Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God Chapter 214

Many seemingly complicated schemes weren't actually all that complicated once the schemer's goal became known.

And everyone had their own goals in that scheme. For example, Cang Lian's goal was very simple—to be promoted to a higher ranking position.

Since Gu Nan's existence was already inevitable, it would be best if she was the highest-ranking subordinate under Gu Nan, becoming his direct representative.

In Cang Lian's eyes, that Lord had obviously abandoned Red Tail or appointed her to be in charge of other affairs, while things on the mainland were left to Lan Si.

“Lan Si, who can't compare to me at all in beauty, ability, or strength.”

"All she has is that one's trust." A slight sneer appeared on Cang Lian's face.

As long as she wore away at that one's trust in Lan Si, she believed that with her own ability, she could completely replace Lan Si's position— 'There's nothing Lan Si can do that I can't do.'

"Miss Lan, Miss Lan! There's trouble…" A servant came in quickly from the door and said anxiously to Lan Si.

"What's the matter this time?!” Lan Si turned her head impatiently. She had to deal with all kinds of matters all day long, so her entire person was in an irritable state.

"It's the Tang family…" The servant finally got the chance to breathe. "There was a fight between the Tang family and the Mystical Heaven Dao Hall. It's said that some people died. Even Elder Pan is there now!"

"What did you say?" Lan Si immediately stood up.

If she had to name people on this continent she still cared about—apart from Gu Nan—then they must be the Tang family and Tang Xuan.

Setting aside her many interactions with Tang Xuan, the Tang family helped her back when she was running Blue Lake, so she remembered this favor.

"What exactly is going on?" After gaining some experience these days, Lan Si could be considered a fledgling leader now, and she wasn't as impulsive as before.

The servant hurriedly explained.

The whole story was also very simple. It was nothing more than people from the Mystical Heaven Dao Hall coming over to annex several of the Tang family's resource locations on behalf of their Dao Hall. As a result, the two sides clashed.

Similar things had occurred countless times in the past few days. Usually, whichever family that refused to accept this would be directly suppressed… But this was the Tang family!

"Didn't I say that no one is allowed to touch the Tang family? How could this still happen?" Lan Si had a dark expression as she asked coldly.

Cold sweat broke out on the servant's face, and Lan Si waved impatiently. "Forget it. Prepare the starship to the Tang family."

The scene had already been cleaned up when Lan Si hurriedly reached the Tang family, but her mood wasn't so good because the dead bodies hadn't been taken away yet.

One of the corpses was Elder Pan's third disciple—Lan Si knew the matter would be difficult to resolve as soon as she heard this.

In the end, Lan Si wasn't an apathetic character like Gu Nan, who wouldn't even care about his own relatives. During this time, Elder Pan helped her greatly and also pointed out many of her mistakes.

So she held some respect and even fear for this elder who was her subordinate.

"Miss Lan." Seeing Lan Si's arrival, Elder Pan took the initiative to stand up and salute. He didn't have much expression on his face, but the sadness in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

Lan Si had never encountered such a situation before and could only say with a parched throat, "Elder Pan, I'm sorry for your loss…"

Cang Lian silently rolled her eyes from behind Elder Pan, thinking in her heart that this one was a little too inexperienced. 'What kind of leader lowers her attitude at the very beginning?'

'With an attitude like that, how will she speak on behalf of the Tang family?'

Things would be difficult if Lan Si continued to have a soft attitude.

So Cang Lian said, "Miss Lan, you've come just in time. This Tang family is so bold that they even dared to kill Elder Pan's disciple. In my opinion, it's better to destroy this whole family."

"How can that be?!” Lan Si immediately exclaimed.

At that moment, she heard a low cry from her side, "You're… Lan Si?”

Lan Si turned to look, only to find Tang Xuan's whole face covered in blood. Her four limbs were pierced through by sharp weapons, so she could only hang her head down.

"S-Sister Tang Xuan?!” Lan Si stared at the other side in disbelief, and even her voice was trembling.

The next moment, she flew to Tang Xuan's side, but a disciple of the Mystical Heaven Dao Hall next to her stopped her, "Miss Lan, this is the person who killed my Third Senior Brother. Please—"

"Get lost!" The furious Lan Si couldn't think at all. Terrifying divine power poured out instantly, and a brilliant blue radiance almost drowned the disciple.

Elder Pan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he took a step forward and pulled his disciple out so that he wouldn't get hurt by Lan Si, who'd lost control of her emotions.

'She's not too weak.' Cang Lian evaluated Lan Si's power from the sidelines with great interest. Lan Si's furious attack really did contain a bit of ferocity.

"Sister Tang Xuan, how… how are you?" The flustered Lan Si could only think of stopping Tang Xuan's bleeding while asking.

Tang Xuan, whose face was still pale as ash, said with a wry smile, "It's only right and proper to pay with my life for killing someone. I only hope you can persuade that Lord to leave my Tang family a way out."

Tang Xuan knew better than Lan Si what kind of figure the Mystical Heaven Dao Lord was.

In her opinion, her life was doomed the moment she killed the other party's third disciple. Although she survived, she would have to pay the price with her life. 'Even if Lan Si is backed by Gu Nan, will he be willing to offend a top Dao Lord just for me?'

But Lan Si said firmly, "No, I won't let you die!"

Before Tang Xuan could speak, the disciples of the Mystical Heaven Dao Hall over there became emotional, and one of them said, "Miss Lan, are you going to protect the murderer?"

"It turns out that they have a relationship with Miss Lan. No wonder this Tang family is so arrogant!"

"Ha, so what? The person who killed someone from our Mystical Heaven Dao Hall will naturally die. Even if we litigate this in court, our side will still be in the right."

Unabashed discussion could be heard, making Lan Si's face turn green and white alternately.

"Everyone, shut up!" Elder Pan, however, frowned and shouted deeply. His disciple's excessive disrespect for Lan Si gave him some ominous premonitions.

But he also didn't think about retreating either. Firstly, he couldn't chill the hearts of all his disciples. And secondly, Lan Si's recent performance really couldn't make him respect her.

After warning off his disciples, he cupped his hands at Lan Si. "Miss Lan, this person took my disciple's life. If you want to protect this person, please give an explanation to this old man."

Lan Si froze when she heard that. What kind of explanation could she give?

Tang Xuan was someone she must protect, but Elder Pan didn't seem to have any intentions of giving in either…

So she hesitated for a moment, then finally couldn't help taking out a black dagger and began to call for its owner.

The next moment, a dark shadow gradually materialized from the dagger, forming a human figure.

'Yes! That's it!' The Cang Lian Dao Lord couldn't help feeling happy when she saw this scene.

'Faced with this kind of situation, Lan Si will almost certainly have to ask that one for help. But even if it's that one, what can he do in this dilemma?'

At best, he'd just appease one party by virtue of his prestige, which would inevitably lead to dissatisfaction on the other side.

To put it another way, no matter how it ended, this matter obviously wouldn't give that one a good impression, and Lan Si would seem more and more incompetent in his eyes…

Moreover, after some thought, Cang Lian knew that she would certainly take Elder Pan's side if she was in Lan Si's position. After all, one side was a top Dao Lord, while the other was just an unknown small family.

If that one wanted to control the mainland, then he must take people's hearts into consideration.

The Mystical Heaven Dao Hall had been doing its utmost to carry out his orders. If it couldn't receive a good result after all that hard work, wouldn't it chill everyone's hearts?

The more she thought about this, the more certain Cang Lian was of that one's actions, and even the corners of her mouth couldn't help lifting up. Fortunately, she quickly hid her smile.

The shadow slowly materialized from the dagger and condensed into Gu Nan's figure. He coldly looked at the people around him.

Elder Pan was the first to bow down and say, "My young disciple died unjustly. My Lord, please give my Mystical Heaven Dao Hall justice."

And at this time, from behind Elder Pan, Du Chuan silently crushed the talisman tightly gripped in his hands all this time.

Two figures suddenly appeared in White Mist's headquarters on the mainland. They were precisely Luo Jie and Luo Fei.

Luo Jie looked excited right now.

"That person has gone to the Tang family. Let's save Xin'er right away!"
