Han Jijyun chuckled coldly, “Not going to pretend anymore, Lingtian's most handsome and cool doctor?”

“Heh, the strategist who never wastes his words is actually such a chatterbox?” Li s.h.i.+yu reb.u.t.ted without any care for Han Jijyun's feelings.

After bantering to calm their nerves for a while, the bantering suddenly stopped and the entire hall returned to its initial silent state.

“I'm sorry, I was out of line.” After a few minutes of awkward and heavy silence, Han Jijyun finally spoke up.

“I was also nervous.” Li s.h.i.+yu let out a heavy breath of air, as though he was trying to push out the pressure in his mind.

“I finally understand where the source of my calmness is from. I didn't expect I would find out what kind of person I am here. Sigh, I really can't compare to Li Lanfeng.” Han Jijyun's crestfallen expression portrayed how sad he was. After chasing him for so long, Han Jijyun had only realized his true self now. In reality, he was just a useless person. In the end, he could only guard the hall that was furthest away from the main palace. He didn't have the strength nor the mentality to guard one of the three secondary halls that were nearest to the main palace.

Li s.h.i.+yu frowned. “What are you moping on about?”

“Perhaps I'm just an extra in this grand scene. Perhaps I was insignificant from the very beginning.” Sadness in Han Jijyun's eyes became even more prominent. “It would have been better if it was me who died and not Xie Yi. If Xie Yi was here, perhaps he would be much more of a help to Qi Long and the others, not like the useless and scared me.”

Han Jijyun seemed to have immersed himself in his own sad thoughts. The depressing aura he was giving off was becoming thicker and thicker.

“Han Jijyun, Han Jijyun…” Li s.h.i.+yu cried out angrily. However, no matter how loud his voice was, it couldn't reach Han Jijyun, who was immersed in his own thoughts.

Li s.h.i.+yu made a decision at that moment. He flicked his wrist and a miniature vial of tranquilizer appeared in his hand. Right as he was about to inject it into Han Jijyun, he was suddenly frozen in place.

“Oh, you shouldn't stop such a fun game. Be a good boy, okay?” A hoa.r.s.e voice rang beside Li s.h.i.+yu's ears. A gloved hand suddenly appeared in front of him and slowly took away the syringe in Li s.h.i.+yu's hand.

Li s.h.i.+yu tried his best to turn his head to see a man dressed like a clown, and that clown was happily tossing his syringe away.

“This is because of you,” Li s.h.i.+yu said coldly.

No matter how weak Han Jijyun's mentality was, after the many years Boss had polished him, the amount of pressure he could endure was definitely not something that should be underestimated. He wouldn't fall into a ditch of negative emotions so easily. Even if he did, he would easily be able to get himself out of that rut.

“Clever child.” The clown had a wide smile on his face.

“Lord Card!” Li s.h.i.+yu knew who he was when he first laid eyes on him. “The rumored demon who liked to play with the minds of his victims.”

“Looks like you know me very well.” Lord Card smiled deviously.

“Not very well, but since I came to the Lawless Lands, I should have basic knowledge of the 13 Lords,” said Li s.h.i.+yu calmly. Now that he knew it was Lord Card, no matter how much he worried for Han Jijyun, it would be completely useless so he could only stop worrying and focus completely on dealing with Lord Card.

Out of the 13 Lords, if they were to face the other lords, at most they would lose their lives and reincarnate into their next lives. Only Lord Card would make his victims live in agony and continue tormenting them after they had died.

“You're quite the interesting one. You actually don't have too many negative emotions,” Lord Card's curiosity was overflowing. His domain gave him the ability to control the negative emotions of humans. As long as it was a human, they would always have negative emotions in their mind. Once that person's flaws were grasped by him, he would go straight for their minds and drive them to live in eternal agony.
