Lu Siya looked puzzled. “Lin Chuan, what’s all this about Demonic Halberd Pigs and Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons? I don’t understand. Are you too wounded? Did your brain get fried by the spirit energy magnetic field interference?”
“Perhaps I’ve been pretending to be ignorant for too long, so I’ve never asked you a question.” Lin Chuan turned around and stared at Lu Siya. He asked slowly and clearly, “In your heart, do you treat me like a dog?”
Lu Siya could not believe what he said, “Lin Chuan, what are you saying? How would I possibly think of you as a dog? We’re best friends!”
“Are we?” Lin Chuan laughed in a tragic manner. “From the moment we met Shen Yulong underground, he mocked me multiple times that I’m your loyal dog, and you never spoke up to refute him.
“When we were in school, your rich friends mocked me multiple times that I’m a pet kept by the Lu family and am the same as your personal bodyguard, Lu Fengyin. They said we’re just two loyal hunting dogs to you. Have you ever defended me against that?”
“How could I not have?” Lu Siya said anxiously. “Back then, I always fought against Shen Yulong because of you. I told them repeatedly that you’re on my side, and I will definitely protect you. I’d skin whoever touches even a strand of your hair.”
“That’s where the problem is,” Lin Chuan said. “Siya, right from the start, you never understood one thing. I’m not your dog, and neither am I on your side. I belong to myself.”
“… You’re sick, Lin Chuan. The radiation from the spirit energy magnetic field is affecting your brain, and you’re really sick. You might even be suffering through spirit energy deviation right now!”
Lu Siya spread her arms and tried to ease up the atmosphere. “It’s fine. Sky Pillar Corporation has the best medical equipment, and they specialize in treating illnesses in the head caused by radiation from crystal mines. You just need to calm down right now and let go of Shen Yulong. Come back to my side. It’ll be fine. Everything will be fine.”
Lin Chuan smiled. He continued tightening his grip, and his fingers turned into steel clamps, which closed on Shen Yulong’s throat so tightly that his eyes bulged out. His spine let out cracking sounds.
“Let him go!” Lu Siya became angry. “This is an order, let him go!”
“Look. You finally said what you’re really thinking,” Lin Chuan smiled and said, “If you don’t treat me as a loyal, obedient dog, how would you think that you have the right to order me around?”
“You…” Lu Siya became anxious and angry. Suddenly, she intersected her fingers and danced like a snake while chanting swiftly.
All the spikes that had entered Shen Yulong’s body suddenly retreated and fused with the ground.
Then, a sharp spike shot out from beside Lin Chuan to stab the arm he used to choke Shen Yulong.
Lin Chuan could only let go, but the spike still managed to break his skin.
Shen Yulong screeched, and like a balloon with all the air inside escaping, he instantly jumped more than ten meters away.
“You injured me for him?” Lin Chuan remained expressionless. With narrowed pupils, he observed the wound on his arm. It was not deep, but it was not light either. Once again, he laughed to himself. “That’s right. After all, you’re the same type of people. You’re all Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons.
“Even if Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons fight fiercely against each other and make each other bleed, they won’t just stand by and watch while a lowly, filthy, and stinking Demonic Halberd Pig crawls over them and tramples on the glory of the Crystalline Nine-headed Dragons.”
“Lin Chuan, snap out of it. Do you even know what you’re doing?!” When Lu Siya saw that he was injured by her own hand, she felt her heart ache for him, but she was also puzzled and angry. She gritted her teeth and said, “I don’t have a lot of friends, and you’re the most important among them. Stop forcing my hand!”
Shen Yulong scrambled more than ten meters away before he finally dared to stop and cover his neck while gasping for breath. In puzzlement, he watched Lin Chuan and Lu Siya. He could not understand what these two bastards were trying to do.
“Shen Yulong, don’t run away. I’m just going to ask you one question. Did you ask a mine explorer in white to make our wall collapse?” Lu Siya’s eyes were fixed on Lin Chuan, but the question was directed at Shen Yulong.
He was stunned. “What mine explorer in white? I don’t have anyone in white in my team.”
“That’s right. Mine explorers who venture underground seldom wear white, because they get dirty easily. When they do these sort of tricks in the dark, they don’t wish to stand out either.” Lu Siya’s pupils shrank bit by bit. As she stared at Lin Chuan, her expression filled with resentment and pain, and her voice trembled.
“Now, I can finally understand why there has been a voice in my heart shouting at me not to reveal my trump car, but unfortunately for me, I didn’t believe in my own instincts. Or rather, my trust for you suppressed my instincts of a Spirit Sensor!
“Lin Chuan, the white figure who made the wall collapse wasn’t Shen Yulong’s subordinate but your companion, right?”
Lin Chuan swiped at the blood and grime on his face.
This motion caused all the emotions that had been accumulating in him for years to be fully unleashed on his incredibly handsome face.
At that moment, he had become…
Meng Chao snuck a glance at Qin Hu, who was beside him.
At that moment, Lin Chuan had become uglier than Qin Hu.
“Why did you suddenly look at me?” Qin Hu asked.
“It’s nothing. Be quiet. All the people up there are bad guys. We have to be careful not to be discovered.”
As they spoke, something happened on the cliff again.
After catching his breath for a while, Shen Yulong recovered some strength, and he staggered toward the way back.
Lin Chuan and Lu Siya were busy being in a stalemate, so neither of them could divert their attention to deal with him.
