"May I come over and take a look?" Su Xiaoqiang asked obediently from behind him.

"Come on over." Gu Ran smiled.

So Su Xiaoqiang came over eagerly. Knowing the importance of caution, she didn't touch anything, but just looked down and peered through the ice.

"Wow, as expected of a dragon, it's so exquisite!" Su Xiaoqiang exclaimed in surprise.

The little dragon inside is transparent and looks a lot like a gecko, but also a bit like a seahorse. It has two membrane wings that unfold on its back, and they are very detailed.

Its eyes were closed like a baby's, but its body was trembling, as if it were having a nightmare.

Perhaps it realized it had been arrested, hence its surprise and anger?

After all, it never imagined that it would be captured by humans one day.

Gu Ran thought for a moment, then took the box from Kassel College that he was carrying with him and put the ice crystal inside.

The ice crystals are connected to his own chakra. As long as he is by his side, he can maintain the chakra so that the ice will never melt.

To ensure nothing went wrong, Gu Ran took out a storage scroll and sealed the box directly into the spirit scroll before carefully storing it away.

"So, does that mean I can go swimming again now?" Su Xiaoqiang asked with a smile as she watched Gu Ran pack up her things.

"Stop playing, it's getting dark and the water is cold, you're not allowed to go in."

"Okay, I've always been a good baby!" Su Xiaoqiang said sweetly.

"I'll go catch some seafood for you." Gu Ran patted her head, then sent two shadow clones out to catch some seafood. In no time, they caught two large lobsters and a huge turbot.

Because the seafood is so fresh, especially the lobster, it tastes great just by grilling it over a fire, without even needing to add salt, as the seawater itself is salty.

As for the turbot, Gu Ran took out a cast iron pan and pan-fried it, saying it would taste even better that way.

He also took out instant noodles and canned food from his psychic scroll.

Su Xiaoqiang loves to eat lobster. This lobster is different from the Boston lobster sold in the market. It is the most authentic green lobster, and it is also wild. It tastes very good when it is slightly grilled, and it is also good as sashimi. However, neither of them likes to eat raw food.

Chapter 584 The Jiang Family's Son-in-Law

After dinner, the two lay down in the tent to go to sleep.

“Speaking of which, did we forget to call Xiao Lianhua?” Gu Ran suddenly remembered something.

"Oh right!" Su Xiaoqiang also remembered, she had been too busy playing.

So Gu Ran took out a satellite phone and called Yuan Zhisheng.

Yuan Zhisheng said, "When I saw the news about the plane you were on crashing, and your name and Su Xiaoqiang's name were on the list of victims, I thought something had happened to you."

Gu Ran instructed Zhang Qiong not to release the photos of the two, but to mislead the Solomon Temple Society, they still used their real names in pinyin.

"We're fine, we escaped early." Gu Ran casually explained, then brought up Xiao Lianhua's matter, "We might not have time to send Xiao Lianhua back to Japan, could you help us send her back? Just to the airport in Japan, someone will pick her up."

“It’s alright, we’re also preparing to return to Japan,” Genji said.

"Oh?"

"Eri doesn't really like it here; she prefers Tokyo."

“After all, it’s the place where she has the most memories,” Gu Ran said with a smile. “Actually, it would be better for you to go back to Japan. With Princess Kaguya protecting you, you’re actually safer than if you were abroad.”

Yuan Zhisheng understood Gu Ran's meaning. Their secret of royal blood had long been exposed, but their enemies thought that their entire family was dead, so they were able to live a relatively peaceful life now.

If it gets discovered... I'm afraid some greedy people will do something to the royal bloodline again.

Therefore, returning to Japan is a good option.

Even Uesugi Koshi wants to go back to Japan. France now seems different from where he lived back then. France is so strange now. A couple got married, and the husband suspected that the son was not his own. He wanted to do a paternity test, but it turned out to be illegal!

This has truly broadened my horizons.

So Uesugi Koshi still wants to return to Japan and live with his son and daughter. However, if he dies, he hopes to be buried in a French monastery, next to his mother.

However, thanks to Gu Ran's treatment, he seems to be quite a distance away from death.

After exchanging a few more words, Gu Ran prepared to hang up the phone.

Yuan Zhisheng said earnestly, "If there's anything we can do to help, please let us know. We'd be happy to lend a hand."

He was referring to the plane bombing, an attack of this scale that was clearly premeditated and targeted.

"Thanks, but don't worry, I've never been taken advantage of before. If you need help, I definitely won't hesitate to ask."

*……*……*

For the rest of the time, since Su Xiaoqiang wanted to fly and play in the sea, Gu Ran took out the hang glider he had brought out before, so that it could block out the sun and fly slowly over the sea.

His plan was to travel east to western Australia, disembark there, and then take a flight back home.

They would encounter some passing ships along the way, but they didn't ask for help. After all, they had enough supplies to travel around the world.

Sometimes, if it rains, we'll just find a random island to take shelter from the wind and rain, and then continue our journey after the rain stops.

The most excited person on this journey adrift at sea was Su Xiaoqiang, because she saw a group of dolphins.

The dolphins seemed excited to see the paraglider flying towards them, and even jumped out of the water, as if inviting Su Xiaoqiang into the water.

So this playful girl actually jumped into the sea and played and frolicked with the dolphins.

The dolphins surrounded her as if they were adoring a mermaid princess. Several dolphins kept nudging Su Xiaoqiang's buttocks and waist with their mouths and noses, as if afraid that she would sink because she couldn't swim.

Some dolphins were quite mischievous, opening their mouths wide to gently nibble at Su Xiaoqiang's arms and thighs. They were very careful and didn't use much force.

Gu Ran floated on the water, taking pictures of her with his phone and recording her playing in videos.

She played in the sea for almost an hour before getting tired and having to come out. Because she didn't have a swimming ring, she had to keep treading water, which was quite tiring.

When the dolphins saw that she was about to leave, they knew that it was time to say goodbye, so they all called out loudly in the sea, making high-frequency dolphin sounds.

After being pulled out of the sea by Gu Ran, Su Xiaoqiang reluctantly waved goodbye to the sea creatures.

"Goodbye, see you next time if fate allows!" Su Xiaoqiang said sadly, her eyes red.

The ocean is so vast; perhaps this farewell between them will be their last.

Seeing that she was sad, Gu Ran jumped into the sea and placed the Flying Thunder God mark on all the dolphins.

"Dolphins generally live for thirty or forty years. We'll come back to play with them again in the future. With me here, we're sure we can find them."

"Mmm." Su Xiaoqiang leaned against him. "Next time we'll bring them some food."

"Okay." Gu Ran put his arm around her and rubbed her shoulders.

A few days later, the two finally landed in western Australia.

Because they didn't enter the country through official channels, Gu Ran secretly went to the Australian border control office to stamp their passports with entry stamps, claiming that they had arrived by boat.

Su Xiaoqiang had a great time on this trip. Every time she went out with Gu Ran, she always experienced different kinds of fun.

She knew that it was because he always put his heart into her that he could make her happy at all times.

That's why she enjoys going out with him so much.

The two boarded a flight back to Shanghai, and then went back to Binhai together.

However, Gu Ran had to take care of something in Shanghai first.

He used a transformation technique to become the appearance of a flight attendant he had met in South Africa, and then used her appearance to cash the $1 million check that Susanna had given him!

The funds from the check were transferred to a secret overseas account that Gu Ran had asked Su Enxi to set up. This account was designed to keep things under wraps and allow Gu Ran to do some clandestine things.

It's likely that Susanna's boss never imagined that someone would actually cash the check. They thought Gu Ran was really dead, and the check was burned on the plane.

“The Solomon Temple Society, wait, I’ll have some fun with you later!” Gu Ran said.

……

After returning to Binhai, Gu Ran first took Su Xiaoqiang home to meet with Su's father and mother.

When Mr. Su saw that the two had returned safely, he finally felt relieved.

After dropping Su Xiaoqiang off at home, Gu Ran didn't stay for dinner. Instead, he borrowed their car and drove home.

"Mom, I'm home! Is there any food?" Gu Ran opened the door to her large apartment and shouted as soon as she entered.

Zhang Qiong was doing yoga on a yoga mat in the living room at that moment. She stretched her waist and said indifferently, "Do you think I'm your maid? You come in looking for food as soon as you enter the door. If you want to eat, make it yourself."

"Waaaaah!" Gu Ran started to fake cry, "My mom doesn't love me anymore, she won't even cook for me anymore, waaaaah!"

Zhang Qiong was both amused and exasperated. Her eldest son was already engaged, yet he was still so improper.

She said irritably, "You're the Supreme Elder of the Zhang family, can't you be a little more serious?"

"Will you get food if you act seriously?"

"Yes!" Zhang Qiong got off the yoga mat, put on her slippers, and walked into the kitchen. "What do you want to eat? It's already past three in the afternoon, so let's just have some instant noodles!"

"Do I really need you to make instant noodles? Anyone can boil water!"

"If you know how, cook it yourself!"

The mother and son bickered for a while, but Gu Ran eventually ordered takeout and ate a whole double cheese pizza by himself.

"By the way, Mom, did you find out about what you asked me to inquire about?" Gu Ran asked.

“There is indeed a family surnamed Jiang in Kunshan, and they have a son-in-law surnamed Bai who lives with them. As you guessed, the daughter surnamed Jiang does indeed have some connection with the Temple of Solomon,” Zhang Qiong explained casually, wiping her sweat.

She shared some information she had learned from Nuwa, and finally asked Gu Ran about his plans: "How do you intend to take revenge?"

“I know what I’m doing. You know me, if I’m going to do something, I’m going to do it thoroughly.” Gu Ran took a sip of cola. “He actually dared to scare me. It seems he’s prepared for his entire family to be wiped out.”

Zhang Qiong nodded, seeing that her eldest son had a plan.

Moreover, Zhang Qiong didn't think her son was exaggerating. In her opinion, if her son died, the annihilation of the other party's entire family would be the least of her worries.

“If you have any difficulties, just say so. You are the Supreme Elder of the Zhang family. Being attacked as a Supreme Elder is a slap in the face to the Zhang family. The patriarch was also very angry after he found out about this. He has already said that if you want revenge, you can use all the power of the Zhang family.”

“There’s no need to use the Zhang family’s power. I can easily make that kid suffer with a little bit of my cleverness,” Gu Ran said with a sneer. “Besides, we must have a legitimate reason for our actions. We can’t use the guise of revenge, because there’s no evidence to support the claim that the plane exploded.”

Yes, all the evidence was destroyed in the sky; this attack was completely untraceable.

Therefore, Gu Ran can only have doubts, and such doubts cannot convince the public.

He wanted Solomon's Temple to be convinced of its defeat when it was destroyed.
