After all, Ye Lina not only plays the role of attracting the attention of the whole world, but also bears a considerable proportion in the subsequent actions.
“It’s easy for someone who has ambition to become addicted to a completely different identity and a completely different power,” Quintina said.
"This can be considered a test for her." Su Yao didn't care much. "Joining the association will change her status. If she is really immersed in such desires, then she is not qualified to join us, let alone pass the association's assessment."
For Su Yao, having been in the association for more than 20 years, she has long regarded the association as her home.
Therefore, we attach great importance to the absorption of new members.
Everything she was doing at this moment, as she said, was also a test for Ye Lina.
Quintina nodded slightly and said nothing more.
At this moment, Yelena has already met her father.
This was the second time she met the king since she came to this country and this palace.
The last time was when I got off the plane.
But just over a month later, when I saw this king who was revered, feared and followed by countless people, I had a completely different mentality.
"There is still no reverence in your eyes." King Langdon did not hide his displeasure.
This may also be the reason why he never saw Ye Lina again.
A person who does not fear the king will not be loved by the king.
"Because I suddenly realized that no matter how powerful you are, you are just an ordinary person in some ways." Ye Lina said calmly, "You are afraid of death, you desire power, and you will try every means to get what you want. The reason why I didn't realize this before is because my value is too low."
"So, you think you are now worthy of having an equal conversation with me?"
King Langdon's tone suddenly became heavier, and his authority also changed in an instant.
In this country, he holds the highest power and has countless admirers. His words and deeds can determine the life and death of others. This is the deterrence brought by power.
But, there was something that made Yelena awed and terrified in the past.
Until now, it didn't give her that feeling.
Even Ye Lina herself was amazed at this change in mentality.
But, she knew very well.
This is not arrogance, it's just that she has someone more worthy of awe.
——Mystery and power.
It is not the power that comes from power, prestige, or status, but the pure, primitive power that is deeply engraved in the instincts of every living thing.
"As for status, I think I am higher now." Ye Lina raised her right hand and showed the ring on her finger to the man who was the king. "You already know what this is. Do you still have the courage and ability to imprison me, offend me, or even execute me now?"
It seems to sense the owner's emotions.
There was an inexplicable light flowing on the ring.
With a soul-stirring shock.
What is shocking is not the ring or the light, but the mystery and power behind the ring.
King Langdon stared at Yelena intently. There was anger and struggle in his eyes, but at the same time, there was hesitation.
The first one to look away was King Langdon.
Because he knew very well that he had already lost, he could really just ignore the consequences and execute his daughter who dared to challenge his authority.
But from the moment he began to hesitate in his heart, he clearly understood that he had lost the so-called royal power, lost to mystery and desire.
Ye Lina also got the same result.
An unusual feeling of joy emerged in her heart, just like a small person who had been suppressed for a long time, and suddenly one day, she felt the joy of surpassing the big person she once looked up to and feared.
However, Ye Lina did not continue after all.
"I don't want to be like you," she said. "So, forget about status, power, or who is more valuable or noble. I know what you want. Let's make a deal."
King Langdon heard this.
He looked at his daughter deeply, as if he was meeting her for the first time.
"You know what I want, so what do you want?"
"It's very simple." Ye Lina clenched her fists slightly, her eyes seemed to be emitting scorching light, "I have always had a dream, a naive and childish dream that will definitely be ridiculed by people like you, but now I may be able to do it, that is - the extinction of the dark world!"
It is clearly the same world, but it has been divided into two parts since a very early time.
One is a world in light, the other is a world in darkness.
One has everything that most people desire: peace, tranquility, prosperity, and relative equality; the other has everything that most people fear: blood, cruelty, destruction, and strict hierarchy!
It gets worse.
The former is nothing but a false lie, while the latter is the truth of this world.
Therefore, even King Langdon did not expect this.
"I didn't expect you to be so childish." He looked at her again with a sneer and confusion, as if he had just gotten to know Ye Lina again. "The extinction of the dark world? That sounds like something a child would say."
"I've already said it." Ye Lina's expression turned cold, "I don't need your approval, this is just a deal."
"Yes, a deal." King Langdon also replied to the king who was full of authority, as if he had regained the initiative of everything, and said calmly, "But have you forgotten that the premise of this deal is that the power behind you is really that strong, and not just pretending to be so disparate?"
“.”
Ye Lina looked at the ring on her finger, and suddenly an idea came to her mind. A piece of red crystal suddenly appeared in the palm of her hand.
"This ring alone should be able to prove something."
King Langdon did not reply, but his eyes became visibly more serious.
People like him will not believe what others say casually.
Unless you experience it yourself and see it with your own eyes.
And everything before his eyes was indeed beyond his imagination.
Regardless of whether it was a treasure from mythology or some high-tech, it was something far beyond his current level, and it even made people doubt whether this was the power of this world.
