Chapter 187: Lan Xuanyu's choice!
Lan Xuanyu, you She lifted her head sharply; everything she saw was blurry. In the next instant, there was a strong hand around her neck.
Lan Xuanyu, what are you doing? she said a bit incoherently. The tightening grip felt like it was about to drain all of her strength.
Lan Xuanyu said indifferently, Nobody can insult my brothersLiu Feng is my brother and so is Qian Lei. Thats right, you have your teammates and want to gain experience to help them, but I have my partners too and I am responsible for them. If not for my decision, we wouldnt have to save you at all and could have let them kill you, then take all their experience for ourselves. You know as well as we do that with our battle power, we could have definitely done that. Alas, it was also because of this wrong decision of mine that resulted in the loss of what was supposed to be ours, since you snatched it away. Your teams experience certainly isnt as much as Li Yaomings, so even if we kill you, the total experience will still be lower than what we were supposed to get. This was my mistake and I must take responsibility for it.
Ye Lingtong, listen well, your decision today made it impossible for us to be friends again, let alone partners. You betrayed our trust, and in the future, well go our separate ways. Goodbye.
A sudden realization hit Ye Lingtong and her eyes widened as she scread, Dont you dare
Lan Xuanyu closed his eyes, a hint of hesitation appearing on his face. Even Liu Feng, who was next to him, was a little worried and whispered, Xuanyu, you
Kacha! Lan Xuanyus wrist jerked hard, and he broke Ye Lingtongs neck.
In a flash of white light, Ye Lingtong disappeared and a thick red glow went into Lan Xuanyus body.
On the other side, Qian Lei, who had just completed the replication, was taken aback too. He looked at Lan Xuanyu in shock. Xuanyu, this isnt a good idea, is it? How are we going to answer the class when we return?
Lan Xuanyu closed his eyes, his chest undulating. After so ti, he slowly cald down.
Sorry, it was my fault. Its my responsibility, so I will bear it, he said seriously.
Liu Fengs gaze was sowhat complicated. When Lan Xuanyu called them his brothers, it had moved him deeply. What nonsense are you talking about? What do you an your responsibility and youll bear it? Arent we a team? We are a team, so the decisions were made together. Whatever responsibility there is, we should bear it together.
Frenzie is right; there is no you or , only us. Qian Lei walked over and patted Lan Xuanyu on the shoulder.
In truth, killing Ye Lingtong, even in the simulated world, was quite a huge blow to Lan Xuanyu.
He took a deep breath and mumbled, I had to do it, I didnt have any other choice. She betrayed us and stole the experience. How could soone like that be our temporary teammate? Its like having a ticking ti bomb with us that could be a threat to us during the qualifier moving forward. If it only affected
alone, perhaps I would have still brushed it off, but she affected our entire team. Master Yin ntioned before that in the battlefield, the scariest part will never co from facing our enemies but from the friendly forces behind our backs. I cannot entrust our backs to soone like her or let her continue like that. If I gave in to her this ti, then maybe in the future, in the real world, on a real battlefield, she would do the sa thing again. Only then, she might really die. I hope she will learn sothing through this incident. As for the academy, if soone has to be responsible
Before Lan Xuanyu could continue, Liu Feng and Qian Lei spoke up at the sa ti. We will take responsibility for it together.
Lan Xuanyu turned and looked at them, the pain from killing Ye Lingtong dissipating quite a bit. He told himself that this was a simulated world, after all.
At the sa ti, he examined his own conscience and asked himself, if this was the real world, would he be able to do this when faced with the sa situation?
He gave a negative answer without hesitation and laughed bitterly because of it too.
At that mont, in the forest a distance away, there ca a series of noises all of a sudden, causing the trio to wake up from their current emotions. They didnt dare to delay further; they imdiately jogged to the huge tree nearby and climbed up quickly.
Having consud so energy from the recent battle, they were no longer at their peak conditions.
The sound travelled very quickly. The mont the trio clambered up the tree, there was a swish and then a bulky figure stood in the place where they were before.
The bulky figure landed on the ground, letting out a bang.
Seeing it, the trio that was in hiding was stunned. It was the 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape that they protected for a night while it was cultivating.
Compared to before, it looked like it had grown even larger and its gold hair had fully grown again. With the movent of its body, gold light flowed like waves. Its eyes brimd with life and its pupils turned gold too. These should be the changes brought about by absorbing the Gold-eyed Leopard Skull.
It was also because of this pair of gold eyes that they could be very sure that it was the sa 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape from before.
Qian Lei looked at Lan Xuanyu, who nodded at him.
Qian Lei then released his Spiritual Power and tried to communicate with the Gold Silk Ape.
Roar roar! The Gold Silk Ape let out a few deep roars and waved towards the three of them, the action very human.
The three people looked at each other before squatting down.
It said that it is here to fulfil its promise and it is very sorry for making us wait so long, Qian Lei said.
Lan Xuanyu looked at the 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape in front with a complex gaze and whispered, It seems like sotis, soul beasts are better than humans, huh!
This Gold Silk Ape ca back to fulfil its promise while in contrast, Ye Lingtong acted for her personal gains. This was really bad, so how could the trio not be overco with emotion at this mont?
Thank you. Youre not late, so you dont have to be apologetic. Now is the critical mont, Lan Xuanyu said in a low voice.
The 1,000-year Gold Silk Ape let out a low roar and nodded towards him.
Lan Xuanyu said, Qian Lei, ask it to keep a close watch of our surroundings. Well decide again once we regain our strength.
Sure.
With the Gold Silk Ape looking out, the trio hurriedly ditated and recovered what they had expended just now. This was also Lan Xuanyus strategy; no matter where or when, they must be in peak conditions.
It was obvious through their encounter with Ye Lingtong just now that if they were weak, they were likely to be completely annihilated. This had nothing to do with their strength.
After the trio recovered to their peak condition, Lan Xuanyu thought for a while and said, It seems like we have to start looking for people.
Looking for people? Qian Lei repeated doubtfully.
En. Lan Xuanyu nodded silently. A total of 100 teams entered this place, and although it isnt a small number, to bump into each other in this vast Star Dou Forest is akin to fishing for a pin in the big sea. Yet, in such a short period of ti, we managed to bump into Ye Lingtong and Li Yaomings team. What does this an? It ans that once weve entered the last three days, Shrek Academy might make us encounter one another. In other words, although we dont know how theyre going to do it, all the teams may be limited to a certain area and there might be a high chance of eting.
If I have to guess, during these seven days, the first four days are to let us accumulate points while the next three days are to let us engage in fights with different teams and compete for points. From there, the final rankings are decided. Through this process, well deal with soul beasts and Soul Masters, and have a better look at each teams overall strength. Hence, for the next two days, our focus shouldnt be on soul beasts but being on the watch for other teams.
