Chapter 276 Tragic Child



Everyone watched with a mixture of glee and sympathy as the Lord of Blackwater City staggered back to the tent. Some sharp-eyed people even noticed that the moment the tent curtain was lowered, the Lord of Blackwater City seemed to have fainted.

The main reason is to gloat over other people's misfortune, while the sympathy comes from watching a good show. I think that the city lord could have picked on anyone else, but he picked on a tough guy, so he must be very upset!

Watching the Lord of Blackwater City leave, Yang Lan'er naturally knew that this man really fainted in the end.

Spreading her hands innocently, Yang Lan'er said that this person had a poor tolerance and it was none of her business.

Before everyone could wake up and continue doing their own things, a guard ran over and said, "Your Highness, the Blackwater City team has woken up, but their captain..."

Looking at Yang Lan'er, the guard felt a little embarrassed and sympathetic.

This look made Yang Lan'er feel amused. She touched her chin and waited for what happened next.

Prince Qian Ke felt a chuckle in his heart. Has this matter not been played out yet? People from Blackwater City, can you please stop making trouble? It's obvious that they can't win...

Looking around, I saw many people still peeking in, obviously they were very concerned and curious about this matter.

Qian Ke felt his temples throbbing, and said helplessly: "Go ahead! What did the captain of Blackwater City say?"

The guard was a little angry and sighed: "He said that this girl stole the fog grass from their team."

Hearing this, everyone was silent. Are all the members of this Blackwater City team mentally retarded? What's there to say about ten people being robbed by one person? Moreover, Blackwater City has never done such a thing in previous competitions? When has the competition ever banned this behavior, and has it ever sought justice for others? Qian Ke's mouth twitched. Could it be that the Blackwater City team is now seeking justice? Even if the thief cries "Catch the thief", it's not as fast as this. Strange things happen every year, and this year there are especially many...

Yang Lan'er was very interested: "They said that I stole their fog grass?"

As soon as they saw Yang Lan'er's expression, everyone observed three seconds of silence for the Blackwater City team.

This time, without waiting for the guards to reply, the captain of the Blackwater City team came out with striped clothes and scars all over his body, limping, his face full of anger and pitiful sympathy. From a distance, he shouted: "Your Highness, this woman stole our mist grass, we can't let her succeed..."

The sound spread far away, and the scene was instantly quiet for a few breaths. Everyone couldn't help but sigh, "Blackwater City Team, you are doing this to your own death. Does your city lord know about it?" The people of the Blackwater City team didn't know that their city lord had already lost. Now that the Blackwater City lord had fainted, he would never have thought that his own team members would come out to commit suicide and use such a lame excuse.

Qian Ke held his forehead with his hand, feeling a headache. Why was he making a fuss about something that even children didn't care about?

Yang Lan'er looked at Captain Blackwater with disdain as he tried to gain sympathy. Did he really think that the onlookers were all fools?

"You said I stole your mist grass?" Yang Lan'er smiled gently, with absolute beauty.

Captain Blackwater shrank his neck, his face full of fear and as if he had been ravaged, he looked even more sad and pitiful.

He wasn't pretending, he was really scared. The beating he received from Yang Lan'er had left him with a lot of trauma.

The action represented the answer. Yang Lan'er smiled and said, "Low IQ is a flaw, so it's better not to bring it out to embarrass yourself. I robbed ten of you by myself? If you say that, do you want all the people you robbed in previous duels to come and ask for it back?"

The Blackwater captain's pupils widened, and he stood there in a daze for a moment. He stuttered for several times before he spoke a few words incoherently: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a man... fair... He will definitely... help us..."

"You mean, the people in charge in the past were unfair? So they encouraged you to do evil?" Yang Lan'er joked. If she remembered correctly, the emperor of the dynasty was in charge in the past. This time, it was mainly to train the prince's ability.

"..."Everyone was relieved, once again confirming that the people from the Blackwater City team were seeking death.

Captain Blackwater muttered for a long while, unable to utter a word. He felt as if he had dug a hole and buried himself.

Yang Lan'er expressed her understanding with a generous look on her face: "Although you in Blackwater City are questioning the fairness of previous competitions, I still want to prove my innocence. So, where did I steal from you? Tell me?"

While continuing to observe a moment of silence for the Blackwater City team, everyone suddenly realized that if the Blackwater City team couldn't even enter the Misty Valley, where could they find fog grass?

"...You, the valley is covered with fog, how can I know where it is?" Captain Blackwater finally came up with a quick thought. This reason is indeed reasonable.

Yang Lan'er said "oh" and nodded in agreement. Then, in front of everyone's suspicious gaze, she asked several very realistic questions: "Very good, then how many fog grass did I steal from you? Are they big or small? How long are they? How old are they? By the way, did your team get ten fog grasses? Why are you squatting at the entrance of the valley?"

Captain Blackwater was a little confused by so many questions. Before he could think of a clear answer, Yang Lan'er spoke again: "Don't tell me that you got lost at the entrance of the valley and then took a break..."

As if he had been enlightened, Captain Blackwater's eyes lit up and he insisted, "We got lost at the entrance of the valley. When we saw it was getting dark, we wanted to rest and continue at daybreak."

Anyway, there is no specific route in the Misty Valley, so it is understandable to say this.

"Really? I heard that the fire can be used to check the time point. Why not let an experienced guard check it?" Yang Lan'er looked at Captain Blackwater jokingly when his face suddenly changed. He actually dared to follow her words. Aren't you afraid of stepping into a trap?

"Then, continue to talk about Wucao's situation. Don't say anything wrong, otherwise you will have no room to go back on your words!" Yang Lan'er said meaningfully and put just the right amount of pressure.

What he said just now was wrong. At this time, Captain Blackwater was sweating profusely. He opened his mouth several times but didn't dare to answer casually.

Psychological tactics are very useful when dealing with people who are habitual liars. Captain Blackwater has been led by Yang Lan'er from the very beginning. Does he really think she is so kind that she can provide reasonable excuses to the opponent?

"Hmph..." Qian Ke snorted coldly: "As a contestant of the dynasty, being so dishonest will result in a charge of slander. Think carefully about it."

There was no way. After Yang Lan'er asked this question, there was too much evidence, making the Blackwater City team look like complete fools.

"Prince, I..." Captain Blackwater was frightened and couldn't finish a sentence for a long time.

Although Blackwater City is a place of exile, it is still under the control of the dynasty. When they heard the verdict, they immediately became timid.

"What do you mean by your silence? Are you agreeing? Do you still think that I stole your money?" Yang Lan'er took advantage of the situation to pursue the opponent and not let this guy get away with it.
