Chapter 19 refers to the Ring Battle (Part 5)

Thunder rumbled tonight, lightning tore through the sky, and rain poured down.

The battle between Lei Shou and the ruthless poisoner Levi was a one-sided affair, with one side being the carefree five-year-old Lambo and the other being the experienced and ruthless Levi.

Sasakawa Kyoko and Sasakawa Ryohei came together.

She is a very proactive person. When she came back, she had a heart-to-heart talk with her brother about this topic, which ended with Sasagawa Ryohei's compromise.

Lambo was excited all day, and even more so now. Wearing his little rain boots, he danced around in Yao Chuanling's arms, and the little cow horns on his head fell off again.

Gokudera Hayato picked it up, complaining that Lambo was always causing trouble, and wrote the words "Stupid Bull" on the bull's horn.

Lambo was only five years old, and besides, he couldn't even beat I-Pin, let alone Levi.

Sawada Tsunayoshi hesitated.

He had long regarded Lambo as his younger brother and didn't want him to die in vain.

But he still went to the battlefield.

The Povino family developed the Ten-Year Bazooka, which allows one to switch places with their present self ten years in the future. Whenever Lambo feels bullied, he runs to the future and summons the next Lambo.

But this time, even 10+ Rambo couldn't beat him. He was no different from five-year-old Rambo, and he also cried as he crawled into the 10-year rocket launcher.

Fifteen-year-old Lambo was replaced by twenty-five-year-old Lambo.

Purple smoke filled the air.

Twenty-five-year-old Lambo appeared before everyone.

Seeing him, Yao Chuanling frowned uncomfortably.

She almost, almost empathized with the Lambeau before her. His profound sadness and depression almost completely enveloped her.

What's wrong?

What happened twenty years later?

Seeing the younger brothers and sisters lessened Lambo's sadness considerably.

He glanced at everyone's youthful faces, his gaze lingering on the elf before he hesitated and asked, "Who... are you?"

Was this person ever involved in the battle for the Ring?

Lambo knew everyone present, including Varia, the advisor outside the door, and the Cerbero Agency. Except for her.

Even if he was too young to remember, he had never seen her or heard of her from either the Vongola or the rival Millefiore family in the long run.

With her beauty, even if it was only once, he could never forget her.

Yao Chuanling blinked her dry eyes; she felt like she was about to cry.

"I'm Yaochuan Ling, Lambo."

In Fuutai's ranking of the Vongola's most beloved children, Lambo is first, and Yokawa Rei is second.

Because Yokawa Rei also dotes on Lambo, even more so than Tsuna.

Five-year-old Lambo cat dislikes dogs, a personality trait typically found in pampered children.

Lambo's favorite person is this older sister.

Even knowing that Lambo wasn't from the same world, she still felt sad.

Yao, Chuan, Ling?!

Lambo's pupils contracted.

He had heard of that name.

The leader of the Milfiore tribe, Byran Gesso, is conducting a large-scale manhunt for her.

“Miss Yaochuan…”

He didn't know how to address her, so he paused and chose the one that was least likely to make a mistake.

Twenty-five-year-old Lambeau said wearily yet solemnly, "Beware of Whitey Gesso."

To be honest, he didn't want to mention this person's name at all when he reunited with the younger Vongola members.

Although he really wanted to catch up with the Vongola members, now didn't seem like a good time, as the ruthless Varia uncle was watching him closely.

That's someone I know.

Lambo sighed and resignedly picked up the original bull horn and half of the Vongola ring that had fallen to the ground.

At least, he was already very content to be able to see his beloved older brothers and sisters again.

Brandon Gesso?

Yao Chuanling didn't recognize him, but from Lambo's tone, she could tell that this person must have done something extraordinary in the future to make Lambo so wary.

At fifteen, she decided to first dislike this person.

The 25-year-old elf disliked Byakuran from the first moment she saw him.

"Rambo!"

As young Lambo channeled electricity into the ground, just as he was about to attack Levi with his Thunder Horn, the ten-year expiration of the rocket launcher expired, and the twenty-five-year-old Lambo instantly turned into a five-year-old Lambo.

Sawada Tsunayoshi rushed forward in a hurry.

Lambo shouldn't have been allowed to play.

He thought with regret.

Yao Chuanling was a step ahead of him; by the time she found her, Lan Bo was already in her arms, gently coaxing her.

The little cow, who had just returned and almost lost her life on the spot, was so frightened that she cried and grabbed Yao Chuanling's clothes, asking her to teach Levi a lesson.

"Is the outcome decided now?"

The elf's gaze swept over with a rather imposing air, but his face was all smiles.

Whenever she made a mistake, Abe no Seimei would laugh like that, making her feel uneasy, and then say, "I'll borrow you for a moment, I'll borrow you for a moment."

Ah, that's a forced smile.

Sawada Tsunayoshi thought to himself, but dared not say it aloud. He was afraid of being beaten by Reborn.

The Cerberos sisters immediately agreed and announced the result.

Otherwise, I always feel like she'll beat them both up.

"Miss Ling, the competition is over. We won't disturb you any longer."

One of the women said respectfully, and then the two of them darted away.

Lord Gakafis declared that this visitor from another world was free to do whatever she wanted, and they couldn't stop her anyway.

The people below had various expressions.

No one knew why the Cerbero Organization, which claimed to be directly under the Ninth Generation, treated her with such respect.

"Now that the troublesome person is gone, it's time for us to settle the score."

Lambo lay on Yao Chuanling's head, seemingly finding support, and boldly made faces at Levi.

Eight umbrellas were launched simultaneously to surround them, and Yaochuan Ling decisively threw Lambo into Sawada Tsunayoshi's arms.

"Lightning has no effect on me."

The elf raised his eyes and looked lightly at Levi.

She caught the lightning bolt that was attacking her, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the sky.

"This...this stupid woman is so amazing?!"

Below, Gokudera Hayato stared in disbelief.

If you don't speak up when you should, aren't you just not human?

That day, Squalo came on strong, but he fell in front of her and didn't see Yao Chuanling make a move. This was the first time he had faced her strength directly.

A chasm.

The word popped into Gokudera Hayato's mind.

"Hehehe, Levi is going to get a beating."

Belphegor gloated.

He remained motionless, ready to watch the show. Rescue people? That was completely out of character for the Varyans.

"Give me a million dollars, I'll help you out, since we're colleagues."

The baby wearing a cloak spoke softly.

Upon hearing this, Yao Chuanling put her index finger to her lips and winked at him.

A bolt of lightning struck Levi; the lightning was so fast that he had no time to dodge.

Yao Chuanling knew her limits; the lightning strike would injure her, not kill her. She stepped forward, intending to give him a beating.

After all, a bolt of lightning can't compare to the satisfying feeling of a punch landing on your flesh.

“voi—kid, we didn’t finish last time, today is the perfect opportunity.”

Out of a sense of camaraderie and admiration for the strong, the combat captain Squalo jumped off the stage and stood in front of Levi.

Yamamoto Takeshi frowned and said coldly, "Squalo, your opponent is me."

As fellow guardians of rain, they were bound to clash sooner or later, so Yamamoto Takeshi's statement was understandable.

Squalo scoffed at him: "Kid, you think you can protect her? You're much weaker than her."

Yao Chuanling didn't like hearing that. She covered her ears and said very loudly, "I believe A-Wu can definitely beat you!"

Squalo's voice is so loud, she needs to speak louder to be more imposing.

Although she always relied on her intuition to choose the best snacks, the elf's intuition was always very accurate.

Squalo didn't like hearing this and was about to lash out when XANXUS beat him to it.

“Sawada Tsunayoshi,” the tall, imposing boy rose from his throne, looking down at him, “how about exchanging her for the Flowing Cloud Ring?”

Undeniably, he did develop some interest in her. He'd finally found someone who wasn't completely trash among a pile of garbage.

"Impossible. Yao Chuanling is our companion, not an item that can be traded."

Sawada Tsunayoshi blurted it out without even thinking.

He wasn't fighting for the position of Vongola boss; Sawada Tsunayoshi had always only wanted to protect his comrades.

For some reason, XANXUS burst into laughter. His laughter lasted quite a while, and Yao Chuanling almost asked Squalo if their boss had some serious illness.

"Laughable nonsense, weak flame, you are just like the old man. No wonder he was temporarily bewitched and chose you."

Being very close to him, the elf sensed that something was wrong with him—a suppressed, overflowing anger and a tiny bit of sadness.

Hmm? That's strange. Can sadness really be a feeling he experiences?

Yao Chuanling stared at him with unusual interest.

The other party was still spouting wild words, revealing nothing but arrogance and overbearing attitude.

After finishing his speech, he grabbed Yao Chuanling's hand and tried to leave. After all, what XANXUS wanted, he had to get no matter what.

"I'm sleepy, see you all tomorrow."

Lately, she's been busy until late at night, which is completely out of character for her usual early to bed and late to rise routine. Yao Chuanling is feeling sleepy right now and has started to slack off.

Where can't you sleep?

It doesn't matter, I'll go to sleep first.

To prevent any further trouble, she greeted everyone, indicating that she was fine, and reminded them to go to bed early as well.

Not far away, a man in black watched the battle, toying with the ring on his hand, and sighed, "Sleepy and protective, just like before, Yao Chuanling."

"You're as naive as ever, Sawada Tsunayoshi. You haven't changed."
