After all, Li Tianlan neither behaved domineeringly enough to make out with w.a.n.g Yuetong and decided to think about it tomorrow, nor did he refuse the little princess’s ask of stay. As there was heavy rain outside the window and the little princess had brought her luggage, it would bring a very serious result if he drove her back at that time. He didn’t want to and also couldn’t bear to do so.
Ning Qiancheng was right. When it came to ten o’clock in the evening, there was still no signs of Li Baitian’s coming back, who had not returned to the dormitory for several days, and obviously made up his mind to continue his staying out to the end. Ning Qiancheng, who was still trying to get close touch with Yu Qingyan, had not come back, too. Everything seemed to go on quite smooth.
However, the most unlucky thing was that Yu Qingyan had come here.
Li Tianlan also did not know whether Ning Qiancheng was in tears when he stayed in the girl’s dormitory alone. Anyway, as a bystander, he felt s.h.i.+tty for Ning Qiancheng.
After dinner, w.a.n.g Yuetong turned on the light and watched TV for a while, leaning on Li Tianlan. Then she took Yu Qingyan into Li Tianlan’s bedroom to have a rest, just and honorably.
Li Tianlan had just recovered from his serious injury, so his body was full of energy. Therefore, he easily gave up sleeping but took out the paper bag received from Tribulation and studied it silently.
How valuable was the life-long martial arts essence of the First a.s.sa.s.sin in Zhongzhou State?
The First a.s.sa.s.sin was also the man that had taken the most unusual way over hundreds of years. Whoever got the martial arts essence could increase a lot. The essence was a treasure like a rare book that could absolutely lead to fights among all people if it was spread to the outside.
Li Tianlan drew out the paperwork that oppressed and warmed him, and read it silently.
A piece of handwriting appeared directly to Li Tianlan. It was not beautiful, but between the lines, there was ultimate fierceness and killing intent.
The essence Tribulation gave him was not thick, written in black and white, but Li Tianlan could clearly feel the b.l.o.o.d.y killing intent behind this piece of writing. It was not manic and hot-blooded, but a kind of cold forbearance and elegance, which could only belong to the a.s.sa.s.sins and killers.
Li Tianlan quickly calmed down in his heart and looked at the miraculous paperwork in front of him that had been described fantastic by countless people, the greatest achievements that set the stage for Tribulation’s invincibility in the future.
In a sense, it was true that Tribulation was the belief of many killers and a.s.sa.s.sins, but not entirely true.
He could become a faith because of his Martial Arts.
Because of his Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words.
Kill, Slaughter, Shadow, Destroy, Teleport, Crack, Limit, Defend, Escape.
In his Martial Arts of whole life, Tribulation had been a.s.siduous in killing intent, seeking for the strongest explosive force and attack.
Among his Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words, “Defend” focused on defense; “Shadow” and “Escape” focused on dodge; “Teleport” struggled for high speed, and “Limit” was tried to help people evolve to the domain of an Invincible Realm elite.
Apart from these five characters, there were only four characters left——”Kill”, “Slaughter”, “Destroy” and “Crack”. All the meanings behind the four characters were indomitable killing intent and fierceness.
The Invincible Realm invincible superior with their own domains, such as Gu Xingyun and Situ Cangyue, were striving for fulfillment in Martial Arts.
However, the Invincible Realm superior who had an earthshaking Martial Arts was seeking for the peak of momentum and intent means.
The two completely different roads, when summed up to Map of G.o.d of War, embodied the differences between Balance Manual and Peak Manual. Usually, Peak Manual strived for the peak of Sword Comprehension.
However, Tribulation’s Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words was seeking for the peak of killing intent.
Since many years ago, Tribulation had broken through the Pseudo Invincible Realm of Qi-controlling Realm and continuously succeeded along this road towards the Invincible Realm. So far, no one knew how far Tribulation was away from the Invincible Realm. However, as his “shadow” and Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words was becoming more and more perfect, his whole unique technique would sooner or later become one of the unique techniques of Invincible Realm.
If that day would really come, Tribulation would become the initiator to enter Invincible Realm from Qi-controlling Realm. There might be difficulties and obstacles along this road, but his success was enough to prove another road of Martial Arts. His experience of entering the Invincible Realm step by step might become the concrete step of entering Invincible Realm from Qi-controlling Realm.
What did that mean?
At present, the whole dark world had no specific explanation on how to enter the Invincible Realm from the peak of the Thunderous Realm. The feeling was too vague that people can only understand but cannot say, so it was eventually summed up in the categories of luck, chance and so on. Because of the same reason, Thunderous Realm became the peak of the four Realms in Martial Arts.
If Tribulation could manage his cultivation through another road, there was no doubt that he would definitely become a great master in the killers’ world, who would leave a far-reaching influence.
Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words had nine unique techniques.
Any a.s.sa.s.sin or killer, no matter what happened, could find the most suitable way to fight back in Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words.
Sprint, Breakthrough, Evasion, Slaughter…
It was flawless and impeccable.
Everything was almost perfect. This was the dreaming unique technique of a.s.sa.s.sins and killers. It was even not overstated to describe it as the Bible of the killers’ world.
Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes and looked even calmer.
Vaguely, he seemed to have seen the road of Tribulation, which was lurked with silence and cold a.s.sa.s.sination. However, Tribulation could still get away from it safely. He seemed to never exist, but also seemed to exist in everywhere. It was the light of the top a.s.sa.s.sins, who could blend in the crowd when quiet, but could also overstep all the beings while moving.
In front of Li Tianlan, a gate seemed to open silently, waiting for him to step in.
His eyes became brighter and brighter, while his breathing became slower and slower. His whole mind seemed to have been completely immersed in this Martial Arts essence and entered a mixed situation of thinking and meditating.
What would it be like if this bleak and strange a.s.sa.s.sin’s road once combined with the road he was taking now?
Time pa.s.sed in the dormitory with sounds gradually turning into silence.
The heavy rain that lasted for several days outside the window gradually stopped.
The dark night filled the room.
All was quiet in the dead of night.
Until the morning sun raised.
Li Tianlan had kept a posture sitting on the sofa all night long, motionlessly.
The quiet area outside the residence started to become busy gradually.
Had a nice sleep on Li Tianlan’s bed, w.a.n.g Yuetong walked out of the bedroom very pleased and saw Li Tianlan sitting on the sofa. She was slightly stunned and whispered with her eyes blinking, “Good morning, Senior Brother.”
Li Tianlan did not answer.
“You didn’t stay up all night, did you?”
w.a.n.g Yuetong then asked.
Li Tianlan remained motionless, still silently.
“Are you angry?”
w.a.n.g Yuetong chuckled and said sweetly, “If you are angry, you can sleep in your bedroom at night. I slept very well all night long yesterday.”
Li Tianlan continued to keep silent.
In the quiet living room, his breathing disappeared and his heart seemed to have stopped completely.
As she approached and noticed this scene, w.a.n.g Yuetong’s expression changed dramatically. There were no breathing and heartbeat? This was not a state that could be explained at all. Her brain suddenly went blank and held out her hand to hold Li Tianlan.
Li Tianlan’s body remained motionless. w.a.n.g Yuetong’s hand stretched to come over, going through his heart.
In a dead silence.
There was no blood gus.h.i.+ng, and he was not slumping down.
Li Tianlan was still in that gesture. w.a.n.g Yuetong’s hand stretched out as if she pa.s.sed through a virtual shadow.
w.a.n.g Yuetong turned her head suddenly.
In the line of sight, Li Tianlan’s figure appeared on the other side of the sofa, in the same posture, from beginning to end, without making any noise.
The virtual shadow beside Li Tianlan was still there, clear, real and lifelike.
At that time there were as if two Li Tianlan in the living room, which looked exactly the same.
w.a.n.g Yuetong touched the shadow in front of her, and couldn’t believe what she saw.
The palm of her hand pa.s.sed through the shadow, without stirring any ripple.
The original condensed shadow fluctuated slightly after her palm was withdrawn, and then dispersed.
w.a.n.g Yuetong was scared to death, and she immediately thought of a figure whom even their w.a.n.g family of Beihai would not dare to look down upon.
Tribulation.
In w.a.n.g family of Beihai, her father w.a.n.g Tianzong even paid more attention to Tribulation than Situ Cangyue, a master in Invincible Realm.
This silent method of transposition with the shadow was so similar to the method of Tribulation. When it came to how real the shadow was, his was even better than Tribulation’s.
w.a.n.g Yuetong stood at where she was motionlessly. Then in the silent living room inside, she finally heard a slow but very powerful heartbeat.
w.a.n.g Yuetong relieved, looked at Yu Qingyan who just came out of the bedroom, and hissed subconsciously to motion her not to talk.
“Bang!”
Another heartbeat sounded again.
The heartbeat was getting faster and faster. Li Tianlan, who was silent as a statue, seemed to be recovering all over. His heartbeat was getting stronger and stronger, and exuberant vitality emanated from his body, making him full of youthful spirit.
Li Tianlan gently raised his head and glanced at w.a.n.g Yuetong, and then he took a look at Yu Qingyan and smiled, “Morning.”
Yu Qingyan was scared, so she took a step backward subconsciously and whispered, “Morning. Brother Li, your eyes…”
Li Tianlan blinked, only to find his eyes extremely dry. Before he could speak, w.a.n.g Yuetong had already walked over and smiled, “Senior Brother, your eyes are really scary now. I’ll buy you a bottle of eye drops later.”
“Well,” Li Tianlan answered, and didn’t care much. In fact, his eyes now were more than scary but terrifying. Over one night, he just had blinked his eyes for few times, not to mention closing his eyes. At this moment, just got away from the Martial Arts essence of Tribulation, his eyes had become b.l.o.o.d.y red, monster-like and gloomy.
It was not the red eyes because of staying up late, but pupils’ congestion, with its whites hardly to be seen.
Li Tianlan shook his head and felt a little tired at this moment. But thinking of the things happened last night, he believed that it was worthy of it.
Those pages of Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words essence were compiled incisively and vividly by Tribulation, of which every sentence was of great importance. Li Tianlan seemed to keep looking at the Martial Arts essence throughout the night, however, his whole mind was likely integrated with Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words, and with Tribulation’s mental att.i.tude before.
The whole night was quiet, but Li Tianlan’s heart was full of swords and fights. Every unique technique of Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words bloomed the most dazzling sharpness in his mind recklessly. He had listened to the thunder in silence and looked at the flowers in colorlessness. He immersed himself completely in that mysterious essence, almost unable to get out himself.
“Senior brother, you have learned the ‘Shadow’ of Tribulation, right?”
w.a.n.g Yuetong squatted gently in front of Li Tianlan and looked up at him, with some enchantment and admiring emotions in her beautiful, clear eyes, which was a kind of expression that could make any man feel complacent.
“No.”
Li Tianlan shook his head self-deprecatingly. After reading the Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words, he was no longer the same as others who regard the “Shadow” of Tribulation and the Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words as two kinds of unique techniques. Tribulation’s Martial Arts could be divided into two techniques at the beginning, but after Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words became nearly perfect, his “Shadow” was actually the same as the Shadow Formula in Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words. The unique way of exerting power required almost perfect states in the control of body strength, as well as the focus on willpower.
Li Tianlan had a heavenly king heart. Although his Heavenly King Heart was a post celestial one, his willpower had exceeded his realm of the former peak. He had no problem in willpower when imitating Tribulation’s Shadow, however, he still had a long way to go in terms of subtle manipulation of strength, because this aspect had always been his weakness.
“But just now I clearly felt that you and the shadow changed places.”
In front of Li Tianlan, w.a.n.g Yuetong sat back on her heels and said softly, “It was exactly a shadow that looks the same as you.”
“Was it?”
Li Tianlan froze for an instant and thoughtfully tried to remember his state just now, but couldn’t describe that subtle feeling no matter how he tried. All his mind was almost immersed in the Buddhist Incantation of Nine Words just now. Maybe that kind of extremely ethereal state was just the key to his inadvertent transposition with the shadow.
Although it was only the most elementary shadow.
w.a.n.g Yuetong might not understand, but Li Tianlan knew it clearly that it is not good for the shadow to be clear and visual. As the Shadow Formula said, the advanced level of this technique requires to let the shadow change from bright to dark, and then finally became nothingness. The shadow he released unconsciously was obviously at the lowest stage, and he could only transpose with the shadow. He had no ideas about how long it would take to let the shadow imitate his actions.
And…
In other words, he had done all the things just now unconsciously. If you asked him to release a shadow that only switched position with himself, he would probably fail.
Li Tianlan had an unconscious glance at w.a.n.g Yuetong’s chest.
w.a.n.g family of Beihai’s little princess was sitting on her heels by his foot. Perhaps because it was clear that there was only Li Tianlan in the dormitory, so she only dressed in pale red silk pajamas. It was a slightly tacky color, but she looked even more charming. With her skin, she seemed to be more white and attractive against the clothes.
The pajamas were of a low-cut design. Li Tianlan now looked down from a height and took an inadvertent glance at the tender white of the little princess’s chest. He suddenly felt a little hot and dry, and then involuntarily remembered Qin Weibai’s charming body, which made him crazy and almost irrational. At that moment, Li Tianlan even had the desire to let his whole face buried into the two ma.s.ses of the soft body.
He coughed and waved his hands suddenly.
The air in front of him twisted violently to one place and then dispersed like clouds and light winds.
As for the shadow, there was nothing at all.
Li Tianlan shook his head slightly, looked at w.a.n.g Yuetong and said to her, “That was probably just a coincidence.”
He tried to stare at w.a.n.g Yuetong’s liquid s.h.i.+ning and enchanting eyes, but his eyes were uncontrolled to look down and down…
How d.a.m.n white she was!
With his face sullen, Li Tianlan once again put his eyes on w.a.n.g Yuetong’s face.
Then his eyes were uncontrolled to look down again.
The size… the shape… were both flawless… Ahem…
He forced himself to look away again.
But…
How d.a.m.n white they were!
Perhaps Li Tianlan’s action was too deliberate, so w.a.n.g Yuetong looked at him confused and slightly bowed her head. Then, her beautiful face suddenly turned to red.
Li Tianlan gave a dry cough, a little embarra.s.sedly, and a little guiltily.
“Pervert senior brother.”
w.a.n.g Yuetong’s face was blushed, “I dare to show you fair and square. Are you peeping Tom?”
She laughed and said sweetly, “You are so bad.”
“Go and change your clothes.”
Li Tianlan stood up with cold sweat and said righteously, “Let’s go down to have a look. Didn’t you say that there is a job fair?”
w.a.n.g Yuetong covered her chest with hands, gave an angry stare to Li Tianlan, then responded obediently, and walked back to the bedroom.
The door of the dorm was knocked as soon as the bedroom closed.
Li Tianlan confounded for a moment and looked at each other with Yu Qingyan, only thought that it was Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng. So he walked to open the door directly without much thinking.
A slightly obese middle-aged man in suit and tie was standing in front of the door. Looking at Li Tianlan, who opened the door, he was stunned and asked tentatively, “Are you Tianlan?”
Li Tianlan nodded and said with composure, “Who are you?”
The fat man’s smile immediately became more cordial and speak more politely. He took out a business card and handed it to Li Tianlan. With a warm and even modest smile, he said, “Tianlan, I’ve heard a lot about you. Let me introduce myself. My name is Huo Yan. My code name is its h.o.m.ophonic word, Flame. I’m the division chief of the Fire and ice Operation Office in Huating.”
Li Tianlan took the business card and looked at it, nodding quietly.
Seeing Li Tianlan’s reaction, the fat man’s eyes became a little fl.u.s.tered. After a pause, he said unconsciously, “Tianlan, Yuetong…”
“Oh, she is changing clothes in the bedroom.”
Li Tianlan asked without thinking, “Do you know Yuetong?”
The fat man’s eyes immediately changed. His smile became more enthusiastic and even a little flattering, “No, I don’t. I just have heard a lot about her.”
He rubbed his hands, grinned and said respectfully, “Tianlan, I wonder if I can go in? On behalf of the Ice & Fire Special Operations Division, I would like to invite you and Yuetong to join us. We will provide you all our help. We are a senior organization belongs to the Special Operations Bureau of Huating. We can ensure that you’ll be well paid. Can I come in and talk?”
A senior organization that belonged to the Special Operations Bureau?
That was to say, at least in the Special Warfare System of Huating, the Flame or Huo Yan standing in front of him was something.
A role of great importance in the Special Warfare System of Huating, just looked like this?
Li Tianlan let him in with his impa.s.sive face but became more confused in his heart.
