The King of Special Warfare

Chapter 539 Setting the Storm

The only thing he needed to do now was to wait and it was quite boring.

For Li Tianlan, in his life, it was rare for him to be bored.

He had always been like this since he was a child.

In less than 48 hours before the end of Trial Day, Li Tianlan had completely stabilized his injuries. With the dragon vein in his body, in his normal state, Li Tianlan did not feel anything special. But once his body was injured, he could clearly feel the improvement of his body every minute and second. This feeling was wonderful beyond words, but to the others, it was enough to turn their eyes red with envy.

Even Tribulation, who had always been calm, could not keep calm when he saw the speedy rate of Li Tianlan’s recovery.

Tribulation was now in the same ward as Qin Xilai. Li Tianlan was cutting an apple with a fruit knife. His actions were precise and focused, but his presence was a complete void.

No matter if it was Tribulation or Qin Xilai, as long as they looked away, Li Tianlan would disappear completely in their perception. His body was surrounded by wisps of vague mist, for the dragon vein was constantly repairing his injuries. The mist was almost invisible, but now the mist was more real than Li Tianlan.

Tribulation leaned against the bed and looked at Li Tianlan. With a complicated look in his eyes, he said, “Tianlan, you are the most terrifying assassin in the Dark World now.”

The meaning of these words from Tribulation’s mouth was self-evident.

He was the only assassin in the Dark World right now, and also the strongest assassin and killer in everyone’s heart. But when he felt Li Tianlan’s current state, Tribulation really felt ashamed.

Li Tianlan had not entered the Invincible Realm, but his combat capability was close to it. The most important thing was that he was in an illusory state all the time. In this state, if Li Tianlan did not want to be discovered, even the ordinary Invincible Realm experts could not find him. He could get close to anyone, without revealing his breath or killing intent. When he broke out in an instant, the person was doomed for certain.

If Li Tianlan in such a state was lucky enough, he could have killed an Invincible Realm expert.

He could achieve a fatal strike and a full retreat. If the target was an Invincible Realm expert, it was simply the peak and glory that all killers and assassins dreamed of achieving.

Qin Xilai, who was sitting not far away, nodded in agreement and said, “Yes, he is.”

“It is just a means of killing. Why do you have to worry about your own position?”

Li Tianlan smiled gently, cut the fruit in his hand into two pieces, handed it to Tribulation and Qin Xilai, and whispered, “Jiang Shangyu is coming.”

The room fell silent in an instant.

Tribulation took a bite of the fruit, and was lost in thought.

Qin Xilai wanted to say something, but he did not say anything in the end.

Jiang Shangyu.

Zhongzhou State had taken note of this name before, but never paid close attention to it. It was now the new focus of the Dark World.

It was not because of his status that he had risen through the ranks in one step.

It was because of his strength that he managed to reach the peak in one step.

In one day, he had gone straight from the Thunder-shocking Realm to the Half-step Invincible Realm, and even to the top of the Half-step Invincible Realm. Everyone wanted to know how he had done it.

Now all of the Dark World was dead silent.

The Invincible Realm experts from the major forces were either dead or injured. In such a situation, the experts from the Thunder-shocking Realm and the Half-step Invincible Realm, especially young experts like Li Tianlan, who were only a half step away from the Invincible Realm, suddenly became more important.

Jiang Shangyu’s rise had brought Li Tianlan into the limelight. As for Wang Shengxiao and Gu Hanshan, they were equally gloomy. There was even a saying in the Dark World that if the young generation grew up, the only one who would be qualified to compete for the first place with Li Tianlan in the future was not Wang Shengxiao, nor Gu Hanshan, but Jiang Shangyu.

Jiang Shangyu was expected to officially arrive in Recchi City at eight o’clock tonight.

Everyone wanted to know what Li Tianlan was thinking right now.

“Tianlan, what do you think?”

Tribulation asked calmly, after a long time.

“There must be something wrong with Jiang Shangyu’s Martial Arts. I don’t think he is making a breakthrough.”

Li Tianlan said quietly, “It is possible for Jiang Shangyu to reach the Peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm overnight, but from the initial realm of the Thunder-shocking Realm to the Half-step Invincible Realm...”

He smiled and did not continue.

There were indeed many examples of great progress in Martial Arts, but everything had its own reasons. The so-called “Breakthrough” of Jiang Shangyu was beyond reason. He had made a breakthrough from the Peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm to the Half-step Invincible Realm, from the Half-step Invincible Realm to the Peak of the Half-step Invincible Realm. It seemed that there were only two steps, but every step was much more difficult than entering the Peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm from the Qi-controlling Realm at the beginning. The breakthrough of Jiang Shangyu this time, was equivalent to someone who had never been involved in Martial Arts before, but had reached the ordinary Half-step Invincible Realm overnight, or even more exaggerated.

This was simply impossible.

“His Martial Arts are not important now. What matters is what his arrival means. Tianlan is different from Chen Qingluan. With his age and the realm he has shown, there will be many people who are willing to support him at any cost, to challenge your authority in Eastern Europe and the Snowdance Corps,”

Tribulation took a deep breath and said this in a deep voice.

“Challenge?”

Li Tianlan shook his head. “If I were Jiang Shangyu, I would certainly not do that, and I would even try to avoid contact with me. The so-called challenge requires strength. In this realm, I am invincible, and no one can be my opponent.”

“Marshal Li is really domineering.”

A clear and gentle voice suddenly sounded.

The door was pushed open and Gongsun Qi, the Azure Dragon of Zhongzhou State, dressed in white, came in. He said with a faint smile, “You and I are in the same realm now. How much chance do you have of defeating me, Marshal Li? Still 100 percent chance of winning?”

Azure Dragon Gongsun Qi of Zhongzhou State.

Before Li Tianlan came along, he was recognized as the first Invincible Realm expert in the Dark World. Even though Li Tianlan now had the combat capability of the Invincible Realm, not many people thought that he could challenge Gongsun Qi’s status.

Li Tianlan stood up and thought about it seriously. Then he said with a calm smile, “Senior, if I want to win, I can make it.”

There were several meanings to this sentence. This sentence had been carefully thought out and had a smooth understatement. Gongsun Qi laughed, looked at Li Tianlan, and said with a soft look in his eyes, “It is really rare for you to make this kind of statement.”

Li Tianlan waved his hand, grabbed a chair and put it next to Gongsun Qi.

On the Trial Day, Gongsun Qi, who had been strictly neutral in Zhongzhou State and even the Four Spirits, had stood firmly on the side of the Snowdance Corps and ignored the Wang family of Beihai. Whether for the overall situation or for other reasons, Li Tianlan had to accept this favor. So he was willing to address Gongsun Qi as Senior.

“How is your injury?”

Gongsun sat in front of Tribulation and asked.

“It is fine.”

Tribulation bent his body slightly. Even he maintained his respect for Gongsun Qi.

Three years ago, in the final battle of Heaven Capital, Tribulation broke out with all his strength and killed Shinichi Miyamoto, the Invincible Realm expert of East Island. To some extent, it was also a way for Gongsun Qi to help Tribulation.

Gongsun Qi nodded, looked at Li Tianlan, and said, “The president will arrive in Recchi City in three days.”

Li Tianlan understood the meaning of this sentence and said calmly, “I have not discussed this with Martial Uncle yet.”

“What is it?”

Tribulation looked at Li Tianlan in confusion.

Li Tianlan frowned and thought for a moment, then he said slowly, “The president will visit Recchi City and bring an end to chaos in Eastern Europe. That is to say, it is almost over here.”

Tribulation nodded.

That was to be expected.

As of now, more than ten Invincible Realm experts had died in the Eastern Europe chaos. All the superpowers had no leader. Two of the four families had changed sides. The other two families had been destroyed. Zhongzhou State had been entrenched in Wulan State and had formed a general trend of unifying Eastern Europe. After the night of the Trial Day, the situation had gradually calmed down. Li Huacheng visited Wulan State, and the five countries of Eastern Europe would be marked by Zhongzhou State totally. By then, with Wulan State and the Arctic Ocean Command as a core, the army of Zhongzhou State would slowly sweep through all of Eastern Europe. The whole situation would become very clear.

“If there is no unforeseen occurrence, I will return to Youzhou to report for work with the President Li Huacheng,” Li Tianlan said slowly.

He looked at Tribulation and said calmly, “But we can’t just leave the place like this here.”

Tribulation looked at Li Tianlan and listened quietly.

“So when I reported to the President and Minister Dongcheng, I recommended Martial Uncle to be the new marshal of the Snowdance Corps. Only when you are here will I be at ease, and you can also control the situation,”

Li Tianlan continued to say.

Tribulation’s face showed a touch of shock.

Perhaps before these words, no one would expect Li Tianlan to resign from his position as the Commander of the Snowdance Corps.

The rank of marshal was still secondary.

The most important thing was about everything here.

If Li Tianlan did not leave, the Snowdance Corps would not leave either. With the full support of Prime Minister Reeker and the Arctic Ocean Company, the compliance of Rekvia, and the Qin Clan as an ally, Li Tianlan’s foundation in Eastern Europe was very blessed. As long as he stayed in Eastern Europe, in less than ten years, Li Tianlan would really be regarded as a true pivotal figure in Zhongzhou State.

Being in such a good situation, was Li Tianlan willing to give it to him?

Tribulation was confused for a moment, and then shook his head subconsciously.

Everything that he had developed in Eastern Europe naturally belonged to Li Tianlan.

But this was a completely different concept from Li Tianlan’s personal development here.

“Why do you want to leave?”

Tribulation suddenly asked.

“After my return, I will go to Tiannan and develop peacefully in Tiannan.”

Li Tianlan seemed to want to say something more. But when the words came to his mouth, he fell silent with a complicated look on his face.

Tribulation’s eyes quivered slightly for a moment, and then he fell silent.

The situation in Eastern Europe was not bad.

But after the storm was settled, Li Tianlan was in a hurry to leave.

This was obvious.

Li Tianlan had a more important goal.

What goal could be more important than Eastern Europe?

Of course, it was not just Tiannan.

After the Trial Day, the situation in Tiannan was already very clear in the eyes of the interested parties.

There was the Purgatory of Heaven Capital in Tiannan.

There was also an army of more than 100,000 soldiers from the Blood Battalion.

It also had a completely free land with an area of tens of thousands of square kilometers.

All of these could be Li Tianlan’s.

Compared to Eastern Europe, Tiannan was the real foundation of emperors.

All of this had been very vague before.

But on the Trial Day, Li Tianlan’s sword strike was enough to explain the numerous problems.

Now, no one thought about who had lent the Sword Energy to Li Tianlan.

There were only a few experts at the Peak of the Invincible Realm, so the answer was easy to guess.

The problem now was why did that person lend the Sword Energy to Li Tianlan.

“The Purgatory of Heaven Capital...”

Tribulation suddenly laughed in a self-deprecating way.

Li Tianlan remained silent and did not say a word.

“How is my sister?”

Tribulation suddenly asked and his voice became low and hoarse.

“She is fine.”

Li Tianlan said slowly, “Rushi is accompanying her.”

Tribulation closed his eyes and did not speak for quite some time.
