The King of Special Warfare

Chapter 316 Uncle Li Planted a Plum Tree

The secret meeting ended in discord with ill feelings.

Wang Tianzong did not get what he wanted, but he had a cleared confirmation of the hostility between the Samsara Palace and the Wang family of Beihai.

Qin Weibai had left.

However, her voice seemed to reverberate in the World Palace, the ancient and solemn space.

“You should fall in hell forever!” She said smoothly and flatly, without gnashing teeth or hysteria, just like talking about one of the most common things.

...

...

It was so calm.

The extreme calmness could be complete madness!

Wang Tianzong could feel the resoluteness behind the calmness.

That was hatred.

That was unrelenting hatred.

The calmer she was, the more intense he felt.

Wang Tianzong was a little annoyed and even had the intention to kill.

However, he still did not stop Qin Weibai from leaving.

Standing in front of the World Palace, he saw Qin Weibai with a graceful bearing getting in and Flaming Fire start the car.

The black Mercedes-Benz retreated in the silent night, went far away, downhill, and became a tiny red dot, more and more blurred.

Wang Tianzong stood still.

He was thinking.

He was thinking about every detail of the meeting that night.

Although they had said a lot that time, it was not long.

Wang Tianzong thought for a long time, which was even longer than the time of the meeting.

The wind rose on Mount Dibing near the late night.

As the wind with salt and a fishy taste of the deep sea blew over, the depressing weather slightly withdrew. The flowers and trees in front of the World Palace moved with the wind.

Wang Tianzong recalled the conversation and gradually calmed down.

He would not let anything influence his judgment and make any decisions when he was upset.

Most of the conversation began to fade from his mind.

Wang Tianzong’s eyes became deep again.

There was a plum tree in front of the World Palace. It was not tall and straight, but its branches and trunks were dark green.

The plum tree was Black Amber cultivated by the Star State. It generally matured in late July and tasted sweet.

It was the only tree in front of the World Palace. Being planted among flowers and trees, it was like a crane in a flock of chickens.

Wang Tianzong walked out of the main palace, looked at the plum tree, with no expression and a word.

The wind got heavier.

The wind died down a bit.

The lights on Mount Dibing were gradually turned off.

Thunder rumbled on the starless sky.

The World Palace was silent.

Standing in front of the plum tree, Wang Tianzong was silent like a statue.

“It’s going to rain,” A clear voice suddenly rang out behind him.

...

Summer Solstice approached Wang Tianzong and looked at her husband lively and anxiously, “Why don’t we go back first?”

Wang Tianzong shook his head and was still thinking.

“It was not a pleasant conversation?” Summer Solstice asked.

...

Wang Tianzong replied and said with a smile, “It’s worse than the conversation. I shouldn’t have invited her. It doesn’t make sense.”

He never minded telling his wife the general trend of the Dark World and his own plans.

Summer Solstice was lively and pure, and even a little ignorant. She never put things about the Dark World in mind. Wang Tianzong did not expect his wife to analyze for him.

He said it.

She listened to it.

She forgot it.

That was enough.

“The Samsara Palace...”

Summer Solstice frowned. She was simple, but she was not heartless. Wang Tianzong was more silent during that period of time. She saw that and vaguely knew the reason.

She was also puzzled about that.

“Why does the Samsara Palace put so much pressure on you?” Summer Solstice asked.

...

“It’s because of the Samsara Palace’s master.”

Wang Tianzong’s eyes were deep and gloomy.

Summer Solstice knew the Master of the Samsara Palace.

It was not because the Master of the Samsara Palace had defeated Gu Xingyun, but the woman brought 12 Super Masters of the Samsara to go up Mount Dibing and escape unscathed.

“Is she strong?”

Summer Solstice’s eyes were full of doubt.

Wang Tianzong paused for a while as if he were thinking the question he should have known.

How about the Master of Samsara Palace’s combat capability?

“No.”

Wang Tianzong thought about it and shook his head, “But she’s strong.”

Summer Solstice quietly looked at Wang Tianzong.

Ranking at the No. 1 of the Divine List, he did not think the Samsara Palace’s master was strong, though she ranked very high in the Divine List.

“In terms of combat capability, the Master of Samsara Palace should not be matched with Gu Xingyun.”

Wang Tianzong said, “Three years ago, Gu Xingyun lost due to carelessness. He did not expect that the Master of Samsara Palace used the Tenth Unique Domain of Kunlun City. If they meet again, Gu Xingyun will win. Although he will pay through the nose, he is stronger than the Master of Samsara Palace.”

“So...”

Summer Solstice opened her mouth.

Gu Xingyun was a little stronger than the Master of Samsara Palace.

Therefore, even if he defeated her, he would pay a high price.

Wang Tianzong was stronger than Gu Xingyun.

Summer Solstice did not think that her husband would pay a price if he defeated Gu Xingyun.

The difference between No. 1 and No. 5 on the Divine List seemed small, but they were quite different.

Kunlun City and the Wang family of Beihai coexisted in the Zhongzhou State, not because the strength of their martial arts stood as equal to those of the Wang family of Beihai, but because of the general trend, politics, tactics, balance, and many things.

Among the superpowers, the strength of the leader was vital, but it was not critical to their life and death. Otherwise, the Wang family of Beihai would have ruled the world.

However, the Samsara Palace was different.

The Samsara Palace developed so fast, but they still had no foundation and background.

The Master of Samsara Palace was everything.

Once she died, the Samsara would be completely destroyed.

If the Master of Samsara Palace was slightly inferior to Gu Xingyun, why did Wang Tianzong pay so much attention to her?

“Considering victory or defeat, it’s true,” Wang Tianzong said.

He remembered the sword stroke that the Master of Samsara Palace had not launched after ascending Mount Dibing.

“Her strength is not in her comprehensive capability, but that sword stroke!”

Wang Tianzong narrowed his eyes and they were cold.

Any master had the means to fight back in desperation.

However, the Master of Samsara Palace’s stroke gave Wang Tianzong a totally different feeling.

Her comprehensive capability was not at the top, but he felt a mortal threat from that stroke.

It was a fierce sword stroke that ignored life.

Once she used the move, the Master of Samsara Palace would definitely die. However, Wang Tianzong did not think that he could take it in perfect condition.

He would be seriously injured.

It was an absolute serious injury!

The sword stroke was the key for the Master of Samsara Palace’s rise to the top of the Divine List.

She was not strong, but she was also strong.

“It is for this reason?”

Summer Solstice’s eyes were full of doubt.

“This is a reason.”

Wang Tianzong whispered, “The main reason is that she is a madwoman.”

An extreme and crazy woman controlled the sword stroke so that anyone would fear and value it.

Qin Weibai said that even if the Samsara Palace could not hold, it would also surprise everyone.

Wang Tianzong had no doubt of that.

Only that sword stroke would be enough to surprise everyone.

Wang Tianzong took a deep breath and smoked a cigarette.

The ring of a phone call suddenly sounded.

It came off as a bit harsh in the silent night.

Wang Tianzong took out the phone and found it was a call from Firmament.

He was an expert of the Half-step Invincible Realm of the Wang family of Beihai.

Even in the chaos of the Dark World, he seldom launched attacks. Only a few core figures of the Wang family of Beihai knew that Firmament had led some elites and entered the Snow Country more than a year ago.

Wang Tianzong answered the phone.

“Your Majesty.”

Firmament went straight to the point. With a little tired and troubled sound, he whispered, “I got the news that the Vladimir family has been exterminated.”

Upon hearing the news, Wang Tianzong’s hands could not help shaking.

...

In the language of Snow Country, Vladimir meant to own the world.

The Vladimir family never owned the world, but it owned Snow Country to a certain extent.

It was one of the six magnates in the Snow Country. Every prominent figure of the Vladimir family held a relevant post or called the wind and summoned the rain in different fields. But just then, news from Firmament talked of their demise!

Not only the clan leader was killed, the whole family was exterminated.

...

He was afraid that the entire country would be in total disarray before morning because such a deep-rooted oligarch family disappeared from the Snow Country.

“Who did it?” Wang Tianzong asked softly.

...

“From all the current clues, it may be the Polar Ground Alliance. It seems to be the civil strife of the Polar Ground Alliance, but it’s too exaggerated,” Firmament said with a forced smile.

...

Wang Tianzong was silent.

It was exaggerated that the civil strife of the Polar Ground Alliance caused the extermination of the Vladimir family.

Even in the Polar Ground Alliance, the Vladimir family was one of the most central components and occupied a certain position in the alliance. If it were only a civil strife, the clan leader would be substituted at most. However, the entire family was exterminated. It was enough to shake the foundation of the Polar Ground Alliance. Any part of the civil strife would not do this.

The dominator of the Polar Ground Alliance had the code-name Tyrant.

Being ranked No. 7 on the new Divine List, he was a tyrant but not a fool.

“The Samsara Palace took action.” Wang Tianzong said in a low voice.

...

He had no evidence to prove that the Samsara Palace had taken action.

However, some movements in the Snow Country during the past three years could be enough to support his speculation.

Three years ago, he invited Tyrant to visit the Wang family of Beihai.

Tyrant arrived as scheduled.

Wang Tianzong had reminded him of the Samsara Palace, but Tyrant spent his energy on the civil strife of the Polar Ground Alliance.

In three years, the Polar Ground Alliance’s civil strife was ceaseless, but it was under control.

The first Tusk that the Samsara Palace showed was to exterminate the Vladimir family.

In the Dark World, that would be the clearest signal, because it meant that the civil strife of the Polar Ground Alliance had been out of control and the lands of the Polar Ground Alliance were in danger.

...

...

If the Polar Ground Alliance completely collapsed, who would be the Dark World’s new king in the entire Snow Country and even the East European?

At the very least, in an uncertain situation, any superpower had hope.

Wang Tianzong was breathing slightly faster.

He did not even think about the next scene.

Nobody wanted to give up such a big benefit.

The Dark World was chaotic. But currently, the Polar Ground Alliance was hanging by a thread. And, the chaos of the Dark World would stop. Instead, everyone had a reason to fight to the death.

The entire Snow Country would also become the battlefield of all the forces in the Dark World!

Wang Tianzong could not stop all this.

It was impossible for him to be unwilling to get involved.

Snow Country was close to the Beihai Province.

All the superpowers fought in the Snow Country, which was definitely a threat to the Wang family of Beihai.

More importantly, all the superpowers thought that the Wang family of Beihai, which was close to the Snow Country, was also a threat to them.

Wang Tianzong suddenly realized that the Wang family of Beihai was in an urgent situation.

He still had a lot of things to do.

Li Honghe was not dead.

Li Tianlan was not dead.

The cooperation with Kunlun City had not begun.

Snow Country, the largest country in the world, had turned into a battlefield.

If that were the goal of the Samsara Palace, all those things would not be merely coincidences.

Wang Tianzong lit a cigarette and puffed at it.

In the chaos, his eyes were calmer than usual.

They were cold and sensible without any emotions.

“I got it.”

He held the cell phone, “I’d rather stand out than wait and see. I’ll send someone over. When I settle things in the Zhongzhou State, I will go there personally.”

“All right.”

Firmament sounded excited.

Wang Tianzong’s eyes became calm and determined.

Wang Tianzong hung up and looked at the plum tree in front of him.

In early July.

The tree was full of fruit. Although the fruit is not fully ripe, it had turned into rich purple.

Wang Tianzong reached out and picked a plum, wiped it, and put it in his mouth.

The green fruit was a little sour.

Wang Tianzong ate seriously and ate all the bitterness into his stomach.

“It’s sour.” He said a word and threw away the kernel.

...

He moved gently.

However, the trajectory of the kernel was as straight as a line and instantly penetrated the fruit tree.

There was no sword intent in front of the World Palace.

The dense fruit tree suddenly cracked, and branches, trunk, roots, and everything rose to the sky.

The breeze blew away.

The disordered tree disappeared quietly.

A deep hole on the ground became the only trace of the fruit tree.

In a daze, Summer Solstice saw the plum tree turn to ashes.

She still remembered the scene when the fruit tree was planted in front of the World Palace.

At that time, she was still a child.

Wang Tianzong was also a child.

Li Kuangtu was also a child.

At that time, Li Honghe was still the War God of the Zhongzhou State and Uncle Li for all the children.

That was spring.

Uncle Li, Uncle Wang, and several top figures of the Wang family of Beihai discussed official business in the World Palace.

As children, Wang Tianzong and Summer Solstice were playing in front of the palace.

Wang Tianzong held a fruit and took a bite.

He said, “It’s sour.”

Then, he threw it out to the entrance of the World Palace.

Uncle Li walked out of the door and caught the fruit thrown by Wang Tianzong.

There was one more plum tree in front of the World Palace.

Uncle Li planted the plum tree.

In the past few years, except the name carved on the Stone of Formidable Person, of the Stage of Formidable Person, the plum tree was the last trace left by Li Honghe on Mount Dibing.

That trace or brotherhood had been destroyed by sword intent and became nothingness.

The plum tree was gone.

Uncle Li did not seem to exist anymore.

Summer Solstice’s eyes were a little sad.

Wang Tianzong, who was calm, turned around and reached out to rub her hair, “Go to sleep first. I’ll go to the lab and then go downhill.”

“Go downhill?”

Summer Solstice’s body trembled.

“Go to Kunlun first, and then to Lin’an.” Wang Tianzong said quietly.

...

There was little time left.

He was already determined, so he did not want to delay.

Summer Solstice was silent. She wished to speak but stopped on second thought.

The Samsara Palace, Lin’an, Li Tianlan, and Snow Country...

Great changes had taken place in the Dark World.

Even Wang Tianzong seemed to have no confidence that time.

Otherwise, he would not have to go to the lab to extract the Immortality Potion.

At the crucial moment, it would consume Wang Tianzong’s life.

“Be careful. I’m waiting for you at home.”

Summer Solstice whispered with a little anxiety in her eyes.

“Don’t worry.”

Wang Tianzong said with a smile, “When I come back, nothing will happen.”

He walked past Summer Solstice.

He went past the pit where the plum was planted.

Wang Tianzong stepped over.

The Sword Qi all over the sky suddenly fell from the top and penetrated the surface.

The hard ground began to tremble; the pit expanded rapidly; the ground collapsed and turned into a round hole with a radius of tens of meters.

Water came out of the bottom of the pit.

It looked like a small pond.

All traces of the plum tree had completely disappeared.

“Plant some lotus.”

Wang Tianzong said, “I can eat the lotus-nuts sweet soup you make next year.”

...

Wang Tianzong had been in the lab until late at night.

When he left the lab, he had an extra crystal pendant around his neck.

The pendant was crystal clear and weirdly shaped like a small whistle. A few drops of deep purple liquid flew slowly in the whistle, which were dazzling.

He returned to the World Palace again.

Summer Solstice had left.

The water was shining even more in the small pond, compared to when he had left.

Wang Tianzong took a casual look and went into the World Palace again.

The door slowly closed behind him.

It was dark inside the palace.

Wang Tianzong did not turn on the light but stepped into the depth of the palace in the darkness.

He walked up the steps and returned to the white jade throne that symbolized the supreme power of the Wang family of Beihai.

He looked cautious.

He touched an imperceptible mechanism behind the chair.

The white jade throne began to move forward.

It was soundless.

A hidden passage was exposed below the throne.

Wang Tianzong went in calmly.

The throne closed again with a crack.

The light was on in the hidden passage.

The light was dim.

Wang Tianzong walked for a long time in the hidden passage, and a bronze door appeared in front of him.

The bronze door looked gloomy in the light.

Two doors and two badges.

Two badges of the Wang family of Beihai Firmament and Sea were carved on the left door panel.

Some lines were carved disorderly on the right door panel.

The seemingly irregular lines were cold and strange. The lines centralized and formed an outline.

There were two irregular rhombuses above the outline like a pair of eyes.

The eyes of the devil.

The left eye represented peace while the right eye represented destruction.

Wang Tianzong reached out his hand and touched the left eye.

The center of the panel sank and a screen appeared.

Wang Tianzong entered the password.

The screen shined and swept through Wang Tianzong. The bronze door opened to the sides with a crack.

A bitter coldness was overwhelming as it had an outlet.

A narrow and dark passage was behind the door, but it was extremely cold and dry.

Wang Tianzong walked along the passage for a long time before he came to another door.

The same program.

The second door opened.

The world inside the door was an ultra-cold hall, nearly minus 50 degrees.

Wang Tianzong’s breath was filled with white icing air.

He quietly glanced at the hall in front of him.

The hall was great.

Freezing coffins were the only things in the hall.

A total of hundreds of freezing coffins lined up in rows.

However, most of them were empty at the moment. Only in a few coffins, figures lay there as if asleep.

The hall should be at tens of meters below the Stage of Formidable Person of the Wang family of Beihai.

The figures were the most hidden power of the Wang family of Beihai.

Devil Troop!

Wang Tianzong stood in front of the door.

There was a row of buttons in front of the door, like switches.

Wang Tianzong reached out a hand and gently touched a button in front of him.

At a low temperature, his mind became calmer.

To extract and purify the Immortality Potion.

To awaken the Devil Troop that had never appeared.

They were all for coping with the ensuing chaotic world.

If he had convinced Qin Weibai, he would not need to do so.

However, Qin Weibai refused him.

She hated the Wang family of Beihai.

Wang Tianzong frowned because of Dongcheng Huangtu and past events.

He looked at the button in front of him and said to himself with a blank expression, “Who is Dongcheng Huangtu?”

He pressed down the button.

The button gently vibrated.

A buzzing ultrasonic wave that ordinary people could not hear was emitted in the hall.

The sound wave swept the hall.

Several freezing coffins nearest Wang Tianzong were surrounded by special and specific wave bands.

It was quiet.

In the freezing coffins, figures that seemed to be sleeping opened their eyes.

They lifted up their stiff hands and spread the freezing coffins open with both hands.

The figures in freezing coffins sat up with flake ice.

Everyone looked at Wang Tianzong silently.

The picture was strange and horrifying.

Wang Tianzong passed by the freezing coffins in front of him.

The corresponding start-up passwords sounded in the hall, steady and clear.

“Silence. Shadow. Torrent. Autumn Water. Amber. Choppy Sea. Peaceful Lake. Doomsday. Slaughter. Legend Sword. Divine Punishment. Death.”

Wang Tianzong’s clear sound kept echoing in the hall. The Devil Troop was one of the most mysterious foundations of the Beihai Troop. After being transformed, every warrior had to come back here to sleep.

They were powerful beyond comparison.

However, the power was so formidable that their bodies were on the verge of collapse.

Most of the time, they fell asleep at the lowest temperature. Being different from the Terracotta Warriors of the Zhongzhou State and the Kusanagi Force of East Island, they were powerful in combat capability. However, they could not be exposed for a long time because they could not control their formidable power.

Thus, the Terracotta Warriors and the Kusanagi Force became super transformed warriors that they could be awakened with passwords and could be reused at any time.

However, the Devil Troop became the foundation of the Wang family of Beihai, as well as the cruelest and the most luxurious... Consumables!

Wang Tianzong looked at the figures sitting up from the freezing coffins, uttering the last password with a peaceful mood.

“Exterminate.”

Twelve passwords.

Twelve bodies shook at the same time.

It was still silent.

Everyone was looking at Wang Tianzong.

“Password... correct.”

Some device sounded. They seemed to have been sleeping for too long so that they were a little slow at the moment. “What’s the matter?”

“Everyone, please go to Snow Country.” Wang Tianzong said with a calm tone.

...

All of a sudden, a thunderclap sounded over the Beihai Province.

Mount Dibing echoed with the thunderclap, and a loud noise penetrated the underground. The long-simmering rain poured down wildly, which provoked huge waves and smashed onto Mount Dibing. In the Devil Hall tens of meters underground, there was only a raging tide voice except for a dull thunderclap.

The tide was endless.

The stiff and dull voice sounded again, “Let... us...go...”

They were the most extravagant consumables of the Wang family of Beihai.

From the moment they were awakened, they could not change their fate.

Twelve people went out of their freezing coffins in sequence and walked to the hall exit.

Wang Tianzong bowed deeply behind them.

In the loud tide voice, his voice spread in the hall, which was calm and respectful.

“Junior of the Wang family of Beihai, Wang Tianzong, sends off all the seniors.”
