The voice was very close, but it seemed to be very low. It sounded in Li Tianlan's ears with a bit of coldness and resentment. It was a clear and sexy voice, but the tone was as cold as the wind in hell.
Li Tianlan turned his head sharply.
Less than ten meters behind him, a sexy, plump and graceful figure stood there quietly, looking at Li Tianlan calmly.
The strange color in Li Tianlan's eyes flashed away.
The woman in front of her could be described as a stunning beauty in all aspects. She was about 1.7 meters tall and had a plump and well-proportioned figure. The tight white skirt clung to her body lightly, and her busty breasts, waist and buttocks were in the skirt. She was fully exposed under the package. The hem of the skirt was very short. A pair of snow-white and delicate slender legs were exposed in the morning sun, seeming to sparkle with an intoxicating soft luster. She stepped on a pair of high heels of nearly ten centimeters, which made her legs look slimmer. Straight and attractive hair, unlimited temptation.
This is a woman who looks to be about twenty-six or seventeen years old. She has just the right facial features and is lightly painted with pink and white. She has a very stunning charm. The gentle wind is blowing some of her long hair, and the woman naturally stretches out her hands to close them. , the corner of his mouth raised a smile, his smile was charming and delicate.
Li Tianlan couldn't describe for a moment whether the other party was charming or something else, because under the other party's seductive attire and charming smile, her temperament was always arrogant, even holy.
This is a woman that Li Tianlan is no stranger to.
He had seen her strength, her weakness and hardship, her helplessness and perseverance, but this morning, what he saw was her charm and arrogance.
Li Tianlan didn't pay much attention to her. In the few times they met before, she always felt that everything about the other person was just superficial. No matter what posture she showed, there seemed to be only numbness and dead silence in her eyes, as if this was hers. Nature.
"Du..."
Li Tianlan opened his mouth and forgot the other person's specific name for a moment, so he could only vaguely say: "Sister Du?"
"My name is Du Hanyin."
The woman chuckled softly, and her clear voice became more delicate. I have to say that the temperament she displayed was really unique. She was arrogant and charming at the same time, which could easily inspire men's desire to conquer. However, Li Tianlan is now basically immune to this charm. , It’s not that he is arrogant, his current state seems to be as tragic as what Li Baitian said. His starting point when it comes to women is really too high. He took possession of Qin Weibai and stripped off the clothes of the little princess of the Beihai Wang family. Now he has another stunning fiancée by his side. Du Hanyin is also a real beauty. , but Li Tianlan looked down upon him.
Du Hanyin.
Li Tianlan nodded. He really didn't pay much attention to this old student who stayed at Sky Academy. The more vivid impression was that during the entrance exercise, when he was evading the pursuit of Liu Xiuwei, the former deputy director of the Teaching Office of Sky Academy. At that time, Du Hanyin led a small team that was not very good and successfully defeated Li Baitian, and then tied with Wang Yuetong in the first practical class.
Du Hanyin seemed to be highly regarded by the Enchantress of the Wang family in Beihai. It was because of the Enchantress' intervention that Wang Yuetong, Li Baitian and others were not pursued for the sneak attack during the entrance exercise.
As for other impressions, they are gone.
Moreover, Qin Weibai specially prepared a list for him of the key teachers and students of Sky Academy. Du Hanyin's name was not included in the list, so although the two could be considered classmates, Li Tianlan was not deeply impressed by her.
He never thought that Du Hanyin would know about Phoenix Pavilion.
For such an unknown force, Li Tianlan was instinctively wary. Jiang Shangyu's biggest motive for killing him was because of someone in the Phoenix Pavilion. Li Tianlan didn't know what relationship he had with the other person, but at least in Jiang Shangyu's heart, The other party thinks that they are related to him, or at least that they are likely to have an intersection in the future.
And the reminders from the Dongcheng family, especially the unspeakable reminders, seem to illustrate the problem.
Especially when he and Qin Weibai talked about the Phoenix Pavilion, Qin Weibai's expression was obviously wrong.
All this shows that Phoenix Pavilion is definitely not simple.
Is Kunlun City's secret investment in East Island this time the Phoenix Pavilion
Jiang Shangyu's murderous intention, Gongsun Qi's warning, the Dongcheng family's unspeakability, and Wang Zhaoliang's reminder.
There seemed to be a traceable connection between all of this, but Li Tianlan always felt that some crucial clues were missing.
He pondered, looked at Du Hanyin in front of him gently, and said softly: "Senior, do you know about Phoenix Pavilion?"
"I don't know. But I've heard that it's related to Kunlun City."
Du Hanyin shook his head, his delicate eyebrows raised suddenly, as if hesitating.
"Who did you listen to?"
Li Tianlan asked directly, in the 20 years since Kunlun City was established, few people knew about the Phoenix Pavilion related to it. This was not a normal phenomenon at all.
"The enemy."
Du Hanyin's tone was strange, and there was a faint murderous intention in the air. She could see that Li Tianlan was serious now, but in the end she sighed: "I know Phoenix Pavilion, but I just heard someone mention it. I don't know anything about it." Not much more than the Young City Lord."
Li Tianlan frowned and said directly: "Senior, can you be more detailed?"
Du Hanyin didn't speak, nor did she come near. She kept standing at the same spot, keeping a subtle distance from Li Tianlan. They seemed to be chatting with each other, and there was a sense of confrontation.
This senior who is a beauty in terms of appearance and temperament is obviously dressed up carefully today. She spoke softly and had a very low posture before, but at this moment, after a brief hesitation, Li Tianlan clearly noticed the other party's appearance. His eyes changed. It was a scrutinizing gaze, scrutinizing him, the young master of Sighing City, as if he wanted to confirm something.
Li Tianlan waited quietly, without saying a word. He was quiet, without any edge or aura, and was extremely restrained.
"About six months ago."
Du Hanyin finally spoke, and his clear voice became a little dry: "I was attacked when I was on a mission in the northwest of Central Continent. I fled for nearly three hundred miles before escaping. The main reason was because they wanted to They captured me alive and never killed me. They were two masters at the peak of the Burning Fire Realm, affiliated with a core subordinate organization of Kunlun City. When I was seriously injured, they mentioned the Phoenix Pavilion."
Du Hanyin paused, thought about it carefully, and then slowly said: "Their original words at that time were: You are so good at serving men, I might as well send you to Phoenix Pavilion. The eldest lady of the Du family must have many people Everyone is interested in having a taste.”
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows sharply.
Serve a man? Phoenix Pavilion
His inner thoughts were surging, and when he looked at the graceful Du Hanyin in a white dress in front of him, his eyes instinctively became a little weird.
"Don't look at me like that."
Du Hanyin suddenly smiled charmingly, sweet and sweet, but her eyes that had always seemed numb were a little sad: "I am indeed good at serving men. I think I am talented in this aspect, right? Ha... In Sky Academy , I have had nine men in more than a year, and from the first to the last, none of the men who used me said anything bad about me."
Her pink tongue gently licked her pretty red lips, her eyes were as charming as silk, but with an almost crazy sadness and despair. It was the pain and sorrow of the newly healed scar being opened, and the calmness was revealed. Unforgettable madness.
Du Hanyin looked into Li Tianlan's eyes and said with a sweet smile: "Junior, do you want to taste me? You can do whatever you want."
Li Tianlan's expression did not change at all, but his eyes became deeper.
They were a pair of extremely deep eyes, like the starry sky or the abyss, vaguely carrying a vast and silent power.
In these eyes, Du Hanyin saw neither lust nor contempt.
There is only peace.
"Senior, do you have any difficulties?"
Li Tianlan suddenly spoke.
Du Hanyin bit her lip and looked at Li Tianlan stubbornly without saying a word.
I thought that my soul and body had long been numb, I thought that the nightmare-like humiliating scenes in the past had long since settled, but in front of these young but profound eyes, Du Hanyin was surprised to find that she was trembling. All the humiliation and despair in the past had gone crazy. It spread to every corner of her body, and her vision gradually blurred. She just clenched her trembling fists tightly, bit her lips, and tried hard to maintain her calm pride and the so-called charm she hated most.
Li Tianlan took out a cigarette and lit it, lost in thought.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of himself.
Not who you are now, but who you were before you entered the world.
At that time, he was also the young master, the young master of the Li family.
He took a deep drag on the cigarette and smiled to himself.
People who have never struggled in desperate situations will never understand the helplessness and stubbornness of always wanting to fight despite being desperate, nor will they feel the madness and resentment after seeing some hope.
The road of life has never been smooth. We advance and retreat amidst the ups and downs, fall, fall, get injured, and bleed. Some people may give up everything as they move forward, but as long as they persist, there will definitely be a spirit in their hearts. Reasons to stay the course.
Li Tianlan is like this.
The same goes for Du Hanyin.
"The Du family in the northwest..."
Youmeng spoke softly, looked at Du Hanyin, and said in a complicated tone: "Are you the eldest lady of the Du family?"
Du Hanyin nodded, shook his head, and laughed at himself: "Where is the Du family in the northwest? Where is the young lady? She's just a wandering ghost."
Li Tianlan looked at Youmeng, and in front of Du Hanyin, he didn't hide anything and asked directly: "What's going on with the Du family?"
Youmeng looked at Du Hanyin. In the silence of the other party, she shook her head and said: "The Du family in the northwest can be said to be the first-tier wealthy family in Central Continent. It is even more powerful. It is deeply rooted in the northwest region of Central Continent and has great influence. The head of the family, Du Yuanshan, was also one of the few half-step invincible masters in Central Continent. However, since Du Yuanshan failed to compete with the Jiang family for the position of General of Nine Provinces, the Du family began to go downhill. First there was internal discord, and then Du Yuanshan was assassinated. The Du family was also wiped out by the prince group and the special operations group in the chaos."
You Meng's voice didn't have any fluctuations. She just told the story she knew in a normal way: "There may be some hidden secrets in this, but Sigh City doesn't pay much attention to these and has not done much investigation."
The collapse of the Du family was so spectacular that the entire Central Continent was in uproar. Although Youmeng didn't pay attention to this, it didn't mean that she was stupid. She didn't bother to think about it before, but now Li Tianlan has become their young city lord, and she has begun to contact the Du family again. , after thinking about it for a while, she could roughly guess something, but she was not sure: "The Du family was destroyed more than three years ago, and Du Yuanshan was assassinated earlier. He was also a member of the Central Continent at the time. One of the great masters. He is very close to the academy and can be regarded as one of the super masters of the academy. There were rumors at the time that after he and Jiang Shan failed to compete for the Kyushu General, the academy originally planned to transfer Du Yuanshan to Huating to replace Zhuang Huayang. The person who serves as the principal of Sky Academy is just..."
She hadn't finished speaking yet, but Li Tianlan already understood what she meant.
The academic sect can now be said to be a group that stands on the commanding heights of Central Continent.
But this was not the case more than three years ago. It should have been the most sensitive period for the academic faction to attack the commanding heights. The general trend of Central Continent was controlled by the Prince Group. The most prominent power in Central Continent was at the turn of the old and the new. Could it be that the Du family was destroyed by the Prince? When the group retreated from the commanding heights of power, it joined forces with the special operations group to carry out a big move
If it covers the entire northwest area of Central Continent, then this move is indeed not small.
Li Tianlan sneered, his eyes stern.
The Prince Group, this behemoth in Central Continent, is really accompanied by blood before it goes up and down.
The destruction of the Du family undoubtedly helped the Jiang family in Northern Xinjiang and Jiang Shangyu's family, but Li Tianlan couldn't figure out why the academic faction didn't stop it at that time. The academic faction was already extremely weak in the special warfare system, and Du Yuanshan was half a step ahead. The invincible master is definitely one of the most important figures in the academy, and the Du family is a real wealthy family. How can it be destroyed just by saying it is destroyed? Even if Du Yuanshan is assassinated, they should adopt a protective attitude.
For Li Tianlan, this is definitely not a historical issue, because although he is now the young city lord of Sighing City, he has also temporarily joined the academic sect. In the future, he will be the representative of the academic sect in the special warfare system. What happened to the Du family It will inevitably make Li Tianlan doubtful and want to know the academic's attitude towards him at the critical moment.
During the period when the Du family was destroyed, Li Huacheng, the leader of the academic sect, was about to take the final step, but Li Tianlan did not believe that the academic sect at that time really had no time to care about anything else.
"What was the attitude of the academic community at that time?"
Li Tianlan looked at Du Hanyin and asked. It is impossible for a loose immortal like Youmeng to know the answer to this kind of question. Du Hanyin, as the person involved, should know better.
"What attitude can I have?"
Du Hanyin said coldly: "The Prince Group and the Special Operations Group took action at the same time, and other groups also benefited. How could the academy have a clear attitude in such a sensitive period? Young City Lord, don't you have an engagement with the Dongcheng family? Dongcheng The fact that my wife Bai Qingqian became the governor of Qinzhou was one of the benefits obtained by the wealthy group!"
"What's more... the academic school has not gained nothing. Although the Du family is gone, they have been running the northwest in recent years and gave up the right to speak in the northwest special operations system. They have gained more in other aspects. Several A few months ago, Governor Bai went to Guandong from Qinzhou, and the province of Qinzhou also fell under their control. Ha, the rise and fall of wealthy families? In the eyes of their big shots, it is just a pure transaction. "
The rise and fall of wealthy families is nothing more than transactions.
Under the general trend, every wealthy family is nothing more than a chess piece.
Li Tianlan's eyes were clear, he looked at Du Hanyin in front of him and asked, "Do you hate it?"
Obviously, the destruction of the Du family also destroyed Du Hanyin's life. The daughter of a wealthy family had an extraordinary status in Sky Academy, but what did she become? In more than a year, there were nine men.
In desperate situations, women often face greater humiliation than men.
"What do you think?"
Du Hanyin said lightly: "In the last Sky Academy, I was one of the strongest, and I also had a seat among the top ten masters of the younger generation. My brother, my fiancé, and I originally wanted to win the first place in the Sky Academy. , to revive the reputation of the Du family, but what is the result? My fiancé killed my brother for the sake of his future. I originally had the spirit of grace, but he also destroyed me. My strength fell from the burning realm to the ice-condensing realm, twelve times. The mission failed eight times, and the credits once became negative. For the most basic dozens of credits a month, I have to take the initiative to seduce some powerful men. If you were me, would you hate it? "
"So you came to me today..."
Li Tianlan smiled and said, "Do you want to use Sigh City's hand to avenge you?"
He is not surprised by Du Hanyin's choice. This choice may not be good, but as long as she wants revenge, this is Du Hanyin's only choice.
Du Hanyin's own hatred is okay. Her fiancé who betrayed her is so strong. He is also a student in the previous class and will not achieve much for the time being. However, the hatred of the Du family is aimed at Kunlun City and the Prince Group. From this point of view, Li Tianlan and her goals were the same. After his identity was exposed and he became the young master of Sighing City, it was natural for Du Hanyin to come to him.
At least at present, in the entire Central Continent, there is really an irresolvable hatred with Kunlun City, and the only person who may have the strength, power, and potential to take revenge in the future is himself.
Although the enchantress of the Beihai Wang family has a crush on Du Hanyin, it is mostly out of personal sympathy. It is impossible for a giant like the Beihai Wang family to fight with Kunlun City for Du Hanyin, not to mention that the Beihai Wang family and Kunlun City are now secretly engaged in What is the plan? Even if there is nothing fishy between the two, Du Hanyin himself is not worthy of the Beihai Wang family.
"I want to join the City of Sighs, follow you, and hone my martial arts."
Du Hanyin looked straight at Li Tianlan: "As for revenge, we have the same enemy."
"really."
Li Tianlan nodded: "But why should I agree to you? I have grudges with Kunlun City, but that doesn't mean that I will draw everyone who has grudges with Kunlun City to the City of Sighs. Whether I am the Young City Lord or Li Tianlan Okay, now I stand on the weak side and take you in, and I have to bear the risk. So, although it is hard to hear, I must say, whether it is self-protection now or revenge in the future, I will not leave useless people around me."
"I have my worth."
Du Hanyin was not embarrassed or flustered. Her clear voice was calm and confident.
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows and remained calm.
"First of all, it's my identity. Although the Du family has been destroyed, there are still some uncles who are willing to help me. They can't do anything in Sky Academy, but after leaving Sky Academy, this is a very valuable asset. Especially if I can join Sigh City, the effect of this kind of connections will be more obvious. The Du family's momentum is concentrated in the northwest. If the young master wants to establish his own foundation in the northwest after graduation, the connections in my hands can play a big role."
Du Hanyin's voice became more and more shocked. She looked at Li Tianlan seriously and continued: "As long as the young master's performance is amazing enough, it is not impossible to form a group himself in the future."
Li Tianlan's expression remained unchanged, but he thought seriously.
Forming a group is too far away, he has not yet thought about it, and he is still hesitant about where to establish his own foundation.
At present, the foundation of Donghuang Palace is naturally in Huating, but Huating is destined not to become Li Tianlan's back garden in a short time. If there is a convergence of trends in Zhongzhou, then Huating, which is attracting the attention of major groups, will naturally be the focus. In the Palace of Reincarnation With him getting further and further away, it is impossible for him to control Huating alone with Sigh City. On this matter, the attitude of the academic school will even be very vague. It can establish a foundation in the Huating area and establish a strong foundation in all areas. Seeking development in the game of big forces is already the best situation.
Li Tianlan's vision cannot be limited to Huating, but the current situation is that besides Huating, where should he develop has become a big problem.
Whether it was the Taoist master Xuan Xuanzi who pointed him to go to Wuyue, or the master of metaphysics Wuwei suggested that he go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it all belonged to the territory of the Southeast Group, and any rash action would only lead to a blow from the Beihai Wang family.
As for the Northeast, as the young city lord of Sigh City, there was no way he would compete with Sigh City for anything.
The southwest is occupied by the Prince Group.
The south is the top priority that the special warfare group has developed in recent years.
As for the northwest, from the perspective of the special warfare system, it can almost be regarded as the base camp of Kunlun City. However, if viewed from an overall perspective, the power of the academic faction is not weak. Using the political power of the academic faction in the northwest, Defeating Kunlun City in the special warfare system will make it easier to gain support from the academic community. This is indeed a good choice, but it is equivalent to a head-on confrontation with Kunlun City. What is needed most is strength.
After three years at Sky Academy, if Li Tianlan could reach the peak of the Thunder Realm, he would go to the northwest without hesitation, but Li Tianlan himself knew that reaching the peak of the Thunder Realm within three years was simply unrealistic.
Li Tianlan shook his head. The speed at which he was improving his strength now completely affected his future path. He didn't want to think too much about this issue for the time being, but Du Hanyin's statement did confirm her value.
It may not be a big deal to Beihai Wang, but it is very important to him.
"continue."
He lowered his eyelids and said calmly.
"my body."
Du Hanyin's sexy voice revealed unspeakable cruelty and determination: "I consider myself pretty good-looking, and I can not only serve men, but also seduce men. As long as I can get revenge, I am willing to give everything. Young Master, if you are willing If so, I am also willing to build a Phoenix Pavilion belonging to Young Master."
Phoenix Pavilion...
Li Tianlan has not figured out the situation of this organization yet, but based on the clues provided by Du Hanyin, he knows part of the functions of Phoenix Pavilion. No matter how mysterious this organization is, at least one of its functions is to serve men.
If that's all, Li Tianlan doesn't think this organization can pose any threat to him in the battle of Long Island.
He remained silent, waiting for Du Hanyin to continue.
"And my fighting power."
Du Hanyin gently stretched out her hand, and on her slender white fingers, a flame appeared suddenly, a very subtle firelight, but the air nearby was distorted with a bang. The temperature was too hot. In the distorted air, Du Hanyin's The body seemed to become blurry.
The fire gradually expanded. At this moment, Du Hanyin was dazzling in the fire like a phoenix reborn from the ashes. His whole person exuded a powerful aura that even Li Tianlan was a little moved.
Youmeng's color changed slightly, and she seemed to be in disbelief as she asked: "After your wind vein was abolished, it was restored again?"
"It can't be considered a recovery, it should be said to be a mutation, because this wind vein is stronger than before."
Du Hanyin said slowly.
Li Tianlan took a deep breath and his eyes gradually became serious.
"I used to be in the Burning Fire Realm. Although I fell to the Ice-Condensing Realm, my strength has returned to its peak with the mutation of my wind veins. Young Master, give me time, I will not lose to anyone."
In the firelight, Du Hanyin's eyes were clear and translucent, and all the numbness was fading away.
This is her value.
"Young Master, Zie may be very interested in her."
Youmeng said in a serious tone, Jie is the only super assassin with dual wind veins in the dark world, and he will definitely study the mutated wind veins.
Li Tianlan was silent for a long time before he said calmly: "I don't like the fact that you are valued by the Beihai Wang Clan Enchantress. I hope you can show an attitude towards this battle on Changdao."
Du Hanyin's expression changed, and she finally nodded and said, "I understand."
The phone suddenly rang.
Youmeng took out his cell phone to answer the call, frowned after saying a few words, and then hung up the phone.
"Young Master, the military advisor and Gongsun Qi signed the investigation order at the same time. They hope that Sigh City can send elites to investigate other forces around the No. 3 Defense Area. The Wang Family of Beihai and Kunlun City also received the same order."
Youmeng looked at Li Tianlan and asked, "Who should we send?"
After the investigation, it means that the decisive battle is imminent.
Li Tianlan's pupils shrank slightly.
Under the sun, he stood up and said, "I'll go."
He looked at Du Hanyin, narrowed his eyes and said, "You come with me."
