"Young Master, you flatter me." Lang Yuan seemed completely oblivious to the probing in Li Molin's words and said humbly, "Young Master, you don't need to be so polite. Just call me by my name, Lang Yuan."
Li Molin nodded and smiled, "In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."
"Yes." Lang Yuan's gaze swept over Yu Ke and Ji Jue behind Li Molin, lingering on Liu Li for a moment. Soon, he turned his gaze back to Li Molin and said with a smile, "I have long wanted to visit your father in the North, but I haven't had a chance yet. Now that I have met the young master first, it saves me a lot of trouble."
Li Molin's smile grew wider, leaving Liuli stunned. In the end, Liuli shook her head, wondering to herself, "Could Li Molin have taken a liking to this Wolf Source?"
Little did she know what Li Molin was thinking. Regardless of whether others helped him or not, Lang Yuan's ability to survive the demon calamity made him a rare genius in this world. If such a genius could be recruited, he would be a great help in the future war between the righteous and the demonic.
Judging from Lang Yuan's behavior, he is quite willing to submit to the demon race. In fact, Lang Yuan's thoughts are not hard to understand. As a demon, the righteous path will naturally not tolerate his existence. Even if he is a genius, a tiger cannot withstand a pack of wolves. At this time, the righteous path is powerful. If he does not submit to the demon race, he will die a miserable death at the hands of the righteous path sooner or later.
So Li Molin and Lang Yuan hit it off immediately and started chatting away. Yelü Yan, who was standing to the side, endured it for a while and watched in silence. Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Young Master Lang, may I ask who these gentlemen are?"
Upon hearing this, Lang Yuan turned to look at Yelü Yan, pondered for a moment, and said calmly, "These are my friends."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Li Molin and asked, "It's getting late today, young master, why don't you stay the night?"
“Okay.” Li Molin nodded and readily agreed.
Lang Yuan turned to Yelü Yan and said without any politeness, "Then I'll trouble King Yelü to send someone to prepare a few tents for my friends to stay in."
While pondering the words "young master of the demon race" that Li Molin had mentioned at the beginning, Yelü Yan hesitated and nodded, saying, "Alright, someone come here!"
The tent flap was quickly lifted, and a soldier slipped in. He was startled to see several more people in the tent. He glanced hesitantly at Yelü Yan, and seeing that Yelü Yan did not appear angry, he relaxed slightly, bowed, and said, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
Yelü Yan waved his hand and said, "Go and prepare a few tents for these distinguished guests to stay in."
"Yes!" The soldier nodded in response and walked out briskly.
Li Molin looked at Yelü Yan and said calmly, "This must be King Yelü, right?"
Yelü Yan nodded and said, "You're too kind, young master."
Li Molin put his hands behind his back and said with a faint smile, "I roughly knew about the situation here when I came. Yu Ke, do you have a good plan to break through the barrier? If so, please offer it to King Yelü."
King Yelü's eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly, saying with delight, "Which one of you is Young Master Yu Ke? Do you have any good ideas?"
"Greetings, King Yelü." Yu Ke stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said in a deep voice, "If we want to break through the pass now, we must transfer Liang Yimo, the commander of the pass, away. I have thought about this roughly on the way here. Please wait a moment, King Yelü. I will present the plan to break through the pass to you tomorrow."
"Excellent!" Yelü Yan was overjoyed. He hurriedly came out from behind the table and said excitedly, "If Young Master Yu Ke can come up with a good plan to break through the barrier, I will reward him handsomely."
Yu Ke cupped his hands in greeting, took a step back, and retreated to stand behind Li Molin.
Seeing the undisguised joy on Yelü Yan's face, Li Molin smiled faintly and said, "To be honest, Your Majesty Yelü, the man behind me, Yu Ke, has studied military strategy and history since childhood and is very proficient in military tactics. We can stay with Yu Ke to help Your Majesty Yelü attack Yingyang. However, I have a condition, and I hope Your Majesty Yelü will consider it carefully."
Yelü Yan's joy vanished, and he asked hesitantly, "Please tell me, young master, what are your conditions?"
Li Molin said calmly, "If one day King Yelü is able to conquer Yingyang City and enter the palace, I want... the Imperial Seal of the State!"
Upon hearing this, Lang Yuan's expression shifted slightly.
Yelü Yan's face darkened, his expression turning extremely grim. After remaining silent for a long while, he said in a deep voice, "Young Master, please allow me to consider this..."
Li Molin nodded slightly and bowed gently, saying, "It's late tonight, Your Majesty Yelü should rest early."
Lang Yuan glanced at Yelü Yan's expression, then turned to Li Molin and said with a smile, "Alright, then I'll take the young master and the others to rest."
“Okay.” Li Molin replied with a smile, and followed Lang Yuan out of the tent with Liu Li and the others, without even saying goodbye to Yelü Yan.
Lang Yuan and Li Molin left in a flash, leaving Yelü Yan standing in the tent, the flickering candlelight casting shadows on his ugly face.
Lang Yuan led Li Molin and Liu Li through the numerous tents. After walking for a short while, they arrived at several interconnected tents under the guidance of the soldier they had just met. Lang Yuan led Li Molin and the others to an empty tent, and then he returned to his own tent to rest.
Li Molin stood in the small tent, looking around. Just as he was about to extinguish the candle and go to sleep, someone suddenly lifted the curtain at the back. He turned around in confusion and saw Liuli carrying Ahua walking straight in through the curtain.
Li Molin was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Liu Li walked up to Li Molin and asked, puzzled, "Li Molin, if you want the Imperial Seal, why don't you just snatch it from the Emperor? Why come here to help that Yelü King and let him get the seal first? Isn't that too much trouble?"
