Durin's Diary

Chapter 899 Promise

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar long street before him, Lan En sighed.

She still remembered the months it took her to leave this land and travel to the Western Continent, battling the wind and waves in the sea and fighting against the inhuman sea creatures. She didn't know how much effort she had put into this journey.

But now her Dulin tells her that it doesn't require much effort; a long-distance teleportation array directly connects the Eternal Fortress and the Upper Capital.

The feeling of weightlessness, which takes less than a minute, will take you back to your hometown.

The young man that the ancestors had chosen for them had unknowingly become as powerful as a god, because he had accomplished a feat that had never been done before—a teleportation that took them directly across thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, from one civilization to another.

Xiang Shu chirped like a little bird beside her, which made Lan En look at her: "Lord Dulin asked me to teach you a lesson. You must have done something to anger him, right?"

At this point, her eyes suddenly turned into a bottomless, dark void: "To be honest, I can forgive you this once."

This is a psionic spell. As a powerful and terrifying high-ranking psionicist, Lan En only used a little of his abilities to make this silly girl tell him everything that happened today.

After listening, Lan En snorted and, as she withdrew from the mind control state, she also released Xiang Shu from her control.

She looked towards the granite embankment, where Dulin was sitting, gazing into the distance.

She smiled and waved to him.

So he smiled and waved to the other side of the embankment, then jumped off the embankment and walked over.

"This little girl still needs you to work on her," Du Lin said, opening his arms to hug Lan En.

“It is only right that I come. Such a wicked woman ultimately needs an even more wicked woman like me to come,” Lan En said.

She said this because she came here and heard the story of what happened after she left from her friend. It was said that someone was heartbroken for her... What a joke! How could she have never known that someone was pursuing her? How could someone treat her like a commodity and still have the nerve to talk about being heartbroken?

Was he heartbroken? Perhaps he was, but it was just a temporary pain from a failed investment.

Lan En had seen far too many romantic relationships in this world. How many of her peers looked at her with kind eyes, not strange eyes, like Mr. Du Lin did?

not a single one.

The girl in front of him, Xiang Shu, naively thought she could use her beauty to seduce Mr. Dulin. What a childish trick! If it weren't for Mr. Dulin's kindness, this girl who wanted to use someone else to do his dirty work would have been killed long ago.

“In my eyes, you are my good girl. As for Xiangshu, she doesn’t understand the dangers of the world. She wasted an opportunity, so I need you to teach her a lesson. Otherwise, what will happen if she becomes stupid and ruins herself?” Du Lin said, glancing back at the embankment.

Over there, Melinda, who had just turned over, was carrying a red bucket. She and Reed went down the embankment: "It's not hot, so we can't catch many crabs, but we did catch two strange little fish."

“It’s mudskipper, it’s quite delicious.” Lan En recognized the fish in the bucket at a glance. “Then let’s not eat it.” Li De said, glancing at Xiang Shu: “You asked her, right?”

“Yes.” Lan En nodded in agreement.

“I’m too powerful, and it’s a bit difficult for me to control my strength, so I’ll leave her to you to handle.” As she said this, as if she knew what Xiang Shu was thinking, she turned her head and said, “Do you see that big rock?”

She reached out her hand and grasped it lightly.

The sea breeze blew, scattering the stone that lay across the end of the road.

Reed then turned to look at Xiang Shu, who was now completely dumbfounded. She stared at Reed, her words stammering, "A psychic...can a psychic really do this?!"

"Of course it is possible. Lan En and I are both high-level psionicists. In my eyes, stone is nothing but clay and metal is nothing but rotten wood. Lan En received psionicist training later and his abilities are not as good as mine, but even so, in my opinion, it is still a kind of harm to you. But as long as you control your strength, this kind of harm is reversible. At most, it will only make you allergic to psionic power for a few days, and you might even see something you shouldn't see."

"How did you become so strong?!" The little girl's eyes widened.

“Mr. Dulin gave us a method to train ourselves, which we call a ‘method’ in the Changtang dialect. You can have it if you want, but you have to be like us and become a relative of Lord Dulin. After all, the cultivation secrets of the Elsh family are not for outsiders to enjoy.” Lan En said with a smile, “Lord Dulin has given you a chance to think. You can think about it carefully. Fate can be in your own hands.”

“What nonsense are you talking about? I’m not the kind of person who takes advantage of others in distress.” Du Lin shook his head and looked at Xiang Shu: “If you want to know, I can teach you. I can even teach the spiritual masters of Changtang. This land has suffered too much and made too many sacrifices. If my knowledge can reduce your suffering and sacrifices, I can teach it to you for free.”

Hearing Dulin's words, Lan En smiled.

Look, this is the person my ancestor chose for me. Although he is short and cute, like a little devil, and does not have the broad chest of his father, his kindness and generosity towards this land are unmatched by anyone his age.

Such knowledge would be a closely guarded secret in the hands of any family, and even if it were to be passed on, it would require others to pay a considerable price. However, Mr. Dulin was willing to unconditionally give this knowledge to all those in the world who needed it.

Simply because it can reduce some of the suffering and sacrifice on this land.

A man like that is worth following for a lifetime.

"Are you really willing to pass on this knowledge to those who supposedly need it?" Xiang Shu had never met such an extraordinary man before, and her voice was full of disbelief.

“Mr. Dulin wouldn’t lie. I can help you keep an eye on him, but I think my supervision would be superfluous. He’s brought out things far more precious than this knowledge, just to help the people of the Western Continent fight against evil. If you don’t believe me, you can come back to the Western Continent with us. You can witness everything I’ve said with your own eyes. You don’t need to worry about anything. Sister Lan’en has said so much. If you don’t believe me, how can you not believe her?” Melinda said with a smile.

So Xiangshu looked over here: "Sister Lan'en..."

"Since you want to change your destiny, why don't you come with us to the Western Lands and see the mountains, seas and civilizations on the other side of this land, and witness the right and wrong we are talking about."
