1376 A Promise!
It was late at night, but the rainbow palace was still brightly lit.
There were many people stationed in the rainbow palace, but today, it was strangely quiet. No one was moving around.
Those who were slightly stronger might have realized that there was not a single person in this enormous rainbow palace.
Lord Gen was in a good mood today, so he decided to give the entire palace a day off. He let everyone go back to their homes and enjoy their time with their families. Those who didn't have any relatives were given a day off too. They could go out and fool around. In short, Lord Gen didn't want anyone to disturb him tonight.
Although they didn't understand why Lord Gen would make such a decision, it was still good to have a holiday. The maids and guards happily packed their bags and went home. The team leaders and guardians who had strong combat abilities were also brought to Jialan Ship by Ji Ming and Yu Shangfei.
Ling Lan sat alone on the ice chair in the main hall. Her right hand was supporting her forehead as she closed her eyes slightly. She seemed to be resting but also seemed to have fallen asleep.
Little White was lying on her thigh with its belly turned up. It was sleeping with its limbs spread out. There was even a droplet of saliva hanging from the corner of its mouth. Just as it was about to fall, Little White sucked it back in.
At that moment, a green sprout suddenly appeared on the ground somewhere in the main hall. In the blink of an eye, it grew to the height of a person. Then, it slowly turned into a human figure.
He was wearing a simple green robe. His long black hair fell naturally, revealing a clean and handsome face. He was around 30 years old. He wasn't much older than Ling Lan. There was a smile on his face. He looked very fresh and had a hint of warmth. The originally cold hall also became a little warmer because of this person's appearance.
Ling Lan seemed to have felt the change in temperature. She slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the unexpected person, her expression didn't change at all. She said calmly, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Should I call you Lord Qian? Or Lord Kun? "
"You knew I was coming?" The person asked in surprise. "You can call me Lord Kun."
"Cooperating with someone is a one-time deal. As the leader of the 13 Lords of the Lawless Lands, one of the Lords of Qian and Kun has to step forward to confirm whether I'm qualified to cooperate with them." Ling Lan lowered her right hand and slowly sat up straight. She looked at the other party coldly.
"No wonder you wanted to release everyone from the rainbow palace." Lord Kun revealed a look of realization.
"Isn't that what you want as well? I'm just playing along. "Ling Lan smiled.
"Clap, clap, clap …" Lord Kun laughed as well. He raised his hand and slowly clapped. "I didn't expect the Soul Realm to nurture someone like you. I'm impressed."
"I didn't expect that Lord Kun, one of the leaders of the 13 Lords of the Lawless Lands, and a young talent like you … To enter the Lawless Lands, our Soul Realm is still a few steps behind you." Ling Lan smiled faintly as if she understood something.
"You're thinking too much. I was nurtured by the Lawless Lands. I'll be a member of the Lawless Lands for the rest of my life," Lord Kun said calmly. "No other faction can touch the Lawless Lands. If the Soul Realm has such thoughts, I advise you to turn back as soon as possible. Otherwise, you won't be able to return."
"You don't have to worry about that, Lord Kun. The Soul Realm has never thought of becoming the ruler of the Lawless Lands. The Soul Realm just wants to leave a way out for themselves in the Lawless Lands," Ling Lan said fearlessly.
"Is this the promise of the Soul Realm?" Lord Kun's eyes flashed with a green light. A faint domain concept that belonged to him silently activated.
This was a vow. Only imperial stage formidable warriors and above could come into contact with the spirit of speech concept. In this concept, the words spoken to each other would become a vow. They would be bound by the laws of the world. Once violated, there would be a backlash from the vow.
How could Ling Lan not notice this? However, she still gave Lord Kun the vow he wanted without hesitation. "That's right. This is the promise of the Soul Realm. The Soul Realm doesn't want to become the ruler of the Lawless Lands. The Soul Realm only wants the Lawless Lands to give them a territory that can accommodate the Soul Realm."
"Lord Gen's territory is enough?" Lord Kun pressed on.
"Yes. The Soul Realm only wants Lord Gen's territory." Ling Lan looked straight at him without any hesitation.
"Good! The vow stands. " The green light in Lord Kun's eyes flashed again. Above his and Ling Lan's heads, a vow and a vow appeared. Then, the vow slowly sank into their heads. This meant that the vow between the two of them had been established in the laws of the world. They would be bound by the laws of the world. Once someone violated the vow, they would be judged and punished by the laws of the world.
Lord Kun was satisfied. This vow didn't affect the 13 Lords at all. It mainly restricted Ling Lan's side.
Ling Lan didn't care. The vow with the 13 Lords was the Soul Realm, not her.
"Tomorrow, the 13 Lords will officially announce to the Lawless Lands that you will be the new Lord Gen." Lord Kun finally said what Ling Lan wanted to hear the most.
"However, in terms of resources, you have to satisfy our needs." Lord Kun immediately made a request.
"We can take care of the resources, but the payment must be in place," Ling Lan replied.
In terms of resources, Ling Lan wasn't worried. Firstly, she had the person in charge of the Chaotic Lands and the 18th district of the Soul Realm, Xia Qingyi, to help her prepare the resources. If Xia Qingyi was smart enough, he would use this opportunity to get the position of the Emperor of the Soul Realm. Then, her position as the representative of the Soul Realm would become a reality. It would be perfectly justifiable for her to cooperate with the Soul Realm.
Secondly, if the Chaotic Lands or the Soul Realm had something they couldn't provide, such as high-end weapons and ammunition, the Lingtian Independent Army would be able to solve it.
Thirdly, Ling Lan believed that Little Four would definitely wake up. It was just a matter of time. Once Little Four woke up, she would be able to run her and Little Four's business empire. At that time, what couldn't she get?
These three points gave Ling Lan enough confidence to agree to Lord Kun's conditions. Of course, Ling Lan wasn't an idiot. She would definitely earn as much money as she could.
"That's not a problem. Even if we don't have money, we can still exchange for other things." Lord Kun smiled. It was obvious that he didn't want to give her money.
"That's fine. However, this price is half of the market price." Ling Lan didn't hesitate to bargain.
"No, you're too ruthless." Lord Kun obviously wouldn't agree. That was simply extortion.
"We can't make a losing deal." Ling Lan said calmly, "Going back and forth, no matter if it's manpower or resources, it's double. This loss can only be deducted from the resources you provide."
"Don't you make money from the resources you bring?" Lord Kun said calmly, "You can't be too greedy. Otherwise, if you anger everyone, the gains won't make up for the losses."
