Two days ago.
An unknown encrypted video eting was quietly held.
There were four people participating in the eting. Everyone sat quietly in the darkness on the video, consisting of both n and won.
The Shadow removed his mask and baseball cap, making a rare appearance.
He looked at everyone on the screen with a smile: "Does anyone have anything to say?"
In the darkness, soone said: "Mr. Shadow, there have been too many incidents involving you, you’ve been a bit too active. If not for your unique abilities, I’d almost suspect soone is impersonating you. First, you snatched Chen Yu’s garden, then Li Bingxi’s garden. It’s a rare sight to see Mr. Shadow personally involved. Is sothing about to happen?"
The Shadow smiled and said: "Don’t you all already have your own guesses?"
A figure sitting in the darkness suddenly leaned forward: "Qing Chen, indeed is the son of the Family Head, your brother, correct?"
The Shadow was silent for a long ti before smiling broadly: "Yes."
Everyone watching him during his mont of silence felt imnse pressure, as if countless thoughts were spinning in his head each ti he paused.
The fact that the Shadow could admit it ant he had thought through what would happen next.
And all of this must be closely tied to the factions within the Qing’s Family.
The Qing’s Family is about to change.
The outside world has always been skeptical about the news of the Shadow’s impending death. After all, such a powerful demigod, how could he simply die?
But now, the sudden change in the Shadow’s behavior confird the news.
Soone in the darkness said: "Qing Chen is a Ti Traveler."
The Shadow said with a smile: "I know."
"Oh," soone asked: "So doesn’t this an the Family Head’s son has already been replaced by a Ti Traveler, that he’s not the original person? Why is Mr. Shadow so calm?"
"He is still himself," the Shadow said: "You don’t have to worry about that."
"Are you trying to make him the next Shadow?" soone asked seriously.
"If that’s all it was, I wouldn’t need to have this eting with all of you," the Shadow said with interest: "Can anyone stop ?"
Everyone in the eting was silent.
The Shadow was still that powerful Shadow, even disdainful of disguises.
At this ti, soone asked: "So, what does Mr. Shadow want us to do?"
The Shadow smiled and said: "I need you to bet everything, board the new chariot, bind life and death together, and head to the end of the world. Rember, a new Qing’s Family is about to be born, and betting everything is your entry ticket. When I say everything, I an your reputation, your trump cards, your life and family, not a single thing less. Of course, fate rewards the wise."
"That’s my brother, and I’ll hand everything over to him before I die."
After speaking, the Shadow turned off the video.
The remaining three sat silently in the darkness, not communicating with each other, until ten minutes later when they each left.
Qing Kun stood on his balcony in City 5, smoking a cigarette. The stubble on his face made him look particularly weathered.
After smoking five cigarettes, he dialed an encrypted satellite phone, and his previously weary expression suddenly turned into a smile: "Son, how have you been lately?"
Qing Yi: "Not bad, just a bit tired. I used to watch as the gentleman handled PCA Central Intelligence Agency’s affairs with ease, but now that I’m doing it myself, I realize it’s not like that at all."
Qing Kun indulgently smiled and said: "Being tired is normal. You’re still young, you should experience so hardship, you know? Back when I was..."
Qing Yi impatiently said: "Hey, a true hero doesn’t boast about past victories. I’ve heard your stories so many tis my ears have calluses."
Qing Kun: "Alright, alright, I won’t talk about it."
Qing Yi curiously asked: "Why did you suddenly call ? Is there sothing wrong?"
Qing Kun thought for a mont and asked: "There’s sothing I want your opinion on. If you had to choose now, would you rather play safe or help Qing Chen? I an, if Qing Chen might die, if he dies, you and your father might die too."
Qing Yi was stunned for a mont, then suddenly asked: "Dad, do you listen to ?"
Qing Kun extinguished the cigarette butt: "Why should I listen to a little brat like you?"
Qing Yi’s face on the other end of the line turned cold: "I’ve told you, I’m not a kid anymore."
Qing Yi hated being treated like a child the most, which is why he deliberately cultivated his own depth to differentiate himself from his father, who was always cursing and swearing.
Qing Kun said: "You still haven’t answered ."
Qing Yi said: "Dad, help the gentleman."
"Bet everything, even if it ans death?"
"Yes, bet everything, even if it ans death."
Qing Kun was silent for a long ti: "Okay."
After speaking, he muttered and swore: "You’ve been bought over by a few Dragon Fishes, spineless kid."
He hung up the phone, recalling the words the Shadow said in the video earlier.
This ti, it’s truly about betting everything to make a choice.
In fact, neither side is a good option.
So in that case, choose the answer that makes the son happy.
...
...
In the wilderness, Qing Chen and others were getting farther away from the Faceless Army.
He looked at the backs of those people and, for so reason, suddenly felt a bit moved.
One must know that every decision made during this pursuit had far-reaching consequences because this choice was fundantally a stance on power.
