“Lord Qian won’t give me time.” Especially after she had received the thing Lord Qian wanted. If things kept going the way it did, Lord Qian would definitely make a move soon. However, this time, he wasn’t going to let her off easy like before.
“You were too hasty in your decisions,” Number Five said helplessly.
“I can wait, but the others can’t.” Ling Lan’s expression was determined. The move she made seemed to have been made blindly without any care about the consequences, but in reality, the only way they could escape from the clutches of Lord QIan was by doing those seemingly reckless actions.
“With your wits, you clearly could have avoided it.” Number Five still thought Ling Lan’s plan this time was not well executed.
“Why should I refuse what has been given to me?” Ling Lan responded coldly.
“However, at the same time, you also paid the price for it in time. You clearly had time to prepare for it.” Number Five, a person who disliked taking any risks, didn’t like Ling Lan’s extremely reckless way of doing things.
“What’s destined to come will come eventually. Plus, what’s the point of getting one to two more years. If I can’t advance into the god-realm, I can only be a pawn in Lord Qian’s grasp, not his opponent.” Ling Lan saw through it all. “In that case, I would rather grasp all of the opportunities laid before me regardless of risk, and perhaps something magical might happen.”
“For others, one or two years are indeed useless, but for you, with the virtual time dimension machine, it’s not like you are helpless.” Ling Lan’s words could fool others, but they couldn’t fool Number Five. He knew about Ling Lan just as much as Ling Lan knew about herself.
“Using the virtual time dimension machine will only help me sense the catalyst to advance the first time I use it. If I don’t succeed in my first try, then the subsequent trials would only help me acquire more experience, but I will no longer have a chance to advance. In that case, what’s the point of having that one or two years? I would rather risk it now.” Ling Lan knew very well what she wanted. “Sometimes, fighting against the tide doesn’t mean there’s no chance of winning.”
Number Five looked at Ling Lan with a heavy gaze. “It seems, you’ve made up your mind.”
“After meeting Lord Qian, I realized that this was the only path I can take.” Every decision Ling Lan made, although not necessarily calculated, was made through careful deliberation over the pros and cons. After deliberating over and over again, she made the conclusion that what she did was the best choice.
“Alright, since you’ve made up your mind, I’ll let you go in. Just like you said, you only have one chance,” reminded Number Five.
Ling Lan nodded.

Number Five’s finger slashed the air beside him lightly and a dimensional tear slowly opened up. It gradually got wider and wider until it was wide enough for a person to fit through.
Ling Lan nodded gratefully towards Number Five and walked into the dimensional tear without looking back.
Boom! The dimensional tear crackled the moment Ling Lan went in. It was then the dimensional tear started to swirl, gradually getting smaller and smaller with each turn before disappearing in a ‘pop’.
The next second, a slender figure appeared beside Number Five.
“Why didn’t you try to stop her?” asked Number Five. Even though she was so worried, Number Nine didn’t even try to persuade her against it or even see her off, Number Five thought it was out of character for Number Nine to do that.
“No one can stop Ling Lan from doing what she wants. Even Number One can’t do that.” The time Number Nine spent with Ling Lan was the longest out of all the instructors. Her feelings for Ling Lan had already surpassed the love for a disciple. It could even be said that she had already thought of Ling Lan as her child.
When Number Nine realized her motherly feelings for Ling Lan, she no longer gave Ling Lan any instructions or suggestions. That was because she knew her feelings would affect her judgment., and without proper judgement, she wasn’t qualified to be an instructor for Ling Lan. The only thing she could do now was to trust in Ling Lan. Even if she was worried and desperately not wishing for her to go, she couldn’t come out and affect Ling Lan’s decision.
“Number Nine, the rule of the dimension states that you shouldn’t have feelings for the host,” reminded Number Five.
“Then you can enforce that rule right now,” Number Nine glared at Number Five as she replied.
Number Five smiled sweetly after hearing those words, “Why should I enforce it. This place isn’t Mandora. There isn’t that annoying disciplinary committee too.”
“If there really was a disciplinary committee, you would have gone there long ago I’m sure.” Number Nine didn’t leave any face for Number Five and spoke out his true intentions.
“Expected of the person who understands me the most.” Number Five’s smile became even sweeter. Even his eyes were smiling. The originally cold smile actually looked beautiful at that moment. It was like a flower blooming in the harsh cold winter.
“It’s already been so long but I still don’t understand you.” Number Nine looked at Number Five with disdain and then disappeared in the next second.
Number Five sighed softly after Number Nine left. “Yeah, it’s been so long already, but why don’t you understand what I want…”
