159 – Interlude, Jialan's Dislike

Boring, so boring.

Jialan, who has been watching from the sidelines, puckered her lips, feeling unhappy from the bottom of her heart. Well, she dislikes boredom.

Strictly speaking, Jialan is not a Vajrayana person.

She is the adopted daughter of a certain Vajrayana Sect Master.

She grew up in Vajrayana, learnt Vajrayana martial arts, and was allocated Vajrayana resources.

After the death of her adoptive father, the new Vajrayana Sect Master didn't abandon her — she only had Earth Realm cultivation base at the time, which is dispensable for the huge Vajrayana.

With nowhere to go, she stayed in Vajrayana.

She didn't know at the time that the new Vajrayana Sect Master was purely interested in her talent, which is why he didn't expel the outsider.

Jialan, who has exceptional talent, grew under the wing of Vajrayana. First a Heaven Realm master, and then a Grandmaster — it only took her 100 years to become the youngest Grandmaster in history.

After becoming a Grandmaster and obtaining the t.i.tle of Asura'er, she still didn't leave Vajrayana. She isn't an ingrate.

Despite being an outsider, she became the guardian of Vajrayana — Asura'er's status is really peculiar.

But Jialan dislikes boredom. Vajrayana, which advocates asceticism, is a boring place. When the disciples don't recite scriptures and cultivate body and spirit, they study and practice martial arts.

The dull people and dull place make her feel like she's suffocating.

Occasionally, Jialan would lie on the window sill of her room and peer at the birds that happened to land on a branch, listen to them sing, and watch them flap their wings, thinking it would be nice if she was a bird. If she could be free like a bird and do as she pleases, would it no longer be boring?

However, Vajrayana needs her. She can't up and leave.

This is not to say that Vajrayana cannot do without her. However, a large part of Vajrayana's power stems from her — a Grandmaster. Once she leaves Vajrayana, the existing balance of power in the Western Regions will be broken.

In fact, she doesn't have much affection for Vajrayana. But that is the place where her only relative — even though they are not related by blood — is buried. Moreover, before her adoptive father died, he instructed her, “look after Vajrayana, don't let it be destroyed by anyone”. Therefore, she cannot watch it collapse and fall apart.

Her adoptive father gave her everything that she has now, so she'll endure the boredom and stay in Vajrayana until she pays off the debt. She has stayed for 100 years already.

When will it be paid off? Jialan doesn't know.

In 100 years, Jialan has left Vajrayana only a handful of times, for fear that if she looks away, it will be gone. Well, just like her adoptive father. In just a blink of an eye, her adoptive father abandoned her and left.

However, her patience is reaching its limit.

She can hardly bear the boredom at Vajrayana.

It was at this time that Jialan unexpectedly learned that the current Vajrayana Sect Master plans to send people to intervene in Hua Dynasty's Martial Demon Realm Trial by Fire.

— this may alleviate a bit of my boredom!

Once this idea sprouted in her mind, it could no longer be restrained! After thinking about it day and night, Jialan finally looked forward to the day the Martial Demon Real Trial by Fire group she organized without Vajrayana's permission sets off. Despite the opposition of the current Sect Master, she resolutely left Vajrayana holy land, which is full of gold statues, and came to Martial Demon Realm.

Jialan had high expectations for this “trip”.

However, she was disappointed.

The Western Regions is a chaotic place, where regime change is frequent. Finally, there was a fairly powerful regime, but it was easily defeated by Hua Dynasty. Not only is the political situation in the Western Regions chaotic, but the Martial World is as well.

Is there anything that isn't chaotic in a chaotic world? No, there isn't.

The battle that takes place at Mirror Moon Lake right before her eyes is really dull, really dull indeed.

What she was looking forward to was not this ordinary scene, but something more intense, more exhaustive, more capable of stirring her heart.

For example, a fight between Heaven Realm masters, or an all-out war between Hua Dynasty and Martial Demon Realm.
