Chapter 648: One-man Battle!Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“The princess…” Mu Youyun relaxed after Zhao Jun confirmed his guess. However, he started worrying for the princess and Qian Jialin. He thought about it and felt that since these two were sent over to help him, they must have sent people to help the princess too.
“Don"t worry. Our boss is over there personally. It would be fine,” Qi Long consoled him.
He looked at his communicator said, “The princess has been rescued. Our boss asked us to gather at the entrance.”
Hence, Mu Youyun and those members that were fine carried their heavily injured comrades and followed Qi Long and Zhao Jun to the first floor.
Since there was an important hostage on their side, the organizers of the auction didn"t send any more people to attack them. They managed to regroup with Ling Lan and the rest of the people at the atrium on the first floor.
Ling Lan asked them to leave first. She would stay behind at the atrium with the hostage.
Qi Long and the others hesitated for a moment before leaving with the princess. Aoqi was not safe anymore. They had to board the Feiyang Ship. Of course, whether they would remain safe on the ship depended on Aoqi"s att.i.tude. If the government of Aoqi didn"t mind revealing their true intention, they would have a difficult time leaving this planet.
The moment they left, a figure appeared behind Ling Lan. It was Miluo Duoba.
“I have kept my promise. It is time to keep yours,” Miluo Duoba said in a cold voice.
“Of course.” Ling Lan pushed Luo"er towards Miluo Duoba.
Miluo Duoba caught his grandson. He examined his body carefully. Besides his joints that were dislocated, there were no other serious injuries. He was relieved.
He waved his hand and a figure appeared behind him. That figure took Luo"er away.
“Why are you still not leaving?” Since his grandson was saved, Miluo Duoba started releasing his force of presence again.
“I am waiting for you. Rather than letting you ambush us, I rather wait for you here.” Ling Lan knew that Miluo Duoba would definitely take his revenge. If she moved with Qi Long and the others, she would definitely implicate them. Qi-Jin masters were unable to withstand the force of a battle between domain masters.
Miluo Duoba"s gaze froze. He didn"t expect Ling Lan to guess his intention. He realized that his opponent was not only powerful but was also shrewd. This made him more frightened. He wondered if it was worth it to fight him. Although he took his grandson as a hostage, he returned it to him as promised…
Miluo Duoba was astounded. Sweat drenched his shirt. He didn"t notice that he was actually afraid of his opponent. If he chose to not fight today, this person would become his nightmare. He would be unable to progress further in the domain realm.
I must kill him! Killing intent formed in his heart. He had to kill him in order to progress further.
Ling Lan felt the malicious intent from Miluo Duoba. It was getting stronger. She frowned and got vigilant.
She didn"t know why her opponent wanted to kill her so badly but she was not afraid. The moment she decided to step on the path to become stronger, she never allowed herself to retreat.
This was how stubborn Ling Lan was. Whether it was this life or her previous life, there was no stopping her once she decided to do something.
The fighting spirit in Ling Lan grew stronger. She wanted to fight against this domain master too.
Ling Lan didn"t really fight with Miluo Duoba in the tunnel but from their short exchange earlier on, she knew that Miluo Duoba was much stronger than the two domain masters she met on Planet Kachi. This person might be her true match.
Suddenly, the entire atrium went dark. There was a problem with electricity. Ling Lan immediately released her domain power and surrounded herself with layers of ice.
Just as Little Four wanted to remind his boss about something, a hand grabbed him and pulled him into a whirlpool. He disappeared instantly.
“Why didn"t you let me remind her?” Little Four screamed at Number Five in anger. Number Five was the person who pulled him back into the learning s.p.a.ce.
Number Five ignored Little Four. Little Four wanted to pounce on Number Five and bite him. He wished that he could bite the irritating and disgusting smile away on his face.
Number Five couldn"t stand it anymore and explained to Little Four in a serious tone, “This is her own battle. We cannot help her.”
After he finished talking, he looked at the image in front of him. It was a live broadcast of Ling Lan"s battle. The other instructors were standing beside him. They were all concerned about her match.
Little Four was puzzled. He wanted to ask for a clearer explanation. A big hand suddenly pressed his head. “This is an opportunity for Ling Lan to improve herself. She must go through it herself. If not, it would be useless.”
“But, what if boss can"t find her opponent?” Little Four looked at Number One with tears in his eyes. He knew that his boss couldn"t see anything now.
Number One didn"t reply Little Four but Little Four knew the answer. Intelligent ent.i.ties in the learning s.p.a.ce were not allowed to help their master if they met any dangers in the real world. This was a rule. If the intelligent ent.i.ties in the learning s.p.a.ce broke this rule, the learning s.p.a.ce would self-destruct. Their master"s mind would be injured heavily in the process and she might even be brain dead. Intelligent ent.i.ties like them would be destroyed too.
If their master was killed in the real world, they would have to leave the mindscape of their current master and enter the mindscape of their next master.
No, his boss can"t die! Little Four clenched his fist. He shouted, “Boss can definitely make it.”
Yes, his boss never disappointed him. Little Four believed in Ling Lan.
However, Little Four made a decision secretly. If his boss died, he would self-destruct. He only has one master and that is his boss——Ling Lan!
The naive Little Four was fooled by the cunning instructors. He didn"t know that the instructors had already helped Ling Lan. They would not allow Ling Lan to die.
“Is there no light?” Without any light, Ling Lan almost couldn"t see her own fingers. Even though Ling Lan had good vision, she could only make out the outline of the chairs and sofas in the atrium. She couldn"t see anything else.
