The King of Special Warfare

Chapter 396 - Chapter Seven of Night

Chapter 396 Chapter Seven of Night

Wang Tianzong was fishing.

Saint was fishing as well.

The scenery on Mount Dibing was dazzling.

The waves on the shore of West Lake were vast.

They all were spectacular.

There was light rain in Lin’an.

Light rain sprinkled down all over the city, slowly and intermittently.

The misty scenery of West Lake in the rain was as beautiful as a fantasy.

Saint in a casual outfit rented a boat and was floating on the lake. He looked very relaxed and delighted.

Throwing away the black cloak, which meant mystery and power, Saint in the rain looked like a young man with a weak constitution.

At 37 or 38 years old, he had a pale face. His appearance was not handsome, but he was very clean. So he seemed a little younger than his actual age.

The rain in Lin’an seemed to weaken his sword intent.

Saint, who was always shrouded in the sword intent, seemed extremely soft at this moment, no longer as fierce as before.

The small boat floated aimlessly with the turbulent waves.

Saint’s eyes were focused on the waves in front of him.

His eyes lost the sternness they had in the past, leaving only the most focused earnestness and expectation.

He was fishing.

It seemed that he was using his entire mind to fish.

In this way, Saint was focused and gentle.

But his focus was extremely frightening.

The phone suddenly rang.

Saint frowned, reached for the phone, and glanced at the number. He said helplessly, “You scared my fish away.”

A calm voice sounded from over the phone. “So I don’t have any fish to eat, right?”

“Depends on luck.”

Saint shook his head. “I am in the heart of the lake.”

“Almost there.”

The person on the phone spoke briefly and then hung up.

Saint put down his cell phone and continued to stare at the lake, stunned.

He made an appointment today, but the other party was not the one who was on the phone.

It was an accident.

The unexpected call and the unexpected person not only scared away his fish, but also disturbed his mental state.

Saint sighed softly. He had been recovering in Lin’an for nearly half a month.

He received no news from any source, so his mind was extremely calm.

He hoped that his heart would continue to calm down.

A dark shadow suddenly appeared on the hazy lake.

The dark shadow walked on the water under the gloomy sky and brought a strong wind with him.

The lake was shaking with the wind.

The small boat thrashed on the turbulent water.

Saint simply put down the fishing rod. Under these conditions, a fish would not go for the hook even if it was stupid.

The dark shadow amidst the wild wind fell on the ship.

The black shadow wore a black cloak, whose body was slumped over. He just coughed hard as soon as his feet landed.

Saint frowned slightly and looked at this old man who worked best with himself.

“Your injuries are serious. You should stay at home. Why are you running here?”

“It’s my habit of hard work.”

The Military Counselor resisted another cough and smiled. “I cannot be like you. You can hide in Lin’an and think about nothing.”

“I am powerless to do some things,” Saint said lightly.

The Military Counselor was silent for a while, and then sat down beside Saint. He felt the other side’s extremely weak breath. The Military Counselor condensed his voice slightly. “How could your injuries be so serious? In almost half a month, did not you recover a little?”

“Who told you I was healing?” Saint smiled calmly and said.

“What are you doing then?”

The Military Counselor’s voice was a little cold.

“Studying the sword.”

Saint said earnestly, “I am learning the sword, the strongest sword.”

The Chosen One’s sword was naturally the hardest and the strongest.

The Military Counselor quelled his anger that had just risen.

“What’s the harvest?” he asked.

“Difficult.”

Saint shook his head.

The Military Counselor did not speak for a while.

The water calmed down again.

The small boat continued to float on the lake.

Saint lifted up his palm suddenly.

A big plump fish fell on the boat under the pull of the fishing rod.

The Military Counselor still did not speak.

Saint ignored him and skillfully killed the fish, peeled off the scales, and removed the internal organs.

He put some simple seasonings on the fish.

Cumin Chili...

Saint applied the spices to the fish.

A faint but hot flame burned in the palm of his hand.

Hand-baked fish was fast and the temperature could be controlled at will.

The fish was quickly cooked through.

Saint divided it in half and gave some to the Military Counselor.

They ate fish in silence.

The grilled fish was crispy outside and tender inside, and the seasoning was just right.

But the taste was average.

“Eastern Europe is chaotic.”

The two threw the fish bones into the lake with little civility. The ice-mang flashed in the fingers of the Military Counselor. The ice-mang became water and washed away the oil stains on his hands.

“Oh,” the Military Counselor replied.

“Do you really do nothing here?” the Military Counselor looked at the calm and focused Saint and asked.

“What can we do now in such a state?” Saint asked back.

He was telling the truth. In the battle of Mount Dibing, the 10 masters at the Thunder-shocking Realm in Purgatory of Heaven Capital, altogether with their Super Master of Samsara, were faced with a master at the peak of the Invincible Realm.

Although that one’s state being a bit special, his sword intent at the peak of the Invincible Realm had not weakened at all. Under that sword, not to mention the 10 masters who belonged to the Thunder-shocking Realm of Purgatory of Heaven Capital, the General and the Duke who had surpassed the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm both almost died on the spot. If the Military Counselor and Saint did not quickly respond, they would have also died there.

Or if Summer Solstice could continue to attack with another sword, the result still could not be changed.

The Military Counselor and Saint jointly had avoided the strongest sword intent, but their injuries were so severe that they could not do anything in a short time.

If they went to Snow Country in their current state, it would be completely seeking death. The role they could play was not even as an elite in the Fire-flaming Realm.

The Military Counselor was silent, and his breath was chaotic. He was a little irritable.

“In her plan, we would not have appeared on the battlefield in Eastern Europe.”

Saint said, “It’s just that she’s too confident and always thinks she can control everything. But in real chaos, everyone is flexible. Who can control everything?”

“I’m here to discuss it with you. Would you like me to do anything?” the Military Counselor said.

He was different from Saint.

Different roads, different positions, and different responsibilities.

His injuries were equally severe now.

But even though the Military Counselor was seriously injured, he could still do a lot.

“If you’re not afraid of being exposed, feel free to do it.”

Saint said lightly, “As long as you can afford the consequences. After so many years of planning, if you are exposed now, how would the boss thank you?”

The Military Counselor smiled bitterly.

He also understood what Qin Weibai meant.

Although Samsara’s heritage was not enough, it was not really weak enough that no one could use it. In fact, to elaborate in detail, he and Saint did not have to go to Mount Dibing to besiege Summer Solstice, nor did even the Duke and Asura. It was nothing more than sending some manpower. If Purgatory of Heaven Capital could send 10 masters at the Thunder-shocking Realm to splurge, the same was true for Samsara Palace.

But in the end, Qin Weibai chose the strongest combat capability of their four 12 Super Masters of Samsara, in order to prevent them from participating in the upcoming Eastern European chaos.

But now, the largest batch of Samsara Palace elites hidden in Eastern Europe had almost been completely annihilated. Samsara Palace had suffered heavy losses. Qin Weibai’s plan would certainly be affected. In this case, could the trial in Eastern Europe continue?

“Just calm down.”

Saint said, “The boss now has the Lin Clan member behind him, so it is not a big problem.”

“But she was seeking death!” the Military Counselor said in a low voice.

Saint became silent and did not seem to know what to say.

“Why?” the Military Counselor asked.

This question was very interesting.

No matter how, the Military Counselor could not figure out why Qin Weibai actively sought death.

He knew that Qin Weibai was tolerating the Tribulation for Li Tianlan.

But seeking death and dying were two totally different concepts, one active and one passive.

The Military Counselor did not know why.

But he believed that Saint knew.

Saint also called Qin Weibai boss.

But the two did not have a true affiliation, which was different from any Super Master of Samsara.

Many times, the two seemed to be working together.

“She sought death, why?”

Saint sighed softly. When it came to the topic, his tone was filled with unexplainable exhaustion.

“We can’t stop her decision. But as far as I know, this time it still has a chance to be turned around.”

He whispered, “So... just calm down.”

“Your heart is calm enough.”

The Military Counselor sneered and seemed to transfer his anger to Saint.

Saint shook his head through tears of laughter.

“I must be at peace.”

His tone was soft. “You can break through via inner peace. In my current state, I can’t play a role after going to Eastern Europe. But if I happen to break through to the Invincible Realm in the near future, I can help my boss a little...

“If I can enter the Invincible Realm, my sword intent will fit the strongest sword...”

The Military Counselor looked up at Saint.

“Will you enter the Invincible Realm?”

“Sooner or later,” Saint said.

“Before the chaos in Eastern Europe ends, how many chances do you have for a breakthrough?” the Military Counselor asked.

“The chances now...” Saint thought about it and told the truth, “are slim.”

“...”

The anger of the Military Counselor began to rise again. With his relationship with Saint, Saint would not lie to him. Only a slim chance. What was keeping him from being able to make a breakthrough for the time being?

“You need to calm down.”

Saint said, “You are going to lose your mind now.”

The Military Counselor quelled his anger.

“I can’t calm down,” he said.

The stormy water of the lake fell on his black cloak, and it was freezing cold.

The Military Counselor laughed at himself. “I’ve seen too many cases of ingratitude these years. Do you know what I’m thinking?”

“Er?”

Saint was a little puzzled.

“Except for a few people who are really ungrateful, the type of kindness that can be forgotten is not important enough.”

The Military Counselor whispered softly, “Brother, without her, I don’t know what I am now. How can I forget that type of kindness? How can I calm down?”

“...”

Saint was silent for a moment, and then said lightly, “Loyalty can make people crazy or rational. How do you choose?”

One could be crazy for loyalty, and co could one for rational action.

The latter was more in line with her requirements.

The answer was clear, obvious but so bitter.

It was also the last answer that the Military Counselor wanted to face.

“What are you doing in Lin’an?” Saint asked.

“I’ve come to find someone.”

The Military Counselor said dumbly, “Next, we will go to Tiannan.”

“Tiannan?”

Saint hesitated.

“It’s just a layout, nothing big.”

Saint nodded. In the special and sensitive Tiannan, if it worked well, it was a veritable foundation for the emperor.

That land, to a certain extent, was the foundation that Samsara Palace borrowed from powers in all aspects to open up for Li Tianlan. Now everything was going very smoothly. After the end of the chaos in Eastern Europe, Li Tianlan and East Emperor Palace would formally rise up. But Samsara Palace could not naturally give it up easily.

No matter what happened, they could not give it up.

Qin Weibai left them in Zhongzhou State and prevented them from participating in the chaos in Eastern Europe. It was not because they could not play a role in the chaos in Eastern Europe, nor because of danger, but because the role they could play in Zhongzhou State had greater value.

“In that case, you can leave sooner,” Saint said quietly.

After he shook his wrist, he pulled another fish out of the water. It was slightly smaller than the previous one, but it still weighed two or three pounds.

“One more fish,” the Military Counselor said, looking at the water.

“I have an appointment.”

Saint shook his head. “He should come soon.”

“So this isn’t a treat for me?”

Saint pointed at the fish on the plate.

“If you don’t leave, it won’t be the fish, but a sword that will treat you. I can’t stop it,” Saint said.

He seemed to think of something, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

The Military Counselor immediately knew who Saint was about to meet. He shook his head and stood up.

As he was about to step into the water, he suddenly said, “That note is useful?”

“Vital.”

The Military Counselor’s eyes carried unabashed reverence.

“Do you want to read it?”

“I’m hopeless to reach the Invincible Realm at my age.”

The Military Counselor shook his head. “Besides, I don’t have much interest in the Invincible Realm. The killing of Martial Arts is not the best stage for me.”

He stepped on the lake and the wild wind blew suddenly.

In the turbulent waves, the Military Counselor went away instantly.

Saint was still fishing quietly.

With no rush, no arrogance, and no impatience, he was extremely focused.

The rain in West Lake was gradually increasing.

The mist was getting heavier on the lake.

Two persons in white clothes came out of the vast white mist.

One man and one woman both carried long swords.

They were both about 40 years old. The man was slightly short, with a height of 1.7 meters. But he was extremely outstanding in appearance, with white clothes, white hair, and a face like a crown jade. This was a man who was restrained to the extreme, without revealing the slightest sword intent or aura. What was most impressive was his smile, eyes, and mouth corners. He seemed to be laughing with a big smile, or even a bright smile.

The woman’s figure was extremely tall, conservatively estimated to have a height of 1.75 meters. Her black and soft long hair almost spread down to her waist. Her face was undoubtedly very beautiful, a standard goose-egg face. She had delicate facial features, but this beauty was extremely weird.

It was just like...

A woman without any temperament.

Not tender, not cold, not charming, not calm, and not flirtatious.

She did not have any temperament, so her beauty looked extremely fragile.

The man and woman in white clothes walked calmly across the lake and got on the boat below Saint.

There was only one lonely fish on the boat.

The man in white seemed to be smiling even with his eyebrows and hair. He said in a soft voice, “This technique is quite poor. The fish is so small, not enough to eat.”

“The second one is here.”

Saint chuckled and hoisted a big fish weighing four or five pounds out of the lake.

There was sword intent in the air.

There was only one sword intent, but it spun in the air in two completely different states.

The big fish pulled out by Saint was still in the air.

The fish scales, bloodstains, and internal organs began to be peeled off during the rotation. When the big fish fell on the boat, it had become extremely clean.

The man in white whistled and smiled happily.

“One more.”

“It’s enough,” he said.

Saint smiled, holding the fishing rod in his hand at ease, and calmly said, “Has Tianlan ever found you?”

“I can’t reach the appointment level.”

The man in white smiled. “He didn’t look for me, but he found the second sister. The second sister pulled me over. I’m an insignificant person. Anyway, I can just turn around in Eastern Europe.”

“Just turn around?”

Saint smiled. “Someone will die.”

“How come?”

The man in white maintained his smile. “You don’t show your stance. The second sister dragged me here. The younger brother has sent me more than 500 text messages in recent days. The phone bombardment I have received is countless. I don’t want to go and I have to. Besides, none of you were there. What’s the point of my staying on the mountain?”

The long-haired woman who had been silent smiled slightly.

This was originally a clean woman without any temperament. But with her smile, she had a very touching aura all over her. The aura was faint and not obvious, but for a moment, it was enough to dwarf the landscape.

Saint glanced at her and chuckled. “How many people are you going to take?”

“Not many people I can take with me. About 80 to 100. They are all real elites,” the woman said.

Her voice was soft like the wind, quiet and calm.

They were all real elites.

In their eyes, real elites could not be like the Wang family of Beihai whose average strength was at the peak of the Fire-flaming Realm.

But if she chose 80 to 100 people, at least half of them had entered the Fire-flaming Realm.

Saint nodded without any comment. He casually said, “Don’t transfer my people.”

“They’re all the people of me and Chongyang.”

The woman’s voice was calm.

Saint responded with, “Er,” and laughed. “The Snowdance Corps is pretty good. It basically gathers the strongest lineup of the Dongcheng Clan, Sigh City, and Jade Pool. If the Shadow Sect is smart enough, it will also participate. How are your duties arranged?”

“No duties.”

The man in white shook his head. “We think it’s too troublesome. At first, we said that I could be nominated as the chief of staff of the Snowdance Corps. If I take that position and the second sister is lazy, we can’t arrange our own people ourselves. So I refused it. I turned our own group into a special action group to make things easier.”

Saint thought for a while, and nodded. “Okay.”

“How is senior brother’s injury?” the long-haired woman asked suddenly.

“It’s a bit troublesome, but the problem is not big. It will always heal as time goes by. My recent energies have been devoted to learning the sword. If I can successfully break through, my injury will recover faster.”

Saint whispered softly, “So I’m afraid I can’t go to Eastern Europe this time. Fortunately, under the superficial identity, it is a little troublesome for me to go to Eastern Europe. You go to Eastern Europe for Tianlan, so I don’t need to mention him. I just want you to do your best to help me take care of another person.”

“Qin Weibai?”

The man in white raised his eyebrows.

“Please,” Saint whispered.

The man in white nodded. “Brother, rest assured.”

Brother.

Saint was not as old as the man and the woman in white.

But the ranking among them was not because of their age.

But it was because of the sword.

Whether it was in the Dark World or in Zhongzhou State, this man and woman pair in white was truly famous figures.

In the Dark World, the man was codenamed Yin and Yang.

The woman was codenamed Phantom.

In Zhongzhou State, two additional characters were added to their code names.

Sword Master!

Yun Qinxi, the Phantom Sword Master.

Han Chongyang, the Yin and Yang Sword Master of Mount Shu.

Among the four famous swords of Mount Shu, whoever held the Nirvana was the senior brother.

The senior brother was Nirvana Sword Master Wei Kunlun, also the Saint of the first Super Master of Samsara Palace!

Mount Shu was a very strange Martial Arts force. They were extremely united inside, but they always made a different voice when they were faced with external forces.

So they rarely made their own statements politically.

Many years ago, the standing minister of Army Headquarters was Dongcheng Hanguang.

Qi Beicang was the last standing minister of Army Headquarters.

Between the two ministers was Wei Yuanhang, the leader of the Prince Group and the uncle of Saint Wei Kunlun.

It was also for this reason that this generation of Mount Shu Nirvana had been considered to be biased toward the Prince Group.

Zhongzhou State was also familiar with Yun Qinxi.

At that time, when she was at the most magnificent time, she had encountered the Young Master of the Li family, Li Kuangtu. She made a lifelong mistake after meeting Kuangtu. After Li Kuangtu’s treason, the Li family collapsed and Yun Qinxi was also hidden on Mount Shu.

Now with the emergence of Li Tianlan, she naturally stood by Li Tianlan’s side.

The Yin and Yang Sword Master Han Chongyang was a pure swordsman. It seemed that he had nothing to do with any of the six major groups. But he had a great relationship with Suzaku, the General of the Four Spirits of Zhongzhou State. They were true friends. It seemed to be his outside stance.

As for Li Baitian, Great Void Sword Master and the absolute main force of East Emperor Palace, he naturally stood on Li Tianlan’s side.

The positions of the Sword Masters of Mount Shu were different.

But all grievances and disputes were outside Mount Shu.

Because there was only the sword in Mount Shu.

There was no stance, no politics, or strife.

However, what everyone in this generation did not know was that the Four Sword Masters of Mount Shu, no matter if inside or outside, seemed to unanimously unify their positions.

The identity of Nirvana Sword Master Wei Kunlun might still be within the Prince Group.

But Saint Wei Kunlun was the Super Master of Samsara.

A third fish was caught.

Han Chongyang made a Flaming Fire by snapping his fingers.

The aroma of grilled fish was pervasive.

The three quietly finished eating the fish. Han Chongyang said, “The second sister wants to visit Senior Li. Senior brother, will you come along with us?”

Saint shook his head. “I will not go.”

The fish bones were thrown into the lake again.

Han Chongyang and Yun Qinxi left West Lake at the same time.

The rain in Lin’an stopped.

There was still fog on the lake.

Saint, who was not full, continued to fish.

He looked up at the rainless sky, lowered his head, and carefully took out a blue notebook from his arms.

For any expert in the Dark World, this notebook was an absolutely priceless treasure.

The blue notebook was not expensive.

It was the most common weekly diary in Sky Academy.

What was precious was the handwriting inside, which stroke by stroke recorded the true most glorious years of the real Chosen One.

It recorded his forbearance, his plans, his rise, his breakthrough, his love, and his Martial Arts.

The handwriting in the blue weekly diary was not beautiful, but the strokes were sharp and mad. Even after many years, it seemed to still have a sword intent.

The eyes of Saint were almost devoutly focused.

He had joined Samsara Palace and became the first Super Master of Samsara. The original reason was because of this notebook.

It was only recently that he really took the book in his hands.

This was his path to the Invincible Realm.

Saint.

The disciple of the Chosen One could be called Saint.

Saint quietly read the notebook in his hands.

His movements were soft, and the whole person was quiet and focused.

From weakness to the Invincible Realm, to the invincible state, to supremacy.

A magnificent story of tragedy was written on the paper.

Saint had never let any word on the notebook slip by, not even any punctuation.

He went to great lengths to grasp every turn of mental state, and every sentiment and thought in the text.

The Chosen One’s Martial Arts were recorded at the end of the notebook.

It was the most detailed, systematic, and messy record.

It seemed to be something that the Chosen One had inadvertently recorded while sorting out his thoughts.

Martial Arts, realm, kendo...

The content was profound but not mysterious.

Saint read it silently.

There were not many records about Martial Arts. On the front and back, the fierce handwriting covered seven pages, like seven chapters.

Saint had turned to the last chapter.

No one knew how many times he had read the last chapter.

There was one written sentence at the top of each chapter on Martial Arts.

It was one sentence from the Analects.

The passage of time was just like the flow of water, which went on day and night.

Day and night, it was like sword intent in the sky.

“There should be light, reflecting the vastness of heaven and earth. There should be darkness, showing the truth of the world. The world should have day and night, so should the sword.”

“Sword of Day and Night can cut the sky and break the sea.”
