Chapter 1428: 1428. Probe.

Ling Lan smiled but didn’t reply to Lord Qian.

She didn’t have a choice in deciding whether she could be ruthless or not in this situation. Plus, she was sure Li Lanfeng and Luo Lang preferred to fight alongside her even if the risk of dying was very high. If she really did ask them to run, she would just be insulting their resolve to go along with her.

After waiting there silently for a few minutes, she saw Li Lanfeng and Luo Lang walking over calmly accompanied by Lord Dui.

When they saw Ling Lan, they hastened their speed to stand behind her without any hesitation.

Lord Qian’s eyes lit up when he saw them being so loyal to Ling Lan. He got even more interested in Ling Lan now. Ling Lan was very young but he managed to gain the respect of his comrades of the same generation. He must have some capabilities.

He inspected Li Lanfeng and Luo Lang for a while before pointing to Ling Lan and saying, “Do you know he was the one who brought you in here to die? What do you think about that?”

Lord Qian observed the three young men in front of him with interest. He wanted to see if anything interesting would happen because of what he said.

Luo Lang looked at Lord Qian in confusion when he heard this.

As for Li Lanfeng, from the moment he came in, he had a small smile on his face. The angle of his lips never changed. It was as if what Lord Qian said was of no significance.

Lord Qian glanced at Li Lanfeng. Then, he looked at Luo Lang who didn’t seem to understand what was happening. He asked, “Tell me honestly. If I’m satisfied with your answer, I might show some mercy and let you leave this place alive.”

“What about Boss?” Luo Lang looked at Ling Lan who was in front of him.

“He is my guest. He can’t leave,” Lord Qian smiled and replied.

Luo Lang shrugged nonchalantly when he heard this. “Why should I leave then?”

Lord Qian was stunned. “What do you mean?”

“I will stay beside Boss wherever he is,” Luo Lang said seriously. “Plus, I promised someone that anyone that wants to hurt Boss will have to step over my dead body first.”

As Luo Lang was speaking, his entire body seemed to have turned into a sword that was about to come out of its sheath. His aura was filled with killing intent.

“Same for me.” Li Lanfeng smiled and agreed with Luo Lang.

While Li Lanfeng was saying that, his aura was gentle and harmless. When standing beside Luo Lang who was engulfed in a malicious aura, they formed two different extremes. However, Lord Qian wasn’t on Luo Lang but rather on Li Lanfeng. He sized up Li Lanfeng intently for a moment.

But, it was only for a short moment. To Lord Qian, who was almost invincible, he wouldn’t take it seriously if there was an imperial realm formidable warrior in front of him, much less two titled domain realm formidable warriors. He only looked at them again because the immense trust the two of them had for Lord Gen… This firm belief moved his heart a little.

Actually, Lord Qian’s words might seem simple but he used a psychological attack to waver Li Lanfeng and Luo Lang’s trust in Ling Lan. At first, he thought that he would see the end of a beautiful camaraderie but surprisingly, he failed. He was quite surprised.

The psychological attack of a god-realm formidable warrior would cause a single doubt in their hearts to amplify multiple times. If there was a single hint of distrust or weakness in one’s heart, the relationship between the two would be destroyed.

Lord Qian didn’t know that Luo Lang grew up with Ling Lan so their friendship had already been etched deeply into their bones. In addition, Luo Lang was a pure person. To him, one means one and two means two. He was very straightforward and direct. When he liked someone, he would treat them wholeheartedly. How could such a person have any holes in his heart?

Plus, with Luo Lang’s Alter Ego, it meant that he had many personalities inside him. Thus, even though his spiritual power wasn’t as strong as Ling Lan or Li Lanfeng, it wasn’t much weaker either. A psychological attack only had a high rate of success if your opponent had a weak spiritual power. With the same logic, the stronger his spiritual power, the lower the success rate. Hence, his psychological barrier wouldn’t be broken so easily with just a few sentences.

As for Li Lanfeng, he was another extreme.

Luo Lang was pure and naive so he had no holes in his heart. On the other hand, Li Lanfeng was complicated and sinister. His personality was very dark and his heart was full of desires. Power, position, lust, and gluttony. In a sense, he was a flawed human. But, because his greed had reached to an extreme degree, unless you struck him in his fatal spot, his heart wouldn’t be moved.

Lord Qian’s attack was aimed at the wrong direction so he didn’t yield any results.

Ling Lan appeared as if she didn’t notice Lord Qian messing with her companions or maybe she didn’t care about it at all. All she did was just smile at Lord Qian.

“Haha, not bad.” Lord Qian laughed. He didn’t hide what he did. Not knowing what was happening, the naive Luo Lang also started laughing too.

However, Ling Lan and Li Lanfeng maintained their smile and didn’t laugh.

“Fine, young friend, you can tell me your thoughts now. Why do you think that it’s our decision for the Lawless Lands to be in this trash state?” Lord Qian suddenly retracted his smile and stared intently at Ling Lan.

Ling Lan felt as if her face was being slashed by many knives. In the end, her eyes, skin, and the inside of her eyes started hurting.

A cold gaze appeared in Ling Lan’s eyes. Her body trembled a little. In an invisible world, she successfully evaded the frightening death glare of Lord Qian.

It looks like the two of them were just staring at each other but she and Lord Qian knew that they had already exchanged a blow. If she couldn’t resist the attack, she might have been blinded for life.

“Thank you, Number One. Thanks for helping me.” Ling Lan thanked Number One in her mindscape. With her own ability, she would not be able to evade the glare from a god-realm formidable warrior. No matter how strong an imperial realm formidable warrior was, they were nothing in the eyes of a god-realm master. Truthfully, they were just little children who couldn’t put up much resistance.

“It’s alright. When you need me, I will act.” Number One’s indifferent voice appeared in her mindscape. This voice was cold but it gave Ling Lan a sense of security. With Number one by her side, she didn’t have to worry about anything.

“At first, I thought that the 13 Lords started the battle royale because they wanted to sow seeds… I thought that they wanted to train a batch of warriors in the Lawless Lands.” Ling Lan smiled. “But, I soon realised that that wasn’t the case. You started the tradition of battle royales so that all of you would have an easier time controlling this place.”

Lord Qian scoffed, “You should have read the history of the Lawless Lands from the books in the rainbow palace. Mind you, these battle royale are what the nations in the central regions hoped to see the most. If we don’t have battle royales, it won’t be long before the alliance troops of all the nations would charge in and purge everyone here.”

“There’s insufficient resources in the Lawless Lands for them to waste manpower here.” Ling Lan exposed him with a single sentence.

“Even if they don’t come so quickly, the spies they sent will create unrest and hatred among us. Without us, the battle royale will still exist,” Lord Qian said calmly. “Rather than letting innocent people get hurt, the lords decided to start the battle royale voluntarily. That way, we can train our army while preventing commoners from getting hurt. We kill two birds with one stone.”
