262: Overly complex

"What do you mean?"

Although Wang Wenshan was prepared,

hearing Jiang Lan say this now still made him worried.

"I can't guarantee anything else, but given the current situation, neither of you will escape."

After hearing this, both of them gasped.

"If that's the case, how can that be?"

Although they had made thorough preparations,

this was also unexpected.

Especially Xu Lindong next to him.

It was indeed not easy to enter this Ancient Secret Realm, but he thought that once they were in, everything would be resolved. However, this now exceeded his expectations.

"What do you think this is, some good place? Come and go as you please?"

Jiang Lan looked at the two of them as if they were a joke. If it weren't for the fact that they still had some use,

he wouldn't bother talking nonsense with them.

Especially Wang Wenshan, his intentions were obvious, and he still thought he was hiding them well. But now, he also felt it was meaningless.

"Then this won't work, and that won't work. Please, quickly help us think, what should we do next?"

"We want to follow you, but we don't want to hold you back."

Actually, Wang Wenshan's meaning was that they needed to find a way to protect themselves.

Otherwise, when that time truly came, Jiang Lan might not be able to look after him.

Although Xu Lindong next to him didn't speak,

his eager gaze was very obvious.

Jiang Lan looked at their actions and almost laughed out loud. Although they looked a bit pitiful like this,

he didn't think they deserved sympathy.

"But you didn't tell me the truth when you came in."

"What exactly happened? I think you should be clearer than I am. Why are you now asking me to come up with solutions for you? What solutions can I come up with?"

Jiang Lan's calm tone made them feel desperate.

"We know we were wrong."

"Yes, we didn't think that way at the time. We originally thought this matter would just be more exaggerated than before."

They hadn't thought it would bring danger.

"Then why did you leave them a way out?" "When those people come later, what help can they provide you?"

Jiang Lan came this time to use Xu Lindong's Magical Artifact to find the bodhi leaf, and thus Cultivate the Magical Artifact.

Then increase his lifespan.

After all, the current situation was different from before.

But if he really encountered a tricky opponent, then he would inevitably have to use his Magical Artifacts in battle.

Yet these two people didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all, still thinking about this and that here.

They even said such unreliable things. If he didn't teach them a lesson, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"We really didn't mean to."

"We didn't think so much at the time, and we also thought this matter wasn't that complicated."

"But it's only now, at this point, that we regret it, so we hope you can give us a chance."

Xu Lindong almost knelt down to beg for mercy.

Now he finally understood Jiang Lan's power. Before, when they were outside, he only thought Wang Wenshan was talking nonsense.

And Wang Wenshan didn't bring any subordinates with him this time.

Although they could indeed help, looking at the current situation, how much help could they be?

If Jiang Lan didn't allow it, it would be a dead end.

Meanwhile, outside, those people entered just before the Secret Realm closed.

"I hope we don't run into that plague god Jiang Lan, otherwise, I don't know what will happen."

"Can you stop saying things like that?"

"Whether he's a plague god or not, whether we run into him or not, let's just take care of our own business."

"If you insist on saying those things, then I can't do anything."

He looked at this seriously.

And those who heard these words sighed.

"I've always thought Jiang Lan was very powerful, but now he's unapproachable. Otherwise, if we could team up with him, I think things here would go very smoothly."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was met with a glare from the person next to him.

"You think it would go smoothly, but would Jiang Lan make it so smooth for you?"

"Or do you think he's easy to talk to, and other people would give you the same opportunity?"

Just like that, this Disciple stopped talking.

Jiang Lan led Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong through the front area.

But this Ancient Secret Realm was still quite formidable.

As soon as they entered, several people felt the Spiritual Qi being drained from their bodies.

"If your abilities are insufficient, try to stay close to me. Otherwise, don't say I didn't protect you if something happens."

Jiang Lan said coldly.

But the two of them were exceptionally moved to hear this.

Because Jiang Lan was speaking the truth.

If they were too far apart, and something really happened, who could protect whom?

Jiang Lan looked at the two of them, and his gaze told him they were overthinking.

"Don't have too much psychological burden."

"The reason I protect you is because you might still be useful later on. If you think this way now, other situations might arise."

The two of them stared at Jiang Lan dumbfounded. They didn't know what they were thinking, that he could even see through them.

Jiang Lan couldn't help but laugh at this.

"When you two do things, it's so obvious on your faces. Do you really think you can hide it from anyone like this?"

At this, the two of them were completely at a loss for words.

They had thought their acting skills were quite good.

At this moment, Wang Wenshan was filled with dread. Did that mean his intention to act against Jiang Lan

had also been discovered by him?

If he discovered it and was still willing to bring him along, then this person truly had a broad mind.

And he was different from what he had imagined.

Jiang Lan naturally didn't know what Wang Wenshan was thinking, he just told the two of them not to dawdle.

Time here waited for no one, and if they wasted any more, irreversible consequences might occur.

Although the two were a bit conflicted, they still nodded honestly and followed closely behind Jiang Lan.

They passed through that forest.

But when they entered, they found it eerily quiet, with no animals.

Not even other Qi existed.

"What's going on here? Is this the territory of some Yao Beast?"

"But it's too quiet, isn't it? Whether it is or not, we should still be careful."

Wang Wenshan assumed a defensive stance.

Jiang Lan waved his hand, directly using a Magical Artifact.

After he checked the situation here, his brows furrowed slightly. He hadn't expected it to be like this here.

He had thought of many possibilities.

But he had never expected that this place was not under his control, and even other anomalies had appeared.

"What's wrong?"

For the first time, the two of them saw such a serious expression on Jiang Lan's face, and they couldn't help but gasp.

"The situation here might be more complicated than you imagine. If you don't want to die, then leave, quickly."

Jiang Lan quickened his pace, preparing to get out of the forest.

But as soon as they walked in, they suddenly heard a roar, and a giant wolf Yao Beast appeared.

"What the heck is that?"

Wang Wenshan was startled by the wolf Yao Beast's movement.
