Military Counselor had been waiting for Li Tianlan at the foot of the mountain.
He had witnessed the surging waves as Li Honghe climbed the mountain and the magical change when the clouds and mist dissipated.
Now the waves were gone, and the change stopped. The sun was shining brightly from above, and the wind was blowing through the intermontane grass and trees. Under the clear sky, the mountain was shaking, and the water was turbulent.
Lonely Mountain was still Lonely Mountain, but as the wind and clouds flew away, the smell of the secular world on the island in the center of the West Lake dissipated. Flowers and plants occupied his eyes. It was pure and natural, like a paradise.
Dressed in white, Li Tianlan walked across the landscape, as if he was perfectly integrated with the view.
"Your Highness."
Military Counselor unconsciously addressed Li Tianlan respectfully. In the battle of Changdao, his
After dropping Li Tianlan off near the Sky Academy, Military Counselor took his leave. Given his current status, he certainly should not show up in such a sensitive place as the Sky Academy. In the final battle of Changdao, Samsara Palace had made a clean break with Zhongzhou State, and they were even on opposite sides. Although the few Super Masters of Samsara didn't attack the elites of Zhongzhou State, they stood with people from the Purgatory of Heaven Capital, asking Wang Tianzong to withdraw from Heaven Capital. No matter how detached Beihai Province and the Wang family of Beihai were, they belonged to Zhongzhou State, which was the fact that no one could change. Samsara Palace didn't commit treason by doing so, because it wasn't a force that belonged to Zhongzhou State, after all. But their change of stance was no doubt equivalent to choosing to stand against Zhongzhou State. For Zhongzhou State, the current Military Counselor was an
Obviously, Zhuang Huayang was not in the mood to continue discussing business. In other words, no business could be as shocking as Li Tianlan's sudden appearance. Li Tianlan was stabbed in the heart. The whole Dark World had witnessed this. But now, he appeared in front of him again. Tribulation's strange calmness indicated that he knew Li Tianlan's state in advance. What did this mean? The office was tranquil. Zhuang Huayang felt uneasy without a reason. He always felt that he had ignored some crucial things in this series of events, but he could not tell what they were. Zhuang Huayang looked at Li Tianlan and asked earnestly, "How did you survive?" 666 "Do I have to explain why I'm still alive? To whom?" Li Tianlan responded. ... His tone was calm without any emotion. But not only Zhuang
Han Yue Palace was still Han Yue Palace. Only a few people knew that the exquisite and luxury palace built by the Jiang family of South America in Huating had changed hands. Now, it was the headquarters of East Emperor Palace. Initially, Qin Weibai took it from the Jiang family of South America and gave it to Li Tianlan. Ridiculously, Li Tianlan knew it, but he never came here before returning from Changdao. What was even more ridiculous was that the woman who gave it to him had no relationship with him anymore. Li Tianlan did not laugh. It was nearly a week since he reappeared in Zhongzhou State. Li Tianlan had been living here, but he had not laughed once. The news that he was alive had spread throughout Zhongzhou State. As a result, the Special Warfare System of Zhongzhou State was buddling with noise and bustling. It caused a great disturbance, especially in Sky Academ
The shock caused by Li Tianlan's returning to Zhongzhou State had not subsided. On the contrary, as time went on, the atmosphere became more and more stifling in the Special Warfare System of Zhongzhou State. All the topics about Li Tianlan became more and more popular. With his return, the coming events cast their shadows before them in Zhongzhou State. All this was neither because of Li Tianlan's strength nor his aptitude. But it was because of his identity. And it was just because of his identity. He was the heir of the Li family, Li Honghe's grandson. This identity was like a mirror. Standing in Zhongzhou State, he could reflect the superficial foundation of Kunlun City, many doubts of treason case, meaningful silence of Wang family of Beihai, and firm stand of Sigh City over these years. It was an embarrassing thing. Kunlun City did not want to see Li Tianlan appear,
Not to mention that Li Tianlan had started from scratch again, even if he were still in the Invincible Realm like when he was in Changdao, he would never really treat a superior at the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm like a rookie. There was a heaven chasm between the Thunder-shocking Realm and the Invincible Realm. The peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm was the end of Martial Arts for most of the geniuses. Such a figure would be the well deserved high-level leader in any superpowers, the worst he would be better than being a guard here. And there were only a few possibilities of the superpower that could send out two superiors at the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm and had a connection with himself. It could be the Jiang family of South America who had given up this place but still wanted to spy on it. It could be an expert from the Wang family of Beihai who saw the recruit of guards from Wang Yuetong and p
Free, well-hidden, and effective. Wandering in the dark, ignoring the rules, the consequences, and morality, creating a favorable situation for the country in the most effective way. These were the primary purposes of the Special Warfare System for any country. Every country had its own Special Warfare System, hence the birth of the Dark World. When it came to Zhongzhou State, the Special Warfare System was detached. But this kind of detachment wasn't because of how powerful the Special Warfare System was, but because of its careless freedom and its indifferent attitude toward the law most of the time. Careless freedom also meant chaos. Not any regime would be willing to accept such a privilege system that could get above the law and had such great integration. But such a privilege system that could wander in the dark, ignore the law but couldn't voice the same opinion could survive in
The Mid-autumn Festival was coming. The East Emperor Palace which was desolate in normal days became even more desolate. When Li Tianlan opened his eyes, it had gotten dark outside the window, it was quiet all around. The was a lamp in the corner of the room, under the dim light, the Golden Retriever with smooth hair was lying there quietly, flicking its tail out of boredom. Li Tianlan sat up from the bed and rubbed his swollen and painful head. He picked up the glass of water and drank it all up but still felt thirsty. He shook his head and felt dizzy, suddenly he didn't know what to do. He heard light footsteps outside the door. Wang Yuetong pushed open the unlocked door and walked in. Looking at Li Tianlan, who was zoning out, she froze for a second, then said with a soft voice, "You're awake. Do you need some water?" "Eh..." Li Tianlan slowly took a look at Wang Yuetong, then said i
Li Tianlan finally stopped walking forward. Wang Yuetong stood beside him and held his hand tight with her head low. Her tears fell down on his hand, they felt cold. Li Tianlan looked at Wang Tianzong calmly. Inside and outside the gate. Behind him, the moonlight shone on the whole East Emperor Palace. Under the dim the light, it was the dark night. Behind Wang Tianzong, it was the road and the myriad lights in the town. But among the lights, all Li Tianlan could see was the darkness. The sword intent brewing and surging in the dark filled all his senses, he could faintly feel Wang Tianzong's sword intent wandering between reality and illusion, it couldn't be locked on. Being able to see the essence of Martial Arts wasn't always a good thing. At least right now, watching the darkness around Wang Tianzong, all Li Tianlan could feel was his strength. The streng
