2103 I Have Something More Important to Say! As more of the forehead emerged from the quicksand, the leaders of the Black Gold tribe and the pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters let out gasps of astonishment. Luo Lan might be the First Princess of the Iron Hammer Federation, but she was not haughty. From a young age, she had been traveling around the tribes providing medical aid as a means of training. After more than a decade of training as a healing-type spirit qi professional, she had saved at least tens of thousands of the Iron Hammer Federation’s tribe members. Each day she worked, she only stopped when she was completely exhausted of spiritual power. Luo Lan’s actions made her a known face amongst the tribes. The head that had emerged from the sand was around 50 to 60 centimeters, and there was no way that all of the almost ten million tribe members who had been captured could see it. But those who could see it immediately recognized the head as belonging to Luo Lan. With the Source Sand’s current power and the exquisite composition of the sand granules, the patterns on the granules were also extremely clear. The six pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters who stood at the front of the group exchanged looks of shock. A sand carving of Luo Lan had appeared at the center of the sea of flowers at such a time. This was astonishing and even a little thrilling. But since it was Luo Lan, the six pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters felt relaxed, and a flame of hope sparked to life within them. However, this was just a statue of Luo Lan’s head and not actually her. The experts from the Black Gold tribe went on full alert. After all, there was still a terrifying lifeform hiding and watching from the shadows. As the sand continued to move, the appearance of the head was just the beginning. It was followed by a neck, and upper body until a 500-meter-tall statue rose into the sky. The statue of Luo Lan was depicted to be wearing a silk dress, with her head slightly hung and her hands held in Buddha’s Mudra. It was as though she was expressing pity for all the creatures of the world. With the 500-meter-tall statue rising into the sky, even the Black Iron tribe members at the periphery of the group could make out its image. Almost all, if not all those still alive in the sea of flowers, could see the statue. The voice of Luo Lan reverberated through the crowd, and some granules of sand fell from the statue’s hands. The radium boards had been combined with the falling granules, and Luo Lan, dressed lavishly and wearing the Iron Hammer Federation’s crown, appeared on the statue’s hands. She opened her eyes to see that she was up in the air and immediately realized why Lin Yuan had asked her if she was afraid of heights. If someone who was afraid of heights found themselves more than 500 meters in the air, they would immediately lose all strength in their legs, as well as their ability to speak. There were many high-class spirit qi professionals who were afraid of heights. There were numerous king-class experts who only levitated one or two meters off the ground despite being able to circulate their spirit qi to fly. In actuality, Luo Lan was slightly afraid of heights. When she looked back at the statue behind her, she immediately understood Lin Yuan’s intention. He wanted to turn her into the faith of the Iron Hammer Federation. This was not the time for her to be showing her weak side. It was now absolutely imperative that she ensured the survival of as many people as possible and efficiently distributed rations. Luo Lan knew that Lin Yuan had sent an expert to accompany her. This was for her safety and to carry out any orders she had to control the situation. Luo Lan hoped that she would not have to use this strength as it would mean that more of the Iron Wood Federation’s citizens’ lives would be lost. Luo Lan calmed herself down and took a deep breath before she called down with a steady voice, “I am Luo Lan. I’m sure all of you know me! My father was the king of the Iron Hammer Federation until he was killed by Luo Cai, who has conspired with a faction from the Great Lush Federation. Luo Cai has also been secretly trying to hunt me down and kill me!” Luo Lan circulated her spiritual power while she spoke. She was an A-rank spirit qi professional and could project her voice thousands of meters away by channeling her spiritual power. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺 As a result, at least 100,000 people around the statue heard what she said. Luo Lan’s words caused a stir among the crowd. The leaders of the Black Gold tribes and the pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters had only made guesses about the matter, but Luo Lan’s words shone a light on the current Iron Hammer Federation imperial court’s biggest secret. As a result, the new king now appeared to be an ingrate who committed regicide. He had even turned his back on the Iron Hammer Federation to collude with another federation. Given that Luo Lan had been groomed from young to take over the throne, she knew what the impact of saying such words to people who hated would have on Luo Cai. He not only did not have a claim to the throne, but even if he did, Luo Lan’s words would have shaken its legitimacy. As the experts gazed at Luo Lan, they saw that she was wearing the crown that represented the leadership of the Iron Hammer Federation. All of the Black Gold tribe leaders and pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters instantly believed what she said. This was partly due to Luo Lan’s image in the Iron Hammer Federation. The previous king of the Iron Hammer Federation had made it clear that he wanted Luo Lan to replace him. Furthermore, the crown of the Iron Hammer Federation could only be passed on to someone it had acknowledged with blood. The previous holder of the crown had to let his blood drip onto the crown to remove the imprint in order for it to be contracted by a new contractor. When the previous king died, the only person who had been around was Luo Cai. He had assumed the throne immediately after declaring that the previous king was dead. Luo Lan had not had any time to enter the imperial court to take the crown. This meant that the previous king had given Luo Lan the crown long ago. Luo Cai had fully earned the ire of the public. Many people had died as a result of his order, and he was carrying many sins. Although only 100,000 people heard what Luo Lan said, the contents of her speech quickly traveled to every corner of the crowd. The crowd was now completely riled up. Luo Lan was not only the First Princess of the Iron Hammer Federation but had also saved many tribes. Her appearance had pulled the fraying crowd together. The leaders of the Black Gold tribe and pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters planned on asking Luo Lan detailed questions about what was going on. This was when Luo Lan said sternly, “Now is not the time to talk about such things. I have something more important to say!”
