When there is victory, there will naturally be celebrations.
The celebration banquet in Donghuang Palace lasted from near dusk to the end when the night was getting dark.
Yu Donglai, who rarely cooks after closing Yu's private kitchen, cooks in person.
Donghuang Palace ushered in the busiest day since its establishment.
Before yesterday, this manor built in the beautiful scenery on the outskirts of Huating City still had the sign of Hanyue Palace. The name Donghuang Palace was more like the recognition in the hearts of some of its own people.
After the exercise was over and the celebration banquet came to an end, Li Tianlan hung the plaque with the words "Donghuang Palace" written by him three years ago in front of the gate with his own hands.
Li Baitian, who was seriously injured, sat drunkenly in his wheelchair and watched this scene. He squinted his eyes, pulled the pale Xu Chu beside him, and said with a silly smile: "This plaque was originally obtained from my senior brother after he got him drunk in Shushan. Stolen, isn't it very domineering? It's not too late to hang it up now. I will go back to Shushan in the next two days and bring some elite swordsmen down the mountain. The Donghuang Palace is officially established. After everyone graduates, the shelves must be set up quickly. . Lao Xu, you are the eldest brother of Yaochi, don’t you plan to trick some people from Yaochi?”
"It depends on the commander and the junior sister."
Xu Chu shook his head honestly.
His situation is completely different from that of Li Baitian. The senior brother of Yaochi has a high status, but in the final analysis he is just a junior. At least for now, he has no power to bring the brothers of Yaochi to the East Emperor Palace.
But Li Baitian is different. He is very young, but he is definitely an elder in terms of seniority.
The master of Shushan Taixu Sword can be said to be one of the four most important forces in Shushan.
Thousands of swordsmen in Shu Mountain are practicing swordsmanship on the mountain, dreaming of being accepted as a disciple by a certain sword master. Li Baitian is now in the Thunder Realm, and has barely qualified to form his own sect in Shu Mountain. The people he selected will lead him out of Shu Mountain. , then they are all his disciples. Joining the Donghuang Palace is completely a matter of Li Baitian's words. With such status, Xu Chu is simply incomparable.
This can only be done if Dongcheng is like this or Dongcheng Wudi comes forward.
Especially the latter.
Nowadays, most of the elders in Shushan, including the leader, will call him "senior brother" when they see Dongcheng Wudi.
"Now, some things can really be done."
Dongcheng Wudi glanced at Li Baitian and said with a smile: "But you have just started, so it is best to be more cautious in selecting people. The quality of your swordsmen in Shushan is not bad, but in your current situation, a person with two hundred core members The Donghuang Palace is already at its operating limit. Before you can develop and grow, the Donghuang Palace needs absolute elites."
"I will also make arrangements in this regard. Taixu, you should pay attention when choosing people."
Dongcheng Wudi said.
Too weak...
The corners of Li Baitian's mouth twitched, and he cursed in his mind for your face.
He nodded and said, "I will discuss it with Tianlan."
Dongcheng Wudi smiled and nodded, looking at Li Tianlan who was fixing the plaque under the light in front of him.
The celebration party has come to an end.
But the carnival is not destined to end.
This day can be said to be a crucial day for Li Tianlan.
He used his own strength to establish his position in Central Continent, and the Donghuang Palace officially appeared in Central Continent.
The Dongcheng Family, Sighing City, Li Family, Shushan, Yaochi, and even the Zhongzhou Government will select the most trustworthy talents to join the Donghuang Palace to build the strongest power framework in the shortest time.
Tonight is just the beginning.
If we say that the Youzhou Conference some time ago was the beginning of Li's comeback.
So tonight is the beginning that belongs only to Li Tianlan and Donghuang Palace.
Nothing to do with anything.
Dongcheng Wudi glanced at Lin Youxian, who was standing aside and smiling quietly.
The Lin Clan are little known in the Dark World.
But for a figure of Dongcheng Wudi's level, it's naturally not a big secret.
But over the past many years, in Dongcheng Wudi's impression, the concept of the Lin clan was actually very general.
Even Dongcheng Wudi doesn't think the concept of Lin Clan is very real.
This is an ethnic group all over the world. They can be found in South America, North America, Eurasia, and even Australia in the southern hemisphere. Nowhere are they powerful enough to influence the situation, but everywhere they are, they are It has an influence that cannot be ignored.
They will cooperate with each other, but their connections are extremely scattered. They are not united with each other. They annex each other and have many conspiracy and calculations.
This is a behemoth that is completely different from the Beihai Wang family.
All the branches of the Beihai Wang Family are in the Beihai Province. They built the Beihai Province into a monolithic country, with a vague hint of China. With the Beihai Wang Family as the core, they influenced Central Continent and established the Southeast Group, which eventually became a powerful force in Central Continent. After becoming a behemoth that easily affects the overall situation, its influence begins to radiate around the world.
The entire Beihai Wang family is like a towering tree rooted in Central Continent, blocking out the sky and the sun.
But the so-called Lin Clan is like a forest, spreading its branches all over the world, with basically no contact on weekdays. They also have vicious competition with each other, and even when they are fighting to the death, they have no restrictions on each other and can do whatever they want.
Three years ago, when Lin Fengting came to Zhongzhou, Dongcheng Wudi learned about the Lin clan's headquarters in Switzerland.
If it weren't for the existence of the Lin Clan headquarters, in Dongcheng Wudi's eyes, the so-called Lin Clan is a group of wealthy and successful businessmen, politicians, and warlords scattered around the world. The only thing they have in common is that they all have the surname Lin. That’s all.
People in the Lin clan headquarters do not make money, do business, do not engage in politics, and do not engage in intelligence.
They don't have to do anything.
Each generation of Lin clan leader does not need the so-called brilliance and wisdom. The entire Lin clan has only one requirement for the clan leader.
That means you must be absolutely strong.
That is the patron saint of the entire Lin clan.
When any branch of the Lin Clan encounters an irresistible external threat, the patron saint of the Lin Clan headquarters is obliged to help his branch solve the trouble.
The solution can be outright force.
It can also be to mobilize resources from other branches to jointly fight against external forces.
This is the power of the leader of the Lin clan.
It can be seen and touched.
Everyone in the Lin Clan can break away from their own branch and form a new branch.
The headquarters gave the branch not only protection in critical moments, but also an unimaginable sum of money.
But such protection and granting are not free.
Any group or family established by an independent branch will hand over 20% of its profits to the headquarters, and it will be handed over permanently and passed down from generation to generation.
If you don’t agree to this clause in the first place, no one will get the money.
Even if they regret it midway, the Lin family will recover the original funds with interest based on the originally signed agreement, and at the same time cancel the protection of the branch.
The Lin Clan Headquarters takes 20% of the total income from each branch every year.
These benefits are placed in the Lin clan headquarters, which is too lazy to invest or even spend money. It is a huge cash flow that can make anyone crazy.
Lin people who want to set up a branch will get their own funds from these cash flows.
As a result, the Lin clan has more and more branches, and the clan's income will also increase. The resources that the clan leader can mobilize will also increase, and the responsibilities he will shoulder will also become greater and greater, eventually turning into an extremely delicate cycle.
This is a quite novel operating model. Over hundreds of years, the Lin clan's model has continued to mature. To this day, even the Wang clan in Beihai will have extremely bloody clear-cut events every few decades or hundreds of years. , but the Lin clan has always been stable.
The major branches will fight against each other, but the Lin clan has never had any disasters that swept the entire clan.
They have spread all over the world, and they do not have any power in any place, but their strength hidden under the water is enough to ensure the stability and interests of the entire clan.
Beihai Wang family.
Lin clan.
Two completely different modes of operation, two completely different attitudes towards life.
This is the rule set by their ancestors.
The only proud ancestor of the Beihai Wang family for hundreds of years seems to always have an unparalleled aggressiveness. He hopes that his descendants will move forward with increasingly heavy responsibilities, with absolute force and power, Always stand at the top of the world and have a panoramic view of the mountains and small mountains.
Therefore, most of the past patriarchs of the Beihai Wang family were peerless heroes.
However, the successive clan leaders of the Lin Clan just quietly guarded their growing Lin Clan, calmly, calmly and leisurely.
Dongcheng Wudi once studied the Wang family and Lin family in Beihai in detail.
He could not evaluate the state of mind of the two ancestors, but to this day, he could be sure that the overall strength of the Lin clan would probably not be weaker than that of the Beihai Wang clan, which had highly concentrated power.
At least it won't be too different.
Dongcheng Wudi knows Lin Youxian's identity.
As for Li Tianlan and Lin Youxian, they were involved with the Lin clan, and Dongcheng was not hostile except for surprises.
Donghuang Palace was established.
If the Lin clan is also willing to introduce some talents to Donghuang Palace, Li Tianlan's future path will undoubtedly be broader.
"Whoosh!"
A dull sound broke through the air.
Countless fireworks went up in the Donghuang Hall.
Dongcheng Wudi came to his senses.
In sight, Li Tianlan had fixed the plaque of Donghuang Palace in front of the door.
All the lights in the Donghuang Hall were turned off.
Row after row of fireworks rose into the sky, blooming in the night, seemingly endlessly.
The entire Donghuang Palace was transformed into a hazy and trance-like light amidst the blooming of fireworks.
Except for Li Baitian, who was still in a wheelchair, Li Tianlan was lifted up by everyone. Everyone shouted at Donghuang Palace and threw Li Tianlan into the sky again and again.
Li Tianlan's hearty laughter rang out in the reverberation of the fireworks, so clear and so relaxing.
Dongcheng Wudi quietly stared at Li Tianlan's smile with soft eyes, and finally sighed quietly.
"Dad, everything is on track."
With a gentle voice, Dongcheng Qiuchi, one of the thirteen directors of Huating, walked over and said, "You don't seem to be happy?"
"how come?"
Dongcheng Wudi laughed: "I just feel... I feel..."
The decisive killing god hesitated, but didn't know how to describe his feelings.
"Guilty?"
Dongcheng Qiuchi stared at his father's face.
Dongcheng Wudi was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and touched his daughter's head.
"What should Uncle Zonghu and the others do?"
Dongcheng Qiuchi glanced at the crowd.
Among the crowd, the tall Li Zonghu was particularly eye-catching. This uncle, a major general who had been in the Border Guards Corps for almost thirty years and was initially an invincible soldier in Dongcheng, was crowded with a group of young people, smiling boldly and happily.
"I'll make arrangements."
Dongcheng Wudi said.
It’s not just Li Zonghu.
Today, Dongcheng Wudi has to make proper arrangements for the 40,000 people from the four armies of the Border Guard Corps.
"It's not easy to handle."
Dongcheng Qiuchi frowned slightly: "Today's things are very complicated. Wang Tianzong broke the rules by wanting to kill Tianlan. But you broke the rules by mobilizing the army. Rich groups and academics will now target Wang Tianzong, but You will also become the target of the Southeast Group and the Special Operations Group, and it is estimated that no later than tomorrow, the decision-making bureau will hold an emergency plenary meeting."
"Don't worry."
Dongcheng Wudi shook his head: "I'm mentally prepared. This time, I won't be able to deal with anything."
"What happened this time really cannot shake you."
Dongcheng Qiuchi said: "But after this meeting, the youngest marshal of Central Continent will appear, right?"
Dongcheng Wudi narrowed his eyes and thought of the double thunder veins of the Wang family in Beihai.
Dijiang.
He is currently the most likely candidate to serve as the new commander of the Border Guard Corps.
Dongcheng Wudi knows Beihai Wang's pattern.
In every generation of the Beihai Wang family, there will be at least two peak and invincible level combatants.
This generation is Wang Tianzong and Xia Zhi.
It's just that Xia Zhi's situation is a bit special. After damaging the foundation, Wang Tianzong has shouldered the responsibility of everyone for many years.
And what about the next generation
Wang Shengxiao is bound to be one of them.
But another invincible person might be Song Ci.
But currently, the biggest possibility is Dijiang.
After the fall, Wang Shengxiao's state regressed, and Di Jiang would even reach the peak of invincibility earlier than Wang Shengxiao.
"As expected."
Dongcheng Wudi said calmly.
He was thinking about Di Jiang, but his eyes always fell on Li Tianlan.
The phone rings.
Dongcheng Wudi took out his mobile phone and raised his eyebrows when he saw the number on the phone.
The sound of fireworks exploding continued.
Dongcheng Wudi walked into the Donghuang Palace and answered the phone.
Dongcheng Qiuchi followed his father quietly.
The call duration was short.
But Dongcheng Qiuchi clearly saw that his father's face turned gloomy almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He hung up the phone silently and glanced at Dongcheng Qiuchi: "Call Tianlan."
"problem occurs?"
Dongcheng Qiuchi asked subconsciously.
Dongcheng Wudi shook his head, gritted his teeth and said: "Snow Country!"
This day is the night of the 31st day of the seventh month in Central Continent.
It’s early morning on August 1st in Snow Country.
After the collapse of the Polar Alliance, the turbulent situation in Eastern Europe was finally completely detonated.
During the investigation, the South American Chiang Kai-shek intelligence organization finally determined the location of the largest group of elites in the Reincarnation Palace in the Snow Country.
Jiang Qiansong, the leader of the Chiang clan in South America, personally pursued and killed him.
The Dark Knights protect the largest group of elite retreats from the Palace of Reincarnation.
The captain of the Templar Knights, the invincible master Chaos and Jiang Qiansong joined forces. The two invincible masters slaughtered nearly half of the elites of the Palace of Reincarnation and the Dark Knights in one fell swoop.
The battle took place in the capital of Emeia in Eastern Europe.
I don't know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but the place where the battle broke out happened to be near the Central Continent garrison base in Emeia.
Crazy flames of war spread everywhere in Emea.
The more than 10,000 troops stationed in Aimeia in Central Continent suffered more than 3,000 casualties!
The Emeiya government immediately conveyed the news to Central Continent.
The senior officials of Zhongzhou were furious and immediately decided to hold a meeting of all senior officials.
All nine directors attended.
This time, in addition to all the senior leaders, three people were specially invited to the high-level meeting.
One is Tianzong, the Sword Emperor of Central Continent who is famous in the Dark World.
One is Wang Tianzong’s first disciple, Di Jiang.
The last one is Li Tianlan.
The storm was fierce.
