YM778.TV Chapter 470 - The Jiang Family Wasn’t Convinced
The rain stopped in Lin’an.
The lonely boat on the West Lake was still floating.
The touch of the night had not changed at all.
The one on the lonely boat was Saint, who was about to break through.
The night didn’t change, and there was no hope for Saint to make a breakthrough.
His Majesty knew that he would lose one threat in the chaos in Eastern Europe.
But he was not happy at all.
It had been two days since Wang Qinglei left here.
The X-ray had been in Eastern Europe for almost one day, but nothing had changed in Eastern Europe, and nothing had shocked the Dark World. The X-ray entered Eastern Europe, like a stone sinking into the sea, and it seemed that it had never stirred the slightest ripple in Wang Tianzong’s heart.
His Majesty did not know what went wrong.
He did not know that Qin Weibai, who was meticulous, would also leave an X-ray of that year, either.
But he was well aware of Wang Tianzong’s courage, and he, too, knew the caution of the Sword Emperor.
No matter what the Dark World’s evaluation of Wang Tianzong was, from an objective perspective, Wang Tianzong could be regarded as someone with rare gifts and bold strategy. It seemed that such a person should be born to be an ambitious person standing at the peak. As one of the most outstanding patriarchs of the Wang family of Beihai for hundreds of years, Wang Tianzong was extremely decisive.
It had been a day since the X-ray was sent.
At least Wang Tianzong should have received the information that there was probably a super master behind the Li family.
Whether the information was misleading or not, at least Wang Tianzong could not see anything wrong with it due to his limitations.
But Wang Tianzong didn’t do anything.
This probably indicated that Wang Tianzong would not take action.
His Majesty calmly stood up. The air conditioning in the private room was on full blast, and the light was dim. In the dim light, his eyes were still calm. Although there was no excitement in them, there was no frustration or loss either.
There was a small bottle on the expensive sandalwood table in the private room.
In the expensive crystal bottle, there were several drops of extremely brilliant liquid.
There was also a thick folder next to the crystal bottle.
His Majesty stood in front of the table and stared at the folder in front of him. He hesitated for a long time.
He remembered Li Honghe’s reaction when he saw that X-ray.
He had said that the Li family owed him.
When he said that, Li Honghe held the X-ray in his hand and did not speak for a long time.
He finally turned around and left.
But before he left, he threw the X-ray back.
“The Li family doesn’t owe you anything, because no one in the Li family can do this.”
They were the exact words of Li Honghe.
His Majesty suddenly sneered.
If the Li family did not owe me, then who owed me?
His eyes were cold and quiet, like glaciers.
He didn’t care what Li Honghe had said, for he only cared about the result.
As a result, the night of Li Honghe’s departure, he got a few drops of blood of linnet that were essential for his recovery.
He obtained the blood of linnet and would keep his promise to protect the Li family’s secret because it was also in his interest.
It was just that it seemed like it was time to throw out the folder in front of him.
His Majesty thought for a moment, then took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
The video call’s response was a little slow.
After a full minute, the call was put through.
Shang, the General of Nine Serenities of Zhongzhou State, whose code name was White Tiger, answered the phone.
His old face appeared on the small screen of his mobile phone, with a respectful look.
“Your Majesty.”
“Hmm,” His Majesty said, “Wang Tianzong hasn’t responded yet?”
“No.”
Shang shook his head. “I don’t think he’ll do anything anymore.”
His Majesty understood Wang Tianzong’s decisiveness.
The whole Dark World also knew Wang Tianzong’s decisiveness well.
His Majesty agreed with this statement, and he nodded. “It doesn’t matter. The reason why Wang Tianzong didn’t do it was that some things didn’t carry enough weight.”
Shang said softly, “Maybe he saw through Your Majesty’s mind.”
Eastern Europe had become a deadlock.
Even if the major super forces had entered Recchi City one after another, without special reasons, nothing but undercurrent would flow in Recchi City, at most.
Wulan State was now the place where the major forces confronted. All the conflicts were concentrated here. However, without absolute certainty, no one would dare to take the lead to make desperate attempts, and everyone would exercise restraint and reason.
To put it plainly, it was a deadlock.
Wang Tianzong needed someone to break the deadlock and create opportunities.
He needed an Invincible Realm expert to do all this because, in this situation, only an Invincible Realm expert who was on the Divine List could break the deadlock and allow Wang Tianzong to see opportunities.
Nonetheless, His Majesty needed Wang Tianzong to break the deadlock.
Because compared to the Wang family of Beihai and Wang Tianzong, be it the resources or personal strength, he was way too inferior to them. Naturally, he asked for more.
Wang Tianzong was the strongest in the Dark World today.
If he took action, it would be impossible to overthrow the entire Dark World, but he could shatter the current deadlock into pieces.
What Wang Tianzong needed was a breach.
And His Majesty needed countless breaches.
The more breaches there were, the more things he could do.
Therefore, Shang thought that it was not a brilliant idea for His Majesty to send the X-ray. It reminded Wang Tianzong that there might be another vicious person manipulating something behind the chaos in Eastern Europe, which would only make him more cautious.
Wang Tianzong was not a fool who had valor but lacked strategy.
Which was more important? The might of the Li family or the threat posed to him by His Majesty—a vicious person manipulating something from behind the scenes?
Just by looking at Wang Tianzong’s current choice, he would know that.
His Majesty said blandly, “Wang Tianzong is not stupid.”
Shang looked at His Majesty and thought, “Isn’t this nonsense?”
“Do you know how to deal with a smart person?”
His Majesty laughed, and his voice was a little deep. “The best way is not to try to hide anything from him.”
“Sending him the X-ray means telling him that I’m behind the chaos. By the way, I also tell him that the Li family may be very strong now. It doesn’t matter whether he believes it or not. It doesn’t matter whether he does it or not. The most important thing is...”
His Majesty paused for a moment and said blandly, “If I want him to do it, he must do it!
“So what if he’s smart? So what if he’s a Half-step Chosen One? In the general trend, even a true Chosen One is left with no other choice. So what if he’s smart enough to see through everything?
“The most important thing to deal with a smart person is not to hide anything from him, but to show him a path where he has no choice.”
It was very reasonable.
However, Shang did not understand.
Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
The Four-spirit Generals in Zhongzhou State could be said to be extremely powerful.
Shang, whose code name was White Tiger, was the oldest and the most senior one among the Four-spirit Generals.
But in the heart of Zhongzhou State, the correct ranking of the Four-spirit Generals was Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise.
The most senior White Tiger only had a heavier weight than the most junior Black Tortoise.
It was not a matter of strength.
Shang’s strength was definitely not bad. He could be said to be a top superior among Half-step Invincible Realm experts.
In recent years, his weight had been gradually surpassed by that of Vermilion Bird. In addition to his growing age, the biggest problem was that he was unwilling to use his brain.
So Shang thought about it but didn’t come up with a specific result. He simply asked, “What does Your Majesty want me to do?”
“From now on, activate all our intelligence systems in Eastern Europe and entrust several other powerful intelligence agencies to help me spread two pieces of intelligence.”
His Majesty’s fingers stroked the folder in front of him, his eyes calm and indifferent. “The Master of Samsara Palace is not dead and not even injured. Now she is hiding in the dark, waiting for opportunities at any time and even creating opportunities. The sword of the Sword Emperor Wang Tianzong, which destroyed the headquarters of the Samsara Palace, failed to hurt her.”
Shang did not speak, listening quietly.
The destruction of the Samsara Palace was too sudden. Under Wang Tianzong’s sword, the entire Samsara Palace’s headquarters turned into ashes. This matter was too abrupt. On the one hand, it could fully prove that Wang Tianzong was peerlessly powerful. On the other hand, it seemed strange to everyone. Out of the recognition of Wang Tianzong’s strength, the Dark World had never doubted anything.
His Majesty continued, “Second, the Master of Samsara Palace is not the only Invincible Realm expert in the Samsara Palace. Saint and Military Counselor are not the strongest Super Masters in the Samsara Palace.”
This piece of news had been confirmed. At least a few days ago, when Jiang Qiansong fled, the Invincible Realm expert who interrupted the follower’s communication with Jiang Qiansong was not the Master of Samsara Palace. His Majesty would spread the news, but he would not provide any evidence. Some people may not believe it, but as long as one person believed it, there would be some variables in the whole chaos.
His Majesty looked at Shang and said in a tough tone, “You have three days to do all this, and I will wait for your news in Zhongzhou State.”
Shang nodded. It was not a difficult task, so he answered without hesitation, “Your Majesty, please rest assured.”
His Majesty smiled, looked down at the folder on the table, and calmly said, “You send a person who you can absolutely trust to Lin’an. Here I have one thing that can block all Wang Tianzong’s retreats. Take it to Eastern Europe and find a way to make it show up in front of Wang Tianzong.”
Shang paused for a moment, then nodded. “I’ll arrange it right away.”
His Majesty did not speak any more and hung up the phone.
Darkness returned to the private room.
His Majesty sat on the sofa, closed his eyes, and thought quietly.
The chaos in Eastern Europe now fully occupied his mind.
Qin Weibai was undoubtedly his biggest opponent.
But the Purgatory of Heaven Capital, the Wang family of Beihai, and the Vatican were not easy to mess with, either. In this situation, His Majesty felt like a child among a group of strong men with knives, trying to grab a piece of cake that everyone coveted. He did have a lot of bargaining chips now. The three followers represented three kinds of forces. Except for Jifeng Sword-reining School, be it Shang or Mellad, they could not use their power at will.
He could use the power of the three followers, but he also needed to help them get what they wanted. Given it a deep thought, there were not many resources for him to squander.
His Majesty sighed lightly and suddenly thought of Jiang Qiansong and the Jiang family of South America.
He really thought it was a pity.
If Jiang Qiansong could be saved, the Jiang family of South America, which lost two Invincible Realm experts, suffered heavy losses, and had to withdraw from Eastern Europe embarrassedly, would inevitably cooperate with him. Even in this state, it could play a much bigger role than the three followers combined.
According to the current situation of the Jiang family of South America, what he needed to pay was much less.
What a pity...
His Majesty opened his eyes and suddenly wanted to know how Jiang Qiansong was now and whether there was a chance to turn the position of the Jiang family of South America.
To submit to someone’s pressure after first turning down his request.
Jiang Qiansong’s current situation was naturally not good.
That night, he suddenly made a move but failed to kill Qin Weibai, which meant that he was doomed to be treated rudely.
That night, the stars above the mountaintop were scarce, and the moonlight was bright. Outside Recchi City, which paid great attention to the environment, there was nothing bad except for it was a bit cold. The night breeze was refreshing.
Jiang Qiansong did not want to discuss cooperation with Qin Weibai and the Samsara Palace there.
So Qin Weibai simply changed a place for Jiang Qiansong.
The follower’s judgment was actually wrong because Qin Weibai was not in the secret base of the Jiang family of South America.
She returned to Mormans with Lin Fengting and Gongsun Qi, bringing Jiang Qiansong—a super important captive.
It was not the first time Qin Weibai had done such a thing.
So it wasn’t the first time the basement of the Mormans Manor had received such a prisoner.
The secret chamber below the manor still shone with a cold metallic luster.
In a house that was completely built by metal, Jiang Qiansong’s fully stretched body was sucked by a high-strength magnet wall. The exterior of this particular house was all made of metal, but the interior walls were all magnets. Tremendous suction came from each side of the walls and the ceiling, tearing Jiang Qiansong’s body. Such a huge magnetic field was playing a role all the time. All signals had completely disappeared in this special cell, but the sound of the broadcast came in from outside through a special device.
They were the same clips that were broadcast all over the world.
In all the clips, countless presenters were angrily reprimanding the Jiang family of South America’s actions in Wulan State in different tones, accusing Jiang Qiansong of killing President Carlos cruelly and ruthlessly. The news went on and on, and again and again, it came into Jiang Qiansong’s ears.
The huge magnetic field was tearing his body like crazy, and the repeated news severely damaged his spirit. Jiang Qiansong endured all of this without saying a word. He thought he insisted very well, but what he didn’t even know was that his spirit had gradually weakened to the lowest point.
Qin Weibai had lived in another secret chamber for several days, observing Jiang Qiansong’s mental condition patiently.
Flaming Fire with a pale face stood next to Qin Weibai and looked at a black instrument quietly.
There were only a few buttons on the instrument to control the volume of the broadcast as well as the radio channels in that particular cell.
Flaming Fire had been here for almost 24 hours a day over the past few days. She adjusted the volume every hour and switched a channel at the same time.
The sound was sometimes very loud, but sometimes, it was very low. The radio channels had various languages—Chinese, English, French, and Latin.
By doing so, she had only one purpose—to torment Jiang Qiansong’s spirit.
Flaming Fire looked at her watch.
It was 11:45 at noon.
She reached out her hand and casually touched a few buttons on the instrument.
The sound in the cell began to be amplified, and the different languages of each channel began to play at random.
“That’s it.”
Qin Weibai suddenly said, “Take a break.”
“I’m not tired.”
Flaming Fire shook her head gently.
“Rest.”
Qin Weibai repeated again.
Flaming Fire glanced at her and nodded. But she couldn’t help but say, “Boss, I think it’s almost time.”
“Not quite.”
Qin Weibai stared at Jiang Qiansong in the cell through the screen in front of her and said slowly, “Only when he is close to a mental breakdown will I have the greatest success rate to hypnotize him. The will of an Invincible Realm expert is not so easy to destroy. His spiritual defense is not worse than that of his Martial Arts.”
“Boss, if your spiritual realm reaches the Transcendent Realm...”
There was fanaticism in Flaming Fire’s eyes.
“Even the Pope in the Transcendent Realm cannot easily control an Invincible Realm expert. At best, he can protect himself, and it is difficult for him to affect the other party’s will.”
Flaming Fire replied with an “Oh”.
“Another week would be enough,” Qin Weibai whispered.
She got close to the microphone in front of her and said calmly, “Mr. Jiang, can we talk now?”
On the wall, Jiang Qiansong moved his body with difficulty.
He remained silent for a while before he gritted his teeth and said, “Bitch!”
Qin Weibai didn’t show any anger and just said blandly, “Then you continue to think about it.”
She reached out and snapped her fingers.
This action was very simple and heroic, but it was also a bit charming and delicate.
Jiang Qiansong opened his eyes with difficulty.
A huge butterfly appeared in front of him in the cell.
The butterfly was colorful and struggled to wave its wings in the huge magnetic field. Its posture looked extremely twisted.
More and more butterflies were dancing in the air.
The whole world began to spin in Jiang Qiansong’s eyes along with butterflies’ wings.
The sky and earth were spinning round.
Outside the cell, Qin Weibai stood up and turned off the instrument in front of Flaming Fire.
The loud sound of the radio disappeared in an instant.
The absolute noise turned into extreme silence in an instant.
Everything around Jiang Qiansong was still rotating, and he seemed to be falling into an abyss.
In absolute silence and dizziness, Jiang Qiansong finally couldn’t help but struggle wildly.
Qin Weibai and Flaming Fire walked out of the underground secret chamber.
At noon.
Mormans City was still shrouded by the night, and the stars were dimly discernible.
Qin Weibai said, “Take a break.”
Flaming Fire said softly, “What do you want to eat, boss? I’ll cook for you.”
“No.”
Qin Weibai shook her head.
“Hmm,” Flaming Fire replied, then turned around and walked to her residence.
Qin Weibai walked in her manor, aimlessly.
It was cold in the long night.
However, the manor was full of flowers.
The rich fragrance of flowers merged with Qin Weibai’s natural body fragrance, making people forget the vulgarity.
“Boss Qin.”
A voice suddenly sounded.
Qin Weibai slowly turned around.
Tribulation came out of the darkness.
The only assassin of the Invincible Realm in the Dark World asked, “Do we have to wait any longer?”
Qin Weibai said that Mormans would be the place of the final battle.
However, it seemed that there was a tendency for the final battle to move toward Wulan State.
Then what was the point of them waiting here?
Qin Weibai looked at Tribulation in front of her, and there was something meaningful in her eyes.
She said softly, “Let’s wait another week.”
Tribulation frowned, wishing to speak but stopping on second thought.
“What do you want to say?”
Qin Weibai smiled. For a moment, it seemed that even the night was brilliant.
Tribulation asked, “Are you familiar with the Dark Knights, Boss Qin?”
The Samsara Palace had a close relationship with the Dark Knights.
That was known throughout the Dark World.
Dark Saint Spear, the murderous weapon of the Dark Knights, was applied to a battle before for the Samsara Palace.
Qin Weibai didn’t answer Tribulation’s question but just looked at him quietly and suddenly asked, “Can’t you let it go?”
Tribulation froze for a moment. After a moment of silence, he said, “Can’t I let it go?”
He seemed to repeat this sentence and seemed to ask himself, but in fact, he was asking Qin Weibai.
Qin Weibai replied resolutely, “I can’t let it go.”
Tribulation nodded. “Me either.”
Qin Weibai sighed softly. She seemed to want to say something but did not know how to say it. In the end, she just said a few words, “No result.”
Tribulation asked, “What about you?”
“I’m trying hard.”
“I don’t want to give up either.”
She was talking about Tribulation and Angel.
He was talking about Qin Weibai and Li Tianlan.
Qin Weibai was silent for a while and said quietly, “Wait for another week. We’re going to Wulan State when Jiang Qiansong is tamed.”
Tame...
Tribulation took a look at Qin Weibai and thought to himself, “Did she consider the patriarch of the Jiang family of South America a wild animal?”
Tribulation asked suddenly, “Jiang Qiansong is here. What about the deal with the Jiang family of South America?”
Qin Weibai reached out, picked up a white flower, tearing the petals, and said lightly, “Someone else in the Jiang family of South America has the say, and now the news is almost coming back.”
It was the noon of August 12th in Eastern Europe.
While everyone was watching the situation in Eastern Europe, a message swept through the Dark World without warning.
The news came from South America.
After the great change in Wulan State, the Jiang family of South America, which had been silent and had been condemned by the outside world, finally made a sound.
The timing was extremely delicate.
It was nearly five or six days after the big change.
Under the pressure of countless public opinions, the interests of the entire Jiang family of South America were carved up by the major forces.
The Jiang family of South America made a sound at this time. It was undoubtedly a tentative step forward after giving up a lot of benefits.
Jiang Guochu, the successor of the Jiang family of South America, personally faced the media and acknowledged all the things Jiang Qiansong had done in Wulan State. When the world was in an uproar, the young man in his thirties announced another piece of shocking news.
The family meeting of the Jiang family of South America elected Jiang Guochu as the new patriarch, while the former patriarch Jiang Qiansong was permanently expelled from the Jiang family of South America and his name was completely removed from the pedigree.
This move was fierce and resolute. The relationship between the Jiang family of South America and Jiang Qiansong was completely cut off at one blow. Meanwhile, it meant that the Jiang family of South America was free from those sins.
Moreover, Jiang Guochu apologized to the people and high-level officials of Wulan State with great sincerity.
He expressed his willingness to offer sufficient compensation to Wulan State, whether in terms of economy or support.
In the whole world, this kind of apology could be said to be sincere.
In order to express extreme sincerity, the first thing the new patriarch did was to apologize after the Jiang family of South America decided to expel Jiang Qiansong.
He didn’t just apologize to them through the media.
He, too, would make face-to-face apologies!
Jiang Guochu.
The new patriarch of the Jiang family of South America was going to come to Wulan State in person to apologize to Wulan State!
It could be said to be an apology with the most strong killing intent and ambition in the past decades in the Dark World.
Everything seemed to explain six words.
The Jiang family was not convinced!
