Chapter 1133 - 509: Shameless Lanling! Acting_2
In his view, even if he couldn’t marry Miss Ninian, Du Yan would still be an obedient loyal dog—not like Suo Mo. Letting him take charge of the Foreign Tribe Army best serves Konstantin’s interests.
Meanwhile, Lanling had thoroughly distanced himself from the Foreign Tribe Army, leaving Konstantin as his sole pillar of support.
Konstantin continued, "Of course, you must publicly announce your departure from the Foreign Tribe Army and sever all ties with Suo Mo. Because we are preparing to conquer an expanse of land stretching a thousand miles. I don’t want my son-in-law to be the subject of endless gossip about not being a Rakshasa Tribesperson, being a worthless foreigner, or part of the Near-Human Tribe, and so on."
At this moment, Lanling could discern Konstantin’s plans even with his eyes closed.
He wanted Lanling to sever his relationship with Suo Mo, sever his connection with the Foreign Tribe Army—and publicly announce it.
By doing so, he cuts off all possible retreat for Lanling. The entire Foreign Tribe Army would despise and scorn Lanling for his ingratitude and betrayal.
This would force Lanling to devote himself entirely to serving Konstantin.
Nominally, Konstantin said he would let Lanling command an elite unit from the tribe.
Clearly, this unit existed—Lanling might have command over a force of two thousand to three thousand troops.
