It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future - Chapter 1341
Chapter 1341: Imperial Battle!
Luo Lang curled his fingers to knock the metal chains into each other. Suddenly, a flash of red gleam past his eyes.
Hearing the piercing sound, Li Lanfeng turned back to glance at Luo Lang, and saw Luo Lang raising his right hand before pointing at three people with three of his metal chains.
Luo Lang was telling him that he would take care of those three people.
Li Lanfeng frowned slightly. However, he still nodded and agreed.
Ji Ming, Yu Shangfei, and the other guardians were infuriated when he saw Luo Lang and Li Lanfeng distributing them so casually. The three people who got chosen by Luo Lang, including Ji Ming, rushed towards Luo Lang in unplanned unison. On the other side, Yu Shangfei and another guardian attacked Li Lanfeng.
Two fights were on the verge of erupting. But, no matter how violent or frightening their fights were, they didn’t affect Ling Lan and Lord Gen who were standing at the front.
There was an invisible barrier behind Ling Lan which blocked all the domain concept energy.
Ling Lan slowly raised her head and said in an even tone, “It’s our turn.”
Lord Gen slowly stood up from his throne and replied coldly, “Talk while you can. You might not have a chance later.”
Ling Lan smiled gently. “Sure. I’ll also give you some time to say what you want later when I smack you down.”
Lord Gen’s expression turned grim. “You’re looking for death!”
After this shout, everything around Lord Gen, including the rainbow palace, turned into the five poisonous insects. They crawled towards Ling Lan from all directions.
“Ice Blockade!” Extreme coldness dawned upon them. In a blink of an eye, the rainbow palace and all the poisonous insects turned into ice statues. The dull and sinister-looking rainbow palace became a crystal-clear ice palace.
Lord Gen was flabbergasted. “Ice element? Isn’t your element space?”
Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and answered, “Who told you that?”
“…” Lord Gen’s eyes narrowed. He still remembered clearly what had happened on the 7th Bugle Call. He really did feel the suction force from the black hole. It wasn’t a mistake.
Ling Lan stretched out her right hand and clenched her fist. A crystal-clear ice sword slowly congregated in her hand. “My best element has always been the ice element.”
Lord Gen suddenly laughed when he heard this. “I don’t understand why you would expose that. If you tried to cover it up, I might still be wary of your space domain concept. But, the ice element… do you really think it can suppress my domain concept?”
Lord Gen clasped his hands together and shouted, “Break!”
The ice statues began exploding simultaneously. The insects that were trapped inside revealed their poisonous fangs as they attempted to bite Ling Lan.
Ling Lan frowned at the sight. She quickly disappeared from her spot suddenly in a second, and appeared behind Lord Gen in the next. She stabbed the ice sword in her hand at Lord Gen without any hesitation.
The ice sword pierced through Lord Gen’s body.
Boom! Lord Gen’s body exploded unexpectedly.
Before the explosion could reach her, Ling Lan leaped back more than ten metres away from Lord Gen.
However, the poisonous insects that created the illusion of Lord Gen’s body still managed to come close to her body.
Just as the insects were about to come close to her body, Ling Lan pushed her left hand out and a huge ice wall appeared, blocking the poisonous insects.
However, she wasn’t safe yet as Ling Lan’s gaze turned somber. It was because she could see those poisonous insects poking into the ice wall and then slowly crawling through it before reaching her side.
They were not afraid of the cold. As expected, her opponent was an imperial realm formidable warrior.
Ling Lan had already guessed that the 13 Lords of the Lawless Lands were all imperial realm formidable warriors. Imagine this, the locals in the Lawless Lands were all very talented in terms of their physical skills and their mecha piloting. If it wasn’t because of the restriction in their age, which prevented the Lawless Lands from grooming more formidable warriors and mecha operators, this world might be entirely different.
It would be a joke if the 13 Lords, who were the most powerful people in the Lawless Lands, hadn’t reached the imperial stage. From the information Ling Lan had gathered in the past and during this period of time, she felt that someone among the 13 Lords might have entered god-realm, or was half a step into god-realm.
Now, there was evidence to back up her hypothesis. She had released her titled domain concept but the ice wall she congregated had a tinge of imperial stage domain concept in it. It wasn’t purely formed with her titled domain concept. Only imperial realm formidable warriors were able to break through her ice wall.
Because of this finding, Ling Lan decided to end this fight as soon as possible. She must take care of one lord before all of them reach a consensus to suppress her. After taking him down, she would take over his territory so that the other lords would have to accept her as the successor in order to maintain the balance in the Lawless Lands.
This was Ling Lan’s first step in her overall plan. She must quickly find a position in the Lawless Lands before she could make any other moves. Once the 13 Lords decided to work together to chase her away, she wouldn’t be able to withstand the pressure of all the 13 Lords no matter how powerful she was. If that happened, she would either have to leave dejectedly or die under their pressure. Anyway, she couldn’t accept either of these results.
That was why she decided to take the risk to come to Lord Gen’s territory to find him.
Although an imperial stage battle wasn’t as earth-shattering as a god-realm battle, it would still affect the fluctuations of the domain concept energies in the surroundings. Anyone who reached the domain realm would be able to detect this fluctuation within a certain distance. The people who reached the imperial stage would be able to detect it almost instantly. They would only need a little more effort to find out where this fluctuation came from.
Ling Lan calculated the distance of all the 13 Lords’ territory. Based on this, the person who would arrive the fastest was Lord Zhen. He would need at least 20 minutes. Hence, there wasn’t much time left for her. She must kill Lord Gen within 20 minutes. Once Lord Zhen arrived, she would be surrounded. She might not even be able to escape unscathed with Li Lanfeng and Luo Lang by her side.
“There’s no path of retreat. I can only fight with my life.” A determined expression appeared on her face. “Unseal!”
A snowflake symbol appeared on top of Ling Lan’s forehead and her short black hair grew exponentially longer. The colour of her hair slowly turned into silver as it danced in the air.
Lord Gen exclaimed in surprise, “That is impossible!”
But, he managed to calm down in the next second. He quickly unsealed his imperial stage domain concept and clapped his hands together. A colorful tattoo poisonous scorpion appeared on the back of his palm. In the next second, a huge scorpion appeared behind him. This scorpion was slightly different as it had seven tails instead of one.
