Chapter 592: Chapter 592: Li Yanran’s Request

After the car arrived in the Provincial City, Lin Dong gained a deeper understanding of the Dragon King War God.

Upon the upcoming meeting with this mythic figure from the War Department, Lin Dong also began to feel apprehensive.

Not quite fear, but respect was undoubtedly present!

After getting out of the car, Lin Dong bid farewell to Li Yanran and Li Qing.

As they were parting, Li Yanran suddenly said, "Lin Dong, can I speak to you alone for a moment?"

"What’s the matter? Is there something else?" Lin Dong asked, puzzled.

Without waiting for his reply, Li Yanran pulled Lin Dong aside.

Then, she said, "Lin Dong, in my life, I’ve never asked favors of anyone. But this time, I’m begging you, can you not come to the Capital City half a year from now?"

Lin Dong thought of the promise he had made to Lin Tiance for a half-year later and replied somberly, "I will definitely go!"

"Must you go?" Li Yanran said, her face showing sadness.

"I must!" Lin Dong insisted.

He had to demand an explanation from the Lin family for everything they had done to him, and he would do it half a year from now.

"Li Yanran, are you worried about your cousin?"

Li Yanran was taken aback, then gave a bitter smile and shook her head.

"Listen, Li Yanran. Although we previously cooperated, it was a mutual necessity. You and Aunt Qing helped me obtain the Thousand Year Snow Lotus, and I helped cure your sickness."

"Now that our cooperation is over, we each go our separate ways. As for you convincing me to break a promise, that is impossible!"

"A real man’s word is his bond, how could I break a promise lightly? In the Capital City, half a year from now, it will be either Lin Tiance’s death or my own!"

Having said that, Lin Dong turned around and left without further ado.

Meanwhile, Li Yanran, watching Lin Dong’s resolute departure, had an even sadder smile on her face.

"Fool, I’m worried about you. Don’t think that just because you’ve made a breakthrough, you are invincible in this world."

"Even if you really beat my cousin Lin Tiance, what then? It will cost you your life because behind my cousin stands not just him alone."

"There’s also the entire Lin family, and King Kunlun!"

Unknown to Lin Dong, Li Yanran was deep in thought as he had already left with Ah Lang.

At that moment, Li Qing approached Li Yanran and sighed, "Yanran, you can’t stop them."

"They are natural enemies. From the moment of their birth, they were fated to be lifelong foes. Between the two of them, only one can live!"

"Who do you hope that would be?"

Li Yanran was stunned, then shouted, "Isn’t it obvious? Of course, I hope it’s my cousin who lives."

"Really?" Li Qing asked.

Li Yanran turned away, her eyes reddening.

Really?

Was that truly the answer in the depths of her heart?

...

At that moment in the Jiangnan Province War Department, within the residence of the Southern King Xiao Jiu.

At this moment, Xiao Mansion’s visible guards alone numbered three thousand.

These three thousand were the elite of the War Department.

Each was an armed martial artist, and this force of three thousand could decimate an army of thirty thousand if they entered the battlefield.

And these were just the guards in the open; there were several hundred more in secret.

These were the top experts from the War Department, with more than half possessing Grandmaster Strength.

The reason Xiao Mansion had such security at present was because it hosted a god from the War Department.

That was the Dragon King War God!

The Dragon King War God was currently sitting in a wheelchair, playing chess in the garden of Xiao Mansion with the Southern King.

"Xiao Jiu, after all these years, you’ve made some improvement in chess. You used to last only a few dozen moves against me. Now, you can go beyond a hundred moves," the Dragon King War God said softly.

Even though he was suffering from a serious sickness and was covered with a blanket, his eyes and eyebrows were still sharp like chiseled stone.

The Southern King laughed bitterly, "Lord Dragon King, in this world, there are few who can beat you in chess. I can even draw a match with national players, but I’m completely outclassed by you."

The Dragon King War God smilingly said, "Chess, like war, requires patience. I once had a good friend to play with, but alas, it’s as if they’ve vanished from the world without a trace."

Suddenly, he asked, "Has that kid not arrived yet?"

"I’ll make a call and check!" The Southern King quickly said.

"Ah."

With that, the Southern King made another phone call.

As soon as the call connected, the Southern King asked, "Lin Dong, where are you now?"

Lin Dong was already close to Xiao Mansion at that moment.

"I’m nearly there!"

"Okay, I’ll send Linglong to meet you outside," the Southern King said.

Five minutes later, Lin Dong arrived at the door of Xiao Mansion, where Ye Linglong dressed in a silver battle suit was waiting.

Seeing Lin Dong, Ye Linglong displayed a smile and said, "Lin Dong, you’ve arrived. The Dragon King War God has been waiting for you for a long time. Hurry and follow me inside."

Lin Dong nodded and in a low voice asked, "Sister Linglong, do you know what the Dragon King War God wants to see me for?"

Ye Linglong pondered for a moment and replied, "It might be about something to do with the Dragon Group, but I’m not exactly sure."

"You’ll know once you’ve met him."

Suddenly, Ye Linglong leaned in close to Lin Dong and whispered:

"It’s been a while since we last saw each other. Did you miss me?"

Lin Dong hastily said, "Yes."

Ye Linglong blushed and said indignantly, "You flatterer, always courting every woman you meet, did you really miss me? I know you’ve been to Shi County with Li Yanran. You probably didn’t want to return, did you?"

As she spoke, she pinched Lin Dong’s waist lightly.

"Don’t be in a rush to leave tonight. Come to my place; I have something to tell you," Ye Linglong said.

Lin Dong nodded, feeling puzzled about what Ye Linglong might want to discuss with him.

She isn’t planning to ’devour’ him, is she?

At this moment, Lin Dong had already entered Xiao Mansion.

From afar, he could see the man seated in the wheelchair.

The Dragon King War God!

The Dragon King War God was now looking in Lin Dong’s direction...
