Chapter 196 - Day One · The Beginning of an Era

Chapter 196 Day One · The Beginning of an Era
Everything seemed to be unstoppable now.
This was Li Tianlan’s sudden thought.
Things seemed to be changing all the time in the Dark World. When in the storm, Li Tianlan had a feeling that if Zhongzhou State starting the fight with East Island at the beginning was an accident, then the arrangement after the accident was full of artificial traces.
When things had reached this stage, Li Tianlan couldn’t confirm whether the situation was out of Zhongzhou State’s control. But in the general trend, he could see there was an occasionally visible black hand pushing everything forward.
Samsara had left.
All the superpowers had entered Changdao.
Even Mount Shu and Eastern Theater of Operations were active in something.
And every step of the current currency war seemed to be in the control of the black hand, and everything was always on the designated trail.
And as time passed by, everything happening right now seemed to come to an end.
In seven days.
When time passed, what would happen to Zhongzhou State, East Island and all the superpowers in the Dark World?
Li Tianlan thought about it quietly. At this moment, he felt very complicated. Standing at a high place with low strength had given him a broad vision to observe the general trend, but it also made him feel bad.
He could clearly felt that something was changing slowly, but he couldn’t do anything about it, so he felt upset.
He was standing at a very high place, but not high enough to pass through the storm, so he felt repressed.

If I could be invincible…

Li Tianlan laughed in a self-mocking way, looked at Tribulation in front of him, nodded, and said,
I got it.

At this moment, his face looked calm and determined, as if it could press everything down.
But when all the repressed feelings broke out, how scary would that be?
He took a deep breath and tried to hide all his feelings, then suddenly said,
And who are the two of you?

The two black figures that followed Tribulation here were a man and a woman. The woman looked a bit younger in her thirties, and she had a curvy body and fine skin. She was wearing a set of black, loose clothing with no makeup on, fresh and yet mysterious and enchanting, like a black rose. She looked weird at first glance, but charming when observed carefully.
The man next to the woman looked old and experienced. He had a beard and a tall, thin body. His average face looked soft and calm. When they didn’t talk, they just stood next to Tribulation like two black and vague shadows, as if they didn’t really exist.
But Li Tianlan could clearly sense danger in them. That faint, vague feeling made him instinctively cautious, and even his body got into defense state subconsciously.
Killers!
This was Li Tianlan’s first impression of them.
Killers that didn’t show their aura or killing intent were undoubtedly the best ones.

I’m Deep Dream.

Before Tribulation started to introduce, the woman on his left had already bowed down slightly. She was in a low position, but her movement showed her elegance and pride.
Her voice was crisp, cold and breathtakingly tender.

I’m Sunset Shadow.

The middle-aged man on the right side of Tribulation laughed in a free and careless way, with the coldness and forthrightness after being attacked by the snow storm. His voice wasn’t very loud, but it was very clear and had strong penetrating power.
In Li Tianlan’s slightly squinted eyes, Deep Dream and Sunset Shadow bowed down at the same time and said calmly,
We’re here to greet the Young Master.

Young Master!
Xu Chu aside changed his face rapidly.
Dongcheng Yueshen, who also just got into the villa, froze after seeing this.
Only Li Tianlan’s face still looked calm.
He had kept all his feelings locked deep in his heart, so he could be calm and restrained all the time.

Young Master…

He mumbled to himself, then nodded and repeated.
Emm, Young Master…


From now on, you are the Young Governor of Sigh City. In the future, there will always be a spot for you in Mount Taibai.

Tribulation looked at Li Tianlan in front of him, who was calm like a deep ocean, and said in a determined tone,
No matter what!

Li Tianlan lifted up his head and looked at Tribulation.
Tribulation was wearing black clothes. The silver mask covered up all his expression, but his eyes were glowing with cold and bright light.
No matter what.
The meaning of these three words seemed to be more complicated than the title of the Young Governor of Sigh City.
A lot more complicated.
From Qin Weibai’s man to the Young Governor of Sigh City.
From a strange young Heavenly Son to the successor of the Li family.
Especially the former change, a celebrated private identity with too much ambiguous vibe was turned into an official position that could not be ignored.
It was not that Li Tianlan couldn’t get used to it, but he didn’t know where to start and didn’t want to get used to this change.
It was still a cloud of mist in front of him, but there was already a slightly clearer figure in the mist.

Why?

Li Tianlan asked suddenly.
It was an inexplicable question, but he knew Tribulation could get what he meant.

I don’t know.

Tribulation wasn’t confused, but he didn’t give him an exact answer.

Still too weak.

With a self-deprecating smile, Li Tianlan said,
Too weak.


Do you regret it?

Tribulation looked at Li Tianlan and asked. Li Tianlan actually had very strong strength. If he hadn’t chosen to practice again, he could have been an important figure in the battle of Changdao with his Thunder-shocking Realm strength as well as Wind and Thunder Veins. No one could ignore him, like Wang Shengxiao right now.
Tribulation couldn’t tell Li Tianlan why, but he knew that if Li Tianlan hadn’t practiced again, this period of training time could have been enough for Li Tianlan to take a step forward in the Thunder-shocking Realm, and he could even have reached the stabilization phase.
If Li Tianlan hadn’t practiced again, everything would have been a different plan now.

No, I don’t.

Li Tianlan shook his head and said softly,
It’s just hard for me to accept.

Tribulation stayed quiet for a while, then patted Li Tianlan’s shoulder and said blandly,
Time will prove everything.

Li Tianlan laughed and said,
I’ll go and change my clothes, then we head for the meeting.

Tribulation nodded and watched Li Tianlan enter the villa again.
He walked so quietly that no one noticed that his heart had already been twisted.
It was the sharpest pain and the biggest confusion.
He understood everything when he heard the Young Governor of Sigh City.
Something wasn’t just leaving him; they were forcefully taken away from him.
Completely, utterly taken away from him.
Li Tianlan didn’t know what would happen in the future, but he could feel that he wouldn’t get back what had been taken away from him for a very long time.
After just a short while, Li Tianlan appeared again.
His face still looked calm, and he was already in a new set of clothing: black suit, black tie, and white shirt.
Li Tianlan, who dressed formally like this for the first time, adapted himself to it really well. The neat, tidy black suit made him look a bit dashing. Sharpness started to show in his calm, soft eyes.

Let’s go.

Li Tianlan walked over to Tribulation and said,
Xu Chu and Rushi are coming with me.

Tribulation nodded, then took out a badge with the shape of a willow leaf from his clothes and pinned it on Li Tianlan’s chest.
The badge had a beautiful outline and was black. But in the middle, there was a thin, bright white line running through the whole willow leaf.
It was like the first beam of light in the dark, unexpected and dazzling.

This is the badge of Sigh City. I should have given you earlier, but it’s not too late now.

Tribulation personally pinned the badge for Li Tianlan and said softly.
Li Tianlan pressed his lips together hard and nodded.
The badge was pinned on Li Tianlan’s chest. That willow leaf seemed to be extra heavy, and its strong force hit his heart. He heard the sound of something being cut off from him again, and it was irresistible. Li Tianlan instinctively gritted his teeth and straightened his body.
At this moment, everyone could feel Li Tianlan’s coldness and calmness.
He seemed like repressing something or enduring something.
The morning sun became the burning sun, and the sky was blue and empty.
The storm had stopped, but it might come back again. In the hot, oppressive air, Li Tianlan walked out of the shady, cool yard and headed to the venue.
The Lord of Shadow in the Dark World, Tribulation, was next to him.
Deep Dream and Sunset Shadow, the pair of top-notch assassins that became increasingly capable of representing Sigh City were around him.
Dongcheng Rushi and Xu Chu, the young geniuses that had started to be famous, were also around him.
And in the venue in front, there were Ning Qiancheng and Li Baitian, who were also his brothers.
Under the sunlight that got in the car through the window, Li Tianlan’s eyes had never looked so cold and determined before.
The venue was located on a hill to the south side of the club. The hill had a moderate height. The conference room that looked like a palace was on the top of the hill. It was full of ancient traces that told people how old it was. When Li Tianlan and the rest arrived, people were getting in and out through the wide door of the conference room. So it seemed Li Tianlan’s original assumption was wrong. At least a lot of people were able to attend the meeting, but only a few people had the decision-making power.
Li Tianlan opened the door and got off the car, then walked to the door of the conference room without stopping or looking at the scenery around the hill.
Tribulation or Deep Dream, Sunset Shadow or Xu Chu, all consciously kept some distance from Li Tianlan, circling him around while moving forward with him. Only Dongcheng Yueshen was naturally linking arms with Li Tianlan and walking next to him.
Outside the door, more and more people started to gather, watching Li Tianlan and the top-notch assassins from Sigh City behind him, with complicated expressions in their eyes.
Li Tianlan ignored them all. He just walked straight into the door of the venue at a steady pace.
Almost at the same time, another group of people walked into the conference room. The moment they faced each other, the air froze.
Duke walked in front with Horsewoman and Flaming Fire next to him.
Duke looked at Li Tianlan with a cold face.
Li Tianlan had no expression on his face.
There seemed to be hostility between the two parties that were supposed to be allies.
Inside the conference room, there was a round space where the leather seats circled around layer by layer and formed many standard circles. The circle on the outside was the biggest and could seat most people. There were fewer and fewer seats as one walked in the middle.
People’s status could be shown through the seat they sat on. The closer they got to the middle, the more important they were.
Li Tianlan’s gaze ran around the room, and then he moved straight forward.
He was still walking in a straight line.
Samsara Palace and Sigh City were getting closer and closer to each other.
Everyone noticed that. They all lifted their heads and watched them in silence.
Duke stood still.
Li Tianlan moved forward.
Seven meters left.
Five meters left.
Three meters left.
Li Tianlan didn’t change his direction and just moved straight forward.
When their bodies were about to crash into each other, there seemed to be a sigh in the air. Duke quietly gave way to him and stepped aside.
Li Tianlan walked over quietly. He didn’t stop or turn around.
Under the bright lights in the conference room, Li Tianlan, who was in a black suit, walked through the circles and moved straight to the middle area of the venue.
There were two people that caught his attention: Wang Shengxiao who represented the Wang family of Beihai and Gu Hanshan who represented Kunlun City.
And he represented Sigh City!
In the silence, only the footsteps of Li Tianlan and his team echoed in the venue.
The soft light lit up the whole room. At this moment, Li Tianlan was still walking steadily, but the majestic and sharp aura started to show on him.
No one tried to stop Li Tianlan.
No one tried to raise any objection.
Today in Changdao, under the silent gazes of countless special warfare elites of Zhongzhou State, Li Tianlan walked into this conference room that represented power, status, and responsibility, and finally seated himself in the center.
There were a lot of people near him, but there were only two young people.
Wang Shengxiao.
Gu Hanshan.
He appeared in splendid attire.
Li Tianlan stood on the ground, and his face looked calmer and calmer.
The era was right under his feet. As time passed by, today was only the beginning.
