Luo Lang almost fainted from anger. “You little…”
Ling Lan helplessly looked at the childish conversation between the two people in front of her. She knew that during this time, Li Lanfeng would always provoke Luo Lang in order to make him not think about Xie Yi"s death.
Every time Luo Lang was angry and annoyed, he would be more energetic than when he was quiet. Ling Lan knew that so she didn"t do anything about Li Lanfeng and Luo Lang"s little argument.
She looked at that piece of granite and then stepped on it with great force.
A force went through her leg and then they heard a soft clicking sound.
Behind them, 20 meters away from the mountain wall, a hole suddenly appeared in the ground.
“Holy sh*t, it actually so far from us. Who would think of looking there?” Luo Lang had already forgotten about quarreling with Li Lanfeng. He jumped over and reached the edge of the hole.
“There"s stairs,” Luo Lang said joyfully. It seemed that this was indeed a pa.s.sageway.
“Let"s go down,” Ling Lan said indifferently.
“Alrighty.” Luo Lang instantly jumped in after hearing those words.
Ling Lan shook her head speechlessly once again. When will Luo Lang be able to become more careful and think things over? He didn"t even know what the situation was like down below but he still jumped down without a care in the world. He was so fearless. Was he not afraid that it would be filled with traps down there?
“Luo Lang can deal with most of the common difficulties,” Lanfeng smiled as he comforted Ling Lan.
“It seems his calm personality can"t be by his side all the time,” Ling Lan said with a thought in mind.
“It"s quite taxing for the main body to activate his domain so many times. His calm personality probably doesn"t want Luo Lang to feel any backlash,” guessed Li Lanfeng.
“Maybe. I"ll find a chance to get to the bottom of it.” Ling Lan remembered Luo Lang"s odd change during the fight on the 7th Bugle Call against Lord Gen"s disciple. She decided when things become more stable, she would go find the calm personality and talk about it.
“I"ll go down and take a look.” Li Lanfeng chose to go down first. He instantly jumped down just like Luo Lang.
For domain realm masters such as themselves, they could easily negate the impact of a fall. Even if they were to jump down thousands of feet, it wouldn"t be a problem.
Ling Lan sighed once again. Couldn"t they just walk down and not jump down one by one? They were too rash.
Ling Lan, who felt she needed to keep her word, chose to hold on the railing as she walked down the stairs. After walking for seven or eight steps…
Alright, jumping down seemed to be less tiring. Ling Lan chose to jump down. Since everyone else had jumped down, she shouldn"t go against the grain just because of her stubbornness, right?
Ling Lan definitely wouldn"t admit that she had just done something dumb.
After floating in the air for more than 30 seconds, Ling Lan finally saw the bottom of the hole.
The bottom of the hole only had a large sealed door. Other than that, there was nothing else there.
Without any light source, it was pitch-black. However, domain realm masters could use their spiritual power to investigate their surroundings without actually seeing with their eyes. This method"s effectiveness was much better than the naked eye since it didn"t miss any blind spots.
“It"s so dark. I would be nice if there was some light.” Ling Lan wasn"t afraid of the dark, but she still liked lit up places.
Right after she said that, she felt something softly jump onto her shoulder. Then, a dim light appeared. It brightened up this dark place by quite a lot.
“Little White, why are you also here?” asked Luo Lang when he saw a bright ball shining on Ling Lan"s shoulder. It should be known that after Little White squished Boss, it had buried itself in the snow and played dead. Luo Lang originally thought it would stay up there and guard the five guardians. He didn"t think it actually didn"t care about its little life and followed them here.
“Rawr (I"m here to help my master. I"m a little sun that brings light and warmth.)…”
Little White excitedly waved its little tentacles as if being a help to its master was a very proud thing for it to do. Little White had already forgotten it had squished its master under its b.u.t.t just moments ago.
Well, with Little White"s simple mind, it couldn"t be helped that it couldn"t think about complex situations, especially when it was the cute type where it would smile dumbly after giving just a bit of praise. It had no hope of learning from its faults. The chance of it repeating a mistake was more or less 100% of the time.
Ling Lan flicked her finger to flick Little White away. She then softly dusted her shoulder and calmly spoke as she raised her head, “Let"s go in.”
Luo Lang watched as Little White got flicked away and bounced around the walls. In the end, the little ball rolled to a corner. Little White"s googly eyes showed twirls and its mouth twitched many times. Luo Lang could almost feel its pain. When they accidentally make Boss mad, they would be in the same state as Little White right now. Oh, wait, no, maybe even worse.
After hearing Ling Lan"s words, Luo Lang stood up straight, turned around and walked over to the door.
Bang! Luo Lang b.u.mped into the door.
This scene made Li Lanfeng"s eyes twitch uncontrollably. Luo Lang being stupid suddenly was definitely something he didn"t want to see.
Ling Lan also had a frustrated expression on her face. She rubbed her forehead with a speechless expression… What kind of underling and pet did she bring? One was dumber than the other…
In the end, Ling Lan placed her hope into Li Lanfeng. He hoped that the strategist she trusted wouldn"t be infected by the dumbness and have his intelligence drop below zero.
Sensing the hope in Ling Lan"s eyes, Li Lanfeng instantly felt immense pressure on him. He took a deep breath, walked to the door and began to look for clues to open the door.
Luckily, the books he read in the past were actually useful to let him find the clues he was looking for.
He slowly put his right palm on the circular center of the door. Then, he slowly put forth energy into it according to the path his mind believed to be correct.
As the energy flowed through, the patterns on the door began to react and slowly lit up. In the end, the entire door was covered in dim lights. Then after a few cracking sounds, the door was slowly opened.
Li Lanfeng breathed a sigh of relief before looking expectantly at Ling Lan. He then saw Ling Lan smile at him, It seemed like Ling Lan approved of him or was relieved he could do it. This made Li Lanfeng very happy. He felt that he managed to perform well in front of his crush for once.
At that moment, Li Lanfeng was grateful towards Luo Lang and Little White"s dumbness. It was their dumb behaviors that made his intelligence shine in comparison.
In reality, Ling Lan was thinking that it was good Li Lanfeng wasn"t infected with Luo Lang and Little White"s dumbness. It made her feel that this world was still good to her and didn"t let her fight the battles alone.
Other than that, she didn"t feel anything else.
Right as Ling Lan was about to walk in, she suddenly thought of something. She then pointed at Little White, who was still on the floor all dizzy, and spoke to Luo Lang, “Take it with us. It can be used to light the way.”
Surprisingly, the creature at the top of the food chain on Planet Juhao, Little White, was only good enough to be a lantern while with Ling Lan… Let"s pity our Little White for having such a terrible master with a drop of our tears.
