288: go out
“Alright, then there’s no need to waste time. Let’s get started.”
Jiang Lan didn’t want to be like before.
Wasting so much time in here, only to accomplish nothing in the end.
As they emerged from the Illusion, the Bodhi Tree finally transformed into the appearance of a normal young man, astonishing everyone around them.
“Although I was prepared and thought this wouldn’t be an issue.”
“But this is just too outrageous.”
Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong stared at the Bodhi Tree’s appearance, unable to react for a long time.
“What’s wrong? I think this human form I’ve taken is quite handsome, so what’s wrong with it in your eyes?”
The two shook their heads, saying there was nothing wrong, just that it was strange.
Just moments ago, it was merely an ordinary tree branch in front of them.
Then, suddenly, it turned into a young man, and what’s more, he was even more handsome than both of them.
This was something the two of them found hard to accept.
“I know you might have some opinions about me, but I want to say that this matter isn’t as exaggerated as you think, and my abilities are quite good.”
Jiang Lan had no time to listen to them boast.
He directly led them out of the Illusion, only to find many people gathered around them outside.
“What do you mean? You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? According to what they said before, isn’t this even more obvious?”
“You are Jiang Lan, aren’t you? Although we were prepared and feel that this situation is indeed more difficult than before.”
“But since you’ve come out from inside, you must have obtained many heavenly spiritual treasures.”
“If you hand them over now, we will spare your lives.”
Hearing this, Jiang Lan sneered.
“Are you herding horses?”
“What we do? It seems it’s not your place to point fingers here, and besides, being overly confident doesn’t seem to be a good thing.”
Jiang Lan’s words gave them a bad premonition.
“What, are you saying you can do something to us?”
“I don’t think such a thing is possible at all.”
They were very confident; compared to the previous situation, this was now very clear.
“More or less. Although I didn’t explicitly say what I would do to you, since you’ve already asked.”
“If I don’t give an answer, then honestly, it really wouldn’t make sense.”
Jiang Lan waved his hand, releasing a powerful ability.
He didn’t want the Bodhi Tree to be coveted by others.
After all, his abilities had not yet reached their peak, and to reach that level, he would need much more practice later on, which was certainly not simple.
“Why are you humans all so cunning?”
“You look like you’re doing something, but in reality, your minds are not focused on it.”
The Bodhi Tree whispered to Jiang Lan.
Hearing this, Jiang Lan also sighed.
“It’s precisely because of this that I find humans cunning and don’t want to deal with them. If it were truly possible, or under certain circumstances, it could be changed.”
At his words, the Bodhi Tree fell silent again.
Meanwhile, Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong also adopted fighting stances, even though they thought the same as before.
“If you want to deal with Jiang Lan, you’ll have to get past us first.”
“Although we don’t know what schemes you’re plotting, we want to say that you shouldn’t be deluding yourselves.”
“How could this matter turn out exactly as you imagine?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the guys who were just struggling instantly relaxed, as this situation was indeed incomprehensible.
“I always feel like something is wrong, but I can’t quite put my finger on it. However, since things have come to this, then indeed.”
These people from the various Schools here didn’t care about so many things; they only remembered what they needed to do.
They only knew that the choice was no longer theirs, and everything had already exceeded expectations, far from being as simple as they thought.
“I think what you’re saying is really strange. Isn’t it easy to defeat you? Do you really think everyone is flawless like you?”
As they spoke, they actually stepped forward and attacked, their expressions and movements incredibly decisive.
Wang Wenshan and Xu Lindong hadn’t been idle inside either.
After a few quick moves, the two also grasped a few tricks.
They were fighting fiercely with this guy.
Jiang Lan watched for a moment, then couldn’t help but smile.
“I didn’t expect you two to improve so much in such a short time.”
“But it’s still the same old saying: you shouldn’t take them too seriously.”
“Otherwise, they’ll really think they’re amazing.”
Hearing Jiang Lan’s words, the expressions of these people were very ugly.
“Who are you talking to? You don’t really think that just because you have some skill, everyone should praise you, do you?”
They fought with all their might, but even so, they were no match for Wang Wenshan.
Even if he only used a little Magical Artifact and ordinary abilities.
He could still knock them back a great distance.
And Xu Lindong also felt that the people of the entire School now had no room for improvement.
Although Yao Beasts were rampant outside.
But they only thought about internal strife, not about improving themselves. How could such people be as they imagined?
“Alright, let’s go. There’s no need to waste time here. After all, they also said before that they wanted to obtain the treasures on us, and they did put in some effort, but this matter is not that easy.”
As he said this, Wang Wenshan also nodded. They had already walked a distance, but were still blocked by people.
“What exactly do you want to do?”
“I always thought this kind of situation was rare, but what I didn’t expect was that you would be so excessive. It’s one thing to not take others seriously, but now you’re so arrogant.”
Watching them block their path, Jiang Lan and the others just wanted to laugh.
“How is this arrogant?”
“Didn’t you want to fight just now? But you couldn’t win.”
Just as they were about to say more, the Bodhi Tree couldn’t hold back.
“I think there’s no need to say any more; it’s meaningless. Why don’t I give it a try?”
The Bodhi Tree stepped forward and directly manipulated its branches. These people didn’t even notice before they were directly swept into a vortex.
By the time they realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
“What did you do to me? I always thought you were quite normal, but I didn’t expect you to be so despicable and shameless.”
They shouted at Jiang Lan’s retreating back, but Jiang Lan merely smiled faintly.
Before, he thought bringing this thing out wouldn’t be beneficial, but now it seemed quite good, at least it could make things here different.
“How was it? I made these humans afraid, aren’t you impressed with me?”
“More or less, I am indeed quite impressed with you. After all, I haven’t seen such a situation in other places.”
Jiang Lan gave a serious thumbs-up.
