260: A prominent reputation

Jiang Lan had no intention of wasting time with these people.

Previously, he had done those things purely to let them resolve it.

But he hadn't expected that these people outside simply couldn't understand human speech.

Then there was no point in him saying these things.

"What do you mean?"

"How come I feel like this guy is even stronger than those two?"

"Isn't that obvious?"

"Don't you know Jiang Lan's abilities?"

"You can ignore what happened before, but this has exceeded expectations. If it continues like this, you might be unprepared later."

If one were to ask what happened before, then what was happening now was a complete contrast.

"You mean to say that Jiang Lan arranged it this way on purpose, and it's also different from before. I feel like something isn't right, but I can't quite pinpoint it. Moreover, he seems to have figured out the current situation a long time ago."

At his words, the guy who had been calm just a moment ago became incredibly conflicted.

"Since that's the case, then we still shouldn't fight him."

But before they could finish speaking, they were scattered by the spiritual Qi released by Jiang Lan.

"You've come all this way, and you still want to leave? What do you think this place is? Some shabby spot where you can come and go as you please?"

At first, he really didn't take this matter seriously, even feeling it was unnecessary. But now, just one look made him feel that these people were too conceited.

Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong were utterly shocked by his side.

Putting everything else aside, with Jiang Lan's current abilities, they could only express their admiration.

"How about we stand a bit further away? Let's not get in his way, after all, he's made it quite clear."

Upon hearing this, he quickly nodded. While his words were true, this was indeed different from before.

"How come I feel like you're more concerned about this? If you ask me, even if Jiang Lan is strong, he still has to consider other situations, right?"

The few people below were discussing, actually intending to badmouth him. However, they were dealt with by two people before they even got close.

"If you want to badmouth Mr. Jiang Lan, I'm afraid you'll have to get past us, even though we don't have very strong abilities."

The two spoke calmly. The people who heard this retreated awkwardly. They had only been whispering, not intending to draw attention, but now they couldn't even leave.

After clearing out the surrounding people, Jiang Lan came over, and there was a hint of speechlessness in his eyes as he looked at Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong.

"Next time there are people like this, deal with them sooner. Don't let me see trouble. We haven't even entered the Ancient Secret Realm yet, and there's already so much trouble. By then, it probably won't be your turn to be with me."

Hearing Jiang Lan's words, the two quickly nodded, not daring to utter a single word of nonsense.

After all, he made a valid point, and this was different from previous situations.

Moreover, they were indeed looking for trouble, so it was normal for them to be dealt with.

The two returned to the nearby Inn.

And the people who came to cause trouble below naturally heard about the situation here.

It was unclear who spread the rumor.

It was said that if one could defeat Jiang Lan here, then entering the Secret Realm would definitely go smoothly.

As soon as this rumor spread, Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong were incredibly busy.

"Are they sick? No matter what, they shouldn't be looking for trouble."

"Exactly."

"What is Mr. Jiang Lan's strength? Isn't that clear? They actually still want to do such strange things."

The two fought exhaustively, and in the end, they were truly subdued by them.

These people only saw the two as obstructive obstacles.

They used all their might, wanting to deal with the two.

But in the end, not only were they not dealt with, they were instead taught a lesson.

Meanwhile, Jiang Lan was comprehending new techniques.

At this moment, after feeling this powerful force, he relaxed quite a bit.

"You guys, you actually want to lay hands on Jiang Lan? I think you're truly tired of living."

Wang Wenshan waved his hand, directly dealing with the guy.

The opponent hadn't even figured out what was happening before he couldn't stand anymore.

"I felt something was off just now. Why does the surrounding pressure feel stronger?"

By the time they noticed the anomaly...

It was already too late, because Jiang Lan had, at some unknown point, stood on the roof. Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong also instinctively dodged.

Although they were cooperating with Jiang Lan, Jiang Lan's abilities were not something they could contend with.

So, honestly dodging was the most important thing.

As they dodged, those who wanted to cause trouble were directly turned to ashes.

Some people hadn't even realized what had happened before they were already dead?

Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong both gasped, then quickly dodged, fearing being too close and getting caught in the aftermath.

"Why are you two running so far away?"

"Do I look that weak in your eyes?"

Hearing Jiang Lan say this, the two quickly shook their heads.

"No, that's not it. It's mainly that they were indeed a bit annoying. We didn't expect you to personally intervene."

If Wang Wenshan had initially held some other opinions about Jiang Lan, now he was completely deferential to Jiang Lan.

He wished he could push anything good towards him.

Xu Lindong, by his side, was almost the same. He had initially only thought Jiang Lan had some strength.

He thought that as long as they could get what they wanted through cooperation, that would be enough.

As for other things, he didn't really care.

But now, this was truly beyond expectation, completely different from what he had thought before.

So now, he naturally had to be more vigilant.

Looking at their cautious demeanor, Jiang Lan couldn't help but laugh.

However, after this commotion, Jiang Lan had truly become famous.

Before, everyone had only suspected Jiang Lan's identity.

Now, knowing that Jiang Lan was in this area, some people only dared to stay far away.

They feared getting caught in the crossfire or other situations if they got too close.

After all, the current situation was already very difficult to comprehend.

"I thought you weren't that afraid of him."

Wang Wenshan went downstairs to the Inn to eat, and hearing them discuss, he couldn't help but tease them.

Those people were furious after hearing this, wanting to say why this person had the right to speak like that.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Who said we're not afraid of him? It's precisely because we're so afraid of him that we're helpless now. Don't try to flatter us here."

"Exactly, we've already done our best."

Wang Wenshan laughed again.

However, because of these incidents, no one competed with them for the first entry qualification.

So later, they directly cleared this area.

After obtaining the token, they waited at the entrance of the Ancient Secret Realm.

After all, such an opportunity was rare, and no one wanted to miss out on such a good chance.

"This doesn't seem to be a problem, but why does it feel so eerie here?"
