305: The real problem

“Alright, take him away. Don't be an eyesore here. After all, we just managed to deal with all of this.”

He waved his hand, telling someone to take the man away.

“Oh right, I remember before I left, you seemed to be called that name, right?”

Speaking of the Demon Suppression Division leader's name, Jiang Lan thought of an unpleasant past event.

At that time, he felt that these things didn't matter.

He even thought that even if it was like before, he wouldn't care much.

But now, this situation made him speechless.

“Yes, I used to be called Xu Yanjiao. You can still call me that now, after all, your position and ability have always been above mine, and I have no right to say otherwise.”

“However, we are facing a big problem here now. Please take a look.”

Aside from dealing with Huang Qilian, this was the biggest trouble they had encountered so far.

When Jiang Lan saw the item in his hand, his expression was somewhat complex.

He hadn't expected that after so many years, it would reappear, and this Yao Beast's ability seemed much more exaggerated than he had imagined. Back then, he didn't take these matters seriously.

He even felt that it was purely a waste of opportunity.

But seeing it again now, he actually had a very familiar feeling.

“What is this? Why does it feel like each of you views this matter differently?”

Jiang Lan smiled faintly.

“Aren't you curious how my strength reached its Peak? I used this to make my ability reach its Peak.”

“But during that time, there were screams everywhere, as it took me a great deal of effort to kill the Yao Beast.”

Jiang Lan's words left Wang Wenshan dumbfounded.

Although Xu Lindong, who was beside him, didn't react as strongly, he also found it incredibly outrageous.

“If it's really as you say, then what is there that you can't do? This situation seems even more outrageous than before.”

“Indeed, there's nothing I can't do. After all, in this form, if something had really happened before, it would certainly be better than now.”

“But I remember when I left before, this guy was already dealt with by me. Why is he still jumping around now?”

“He cannot be dealt with, because his Divine Soul is immortal. He will always cause trouble, and it might even be more complicated than we imagine.”

“We haven't slept for several nights because of this. He can create ordinary Yao Beasts to attack everyone.”

“There might even be more exaggerated consequences, which is why we are in such a hurry now. Otherwise, it wouldn't be necessary.”

After hearing this, Jiang Lan waved his hand.

“Alright, I generally understand. There's no need to be so nervous. Since you trust me, I'll give it a try.”

“However, whether I can succeed in the end is uncertain. My strength has indeed improved a lot compared to before, but I feel it might still not be simple.”

When he said this, Xu Yanjiao indeed waved his hand.

“As long as you take action, it's fine. I believe that with your ability, you can definitely solve that big guy. How about this, since you've finally returned, I'll send you down to rest first, and arrange for your two friends as well.”

Xu Yanjiao turned and personally went to make arrangements.

After he left, Wang Wenshan explained the reason.

“What he said isn't wrong, but why do I feel like he's putting all the problems on you, as if you absolutely have to solve them?”

Jiang Lan raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at Wang Wenshan.

“You're quite clever, you understand the problem here. But you're not wrong, he indeed put all his chips on me.”

“However, I also just happen to want to challenge this so-called situation and see how it differs from the previous ones.”

And the person who had just felt it was unreasonable, after hearing these words, had an even more complex expression.

“But why agree? Although he punished that guy earlier, I don't think he will truly awaken from it.”

“Moreover, that Huang Qilian seems to have no influence anymore, but in reality, he isn't dead.”

“When did you become so cruel?”

Wang Wenshan was somewhat dumbfounded when he heard Xu Lindong say this. Even though he was prepared,

he still felt that these things were fine, but now hearing him say it like this, he still felt it was cruel.

“Is this cruel?”

“Then I want to ask you, if our strength wasn't superior, would Huang Qilian have spared us?”

“You've already been to the dangerous Ancient Secret Realm, yet you're still so naive. Sometimes I don't know what to say about you.”

As soon as these words came out, the person who had originally looked calm, became even more embarrassed.

“I was just saying that. If you really speak it out, then I can't do anything.”

“Besides, I'm just speaking from Jiang Lan's perspective, not really meaning it. What am I supposed to do? If you insist on saying that about me, then I can't do anything.”

Seeing that the two were about to argue, Jiang Lan quickly waved his hand.

“Alright, both of you stop arguing. There's nothing to say. This matter is my willingness. As for the rest, there's nothing to fuss about. Besides, isn't it obvious?”

What he was thinking at the time was that if this situation was more exaggerated than the previous ones, then someone would definitely come for the rest.

As for Huang Qilian, he never took him seriously, just a mere ant.

If he were to provoke others because of this, or if it had an impact because of this, then the remaining things might not go smoothly.

But now, the goal has been achieved.

“Forget it, whatever you say. What you say goes. What else can we explain?”

The two of them were originally just following behind Jiang Lan, picking up scraps.

Now that this situation and probability existed, they naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity.

On the other side, Xu Yanjiao, who had already left, directly sent people to clarify the matter.

“I just don't understand, why do you have to do this? You can't even solve such a small problem, and now you have to say this. It's one thing for Huang Qilian to cause such a commotion outside, but he even brought it in front of Jiang Lan. Is he really tired of living?”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the several people here became very ugly.

“How would we know? If we fully understood these details, then fine, but the key is that it's not that easy at all, and didn't they already know?”

At that time, they originally thought that if it was possible to discuss it with Huang Qilian in advance, then the remaining situations wouldn't be too exaggerated.

As a result, later on, the various circumstances made them feel somewhat ashamed.

“I don't care how you discuss or plan, there's no choice left now. Of course, if you think I'm joking with you, you can try it, but the situation will be like this in the end.”
