Chapter 1456 There“s Only One Chance
“Lord Qian won’t give ti.” 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 ti, 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 seed 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 ti was not well executed.
“Why should I refuse what has been given to ?” Ling Lan responded coldly.
“However, at the sa ti, you also paid the price for it in ti. You clearly had ti to prepare for it.” Number Five, a person who disliked taking any risks, didn’t like Ling Lan’s extrely reckless way of doing things.
“What’s destined to co will co 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 regardless of risk, and perhaps sothing magical might happen.”
“For others, one or two years are indeed useless, but for you, with the virtual ti dinsion 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 ti dinsion machine will only help sense the catalyst to advance the first ti I use it. If I don’t succeed in my first try, then the subsequent trials would only help 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. “Sotis, fighting against the tide doesn’t an 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 eting 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 dinsional 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 dinsional tear without looking back.
Boom! The dinsional tear crackled the mont Ling Lan went in. It was then the dinsional 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 ti 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 judgnt., and without proper judgent, 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 co out and affect Ling Lan’s decision.
“Number Nine, the rule of the dinsion 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 the most.” Number Five’s smile beca even sweeter. Even his eyes were smiling. The originally cold smile actually looked beautiful at that mont. 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...”
