Chapter 386 Giant and Dog
It was high summer in August.
As early as five o’clock in the morning, Youzhou had been already dimly lit.
Huating’s carnival continued.
Dongcheng Wudi and Li Tianlan had rushed from Huating to Youzhou.
The high-level meeting was at half past six in the morning.
It was almost two hours left.
At that time, Li Huacheng, the President of Zhongzhou State who had visited Star State, was probably able to return to Youzhou.
Some members of the Decision Making Committee outside Youzhou could also reach the venue.
The black Mercedes-Benz was slowly driving on Chang’an Street. In the glimmer of morning light, Li Tianlan sat behind the Mercedes-Benz and looked at his mobile phone in his hand quietly.
On the screen of the mobile phone was a picture of Qin Weibai snuggling with him together at the Sky Academy three years ago.
The screen was on.
There were no phone calls or messages.
Li Tianlan stared at the phone and became more silent.
“Still no news?”
Dongcheng Wudi patted Li Tianlan’s shoulder and said in a mild voice, “Don’t worry too much. It happened so abruptly. Many things have to be dealt with. Isn’t the Lin Clan’s patron saint with Boss Qin? Nothing will happen.”
Li Tianlan nodded silently and called Qin Weibai again.
There was a cold English sound on the phone.
If it was translated into Chinese, it probably meant that the call could not be put through.
Qin Weibai’s phone could not be connected.
Lin Fengting and Flaming Fire’s phones also could not be connected.
Li Tianlan’s eyebrows were jumping gently. He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
The accidents in Eastern Europe continued to spread all over the world.
The capital of Eyme had now become the focus of the world. Numerous messages had spread to the world, true or false, making everything chaotic.
The garrison of Zhongzhou State in Eyme had barely rested and reorganized. At this time, it was determined that nearly 1,000 garrison soldiers had died, nearly 2,000 soldiers had been wounded, and hundreds of them had disappeared.
The largest batch of elites of Samsara Palace hidden in Snow Country was almost completely annihilated. The first batch of elites from the Dark Knights, which had a good relationship with Samsara Palace, arrived in Eastern Europen and suffered a great loss.
The Jiang family of South America and Knights Templars were also damaged. But their two masters of the Invincible Realm were in battle. So their losses were negligible compared to those of Samsara Palace and the Dark Knights.
What Li Tianlan wanted to know now was what happened to Qin Weibai, who was also in Snow Country.
He knew Qin Weibai was in Snow Country.
But he was not certain whether Qin Weibai was with that batch of elites of Samsara Palace.
His mind was a mess.
Li Tianlan shook his head fiercely, pursed his lips, and looked out the window.
The morning sun of Youzhou rose up.
Under the pale golden sun, a calm and indifferent but extremely dangerous face showed up.
“If you care, you’re in a mess.”
Dongcheng Wudi shook his head. “Even Zhongzhou State’s high-level officials have more confidence in Boss Qin than you do. Chaos and Jiang Qiansong are indeed in the Invincible Realm. But the two of them are no match for Lin Fengting. What are you worried about?”
“I’m not worried about Lin Fengting,” Li Tianlan calmly said.
He had seen Lin Fengting’s sword. That strength was still inestimable even for the current him. So Lin Fengting would certainly be fine, but his strength did not mean Qin Weibai’s strength. In case of his negligence...
“There is no news from Boss Qin. That is good news. Zhongzhou State has more than just garrisons in Eyme. Our strength over there is still good. We did not get information about Boss Qin. It probably indicates that Boss Qin is not in Eyme at all. I think this is why you are invited to this high-level meeting,” Dongcheng Wudi said.
“The reason?”
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows.
He really did not understand why he was invited to this high-level meeting.
“Because of your relationship with Samsara Palace.”
Dongcheng Wudi slowly said, “Wang Tianzong destroyed the headquarters of Samsara Palace with one sword. Palace Master was dead. Samsara Palace lost its leader and suffered a great loss. But the basic framework of Samsara Palace is still there. There are some of the resources they occupy abroad, including rich connections, special channels, and especially the intelligence system. Samsara Palace’s intelligence system is simply unprecedented. In a short period, it’s difficult for them to completely disappear with the fall of the Master of Samsara Palace.”
Dongcheng Wudi looked into Li Tianlan’s eyes. “What’s more, everyone knows the particularity of Samsara Palace, and the Palace Master has 100% trust in Qin Weibai. When the will of the Palace Master remains silent, Qin Weibai’s will is the will of Samsara Palace. And Qin Weibai is your woman.”
“So?”
Li Tianlan was expressionless. He had understood something.
“So the fall of the Master of Samsara Palace has a great impact on Samsara Palace, but it can be said that it doesn’t have a considerable influence. Because too many things are manipulated by Qin Weibai. At present, if any superpower has annexed the current Samsara Palace, it may cause their strength and influence to expand extremely. Eastern Europe today means interests and opportunities for the Dark World. The right to speak in the Dark World of Eastern Europe, the incomplete Polar Ground Alliance and Samsara Palace, the advancing and retreating of countless giants, and the situation of more than ten countries in Eastern Europe in the future will make people completely lose their mind. You are invited to this high-level meeting. Obviously, the government has set Samsara Palace as the target and intends to swallow it first.”
Dongcheng Wudi looked at Li Tianlan’s face and stopped talking.
“They are really greedy.”
Li Tianlan’s tone was cold.
“This is not a bad thing for Samsara Palace.”
Dongcheng Wudi said meaningfully, “You are in Zhongzhou State. It is convenient for the higher-ups to contact Samsara Palace via you. But this also means that many things can be negotiated. Samsara is weak because they lost the Palace Master. But if they have support from Zhongzhou State, Zhongzhou State’s support may not be less than that of a master of the Invincible Realm. If the two sides have reached an agreement, Samsara Palace should be able to act as the overseas power of Zhongzhou State with a certain degree of independence. This is good for you, for Zhongzhou State, and for Samsara Palace.”
“Like the former relationship between East Island and Night Spirit?” Li Tianlan asked.
“Almost.”
Dongcheng Wudi nodded. “They invited you to this meeting, hoping that you can persuade Qin Weibai. Boss Qin is a goddess in the eyes of others, and she is unpredictable. But she cannot refuse your request. If this matter is settled well, Zhongzhou State’s strength will be strengthened, and it will be a great achievement for you.”
He paused and continued to say, “I can assure you that this time, out of a sense of conscience, the resources of Samsara Palace will not be shared with the Wang family of Beihai and Kunlun City.”
There was one more sentence he did not say.
If it were due to public consciousness, then naturally, Li Tianlan would not be allowed to lead that.
If Li Tianlan led Samsara Palace, the Wang family of Beihai and Kunlun City might desperately oppose it.
This huge force would ultimately serve the country purely. The true leader could only be an absolute neutral force that did not participate in the internal affairs of Zhongzhou State at all.
Zhongzhou State, Terracotta Army, Generals of Four Spirits.
Li Tianlan was silent.
If this was the case, it was really not a bad thing for Samsara Palace and him.
But this was not the case.
He glanced at Dongcheng Wudi.
He found that Dongcheng Wudi’s eyes flashed with a tempting light.
Li Tianlan smiled.
If it was before yesterday, he might still have some hesitation. But after the maneuver, the connection between him and the Dongcheng Clan could no longer be separated, and naturally, there was nothing to avoid.
“In the headquarters of Samsara Palace, the dead one is Shadowless,” Li Tianlan said.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of the text message Qin Weibai had sent to him.
After the headquarters of Samsara Palace collapsed, the entire Samsara would change from light to darkness.
Was the destruction of Samsara elites just part of Samsara Palace’s plan?
Li Tianlan’s thoughts just surfaced and then faded out.
How could such a sacrifice be possible?
“What do you mean?”
Dongcheng Wudi was stunned for a moment and did not understand it.
“It means that the Master of Samsara Palace did not die.”
Li Tianlan whispered, “She’s in the darkness.”
...
Snow Country.
Mormans.
In the chilly and extremely luxurious manor, Qin Weibai stood quietly in front of the fountain of the manor’s main villa, staring blankly at the water rushing into the sky.
Even in midsummer.
Even at polar night.
Mormans remained extremely cold.
But Qin Weibai wore very thin clothes.
She wore black straight trousers, short boots, and a thin white sweater. She stood motionlessly in an open-air environment with nearly the temperature of zero, looking like a statue.
The thinner outfit perfectly outlined her figure.
In all directions.
No matter from which angle one looked at her, she was beautiful but too beautiful for people to look straight at her.
Occasionally, people went in and out of the manor, but no one dared to look at Qin Weibai arbitrarily.
From the perspective of human aesthetics, she was indeed extremely beautiful. But at this moment, her entire body was exuding a powerful aura that people were not allowed to approach. It was not the field of Martial Arts composed of the so-called sword intent and strength.
It was a pure aura, cold, chilly, and inviolable.
Flaming Fire stood silently within ten meters of Qin Weibai.
She held Qin Weibai’s coat in her hands and said nothing.
She had been with her boss for many years, but she rarely saw her in such a state. In this state, even the person around her was afraid to say a word.
Qin Weibai had been standing here for almost forty minutes.
The temperature near zero was a bit cold but made people soberer.
She stood there motionlessly, still with a touch of fury on her face.
Li Tianlan guessed right.
It was really impossible for such a large sacrifice to be only part of Samsara Palace’s plan to hide in darkness from light.
The assault was taken by the Jiang family of South America, and the largest batch of elite troops of Samsara Palace in Snow Country was annihilated.
They were completely outside Qin Weibai’s plan.
In the decisive battle in Snow Country, there were no more Super Masters available in Samsara Palace.
But the 12 Super Masters were not the entire force of Samsara Palace. They were only the strong ones at the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm. There were worse ones in the Thunder-shocking Realm in Samsara Palace.
The batch of Samsara elites in Eyme was almost one thousand people. Whether it was the overall combat capability or the number of people, it could be said that it was the top priority of Samsara Palace. More than ten masters in the Thunder-shocking Realm, almost two hundred experts in the Fire-flaming Realm, and some technicians were annihilated overnight!
Even Qin Weibai could not afford such terrible losses.
What made her even angrier was that Samsara Palace had a unique intelligence agency, but she got the news later than any power in the world. This was obviously multi-party cooperation. The Jiang family of South America and Knights Templars were only responsible for the actions. And obviously, there were other forces secretly mobilizing the national resources of Snow Country. All the communication signals of the entire Mormans City had been completely blocked for nearly five hours. Before Samsara Palace realized that something was wrong, and at the same time used its connections to lift the city’s signal blockade, the news of Samsara Palace’s heavy losses had spread throughout the world.
Until now, Qin Weibai did not find out exactly what went wrong so that the batch of elites completely exposed their whereabouts.
It only took another day for the batch of elites to be based on Eyme and finally to be scattered in various corners of Eastern Europe.
But when everything was ready, the raid of the Jiang family of South America could be said to be a real strike. Qin Weibai’s most powerful force was dissipated. She was bound to adjust her plan again in the following time.
Time was so tight.
Qin Weibai felt the pressure that almost made her breathless for the first time.
Her phone suddenly rang.
Flaming Fire pulled out the phone from Qin Weibai’s coat and glanced at the caller ID.
The note of the Caller ID was very simple.
It was not ‘husband’, which a lot of young people liked to note now.
Nor was ‘dear’.
Not even any intimate title.
But ‘him’.
Only this word.
Flaming Fire’s eyes flashed. She walked quickly to Qin Weibai and whispered, “Boss, His Highness Tianlan’s call.”
Qin Weibai was stunned, took a deep breath, and adjusted her emotion.
Her fingers trembled a little with anger, but her eyes had softened for a short time.
She thought for a while, hung up the phone, opened the communication software, and sent a video message to Li Tianlan.
The video was connected in the fastest time.
Li Tianlan’s face appeared on the phone screen.
Qin Weibai stared down at the face on the screen. After a few seconds, she laughed softly. “What? Miss me?”
Li Tianlan’s condensed eyes seemed to relax a little, and he asked softly, “I heard about Eyme. Where are you?”
“I’m...”
Qin Weibai’s eyes flickered, and she calmly said, “I am not in Eyme. It was too late when I got the news. I couldn’t do anything. This is my fault.”
She was still very angry, but her eyes were extremely gentle. The anger and affection were mixed together, making her look different from all her usual emotions. She looked a little wronged.
A strong woman was weak and fragile in front of the man she loved.
Li Tianlan shuddered and said without hesitation, “I’m going to Snow Country.”
Qin Weibai’s eyes changed, and she instinctively spoke, “No.”
Li Tianlan stopped talking, just looking at Qin Weibai’s face across the screen.
“It’s too messy here. It’s not a good place for you. Husband, would you please go to Tiannan?” Qin Weibai said carefully.
“You’re in Snow Country. I can’t be relieved if I don’t go for you.”
Li Tianlan looked at her and said softly, “The more dangerous it’s, the more I want to go. I won’t unless you come back now.”
Qin Weibai held the phone and murmured, “I can’t walk away.”
Li Tianlan smiled and nodded. “You’re fine. That’s good. Wait for me in Snow Country.”
The screen paused.
The video call was then hung up.
Qin Weibai took the mobile phone and was silent for a long time.
When the maneuver was about to begin, she let the headquarters of Samsara Palace sink into the deep ocean, just not wanting to let Li Tianlan pull away.
She never doubted that Li Tianlan could win the maneuver, but she felt that he would be seriously injured and then unable to participate in the general trend of Snow Country.
But Li Tianlan was not injured.
She did not want Li Tianlan to come to Snow Country.
But Li Tianlan hung up the phone.
He also did not want to let the elites of Samsara Palace be exposed in Snow Country.
But now that batch of elites had been wiped out.
Eastern Europe turned into a frantic situation.
The super force groups and governments of great powers that were qualified to play here quietly participated in this.
Some people might be as extremely intelligent as demons.
But no one could ever truly control the world.
So Qin Weibai’s overall situation started to get out of control.
This was destined to be just the beginning.
And over time, in the general situation, maybe all force groups would slowly get out of control.
No one could control everything.
How the general trend would lean depended on how the chess players would play every card in their hands after the situation was out of control.
Qin Weibai handed the phone to Flaming Fire.
She seemed to be truly calm.
“Tianlan is going to come?”
A voice suddenly sounded.
Lin Fengting appeared behind Qin Weibai.
Qin Weibai nodded her head in affirmation.
Lin Fengting looked at Qin Weibai and asked her, “What’s your plan?”
Qin Weibai was silent for a long time, and then slowly said, “It’s good if I don’t see him.”
She just did not see him.
She spoke very slowly, and her words seemed to carry unforgettable power.
Lin Fengting no longer spoke.
“Go to the basement,” Qin Weibai said, turned, and went directly to the main villa of the manor.
There was a very hidden passage in a corner of the main villa.
The aisle was narrow, and it went all the way down, deep and tortuous.
Qin Weibai walked ahead.
Lin Fengting was behind.
Flaming Fire went the last.
The three walked in the passage for nearly five minutes, and the narrow passage gradually became wider.
The channel became wider, and the top of the channel became higher.
At the end of the passage was a huge hall made entirely of metal.
A house was built in the middle of the hall.
The house had no windows, only a door.
Together with the door panels, the four walls of the house were made of alloy metal, with the thickness of tens of meters. It looked magnificent.
One... magnificent cell.
Qin Weibai walked to the door of the cell and calmly said, “Open the door.”
A staff member in the lobby opened the door.
A huge, ear-piercing roar suddenly rushed out of the cell, extremely crazy and irritable.
A burly figure with heavy metal shackles stood in the cell.
He was at least 2.2 meters tall, burly and almost huge, with metal shackles holding his hands and feet. He was bloody with red eyes. His spirits were weak, but his whole person was still full of indescribable majesty and anger.
Seeing Qin Weibai standing in front of the door, a flash of killing intent and anger flashed in his eyes. He took a step forward in the crazy roar.
The metal shackles seemed extremely heavy. His figure was wobbly, and he almost fell to the ground.
But he still tried his best to move forward again.
Qin Weibai reached out.
Her thin, white finger pressed on a metal button beside the door.
The innermost wall in the metal cell suddenly lit up.
The giant with metal shackles roared suddenly, but his body flew uncontrollably.
“Boom!”
In the dull sound, his entire body was sucked directly on the wall.
The entire cell became a huge magnet with the push of a button. The giant with metal shackles was sucked on the wall. It was extremely difficult for him to move.
Lin Fengting appeared beside Qin Weibai.
The giant stared at Lin Fengting. His eyes were angry, but his whole person gradually quieted down.
Qin Weibai pressed a button again.
The illuminated light on the wall suddenly went out, and the shackles of the giant were fully opened.
He fell to the ground with unprecedented freedom.
He seemed to be shocked and for a while, he did not know what to do.
“You have two choices.”
Qin Weibai’s cold voice sounded, crisp and pleasant. “First, if you get out by killing people from here, you may kill me. But it is more likely that Mr. Lin will kill you. Everything you have will become non-existent.”
“Second, climb out from here and be my dog. Climb to where you should go, and you will get my promise, my first promise.”
The giant looked at Qin Weibai with an angry look.
Qin Weibai looked into his eyes without fear.
In the repressed, almost suffocating silence, the giant clenched his fists. He wanted to rush out, but in the end, he bent his huge body and crawled forward.
“Clap!”
A black pill was thrown from Qin Weibai’s hand and rolled down in front of the giant. It was extremely glaring.
“Eat it.” Qin Weibai ordered.
