Chapter 561 I Admit Defeat
Upon hearing this, Bai Liuyun finally understood.
He said to Ling Ran, "We can go outside."
Ling Ran refused immediately upon hearing this: "No need, it will be over soon."
Luo Han: "..."
This isn't a matter of speed, sir.
But he dared not say anything more.
After all, Wei had told him privately that if Ling Ran was willing to stay, she could even live in the Forbidden City.
Seeing that Ling Ran didn't understand the roundabout way of speaking, Bai Liuyun went straight to the point: "My lord, we are all high-level ability users. If we start fighting, the palace will probably be destroyed. So let's fight outside."
Ling Ran glanced at Bai Liuyun with amusement. Did he really think he had a chance to make a move?
She said calmly, "Don't worry, it won't be destroyed."
Having said all that, neither Luo Han nor Bai Liuyun could say anything more. To say anything more would seem like a sign of distrust towards their superiors.
"Okay, shall we begin?"
Seeing this, the others quickly retreated several steps to avoid being caught in the crossfire. Only Pei Yi and his group did not retreat, standing not far behind Ling Ran.
Luo Han reminded him, "Young Master Pei, shouldn't you stay away a bit?"
"Need not."
"ah?"
Pei Yi offered no explanation, nor did the others. Seeing that the people wouldn't back down, Bai Liuyun ignored them and simply raised his hand.
Just as the lightning began to emerge in his palm and was not yet fully unleashed, Ling Ran said softly, "God said that Bai Liuyun cannot use supernatural abilities."
Bai Liuyun was filled with questions upon hearing this. Before he could even think about what Ling Ran meant, he clearly felt that the continuous flow of energy had suddenly disappeared.
"Where are my powers? Where are my powers?"
Bai Liuyun panicked.
His superpowers are the foundation for his survival in the apocalypse.
He couldn't accept losing his superpowers; after all, what difference would that make from becoming a cripple?
He refused to accept that he had become a useless person.
Just as Bai Liuyun was panicking, he suddenly remembered something and looked up at Ling Ran: "You, your superpower, it's you! It's your superpower, right?"
"Um."
Ling Ran calmly admitted, "Didn't Xiao Wei tell you? My special ability is that my words can become law."
Words become law.
Bai Liuyun certainly knew.
But knowing something is one thing, and knowing how to use it is another. After all, he didn't know that this ability, which allows words to become law, could be used in this way to prevent others from using their powers.
What the hell is this?!
So, does that mean we can make him lose his superpowers directly, or make someone without superpowers suddenly have superpowers?
For some reason, Bai Liuyun suddenly remembered the information he had seen about Ling Ran's team.
In their team, everyone except the husky they found at the provincial capital base has superpowers, including the pig.
Before this, they had never seen any animal mutate and gain superpowers.
Is this a coincidence?
Ling Ran ignored Bai Liuyun's brainstorming and instead looked at Bai Liuyun: "Want to continue the competition? Should I get you some weapons?"
"No, no need."
Bai Liuyun quickly refused, shaking his head vigorously: "My lord, could you please restore my supernatural power?"
With such a powerful and binding force, what's the point of fighting?
He's completely out of his mind.
Bai Liuyun was arrogant and conceited, but he wasn't stupid.
He understood the saying that there are always people better than him and there is always something beyond his understanding, but he never expected that the people outside would be this strong.
It seems he's been living in a well and looking at the sky from his base in Beijing.
He believed that the Beijing base was the strongest in the country, and he was one of the top performers in the base, so he assumed that he was the strongest.
"God said, restore Bai Liuyun's supernatural power."
Upon hearing this, Bai Liuyun quickly mobilized the energy within his body, and breathed a sigh of relief when lightning reappeared in his palm.
The superpower remains, and the level has not changed.
He quickly said, "Sir, I admit defeat."
When Bai Liuyun looked up at Ling Ran again, there was already an expression of admiration in her eyes.
He wouldn't ask about the things he had just been thinking about, nor were they his business. But the powerful figure before him was terrifyingly strong, worthy of his respect and admiration!
The others were completely bewildered.
What?
Is this friendly competition really over so abruptly?
It ended before it even started?
Luo Han and the others looked at Pei Yi and the others, and then they understood why they hadn't retreated. It turned out that the sparring session had ended with just one sentence.
"If there's nothing else, let's all go home."
Ling Ran said this and was about to turn and leave when she heard a thud, and Bai Liuyun in front of her knelt down.
"Holy crap!" Pei Xiu and the others were startled by his sudden action: "What are you doing?"
Bai Liuyun looked at Ling Ran excitedly: "Please, my lord, accept me as your disciple!"
Ling Ran: "???"
I don't really understand you Gen Zers. Is this some kind of abstract concept?
Before she could speak, Pei Xiu became indignant: "Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by taking you as a disciple? Do you think this is martial arts or immortal cultivation? This is a superpower. Whether you have it or not depends on fate. Even if you have a superpower, you still need crystal cores, or you need to fight and time, not a master! Or are you saying that you want to become a disciple so that my sister will be a sucker and give you crystal cores for free?"
The more Pei Xiu talked, the more he felt that Bai Liuyun was probably thinking the same thing.
Otherwise, what else would be worth him becoming an apprentice to?
This ability cannot be taught.
Everyone else nodded in agreement when they heard Pei Yi's words, as if that was the only reason.
Bai Liuyun looked at Ling Ran sincerely: "I think Master's superpower should be the best in the world. I want to be the disciple of the best person in the world. I don't lack crystal cores."
Then he is second only to one person!
The rest of the people: "..."
So you just want a title, right?
"No, we won't accept it."
Ling Ran refused curtly, then turned and left, saying, "I'm tired."
"My lord, I will not give up! I will definitely make you accept me as your apprentice!"
Ling Ran: "..."
I really can't be bothered with this brat.
After Ling Ran left, the others didn't disperse but instead surrounded Pei Xiu and the others, asking about Ling Ran's special abilities.
"The word of an adult can be used like this? Is it really true that a word becomes law?"
"Then, sir, could you help someone with lumbar muscle strain? My back has been hurting terribly lately."
"No, if words can become law, then can't we just make the island nation disappear? I think I'm going to have a really bad time."
"Is now the time to make this island nation disappear? Is it possible to make all the zombies in the world—no, just in our country—disappear?"
"That probably won't work. If it were possible, the master would have already taken action."
Pei Xiu and the others dared not open their mouths to answer these questions, fearing that they would not answer them well.
Therefore, Pei Yi, Gu Zijing, or Shen Nianshen answered the questions. The three were mature and their answers were watertight.
"If it is said that what is said will become law, then it is said that what is said will become law."
"Theoretically, it is possible to treat lumbar muscle strain, but the specific treatment depends on how much energy is required."
