A coincidence?

After the news of the second breakthrough to the Purple Realm spread, the smile on Lan Jingkuang's face deepened slightly. If only one person had broken through, he couldn't be certain if it was Lan Qingyan. However, with the second person, there was no need to worry anymore. He believed that one of them must be Lan Qingyan.

"Lord Kuang, we can completely rest assured now, and we can proceed with our plan directly," Lan Kaicheng said with a smile. They had been waiting for so long just to get a definite answer. They couldn't afford any more delays in promoting Lan Qingyan to the position of the family head.

"Once we have a new family head, the status and influence of the old family head will weaken significantly, and then we can truly be at ease," Elder Lan Yongtai added.

"How is the investigation into Baili Hongzhuang's identity going? Is there any progress?" Lan Jingkuang's eyebrows furrowed. With the Lan family's power, it shouldn't be too difficult to find out about someone's background. However, they encountered more obstacles than he had anticipated when investigating Baili Hongzhuang.

Lan Kaicheng shook his head helplessly, "We only managed to gather the most basic information. All we know is that Baili Hongzhuang became a disciple of Tian Gang Sect through the assessment competition. As for how she became the Young Palace Master of Wuji Palace, it seems to have happened out of thin air, without any clues."

"And is there any connection between Baili Hongzhuang and Lan Yunchao?" Lan Hongtai nodded. "No information, as if it doesn't exist."

"Lord Kuang, Wuji Palace has only been established for a short period of time, not more than ten years. Back when these things happened, Wuji Palace didn't even exist. It's impossible for Lan Yunchao to have entrusted Baili Hongzhuang to someone from Wuji Palace. Moreover, the Palace Master of Wuji Palace is a self-made person who suddenly rose to prominence. Lan Yunchao shouldn't have any acquaintance with him," Lan Kaicheng tentatively looked at Lan Jingkuang. "Could this just be a coincidence?"

In fact, other than the striking resemblance between Baili Hongzhuang and Lan Yunchao, there was no other evidence linking them. Lan Jingkuang looked at Lan Kaicheng and Lan Yongtai in front of him, remained silent for a moment, and said, "Not being able to find any information is not necessarily bad news. If we can't find it, then I believe the family head won't be able to find it either. Even if he is convinced in his heart, it won't be of any use."

"Indeed, the old family head has always been concerned about Lan Yunchao, but it's completely meaningless. Besides, even if Baili Hongzhuang is truly Lan Yunchao's daughter, the old family head cannot nominate her as the new family head. She has no foundation in the Lan family at all," Lan Kaicheng's face showed a smile. The details of Baili Hongzhuang were not their main concern anymore. As long as Lan Qingyan successfully broke through to the Purple Realm, they could ignore everything else.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Lan Jingkuang's lips. "Baili Hongzhuang won't exist in this world for much longer..."

Yue Siqing had informed him days ago that the poison was ready. Once Baili Hongzhuang left the Ice and Snow God's Pool and fell victim to the poison, the threat would be completely eliminated.
