Ling Tianyu paced back and forth inside the main hall, while Xi Lan smiled, picked up an orange, peeled it, and handed it to Ling Tianyu.
Ling Tianyu ate it simply, just to have a taste.
"The return of Emperor Chi Cheng will probably take more time. Power like his is akin to that of a chancellor in a dynasty, too much power," Xi Lan said. "It's very likely that he won't succeed in obtaining it."
"I never intended to get it in the first place," Ling Tianyu laughed. "If I get it, I'll continue to delay. If I don't, Emperor Chi Cheng will certainly figure out more ways to win us over, after all, he is already inclined to do so."
Upon hearing this, Xi Lan pondered for a moment. Indeed, if that's the case, the delay continues.
"What if the result is secure?" Xi Lan asked.
Once it is secured, it results in a completely different outcome.
"I have my own ways," Ling Tianyu responded. "I'll handle it."
Xi Lan nodded.
