The King of Special Warfare

Chapter 145 Obliteration Operations

“Get in the car. I can help you.”

Li Tianlan instinctively froze.

The woman in the back seat of the Benz looked about 26 or 27 years old. Her face was lovely and tender, and there was a mature, intellectual dignity about her. The streets of Ninghu were already a mess. Countless elites from the Special Warfare System of East Island were coming from different directions, and some were even armed. Nevertheless, the woman in the car was always calm and collected, looking at Li Tianlan with a sincere look in her eyes.

The woman’s voice was soft and melodious. However, the sweet Japanese became mechanical in Li Tianlan’s ears when it was translated into Chinese.

She was an East Islander.

This was the first thought that came to Li Tianlan’s mind.

On the chaotic street, the two people, one inside and the other outside the car, glanced at each other. In the next second, without any hesitation, Li Tianlan pulled open the door and sat in the car.

The black Benz gave a roar, and the force of the sudden acceleration pressed Li Tianlan’s body firmly against the seat behind him. The whole car seemed to fly in a flash. The chassis of the vehicle seemed to be lowered, and outside the windows, the scenery on both sides of the car constantly moved back and became blurred. Vaguely, looking through the dashboard, Li Tianlan saw that the speed of the Benz had already exceeded 150 mph in just a few seconds.

As a bumpkin who didn’t know anything about cars dozens of days ago, Li Tianlan could not imagine how violently the car had been modified to achieve the performance that was now more exaggerated than most supercars.

The Benz swerved through the traffic flow on the street of Ninghu. The vehicle was in good condition, and the driver was obviously an old hand. Li Tianlan could only feel the vehicle moving from side to side on the street with its huge body moving through the gaps in the traffic flow in a very deft way. In just a few minutes, Li Tianlan was getting further and further away from the location where he had just been besieged.

The scene outside the window was still going backwards, and Li Tianlan took a look at the dashboard ahead.

302 mph.

Damn, the car was almost flying.

The scene on the street gradually changed from noisy to quiet. The Benz continued to move down the neat road.

The woman hadn’t spoken since Li Tianlan got in the car. She finally turned her head and smiled at Li Tianlan, saying, “Thank you for your trust, Mr. Li. You’ve made the right choice.”

Li Tianlan glanced at the woman and said nothing.

Trust?

That was complete bullshit.

The reason he dared to get into the car was that he could be sure that if the worst came to the worst, he was able to escape. The car sped along the way, but neither the driver nor the woman beside him noticed that as the car sped up, outside the car, there were always glistening and uniform splashes that followed the Benz.

Since Li Tianlan entered the Ice-condensing Realm, the splashes became his shadow. As long as there was the slightest danger, the splashes would turn into a shadow and then swap positions with Li Tianlan. The whole process didn’t even take a second.

If Li Tianlan had not had great confidence for his own safety, even if he needed to force his way out through massacre, he would not have easily believed the woman beside him who he had never met.

“Let me introduce myself. My name is Xitian Mingzi. Mr. Li can call me Mingzi.”

The woman’s smile was gentle and lovely, and she held out a small hand to Li Tianlan.

“I don’t think I need to introduce myself.”

Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows slightly and shook Xitian Mingzi’s hand. She called him Mr. Li as soon as she spoke, and it seemed pointless for him to introduce himself.

“Of course.”

The look in Xitian Mingzi’s eyes was taking, and there were palpable enthusiasm and adoration in them. The intriguing look in her eyes was clearly false, but it had the magic to make people believe it. “Li Tianlan, who is from Sigh City, is the third young Heavenly Son in Zhongzhou State. Those who should know your current identity in the entire East Island almost have known that.”

Li Tianlan’s heart sank abruptly, but there was no sign of alarm on his face. He had to hold his temper at this critical time. He looked at Xitian Mingzi calmly and said with a smile, “You really acted fast enough.”

“It’s not that hard.”

Xitian Mingzi said indifferently, “This is, after all, East Island. I can only say that we did not expect Zhongzhou State to make such a big move. If I’m not wrong, you three Heavenly Sons are just part of the participants. A great number of elites from Zhongzhou State should have sneaked into East Island, right?”

“In this case, the chaos of Zhongzhou State that the Dark World cares about—the Master of Samsara Palace’s challenging the God of War of Zhongzhou State, is just a hoax, right?”

Li Tianlan was impassive and silent. Not to mention that he didn’t know much about such things, even if he did, he couldn’t say anything.

“Mr. Li...”

Xitian Mingzi frowned slightly, but this action made her look more effeminate and enchanting. “This is an important issue for Xitian Clan, so please tell me the truth.”

She sat in the car and bent deeply, her voice soft and respectful. “Please. In return, I will tell you something very important. Believe me, the news is very important to you.”

“Xitian Clan?”

Hearing the family name again, Li Tianlan felt that it was more and more familiar to him. He frowned thoughtfully.

“My father is Xitian Yingji.”

Xitian Mingzi said softly.

Xitian Yingji!

Li Tianlan felt that he was suddenly enlightened.

He did know the family and the name before. Before the hunt began, this was one of the names that Han Shixun highlighted. And the address “Xitian Clan” appeared with “Xitian Financial Group” in Han Shixun’s introduction.

Xitian Financial Group was one of the youngest consortiums in East Island and also the largest ATM of Night Spirit in East Island. With the fall of Night Spirit, the logistics department of the Divine Wind Force and the Ministry of Finance of East Island had sent officials to Xitian Financial Group, and they were negotiating with Xitian Yingji. That was all the intelligence that Li Tianlan had.

Li Tianlan’s eyes twinkled.

If Xitian Mingzi’s identity was true, then there was no doubt that the youngest world-class consortium in East Island already became a little restless after the fall of Night Spirit. At the very least, people in this consortium were unwilling to accept the fact that the consortium was dominated by the Divine Wind Force and the Ministry of Finance.

That was why Xitian Mingzi contacted him.

“Is the situation in Zhongzhou State so important to Xitian Clan?”

Li Tianlan continued with a smile, “What does the falsity and truth of that battle have to do with you?”

Xitian Mingzi nibbled at her pink and delicate lower lip. She had no initiative at all when she asked someone else for help. She could only say obediently, “If the Master of Samsara Palace is safe and sound after this battle, Xitian Financial Group is willing to provide economic support for Samsara.”

Li Tianlan suddenly turned his head and looked at Xitian Mingzi, his eyes burning.

Xitian Mingzi looked at him too, with a determined look.

Xitian Financial Group provided economic support for Samsara...

What did this mean?

“Treason?”

Li Tianlan looked at the woman beside him for a minute. He then raised his eyebrows slightly and spoke.

“In fact, my father had been applying for Swiss citizenship long before the fall of Night Spirit. We did that for leaving Night Spirit, not betraying our country. For years, Night Spirit has tried to break away from the East Island government. The act of His Highness Tian Xin relocating the headquarters to Bili State is a case in point. Although Night Spirit and East Island seem harmonious, their fights in the dark are very cruel.”

Xitian Mingzi whispered.

Li Tianlan’s eyes had narrowed tightly. Vaguely, he seemed to have grasped some of the core clues of the plan of Zhongzhou State. But the light flashed through his mind and was gone then, becoming untraceable.

“Go ahead.”

He said quietly, leaning back against his seat.

“After the fall of Night Spirit, from the perspective of the cabinet, the first thing they want to get is Xitian Financial Group. Negotiations between the government and my family are continuing. If nothing else happens, the government would be the first shareholder of Xitian Financial Group, buying almost 50% of the share of the consortium at a very low price. Everything Xitian Clan owns will shrink many times then. My father has been serving Night Spirit in recent years. And in the secret fights between Night Spirit and East Island over the years, he offended a lot of people. Once the control of Xitian Financial Group falls into the hands of the government, the government will certainly be willing to see other forces hit Xitian Financial Group when it’s down. When the time comes, we will be doomed.”

Xitian Mingzi added softly, “So we are willing to choose Samsara. Samsara Palace is a force in the Dark World that has only emerged recently, but its Palace Master is really a super master and a boss who deserves our best service. If the fight between the Palace Master and the God of War of Zhongzhou State is false, then the plot of Samsara and Zhongzhou State to seek East Island is true. In other words, Samsara is also one of the superpowers in the Dark World that cares East Island the least. The possibility that such a force is willing to accept Xitian Financial Group is the greatest.”

Li Tianlan became silent.

After a long while, he looked out of the window and said calmly, “You made the right choice.”

He couldn’t trust Xitian Mingzi completely now, but it was okay to give her signals that were irrelevant to the general situation.

Xitian Mingzi’s eyes sparkled. She grasped the information contained in Li Tianlan’s words keenly. So she bowed deeply again and said earnestly, “Thank you, Mr. Li.”

She paused for a short while and spoke again. “We know that you are very close to Boss Qin of Samsara. If possible, I hope you can help Xitian Financial Group to achieve cooperation with Samsara. Please.”

Li Tianlan didn’t air his opinions. He just chuckled and said, “Miss Mingzi, I thought you said you’d tell me something that’s important to me...”

“Yes.”

Xitian Mingzi became serious instinctively. She took a deep breath and lowered her voice. “Tianlan, you have to be careful what you’ll do next. At present, the members of the Divine Wind Force have all gone down the holy mountain to track down all the intruders from Zhongzhou State in East Island. You, Wang Shengxiao, and Gu Hanshan are their most important targets. Your assassination targets are too obvious. After combining some of the deceased, some people have concluded that Zhongzhou State wants to attack everything Night Spirit left in East Island. Unfortunately, the Divine Wind Force have already made specific arrangements for these situations.”

She took a deep breath and her ample bosom rippled slightly. “Shinichi Miyamoto, the only Invincible Realm expert and Supreme Ninja in East Island currently even suggested that the Mikado and the prime minister directly wake up the Kusanagi Force, but his suggestion was turned down. Nevertheless, I have received a truly reliable message that His Highness Shinichi Miyamoto is very likely to act in person this time to carry out the obliteration operations. All the three young Heavenly Sons from Zhongzhou State are on his obliteration list. And you... If the information is correct, you should rank first on His Highness Miyamoto’s list!”

“An Invincible Realm expert personally executes the obliteration operations?”

Li Tianlan tensed his body subconsciously and his expression was solemn.

“Tianlan, if I guess correctly, you would attack Sensō-ji after arriving at Ninghu, right?”

With a slight sigh, Xitian Mingzi continued, “I don’t know if it was because of the incomplete intelligence infiltration or something else in your country, I just want to say that if you were to act alone in Sensō-ji, you would certainly die. Do you have a list in hand? If the person who gave you this list had known a little about Sensō-ji, he would not have asked you to carry out this operation.”

She paused, keeping her composure. “Evidently, that person has no intention of seeing you back alive.”

Li Tianlan smiled, but he unconsciously clenched his hands.

The person who gave him the hunting list...

Ye Fengcheng.

He was a right-hand man of the Southeast Group!

“Is there anything special about Sensō-ji?”

Li Tianlan asked.

Xitian Mingzi gave him a deep look and said leisurely, “Do you know about the Kusanagi Force?”
