The Battle of the Throne had already disappointed Lan Jingkuang once.
If Lan Qingyan disappointed him again this time, the consequences would be unimaginable for her.
The thought of facing Lan Jingkuang's furious expression when she went out, made her lose her courage.
In fact, with the amount of energy she had absorbed, there should be no problem for her to break through to the Purple Realm.
However, even though she felt the loosening of the bottleneck, she just couldn't take that final step.
She didn't dare to go out, nor did she want to. Therefore, Lan Qingyan tightly closed her eyes and remained in the Ice and Snow Divine Pool, refusing to come out.
Baili Hongzhuang and the others, seeing Lan Qingyan in this state, couldn't help but exchange glances, their expressions filled with some confusion.
"Is Lan Qingyan afraid of not breaking through to the Purple Realm and losing face when she goes out? Is that why she's been staying like this?" Xiao Hei wondered, finding it a bit ridiculous to continue staying here at this point.
"Who knows? If she hasn't broken through, then she hasn't. She can continue cultivating after going out. The energy in the Ice and Snow Divine Pool is already depleted, so what's the point of staying here?" Baili Hongzhuang replied.
"With Lan Qingyan's arrogant and vain personality, it's normal for her not to want to go out at this moment. Moreover, Lan Jingkuang is not someone to be taken lightly," Bai Shizhuang said slowly.
"Lan Qingyan, if you don't leave, we'll go ahead," Baili Hongzhuang said to Lan Qingyan.
However, Lan Qingyan didn't show any response.
Seeing this, Baili Hongzhuang and Emperor Beichen exchanged glances and decided to leave first.
After all, Lan Qingyan was originally from the Lan family, and it wouldn't be appropriate for them to stay here indefinitely.
They didn't want to give Lan Jingkuang any opportunity to cause trouble.
As Baili Hongzhuang and the three of them walked towards the exit of the Ice and Snow Divine Pool, the four Lan family disciples hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do. In the end, they could only stay in place with Lan Qingyan.
Early in the morning, Lan Jingkuang and the other Lan family elders were already waiting outside the Ice and Snow Divine Pool.
Their faces were filled with smiles. They had already informed the family head about this matter a few days ago, and although there was still a hint of unwillingness on the family head's face, he had no reason to refuse. So they had prepared for the ceremony.
They were just waiting for Lan Qingyan to break through to the Purple Realm and come out. Everything would then fall into place, and Lan Qingyan would soon become the true head of the Lan family.
However, after waiting for a while, they still didn't see anyone coming out of the Ice and Snow Divine Pool, causing Lan Jingkuang and the others to frown.
"Why hasn't anyone come out yet? Could there be a problem?" Elder Lan Kai Cheng's face changed slightly. According to reason, there shouldn't be any issues.
"It shouldn't be. I haven't heard any movements either!" Elder Three spoke up.
A shadow of gloom appeared in Lan Jingkuang's eyes. He was already prepared, and everything was in place. He didn't want any unexpected problems to occur at such a critical moment.
Just as everyone was anxiously waiting and wanting to go in to see what was happening, the sound of footsteps came from inside the Ice and Snow Divine Pool.
Upon hearing the footsteps, Lan Jingkuang and the others finally relaxed a bit.
"They're coming out!" Elder Lan Kai Cheng smiled.
The footsteps drew closer, and then a figure appeared in front of everyone.
