"I lost!"
Duan Lang, dressed in black, had a gloomy face but a calm tone, "There is a difference of two ranks between us, and even after using all my secret skills, I still failed to defeat the enemy in one move. If this is considered a draw, then Duan is a little too shameless."
"I can't afford to lose face."
He stretched out his hand and the dark golden long sword fell into his hand. Duanlang held the long sword horizontally and handed it to Tianyang: "It's yours!"
Since Duan Lang admitted defeat himself, Tian Yang certainly would not refuse and took the sword.
Duan Lang said with his hands behind his back: "This sword is called 'Golden Wind'. It has never been defeated in my hands. I hope you will not tarnish its reputation. Tomorrow I will send someone to find you and reset the neural connection of Golden Wind for you. That's it."
After saying that, he strode towards the door without even looking at anyone else.
Several servants hurriedly followed.
Gao Yue's face changed drastically. He wanted to follow, but he was worried about the Yun family party. When he came to his senses, Duan Lang had already walked out of the door and left.
Gao Yue's face was as ugly as it could be at this moment.
The reason why Duan Lang caused trouble for Tian Yang was actually because he fanned the flames.
As a member of the Upper Five Sect, he naturally knew that Xiao Niao was Yun Que. So when Gao Yue saw Xiao Niao and Tian Yang being so intimate in the hall, he was so surprised.
When he saw Duan Lang afterwards, he just mentioned what he saw in the hall. He said it lightly, but Duan Lang came to Qingtian Castle just for Yun Que. Now he heard that his fiancée was chatting and laughing with another man, how could he bear it.
What happened next was just as Gao Yue had expected. Duan Lang intervened and attacked Tian Yang.
But the result was beyond his expectation. Tianyang was not driven away, but Duanlang ran away by himself
Thinking further, if Duan Lang later recalled what happened today and remembered that today's shame was caused by him, wouldn't his impression of himself and the Gao family be greatly reduced
Suddenly, Gao Yue felt a little regretful. Compared with his own future and family, the grudge between him and Tian Yang was really insignificant.
I really shouldn't have planted the seeds of discord with the Duan family for such a small matter!
On the other side, Tianyang had already hung the long sword on his waist without any hesitation. This golden sword had a simple shape and concise but elegant patterns, and it had the style of a famous weapon.
And it needs to reset the neural connection. Obviously, this is a raw weapon. Since the third young master of the Duan family attaches so much importance to it, its power should not be less than that of the Predator.
It's a good opportunity for the boy to upgrade his weapon.
The fragrant wind was surging, Tianyang's eyes moved, and he saw the bird.
Xiaoniao seemed to be hesitant to speak, and it was obvious that he didn't know how to explain the concealment of his identity.
Tian Yang, on the other hand, was very generous and said with a smile, "Now, should I call you Skylark, or continue to call you Little Bird?"
The little bird's beautiful eyes sparkled: "Don't you blame me?"
Tian Yang said calmly: "No matter who you are, to me, you are my friend."
The bird had a little smile on its face: "Then you should call me bird. I would rather be a bird flying to the sun than a canary in a cage..."
Tianyang hummed. At this time, Yunze came over and said, "Tianyang, you are here. Why are you outside the hall? Hey, Xiao... Xiaoniao, you are here too. I seem to have missed something. Why are there so many people outside?"
Don't wait for the day
Yang answered, and the fourth young master of the Yun family had already hurriedly pulled the boy's arm: "Never mind, hurry up and follow me, the second uncle is looking for you."
Following Yunze, the boy looked back at the bird. The girl smiled with her eyes curved and waved to him.
Tianyang sighed softly in his heart.
He was not extremely smart, but he was definitely not stupid. Knowing that the little bird was Yun Que tonight, Tian Yang had already vaguely guessed that the Yun family might have known that he had awakened a new class.
This would explain the "chance encounter" between Xiao Niao and him at the Yunxiang base. If this was the case, the Bai family might have known about it, which was why Bai Yinglan behaved so abnormally during the last mission.
If it weren't for this reason, Tianyang couldn't find a better reason to explain why the two eldest daughters of the Yun family and the Bai family would be so "fond" of him.
A new class is enough to shake the world, so it is naturally worth the "investment" of big families like the Yun family and the Bai family. And the fact that the Yun family is still approaching Xiaoniao even though they already have an engagement with the Duan family is an obvious signal.
It is possible that the Yun family would break off the engagement with the Duan family in order to win over a new class of Ascendant, Duan Lang! Otherwise, why would no one from the Yun family come forward when Duan Lang left in anger
Given the importance of the Duan family, Tianyang didn't believe that the Yun family didn't know about this.
Judging from the bird's words "bird in a cage" just now, perhaps the marriage with the Duan family and the approach to herself were not her own will.
It was because he had figured out these things that Tianyang did not turn against Xiaoniao. Firstly, he was not strong enough yet, and for a behemoth like the Yun and Bai families, it was better to be friends than enemies; secondly, as he said, he still considered Xiaoniao a friend.
But because of what happened tonight, I will definitely have to distance myself from this friend.
When he returned to the hall, he met Yun Yuan, who was very low-key and introduced Tian Yang to some "big shots" almost without leaving any trace.
Among these people, there are important people from other families, as well as real dignitaries in the fortress. Of course, after just one encounter, these people may not take Tianyang seriously. But in the future, when the young man climbs one peak after another and appears in their eyes at a high enough level, they will remember him and approach Tianyang for their own purposes.
Furthermore, this was also a preparation made by Yun Yuan to absorb Tian Yang.
In any case, through the Yun family's cocktail party tonight, Tianyang finally touched the upper circle of the fortress, even though his current position was just an extremely marginal area.
But the impact on him is significant. It's just that the young man at this moment has not yet realized this.
The next day, Tianyang had just finished breakfast when the communicator rang. Han Shu sent a short message: Gather at the team barracks!
Something seems to be happening!
The boy quickly packed up his things, not forgetting to put Jin Feng into the storage box. Then he took the long box, put on the Night Walker uniform, and left the apartment.
Arriving at the Night Walker headquarters, Tian Yang discovered that there seemed to be a lot more people entering and leaving the headquarters today. Moreover, everyone was walking in a hurry and looked nervous. Several Falcon chariots drove out directly from the building's garage. Judging from the direction they left, they were not heading to the transfer platform where the Clave Gate was located, but heading out of the city.
Tianyang took the elevator to the team dormitory. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jiyu and Cangdu had already arrived.
"Good morning." The boy greeted and asked, "Did you receive the text message too?"
Jiyu nodded: "Maybe there is
Mission completed."
Cang Du crossed his arms over his chest and said, "You may not know this yet, but our strategic plan for Black Star Fort is going very smoothly. We have already taken over 50% of the border areas of Black Star Fort. If we work harder, we can complete the border blockade."
"So it's not surprising that there are more missions."
Tianyang sat down at his seat: "No wonder, I just saw several chariots leaving the city outside the building, they must be going on a mission."
At this time, footsteps sounded outside the team house door, and Han Shu pushed the door open and walked in. Before the captain could stand firmly, he was bumped by someone from behind, and his body swayed.
However, Han Shu was a fortress-class warrior with a famously tough physique, so he was not knocked down. Instead, a light cry was heard outside the door, followed by the sound of someone falling to the ground.
Han Shu scratched his hair, turned around cursing, and saw Kun Lan getting up from the ground.
The blue-haired boy patted his soiled uniform and complained, "Captain, please don't stand at the gate. It's easy to bump into people."
Han Shu pushed him in and said, "You bastard, why don't you say that you were careless when you walked? You were so impatient and you might step on a trap on the battlefield and lose your life without knowing what happened."
Kunlan jumped up and said, "Can you blame me for this? How do I know that you, Captain, have a hobby of blocking the door? When it comes to the battlefield, my intuition is sharp. Someone said a long time ago that my intuition is as sharp as that of a wild animal! So, I won't step on a trap and die."
Han Shu sat down on his chair: "You have a sharp intuition, right? Then guess what I'm going to do next?"
Kun Lan crossed his legs on the table and said, "How should I know? I only know that you won't praise me anyway."
Han Shu snorted: "You are known for being self-aware."
He looked at Tianyang again: "Four Eyes asked me to tell you that you did a great job in recovering the data card last time. We got a lot of evidence from that data card. Currently, the forbidden experiment conducted in Black Star Castle has been reported to the Golden Court."
"The Council was very shocked because this kind of thing hasn't happened in two hundred years. I heard that they will send someone to investigate this matter. Anyway, the data card you recovered has increased our advantage in the Fortress War."
"Besides, because of this, our team ranking in the battle list has jumped up several places."
Kun Lan said coldly, "In that case, Captain, you should also praise Baimao. Thanks to him, you have gained some honor in front of the higher-ups."
Han Shugan coughed a few times and said, "Why are you being so nosy? Besides, we have such a good understanding between us that there is no need to talk about many things."
Captain, I don't mind you saying it...
Han Shu said loudly again: "Okay, let's get back to the topic. I'm sure you have guessed why I called you here this time. Yes, we have a new mission. Siyan learned from the military that Black Star Castle has a Divine Evil Research Institute in the wilderness. Not long ago, a large number of refugees were sent to the institute, which is likely related to the Divine Evil Experiment."
"So the military has issued an order for us to cooperate with Night Walkers and Storm to destroy this research institute in one fell swoop. The specific information will be sent to your personal communicators later. I want to emphasize here that the departure time is tomorrow morning, so don't be late."
"If anyone dares to be late tomorrow, I'll skin him alive!"
After saying that, Han Shu looked at Kun Lan meaningfully.
