The King of Special Warfare

Chapter 156 - Heavenly King Heart



Chapter 156 Heavenly King Heart

In a sense, Li Tianlan, who came to the outside world from the wild forest at the border, simply did not believe anyone.

It didn’t mean that he was suspicious. He just had a suspicion and full distrust of the whole world. Whether it was good or bad, he had a kind of almost instinctive wariness.

Except for the little woman who was full of affection for him, who wanted to give him her own soul and already gave her most precious virginity to him. Except for her, Li Tianlan never thought about trusting others without reservation.

When Jiang Shangyu first appeared, Li Tianlan’s almost instinctual wariness told him that it was nearly impossible for him to befriend with Jiang Shangyu. For this young master of Zhongzhou who suddenly appeared and saved him in a sense, Li Tianlan was guarding against him from the beginning to end.

Numerous examples in the Dark World had proved that saving people might not be from a good intention. Many times, behind the seemingly good intentions, there were often the most deadly traps.

He never met Jiang Shangyu before. It was simply impossible to make Li Tianlan believe that Jiang Shangyu saved him just because of the so-called compatriots’ friendship.

The answer from Jiang Shangyu seemed to prove the importance of his vigilance. He had arrived Changdao for several hours, but Zhongzhou State had not sent any people to come to his aid except Jiang Shangyu. This showed that this operation was not as well known as Jiang Shangyu said. At least the official channel of Zhongzhou State had not received relevant news yet.

Jiang Shangyu knew where he was, but did not get in touch with Tribulation and Bai Youming who were still in Dongdu. Li Tianlan would never think that Jiang Shangyu and Dongdu also lost contact with each other, so Jiang Shangyu was deliberately concealing something. It seemed to be the only explanation.

From this point of view, nowadays, he was in contact with Jiang Shangyu, and Tribulation, Gu Yunxia and Ye Fengcheng all didn’t know about it, which meant that the three major forces had never heard the news.

In other words, even after a brief contact between him and Jiang Shangyu, if someone had an accident or even died, it would seem to have nothing to do with another person.

As for the truth behind the surface, it was difficult for Zhongzhou State to investigate in a remote place in a foreign country.

Li Tianlan stood quietly in the same place and watched Jiang Shangyu.

While Jiang Shangyu was also looking at Li Tianlan thoughtfully.

The eyes of the two people both looked calm, but the eyes of the former were indifferent, while the eyes of the latter were silent.

They looked at each other for two minutes. No one spoke or moved, and the subtle and sensitive atmosphere could make a man breathless.

It was raining at night.

Their aggressiveness couldn’t be held back anymore!

“Senior Brother Li, you misunderstood what I meant.”

After a long time, Jiang Shangyu slightly squinted his eyes and smiled gently. His expression looked honest, but his tone revealed little sincerity. “The reason why I didn’t get in touch with them is that I am not sure that you are really here, so…”

He shrugged and continued, “Since I found you, Senior Brother Li, I will certainly make contact with our people in Dongdu.”

Li Tianlan nodded, but he did not move.

Jiang Shangyu did not move either. The pouring rain drenched their bodies. Although Jiang Shangyu was talking about contacting with their people, he had no practical action. He was still looking confused, and he said calmly, “Senior Brother Li, you are hurt, aren’t you?”

“Yeah, very serious.”

Li Tianlan said indifferently with no expression. He seemed to be relaxed, but Jiang Shangyu couldn’t find the slightest flaw in him.

Jiang Shangyu was terrifying.

Li Tianlan could even clearly feel the unfathomable and unpredictable aura in him. As the young master of Zhongzhou State who was only second to Gu Hanshan and Wang Shengxiao, the 23-year-old Jiang Shangyu only reached the Fire-flaming Realm, and he hadn’t reached the stabilization phase of this realm yet.

While in the younger generation, Dongcheng Rushi, one of the top ten younger masters who was below Jiang Shangyu, had a higher realm than him, which was enough to explain too many things.

Though Jiang Shangyu had the Exquisite Bone, he had neither the Wind and Thunder Veins nor the Heavenly King Heart. The so-called constitution was important, but in fact, in many cases, it might not be the ultimate factor in determining one’s achievements, such as Li Tianlan’s grandfather Li Honghe, and Wang Tianzong, now the top one in the Divine List, even Gu Xiangyuan and the Master of Samsara Palace. They even didn’t have the Exquisite Bone, which was a little weak compared to the other blessings, but any master in the Invincible Realm who had the Wind and Thunder Veins dared not say anything disrespectful in front of them.

To a certain extent, Jiang Shangyu was such a character with no top-level constitution but had the combat power which was beyond most people’s imagination. The Exquisite Bone was rare, but compared with the Wind and Thunder Veins and the Heavenly King Heart, it was still less precious.

However, Li Tianlan was fearless.

They were both in the Fire-flaming Realm, and even their Small Realm was roughly the same. Even now he was seriously injured, he had nothing to fear when facing Jiang Shangyu.

In the dark night, Jiang Shangyu’s dim eyes gradually became bright and sharp. Inexplicable light flashed in his eyes, getting faster and faster.

The night rain was pouring.

In the silence, the brighter and sharper eyes of Jiang Shangyu gradually became calm again, and all the light seemed to begin to slowly extinguish.

“I’ve always been a very cautious person.”

In the darkness, Jiang Shangyu suddenly spoke. His tone was soft and calm, with a touch of self-deprecation, “This can even be said to be my biggest shortcoming. Since I was little, I have been fooled countless times. A lot of times I also felt that the other party was bluffing, but I didn’t dare to take risks. Others may take a chance when they are thirty percent sure, but if I’m not seventy percent sure, I would rather give up the opportunity. Senior Brother Li, tell me, is this because I am lack of confidence?”

“Cautiousness and lack of self-confidence are two different things.”

Li Tianlan looked at the elusive young master in front of him and said seriously, “How sure are you now?”

“Seventy percent before. But now there is only half of it.”

Jiang Shangyu breathed heavily in the darkness, and asked in the same serious tone, “I don’t want to miss such a good opportunity. Senior Brother Li, can I kill you if I try my best?”

He was honest and calm. He didn’t disguise, or say, he disdained to disguise. He was truly straightforward.

“You can’t.”

Li Tianlan also did not hesitate and replied indifferently, “You will die.”

He had only spoken a few words, but every word showed his confidence and aggressiveness.

“Oh?”

Jiang Shangyu laughed. He gave Li Tianlan a deep look and said slowly, “You don’t seem to understand my real combat strength.”

“I don’t need to understand.”

Li Tianlan calmly said, “I just need to understand my own combat strength.”

Jiang Shangyu suddenly stopped laughing.

Even fools could feel his firm confidence from his words.

Not afraid at all?

“It makes sense.”

He nodded, and suddenly said, “I have seen Wang Shengxiao and Gu Hanshan, but in my feelings, Senior Brother Li, you are the one who has the feature of the Chosen One. I am not being ironic, and Wang Shengxiao and Gu Hanshan are not weak at all, but compared with you, they seem to lack a little crazy and cruel temperament. You are different. I don’t know what you have suffered before, but just from tonight, I can see that you are calm, but you are actually a calm lunatic. You are a crazy person who can ignore everything.”

“You are cruel to others, and you are equally strict with yourself. You don’t like talking nonsense. You love revenge. It seems that instinctively, you do not want to tolerate any other people’s disrespect for you. Isn’t this a kind of extreme pride? Senior Brother Li, am I right?”

Li Tianlan did not say a word.

The sound of Jiang Shangyu gradually became dangerous, “So, you have revealed a flaw. If growing up and going to the peak, people like you can definitely be a hero of the generation. If you really have the strength to kill me here, you would never tolerate me being disrespect for you, so this time, you are really bluffing, right?”

In the darkness, he smiled happily. “Senior Brother Li, now I am ninety percent sure.”

Li Tianlan became silent.

A short, repressed silence.

Jiang Shangyu squinted his eyes, and his killing intent spread. He was waiting for Li Tianlan’s reaction.

A dead silence.

The darkness of the night did not change, but Li Tianlan’s figure disappeared completely.

The darkness covered everything.

Li Tianlan’s figure seemed to have completely integrated with the darkness. His body disappeared directly from Jiang Shangyu’s sight and perception. Only the dangerous feeling like the tide blasted under the rain curtain, and the breath of death mingled with the darkness. Jiang Shangyu’s body hair was erected, and his heart sank, but on the surface, he didn’t move at all.

“Senior Brother Li, you are too sensitive, aren’t you?”

He smiled. His tone became more tender.

Li Tianlan’s body was almost completely turned into darkness, his voice sounded and spread in all directions, “Let’s fight.”

Fight?

How could he fight with him when he couldn’t lock his position?

The unique technique of the “Map of God of War” in the “Invincible Manual”, Night Walking!

The Night Stride in the “Map of God of War” could be said to be the general outline of the unique skill of body movement in Xuanyuantai. The Desperate Chase of Sigh City, Li Tianlan’s Ride the Wind, and the Shadow Formula of Tribulation all could be said to be the evolved versions of the Night Stride. The Night Walking was similar to the Shadow Formula. It was like an upgraded version of the Night Stride to some extent, but it was more difficult and more unpredictable.

Night Walking plus Shadow Formula.

In the younger generation of Zhongzhou State, Li Tianlan was the best in body movement. He was well-deserved.

Killing intent condensed in the air.

Li Tianlan was hiding in the dark and was about to give out a mighty strike.

Jiang Shangyu sat down directly in the same place and chuckled, “How about we seeing what just happened as a beautiful misunderstanding?”

He took out his mobile phone and shook it in the air. “Senior Brother Li, I can give you the mobile phone. You can contact the person you want to contact at any time.”

The killing intent was gradually disappearing, but it was not scattered, just hiding in the dark.

In the darkness, Li Tianlan’s figure appeared behind Jiang Shangyu.

“I’m curious.”

He said in a plain tone, “You and I have never met. Senior Brother Jiang, can you tell me, how did I offend you, so that you can’t wait to kill me?”

Jiang Shangyu was silent for a while, but he was simply too honest. Once he spoke, he would leave people the impression that he was telling the truth. “You can understand it as for a woman. My most beloved woman.”

Li Tianlan’s mouth was twitching and his face looked strange, “Your beloved woman? Weibai?”

“Weibai… Weibai…”

Jiang Shangyu whispered for a while. He seemed to be a little shocked. It took him a few seconds to react. He couldn’t help but smile. “You mean the Goddess Qin? Among all the young people in Zhongzhou, only you can call her like that. It’s not her, the goddess is high above, even if she is willing to go down, it’s not something that I can hope for. As far as I know, there are a couple of masters who just entered the Peak of the Invincible Realm and people who have a scary background like Wang Xiaoyao waiting for the goddess. Compared with them, I am nothing.”

“Not Qin Weibai?”

Li Tianlan frowned and said, “So, you are talking about Wang Yuetong?”

“I have just met the little princess for one time. I am vulgar, but I won’t fall in love with others at first sight.”

Jiang Shangyu shook his head again.

Not Qin Weibai, not Wang Yuetong…

They were the two women who were most closely related to Li Tianlan today. They were not the ones Jiang Shangyu talked about. Then why he had to kill him? When he was at the Deep-sea Academy…

“Wait, Deep-sea Academy?!”

Li Tianlan subconsciously opened eyes widely and finally remembered a woman who would probably have a close relationship with himself; his fiancĂ©e. “Do you like Dongcheng Rushi?”

Jiang Shangyu, Dongcheng Rushi.

Among the top ten experts in the young generation, one of them ranked the second, and the other ranked the third. If the two were together, this might be a good romance, right?

“Junior Sister Dongcheng? She is too proud. I can’t handle her.”

Jiang Shangyu sighed with a bitter face, and there was not much affection in his tone. He looked at Li Tianlan with a bit strange look. “It seems that we were all wrong. We thought that the reason for your intersection with the Dongcheng Clan is because of Ning Qiancheng. Now it seems that it is because of Junior Sister Dongcheng? The marriage contract many years ago? Who are you in the end? But I’m not sure, maybe the Dongcheng Clan has contacted you through Ning Qiancheng, and after seeing your potential, they planned to match Junior Sister Dongcheng and you up? They chose a good person, but isn’t Dongcheng Clan afraid of Godness Qin being angry and jealous? It seems that things like a ‘marriage contract’ are more likely to be accepted.”

Li Tianlan, who felt that he misspoke, was silent for a while, then he said indifferently, “Not any of the three women?”

“No.”

“Who can it be? I have nothing to do with other women.”

Jiang Shangyu smiled and took a deep look at Li Tianlan. He suddenly asked, “Do you know what Kunlun City is? Do you know what is Phoenix Pavilion?”

Li Tianlan had heard about Kunlun City.

But the so-called Phoenix Pavilion…

“Is Phoenix Pavilion a subordinate institution of Kunlun City?”

Li Tianlan suddenly asked.

Jiang Shangyu didn’t say anymore. He just handed the phone to Li Tianlan silently and seemed to be somewhat disappointed.

Li Tianlan looked at him and took the phone over, pressing down his inner doubts. He instinctively wanted to call Qin Weibai. While when the familiar number was just pressed out, his emotions were surging forth like a flood.

It was 4:30 in the middle of the night.

In Huating… It should be close to six in the morning.

He hesitated for a moment and found the communication software on Jiang Shangyu’s phone directly. He logged in and then made a video call directly.

Jiang Shangyu stood up gracefully and walked away.

The video call was connected immediately as always, as if the person on the other side was waiting for the video call 24 hours a day.

The perfect face that haunted him even as he fled appeared on his phone screen. She was beautiful like a painting.

“Tianlan, where are you now?”

Right after the video call stabilized, Qin Weibai’s voice rang directly. She was not in a hurry, but with a feeling of relief. She smiled and said softly, “I heard that you lost contact with Tribulation, and decided to fly directly to East Island in the afternoon, now… It’s good that you are fine.”

“I’m fine.”

Li Tianlan smiled, and the darkness covered his pale face. His tone was soft and peaceful. “I encountered some problems in Ninghu, and I was chased to Changdao. I killed more people and just escaped.”

“Changdao?”

Qin Weibai whispered softly and looked at Li Tianlan. “Are you really okay?”

“I’m okay.”

Li Tianlan shook his head.

“The Kusanagi Force… They should not be so weak.”

Li Tianlan looked helpless. “Do you want to say that I am weak?”

“Ah.”

Qin Weibai sighed and smiled, looking extremely elegant and adorable. “I didn’t mean that. The people in the Kusanagi Force are almost no longer humans after being transformed. I heard that you met them and still took Dubian Xiangyuan away. Honey, how did you do that?”

This soft “honey” made Li Tianlan very comfortable. He chuckled, “It’s luck, otherwise, it’s still a little troublesome. The Kusanagi Force seemed to need supplemental energy. They just woke up and lacked energy. I accidentally broke the power source, and though the Kusanagi Force was strong, they were trash when they didn’t have energy. I originally wanted to capture one of them back, but I encountered some accidents and failed to make it. However, Dubian Xiangyuan is now in my hands, and I also have Xitian Mingzi, the daughter of the owner of Xitian Financial Group.”

“I know about the Xitian Financial Group. Saint has already gone to East Island to deal with it.”

Qin Weibai smiles softly. “Dubian Xiangyuan… Do you want to use him yourself? Are you planning to build a super army of your own?”

Li Tianlan nodded and was not surprised by Qin Weibai’s deep understanding of him.

“I see.”

Qin Weibai nodded. “Samsara has this kind of technology now, but it is still immature. I will put Dubian Xiangyuan into a base in Africa. This base will be separated from Samsara and belong to both of us.”

Li Tianlan hesitated, then whispered, “Her Highness…”

He knew the status of Qin Weibai in Samsara Palace. What she said could be somewhat suspected of being using her public power for private gains.

“It will be okay.”

Qin Weibai said softly, “I will talk with my sister soon, and it will be fine.”

Li Tianlan nodded and looked at the date on the phone.

June 15th.

This was the day when the Master of Samsara Palace and the Governor of Kunlun City fought with each other.

Even he had known in advance that this battle would not be too dangerous, but as the decisive battle was coming, he still couldn’t help but ask, “Is everything alright about today’s battle?”

“Everything is alright.”

Qin Weibai answered docilely, “Zhongzhou State has already coordinated with Samsara. Samsara aims to declare its strength through this battle, and Gu Xingyun is the best sparring partner.”

Sparring partner…

Li Tianlan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Far in his sight, a spark of flame was on and gradually approached.

Jiang Shangyu slowly came over.

Li Tianlan, who also realized that it was not suitable for him to stay here for too long, thought of something. Suddenly, he said, “Little Bai, there is something I need you to check for me.”

“Ok…”

Qin Weibai’s tone was a little sweet.

“Help me check, what is Phoenix Pavilion? If it is not easy to check, forget about it.”

Li Tianlan said slowly.

“Phoenix Pavilion?!”

Qin Weibai’s expression changed suddenly, and she subconsciously raised her tone. Her eyes flashed a glimmer of great pain, and she pursed her pink lips with a complicated expression, “How did you know the name of this institution?”

“I… I am with Jiang Shangyu now.”

Li Tianlan smiled bitterly, “The cell phone that I am using now is also his.”

“Jiang Shangyu, the son of Jiang Shan?”

Qin Weibai said thoughtfully and nodded slightly. Since she met Li Tianlan, she violated his will for the first time. She intentionally or unintentionally ignored the sensitive words “Phoenix Pavilion”, and said seriously, “Tianlan, this person is horrifying. You have to pay more attention to him. At least as far as I can see, although now Jiang Shangyu does not have the title of ‘young Heavenly Son’, he will not be much weaker than Gu Hanshan. If their realms are completely the same, he will never be weaker than Gu Hanshan.”

“I feel the same. He is horrifying.”

Li Tianlan nodded. “But after all, he is a talented one who has the Exquisite Bone, and it is acceptable that he is so powerful.”

“Exquisite Bone…”

Qin Weibai was silent and did not speak.

“Well, he is coming over. I will contact you again when I change a new phone.”

The figure of Jiang Shangyu gradually approached, and Li Tianlan stood up and prepared to hang up the video call.

On the screen, Qin Weibai would like to speak more but finally stopped. She smiled softly, and said, “Okay”.

“You’ve finished?”

Jiang Shangyu came over and chuckled.

“I’m done.”

Li Tianlan nodded and hung up the video call. He subconsciously wanted to log out of his account. At the moment he was about to do so, a message from Qin Weibai appeared directly on the screen.

There were only six simple words.

The words were ordinary, however, it made Li Tianlan’s pupils shrink to the extreme.

“Give me my phone. We should go. Let’s leave here first.”

Jiang Shangyu said casually.

Li Tianlan handed the mobile phone to Jiang Shangyu. His face was calm, but his inner feelings were surging.

The six-word message from Qin Weibai was clear and straightforward, but it explained the fact very thoroughly.

“He has the Heavenly King Heart!”
