Lanling's gaze fell upon Du Yan's face, staring into his eyes, attempting to find deceit and conspiracy within them!
However, what he saw was only a sense of relief, Du Yan's sense of relief.
Lanling had previously said that if Du Yan wanted to achieve great things, he must first overcome the inner barriers of his own mind. And this barrier was precisely that Lanling, whom he had once looked down upon, was now standing high above, looming over his head.
Moreover, Lanling also judged that with Du Yan's intellect, it would be difficult to overcome such an obstacle.
However, if the external humiliation were to surpass the humiliation of bowing to Lanling, then perhaps the situation might change.
But, should Lanling spare him?
For him, killing Du Yan at this moment was very easy; just one sword strike would do.
Du Yan said, "The pig iron and refined steel Constantine smelted here are all stored in a secret cave; I can lead you there now."
