Chapter 188 - Valiant Battle (VI)

Editors: Humu & Kitty

Ah Lan’s words almost touched Abyss. He always felt that Ah Lan meant something. He could not help smiling inwardly. He always knew that Feng YuLan was a gentle person, but he never thought that he could be so gentle.

“Alright, but no matter how determined you are, you can’t stop me.”

Ah Lan replied, “I don’t need to stop you.”

Now that he had clearly said it, Abyss felt that he did not need to disguise anything, so he asked straightforwardly, “Have you recognized me?”

Ah Lan replied, “You are very easy to identify although this feels extremely inconceivable and the contrast between what you look like now and what you looked like previously is a big difference! Also, I can’t imagine how you turned into this and how you are able to appear here.”

Abyss did not answer Ah Lan’s question. He skillfully took advantage of his body, raised his eyelids, and looked at him with watery eyes: “Will you help me, please?”

Ah Lan seemed helpless, “Don’t pretend to be young. Alright, I don’t know the reason why, but I will help you.”

Abyss could not help worrying. Ah Lan’s gentleness made him feel moved, but this gentleness was too worthless. “If you help me, it means you’re betraying your team, betraying your comrades.”

“Are you not my comrade?” Ah Lan was staring at Abyss.

Abyss immediately admitted, somewhat frustratedly, “Of course I am your comrade...... but not now.”

Abyss’s words made Ah Lan a little angry. His anger was like a string of bubbles rolling up from the bottom of the water, floating to the surface and surfacing with a bang. Although these bubbles were very small, a string of bubbles constantly surfacing would inevitably turn up a magnificent tide in Feng YuLan’s heart.

Therefore, Ah Lan questioned the child. His face was stiff, and he said in an angry tone: “Why not? What is the meaning of comradery you have in your mind? Are you considered a stranger to me when you leave the team? Or could it be that after wearing a mask, you can pretend you don’t know me? Or maybe, you can use me like a doll to make me do this and that!?”

Feng YuLan was still very angry. No matter what kind of hardship Abyss had been through, he did not think that the other party would make use of Ah Lan so openly and naturally and even use skills to control him. This kind of behavior made his heart chill, especially when Ah Lan had already discovered the real identity of the other party.

Abyss felt a bit weak, and he floated backward in fear of making Ah Lan more angry. He rarely made such a concession now. However, in front of his former best friend, Abyss could not help showing his weak side. He almost shrunk into a ball, trying to make himself appear smaller.

In an agreeable tone, he said, “I’m sorry. Don’t be angry. Originally, I didn’t want to do this......”

However, Abyss also knew that he had to do this. The secret chamber required him to defeat this team, to win, to treat his former companions in the way that he treated the enemy. Therefore, he must do so, and he must not leave any flaws to allow the secret chamber to have a hold on him. Yes&#k2026;&#k2026; he had to satisfy the secret chamber.

“I can’t let him... discover me...”

Abyss shook his head. He couldn’t say any more. He did not know how to open his mouth. Feng YuLan was surprised by the series of inexplicable things he said. He just wanted to ask Abyss what ‘he’ meant. However, Abyss had already noticed that Luo Jian and the stalker over there had already seen the commotion, so Abyss waved his hand to make himself invisible again.

“Ah Lan, why are you here?” Luo Jian, who was here, had noticed the sudden appearance of Feng YuLan. Luo Jian immediately escaped from the stalker’s arms nervously. Later, he found that Ah Lan had just appeared out of thin air because previously, he did not even feel Ah Lan’s breath.

However, although Luo Jian could not feel it, the stalker around him had been staring at Feng YuLan thoughtfully. The stalker felt that there was another person’s temperature in the air, which was extremely warm.

Ah Lan was still troubled over what Abyss had said just now. He guessed that what Abyss faced was something very terrifying and difficult to deal with. It was so difficult to deal with that the already-powerful Abyss would show that kind of tense look. He seemed to have been acting carefully. Every step he took must be carefully considered before he acted.

But what was it? Something that could make Abyss feel nervous, could make him show that kind of expression.

It was probably because Ah Lan’s thoughts had been wandering around that Luo Jian over here had to speak out louder to interrupt Ah Lan’s dazed state. At last, he was pulled back to his senses by Luo Jian. He looked up, seeing Luo Jian, surprised to find that he had begun to see the shadow of someone in the current Luo Jian. Luo Jian was standing there within reach.

Luo Jian had already felt the look in Ah Lan’s eyes. When the other looked at him, he seemed to be looking at a place far, far away that he couldn’t touch......

Luo Jian almost wanted to ask Ah Lan. He wanted to ask him: What are you looking at?

But Ah Lan interrupted Luo Jian’s desire to speak and said, “Some of the enemies have fled, but Duan Li and company have been held back by two other stalkers, so I came to take a look at how the situation here is. Did ‘God’ say where the exit was?”

Luo Jian shook his head regretfully and glanced at the stalker. “No, the stalker killed him.”

“He’s dead? That will be troublesome.” Ah Lan frowned and shortly after said to Luo Jian, “Haven’t you gotten any other clues from him?”

Luo Jian froze momentarily, reached out, and took out two pieces of a jade pendant from his pocket. “I got this, and I also got half of it in Ghost’s tomb vault previously. But it’s strange because these two jade pendants should be a pair, but they do not match.”

Ah Lan narrowed his eyes a little. He felt the pressure of Abyss on his shoulder, which made him realize that Abyss had pressed his little claws on his shoulder. Then, Abyss approached Ah Lan’s ear and whispered, “The darker coloured one...... Bring it here.”

At that moment, Ah Lan felt his fingers were shaking.

Was this right? Or should he stop? Did I do something wrong? Should I stop, yes...... I should stop. No matter what, no matter who he is, I shouldn’t betray my current team, should I?

Abyss still did not speak, but the fingers on Feng Yu Lan’s shoulder seemed to exert a little strength. Ah Lan felt that the child seemed to have put his head on his shoulder and his whole body was lying on his back.

Ah Lan pointed to the darker jade pendant and asked Luo Jian, “This, is this one the one obtained from God?”

Luo Jian answered yes, and at the same time, he narrowed his eyes. He was keenly aware of Ah Lan’s state. Ah Lan seemed obviously absent-minded, but at the same time he was asking some very important questions, and...... when Luo Jian took out the two jade pendants, he did not specify which one belonged to ‘God’ and which belonged to ‘Ghost.’

But Feng YuLan had easily seen through all this.

Was there something wrong with it?

Luo Jian had not thought anything else, but Ah Lan, over at the other side, was staring at Luo Jian with dark eyes and at the same time whispered, “Can you show me?”

Luo Jian felt that his heart missed a beat.

Luo Jian finally decided to believe in Feng YuLan, just out of the most primitive trust in his heart.

The three people did not say a word and were silent for a long time. Luo Jian took the jade pendant in his hand and looked at it for a while. Finally, he could not help it. Then he said, “Ah Lan, I want to ask you a question.”

Luo Jian thought that certain things had changed without his knowledge, and such changes were bound to be astonishing, turbulent, and capable of completely rewriting everyone’s destiny.

“Ah Lan, are we comrades?” Luo Jian asked Feng YuLan that.

Feng Yu Lan froze momentarily. He suddenly thought that he had asked Abyss almost the same question just now. He could not help laughing and replied, “Of course we are comrades.”

Luo Jian believed him, and because he believed him, he naturally handed the jade pendant in his hand to Feng YuLan. Ah Lan held half of the jade pendant in his hand with a complicated expression. He was still hesitant and still doubted all his decisions, but he was more willing to trust his friend, just like how Luo Jian had believed him.

“You can choose not to believe me.” Abyss had already seen the dilemma Ah Lan was stuck in. He began to find a reason to reassure him. He said, “Push the responsibility back to me and tell them that I was controlling you, and honestly, this is true.”

But they were different, passively acting and actively acting. There was a clear dividing line.

Ah Lan once again looked at Abyss beside him. He felt that he had seen through the deepest part of the boy’s heart. Because Ah Lan himself possessed the power to communicate with souls, he had clearly understood the boy’s soul, and he clearly knew everything.

So what am I hesitating about?

Abyss seemed to have noticed Feng YuLan’s determination. He put his hands on Ah Lan’s shoulder and removed the ‘transparent person’ skills, exposing his body to the public’s eyes. Then Luo Jian and the stalker who were over there saw the child coming out of thin air beside Ah Lan.

In fact, it was not as if he had completely come out of thin air. In fact, the feeling was like déjà vu, but somehow in the depths of their heart, they felt there was no need to pay attention to the area where the child was. However, at this moment, with the draw to attention and consciousness, people unconsciously put all their attention on the child in front of them.

Then, the child reached out his hand to take the jade pendant in Feng YuLan’s hand.

Arrogantly and presumptuously, he directly reached out and took it. The speed was so fast that Ah Lan was a little surprised. But when he took it, he rubbed against Ah Lan. Afterwards, the stalker was the first to react and moved. He reached out to catch the clever kid. But the child also floated back flexibly, and as soon as he retreated, he opened a long distance between them.

When their things were robbed, everyone naturally wanted to get the jade pendant back. Xing Yan’s first strike did not make it. Luo Jian pulled out his weapon to keep up with him and lunged at Abyss.

Luo Jian’s blade was invisible, which was his disguiser weapon in its ‘sealed’ state. However, initially, it had acquired some unique features, such as invisibility. This blade was not really invisible. It was just a skill similar to what Abyss had used, which made all creatures who saw the knife ignore it subconsciously.

But this kind of weapon was doomed to have no effect on Abyss.

The weapon that everyone around them would ignore, except for the master of the weapon. He would never ignore it.

Therefore, when Luo Jian broke through and lunged over, Abyss easily stretched out his fingers and clamped the thin blade.

This kind of power was simply too weak.

“The current you...... I see, you were that weak?” Abyss held his red umbrella in one hand and subconsciously covered his face with the canopy of the umbrella. When he saw Luo Jian’s invisible blade, he felt a burst of sadness and disappointment.

Too weak! Such a weak me, how can I have the power to save others?
