Chapter 129 The Disappearing Khan
Yu Cang was silent.
After a moment, he tentatively asked, "And then... do you need me to V you 50?"
"Ah?" Lou Yan was stunned. "What do you mean..."
"Ahem, nothing." Yu Cang coughed lightly, "I mean, how are you going to prove what you said?"
"I..." Lou Yan hesitated, "Can we go to a place where there's no one to talk?"
"That's fine. Actually, I don't care about your identity." Yu Cang smiled. "Let's talk about something else. From what you just said... do you know my father?"
Hearing his father's name, Yu Cang's heart was now perked up.
"I don't know your father. I just heard his name." Lou Yan was not surprised by Cang's attitude. He smiled and said, "Let's find a place where there is no one. After all, you don't want others to know what I am going to say next... For example, do you want to know the truth about your father's disappearance?"
"Oh, I understand." Yu Cang acted as if he suddenly understood something.
Lou Yan nodded: "I understand. Let's go. I know a place where there is absolutely no one... Hmm? What is this?"
There was a crisp "click" sound, and Lou Yan looked down and saw that Yu Cang had fixed four strange objects on his wrists. Some soul card phantom fragments were dissipating around his hands. Obviously, these four objects must have been summoned by the soul cards.
Soul Card? We were talking fine, why would you use a Soul Card on yourself?
Lou Yan was stunned. Before he could react, he felt his brain sink instantly and his spiritual world seemed to solidify. For a moment, he lost all his strength and fell limply onto the table.
Yu Cang stretched out his hand and supported Lou Yan's body.
He leaned closer and whispered, "You're from the Desolate Sect, right? I don't know why you dare to appear before me, but... come with me."
After experiencing what happened to Shen Zheng, he had a natural wariness towards those who suddenly appeared and approached him by taking advantage of his parents' affairs.
Facts have proved that the disappearance of his parents has caused great consequences, and there are still many people with bad intentions paying attention to him, so it is better to be careful in everything.
And Lou Yan is now confused.
Wait…what is this! Why do I feel so weak and dizzy? What did you do to me?
No, that's not right. The plot shouldn't unfold like this... Your tone is very dangerous!
What is the Desolate Sect... Isn't it something that only appears in history books? It's better if I don't know anything about it!
No, let me say something first and listen to my explanation!
Yu Cang naturally couldn't hear Lou Yan's thoughts.
Once locked in the absolute pressure lock, the mental pressure will immediately rise to the upper limit. In this case, don't even think about moving and can only let yourself be at its mercy.
Putting Lou Yan's head on the table, Yu Cang straightened up and said in a distressed tone, "Oh, what's going on? Didn't you get enough rest yesterday? You fell asleep already... Never mind." He turned his head and said, "Boss, you can take those two servings of mango sago."
"Okay, wait a moment."
…
When the mango sago was ready, Yu Cang helped Lou Yan up and walked out of the store. Qi'er followed closely behind him, holding two large packaging boxes.
Since Lou Yan said at the beginning that he was Yu Cang's friend and even called Yu Cang brother...so when seeing this, the others didn't show any strangeness.
In this way, Yu Cang brought Lou Yan all the way back to the base.
"Hmm?" Lin Yunqing raised his eyebrows, and after thinking for a moment, his eyes suddenly became serious, "Senior, human trafficking is illegal!"
"...It's not what you think." Yu Cang's mouth twitched, "He might be from the Desolate Sect... Never mind, let's talk about it later."
After saying that, Yu Cang took Lou Yan back to his room and closed the door.
Putting him on a chair, Yu Cang lifted his head and said, "This is a military camp. Outside the room is heavily guarded, and there are sentries everywhere. In short, you can't escape from here, and you can't cause any trouble. Do you understand?"
Hearing this, Lou Yan's brows seemed to frown, his eyelids blinked, and cold sweat broke out on his face from time to time, but the mental pressure had filled his brain, making it impossible for him to make larger movements.
"Very good." Yu Cang brushed his hand across Lou Yan's wrist and cancelled the summons of the Absolute Pressure Lock.
"Uh-aha!"
Lou Yan looked as if he had just woken from a dream. He straightened up and then collapsed again. Sitting on the chair, he looked at Yu Cang in fear, shrinking back with the chair. "What...what are you going to do?"
"..." Yu Cang rolled his eyes, "Don't act like that. You don't think the same move can work on me twice, do you?"
"What... I don't know what you're talking about." Lou Yan was sweating anxiously. "I really don't know what the Desolate Sect is. I swear, I came looking for you only because I heard your name and your parents' name from someone else, and I happened to hear someone calling you at the sweet shop, so I recognized you... As for the other things you mentioned, I really don't know anything!"
He seemed to understand a little.
Someone must have used this method to deceive Yu Cang before, so he imposed this vigilance on himself!
He is wronged!
"Oh, that's right!" Lou Yan quickly took out a wooden token from his body and gestured to Yu Cang, "This is my royal court token. Look, only those with the bloodline of the Khan of the Hunter Clan's Great Royal Court can activate the soul card patterns on it... Look! It lights up!"
really.
Yu Cang could see that Lou Yan was not old enough, and his soul energy well was still in an unawakened latent state. Logically speaking, in this state, he should not be able to use any soul card patterns, but he didn't know what he did to make the token light up.
"Hmm?" Yu Cang raised his brows.
He took the token and examined it carefully... It did have a nice soul card pattern, a style he had never seen before, but he didn't know much about the Hunter King's Court, so he couldn't tell whether the token was real or not.
Judging from this guy's reaction, it doesn't seem like it's fake.
However, he did not let his guard down. After all, he had not noticed Shen Zheng's acting skills at the beginning.
Don't be in a hurry. We are now on our own territory. This guy can't run away anyway. You can ask him slowly.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang pulled over a chair and sat opposite Lou Yan.
"Let's put your identity aside for now." Yu Cang smiled. "Now, tell me everything you know. Is that okay?"
"No...no problem." Lou Yan shivered.
Brother, has anyone told you that you really look like a villain?
On the other side, Qi'er had put on a pair of sunglasses, hugged his chest, and stood arrogantly beside Yu Cang.
On the other side... Ye Lai also found a pair of sunglasses from somewhere, stood next to Yu Cang on a table symmetrical with Qi'er, and stared at Lou Yan.
The two of them looked like protectors on both sides.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you." Seeing this, Lou Yan swallowed his saliva and thought for a moment before saying, "I... have you heard of the Emperor Khan of the Hunter Clan?"
"I've heard of the legend of your hunter tribe." Yu Cang nodded. "What happened to him?"
"Actually, we haven't seen Emperor Khan for a long time," Lou Yan said. "Although Khan is quite old, we used to see him leaving the Great King's Court during festivals, riding a horse and doing activities in the Longevity Tent. But since when, Emperor Khan has not appeared again...
"The Imperial Master said that Emperor Khan is old and needs to rest. He will help Khan take care of his health and told us not to worry. At first, we thought so too, but..."
Lou Yan paused for a moment before continuing, "But, since then, the Imperial Master's behavior has become increasingly bizarre. He began to control the various tribes, both overtly and covertly, sending troops to suppress those who disobeyed him, and even killing quite a few people... Some people wanted to see the Emperor Khan, but were stopped by the Imperial Master. My eldest brother even tried to contact the Emperor Khan using the Bloodline Secret Card, but received no response. He was even imprisoned on a fabricated charge by the Imperial Master..."
"So." Yu Cang raised his brows slightly. He thought for a moment and said, "Then, what does this have to do with me?"
"Because your father came to us a few years ago and helped us fight against the Imperial Master, but he was never defeated and was captured..."
Before Lou Yan could finish his words, Qi'er suddenly interrupted him.
"Brother, he's lying!" The girl pointed at Lou Yan, her lips raised smugly, "I can smell the smell of lies in his head!"
"Hmm... did you hear that?" Yu Cang's expression remained unchanged. "No matter what you want to do when you find me, I suggest you tell the truth... Lying will not lead to good results."
After several days of testing, Dr. Ji discovered that due to her ability, Qi'er would briefly access the other person's spiritual world when plundering their soul energy. At this time, some emotions active on the surface would be easily captured by the girl.
Qi'er could easily see through such a crude lie with just a glance.
Lou Yan’s acting may be natural, but if he wants to hide his little thoughts in front of Qi’er, he is still far from it.
"I didn't!" Lou Yan wanted to argue, but before he could say anything, he saw Yu Cang's eyes gradually turning cold.
Thinking of the feeling that was worse than death just now, Lou Yan swallowed his saliva and his neck gradually shrank.
"Okay... Actually, your father hasn't been captured yet. He's just at the Great King's Court... Okay, okay, I'll tell you the truth." Lou Yan held his head. "Your father has never been to the Changsheng Tent, and I've never seen him... But one time, my eldest brother overheard the Imperial Preceptor talking to some unfamiliar voices, and your father's name was mentioned... Oh, and you, too."
Lou Yan recalled, "My eldest brother told me that the Imperial Master's tone was extremely gnashing, as if your father had ruined one of their plans... He also said something like 'It doesn't matter, just let his son Yu Cang come'..."
"Oh?" Yu Cang raised his brows, "And then?"
"Then..." Lou Yan raised his eyes, looked at Yu Cang and Qi'er beside him, bit his lip, and said truthfully, "Then... that's all, big brother heard... Later, big brother was captured, and at the last moment he sent someone to send me out, but I didn't know who to ask for help, so I thought, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Since you and the National Master are enemies, I came to you and tried my luck. Maybe I can borrow reinforcements..."
"Is that so?" Yu Cang glanced at Qi'er beside him. The girl nodded, indicating that Lou Yan was not lying this time.
He could only sigh: "Okay, I understand...but this is your country's own business, we have no right to interfere."
"No, no, no, this isn't just our business," Lou Yan said hurriedly. "There's a mysterious organization behind the Imperial Master and his men. Although we don't know what it is, they're definitely planning something against humanity! Ever since the Khan disappeared, chaos has been rampant in the Longevity Tent. There's also a strange disease spreading within the Longevity Tent that can cause people to become insane and extremely bloodthirsty. That's definitely the work of the Imperial Master and his men!"
"Since they mentioned your name during their planning, it means that Yan Country is definitely their next target. Yu Cang, you don't want this strange disease to spread within Yan Country, do you?"
Yu Cang: "...Don't say such things."
"Ah? What kind of words?" Lou Yan was stunned.
"Nothing." Yu Cang frowned.
"Yu Cang, this is definitely not a trivial matter." Lou Yan looked anxious. "Wasn't the Mountain Realm Ancient Country supported by many countries before? This time it must be the same..."
At this point, he was suddenly stunned.
The ancient Mountain Realm nation was destroyed by the civil strife started by the Desolate Sect. And didn't Yu Cang just say that someone from the Desolate Sect had come to him using the matter of Yu Cang's father...
Wait! Could the organization behind the Imperial Master be the Desolate Sect?
Lou Yan's face turned pale, and a trace of panic began to spread in his heart.
He had no choice but to panic, because this was an organization that had a record of destroying countries!
Originally, he thought this was just a trick played by the Imperial Master to usurp the throne, but now it seems... is the Hunter Clan also going to follow in the footsteps of the ancient kingdom of the Mountain Realm?
He panicked all of a sudden, took a few steps forward, knelt in front of Yu Cang, and begged, "Yu Cang, can you please help me... I really don't know who to turn to. I don't know anyone in Yan Country. The power behind the State Master is too great, and I can't tell who his spies are. The only one I can trust is you... Help me, please?"
Yu Cang frowned slightly, he stretched out his hand and pulled Lou Yan up.
Lou Yan didn't want to get up, but Yu Cang was much stronger than him.
"I'm only one person, so I can't help you." Yu Cang shook his head. "However, I can report this matter to the military district. If they think it's necessary, they will come to help you."
Thanks to Greed for the tip!
