C378 On the Eve of the South Road Conference
C378 On the Eve of the South Road Conference
I didn't do anything, but asked myself from the bottom of my heart, are we really going to end this way?
The scar had indeed remained in my heart, a wound that would never be healed.
The question was, was this scar important?
It was important, and I cared, but after so long, my thoughts were no longer what they used to be.
Sighing lightly, I slowly start the car, step on the accelerator and drive away. I think that the real end is leaving, not unraveling this scar. Whether Ling Xiaoxiao has let me down or not, this is already a thing of the past.
Driving the 45 million yuan Veneno by myself, I left the village in the city and returned to the city road. I felt an indescribable regret in my heart.
"Memories always have regrets." I comforted myself and continued to walk in the direction of Yian Corporation in the dark night. The distance between me and Ling Xiaoxiao became further and further away. The village in the city that was reflected in the rearview mirror became smaller and smaller.
"It's over. I probably won't see you again." I pressed down the window, and a gust of cold air hit me.
Once, I loved Ling Xiaoxiao madly, willing to give up everything for her.
Later, the love and hatred, left a wound in the heart.
Now, I have chosen to leave and completely cut off this relationship.
It was true that there was regret, but more of it came from the depths of his heart.
Ling Xiaoxiao has her strong, her pride, is absolutely not able to accept my help, I can only hope that she can pass the better.
But I didn't expect that my return to the East Tomb would actually harm Ling Xiaoxiao. I wished I could hack her into a thousand pieces!
Of course, this was all in the future.
"..."
The next day, I received two heavyweight messages from Liang Guan!
The first piece of news, was that the limelight of Pearl City had passed, Chu Wenyang changed his position and forcefully struck Heaven Sect, in just a single day, had caused his Heaven Sect to receive heavy injuries!
Even Chu Wenyang, Lei Li and the other higher ups of Heaven Sect had been captured!
This matter strongly stimulated the confidence of the entire Iron River. Especially Wang Chao, with the help of Chu Wenyang, they immediately expanded their abilities. Their first target was the Macao City!
As for Wang Chao, he probably knew that I wasn't bragging, so he felt embarrassed and didn't dare to call me anymore.
"That old thing Chu Wenyang, did he really put in a lot of effort?" I smiled over the phone.
Liang Guan said, "Only with Lee Guan's sharp skills can we be able to deal with an old fox like Chu Wenyang. If we were to deal with him, we definitely wouldn't be able to take advantage of him."
"Tell me, what's the second piece of news?" I stopped smiling.
Liang Guan hesitated for a few seconds, as if he was trying to think of a phrase, and then said: "What happened is like this. Yesterday, our Iron River received an invitation letter from the Heaven Sect. I wonder if you'll go or not, Lee Guan? "
"Southern Road Congress?" I was confused.
Liang Guan immediately explained, "Southern Road Congress, in short, it is the meeting for the Southern Wu Steel, and all these years, it was convened by the Heaven Sect, and this year is no exception, the meaning is very clear, it is to specially set up a meeting to intimidate the south, and to take the oath of sovereignty, after all, in the entire south, there is not just the Heaven Sect, there are many other powers mixed in, I suggest that you, Lee Guan, do not go, this might be a grand feast, and Heaven Sect is definitely targeted at the Iron River.
"Trapped?" Since Southern Road Congress represents the entire underground forces of the south, if he does not go, how would outsiders view Iron River? Could it be that you think I'm afraid of Heaven Sect? " I raised my eyebrows.
Liang Guan became anxious, "Lee Guan, if you go, you are in the opponent's territory. You are afraid of danger, and there are even Soong Family glaring at you. This is not appropriate."
I was not the least bit afraid. Calmly and leisurely, I said, "Don't worry, if I'm in another city and my Soong Family wants to kill me, it won't stop me."
"But something happened to me with my Southern Road Congress, when Heaven Sect killed me, it is called being unreasonable and not allowing Soong Family to act. The Heaven Sect's goal is very simple, it is nothing more than to use the Southern Road Congress, to display its might to the Iron River, and to cause the core forces to stand on the side of the Heaven Sect."
"Besides, do you really think that Heaven Sect can kill me? Don't forget Lee Qi, Heaven Sect dare to be the shield? Soong Family? "
"..."
When Liang Guan heard this, he maintained half of his approval and half of his disapproval, saying anxiously: "But, the south is still the world of Heaven Sect, there are many things that our Iron River does not count. In their territory, I'm afraid we will be controlled by others."
"Who told you it's the world under the Heaven Sect? The Heaven Sect is a place where no tigers exist and monkeys call themselves kings. All of the Heaven Sect belongs to us, so if I go this time, not only will I damage the prestige of my Heaven Sect, I'll also have to tell everyone who's the true heaven here! " After I finished my sentence, I hung up the phone and didn't give Liang Guan any chance to refute.
Liang Guan is a bit timid when it comes to doing things, so he doesn't have any big ideas. If I'm not determined, he would still be hesitant.
When I landed on the ground, I immediately called Liang Guan and the others over to my office. Regardless of the consequences, I decisively arranged for them to head over to Pengcheng in three days time.
"Yes, your subordinate has made arrangements." Liang Guan didn't dare to refute my intentions, so he could only obediently follow my orders.
When I returned to the hotel at night, Ning Hsing knew that I was going to participate in the Southern Road Congress, but she was actually angry and didn't let me go.
"You're not allowed to go!"
"You are courting death!"
"Soong Family together, do you think it's that simple? "How much do you know about the other party's goal? How can you just say that you're going?"
"If Soong Family wants to kill you, that is already a foregone conclusion. At that time, since you are already within the Heaven Sect's range, how could the other party be willing to let you go? You are like a sheep in a tiger's den! "
I sloppily sat on the sofa and looked at Ning Hsing, who insisted on not letting me go. "Your hair is too long and you don't have much knowledge. Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand."
"You bastard, I'm doing this for your own good. Don't bite off Lu Dongbin like a dog, you don't know how to appreciate a good person." Ning Hsing gritted her teeth furiously.
I hurriedly raised my hand, interrupting Ning Hsing's words, "I know that you are doing this for my own good, but think about it carefully. If you don't go, your Iron River will definitely lose out in terms of momentum, and all the central forces will be pulled to one side.
"What about Soong Family? Aren't you afraid of Soong Family? Even if Soong Family does not take action in Peng City, it might be able to make a move on the way back, or poison the wine, what kind of thing is there that cannot Soong Family? " Ning Hsing and I argued.
I twisted my neck and lowered my posture a little. I didn't want to argue with Ning Hsing anymore. After all, she did it for my own good.
So, I explained: "Ning Hsing, it's not that you don't know the seriousness of the situation, it's just that you're afraid of something happening to me, I'll handle it, don't worry, this matter is definitely going to happen anyways, Heaven Sect can't wait for me to leave. That's why I must go, I want to be exposed in front of everyone's line of sight, it's because I want them to see that I'm unhappy, yet have no way to do anything about it."
