Chapter 1889
"You, come with me right now!"
Su Yao simply looked up at Long Xiao in a daze, a hint of disgust flashing deep in her eyes. Then, her eyes seemed completely dead as she followed Long Xiao forward without any expression.
With the departure of the two, only four deacons and ten members who had passed the test remained on the field.
Of the remaining people, none of the four deacons were worthy of their attention.
Although Manqiong and Xue Tu are both intelligent and talented, having reached the level of Divine Envoy at such a young age, they are considered to have a bright future.
However, the paths they practiced were completely different from his own, making it impossible for them to learn from each other.
They can't even provide guidance.
So the group could only shake their heads and sigh, it seemed that once again they would be unable to choose a suitable apprentice from among them.
As for those wealthy young men, they never considered them from the beginning—these young men were good for nothing except for their powerful family backgrounds.
They don't need such a burden by their side; on the contrary, it would only hinder their cultivation.
After the four of them turned and left in disappointment, Xue Tu and Man Qiong secretly glanced at Li Lan and were so frightened that they turned into two streaks of light and rushed towards the cave, fearing that if they stayed there for even a second longer, they would be crushed to death by Li Lan.
At this moment, with everyone else leaving, only Li Lan, Da Niu, Wang Tianye, and six wealthy young men remained.
Li Lan stared at Luo Ye, who had a smiling face and seemed completely indifferent, her eyes filled with coldness.
As if stared at by that cold light, Luo Ye's smiling face instantly turned pale. He looked at Li Lan and said angrily:
"Li Lan, what's the meaning of staring at me like that?"
Seeing that Li Lan remained silent, but her gaze grew increasingly fierce, Luo Ye trembled in fear and took a step back.
Seeing Li Lan's imposing manner, the other five wealthy young men dared not make a move.
In normal circumstances, if they faced civilians who dared to look them in the eye, they wouldn't need Luo Ye to say a word; they would simply gouge out the other person's eyes, rub salt into them, and let them die in despair and agony. Only then could they quell their hatred and extinguish the fire of anger in their hearts.
However, when they met Li Lan's chilling gaze, they all felt as if they were being stared at by a terrifying god, and dared not show the slightest disrespect, let alone stand up for Luo Ye.
Luo Ye was also flustered at this moment, staring blankly at Li Lan, and tried to remain calm as he said:
"Brother Li Lan, you've misunderstood. This matter really has nothing to do with me."
"I have been protecting the little bull brother from the very beginning, and I never gave up on him until the very end."
"However, we encountered a great crisis during our journey. The black fog suddenly appeared and was invincible. We were no match for it. Moreover, Brother Xiao Niu is a generous man. Under such circumstances, he did not abandon me."
"They even went forward to fight, but unfortunately, the Little Bull brothers were ultimately no match for them and were swallowed up by that black mist..."
Luo Ye spoke with great emotion, his eyes filled with tears, which surprised Wang Tianye so much that he almost believed him.
Da Niu stood there stunned, not knowing how to refute.
He couldn't find the slightest problem in Luo Ye's words.
Moreover, upon hearing about the black fog, Da Niu already began to believe what Luo Ye said.
He knew perfectly well how powerful that black mist was—it seemed like an ant that could be easily killed in front of Li Lan.
They were even so frightened that they fled in panic.
But to ordinary people like them, the black fog was like a demon, comparable to a god, and impossible to resist.
At least Da Niu knew that if he were to confront that black fog, he would probably be nothing but a skeleton in less than a breath.
