Lourain's lips twitched, "So why are you saying so much for? What do the two of us have to do with you? Why do we need to talk to you?!"
Lourain felt so angry that his body was churning. Lionel's expression stiffened. It was obvious he never expected Lane's two fellow disciples to react like this. Why did they seem so opposed to him trying to join them?
Could it be because his appearance would threaten their position? Lionel thought about it and felt certain about his guess. The two of them must definitely be afraid that he would steal their thunder. That was why they seemed so hostile.
Thinking about that, Lionel scoffed. There was a glint of disdain in his eyes. He wondered what Lane was thinking to have two such problematic people as his followers. Anyone with half a brain would not act so frustrated and jealous in public.
Even if they wanted to go against anyone else, they still needed to show that they were magnanimous while in public. The two of them practically had their emotions written on their faces. It was easy to deal with people like that. Lionel took a deep breath.
A big smile was on his face as he said, "Lane definitely needs someone good at strategy by his side. I just want you two to recommend me to him. I'll definitely make Lane's life a lot easier in the future."
Everyone else had looks of realization on their faces when they heard all of that. It was no wonder that guy was so insistent on finding out who Lane was, but still stopped at the right time.
Fane might even praise them for it, but Lourain just felt incredibly annoyed at the thought of having to do it! Lionel had completely sabotaged the two of them. Recommending Lionel to Fane would be like giving candy to someone who had just slapped him in the face.
At that moment, Marth suddenly said in a low voice, "Have you forgotten Fane's personality? Fane's a lone wolf. Just from his temperament alone, it's easy to see that Fane doesn't like others making his decisions.
"Fane doesn't need a strategist at all. Most importantly, Fane's full of secrets. The less others know about his secrets, the better. If this person's next to Fane, then he probably won't take too long to figure out Fane's secrets. Then, it'll be horrible if he betrays Fane!"
