After Ma Wenlong's commotion, Yang Qi left before the banquet was over.
"Are you ready to leave the imperial capital?" Yang Qi looked in the direction of the airport and sighed with a complicated expression.
Through the Eight-Winged Golden Cicada, Yang Qi had learned that Tang Xinjie was heading towards the airport, probably preparing to return to Qingzhou. After all, after what happened at the banquet, it was impossible for Tang Xinjie to be with Ma Wenlong.
However, Yang Qi thought this was a good thing. With his keen eyesight, he could tell at a glance that Ma Wenlong was not a good person. Later, he learned from Xu Ling that Ma Wenlong was a typical playboy.
"Ma Wenlong and Tang Xinjie are together, I'm afraid they have other intentions. This is a good result." Yang Qi muttered to himself.
Tang Xinjie is his friend. Although the two of them could not be together, he still hopes that she can have a good home. Obviously, Ma Wenlong is not such a person.
Shaking his head, Yang Qi stopped thinking about it. With his previous threat, he believed that Ma Wenlong would not dare to bother Tang Xinjie anymore.
…
In the hall, Yang Qi sat upright. Xie Guangyao had already disappeared automatically. In the huge villa, only Old Xie and a guard were left.
Elder Xie's eyes fell on Yang Qi, and he chuckled and said, "Why, are you nervous?"
"I am a little nervous." Yang Qi nodded with a wry smile. Leader No. 1 would be here in a moment. It would be strange if he was not nervous when he thought about meeting Leader No. 1 right away.
This feeling was just like when he saw the Martial King in Zichen Continent, and even more nervous than when he saw the Martial King. After all, the military power of an individual on Earth was too small, which made the status of the No. 1 leader infinitely elevated. More than 99% of people could only see the No. 1 leader on TV and the Internet in their lifetime.
"You don't have to be so nervous. Leader No. 1 is very approachable." Mr. Xie chuckled.
Hearing this, the bitter smile on Yang Qi's face became even more intense. What was Mr. Xie's identity? He was the old man who followed Taizu to conquer the world. Although the number one leader was in charge of China, he was only Mr. Xie's junior.
"Mr. Xie, the No. 1 leader has arrived." Just when Yang Qi was getting extremely nervous, the guard in charge of the villa's security quickly came to the hall and reported the news of the No. 1 leader's arrival.
Mr. Xie nodded slightly and immediately dismissed the guards. A moment later, a middle-aged man, accompanied by a guard, came to the hall.
"Mr. Xie." When the middle-aged man saw Mr. Xie, he immediately stepped forward quickly.
Looking at that familiar appearance, Yang Qi's body trembled slightly. This middle-aged man was the number one leader of China, Li Lin, also known as Li Dada in the world!
But compared to when Yang Qi was studying, Li Dada looked a little older. After all, Li Lin was just an ordinary person. Sitting in the position of the number one leader, working day and night, if he was not properly maintained, he would probably age even faster. China is the most populous country on earth, and managing such a country is not an easy task.
Elder Xie looked at Li Lin who had come up to him, then looked at Yang Qi who was standing beside him and said, "Li Lin, let me introduce you, this is Yang Qi."
"oh?"
Although Li Lin had already guessed Yang Qi's identity, his eyes still lit up after Mr. Xie's introduction, and he quickly bowed and said, "Mr. Yang is really young and promising."
“Mr. Li, what are you doing…” Looking at Li Lin’s standard practitioner’s fist-clasping salute, Yang Qi’s face showed a hint of disbelief.
There wasn't the slightest fluctuation of energy on Li Lin's body. He was just an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary, yet he could actually perform the fist-clasping gesture of a cultivator.
"This is what I asked Long Wu for advice. How is it? Is it standard?" Li Lin laughed.
"I didn't expect Mr. Li to be so approachable, did you?"
Seeing Yang Qi stunned, Mr. Xie at the side couldn't help but chuckle.
Yang Qi nodded slightly. He really didn't expect that Li Lin would invite him to meet him and even take the initiative to learn the practitioner's fist-holding salute. This was enough to show how much Li Lin valued this meeting.
Seeing that Li Lin was so approachable, Yang Qi completely let go of the tension in his heart. Then, Li Lin seemed to ignore Yang Qi and asked about some of Mr. Xie's recent situation.
After chatting for a while, Mr. Xie left with Li Lin's guards, leaving only Yang Qi and Li Lin in the hall.
"Yang Qi, on behalf of China, I would like to thank you for the matter in the Tak Desert. With this relic, our Chinese technology finally has the opportunity to catch up with powerful countries like the United States." Li Lin looked at Yang Qi and said solemnly.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi immediately said seriously, "Mr. Li is too polite. This is what I should do as a Chinese."
Li Lin sighed, "That being said, when faced with huge interests, how many people can think from a national perspective?"
Yang Qi nodded slightly. He understood the meaning of Li Lin's words very well. However, changing this situation was not something that could be done overnight.
“Speaking of which, this time I was able to detect the US plan and find the ruins, I have to thank one more person.” Yang Qi suddenly said.
"who?"
"Wang Baiyi, a businessman, noticed something wrong when he was in the United States. He told me about it so that I could investigate further." Yang Qi said.
Wang Baiyi!
Li Lin nodded slightly and said with a smile, "We will never forget anyone who has made contributions to the country."
The reason why Yang Qi mentioned Wang Baiyi in front of Li Lin was that he hoped to repay Wang Baiyi's favor. With the help of China's top leaders, Wang Baiyi's future would definitely be much easier.
Li Lin looked at Yang Qi, his face becoming more solemn. "In addition to thanking Mr. Yang for his help with the ruins, I have another thing I want to ask Mr. Yang."
"Mr. Li, please speak." Yang Qi said hurriedly.
"Is the current cultivation world really so dangerous that a war could break out at any moment?" Li Lin said in a deep voice.
After these years of development, China has achieved remarkable results in all aspects. Whether it is the Chinese top leaders or the Chinese people at the grassroots level, they all hope for peace at this moment.
"Yes." Yang Qi nodded and said in a deep voice, "I believe that Mr. Li is very clear about the history of colonization. I can only say that the strong men over there are all outsiders. Now I don't know whether they can continue to send strong men here. If the Earth cannot compete with them, then..."
"I see!"
Li Lin nodded slightly. As the number one leader of China, he naturally knew that if he wanted peace, he first needed military force. Without sufficient military deterrence, peace would not exist.
"Do modern weapons pose a threat to the strong people in the cultivation world?" Li Lin asked again.
“Even the nuclear weapons of modern society pose little threat to outsiders.” Yang Qi said with a wry smile.
Technological weapons are not without threats to practitioners, but the current technology on Earth is not yet able to threaten the strong men in the Martial Honor Realm! Especially for those outsiders who have flying martial arts skills, the threat of modern weapons is even smaller. (To be continued)
