The King of Special Warfare

Chapter 398 - Conspiracy in the Jinqiu Pavilion



Chapter 398 Conspiracy in the Jinqiu Pavilion

Fire Man.

Li Huacheng had heard this name more than once.

At the peak of the Li family, every sacred guard around the God of War was a strong man.

For example, Yu Donglai today.

In his 70s, his state had already fallen very far, and now he could barely remain in the Thunder-shocking Realm.

But nobody dared to underestimate Yu Donglai.

Because he was Poison Physician.

Among the five sacred guards around Li Honghe in the beginning, Yu Donglai, who was at the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm, was the weakest in his realm and combat ability. But his use of poisonous methods was strangely invincible. Li Honghe never lost a battle in his life, for Yu Donglai’s poisoning ability played a very important role.

Among the five sacred guards, Fire Man had the lowest realm, but his combat capability was the strongest.

Not to mention how strong he was at the peak, at the end of the treason case that year, Fire Man in a severely wounded state had killed more than one master in the Half-step Invincible Realm in the midst of a heavy siege.

Had it not been for more than two decades of prison life that had ruined his potential, in Zhongzhou State today, there would be at least one more person in the Invincible Realm on the Divine List.

The Tribulation of Sigh City went directly from the Qi-controlling Realm to the Invincible Realm.

Fire Man looked for a way to enter the Invincible Realm from the Fire-flaming Realm.

Once this extraordinary path was taken far enough, the combat capability he exerted would be completely incredible.

The Academics needed masters with sufficient influence in the Special Warfare System.

Therefore, the Academics had thought of Fire Man before.

When Heaven Capital’s decisive battle was held three years ago, Samsara Palace and Zhongzhou State were still in a cooperative relationship. But on the elite list that Zhongzhou State dispatched to East Island, the code name Fire Man had appeared more than once.

But in the end, due to the opposition of the Southeast Group and Special Warfare Group, Fire Man remained in the desert prison.

Now that Li Tianlan had a high enough status, sufficient power, and a suitable opportunity, he would naturally make every effort to set free the sacred guard imprisoned in the desert.

Li Huacheng hesitated, looked at Li Tianlan’s calm face, and did not speak for a while.

Li Tianlan waited quietly.

Li Huacheng was silent for a while, then said slowly, “It’s a bit troublesome.”

.

Fire Man was the vice marshal of the Border Control Corps more than 20 years ago. In the treason case of more than 20 years ago, if Li Kuangtu was the main person responsible, then Fire Man was equivalent to the second most responsible one. The most critical thing was that even now, Fire Man was not a dispensable character in Zhongzhou State. With his combat capability, he was definitely expected to be equal with the highest master in the Half-step Invincible Realm. He was equivalent to the Tribulation of three years ago.

For such a character, was it more trouble to release him under the pressure of the Southeast Group and Special Warfare Group? There were a lot of risks as well.

“I know.”

Li Tianlan’s tone was calm, but it had a touch of imperceptible sharpness. “I hope the president can do his best.”

Li Huacheng froze and looked into Li Tianlan’s eyes.

Li Tianlan calmly looked at Li Huacheng, and his eyes persisted.

He knew what Li Huacheng was thinking.

Li Huacheng also knew that Li Tianlan knew what he was thinking.

If the Giant Group cooperated with the Academics, then it would not be difficult to get Fire Man out.

The point was that Li Huacheng did not want the Academics to take too big of a risk.

Fire Man’s identity was extremely special. Once he returned to freedom, to some extent, it was equal to narrowing the distance between the Academics and the Giant Group once again.

The chaos in Eastern Europe was extremely delicate. Because of Li Tianlan, the entire Giant Group was on the edge of a cliff. At this time, if the Academics were approaching the Giant Group, and the risk was completely visible.

If Li Huacheng supported Fire Man, the significance of that was even more important than his support for Dongcheng Wudi at a high-level meeting.

After all, when he voted, his vote was more like a symbolic meaning with no actual function.

However, with the full support of him and the Giant Group, together with the attention of the Commander of the Snowdance Corps, Li Tianlan, this resolution was likely to be passed. It could be said to have great practical significance.

So Li Tianlan said that he hoped the president could do his best.

That was very polite.

But it was also very tough.

“Wait for my news.”

After a long time, Li Huacheng whispered softly, “But even if Fire Man gets out, in terms of position…”

“Just be the captain of my own soldiers.”

Li Tianlan said, “He won’t mind.”

Li Huacheng nodded with a smile.

Being his own captain was really not a specific job.

But Li Tianlan’s identity was there.

The heir of the Li family.

Fire Man first assisted Li Honghe, then Li Kuangtu, and now Li Tianlan. For the people of the Li family, this was absolutely glorious. Why should he mind it?

“I’ll arrange it.”

Li Huacheng seemed to think of something, and made up his mind completely.

Li Tianlan nodded.

He took a look at the time, got up, and shook hands with Li Huacheng, then turned to leave.

Li Huacheng sent him out personally and watched him walk toward the Audi thoughtfully.

The military uniform was still the same one.

It was very fit.

Now, it seemed that it even perfectly fit his temperament.

This young man, who was only 22 years old this year, seemed to be adapting more and more quickly to his role. His frightening ability to adapt even made Li Huacheng feel a bit surprised.

Li Zonghu opened the Audi door for him.

Li Tianlan sat inside, lowered the window, and waved at Li Huacheng.

Li Huacheng also smiled and waved back.

The Audi left Jinqiu Pavilion and got farther and farther away.

Li Tianlan watched the night scene of Hidden Dragon Sea quietly.

Kunlun Pavilion, which represented Kunlun City, stood in the night with bright lights.

As Li Tianlan looked at it calmly, his eyes were firm.

This was the first time he had asked President Li Huacheng as himself and also as the heir of the Li family.

It was a requirement, not a request.

He did not tell Dongcheng Wudi in advance, nor did he discuss it with others.

Today, he was already the youngest marshal in the Special Warfare System of Zhongzhou State. Standing in this position, he instinctively wanted to do what he felt was right.

He was not pushed to do anything.

Nor did he act as a pawn.

Now he had a good card in his hand and just wanted to try his best to get all the cards out.

Fire Man was a crucial step, but it was only the first step.

He was facing the Wang family of Beihai.

Kunlun City.

The Prince Group.

Many speculative people.

So next, Sigh City, Samsara Palace, and even Purgatory of Heaven Capital were all in his plans.

For such a huge game of chess, it was far less easy to play as a chess player than as a pawn.

But this was supposed to be Li Tianlan’s position.

He was nervous, excited, and embarrassed. Moreover, he felt the excitement and pride that were inspired in the dark night under the strong atmosphere of power in Hidden Dragon Sea.

A ringing phone was suddenly heard.

Li Tianlan took out his mobile phone, looked at the number, and answered directly.

Tonight was doomed to be a sleepless night.

After sending Li Tianlan away, President Li Huacheng returned to Jinqiu Pavilion and brewed a pot of tea with his own hands.

He had instructed his secretary, Han Yi, to cancel all reports tonight. When Secretary Wang of Wuyue Province arrived, he could directly come in.

The scent of tea was scattered in the reception area of the office.

Li Huacheng quietly played with the teapot in his hand.

Hidden in the rising mist, his face seemed fuzzy and deep.

Both meetings today were unexpected.

It was an accident that Li Tianlan took the initiative to find him.

It was also an accident for Wuyue’s chief-helper Wang Qinglei to find him.

As the President of Zhongzhou State, Li Huacheng communicated frequently with the leaders of the provinces. But this time, he did not intend to communicate with Wang Qinglei.

However, Wang Qinglei took the initiative to find him and said that he would report.

Li Huacheng did not know what the other party wanted to say.

Time passed by slowly.

There was a knock on the door.

Li Huacheng took a deep breath, and asked him to enter in a low voice.

The door was pushed open.

The member of the Zhongzhou State Decision-Making Committee, Wang Qinglei, the leader of Wuyue Province, slowly walked in and shook hands with Li Huacheng with a smile.

“Comrade Qinglei, sit down please.”

Li Huacheng smiled and pointed to the sofa. His voice was stable and peaceful.

Wang Qinglei sat down with a smile, and said quietly, “President, I heard that Li Tianlan just came.”

Obviously this was not a report, but a chat.

Li Huacheng was not surprised. He nodded and said with a smile, “He has given me a problem.”

“Oh?”

Wang Qinglei’s smile was unchanged.

“Fire Man.”

Li Huacheng said, “Do you know this person?”

“The one in the desert?”

The sharpness in Wang Qinglei’s eyes flashed away, and he nodded and said, “I’ve heard of him.”

“Tianlan wants me to get Fire Man out. I support it. The case of more than 20 years ago is confusing indeed. Specifically, Fire Man is not so sinful that he cannot be forgiven. Tianlan now needs him to be his soldier. I agree with it in principle.”

Li Huacheng looked at Wang Qinglei, and his eyes were burning. “What does Comrade Qinglei think?”

Wang Qinglei was one of the leaders of the Southeast Group. When Li Tianlan was appointed as the head of the Snowdance Corps, he voted in favor of it. But this did not mean that he and Wang Tianzong would really be in the same boat.

If the Wang family of Beihai were truly united, there would be no such conversation now.

“We made our position clear when we decided to restart the Snowdance Corps.”

Wang Qinglei pondered for a while and chuckled. “The list of the Snowdance Corps was brewed by the commander of the army. These are not empty words. Since His Highness wants a soldier, wouldn’t it seem that we intentionally embarrass him if we didn’t agree? Minister Dongcheng will hit the table again by then.”

Li Huacheng smiled and nodded. He said, “I think so, too. Qinglei, we have the same opinion on this matter.”

From Comrade Qinglei to Qinglei.

It was just a change of title, but there was a subtle change in the atmosphere in the office.

Wang Qinglei raised his tea cup and drank, then said softly, “President, this time I’m here to report to you the situation of cross-posting in the supervision and organization department of Wuyue. Both the supervision and organization departments are top priorities. I hope to conduct a pilot in Wuyue. The specific documents will be delivered to you within a few days, and I hope to get your support.”

Li Huacheng calmly said, “Er… I’ve heard of this. Qinglei, it’s a big deal.”

“It’s just an attempt.”

Wang Qinglei chuckled. “Our party’s cause is getting better and better through repeated beneficial attempts.”

Li Huacheng groaned, nodded, and said thoughtfully, “But if this pilot is passed, it will be difficult for us to see results in a short time. It will take time.”

“Indeed.”

Wang Qinglei nodded, and said profoundly, “Wuyue needs time. I need time. President, don’t you need time?”

Li Huacheng’s expression changed slightly, and he took a look at Wang Qinglei, intentionally or otherwise.

He certainly needed time. He needed more time than anyone.

He had more than three years left on his term. During these three years, he had to plan a future for the Academics. At present, it was extremely difficult for him to achieve his goal.

Time was of the essence for Li Huacheng.

“Qinglei, do your words seem to mean something?”

Li Huacheng rubbed his hair with the palm of his hand. His tone was calm.

“I’m telling the truth.”

Wang Qinglei smiled, looked at Li Huacheng, and whispered, “Mr. President, we all need time. You give me the time I need and naturally, I can give you what you need.”

He looked at Li Huacheng peacefully, and smilingly asked a question that was almost fatally attractive for Li Huacheng.

“Mr. President, do you want to be re-elected?”
