Chapter 339 - The Popular Prison (4)
Lan Ming was stunned.Did he hear it wrong? What he heard was, "Goodbye, I won"t see you out". Why was his treatment worse than that of the man in black just now? They actually started chasing him away so quickly. Boohoo… He was depressed.
"Hey, why aren"t you leaving yet?" Freak urged Lan Ming when he saw him standing there motionlessly like a fool.
"Alas!" Lan Ming, who was wallowing in self-pity, sighed after coming back to his senses. No wonder that man in black almost vomited blood from anger. These two fellows indeed had the capital to anger someone to death.
In fact, he was only one step slower than the man in black just now. Therefore, he had hidden in the dark. When he saw the man in black almost vomiting blood from anger, he laughed in his heart. But now that it was his turn to be despised, he couldn"t laugh anymore…
"I really came to save you," Lan Ming said helplessly. Alas! He could only accept it when he encountered these two troublesome people.
"Why?" Leng Ruoxue asked in puzzlement.
"Because you"re from my Mystic a.s.sociation! Is there a need to ask?" Lan Ming was depressed. These two people"s thoughts were really…
"So what? We didn"t say we wanted you to save us," Leng Ruoxue said ungratefully. Hmph! I haven"t had enough fun yet. How could I be saved? Then what was the point of playing?
"I"m being nosy, alright? Little ancestor!" Lan Ming was speechless. He came to save them, but he was actually wrong. Boohoo… What was this! These two fellows were really difficult to deal with! Zhu Furong, who dared to provoke them, must have acc.u.mulated the bad luck of eight lifetimes.
"It"s good that you know." Leng Ruoxue nodded.
"How long do you intend to stay in the prison?" Lan Ming asked curiously after understanding.
"I don"t know. There"s food and water here, and it saves money. It"s much better than staying at an inn," Leng Ruoxue said honestly.
"…"
"Are you that poor?" Lan Ming rolled his eyes in disdain.
"Yes, we have to think of a way to earn money." Leng Ruoxue pretended to be pitiful.
"Uh! Have you thought of a way yet?" Lan Ming asked curiously.
"Yes, I"ll wait for the compensation from the city lord"s mansion. I"ll stay here and won"t leave if I don"t receive compensation," Leng Ruoxue said very seriously. As the saying went, it was easy to invite a G.o.d but difficult to send one away!
"Okay, I support you," Lan Ming said very cooperatively as a few drops of cold sweat dripped down his forehead. He finally knew that he could provoke G.o.ds and ghosts but never these two fellows because they would definitely let the people who provoked them suffer a loss.
"Thank you, President!" Leng Ruoxue said with a smile.
"Uh, you"re welcome. Just let me know if you need anything. After all, you are mystics from my a.s.sociation," Lan Ming said in a very friendly tone.
Leng Ruoxue became paranoid after hearing Lan Ming"s words and asked bluntly, "One who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions. President Lan, why are you being so good to us?"
"Uh! What goal can I have? You"re registered in my a.s.sociation, so it"s only right that I protect you!" Lan Ming said matter-of-factly.
"President Lan, don"t bother lying in front of us. We aren"t three-year-old children. Just say it directly. If it"s not too difficult, we can consider it. But your remuneration has to satisfy me," Leng Ruoxue said bluntly.
"Uh, since you"ve mentioned it, I really have something. However, this has nothing to do with coming to save you!" Lan Ming explained. He didn"t want them to misunderstand that he wanted to save them to use them.
"It doesn"t matter if it"s related. As long as your remuneration satisfies me, and it"s within my capabilities, doing it won"t be a loss!" Leng Ruoxue said nonchalantly. After her brother and the others came out of seclusion, they would have to spend a lot more money, so she had to think of a way to earn more money.
"Uh, you don"t have to worry about the remuneration. The last thing our Mystic a.s.sociation needs is money," Lan Ming said. Alas! This was the first time he had seen a mystic like Leng Ruoxue who lacked money!
"That"s good. President Lan, what do you want us to do?" Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.
"There will be a compet.i.tion between mystics in a month. I hope you can partic.i.p.ate on behalf of the Windless City"s Mystic a.s.sociation," Lan Ming explained.
"The rewards for the compet.i.tion are very generous!" he added.
"Oh, what are the rewards?" Leng Ruoxue asked with interest. If the rewards were good, she would definitely partic.i.p.ate. If not, then the remuneration would have to be generous. Otherwise, she wouldn"t help.
"First place will receive a reward of a hundred million purple coins and a physical reward. It will definitely satisfy you." Lan Ming knew what this little woman wanted, so he didn"t beat around the bush.
"A hundred million? The Mystic a.s.sociation is indeed very rich." Leng Ruoxue praised. Well, I have to partic.i.p.ate in this compet.i.tion, but…
"I"m only at the Mystic level. What are my chances of winning if I partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion?" Leng Ruoxue continued asking.
"Don"t worry. This compet.i.tion only allows Elementary Mystics and below to partic.i.p.ate. This is a compet.i.tion to select talents for the Mystic a.s.sociation, so the level of the mystics partic.i.p.ating won"t be too high. With your strength, it won"t be a problem for you to be in the top three," Lan Ming said confidently.
"President Lan, we are only Mystics, but there are Elementary Mystics in the compet.i.tion. So I"m really curious where your confidence comes from?" Leng Ruoxue couldn"t help asking.
"I"ve seen many mystics, but this is the first time I"ve seen someone as abnormal as you," Lan Ming said honestly. He had been thinking about this issue for the past few days, but he couldn"t understand how someone with such abnormal talent could exist in the world.
"Thank you for the compliment. In fact, we"re pretty average," Leng Ruoxue said very modestly.
"…" Lan Ming was speechless again. If you"re ordinary, then what are others? Should they just die?
Lan Ming calmed down and continued, "By the way, what about your grandfather? You"ll need at least five people to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion, so they need to partic.i.p.ate too."
