Cultivator in the Last Days-Chapter 172: Bicker (2)

Yu Shi Lan’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Mu Ting Ye.

"What do you mean by Lian Lei Xu is caught by the military?" Yu Shi Lan quickly asked for confirmation.

It was outrageous.

Would the Lian Family allowed the military that was close to the Mu Family took their young aster?

She felt that there should be another story behind this.

Xiao Mao was also curious, though she didn’t quite understand the implication.

"It’s literally," Mu Ting Ye replied with a grin and then started to recount what had happened after Lian Lei Xu left Yu Shi Lan’s apartments areas. He didn’t know the exact details, but he was present when Lian Lei Xu took out a knife and started to attack other people crazily.

The way he did it was so crazy that many people will definitely talk about it.

That was if the Lian Family didn’t try to suppress this matter.

But with the current situation, Mu Ting Ye highly doubted that the Lian Family would be able to take control of the public opinion.

In fact, it would be good enough for the Lian Family not to be drowned by the large number of people who wanted to push them down. After all, Mu Ting Ye had heard those recordings and knew how hurtful Lian Lei Xu’s words were.

Mu Ting Ye didn’t know that Yu Shi Lan had let the guards played the recording in a loop after ’bribing’ him.

In this way, the entire world will know about the good things that Lian Lei Xu said.

As for the Lian Family’s retaliation...

Yu Shi Lan will say that she was not afraid.

If it was not for that b*stard kept looking for trouble in front of her, she would not have been so ruthless.

The recording would be nothing more than a small fun between her and Mu Ting Ye who were laughing at Lian Lei Xu’s stupidity.

"He’s crazy," Yu Shi Lan concluded without hesitation but there was no surprise in her tone.

Xiao Mao also nodded inside Yu Shi Lan’s pocket. After infusing so much demonic Qi into Lian Lei Xu, it would be stranger if Lian Lei Xu could remain normal instead.

"Yes." Mu Ting Ye could see that Yu Shi Lan didn’t seem to be surprised and looked at the young woman before asking, "Have you known that this is what will happen to him?"

Lin Yuan, who was eating while listening to Mu Ting Ye recounting the scene, slowed down his eating all of the sudden. He didn’t understand why Mu Ting Ye would ask this question so straightforwardly to Yu Shi Lan.

What if she didn’t want to tell?

For a moment, he was a bit worried for his junior (senior) brother.

"Hmm... with how the mutated animals behave, isn’t it obvious?" Yu Shi Lan answered unclearly.

She couldn’t possibly explain how she knew Lian Lei Xu will definitely become crazy because of eating the demonic beasts’ meat. Even if she waned to explain, she didn’t want to reveal the secret of her rebirth.

This is something that she will bring straight to her grave.

Not wanting to roast her own brain, Yu Shi Lan decided not to answer Mu Ting Ye’s question straightforwardly.

"Is it so obvious?" Lin Yuan asked back and looked at the restaurant on the opposite side. In the end, he gave up thinking about it and just focus on the food in front of him.

The taste is really good.

Mu Ting Ye saw that Yu Shi Lan didn’t want to answer, so he shrugged. "If you can’t tell, you can choose not to say anything. We won’t ask again. Let’s talk about what do you think will happen to Lian Lei Xu after he was brought back by the military?"

"The Lian Family might be punished?" Yu Shi Lan asked with uncertainty.

"No way." Lin Yuan was the first to refute this. "The Lian Family’s standing would make it impossible for others to touch them easily. Even if Lian Lei Xu were to make a mistake, they wouldn’t touch the Lian Family behind him."

Mu Ting Ye also nodded at Lin Yuan’s words. "They will probably pacify the Lian Family if they want to keep detaining Lian Lei Xu."

’It’s really complicated." Yu Shi Lan frowned.

Mu Ting Ye and Lin Yuan laughed when they saw Yu Shi Lan’s tangled look and only stopped when she glared at them.

"This is just how it is in our circle." Mu Ting Ye grinned. "When you grow up and have to face them, you will definitely miss your childhood where you have nothing to worry about."

"At that time, even if you were to make trouble, your parents will just scold you and then clean up your messes," Lin Yuan added.

Mu Ting Ye rolled his eyes at his best friend’s words. "I think it’s just you who kept on making trouble."

"What are you talking about? We always do it together!"

"I’m not that much of a troublemaker like you!"

Yu Shi Lan watched Mu Ting Ye and Lin Yuan bickered with each other and couldn’t help but laugh.

When Mu Ting Ye and Lin Yuan started talking about their childhood, she did miss her childhood for a bit. At that time, her father was still alive and even though he rarely went home because of his duty, Yu Shi Lan still lived a carefree life.

Unfortunately, the happy time didn’t last long.

She could still remember the day a soldier came to their door and announced the death of her father.

Yu Shi Lan felt as if the sky has fallen. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Everything changed from that day on.

Since she’s still a minor and didn’t understand many things about the world, she was handed over to Wang Kai Tan and Su Wan Rou. And through her, those two people were able to take the pension that should have been used to compensate her because of her father’s sacrifice.

Ah...

It was really.

Yu Shi Lan closed her eyes and when she opened it again, she heard Mu Ting Ye and Lin Yuan bickered with each other.

Seeing their smiles, she couldn’t help but laugh along with them.
