintain her cool demeanor and posture.

She lightly nodded, reaching out to grab the handlebar of the bike, then straddled the seat cushion in the same manner as Jiang Xiaobai before, attempting to pedal and get the bike moving.

Yet, as she hadn’t experienced it before, she almost fell off after struggling to balance on her first few pedals.

A hint of embarrassment flushed her face. Was she losing to Jiang Xiaobai?

Being a Dividing the Gods practitioner, mastering a skill like riding a bicycle came naturally. It took only a few seconds for her to get the hang of it. She then began to pedal slowly..
