"Lan Qingyan was ecstatic, feeling all eyes on her. Today, she was like a queen, capturing everyone's attention. This was her favorite feeling, as if all others were insignificant dust while she was the one shining brightly.
Lan Jingkuang's mood was also quite good. He walked beside Lan Qingyan, wearing a happy smile on his face.
Elders like Lan Kaicheng and Lan Yongtai were also beaming with joy. Although it wasn't them who became the new head of the family today, as members of the same faction, they were equally delighted to share in the glory and prosperity.
Lan Hongtai, the former head of the family, slowly approached from the other side, with Lan Borong and other elders following behind him.
This glimpse revealed the internal factions within the Lan family.
Baili Hongzhuang glanced at the people behind Lan Hongtai, and if her guess was correct, most of the elders behind him were the ones who had supported Lan Yunxiao.
Even though today was Lan Qingyan's day as the new head, she couldn't see much joy on their faces.
With the appearance of the Lan family members, the entire central square became lively, filled with constant discussions.
"The young miss looks truly beautiful today!"
"I heard that the young miss has successfully broken through to the Purple Realm. At such a young age, she already has such cultivation. It is enough to ensure the prosperity of our Lan family for a hundred years!"
"The young miss is the inheritor of the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl. Her talent has been extraordinary since she was young, a gift from the heavens to our Lan family!"
The Lan family members in Lan Yangcheng regarded Lan Qingyan as the goddess in their hearts. Since Lan Qingyan displayed her talent in her childhood, her status in the hearts of the Lan family's younger generation had never been shaken.
The Seven-Colored Divine Pearl was a miraculous inheritance of the Lan family. Whoever possessed the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl would inevitably become the head of the Lan family. This belief had long been deeply rooted in everyone's hearts.
Lan Yunxiao and the others, upon hearing the discussions, gradually turned cold.
His hand under his sleeve clenched into a fist, and Lan Yunxiao's gaze fixed firmly on Lan Jingkuang on the high platform.
His brother was the cause of all this!
He had taken away everything from his beloved daughter, and now he was enjoying such respect and glory here?
Mu Lingbing looked at the smiling Yue Manlan, and her hatred deepened.
This despicable and malicious woman had persecuted their entire family out of envy for everything she had obtained. She would not forgive them and would drag them into hell at the height of their glory!
Behind Lan Jingkuang and the others, another figure attracted everyone's attention—Yue Siqing!
Unlike her usual high and mighty appearance, Yue Siqing looked extremely disheveled today. The redness on her face hadn't faded, clearly showing the marks of the beating she had received.
Upon seeing Bai Li Hongzhuang, Lan Jingkuang nodded to indicate that he had indeed brought Yue Siqing with him and hadn't let her leave.
He absolutely couldn't give Bai Li Hongzhuang any reason to cause trouble today!
Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled faintly, nodding in response to Lan Jingkuang.
"I've never seen Yue Siqing in such a miserable state before!"
"I heard she tried to poison the young palace master of the Infinite Palace yesterday and was severely taught a lesson."
