1384 Destruction!
It was because of this possibility that the Lawless Lands was still in chaos. Even though the 13 Lords had an alliance, they were still at war on the surface. Perhaps, this was also a way to send a message to the other countries that were monitoring the Lawless Lands. The Lawless Lands was really chaotic and wouldn't pose a threat to them.
So what if they were spies who were loyal to their countries? Their youth and even their entire lives were spent in the Lawless Lands. Humans had feelings. As time passed, some of their feelings would deviate. When they reached a high position, it was inevitable that they would have some selfish desires. Naturally, they would choose the method they thought was better to deal with it.
"The 13 Lords are very interesting." Ling Lan smiled. "We have all the time in the world. Take your time and we'll find out sooner or later."
Tang Ningyu calmed down. He took a deep breath and said, "Lieutenant General Ling, I hope you can think about this carefully. You're one of the 13 Lords now, but you won't affect the structure of the Lawless Lands. Thus, the other countries won't make a move yet. However, once they find out that you have the intention to unify the Lawless Lands, they will definitely do whatever it takes to get rid of you. There won't be any accidents. "
"Then, I won't let them know." Ling Lan looked at Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran with a faint smile. "Are you going to send this news back to the Federation?"
Tang Ningyu pursed his lips. His gaze was complicated. For a moment, he didn't know what to do. After remaining silent for a while, he replied, "My orders are to protect you. I'm not in charge of the spies and spies."
In the end, he still lost to his feelings for Pei Shaoyun. They had only known each other for a short month. After that, he met the real Pei Shaoyun a few times. He shouldn't have such deep feelings for Pei Shaoyun. However, in the depths of his mind, that innocent smile and trust in his eyes always appeared when he wanted to give up on Pei Shaoyun. He couldn't do anything to hurt the real Pei Shaoyun.
'Forget it, forget it. I'll just pretend that I don't know anything.' He wasn't the one monitoring the Lawless Lands anyway. Why should he be a busybody?
Plus, even if Ling Lan managed to fool the other party and successfully unify the Lawless Lands, it would be Ling Lan's own ability.
Tang Ningyu decided to stand by and watch. As for Mu Chaoran, he was far less loyal to the Federation than Tang Ningyu was to Long Xiang. Of course, he would not report Ling Lan's matter to Long Xiang. He had long decided to pretend that he did not hear anything.
Of course, a ruthless person like Ling Lan would never give them the chance to leak the news.
The two of them understood this, which was also the reason why they chose not to do anything. Since he could become a guest of honor, he shouldn't be so stupid as to become a prisoner. Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran were both smart people. They had never been associated with idiots.
After staying in the Lawless Lands for three months, Li Lanfeng finally managed to gather all the resources that Ling Lan needed with Xia Qingyi's help.
He was eager to return home so he left the port that night and rushed all the way back. When he arrived at the Lawless Lands, it was already five months after he left Ling Lan.
The moment Li Lanfeng arrived at the port of the Lawless Lands, he summoned the person in charge of Lord Gen's forces stationed at the port to guard the three transport ships he brought with him. Then, he rushed all the way to the rainbow palace.
This was the first time he hadn't seen Ling Lan for so long. Li Lanfeng missed Ling Lan so much that he almost went crazy. He finally understood why a day apart felt like three years.
He rushed straight to Ling Lan's bedroom. He knew that if Ling Lan didn't have anything to do, she would be cultivating or resting in her bedroom.
"Ling Lan!" Li Lanfeng pushed open the door and shouted happily.
"Ah, Big Brother Li, you're back." A melodious voice rang out.
Li Lanfeng stopped in his tracks. The joy on his face disappeared and his expression turned cold.
However, in the next second, a smile appeared on his face again. His expression became gentle. "Oh, it's Luo Chao."
Yes, the Jialan Ship must have arrived. He missed Ling Lan so much that he forgot about the Jialan Ship. Only when Luo Chao and Jialan worked together could they send the resources to the Lawless Lands in time.
"Why are you in Boss's bedroom?" This was what Li Lanfeng was most concerned about. Even if they were engaged, they had to avoid suspicion, right?
"Boss asked me and Xuya to move here and live together," Luo Chao said shyly. Although they knew that Boss was a girl, other people didn't know that. If they moved in together, other people would definitely think that they were Boss's women.
In reality, that was indeed the case.
Luo Chao's words made Li Lanfeng's heart clench violently. He felt that his heart wouldn't be able to withstand such a blow. It was truly painful.
"This is really …" He gritted his teeth but couldn't say the word 'congratulations'.
Li Lanfeng didn't say it out loud but Luo Chao understood what Li Lanfeng wanted to say. Her face instantly burned up. Fortunately, she still remembered Ling Lan's instructions. She hurriedly said, "Boss asked you to go to the study room to see him."
Although Ling Lan's decision caused them to be misunderstood, Luo Chao and Han Xuya knew that Boss was protecting them. There were too many powerful warriors in the rainbow palace. They were all arrogant and unruly. They were the former Lord Gen's men. Currently, they were afraid of Boss's terrifying strength so they didn't dare to do anything. However, they might do something stupid. For example, they might challenge Ling Lan's subordinates and attack Ling Lan's prestige.
As for the two of them, their strength was slightly weaker, and they were definitely excellent targets. When one's strength wasn't enough, one's status was extremely important.
When Li Lanfeng heard this, he forced himself to endure the pain in his heart. He turned and walked into Ling Lan's study room.
The moment he entered the room, he heard Ling Lan's cold voice. "I felt some movement just now so I knew you were back."
Li Lanfeng felt warmth in his heart. His throbbing heart seemed to have been saved by Ling Lan's words.
"I … I didn't expect both of your fiancées to come." Li Lanfeng had already lost his composure. He didn't choose to report to Luo Chao. Instead, he insisted on clarifying something.
"Luo Chao came. It would be strange if Xuya didn't come." Ling Lan looked at Li Lanfeng in surprise. With Li Lanfeng's intelligence, he was able to deduce this easily.
"I thought that Zilong wouldn't let her go." Li Lanfeng couldn't control his desire to destroy Luo Chao so he acted decisively.
Ling Lan was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Li Lanfeng held his forehead in frustration. He seemed to regret blurting out those words.
"I know that Xuya likes Zilong. Could it be that Zilong likes her too?" Ling Lan was pleasantly surprised. Of course, she didn't want her two younger sisters to be a fake couple with her. If there was someone who wasn't afraid of offending her and wasn't afraid of being beaten to death by her and still liked them, she would be more than happy.
However, although Ling Lan's expression was richer than before, the more her emotions fluctuated, the colder her expression became. It was harder for people to see her true feelings.
Hence, in Li Lanfeng's eyes, Ling Lan was angry at this possibility.
As expected, Ling Lan liked women. They were her two fiancées.
