While everyone was guessing who these two people were, Tian Fang and Luo Yang stood up and bowed respectfully. “Boss!”
Everyone was stunned. They thought that the person-in-charge of the 7th Bugle Call was the middle-aged captain but instead, it was an extremely young youth.
The young man with a domineering aura took a step forward first and walked over. The young man wearing the mask walked behind him. Everyone immediately understood who the ‘boss' was.
Ling Lan stopped around five metres in front of Lord Gen. She cupped her hands and said, “I've heard many things about you, Lord Gen.”
Lord Gen arrogantly scanned Ling Lan from head to toe indifferently before asking coldly, “Who are you?”
As one of the 13 Lords of the Lawless Lands, he didn't think much of these younger generations.
“I'm the head of this s.h.i.+p. I hope that Lord Gen can give me some face.” Ling Lan didn't mind Lord Gen's att.i.tude. She just put down her hand and spoke calmly.
“If White Monarch comes personally, I might give him some face. You however, you don't have the right.” Lord Gen flicked his coat and sat on the chair Ji Ming and Yu Shangfei brought over.
Ling Lan glanced at Li Lanfeng. Seeing the glance sent by Ling Lan, Li Lanfeng rushed out and picked up Luo Lang, who was vomiting blood on the ground. He prepared to bring him back for treatment.
Lord Gen glared at them when he saw them disregarding his presence. He scoffed. “Who allowed you to take him away?”
The s.p.a.ce around Li Lanfeng suddenly became distorted. However, in the next second, it went back to normal. He didn't seem to have heard what Lord Gen said as he continued pulling Luo Lang away. He calmly took one step at a time towards the exit.
“Impudent!” Lord Gen was infuriated when he saw his words being ignored. He waved his hand in Li Lanfeng's direction and a huge two-tailed scorpion appeared near Li Lanfeng. It struck its black and beautiful tails at Li Lanfeng and Luo Lang.
Seeing the scorpion, Ling Lan lifted her hand in the direction of the huge scorpion before tightly clenching her fist.
The giant scorpion seemed to be crushed by a huge force. It started rolling on the ground in pain.
This move allowed Li Lanfeng to leave successfully with Luo Lang. Soon, they disappeared from everyone's vision.
“Lord Gen, you should let the younger generations deal with their own fights. It isn't right for people like us to step in.” Ling Lan released her hand slowly and the giant scorpion fell down. Before it landed on the ground, it turned into black smoke and disappeared into thin air.
Ling Lan's sentence placed her on the same status as Lord Gen. The people around her gasped. Where did this arrogant young man come from? How dare he say that he was of the same status as Lord Gen? Even if the leader of the Rainbow Raiders, White Monarch, came, he would be polite to the 13 Lords. Even a mighty dragon won't attack a snake in its own territory.
Lord Gen squinted at Ling Lan's words. A dangerous expression appeared on his face, turning the atmosphere on the deck tense. Everyone felt a huge force of presence pressing down on them. Those that were less powerful couldn't withstand it and kneeled on the ground with a hideous expression on their faces. Some even vomited blood as they laid on the ground.
Lord Gen just released his domain concept and a portion of the spectators couldn't handle it already. Even the representatives of the other lords activated their domain to resist the force of presence.
“Lord Gen, there are normal people on my s.h.i.+p too.” Ling Lan released her force of presence to block Lord Gen's aura.
Those people that were hurt by Lord Gen's force of presence suddenly felt the pressure on them being lifted. They immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Many of them looked at Ling Lan gratefully, including those who brought their families to watch this confrontation.
“It looks like the Rainbow Raiders have decided to go to war with us?” Lord Gen narrowed his eyes. Ling Lan's actions were challenging his authority. He didn't like the Rainbow Raiders from the start but now, he had the intention of eradicating them.
The killing intent was well-hidden but the powerful representatives of the other lords detected it immediately. Bai Nuo's face turned pale as he looked in a certain direction.
The other representatives complained silently too. They asked their men to move back so that there was more s.p.a.ce for Lord Gen.
Once Lord Gen got angry, there would be blood. Every time he unleashed himself, not even bones would be left behind.
They needed to think how they should protect themselves from Lord Gen's rage. After all, those bugs would attack anyone in their way, and they didn't want to become food for the bugs.
“You're the one that decides if there'll be a war between us,” Ling Lan replied calmly as she placed her hands behind her back.
She had already expected this inevitable fight between Lord Gen and her. If she wanted to have a spot in the Lawless Lands, she must let everyone know about her strength, and the best way to do this was to earn her name through a fight.
At first, she thought that this fight would come later. After all, the people who came were all representatives of the lords. Ling Lan just wanted to heighten the conflict between one faction and her team by attempting to kill some of their more important men. That way, the other party would be enraged and their lord would come to find her for revenge.
Surprisingly, things went very smoothly. One of their important disciples came to fight with them, forcing Lord Gen to appear.
This was a chance given by heaven. Why would Ling Lan let go of this opportunity? She decisively revealed her arrogance which successfully offended Lord Gen. Logically, a fight would ensued.
“Haha… good, good. They who know nothing fear nothing. Let me teach you a lesson on behalf of White Monarch.” Lord Gen opened his arms as he laughed coldly. An endless amount of poisonous bugs began to fall down from his body. There was no end to it.
“It's here!” The other representatives felt their hearts dropping. They had seen how Lord Gen fought before, and it was frightening. Everywhere they looked, there were poisonous bugs. They were like locusts flying through a farm. Nothing could survive their ravage feasting.
Everyone frantically began to squeeze themselves in the corners. Those who were stronger all their domain to protect their subordinates. They could only hope that Lord Gen wouldn't lose his mind and implicate innocent bystanders like them.
Most of the people in charge started regretting coming to the deck. If they knew that Lord Gen would appear and be provoked, they would never have came.
“I'm not sure how to answer to Lord Zhen,” Bai Nuo mumbled.
“It can't be helped. The young man is powerful but too arrogant. He doesn't know his position. This is the Lawless Lands. This is a place where the 13 Lords can kill anyone they want. No one can save him. Even if he dies, he deserves it.” The a.s.sistant beside him gritted his teeth. This stupid brat was the one who placed their lives at risk. What an irritating fellow. Even if he didn't die, he would suggest to Lord Zhen that they mustn't work with the reckless Rainbow Raiders.
