Chapter 667: Still the Same Decisive Style
After speaking, Chen Moxiang didn’t wait for Lin Tian’s response and hung up the phone. She turned and walked to Mr. Geng’s office door, knocked on the door, and then went in.
Lin Tian held the phone, shook his head with a wry smile. This Miss Chen’s style of doing things was still like that, swift and decisive.
Next time, going on a mission with her?
Lin Tian didn’t think much of it, assuming it was just a joke.
The next morning, Mr. Geng appeared at a news conference.
The Yongxing Bridge incident needed an explanation.
At the press conference, Mr. Geng emphasized only two points.
First, those people from Sakula Country did not have legal status on the Celestial Dragon Continent.
Second, they were cultivators, carrying various deadly weapons. In addition to hidden weapons and knives, there was even poison. If not sealed in bottles, the river’s water would be undrinkable for a week!
Given these two points, it was sufficient to prove that these people were not civilians and were even spies; they were the ones who blew up the Yongxing Bridge!
They even did things that harmed the interests of the Celestial Dragon Continent.
Upon saying this, Mr. Geng put on a distressed expression. As if he had been deeply wronged, his face even full of anger, demanding an explanation from Sakula Country, or else they wouldn’t even think about getting the bodies of those cultivators back!
After the news conference, the video content quickly went viral online.
The nation united, demanding an explanation from the people of Sakula Country!
Due to the internet, all the information spread very fast, leading to transparency of information.
Because of information transparency, this video quickly spread to Sakula Country.
A stone thrown into the sea stirred up a thousand ripples.
Some thought this was the Celestial Dragon Continent stirring up trouble and slandering.
Others believed the event was true, that those cultivators were warriors, and their sacrifice was valuable.
As for the Sakula Country’s Parliament, they had yet to make any statement on this issue.
Because they didn’t know what to say, they had no standing in this matter, yet they needed to appease their citizens, they were very troubled!
So they could only take issue with the families of the cultivators.
Sakula Country now has three major cultivator clans.
And from the clothes worn by the dead cultivators, it could be determined they were from the Zhuge Clan.
So, early in the morning, officials went to the Zhuge Clan to meet with the clan leader, Zhuge himself.
The officials went with anger to question, initially thinking Zhuge would give him a reasonable explanation.
But he didn’t expect Zhuge to turn around and question him instead.
Zhuge has been very distressed these days; that was twenty mid-level and two high-level warriors!
These people were the backbone of the Zhuge Clan, all capable of advancing to higher realms.
But now they were all dead, became corpses, and in a foreign country!
Cultivators were already hard to train; losing more than twenty at once, the Zhuge Clan was deeply wounded.
Their status instantly dropped below the other two cultivator clans in Sakula Country, possibly even being swallowed by them in a few years.
Therefore, Zhuge was very angry. He initially thought the Sakula Country Parliament would challenge the Celestial Dragon Continent for this.
Never did he expect they’d not only swallow their anger but even come questioning loudly!
Zhuge and the officials were both in a bad mood.
Upon meeting, the two started a fierce verbal battle. You shouted louder, I shouted even louder; your insults were filthy, mine were filthier.
In the end, the official won the argument.
Because he represented the Parliament, the entire Sakula Country. Zhuge was just a mere clan; how could an arm wrestle with a thigh?
So, Zhuge lost, lost miserably.
After the official left, Zhuge made an international call, dialing to the person in charge at the Celestial Dragon Continent, Qingchuan.
This was already the eighth call he had made to Qingchuan in recent days, for just one thing, scolding!
Cursed his ancestors for eighteen generations, leaving Qingchuan with a headful of blood from the scolding.
For this, Qingchuan also felt aggrieved. Because, in this matter... he himself was quite bewildered.
The root of the issue was still because of that bastard Lin Tian.
He was initially forced back to Sakula Country by Lin Tian, recently broke through to the high martial level, and returned to the Celestial Dragon Continent with family experts for revenge!
After arriving at the Celestial Dragon Continent, Qingchuan first contacted an old friend he had cooperated with before, Xiaogang!
After hiding on the Celestial Dragon Continent, Bai Wuchang came to him, forming an alliance with Qingchuan using his formidable strength. There was also a very important reason, they both wanted to trouble Lin Tian!
Which was naturally first brought up by Bai Wuchang.
The reason was simple: devise an ambush for Lin Tian, and then take his life.
Qingchuan wasn’t initially agreeable, but after hearing Bai Wuchang’s detailed plan, he agreed and sent over twenty mid-level and two high-level warriors.
As for why it was at Yongxing Bridge, it was because the water there was advantageous, and the environment was very beneficial for those cultivators.
Qingchuan didn’t go because he still had something very important to do.
But he didn’t expect that those twenty-plus experts wouldn’t return, and the plan was delayed.
So, even though Zhuge cursed him furiously, he dared not retort, only able to vent all his anger on Bai Wuchang.
He even had the urge to kill him.
Now, Bai Wuchang no longer had Black Impermanence’s protection. Even if capable, could he defeat the cultivators?
But frustratingly, Bai Wuchang couldn’t be killed yet.
Qingchuan had to admit that this guy’s brain was indeed useful. Occasionally coming up with an idea, he could still serve as a cog in their plans, especially since there was still a big operation coming up.
...
"Lin Tian, how is Qingcheng now?" Yan Xinrou asked, looking at her daughter’s face.
Lin Tian sighed silently in his heart and comforted, "Qingcheng’s condition is much better than a few days ago; she is out of life-threatening danger. However, her body is still weak and needs to rest for a while longer. But don’t worry, the medicine to treat this illness will be here soon."
Hearing Lin Tian’s words, Yan Xinrou was still a bit unsettled. She tilted her head to look at her daughter.
At this time, Liou Qingcheng’s face had regained some color. Also, she would wake up every day, only staying conscious for about a minute before falling back asleep.
During her coma, she couldn’t eat, so they could only provide her with nutrient solutions, then wait for her to wake up to eat some digestible liquid food.
But this clearly wasn’t a long-term solution, and every time Yan Xinrou saw her in this state, she couldn’t be happy and would even secretly wipe her tears. As a man, Liou Zhengming was somewhat stronger, but the sadness made him lose his appetite; he might even lose some weight...
For this, Yan Xinrou handed her work over to her subordinates, devoting herself entirely to taking care of her daughter.
Additionally, there was the ’Rose’ scar on Liou Qingcheng’s right cheek, which had been treated by the doctor and had formed a scab.
But looking at it, it still ruined her original beauty; she might cry herself to death if she saw herself like this.
Thinking of Liou Qingcheng’s distressed appearance, Lin Tian couldn’t help but want to find Bai Wuchang immediately and use every means possible to make his life worse than death!
