Chapter 711: Calculations (3)
“Like what I ntioned earlier, you cannot fathom his abilities!” said the Vermilion Bird Emperor. “Ye Lang, you’ve helped us a lot this ti. If there’s anything you want, just tell .”
At this mont, the emperor was utterly disappointed. Or perhaps he’d always been disappointed, this was just a confirmation.
“What do I want? Right, I am lacking so things. Let into the national reserves these few days, I’ll check if you have it,” said Ye Lang shalessly.
The national reserves? There were many valuable items in there after so many years. Everyone knew that no ordinary person could enter. At the sa ti, no ordinary person would even think of it.
Ye Lang was very shaless to demand such a thing!
“...Kid, you’re a shaless one indeed! Fine, you can pick sothing but don’t overdo it. You can have whatever you want!” The emperor shook his head helplessly. Ye Lang had indeed helped them and he’d already promised.
At the sa ti, he realised he’d never offered Ye Lang anything after his previous help. He could just reward him this ti.
“Hmmph! Do you think this ends here? Let tell you this, it isn’t over yet!” declared Xin Qing’s father. He clenched his teeth at the thought of such casual conversation between Ye Lang and the emperor.
He looked like he had a backup plan?
“Let tell you this. We had already anticipated this plan to fail so we have a second plan. We will all die together! The people outside will execute my plan soon, hahaha—-” Xin Qing’s father let out hysterical laughter. Everyone realised this matter was not as simple as they thought.
“What did you do?” Princess Longji frowned. This problem was going to be more troubleso.
“Haha, let tell you this. Half an hour ago, we activated the alchemy formations here that will blow up the entire palace! We spent decades preparing for this mont!”
“...”
Everyone fell silent.
The three major clans had prepared this for decades. Princess Longji and the rest hadn’t expected this. They paled, ready to escape.
At this mont, no one doubted him. If it weren’t true, what was the point of him saying that? The Xin clan wouldn’t waste their ti.
“It’ll be useless! You don’t have ti! I am only telling you this now so that you won’t have ti to run. We were supposed to retreat before this too!”
It was a suicide bomb. If their plan failed, they knew they would burden their entire clan. Might as well die together with the enemy.
As long as they all died, then their other clan mbers outside could still reap the rewards!
“Go!”
Everyone started to evacuate but soone noticed Ye Lang was spacing out.
It was normal because he was always so clueless.
Though he could sotis be surprising too!
“Ye Lang...”
“What!” answered Ye Lang, like he’d just woken up.
“What are you doing! Run!” Princess Longji and the rest quickly ca to Ye Lang, prepared to carry him.
“Ah! I rember! You all don’t have to run!” yelled Ye Lang loudly. Princess Longji stopped. Everyone looked at him.
“Oh yeah, we have this guy. Staying with this guy will be very safe! He’s an alchemy genius, he knows how to generate his legendary defensive alchemy formations.”
Everyone’s eyes brightened, approaching him because they rembered his Water Moon Mirror. He had the ultimate defence.
Under such circumstances, they weren’t likely to make it out. However, they could definitely live under his protection.
“Ye Lang, use your defensive alchemy formation now!” yelled the seventh princess imdiately.
“Why? That’s unnecessary!” Ye Lang shook his head.
“What? They’re not joking, they don’t need too. Look at them, they’re not moving. They’re all waiting to die.” Princess Longji pointed at the three clans. They looked like they were accepting death.
“When is your thing going to explode?” asked Ye lang with a grin.
“Now!” The three clans replied, stunned.
“What is ‘now’?” Ye Lang asked, still smiling.
“It should be... Just now? Wait, what’s going on? Was there a mistake in the alchemy formation?” Xin Qing’s father had the schedule, he realised the place should’ve exploded a few seconds ago.
“Let’s wait a bit then. Maybe it’s just a little slow!” Ye Lang chuckled.
“Yeah...”
Everyone cald down in this awkward situation. They weren’t ordinary folks. They sensed that sothing had changed. The explosion wouldn’t happen.
Ti passed. In the end, there was no explosion.
“What happened? Did we make a mistake? No way, we were so careful!”
“Alright, cousin, ti to catch them all and chop off their heads! It’s ti for my performance!” Ye Lang chuckled.
“?? Little troublemaker, what just happened?” asked Princess Longji. Everyone also wanted to ask him. There was a sudden threat but it disappeared just as abruptly.
“I was roasting chicken wings in the palace gardens a few days ago, rember? I noticed sothing, which was an alchemy formation that could destroy the entire palace. Since I was bored, I helped deactivate it for you. That’s why there was so much smoke! You don’t have to thank ...” said Ye Lang.
“...”
Everyone fell silent. They didn’t know sothing like this could happen.
“Why didn’t you tell us!!”
“I wanted to, but I was interrupted and forgot... I just rembered!”
“...”
“You little jerk, I feel like killing you!”
