C.832: Suddenly Collapsed Lan Mengqin

TL : BluVerse

Tang Yuge looked at Bai Xiuxiu and asked, “And you? Will you accompany him?” The “him” here naturally referred to Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu subconsciously looked at Bai Xiuxiu. In his opinion, the easily shy Bai Xiuxiu should deny it. But to his surprise, Bai Xiuxiu also looked at him, but her eyes were no longer as shy as before.

Under Lan Xuanyu’s intense gaze, Bai Xiuxiu did not deny it and simply nodded her head. “Yes, I have no family, only my teacher and you all. I have no aspirations or goals either.”

Although her words sounded calm, in that instant, Lan Xuanyu had a feeling of blood rushing to his head. That feeling almost made him pull Bai Xiuxiu into his arms. This was the first time she had said that she was willing to accompany him in the future. Although she didn’t express it clearly, the meaning behind her words was already very clear. What could be more satisfying than this?

Tang Yuge laughed, “You’re a good girl, a traditional good girl.”

Bai Xiuxiu smiled and said, “No, I’m not. Do you think he will just stay on the Mother Planet or somewhere else? Don’t you realize that the Academy and the Tang Sect treat him differently? What he will do in the future may far exceed our current expectations. Following him may lead to the most exciting life.”

Tang Yuge was stunned for a moment, but Liu Feng’s eyes lit up and he nodded in agreement, “Makes sense.”

At this moment, everyone’s eyes subconsciously turned to Lan Xuanyu. “It’s your turn, class leader,” Lan Mengqin said.

Feeling the gaze of everyone on him, Lan Xuanyu’s expression gradually became serious, and then he let out a soft sigh.

“Why are you sighing? Xiuxiu has already said she’s willing to follow you in the future. What else are you dissatisfied with?” Lan Mengqin said impatiently.

Lan Xuanyu replied, “The future? Our future plans are actually meaningless now, so I have no plans.”

Feeling the change in Lan Xuanyu’s tone, all six of them were somewhat surprised. Lan Xuanyu had always been sunny, wise, and positive. Today, why did he suddenly show a sense of depression?

Lan Xuanyu spoke in a deep voice, “The more I come into contact with this world, the more I realized that many things are not as beautiful as I imagine. And our Federation is not as peaceful as everyone perceived it to be. You should have noticed that the seven major fleets of the Federation are not even near our mother planet, and most of them are in unknown locations.”

Yuanen Huihui said, “Aren’t they engaged in interstellar immigration and development?”

Lan Xuanyu bitterly smiled and said, “Does interstellar immigration and development require such a strong military force? The peace we are enjoying now is precisely because of their protection, the protection of countless soldiers and predecessors, who have held back powerful foreign enemies. Once we enter the inner court and become stronger under its training, we will inevitably be sent to the front lines to face those enemies. This is the responsibility we must bear after receiving the academy’s intensive training and resource allocation.”

“Remember when we first entered the school, and the teacher repeatedly confirmed with us whether we were willing to stay and study? At that time, they were already telling us how significant the responsibility we would have to bear in the future. Especially as competitors of the Shrek Seven Monsters in our generation, if we were to become the Shrek Seven Monsters of this era, you can imagine how heavy the responsibility we would have to bear. So, my friends, let’s put aside our beautiful fantasies. If we want to fulfill our wish for peace, we must make a significant contribution to the peace of the federation.”

Lan Menquin murmured, “Can’t we just enjoy our beautiful fantasies? Is it necessary to put so much pressure on everyone?”

Lan Xuanyu spoke seriously, “Without pressure, people are light as feathers. Moreover, from the day we graduate from the outer court, this pressure will likely come down on us. Although our strength is not too strong, on average we have the level of seven rings Soul Saint. I don’t know what the practice in the inner court is like, but I saw senior Zheng Longjiang still completing missions as a Sky Fighter. The stronger our strength, the more secrets we will come into contact with, and the heavier our responsibilities will be. We have no possibility of retreat, only to face difficulties head-on.”

Tang Yuge laughed, “Xiuxiu is right. Perhaps only by following you, we will be able to live the most exciting life. Those are responsibilities but also experiences. Life is short, since we are alive, let’s make our lives more exciting. I look forward to such a life.”

Yuenen Huihui’s curiosity sparked, “Big Brother Xuanyu, do you know something? What kind of enemy will we face?”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, “I’m not sure about the specifics. But I can vaguely guess that there are opponents in the universe who are not inferior to us, and even stronger, who are eyeing us. The vast majority of the Federation’s combat power will face them, and what we need to do is also face such strong opponents.”

Lan Menquin pouted and said, “Do we have to go?”

Lan Xuanyu looked at her and said, “No one should force you. But we have gained too much from the academy. Without the academy, could we have so many resources? Could you have the opportunity to go to the Elven Planet and eventually be recognized by Senior Bi Ji? Moreover, to protect your people, the first thing to do is to protect the Federation. Can there be a home without a country? ”

Lan Menquin fell silent. Lan Xuanyu was right, without a country, how could there be a home?

Someone flexed his biceps and promised to protect Lan Menquin by saying, “I will always stay by your side and protect you. Anyone who wants to harm you will have to step over my dead body first.”

“You’re so annoying. Stay away from me. I don’t need your protection. I can protect myself.” Lan Menquin’s mood seemed a bit anxious.

Bai Xiuxiu patted Lan Xuanyu’s hand, signaling him to let go, and then walked over to Lan Menquin, took her hand, and whispered something to her.

However, Lan Xuanyu did not let Lan Menquin go. He followed and walked to her side, “Mengqin, I don’t know what you think about the future. But one thing I must remind you of is that if you really regret it and just want to live an ordinary life, then don’t take the inner court exam in this graduation exam. You should understand what I mean.”

Lan Menquin raised her head in surprise and looked at Lan Xuanyu, while Qian Lei was anxious, “Boss, Mengqin didn’t mean that, don’t force her.”

Lan Xuanyu shook his head, “No, I’m not forcing her, I’m just telling her. If you don’t want to pay, then don’t continue to gain. Mengqin, do you understand what I mean?”

Lan Menquin instead became calm, “I understand. You guys go to the auction, I’ll go back first, I want to be alone.” After speaking, she turned around and walked back.

Qian Lei looked at Lan Menquin, then at Lan Xuanyu, and hurriedly followed her.

Bai Xiuxiu looked at Lan Xuanyu somewhat helplessly, “Are you too straightforward?”

Tang Yuge approached Lan Xuanyu and said, “No, we should be straightforward. Being straightforward is good for Mengqin. In fact, everyone can see that she has the least fighting spirit among all of us. In terms of talent and conditions, she even surpasses me with her Twin Martial Souls, which are two top-tier martial souls. But she doesn’t have much desire or motivation to move forward. She even feels like it’s just for fun. It’s us who are constantly advancing at a rapid pace, driving her to feel like she has to move forward. With the graduation exam coming up, we are even candidates for the Seven Monsters. Today, when she asked that question, it was the right time to clarify things with her. She must make a choice now. If she chooses to quit, now is the time. In the future, we will work together and repay everything we owed to the Academy on her behalf. As for the Inner Court, it involves the core secrets of the Academy. If she is not willing to contribute to the Federation and the Academy for the future, she is really not suitable to continue.”
