Fan Lingtian's personal strength is far inferior to Ren Zhongtian, and coupled with his aging body, his current strength might only slightly surpass Shen Junjie by a tiny bit.
However, with soone like Fan Lingtian overseeing the Yanhuang Soul, Huaxia could remain stable like a mountain after Ren Zhongtian's death. It shows that his strengths do not lie in personal prowess but in his keen eye for people and his grand, well-mannered strategies.
Being good at employing people is an essential quality of a leader. Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought Xiaofan was a reliable talent the second ti he saw him. Even with little contact after that, he tacitly accepted in his heart that he was the successor to the Yanhuang Soul headmaster.
He had long reached retirent age, and after being poisoned, his abilities have declined daily. Still, he doesn't want to drop the burden so quickly; he hopes to hold on a while longer until Xiaofan matures more, then hand over the Yanhuang Soul to him.
It's a pity his character is still like Ye Aotian's; after all, they are biological grandfather and grandson. He's a foolish child who could sacrifice everything for affection.
Now, Fan Lingtian has accepted it; as long as Xiaofan can return safely and bring back the information or destroy it before the Japanese develop it, Fan Lingtian will insist on applying to make Xiaofan one of the candidates for the headmaster of Yanhuang Soul.
Even though Xiaofan has been disqualified due to his current mistakes, don't think Fan Lingtian is just a pushover. Over the years, although he hasn't made private connections with the upper echelons, many people would still give Fan Lingtian so face. Whether successful or not, he will fully support Xiaofan.
Of course, smart people know that being the headmaster of Yanhuang Soul is no easy task; even with vast authority, the burden is also extrely heavy.
At that ti, whether Xiaofan can bear this heavy responsibility is hard to say. But there is no choice; if one wishes for Yanhuang Soul to continue to shine, Xiaofan is the best candidate, bar none. Eventually, in the future, he may beco, like Ren Zhongtian, a spiritual symbol in the hearts of all Yanhuang Soul warriors.
So, kid, have you played enough? Hurry back...
"Have so tea, old man, what are you thinking about?"
"Aren't you worried about your grandson?"
"He hasn't died yet, has he? Once I finish this pot, I'll rush to research the antidote for the White Scorpion that the Tang family's boy sent the formula for. We're probably just missing one ingredient: the three-color figs. Alas, Huaxia's ecological balance is so poor; mangrove forests are dwindling, and finding this thing is increasingly difficult."
"Hmm, I've already secretly sent people to other countries to search for it too. As soon as there's news, it'll be sent back imdiately. Hmm? Is this Biluochun?"
"Pu'er...good for the stomach."
"Oh, oh."
Two white-haired old n sat in the garden of the Ren Family, drinking tea and chatting. The Three Great Heavenly Kings of yesteryear were now missing one; for so, such is their mission. Perhaps, busy their entire lives, they can scarcely sit down and chat over tea with old friends. A lifeti, just like that, passes by.
Who could deny it? Now, Ye Aotian, with a household full of children and grandchildren, might soon even have great-grandchildren. It's truly enviable, especially having such an outstanding grandson like Xiaofan. Fan Lingtian can only be at a loss for words.
He doesn't bla Ye Aotian for leaving everything behind to retreat to the mountains with Cui. Everyone has their own choices; it doesn't an Ye Aotian doesn't love the country or would refuse to sacrifice himself. Now, coming out of retirent for his grandson already thoroughly proves his dedication to the country.
Though he appears calm on the surface, internally, he's undoubtedly more anxious about his precious grandson than anyone else.
Japan, DJ.
Bai Xue had fully awakened.
And now she was located in the palace arranged for her marriage to Lingze.
This house would beco her new ho from then on.
Though no formal ceremony was held today, the major dia had already reported it, and due to various reasons, the temple ceremony was omitted.
After all, Bai Xue's parents had already agreed to it.
Finding her so quickly was a face-saving achievent for Lingze in front of foreign journalists. However, a greater triumph would be to swiftly eliminate the Black Mantis.
Today was supposed to be a joyous day, yet Lingze was arranging for his subordinates to continue tracking the Black Mantis and the six impostor brides; whoever was caught would eventually lead to the others.
He returned to the bridal chamber at 10:50 PM after finishing his work.
It seed his lovely wife had not gone to bed early and was waiting for him in the room.
"Waiting for ?"
"Who else would I be waiting for?"
"True, from today, we are husband and wife. But before that, don't you have sothing to say to ?" Lingze poured two glasses of wine, handing one to Bai Xue.
"Since I woke up, you haven't asked a single thing—this is how you treat your wife?" Bai Xue inquired as she accepted the wine glass.
"I thought you didn't need..."
"I'm just a woman..."
"Alright, it was inconsiderate of . So... are you feeling unwell?" Lingze asked with sincerity.
"I'm fine."
"That's good..."
The conversation seed a bit odd, yet both were trying to gauge the other's attitude.
"Caught anyone yet?"
"No, today in the car, what did the person who took you away say?" Lingze asked softly.
"That person is called Li San, code na Angry Caterpillar in XG."
"Hmm, I know him." Lingze nodded.
"He said he wanted to take away, and then I felt dizzy and passed out..." Bai Xue said truthfully.
"That's it?" Lingze frowned.
"You don't believe ? Or are you interrogating your wife?" Bai Xue seed a bit displeased with Lingze's attitude.
"We have no feelings for each other; on the surface, we're a married couple, but in reality, it's just a cooperative relationship."
"Then you're mistaken."
"Hmm?" Lingze asked curiously.
"I'm just a woman. No matter who the partner is, there will co a day when I marry and live my whole life with my husband. Regardless of whether there's affection between us, I will certainly fulfill all my duties as a wife. Do you understand what I an?"
"YES, it seems I've married a good wife," Lingze replied softly with a smile.
"Hear out: likewise, you must fulfill your responsibilities as a husband. No matter how many won you have outside, this ho is always ruled by . And you must fulfill your duty as a husband, protect , and take good care of this ho. Since it's unavoidable, Lingze still makes a good choice at least; with his current status, he suits very well."
"Of course..."
"Of course not..."
Just as Lingze, with a smile, prepared to answer Bai Xue, a discordant voice ca in from the door outside. Upon hearing this familiar voice, Bai Xue and Lingze exchanged amazed looks.
