Before they left with Ling Long, Su Chen had already reached his limits, and by that time, it was all over, Su Chen might not even survive.
Moreover, after they left, Su Chen would still have to face the invincible Ancient Arm Ape beneath the Divine Power Realm alone?
Yet, even though she was almost certain that Su Chen was already dead, in this moment, she still wanted to give Ling Long a glimmer of hope.
"Su'er, you don't need to lie to me!" Sadly, did Ling Long believe her? Lan Su was too naive, as innocent as a blank sheet of paper—her lies were clumsy and unconvincing.
"Sister Ling Long, even if Brother Su has already left us, you still have me, and you have Sister Xia Xi, you can't..." Ling Long hugged Lan Su tightly: "I won't let you be reckless. I promise you, I will make sure the Lan Family won't force you to marry Xing Nie. If it comes to it, I'd even threaten my grandfather with my life—he loves me the most!"
"Mhm!" Ling Long responded with a sound.
