On the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, on the top floor of the East Palace Castle, when Li Tianlan was admiring the moon with Qin Weibai and Huangfu Qiushui in his arms, Qin Weibai's cell phone suddenly lit up.
Qin Weibai put the peeled fruit into Li Tianlan's mouth, picked up a tissue, wiped his hands, and glanced at his phone.
There is an unread text message on the phone screen.
Comes from the special symbol that is specially noted.
Qin Weibai's mobile phone does not receive spam text messages on weekdays. There are very few people who even know her private phone number. Therefore, every text message is extremely important, and the person behind this special symbol sends it at this time.
The incoming text messages are undoubtedly more critical.
Qin Weibai squinted his eyes, opened his phone and took a glance.
The content of the text message was very short and discreet. No specific names were used, just a simple line of text.
"The target is about to leave the Purgatory Legion. Tonight is the last chance. Do you want to kill him or not?"
For a moment, Qin Weibai's heartbeat accelerated slightly.
The most direct meaning expressed by this text message is that Kuangtu Li is about to leave the Purgatory Legion. Tonight is the last chance to kill him. Should we kill Kuangtu Li tonight?
Aloof, straightforward and confident.
And this series of performances also completely revealed his absolute loyalty to Li Tianlan.
He didn't care about the fate of Li Kuangtu, and he didn't bother to think about the father-son relationship between Li Kuangtu and Li Honghe, let alone the various grievances within the Li family.
He determined his position, and then just carried out the mission purely, without emotions, without thinking about anything but whether to kill or not.
It may have been difficult for Li Honghe to fully grasp Tiandu Purgatory before he died, but in his life, even after his death, he still controlled the life and death of Kuangtu Li. He left Li Tianlan with not many chess pieces that could be used.
But each one is extremely useful.
After Li Honghe thought about it again and again, he finally handed over this inheritance to Qin Weibai. Li Honghe's inner evaluation of his grandson was no longer important. The reason why he gave it to Qin Weibai may be that he was afraid that he would hesitate to make things complicated, or maybe he was afraid that he would hesitate.
Do you have any other concerns?
But if you leave it to Qin Weibai, you don't need to worry about anything.
She may be gentle, but only when facing Li Tianlan.
When facing Li Tianlan's enemies, she will be colder and crueler than any other creature. Once this inheritance is handed over to her, it is destined to play the most critical role at the most critical moment, and there will be no more variables.
And now, is it the most critical time?
Qin Wei's white and delicate fingers rubbed the screen of the phone, and his bright eyes seemed to be shining with endless stars.
Since Kuangtu Li left the East Palace and abandoned Tiandu City, he has been taking root in the former base of the Li family in Nanyun. He has been honest, except for a few necessary appearances and one visit to the East Palace a few days ago.
, he never even left the camp on weekdays, as if he was silently waiting for something.
He waited for the establishment of the alliance, waited for the immortality potion, waited for Beihai to draw his sword, and waited for the thunder and storm between the East Palace and the Beihai Wang family to become increasingly clear.
Everything went as he wished.
So now, for him to suddenly leave the camp where he has been quietly dormant, it only means one thing.
The alliance's actions are about to begin.
It has even started.
The whereabouts of Kuangtu Li are very likely to be the battlefield of the alliance's operations.
To kill or not?
If killed, the alliance will lose a top combat power without warning, which will increase Li Tianlan's chances of winning. If not killed tonight, the other party's text message clearly stated that this is the last chance, which means that today
After the delay is over, the other party will most likely no longer be able to grasp Kuangtu Li's whereabouts.
What would be the benefit of not killing Kuangtu Li at this time?
Qin Weibai thought about it seriously.
The so-called benefits of Li Kuangtu's immortality are actually not without them, but they are meaningless. They are all dispensable benefits. For example, it may make the elites of Tiandu Purgatory who have just joined feel better, or it may make Li Huacheng feel better.
It will be more convenient to control the situation in Zhongzhou next, or something else.
But compared to him joining the alliance to kill Li Tianlan, everything is insignificant.
If tonight is really the last chance, dying during the Lantern Festival is not bad for Kuangtu Li, right?
Qin Weibai reached out and pressed the screen of his phone.
Just three simple letters.
S,H,A.
The word "kill" pieced together on the keyboard is light and indifferent.
Her slender fingers went to press the send button, but as soon as her fingers moved, her whole arm suddenly stiffened.
The sword energy wrapped around Qin Weibai's arm in a very gentle manner.
Li Tianlan picked up the phone and looked at the special symbol, and smiled: "No killing."
He turned what he said into a text message and sent it.
There was no response to the text message.
"You peeked at my text messages."
The corners of Qin Weibai's mouth bulged, looking a little angry: "This is privacy!"
"How can you have such a thing in front of me?"
Li Tianlan chuckled, took her into his arms, and asked, "Who is this?"
Qin Weibai nodded her head in Li Tianlan's arms, seeming to vent her dissatisfaction, but now that Li Tianlan found out, she couldn't say anything.
After a slight silence, she said with a somewhat complicated tone: "He should be the most trusted person by Mr. Li, if not anyone else."
"grandfather?"
Li Tianlan was stunned.
Qin Weibai frowned cryptically, but did not correct the title of Li Tianlan. She nodded: "Mr. Li left you the last inheritance before his death. He actually gave it to me. Although he had
At the border, several people were still secretly trained, some even before the collapse of the Li family. Although there were not many, the role each one could play was very crucial. As far as I know, Situ Cangyue is a
, calamity should also be counted as one, this special symbol should also be counted as one, and I don’t know how many others there are.”
"Didn't he leave all these people to you?"
Li Tianlan was a little surprised and had a headache: "And why was it given to you instead of directly to me?"
"To be precise, Mr. Li just handed this person over to me."
Qin Weibai pointed at the phone: "Situ Cangyue and Jie were the bright cards that were exposed when you entered the world. If I hadn't appeared, Sighing City would have stood up for you to resist most of the pressure when you entered the world.
So this is a trump card, but it is also a bargaining chip.
The rest are still hidden in the dark, such as the one opposite the mobile phone. The reason why I say he is the most trusted person by Mr. Li is because he controls several other people besides Situ Cangyue and Jie.
He is a secret agent. He is not even from the Li family, but he can gain Mr. Li's trust. There must be many stories in this."
"As for why I don't leave it to you, maybe I am afraid that you will be soft-hearted sometimes? Or maybe I am afraid that you will be impulsive sometimes? I can't tell, but this decision is obviously right. If you knew, then this text message would be
It will be sent to your mobile phone. Why don't you agree to kill Kuangzu Li? Mr. Li probably knows your character, so he gave it to me. I don't care what the means are. Whoever wants to deal with you, I will come back with unscrupulous revenge.
"
Li Tianlan touched her head lovingly.
Qin Weibai gave him a roll of eyes.
"so..."
Li Tianlan said thoughtfully: "This person now controls the life of Li Kuangtu? But it shouldn't be Dawn or Phoenix, right?"
The answer is easy to guess.
Because Qin Weibai said that the other party could not even be considered a member of the Li family.
Then the identity of the other party, at least on the surface, has nothing to do with Li.
Qin Weibai hesitated for a moment, but still did not tell Li Tianlan who the other party was. He just nodded and said softly: "Tianlan, please don't ask about this person, okay? I keep him for other purposes."
"What I'm more interested in right now is not him, but the person who can kill Kuangtu Li at any time."
Li Tianlan chuckled and said: "So, the person on the other end of the phone is not Dawn, Dawn and Phoenix, but one of the three people in Dawn, Dawn and Phoenix must be actually the second or fifth boy who is loyal to us, right?"
Li Tianlan smiled and changed his words: "I can only think of the three of them. Only the three of them can make Li Kuangtu defenseless. But, which one of them is it?"
"I don't know either."
Qin Weibai's eyes were a little confused. She looked at Li Tianlan and suddenly asked: "Which one do you think it might be?"
"I think it's possible that it's not."
Li Tianlan stretched out, and when his hand came down, it had already been drawn along Huangfu Qiushui's collar.
Huangfu Qiu Shui blushed and pushed hard into Li Tianlan's arms. It couldn't be said whether it was to make it easier for him or to avoid something. He was very well-behaved and shy.
Li Tianlan controlled his strength at will and said calmly: "At least according to my observation, there is no possibility of betrayal by any of them."
Qin Weibai's eyes flashed with light.
Li Tianlan's thoughts were exactly the same as hers.
Because in her opinion, Dawn Phoenix also has no possibility of betraying Kuangtu Li.
There is no possibility at all.
And this is not speculation, but citation based on facts.
In another time and space, until the fall of Dongcheng Huangtu, these three people were still alive, until she forcibly activated Wu Qing at the cost of completely overdrawing her life and set foot on the sacred mountain of the East Island.
Li Kuangtu was killed by Qin Weibai at that time.
His body was like a machine, dismantled into countless parts by Qin Weibai, who was in an extremely abnormal mental state and even in a state of madness at that time.
She was also the one who killed Dawn.
Phoenix and the child also died under her sword in the avalanche on the Holy Mountain.
Dawn also died after being blinded by her.
Their loyalty is unquestionable.
So, who can be completely trusted by Kuangtu Li, but who is hiding next to Kuangtu Li?
"Don't you want to ask?"
Li Kuangtu held the mobile phone in one hand and the suet warm jade in the other and said, "Can't we just ask?"
"He refused to say it."
Qin Weibai shook his head: "It is his task to protect Anzi's identity. He will let Anzi play his role, but he will not tell us his identity unless necessary. If you agree to kill Li Kuang tonight
If he is a disciple, Anzi may fly away after completing his mission, and we will never see him in this life, and we will never know who he is."
"It's quite mysterious."
Li Tianlan said.
Qin Weibai thought for a while and whispered: "Maybe you are tired?"
Li Tianlan said no more.
After all, life is not a movie or TV show. The so-called undercovers and lurkers, after completing their tasks, are the few who can return smoothly. For justice, for loyalty, for anything else, no matter what the reason is, long-term undercovers
Career has long become a habit. After such people complete their tasks, they will either retire or continue to lurk.
return?
There was no way he could go back. Li Tianlan said no more and handed the phone to Qin Weibai again.
Qin Weibai looked at the sent text message in his hand, tilted his head to look at Li Tianlan, and asked again: "Why not kill?"
"Because it's not necessary."
Li Tianlan laughed: "This time their so-called action will not have the second result. We are bound to win, so there is no need to use these methods. With or without Li Kuangzu, the result will be this way, and at most it will be the same."
It’s just a matter of putting in more effort. If we put in more effort this time, we will be less worried in the future. I want the whole world to watch. They form alliances, they mobilize their troops, they are sneaky, and they do whatever they want.
, I give them the opportunity, and when they are ready, I will use the most direct method to destroy all their plans head-on. The things that make people the most irresistible are often the most upright ones."
"I understand."
Qin Weibai looked at Li Tianlan with a half-smile but not a smile: "Are you blaming me for not being able to achieve success with my methods?"
"I didn't mean that."
Li Tianlan shook his head: "I just want to say that since the dark world thinks that I am absolutely invincible, then there is no need for us to play such little tricks. I don't mind consolidating their impression of me again until I destroy that
In this ridiculous alliance, who else can look directly at the Eastern Palace in the dark world? And, to say the least..."
His voice paused and he said calmly: "Kuantu Li should die in battle instead of being plotted against. I can understand that he wants the Li family and that he wants to kill me, but it is only understanding. I also have things that cannot be perished.
Reason, so I will not hold back on him. Even if he dies, he should die in a dignified manner on the battlefield. The Li family dispute should have such an outcome."
Qin Weibai hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Then I'll listen to you."
In fact, from the bottom of his heart, after analyzing the possible lineup of the opponent's alliance, although Qin Weibai felt that the opponent's alliance was unusually gorgeous, Qin Weibai also had strong confidence in the combination of him and her.
She held the phone, looked at the screen, and pressed the buttons lightly.
Li Tianlan was no longer paying attention. He turned over slightly and held Huangfu Qiushui in his arms. Looking at her frightening face that was glowing with red rosy clouds, he moved his hands slightly harder and laughed softly: "I will do the same to Sister Qin tonight.
Is it good for you?"
Huangfu Qiushui's breathing was completely disordered, and her body kept twisting and turning. When she heard Li Tianlan's words, her face showed a touch of fear and a touch of expectation. She exhaled like blue and said softly and uneasily: "Okay.
"
Qin Weibai ignored them and just sent another text message: "Where is Kuangtu Li's destination?"
The other party’s text message quickly responded: “I don’t know.”
The other party doesn't know. Is it inconvenient to ask more questions about the hidden secrets in the other party's hands? Or is it not possible to ask more questions?
Qin Weibai thought for a while and continued: "Is there any other news?"
The other party replied again: "No."
The communication ends here.
Qin Weibai put down his cell phone, looked at Huangfu Qiushui, who was obviously bullied by Li Tianlan, and said with a smile: "Do you want to bring a bed here for you?"
"Xiao Qiushui said she wants you to teach her how to dance."
Li Tianlan laughed softly.
Qin Wei's face turned red and she covered Li Tianlan's mouth: "You are the most immoral."
She sat down opposite Li Tianlan and said seriously: "Their operation is about to begin."
Li Tianlan picked up a tissue and wiped his hands, and seemed to have become more normal: "The situation is already obvious. Rothschild's people have arrived in Beihai, and Li Kuangtu has made a move. After planning for so long, he is finally going to take action.
Ha, to be honest, I am a little impatient to wait. In the next period of time, let’s see what other tricks they have, or what kind of monsters and monsters they can show up. No one can stop the rise of the Eastern Palace, and those people had better work together.
By jumping out, I can send them on their way together."
Qin Weibai lowered his head and looked at the phone in his hand, and suddenly asked: "Is there still no response from the parliament?"
The Beihai Alliance may have been extremely low-key at the beginning, but as time went by, they became more and more prepared, especially since Jiang Shangyu and Wang Shengxiao went to Europe one after another, and there were more and more rumors from all aspects.
It is impossible to say that the Parliament did not receive the message or was unaware of it.
In Central Continent, the Beihai Wang family may have a deep foundation, and the East Palace is now at its peak, but it is undeniable that in this area of tens of millions of square kilometers, the strongest one is the parliament. This is unquestionable. They collect intelligence
Its ability is even much more powerful than that of Beihai and Donghuang Palace combined.
The current parliament may already know the location of the alliance's operations.
It's just that during this period of time, the parliament has always remained silent, watching with cold eyes. It has not warned the Beihai Wang family, nor has it reminded the East Palace. The two are not helping each other, and their posture is very upright.
"No."
Li Tianlan shook his head, not dissatisfied with this at all: "Actually, this is already the best attitude. The Li family, Beihai, Jiang Shangyu, Donghuang Palace, Purgatory Legion, plus Gu Xingyun, and some other messy things
Things... After the election, it was obviously the first major reshuffle within Central Continent. At least according to the teacher's plan, after the reshuffle, Central Continent should be relatively stable for a long time, and this time the alliance's actions against me
, in a sense, it is equivalent to resolving part of the contradiction, so this battle will always come, and since it cannot be stopped, they will not show too much tendency, after all, the result is unknown, right?"
"It's so realistic."
Qin Weibai sneered.
"This is sanity."
Li Tianlan was calm: "I like to deal with people who are absolutely rational, because for such people, after we win, their rationality will tell them what they should do next."
