Chapter 863: Chapter 862: ”The Demeanor and Wisdom of 4 Elders

The Number One Leader, Vice Chairman Yang, Elder Jiang, and Elder Hu, these four people can be said to hold the entire situation of China in their hands. In the eyes of anyone, in the entire Mortal World, they hold a position of paramount importance. They are the ones who can truly direct the course of the nation.

Ye Tianchen’s attitude towards these four elders is neither humble nor arrogant, and he respects them greatly. They have selflessly dedicated themselves to the nation and the people. In Ye Tianchen’s heart, such people are worthy of respect. Moreover, the Number One Leader and Vice Chairman Yang have always taken care of the Ye family. His father had always aspired to be a good and outstanding official. If it weren’t for the Number One Leader and Vice Chairman Yang, Ye Tianchen’s father, Ye Hong, would have had his political career halted long ago without a chance of advancing in the Capital City. This is something that many people could not achieve despite a lifetime of struggles in politics.

”It seems you have already received some information, so I’ll get straight to the point. The third War King who defected from China, Xu Zigang, is likely no longer in Country T. I suspect he has returned to China and is planning to create an event that will shock the world!” Ye Tianchen said seriously and solemnly.

The Number One Leader nodded and said, ”That’s correct, we’ve also received information that Xu Zigang is likely not in Country T. Cang Lang and Yan Long were on a futile trip, and as for Xu Zigang’s whereabouts, we still don’t know. He has probably already infiltrated back into China, and his intentions are obvious: to take revenge on the nation and society. We will not let his plot succeed.”

”Xu Zigang’s matter is indeed tricky. His power has grown to an incredible level. According to our deductions, Yang Gui, once one of the three powers of China’s Black Force, met Xu Zigang after fleeing the Capital City. The two colluded in Country T, clandestinely doing many things harmful to the nation and the people over the years.” Vice Chairman Yang said worriedly.

Ye Tianchen froze for a moment. It was hard to find people in the entire world that could gather together these four significant figures who could shape the destiny of the nation and make them feel a headache. Of course, Ye Tianchen did not expect that he was the only person who could receive a joint meeting from these four absolute big figures, something even the President of Country M, Hei Bama, could not enjoy.

Upon hearing Vice Chairman Yang’s words, Ye Tianchen felt a shock in his heart. He suddenly had a bad premonition and thought of something terrifying. Despite the lack of clues or confirmation, such inferences often could be frightening.

Double Saber King Yang Gui was once one of the three strongest individuals in China’s Black Force. At Nine Dragon Mountain, Ye Tianchen wanted to eliminate Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui. Although he fought fiercely with Hu Changhe and Qin Mingshan, Yang Gui also made a move. Ye Tianchen had not truly measured how strong Yang Gui was, but it was estimated that he was in the Martial Venerate Realm. This realm, in the sparsely populated Ancient Martial World on Earth where martial artists were rare, was considered quite powerful. To traverse any place in the Mortal World with ease would be easy. If Yang Gui indeed had connections with Xu Zigang, then how could the once powerful Xu Zigang be weak now? Yang Gui became a martial artist; what about Xu Zigang? He might have become an even stronger martial artist than Yang Gui. At Nine Dragon Mountain, Ye Tianchen wanted to use all means to leverage the power of the ”Holy Heaven Prison” to shock-kill Hu Changhe, Qin Mingshan, and Yang Gui, but some mysterious force rescued them. Even ”Holy Heaven Prison” couldn’t trap them. Who rescued Hu Changhe and the others? If it was Xu Zigang, then he is extremely dangerous, and Ye Tianchen must be careful.

”This is bad, four seniors, Xu Zigang may have already returned to China, genuinely plotting how to take revenge on the nation!” Ye Tianchen quickly said as he came to his senses.

”Xu Zigang might have returned to China?”

”This matter is no small thing.”

”What exactly does he intend to do?”

”Hei Mian, immediately send out the best intelligence gatherer among the Heavenly Gang War Generals...”

Ye Tianchen nodded. The four senior figures, who could shape the destiny of the nation, were indeed calm and composed. They exuded an extraordinary demeanor. Even when he speculated that Xu Zigang might have returned to China, he was shocked and worried inside, yet the Number One Leader and the others were still able to analyze calmly. These four, indeed, are highly respected veterans.

”Four seniors, this is just my conjecture. I hope I’m wrong because if Xu Zigang really has close ties with Yang Gui and has returned to China, then not only the nation and innocent citizens will be in danger, but even you will be in danger...” Ye Tianchen said seriously.

”Ye Tianchen, what nonsense are you talking about? How could anything happen to these leaders? This is Zhongnanhai. No one could possibly break in, not even you.” Hei Mian said displeased.

Ye Tianchen knew Hei Mian would be unhappy. In his heart, the leaders were like the heavens. In his eyes, the interests of the nation and the people come above all else. He is someone willing to sacrifice his life to protect the country, a person capable of selfless dedication. Hearing that the four top leaders were in danger, of course, would make him very unhappy.

”Tianchen, just speak freely; no outsiders are here,” the Number One Leader said seriously, looking at Ye Tianchen.

”Four seniors, I also do not wish for such things to happen. However, Xu Zigang’s strength is really formidable. In this world, there are many incredible things, extraordinary people, such as Ancient Martial Artists and even stronger martial artists. In the face of powerful martial artists, things like nations are but illusions,” Ye Tianchen nodded and said.

”I have heard of martial artists. They are indeed very powerful. They do not exist on the same plane as us ordinary people,” Elder Jiang frowned and said.

”However, according to information over the years, martial artists reside only within the Ancient Martial World. They almost never come out because they and we are fundamentally from two different worlds, with no grievances or grudges. They will not harm innocents,” Elder Hu added.

”Elder Jiang, Elder Hu, Number One Leader, Vice Chairman Yang, to be honest with you, not long ago, I experienced a big battle at Nine Dragon Mountain, which is now destroyed and vanished. The people I fought against were precisely the top three powerhouses of the Chinese Black Force. To my surprise, they all became potent martial artists. I am quite lucky they haven’t stirred big trouble in China over the years; otherwise, it would be unimaginable,” Ye Tianchen said, surprised at heart.

Hu Changhe and Qin Mingshan, these two individuals, had likely become martial artists many years ago and reached the Martial Venerate Realm level. To dominate the entire Mortal World posed absolutely no problem. However, they had always been searching for the Main Dragon Vein of Earth. That was their main objective. If Yang Gui had appeared earlier to instigate them against the leaders, it would indeed have been a crisis.

”Yang Gui became a martial artist. If he has connections with Xu Zigang, Xu Zigang should also have become a martial artist and a powerful one at that. If Xu Zigang wants to take revenge on the nation, Yang Gui might join him in targeting us old fellows,” Elder Jiang remarked after some thought.

”Martial artists are formidable; no nation’s power could possibly contend with them. If Xu Zigang truly became a martial artist, sooner or later, he will retaliate against the nation and target us old fellows. What we must do is minimize the nation’s losses, reduce the harm to the people, and on this basis, eliminate Xu Zigang. As for us old fellows, it’s no great loss if we die,” Elder Hu said with a calm smile.

”Back then, the Xu family betrayed the nation, trying to incite war. We had no choice but to let the Heavenly Gang War Generals exterminate the Xu family. Now Xu Zigang has grown stronger and wants revenge. It should be against us old fellows. I think we should make decisions early; if anything unexpected happens to us, the nation must still be governed without internal or external chaos, which would harm innocent civilians the most,” the Number One Leader nodded and said.

”Let’s arrange some things over these days to avoid unexpected incidents that could cause panic within and outside the nation,” Vice Chairman Yang said in agreement.

Ye Tianchen was truly impressed with these four senior figures. After learning such news, they did not become anxious, shocked, nor panic-stricken. Instead, they calmly thought about things, not considering their own safety. They only thought about how to minimize Xu Zigang’s damage to the nation, reduce harm to the people, and ensure that if something were to suddenly happen to them, the nation and the people would not fall into chaos.

”No way, the four leaders are overthinking. No matter how powerful someone is, they can’t breach the Zhongnanhai defense perimeter. No one can do it,” Hei Mian said, unbelieving.

”Hei Mian, don’t speak anymore. It’s not that we’re being pessimistic; it’s just that we must acknowledge certain threats. Martial artists are different from Ancient Martial Artists and Superpower Users; they truly have the capability to destroy the world. We are not discouraged or despondent, just considering various aspects to prepare. After all, the four of us decide the fate of the nation. Since we are in this position, we must think more for the nation and the people, ensuring no mistakes,” the Number One Leader said with a smile to Hei Mian. (To be continued.
