Chapter 394 (1/2)

Defeat (1)

“He’ll be fine. He may look like a useless kid sometimes but that’s just because he’s lazy. If he decides to fight, even we might not be able to win him,” said Ye Lanyu.

“Ye Lang, don’t you dare fool around. Take this seriously!” Ye Zhiqing’s instructions were simple.

“I know, you’re all so annoying. Anyone not involved in this please return to your seats, I am about to compete! Right, how many people are you sending to fight with you?” Ye Lang chased all of the ‘irrelevant’ people away.

“... Just me. If I lose, we will admit defeat this round!”

“Oh, then that would be simple! Everyone, please leave, Fatty, you should pack up and leave this area too. You know my habits…” said Ye Lang.

“I understand! I’ve already packed up all my stuff, I don’t want to be caught in your crossfire,” answered Zhen Xiaoyan. She’d immediately packed up the moment Ye Lang agreed to compete.

Zhen Xiaoyan was the most familiar with Ye Lang’s alchemy abilities. She’d already suffered since many years ago!

“Little Brother, be reasonable, alright? Lord Feng Xing, it would be best if you get your men to strengthen the defensive alchemy formations in this area. Even better if you used the formations that can withstand banned hexes and magic,” Ye Lanyu said solemnly as if a storm was coming.

“...” Feng Xing fell silent for a moment, then asked in a small voice, “Are you sure it’ll be THAT serious?”

“This is necessary, you’ll understand later!” said the seventh princess.

“Alright, I’ll make the preparations!” nodded Feng Xing.

“??” Fei’s eyes were filled with questions. What was going on?

“Little Fei, come, let’s have a chat,” Ye Lanyu said, using the same nickname. After the fight, she felt like they were a lot closer as friends. People often said the best way to make friends was to fight.

This is because you’d clearly see a person’s personality through a fight -- that cannot be hidden from the opponent!

Based on Fei’s fighting style, they could tell she was a straightforward, honest person. And without this fight, no one would’ve known how powerful she truly was.

Although she’d always been bold, she’d never once used her martial arts skills against someone else.

“Alright! We should compete again sometime, that was a great fight!” nodded Fei.

Honey, you’re going to have so many opportunities to fight if you spend time with them…

Once everyone left, there was an obvious problem.

“What is this? Why is Little Xin here?” Edward pointed at Little Xin still by his side. She didn’t leave.

“What do you mean?” asked Ye Lang. He didn’t think it was a problem.

“Are you letting her fight me?”

“If there is a need, I will consider…” Ye Lang was still very casual about it. Little Xin was Ye Lang’s most powerful alchemy weapon. Letting her fight would be a valuable addition to his strength.

However, not many people knew what she was. Everyone still felt like he was relying on a lady to protect himself!

“Little Brother, let Little Xin protect us. You don’t need Little Xin to deal with him. They don’t know who Little Xin is…” Ye Lanyu requested for Little Xin to leave to make her brother look more like a respectable man and for his opponent to battle with full satisfaction.

“Alright!” grunted Ye Lang. Little Xin left to protect Ye Lanyu and the rest under his command.

“That’ll do. Let’s begin!” Ye Lang looked at Edward.
