Chapter 516 Trial Day · Under the Storm (Part I)

Night fell in Lin’an City.

The lake water rippled and the night breeze was cool.

Under an extremely flourishing willow by the lake, Li Honghe took a piece of sauced beef and put it into his mouth. He drank up the wine in the cup and said, “It’s good. Don’t you want to taste it?”

The wine was a Shaoxing yellow wine brewed by Yu Donglai himself. It was mellow and delicious. Even though the night wind was getting stronger, the aroma of alcohol still wafted around.

Dongcheng Hanguang stared at Li Honghe motionlessly.

He didn’t touch the food or drink, nor did he speak.

“You said that you believed me.”

Li Honghe looked a little serious. He looked at Dongcheng Hanguang with extremely deep eyes.

“I believe you.”

Dongcheng Hanguang nodded. “But the reason why I came here from Zhongyuan is not to listen to this.”

“What do you want to hear?” Li Honghe asked.

His tone was calm, tasteless, and even devoid of desires.

“Something else,” Dongcheng Hanguang said blandly.

This old man, who used to be in charge of the Army Headquarters of Zhongzhou State, was very reserved at this moment. But there was a kind of extremely harsh and heavy sharpness in his eyes.

“Something else?” Li Honghe asked.

“Something else,” Dongcheng Hanguang repeated.

Li Honghe was silent.

The night wind blew the willows, and the treetops rustled. The leaves fell on the surface of West Lake and made the water ripple and spread softly.

The wind was getting colder.

The rain was about to fall in Lin’an City.

After a long silence, Li Honghe said slowly, “I can’t say.”

He and Dongcheng Hanguang were old friends.

They were old friends who had a close relationship for decades.

But now, his old friend wanted to hear something else.

But he couldn’t speak it out.

The phone suddenly rang.

Dongcheng Hanguang took the phone.

Someone on the phone reported something in a hurry.

Dongcheng Hanguang’s expression didn’t change, but he suddenly clenched the hand in his sleeve for a moment.

Li Honghe’s pupils reflected a deep blue thunderbolt.

There was a muffled sound of thunder in the sky, and it rolled over the sky.

Dongcheng Hanguang put down the phone in his hand and slowly sat down in front of Li Honghe.

Li Honghe wanted to get the wine in front of him, but he withdrew his hand under such a gaze calmly.

The two of them looked at each other for a long time, and then Dongcheng Hanguang raised the phone in his hand and said expressionlessly, “I just got the news.

“Hidden God Situ Cangyue was seriously injured and withdrew from the battlefield.

“The commander of the Dark Knights, Rafael, was seriously injured and withdrew from the battlefield.

“Mellad of the Vatican ran away with Aresis.”

“Bang!”

He slammed his mobile phone on the table and bent over to look at Li Honghe. “Right now, Tianlan is the only one in Recchi City.”

Li Honghe was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, “It’s all right.”

“Crash…”

Dongcheng Hanguang suddenly stood up and flipped over the wine table full of dishes and meat in front of him. The meat and cold dishes were sent flying, and the wine jar turned upside down in the air. The wine table broke into pieces. All of it fell into West Lake and rose up one after another.

“You’re fine?!”

Dongcheng Hanguang’s thunderous roar suddenly came to his mind. “What do you mean by that? Huh? Do you have to wait until all the Invincible Realm experts stand in front of Li Tianlan before you say something bad? Isn’t that right? Tianlan is not only your grandson, but also my grandson. Now the kid is facing Paul, KingTong, the Heroes’ Club, the Eastern Church, and the Moton family! He’s only 22 years old! Only 22 years old!!!”

Li Honghe looked at the somewhat hysterical Dongcheng Hanguang quietly.

Not far away, the guards of the Dongcheng Clan and the elites of the Li family ran over at the same time.

Li Honghe waved his hand.

The rest of the people left.

There was a light drizzle falling from the sky.

The wind died down.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier.

In the increasingly rapid rain, Li Honghe looked at Dongcheng Hanguang and said slowly, “This is what he should bear.”

“Yes.”

Dongcheng Hanguang took a deep breath. “He has something to bear, but we old guys are still alive! You’re still alive! He’s fighting with his life in Eastern Europe now. What are you doing? Drinking some wine and saying it’s okay. What’s your plan? Tell me.”

His voice became a little pleading.

Even his eyes were pleading. “A little information is also fine.”

Li Honghe looked at him.

From Dongcheng Hanguang’s eyes, what he saw were worry, anxiety, and even more so, fear.

It was extremely real fear.

This old fellow had come to Lin’an from Zhongyuan just for a little psychological comfort.

But Li Honghe couldn’t give it to him.

He shook his head. “I can’t say.”

Dongcheng Hanguang looked at him, and the light in his eyes gradually disappeared.

“I regret it,” he suddenly said.

Li Honghe froze for a moment and then shook his head. His words were still the same. He said in a monotonous and calm tone, “It’s all right.”

“I know Situ Cangyue stands by you.”

Dongcheng Hanguang paused and said with a self-deprecating smile, “I’m afraid that even Li Kuangtu didn’t know that he knew Situ Cangyue because of your arrangement.

“Back then, she went to Mount Taibai. It was also arranged by you through Great Master Wuwei. Your guidance is also crucial to her success in entering the Invincible Realm.”

Dongcheng Hanguang looked at Li Honghe and said, “She’s the chess piece in your hand, but this chess piece has already withdrawn from the battlefield. What else haven’t you used?”

“It’s useless to have as many chess pieces.”

Li Honghe said calmly, “What’s the point of so many chess pieces on the chessboard? It may be meaningful, but it’s not the most important thing.”

“What’s the most important thing?” Dongcheng Hanguang looked into Li Honghe’s eyes and asked.

“The most important thing is naturally the chess player. Without this player, the chess piece would not be able to move on the chessboard. It might only be able to move around and get worse and worse. But that hand of the player is here. Even if the chess piece is gone, his palm can directly flip over the entire chessboard,” Li Honghe said.

“Well said.”

Dongcheng Hanguang was silent for a while, and then nodded and said, “It’s easy for you to say so.”

Within Recchi City, Paul had already been extremely close to the Peak of the Invincible Realm.

Charlemagne’s strength was not as good as Paul’s, but it was greater than KingTong’s and it was close to Paul’s.

In addition, Twilight of the Gods could shoot continuously.

With the murderous weapon in his hand, his combat capability might not be lower than Paul’s.

They were two experts who were infinitely close to the Peak of the Invincible Realm.

There was also KingTong, who was close to the Peak of the Invincible Realm.

Both of them were on the Divine List.

There were also some people who were suspected to be members of the Devil Troop.

How could a chessboard like this be overturned with one hand?

What kind of hand would that be?

“Even if you say that Wang Tianzong has always been your man, I’m willing to believe it,” Dongcheng Hanguang said seriously.

The content of his speech was very absurd, but his tone was very serious.

“Of course not.”

Li Honghe shook his head. “Tonight in Recchi City, it’s the Li family’s own business after all.”

There was a clap of thunder flying over in the sky.

Under the rain and wind, the old man looked into the distance and calmly repeated, “I’m fine.”

A vehicle was galloping in disorder on a street of Recchi City.

In the huge carriage, Lin Fengting looked at the picture on the screen in silence.

Without any thoughts for luck.

Even if Li Tianlan was in defiance of the natural order, it was impossible for him to turn the tables under the attack of several Invincible Realm experts’ attacks.

The wind and rain were messy.

Li Tianlan’s body was hit into the distance by several Invincible Realm experts like a ball.

Brutal, ruthless, fierce, and vicious.

This was the most obvious abuse.

It was the cruelest way to vent his anger.

But Li Tianlan was still attacking.

Again and again.

His body flew out, and the long sword slipped out of his hand.

But he struggled to stand up again and again. Without a sword, he threw a punch.

His attack was formidable, but also in vain.

There were five Invincible Realm experts in front of Li Tianlan.

But even the weakest one, Lagos, was still a master on the Divine List, far better than Li Tianlan.

His counterattack was directly suppressed by several Invincible Realm experts.

The tremendous power destroyed his body, and even destroyed the foundation and vitality in his body.

Li Tianlan stood up and fell again, then stood up again.

There was no way for him to retreat.

Even if he would die here, he couldn’t retreat.

Lin Fengting watched silently and didn’t say anything for a long time.

“Bang!”

The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from behind him.

Lin Fengting turned around.

In his sight, Situ Cangyue, in a white dress full of blood, fell from her seat. She clenched her fists and struggled to stand up.

But her injury was so serious that she could not stand up. In the end, she chose to kneel on the ground.

She knelt down in front of Lin Fengting.

The Hidden God of Zhongzhou State, who had been extremely proud all her life, tried her best to kneel there, with blood and tears all over her face.

“Please…”

She looked at the screen.

In the image, blood rain was falling.

Li Tianlan’s figure swayed.

Situ Cangyue’s gaze fell on Lin Fengting.

It was the weakness and begging of a person who had given up all their dignity and honor. But it was extremely weak and real.

“Please, help him… please…”

Her body was trembling and her head was getting lower and lower.

Lin Fengting walked over and also knelt down in front of Situ Cangyue.

His eyes were calm, but there was an undisguised bitter smile on his face. “Your Highness, this is too much. I can’t afford such a big bow. Get up, then we’ll talk about it.”

Situ Cangyue used all her strength to grab Lin Fengting’s wrist. She shook her head and repeated, “Please save him.”

“I can’t make a move tonight.”

Lin Fengting said apologetically, “But I can assure you that Tianlan will be fine.”

Situ Cangyue looked at Lin Fengting in a daze.

Her eyes turned black and white, and finally, they were filled with hatred.

“You have the ability to save him.

“Why not? Why? Why?”

At this moment, Situ Cangyue hated Lin Fengting very much. It was unreasonable, and she didn’t want to reason with him.

She hated everyone who had the ability to help Li Tianlan but just stood by and watched.

“Governor, you’ve done enough tonight. Next, you should have a good rest. But Tianlan hasn’t done anything yet,” Lin Fengting whispered.

“He’s still a child!” Situ Cangyue said word by word.

Her voice was hoarse, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. She stared into Lin Fengting’s eyes and asked, “What can he do now?”

“He can’t kill anyone.”

Lin Fengting was silent for a moment, and then said slowly, “But at least he can promise that he won’t retreat.”

In front of them were five Invincible Realm experts, huge waves, endless mountains, fierce wind, and heavy rain, as well as thunder and lightning.

But Li Tianlan couldn’t retreat.

Because behind him was the real abyss. It was as silent as the Everlasting Night.

“Tonight’s matter is not something we can intervene in.”

Lin Fengting patted Situ Cangyue’s hand and said calmly, “It’s the Li family’s own business.”

He wouldn’t make a move.

Because he had promised Qin Weibai that he would hide a sword stroke.

It was the sword at its peak.

The Snowdance Corps was also watching the battle on the screen.

In the images, Li Tianlan was sent flying again and again. He was covered in blood, but he was still moving forward.

This had nothing to do with reason, nor was it smart or stupid.

Standing in this position, even if he would die, he could only move forward.

More and more elites of the Snowdance Corps saw this scene.

In the end, the scene was completely reflected in the square in front of the Office of the President.

The rain and wind didn’t stop.

Under the wind and rain, there was no sound.

Everyone in the Snowdance Corps was looking at this scene, and their bodies gradually tightened. Everyone stared at Li Tianlan, who was sent flying over again and again on the screen.

The summer rain in Eastern Europe was as cold as ice.

But the fire-like atmosphere rose up in silence. It rose again and again when Li Tianlan was hit again and again.

The whole Office of the President seemed to have become a real volcano, filled with a strong and crazy fighting desire and humiliation everywhere.

Lightning cut through the sky.

Thunder erupted all of a sudden.

A clear and sharp sword light suddenly flashed behind the Office of the President.

The sword light went all the way to the north.

In the northern battlefield.

Everyone subconsciously glanced at the sword light.

The sword light was so clear and so quiet.

It was the sword of Jade Pool.

In the blink of an eye, the entire Snowdance Corps seemed to have been completely ignited by this sword light.

There were no high-level members in the Snowdance Corps.

However, countless angry roars rang out at the same time.

The God-demon-like roar shook the heaven and the earth and resounded throughout the city.

“Kill them!!!”

“Kill them!!!”

They didn’t hesitate, and they didn’t even need to be mobilized.

Under the wind and rain, there were a lot of faces that looked a little twisted due to extreme anger.

The sound of footsteps rumbled.

They ran as fast as thunder.

At this moment, all the soldiers of the Snowdance Corps picked up their weapons and followed the sword light to the north without hesitation.

On the battlefield to the north of the Office of the President, the marshal they had sworn to follow until death was being humiliated.

Zhongzhou State.

It was in the middle of an insult.

The defense of the Office of the President was no longer important.

It didn’t matter whether they could kill a few Invincible Realm experts or not.

Even if they had to die.

They had to die on the battlefield in the north as well.

Generous and impassioned.

The Snowdance Corps, which had no high-level leaders, rushed forward under the wind, rain, and lights like a flood that could destroy everything.

Inside the Office of the President, Wang Tianzong stood in front of his window and looked outside. He was silent for a long time.

There was no Snowdance Corps here, and he had no imprisonment.

But he had never left.

With chaotic footsteps, the last few Snowdance Corps soldiers rushed over.

They suddenly stopped and looked at Wang Tianzong.

Wang Tianzong also looked at them with an indifferent expression.

The faces of the few soldiers of the Snowdance Corps were similarly cold.

They were all the most ordinary warriors, and the one with the highest rank was close to 40 years old. However, he was just a captain, whose Martial Arts cultivation had just reached the Ice-condensing Realm.

In the face of an Invincible Realm expert, the Snowdance Corps would show enough respect, as they had done in the past.

In the face of the invincible Sword Emperor, even if they were enemies, the Snowdance Corps still did not overlook him.

But at this moment, the eyes of this small group of Snowdance Corps soldiers were full of indifference and disdain when they looked at Wang Tianzong.

“Your Majesty Sword Emperor.”

The captain in the lead suddenly reached out his hand and pointed toward the north.

“More than 10 kilometers away, Marshal Li is facing five Invincible Realm experts in the Dark World alone.

“He is no match for them, but he won’t retreat.

“The Snowdance Corps also won’t be their match, but we won’t retreat either.

“Because everyone knows that if we were to retreat tonight, it would mean that Zhongzhou State is giving up Wulan State and Eastern Europe. It would indicate that they would give up too many national interests.

“Marshal Li won’t retreat, nor will we.”

He looked at Wang Tianzong and roared, “What about you? I heard that Your Majesty’s Sword Energy is able to move the air above thousands of meters. When countless people in Zhongzhou State are fighting for the interest of Zhongzhou State, as the Sword Emperor of Zhongzhou State, what the f**k are you doing?!”

Wang Tianzong narrowed his eyes and looked at the most ordinary low-level officer in the Snowdance Corps. He didn’t say anything.

The captain looked at Wang Tianzong for a while and suddenly sneered.

“Spew!”

He spat in front of Wang Tianzong’s window.

The captain turned around and left. “Bullshit Sword Emperor of Zhongzhou State.”
