It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future (WN)

Ling Lan took a cup of black tea and had a sip of it. She placed it on the coffee table beside her before asking, "What do you want to talk about?"

Ling Lan never liked beating around the bush so she decided to clarify the matters between them at once.

Mu Chaoran took a deep breath. "You're Pei Shaoyun, right?" It was a question but the tone he used when asking left no room for doubt.

Ling Lan looked at him in the eyes. "You already know the answer."

"Why did you choose to die?" Mu Shaoyu couldn't understand Ling Lan's actions. Wasn't it better to stay alive and bid farewell to them? That way, they wouldn't think of him all the time until he became a devil in their hearts.

"It's more convenient," Ling Lan replied.

This was the truth. If she didn't kill Pei Shaoyun, she would have to go through more trouble to wipe this character off the face of the planet. The other option was to reveal her real identity just like Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran. However, Ling Lan wanted to complete the mission perfectly so death was the best option. Of course, she was lucky in the situation. Out of all the people in the plaza, the enemy kidnapped her.

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran didn't know what to say. Ling Lan just decided to choose the easier path to disappear. Had they been thinking too much all these while?

"I just want to know whether our friendship was real or fake." Mu Chaoran gathered his thoughts and asked with hope in his ices.

Ling Lan smiled slightly. She asked him back, "What do you think? Was it real or fake?"

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran exchanged glances with each other. Then, Mu Chaoran turned and looked at Ling Lan firmly. "It's real."

"Our identities were fake but the feeling towards our Little Brother Shaoyun is real. We even thought of getting him into the Flying Dragon Special Forces after he entered the military academy so that we can protect him forever. That way, he can have a happy life."

"We don't want his smile to disappear. As long as we have the ability to, we want to protect him forever. Little Brother Shaoyun can just live happily without any worry." Mu Chaoran felt as though he was stabbed by a knife. His heart hurt.

"Pei Shaoyun was my disguise. His personality and image is fake. None of it is real." Ling Lan's words hurt the two of them even further. Mu Chaoran was in agony. His favourite Little Brother Shaoyun never existed.

Mu Chaoran was just sad that his beloved younger brother never existed. On the other hand, Tang Ningyu was fuming.

"Is it fun to fool us?" Tang Ningyu stood up angrily and questioned Ling lan.

Ling Lan raised her eyebrows. "Why are you so angry?"

"Since you didn't treat us sincerely, why did you pretend to be nice towards us?" Tang Ningyu's eyes were bloodshot.

Ling Lan scoffed. "Were you sincere towards Pei Shaoyun from the beginning? Let's change our perspective. If Pei Shaoyun really existed, how would he feel when he knows that his two beloved brothers were fooling him? What will he do when he knows the truth?"

Mu Chaoran was speechless. Tang Ningyu's anger dissipated a little.

"Do you think he would be grateful if you used your status to pull him in the Flying Dragon Special Forces? Will he live happily ever after with you? Stop daydreaming! From the moment we were in our disguises, everything was a lie. There's no such thing as sincere feelings. Even if there is, it wouldn't last long."

"You're lucky that you met me as no one else will tolerate you with how you are questioning me." Ling Lan's gaze turned sharp. A strong force of presence slowly leaked out from her body. Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran felt cold sweat on their back.

They then heard a cold voice speaking forcefully, "Is it fun to fool me?"

This question pierced through their hearts. Mu Chaoran's anguish and Tang Ningyu's anger dissipated instantly.

"Dreams are beautiful. However, it's time to wake up." Ling Lan's stern voice woke them up with a shock.

By questioning Ling Lan directly, they finally overcame the devil in their hearts, so the force of presence around them suddenly exploded. Ling Lan raised her eyebrows in surprise and activated her domain. The entire private room immediately turned cold. Xie Yi and Luo Lang couldn't help but shiver.

Ling Lan's ice domain concept stopped Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran's domain from exploding out, saving the furniture and private room from destruction.

"F**k, their force of presence is really powerful. They've actually advanced. They must have reached the titled domain realm now," Luo Lang exclaimed in surprise.

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran were only a few years older than them. They were from the same generation. The few of them thought that under the guidance of Boss, they had already surpassed everyone from the same generation as them. However, that didn't seem to be the case now as the two people in front of them were faster than them.

What about Boss? Was Ling Lan even a human? The people from Lingtian knew that there was no point in comparing with Boss.

"Their advancement means that you are not training hard enough." Ling Lan spoke as she controlled her domain.

She touched her chin and muttered, "Maybe we should activate the ultimate level month training?"

"No way! No, please! Boss!" Luo Lang, Xie Yi, Li Yingjie, and even Gu Dongyang shouted in unison.

The ultimate level day training was enough to make feel like bashing their skulls against the wall to end their life. If Boss really started the ultimate level month training… they could imagine what kind of hell they would have to go through. There was no question about it. They would definitely die.

They were not protesting the training because they were lazy. It was because they had actually experienced the ultimate level month training before. Besides Boss, only Qi Long managed to remain until the end. However, he still had to lie in Li Shiyu's medical department for three whole months before he could stand up again. Most of the participants couldn't even reach the halfway point. Even then, they had to lie down for more than a month before recovering. From then onwards, the ultimate level month training was seen as the doors of hell. Anyone who wanted to die could try it.

This was why everyone jumped in fright when they heard what Ling Lan said.

"You don't want the ultimate level month training? Well, show me you can do without it. One year later…" Ling Lan smiled as she looked at her companions.

Her companions could almost see layers of devil wings behind Ling Lan's back. "Don't blame me for being merciless if you haven't advanced."
