Chapter 456 - What Was the Chosen One?
Chapter 456 What Was the Chosen One?
Gongsun Qi was silent for a long time.
The wind in the night of Eastern Europe, whether it was in winter or summer, had a chill that went deep into the bone marrow.
The night wind whistled over the top of the mountain and blew far away with the body temperature.
Some memories seemed to appear at the end of the wind, becoming clearer and clearer.
“I’ve sent the person away.”
“Is that what you call having no choice?”
“If we stop moving forward, we fall back.”
“Good! Who will forgive you?”
“We don’t need to be forgiven.”
“He-he, bullshit!”
“How dare you! Kneel down!”
“What? Are you ashamed of yourself? Do you have to make everyone’s life meaningless?”
“There are many kinds of meanings in life. But that’s meaningless in nature. What’s the point of me standing here and us standing on high ground?”
“Ridiculous.”
“That’s the truth.”
“I’m very disappointed.”
“The truth is the only thing that can disappoint people.”
“That makes sense. Just like you are my father. That’s the fact, the most disappointing fact.”
“…I’m not your father anymore.”
“Hmm?”
“I will announce to the outside world that you are dead. You have to leave here and change your identity, your name, as well as your background. Wait for the opportunity. Maybe when the time comes, you will find that everything today is meaningful.”
“…”
“What other requirements do you have? I can try my best to satisfy you.”
“I want to take a look at my daughter.”
“Just take a look? I thought you were going to take her away.”
“Take her away? Ha…”
…
“These are all the papers that belong to you. We have arranged the mission of your unit, the execution personnel, the search-and-rescue personnel, the first-aid doctor, and the proof of your death.
“And the cosmetic surgeon, the new identity, the native place, and all kinds of records since childhood. The information is particularly true, and there will be no flaws. From now on, if you walk out of this door, you will not be my son. You will feel disappointed or absurd. Wait for the future.”
“Then who am I? Who should I be?”
“New identity. Your new name …is …”
“Qi.”
…
Gongsun Qi suddenly came to his senses.
The image in his memory was warm and yet indifferent.
The night sky in Eastern Europe was cold and yet warm.
Qin Weibai was still standing in front of him, bending down.
Lin Fengting, who was on one side, had already calmed down.
Gongsun Qi didn’t know how long he had been silent. He took a deep breath and looked at Qin Weibai, who looked composed in front of him. He nodded and said, “It’s really you, Boss Qin.”
“Thank you for your compliment, Third Uncle.”
Qin Weibai smiled faintly.
“How did you know that?”
Gongsun Qi forced himself to calm down.
He never thought that his identity would be recognized by Qin Weibai in one go.
There wasn’t any Gongsun family in Zhongzhou State that was powerful enough to have a glorious past.
Therefore, Gongsun Qi naturally didn’t share the surname Gongsun.
He was just Qi.
It was absolutely a secret, and even his brothers didn’t know about it.
Gongsun Qi couldn’t figure out how Qin Weibai got to know about this matter.
Qin Weibai thought for a moment. There were some things that were hard for her to explain, so she could only casually say, “It’s just a piece of information that I got by accident.”
Gongsun Qi took a deep look at her and didn’t continue to ask more about this topic. He just asked calmly, “Are you sure Jiang Qiansong will come here?”
“That’s his only choice,” Qin Weibai whispered.
…
Gongsun Qi nodded. “But I also have to remind you that from the standpoint of the Jiang family of South America, he can cooperate with anyone, but he will not cooperate with Zhongzhou State. On behalf of Zhongzhou State, there are not many things that I can discuss with him.”
“But as long as he comes, Zhongzhou State is his only option.”
Qin Weibai’s tone was more firm.
The Samsara Palace expanded rapidly, but its foundation was unstable. Moreover, the news that the Master of Samsara Palace “died” had spread throughout the Dark World, and the largest group of elites of Samsara Palace in Eastern Europe had been wiped out.
The Lin Clan was very strong, but they didn’t want to enter the secular world.
So on this hill tonight, there were three parties standing here, but it was only Gongsun Qi who was qualified to discuss with Jiang Qiansong.
He might not represent Zhongzhou State, but the sound of the Terracotta Army and the Snowdance Corps in Eastern Europe was the sound of Zhongzhou State.
As long as Jiang Qianqing fled here tonight, he could only choose to talk with Zhongzhou State in the face of Lin Fengting’s sword.
“You seem to value the Jiang family of South America very much?” Lin Fengting suddenly asked.
…
The enmity between the Jiang family of South America and the Samsara Palace was very deep. Especially after the final battle in Heaven Capital, the two superpowers had hardly lived peacefully over the years. Jiang Qiansong’s defensive power was extremely strong. However, Lin Fengting would definitely not believe that Qin Weibai, who was determined to live, was willing to give up the grievances between the two superpowers, rely on Jiang Qiansong’s defensive power, and even waste such a discreet disposition of combat forces here.
Qin Weibai hesitated and said, “I need the Jiang family of South America to provide me with something.”
“The list?”
Lin Fengting narrowed his eyes. “How could they have it?”
“It’s a kind of liquid metal.”
Qin Weibai said slowly, “At present, the Jiang family of South America should still be working on the development of that kind of metal. I have a formula that can speed up its research progress. If the situation is optimistic, as long as we get it, it will be a crucial trump card in the final battle.”
Lin Fengting frowned.
Qin Weibai glanced at him and suddenly said, “Are you willing to face the Devil Troop of the Wang family of Beihai without any defensive equipment?”
To resist the Devil Troop without any defense.
It was not that Lin Fengting couldn’t bear it.
But even if he could bear it, he didn’t want to do it.
However, Lin Fengting still felt uncomfortable when he heard this sentence.
The development technology of individual defense equipment of the Jiang family of South America was indeed unparalleled in the world.
However, the Lin Clan was not a good-for-nothing who was incapable of developing similar equipment.
As long as Lin Fengting wanted, the equipment he wore could also be luxurious.
“We, the Lin Clan, also have our own technologies,” Lin Fengting said calmly.
…
“But it won’t be a bad thing if there’s a better thing.”
Qin Weibai looked at the mountains under the night sky in the distance and said faintly, “And the Jiang family of South America owns more than those technologies. Their resources are equally important. At this point, I can’t predict the ending. It’s not a bad thing to prepare more. Our opponents are mighty, and our allies have evil intentions. In this case, I’ll cherish it even if it’s a little bit of strength, let alone Jiang Qiansong and the Jiang family of South America.”
“I don’t understand.”
Gongsun Qi came over and said, “You are Li Tianlan’s woman. Everything you have done is for him. But what good have you done him by leading the situation to where it is today? Boss Qin, I have a question for you. Do you know why the Wang family of Beihai’s killing intent for Li Tianlan is getting stronger and stronger?”
“Three reasons.”
Qin Weibai glanced at him, and there was an unexplainable smile in her bright and dreamy eyes. “First, Tianlan’s identity. The Li family he shoulders is destined not to stand side by side with the Wang family of Beihai. Second, Tianlan’s aptitude. If the Wang family of Beihai doesn’t take action, Tianlan is bound to be big trouble for them in the future.”
“They are indeed the reasons.”
Gongsun Qi nodded and looked at Qin Weibai. “But they’re not the most important ones. With the reconciliation of Zhongzhou State, they’re not necessarily going to fight a life-or-death battle because of some conflicts.”
“The most important thing is naturally because of my existence.”
Qin Weibai chuckled and suddenly asked, “Are you afraid of me?”
This question was very abrupt and extremely arrogant.
But Gongsun Qi was not angry. He thought about it seriously and said cautiously, “I can’t see through you.”
“Wang Tianzong can’t see through me, either.”
Qin Weibai said calmly, “A woman whom he can’t see through is walking with Tianlan. Given Wang Tianzong’s character, he will definitely kill Tianlan as soon as possible because he will not let go of any possible threat to the future of the Wang family of Beihai.”
“So, to be honest, between Li Tianlan and the Wang family of Beihai, I personally think Boss Qin always…”
Gongsun Qi paused.
“Stir up trouble?”
Qin Weibai smiled and said what Gongsun Qi wanted to say but didn’t say.
Gongsun Qi silently admitted.
Qin Weibai’s eyes gradually became cold. She slowly turned around and looked down at the mountain with a straight face. She seemed to gradually become an ice sculpture exuding fragrance but without any temperature.
She remained silent for a long time before whispering, “What do you know?”
“At least I understand the situation of Li Tianlan now. The Wang family of Beihai wants to kill him, so does Kunlun City. The country is not peaceful. Now, with the outbreak of the chaos in Eastern Europe, the entire Dark World is not peaceful. Li Tianlan is growing up. But after tonight, he will occupy Eastern Europe, and the entire Dark World will want to kill him. His situation will become unprecedentedly dangerous. In such a cruel environment, do you think that Li Tianlan can feel like a duck to water, Boss Qin?” Gongsun asked.
…
“No.”
Qin Weibai shook her head.
Gongsun Qi’s eyes became extremely sharp in an instant. “Why would you destroy the Samsara Palace to create the current chaos?”
“As you said, in such an environment, Tianlan can’t do everything smoothly, and he can hardly survive.”
Qin Weibai softly said, “This era is too cruel. So a new era is needed.”
“So what?”
Gongsun Qi sneered, “He has enemies everywhere. What’s the difference between the new era and the old era?”
“In the new era, Tianlan is the Chosen One. Isn’t this difference big enough?” Qin Weibai asked.
…
“The Chosen One is indeed strong, but how can there be an absolute thing in the world?”
Gongsun Qi shook his head.
Qin Weibai suddenly fell silent.
When Gongsun Qi thought she had nothing to say, she asked, “What do you think is invincible?”
Lin Fengting and Gongsun Qi frowned at the same time.
It was a question involving a lot.
So neither of them answered.
“The Invincible Realm represents invincibility.
“The true invincibility is perfection, in terms of Martial Arts.
“Perfection has no flaws.
“So, the Chosen One is perfect and flawless.
“There are two kinds of sayings in the Dark World. Based on the Martial Arts of the Li family and the Wang family of Beihai, in the end, there will be reality and illusion, light and darkness. They are the so-called roads of the Chosen One, but many people actually forget that the one who has pointed out these two paths has never seen the true Chosen One himself. ”
Gongsun Qi and Lin Fengting looked at each other, and neither of them spoke.
Only Qin Weibai’s cool and pleasant voice echoed in the mountain breeze. “How ridiculous it is for the one who has never seen the Chosen One to talk about the Chosen One? Since it is already perfect without defects, then reality and illusion, light and darkness, have no difference in the end. The true Chosen One is the strongest in all aspects, so the real and yet illusory sword intent can alternate the day and night at last. Sword of Day and Night can destroy the sky and the sea. In front of the Chosen One, Martial Arts are Martial Arts. As for those who take those two paths as truth, they can only be close to the level of the Chosen One.”
Qin Weibai turned, looked at Lin Fengting and Gongsun Qi, and said in a soft voice, “Tianlan is the Chosen One, but do you know what the Chosen One is?”
“Invincible, absolute dominance… In my opinion, the real Chosen One is the one who can overturn the entire Dark World alone!”
“In the era of the Chosen One, no one can kill the Chosen One. He cannot be killed by any lineup of forces in any way.”
Lin Fengting suddenly glanced at Qin Weibai, thinking that since no one could kill the Chosen One with any means, what about Dongcheng Huangtu?
Qin Weibai noticed Lin Fengting’s gaze.
She seemed to think of something, turning her head slightly and whispering, “Unless he wants to die.”
