Chapter 163: Civil Strife
Ten minutes have passed.
Xuanyuan Qinghuan raised his wrist and looked at his watch, silently counting the time in his heart.
Now she sits quietly in the hall of Building 2 in the Liuquan area, her body stiffly holding a glass of water, except for occasionally raising her wrist to look at the time, she has no extra movements.
When she was quiet, she was like a statue without the slightest life, only tears kept falling down her soft face, dripping into the water glass she held in her hand, rippling and rippling.
The hall was full of people, countless figures were walking back and forth restlessly, and some people gathered together to discuss something, but in any case, this group of Xuanyuan people who had just come to Kyushu City from Africa and had not fully adapted to the domestic environment, after what happened today, everyone was more or less dazed and nervous in their hearts.
It's like the sky is falling, for so many years, the figure that has always protected them has fallen, and for a while, everyone in Xuanyuan's vein seems to have lost their purpose in life, as if there is no point in doing anything.
In the past, when Xuanyuan Long was hidden, as long as he gave a simple order, everyone here would rack their brains to carry it out as the highest task, no matter whether it was a sword mountain or a sea of fire in front of them, they would rush over without hesitation.
This is akin to the frenzy of faith in general.
Now that the characters they believe in for decades are about to leave forever, despair, helplessness, panic, and all kinds of emotions instantly envelop them, and the sky above the second building in the Liuquan area is sad and sad, but countless negative emotions are also slowly fermenting.
Able to keep calm, there were only three people in the entire hall.
Xuanyuan Qinghuan was not so much calm, but numb, sitting in place like a stone, except for occasionally raising her wrist, there was no extra movement, her eyes were dull and she looked at the ground, sad to death, as if everything here had nothing to do with her.
Xuanyuan Qingchen sat on the other side, this registered disciple who is responsible for everything under Xuanyuan Longyin's name on weekdays, although he has been calling Xuanyuan Longyin master for so many years, called Xuanyuan Qinghuan Young Master, but in this team, he is a real senior brother-like existence, with a high prestige, after Xuanyuan Longyin fell, now some people have begun to subconsciously gather towards Xuanyuan Qingchen.
Xuanyuan Qingchen has an ordinary figure, but he is unusually strong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, bulging muscles all over his body, full of strength, when frowning and silent, it can bring people an obvious deterrent, of course, as his own person, especially when Xuanyuan Longyin fell, the person who wrote that took the initiative to surround Xuanyuan Qingchen has subconsciously regarded this deterrence as the same thing as a sense of security.
It's just that this senior brother of Xuanyuan is obviously not very interested in the distribution of power after Xuanyuan Longyin's death, or not for the time being, he just frequently looked up at Xuanyuan Longyin's room upstairs, with eagerness and anxiety on his face, and his heart was completely placed on the old man upstairs.
As an X-level master, Xuanyuan Qingchen has reserved capital, in the case that most of the people in the Xuanyuan line are hairy in their hearts, he doesn't have to worry about anything, and he is a registered disciple of Xuanyuan Longyin, and he has been loyal to Xuanyuan in his life, since the teacher said that in the future, Xuanyuan will be based on Lin Xuanyuan, then he will naturally work hard for Lin Xuanyuan in the future, and his strength has reached his point, no matter which organization he is in, no matter how big the organization, he can easily occupy the right to speak.
So he didn't worry about his future, all his thoughts were on Xuanyuan Longyin.
The Aries of the royal family has just said that the master's situation is not optimistic, and now it is likely that it has reached the last moment, and when he thinks that he will never see the old man again in the future, Rao is Xuanyuan Qingchen's steely will, and he can't help but have red eyes at this time.
The crowd around him buzzed in his ears like flies, Xuanyuan Qingchen's brows furrowed more and more, and his originally calm heart gradually began to unbalance.
In the hall, the third one who can stay calm is Lin Shushu.
It's just that at this time, there is also a group of people around him, trying to get close to him.
Lin Shushu is Xuanyuan Longyin's apprentice who has only recently been accepted, and after receiving the apprentice, the two rarely meet, and now Xuanyuan Longyin is about to die, Lin Shushu's heart is really not sad, and he is planning to stay in the hall to fulfill his obligations as an apprentice, but as a result, some people in Xuanyuan's vein directly surround him.
There are very few people around Lin Shushu who are martial artists in the Xuanyuan lineage, but they are definitely the most well-informed people in the Xuanyuan lineage, these people are men and women, young and old, all they are in charge of on weekdays are some industries under the name of Xuanyuan Longyin, a world-shaking strength, decades of silent development, Xuanyuan Longyin's family background does not look as prominent as the royal family, and the developed intelligence organization always lags behind in transmitting and collecting intelligence, but if you look at it from another point of view, no matter how ridiculous the intelligence organization created by Xuanyuan Longyin, it is always of an international nature, in the dark world, even if it is not a first-line intelligence agency, but after all, it is stronger than some ordinary second-rate organizations, and the massive amount of money that can support this intelligence organization also needs to be calculated in hundreds of millions.
Therefore, although Xuanyuan Longyin's own family background is not a consortium, if he is a top rich man, it is definitely not reluctant.
At this time, these people around Lin Shushu are the people who are responsible for taking care of the daily business for Xuanyuan Longyin, although it is difficult for them to get anything after Xuanyuan Longyin's death, even if their current position is enough for them to make a lot of money, so they immediately found Lin Shushu, who is said to be the same brother as Lin Xuanyuan, the king of war, and planned to take his line, indirectly get in touch with Lin Xuanyuan, and stabilize their current status.
To a certain extent, this group of people is far worse than the group of people around Xuanyuan Qingchen, who at least has the spirit of a martial artist, and they are also chosen to hold out of concern about the future situation of Xuanyuan Yimai.
But the group of people around Lin Shushu are all businessmen who only have interests in their eyes.
Of course, in addition to Xuanyuan Qinghuan, Xuanyuan Qingchen and Lin Shushu, and the two teams around the latter two, there is a third group in the hall that is condensing.
They intentionally or unintentionally occupy the center of the hall, which is the closest place to the stairs, and in this team, the leader is a tall, middle-aged man with a beard, if Xuanyuan Qingchen is the senior brother of Xuanyuan's lineage, the beard is the second.
The strength of the quasi-X-level master, if Xuanyuan Longyin is not counted, in the Xuanyuan lineage, except for Xuanyuan Qinghuan and Xuanyuan Qingchen, no one is his opponent, over the years, Xuanyuan Qingchen has become more and more stable, almost rarely makes a move, but looks at the overall situation.
Xuanyuan Qinghuan has been trained in the dark world, taking the killer route, codenamed Wandering Soul, and now it has been nearly ten years since his debut, the rise of the ghost is very ordinary, in the past ten years, he has taken over hundreds of assassination missions, none of them missed, some are gang bosses, some are national dignitaries, some are the heirs of the consortium, and even some military giants of some countries, the fame of the ghost has also spread throughout the dark world in success, and it has become the number one killer in the dark world killer list today.
And in stark contrast to Xuanyuan Qinghuan's road, it is the beard.
He took the route of a mercenary, as soon as he debuted, he directly slaughtered a quasi-first-line mercenary group that was rampant in Africa, and his reputation was shocked, and then in less than half a year, he founded the War Tiger Mercenary Group from a single mercenary, and now, in the mercenary circle of the dark world, the War Tiger Mercenary Group is definitely a well-deserved overlord, all the members of the War Tiger Mercenary Group have exceeded 1,000 people, all of whom are elites who have undergone strict military training, and their members' activities are also extremely extensive, West Africa, East Africa, Eastern Europe, West Asia, South America, almost all traces and branches of the War Tiger Mercenary Group can be foundγ
In the case that there are only seven world-shaking supremes, and there are not many X-level masters, the huge dark world is far away, and the quasi-X-level masters whose combat power is infinitely close to the X-level masters are definitely well-deserved grandmasters, and the War Tiger Mercenary Group founded by the code name Silver Tiger has a beard in charge, and when they occasionally encounter big trouble, Xuanyuan Qingchen or even Xuanyuan Qinghuan have made a move, and the development in the mercenary world can be described as invincible.
For more than ten years, the development of the War Tiger Mercenary Group has become more and more standardized, the internal management of the mercenary group is strict, and the hierarchy is clear.
Xuanyuan Qinghuan's murder business, Xuanyuan Qingchen's intelligence business, and bearded mercenary business can be said to be the three most important economic sources of Xuanyuan Yimai in the dark world over the years.
Among the three major sources of income, the bearded mercenary group creates the most wealth every year.
After a long time, the beard codenamed Silver Tiger inevitably developed an arrogant and arrogant personality, and on weekdays in the Xuanyuan First Vein, except for Xuanyuan Longyin, he couldn't even listen to Xuanyuan Qingchen's words, as for Xuanyuan Qinghuan...
He naturally listened to Xuanyuan Qinghuan's words, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that he listened to Xuanyuan Qinghuan's instructions, not because of his awe of the young master, but out of a man's flattery for a woman.
It's just that he has never done anything excessive to Xuanyuan Qinghuan, so Xuanyuan Qinghuan endured it.
And the senior brother Xuanyuan Qingchen has a generous temperament, and he will try to tolerate this disobedient junior brother on weekdays, so that after a long time, the beard that had some scruples will become even more arrogant.
The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds.
In the same way, no one can expect that the people within the Xuanyuan lineage are generous, kind and humble gentlemen, and the good and the bad have always been the norm within the organization.
Moreover, in addition to being arrogant, the beard is respectful and loving to Xuanyuan Longyin from the heart, and he has not done anything to be sorry for Xuanyuan Yimai, but has created billions of wealth for Xuanyuan Yimai over the years, so all along, including Xuanyuan Longyin, has some resigned meaning to him, and rarely restrains him on weekdays.
People like Beard are easy to annoy, but in the same way, such people are also easy to like some people.
Such a small circle can't be seen much on weekdays, but on this day, this third circle that is separated from Xuanyuan Qingchen, who represents Xuanyuan Longyin, and Lin Shushu, who represents the palace of the God of War to some extent, suddenly seems a little dazzling.
Is this tantamount to disobeying Xuanyuan Qingchen and not getting close to the God of War Palace?
Self-reliant portal?
Many people's eyes swept over the expressionless beard standing in the center of the hall with their hands on their chests, and their eyes flickered.
"It's been so long, and I don't know how the master is, why hasn't Lin Xuanyuan come out yet?"
Beside the beard, a man of the same age as the beard frowned and said, he wore a pair of glasses, looking sven, but once he spoke, he always had a gloomy feeling with people, he was one of the ten SSS-level masters cultivated by Xuanyuan Longyin, SSS+ level strength, was one of the first people to follow the beard to fight the world, and now he is the captain of a brigade of the War Tiger Mercenary Group, sitting in the West Asia branch all the year round, codenamed glasses.
"Yes, it's been so long, the master's situation is a little unoptimistic, doesn't Lin Xuanyuan plan to let us see the master's last face? This is too much. β
"This is in other people's territory, or don't make any extraneous branches, I didn't see those guards outside, tsk, the palace of the god of war, it's really a big shelf, now that people are powerful, what can we do? β
"Hmph, I don't know what the master thinks, he actually handed over Xuanyuan to Lin Xuanyuan, what is this? Have we become vassals of the royal family and the God of War Palace? It's hard for the brothers to agree to such a decision, right?"
"Agreed? How is it possible, ha, look at the young boy over there, it seems to be the one called Lin Shushu? To put it nicely, the master's closed disciple, in fact, is not Lin Xuanyuan's dog, after we came here, he didn't show up, as soon as he came out today, someone immediately surrounded him, this kid is like this, as soon as Lin Xuanyuan comes out, what will they become?"
"Have you really become a vassal of the God of War Palace?"
"How can this be?"
The gossip discussion is endless, everyone's tone is not good, Xuanyuan Longyin fell, sadness turned into irritability, these people led by the beard are the representatives of the mood of irritability, for Xuanyuan Longyin, what they didn't say was respect from the heart, but for Lin Xuanyuan was about to become their supreme leader, they couldn't accept it, this can't be said to be proud or irritable, but this kind of thinking really exists.
The beard was still expressionless, his hands were wrapped around his chest, and the people close to him were talking about yin and yang weirdly, without saying a word.
As a result, these people are discussing louder and louder, their tone is becoming more and more negative, and the content of their speech is becoming more and more excessive.
The sound gradually spread throughout the hall, and it continued to spread.
On the other side, Xuanyuan Qingchen listened to the voice in the center of the hall, his originally tightly frowning brows were completely tightened, and he glanced at his beard helplessly.
As soon as the master was critically ill, these people jumped out to make trouble, openly and secretly expressing their disobedience to the master's orders, what is this like?
If it weren't for the absolute loyalty of these people to their masters and Xuanyuan Yiline, Xuanyuan Qingchen would have to wonder what kind of intentions these people had.
Although some are reluctant, there are some things that still have to be said.
After all, compared to the arrogant and arrogant beard who thought that the War Tiger Mercenary Group was invincible in the world, Xuanyuan Qingchen knew more about the God of War King Lin Xuanyuan, what the God of War Palace's palace and the royal family meant.
He slowly stood up, walked over, frowned, and said: "Qinghu, restrain these people, the master's order has come down, and it is likely to be his last order, why do you still have different opinions? If you have an opinion, why don't you say it in front of the master just now? Do you know what you are doing now?"
In Xuanyuan Qingchen's majestic gaze, the beard sneered, turned his head directly, and said nothing.
Behind the beard, everyone saw the reaction of the second senior brother, and suddenly everyone spoke louder.
Xuanyuan Qinghuan listened to the increasingly unspeakable quarrel, and didn't say a word, just raised his wrist and looked at his watch again.
It's been twenty minutes.
In the other direction, Lin Shushu, who was surrounded by the crowd, glanced coldly at the beard and the others, as if he was looking at a group of dead people.
