Chapter 217: Spies (1/2)
Based on what he knew regarding Luo Lan, he might not be able to trust his young man fully. However, he could make use of him. After all, Luo Lan's personality conflicted greatly with the way Wang Luo Sect raised their disciples.
He wanted to take this gamble.
Because of that, Lin Xiao dared to ask Luo Lan openly and allowed him to hear what he was talking about with others.
Luo Lan was stunned. He looked at Lin Xiao and then narrowed his eyes. ”Are you sure you're going to ask me something like that? Wang Luo Sect disciples know no loyalty and there's no guarantee that I wouldn't stab you on the back after you say something like that. What do you think the sect will do if they know that you plan to go against them?”
”You won't report it.”
”What…?”
”Because you don't care for the sect.”
That sentence hit him deep in his heart. Yes. Luo Lan never cared too much about the sect. All he cared was simply how to fight and then getting stronger. It didn't need to be Wang Luo Sect. Because of that, what he wanted from the beginning was to enter Sun Dragon Sect.
Wang Luo Sect was only a tool for him to step up.
Luo Lan grunted. He waved his hand, acting rascally like he did before. ”What do you even know of me? You don't know anything, Lin Xiao.”
Lin Xiao shrugged. ”I don't. but I know that you never act seriously when you're in Wang Luo Sect. if not. You won't be provoking that woman, Bai… Bi, Bai, uh, what's her name?”
He had no intention to keep the name of unimportant person in his mind. Even though he still wanted to take his revenge on her, he had no intention to keep her name in his heart and only when he saw her again later would he remember this grudge.
Of course, as time passed, he might even forget about her completely because it would beneath him to deal with her. Lin Xiao was confident that with his rage of progress, that woman would be long left in the dust by him.
”It's Bai Xin.”
”Yes, that woman. Anyway, if you help me out, I'll help you to get stronger.”
Luo Lan arched his eyebrows. ”You can't help me, you…”
In his hand, Lin Xiao had taken out a bottle of medicine. It was the extract of herbs that was used to make the medicine bath that Lin Yun prepared in case Lin Xiao had taken in someone else who needed it in the future.
”This is the Strengthening medicinal bath. It might be painful but I'm sure you have heard what the result from this might be.”
Luo Lan looked at the bottle in disbelief. What he knew was that people have to insert the herbs over and over and there was no way it could be made into medicine. Unless….
”It's the second one?”
There were two different medicine that was used to strengthen one's body physically. The second method was less painful and naturally yield less result, but it was more commonly used. Still, the price of herbs was so expensive and there might not guarantee that it was successful when an alchemist concocted it.
