Everyone could clearly sense Tan Xilai's irrational fury.
In the hearts of those who knew him, for example, Liu Dongyu, Tan Xilai always appeared gloomy and sinister. Of course, he had gotten angry, but it was not as obvious as it was today.
His eyes were bloodshot and he was short of breath. The chilly killing intent was fermenting in him, and it made him look like a wild beast that was going to swallow people.
He stormed out of the bar. An usher who was wearing a low-cut cheongsam in front of the door saw that he didn't look right. Therefore, she took a step forward consciously. Before she could ask, Tan Xilai had slapped her and knocked her unconscious on the ground.
He was panting for breath and kept mumbling to himself. Then, he went to his car and started it. Before leaving, he took a look at Ning Qiancheng, who was behind him.
Ning Qiancheng followed him without hesitation and expression.
After walking out of the bar, Ning Qiancheng d
As soon as they arrived, Li Tianlan examined the surrounding environment. They both drove very fast. Li Tianlan had been chatting with Ning Qiancheng on the way for half an hour. When the car came to a complete stop, he realized that they were already on the mountain. There were no high mountains in Huating. With an altitude of no more than one hundred meters, this place was more of a big hill than of a mountain. Even when standing at the hilltop, people wouldn't feel the heroic spirit when they climbed high and gazed far. The only advantage of this place might be that it was very secluded. No matter how much noise they made, no one would come and disturb. Today was the fifteenth day of the month in the lunar calendar. A full moon was hanging in the sky. Being far away from city lights, the deserted hill was bathed in moonshine, clear and bright. "Where is this place?" Li Tianlan's eyes gradually adapted to the dim light at the hilltop and h
One blast of force, one fatal strike. Li Tianlan had a look at Wang Yuetong and said automatically, "It looks like the unique technique of your Wang family of Beihai." "Just in appearance." Wang Yuetong shook her head and added, "The quintessence is totally different. It's like a fight between ordinary warriors who are still outside the Four Realms of Martial Arts. They perform the same punch and kick, but use force differently." The fifth ice wall broke down. Before Li Tianlan opened his mouth again, his pupils contracted all of a sudden. Ning Qiancheng, who has been retreating all the time, suddenly marched one step forward. Attack. Counterattack! The numerous ice swords flying and howling around him straightened immediately. All the ice swords were orderly arranged, and rolled toward Tan Xilai in a formidable array like a torrent! This was one of the Three Sword Storms of the Jade Pool. The Floating Life
Just like how Ning Qiancheng and Tan Xilai predicted, the battle ended in three minutes. Both of them predicted the time correctly but Tan Xilai predicted the end result wrongly. The entire battlefield was silent. After the life-and-death battle, the result was clear as life and death separated victory and defeat. However, no one cheered and no one cried. Gu Youlan, who once again wore a mask stood quietly on the mountaintop. The mask hid all her emotions and inner thoughts. When Ning Qiancheng's Heaven-shattering Rainbow Sword appeared, turbulent emotions emerged from her eyes. However, as the rainbow light that pierced through Tan Xilai's body disappeared, emotions disappeared from her eyes once more. "We lost." She whispered softly, with her voice dissipating in the wind. Even those next to her didn't hear her clearly. "He killed Tan Xilai!" Xu Yunzong roared and charged forward. "Stop!" Gu Youlan's cold
Wang Yuetong was not worried about Ning Qiancheng. These police cars were obviously here because of the matter concerning Zhong Shaofeng. Their target was Li Tianlan. As for Ning Qiancheng murdering Tan Xilai, they were sure that the police had not obtained the news yet. Furthermore, Tan Xilai was an officer of the Eastern Theater of Operations and Ning Qiancheng enlisted in the Border Praetorian Corps, making the police an unsuitable organization to handle such affairs. Thus, the military was usually involved. Huating Special Operations Bureau was just a few miles away, where both Tan Xilai and Ning Qiancheng's fathers were having a meeting. Huating Special Operations Bureau should be the organization involved if they wished to capture Ning Qiancheng and detain him for one night. Even though one night could already be considered a long enough time, entering the Special Operations Bureau would mean that Ning Qiancheng would be under the control of his father Nin
It was nearly midnight. Inside the No. 1 villa complex of the Huating Special Operations Bureau, the lights were still on. The No. 1 villa complex contained nine detached villas. It was arguably the most luxurious place in the entire base and the residence of higher-ups and distinguished guests of Huating Special Operations Bureau. Moreover, it was located in the center of the entire base. Even if this place was a barren wasteland, living in the villas could also be called a kind of enjoyment. Tan Qinghua, the Deputy Commander of the Eastern Theater of Operations, was temporarily living in the 9th building of the No. 1 villa complex. As a military elite of the Prince Group, Tan Qinghua, who was in his early 50s, was thin and looked old. His face was spotted with senile plaques, his hair undyed and gray. He looked less like a General who possessed real power in his early 50s but more like an ordinary man in his 60s or 70s. It was said that as a youn
Li Baitian and his partners could not believe that they had left Mount Tong so easily until they had returned to the downtown area and was close to Yonghua Villa. However, Li Tianlan didn't think there was anything special about this result. After all, he did not know much about The Six in Zhongzhou State, nor about their strength respectively. In his opinion, Zhuang Huayang, an important figure from the Academics, had made his appearance personally. Furthermore, Qin Weibai, the spokesperson of another big shot, had also emerged. Therefore, he thought it would be as easy as pie for the two to bring them down the mountain. Nonetheless, Li Baitian didn't think so. In addition to him, Ning Qiancheng and Wang Yuetong looked serious along the way too. Apparently, they thought it was abnormal for them to come down the mountain so easily. The Prince Group was the last ruling group. It was now the third year of the general election and was not the time for the mid-term
The extended sedan drove into Yonghua Villa District and finally stopped at the gate of Qin Weibai's detached villa. The people in the car got off one by one. While walking into the villa, Qin Weibai looked back at Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng and then shot a meaningful glance at Wang Yuetong. She said softly, "The guest rooms on the second floor are ready. You can go to bed early and choose any room you like." After that, she looked at Zhuang Huayang and continued, "If you don't mind, headmaster, how about staying in my humble house for one night?" "I'd love to." Zhuang Huayang nodded with a smile on his face. He looked at Li Tianlan with great care. This boy was the treasure of the Academics now, so he really could not set his mind at ease leaving him alone here. "Then I'll go to rest with Tianlan." Qin Weibai took a look at Wang Yuetong, intentionally or otherwise. She reached out and hugged Li Tianlan's arm with a bright smile th
Li Baitian began sighing as he walked along the corridor of the second floor into his room, looking miserable. Ning Qiancheng was heavily injured but he could move around slowly as long as he chose not to fight. Following behind Li Baitian, he frowned and asked, "Why are you moaning like a ghost?" "F*ck. This is called melancholy. Understand?" Li Baitian rolled his eyes as he looked at the big soft bed in the room, sighing once more. He shook his head and continued, "Look at Tianlan, sleeping tonight hugging the top beauty of Huating. Meanwhile, the two of us are sharing a bed too! Such gayness! Look at the difference between people." The corner of Ning Qiancheng's mouth twitched. He didn't think much but Li Baitian's exclamation made him feel that the massive bed was extremely sore to his eyes too. Shaking his head, he sat on the bed and stared at Li Baitian, laughing. "Why? Envious? Or hatred?" "Definitely envious." Li Baitian sighed and e
