I Became the Demon King of Lust

Huh?

I wasn't surprised that we would be receiving a new addition to the team since this kind of thing was common.

But I couldn't help being confused when I heard Bing Lan say that it was someone that I knew.

There weren't many people that I knew in Elementia, so it really helped me narrow it down.

And to join our group, it should be someone that was quite skilled.

It wasn't hard for me to guess who it was with these facts…

In fact, I already had an idea as to who it was.

Would it be Bing Xue?

If it was her, then it would be a great addition to our team since she would help round it out.

As this thought passed through my mind, I couldn't help revealing a bit of an expectant look in my eyes.

But when Bing Lan saw this look, she couldn't help frowning.

She looked at me with that frown on her face, not telling me who it was that was joining our group.

When I saw her like this, I couldn't help feeling a bit confused.

After all, the look on her face almost seemed like she was…a bit disappointed with me and even a bit angry with me.

Why would she be like that?

There was another long pause before she said, "Are you really that excited about having this person on your team." As she said this, she even narrowed her eyes to look at me as if she was gauging my reaction.

I didn't know why she was doing this, but I could feel a bad feeling.

It was as if there was something that wasn't supposed to happen that was about to happen.

So I forced myself to calm down and say in a calm voice, "I have no idea what you're talking about. I don't even know who it is yet."

Bing Lan just looked at me with the same narrowed eyes without saying anything.

I just looked right back at her without a single reaction on my face.

After a long silence, Bing Lan said, "Humph, say what you want then."

She took out a folder from the side and handed it to me before saying, "Take a look at your new teammate."

I was surprised to see her handing me a folder, but I still took it and opened it up to see what was inside.

When I saw the name that was in this file, I couldn't help being shocked.

It was definitely a name that I recognized, but I never expected to see this name here.

Long Shui Ling.

It turned out that the new teammate that Bing Lan had mentioned was Long Shui Ling.

When Bing Lan saw the shocked look on his face, she couldn't help feeling a bit better.

It seemed that he didn't know about this.

Then the rumours that she had heard…

She had been worrying for her little sister the entire time, but now it seemed that she had been worrying about nothing…

"No, I can't let my guard down." Bing Lan said to herself, "He could just be pretending or it could be something else."

After telling herself this, Bing Lan's eyes turned sharp once more as she looked at him.

I looked at the file a few times, making sure that it was the Long Shui Ling that I knew.

After reading it, I knew that it was indeed her.

After all, there was no mistaking her power and her Irregular License that was attached to the file.

I looked at it a bit longer before looking up at Bing Lan and asking, "When did she join our guild?"

Bing Lan gave a snort before saying, "Is that all you have to say?"

I couldn't help feeling a chill run down my spine when I heard this.

As I had feared…she had already heard the rumours…

But I forced myself to stay calm as I asked, "Isn't she from the Long Family. Why would she need to join our guild?"

Bing Lan looked at me with narrowed eyes once more, but after a bit of silence, she said, "She's the one that asked to join us. Plus, the Long Family was endorsing her, so we had no choice but to accept her. You don't know this, but we have received quite a bit of financial aid from the Long Group."

I couldn't help revealing a faint smile as I said, "So you were bribed?"

Bing Lan's lips twitched when she heard this before she said, "I'm still the guild master, you know? I should still be respected, don't you know that?"

I couldn't help revealing an awkward smile when I heard this, but I didn't say anything.

In the end, Bing Lan gave a snort and said, "Go and meet with your team. She heard that you were coming today, so she's already waiting in the building. I've also had someone call the rest of your group so you can all meet."

I couldn't help being surprised by how quickly Bing Lan took action.

But at the same time, I wasn't looking forward to meeting Long Shui Ling.

I had planned on keeping her separate from Elementia so that I could slowly work on corrupting both sides…

But things didn't go as you wanted in life…

So I had no choice but to handle this matter as it was.

I stood up and was about to leave, but before I could, I heard Bing Lan's voice coming from behind me.

"If you do anything to let Xin'er down, I'll cut that part of you off."

This was a cold voice that rang out from behind me.

I turned around with a shocked look and I saw that she wasn't even looking at me anymore.

She had turned her chair around and was looking out the window behind her.

But there was no mistaking what I had heard…so I just simply said…

"I won't ever do anything to hurt her."

With that, I turned to leave her office.

"You better not." Bing Lan said to herself as I left.
