Due to Qin Lang and the others' cleanup, the crisis in the south of Hua Xia was temporarily alleviated. However, the distance between the military and the forces in the underworld became clearer. This was because Old Master Bao had completely withdrawn from the upper echelons of the military, and General Yan and Old Master Bao had different opinions.
Qin Lang originally didn't want to get involved in military affairs, but when General Yan extended an invitation, he still accepted it. This was because the person who extended the invitation this time was not General Yan, but the number one chief of Hua Xia.
Since it was an invitation from the number one, Qin Lang naturally couldn't refuse it. He decided to talk to the number one chief to understand the true thoughts of the upper echelons. If it could make the situation of Hua Xia better, Qin Lang was willing to work hard for it.
Qin Lang went to the Imperial Capital alone.
The Imperial Capital was still as prosperous as before because it wasn't affected by the calamity. However, Qin Lang could clearly feel that the city was less impetuous than it used to be. Instead, it had gained a sense of history. Qin Lang knew that it wasn't the city that changed, but the people's hearts.
Although the calamity of the world hadn't affected the Hua Xia nation for the time being, almost everyone could feel the threat from the calamity. This was because from television and online media, they could see the horrifying scenes of various countries on Earth being ravaged by otherworld creatures. Now, the entire Earth was almost unrecognizable. The Hua Xia nation was probably the most intact country, but even so, the South China Sea was still invaded by the creatures of Hell, bringing about great destruction.
In the South China Sea, the place that symbolized the center of power in Hua Xia, Qin Lang met the number one chief who was busy with numerous affairs every day.
Qin Lang was very calm. There were no so-called tears in his eyes, nor was there any so-called extreme excitement. His state of mind was as calm as one. This was the so-called willpower of a cultivator.
"Mister Qin Lang, please take a seat." After the secretary served tea to Qin Lang, she left the office. This was probably specially instructed by the number one.
There did not seem to be anyone else here. However, Qin Lang could feel at least ten strong Mental Energy locking him down. Among them, there were a few that were especially strong. Qin Lang reckoned that their owners had already reached the Martial Sage level.
As expected, there were still hidden experts in the South China Sea. Just like the experts in the Imperial Palace, many people thought that the experts were among the common people, but that was not necessarily the case. Since ancient times, there were some top experts who lived in seclusion in the Imperial Palace to cultivate.
"Little Qin, you must feel a little abrupt for me to invite you here today. In the past, I wanted to find a chance to talk to you, but I was busy, so I could only let General Yan communicate with you. In the end, he even messed things up. "Number One's tone was amiable and approachable.
The higher a person's position was, the more approachable he or she would be. However, this was only a manifestation of the art of emperors, or it could be said that it was a kind of self-cultivation of those in power. If you really thought that those in power were all kind and friendly, then you would be gravely mistaken.
When it was peaceful, it was like a warm spring breeze; when it was violent, it was like a violent storm. This was the true face of a superior. It was the most basic thing to use both kindness and power.
"Everyone has their own ambitions. It's not like I messed things up." Qin Lang's tone was still calm.
"I can hear that. There is still resentment." Number One chuckled. "It's inevitable for young people to be like this. I completely understand. Now that the time for overseas visits has been greatly reduced, I have more time. Since you are here today, let's have an open and honest talk. I also want to know what Hua Xia's Jianghu is like. "
"You want to know about Hua Xia's Jianghu? Alright, I will tell you about Hua Xia's Jianghu today. " Qin Lang said, "In the past, when people talked about Jianghu, they would definitely be dismissive, because the people in Jianghu were a group of people who could not be seen in public. Since the people in Jianghu are far away from Jianghu, there is naturally no need to worry about the affairs of the court. If it was in the previous world, I think that there should be no connection or interaction between the people in Jianghu and the court. Otherwise, there would be no benefit to either party. The facts have proven this point. However, the situation now is different. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Moreover, this is a matter of life and death for the nation and the country. Regardless of whether it is the people in Jianghu or anyone else, they can forget about staying out of it! "
"Hmm … That's right. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. I agree with this." Number One nodded. "Then, let's talk about the Boundary of the Nine Provinces. I heard that this world is under your control."
"Yes, before the disaster of the world came, I was already preparing for it. Originally, I did not have any hope. Later, I accidentally found the existence of the Boundary of the Nine Provinces, which gave me a glimmer of hope. So, I tried my best to restore the Boundary of the Nine Provinces. The control of the Boundary of the Nine Provinces is in my hands. I do not intend to hand it over to anyone, and no one can take control of the Boundary of the Nine Provinces from me! "Qin Lang's tone finally fluctuated and became very firm.
"Don't get excited. I do not intend to ask you to hand over the control of the Boundary of the Nine Provinces. Moreover, according to what you said, who can control the Boundary of the Nine Provinces? If it was in the past, I would not even believe that such a thing existed. "Number One smiled faintly.
"No one wants the control of the Boundary of the Nine Provinces?" Qin Lang could not help but sneer. "Then, why did General Yan have this intention before?"
"Sigh, Old Yan is acting on his own again!" Number One sighed. "You don't have to blame him. From his point of view, he naturally hopes that all the weapons will be in the hands of Hua Xia's military. I can completely understand this idea, and I hope you can understand it too."
"I'm afraid I can't understand it. I'm just a person from Jianghu." Qin Lang said, "But as I said before, in the current situation, everyone is responsible! Perhaps some people think that with this Boundary of the Nine Provinces, the world will really be at peace. But what I want to say is that it is impossible! I remember that the purpose of building the Great Wall was to defend against the nomads of the grassland, so that they could not invade the Central Plains. In the end, the Great Wall's existence was only a symbol, and its actual use was not that great. Similarly, the famous Maginot Line during World War II was the same. Although the Boundary of the Nine Provinces is not made of paper, it is definitely not omnipotent. Its purpose is only to build a safe nest for the people of Hua Xia. But if we only stay in our own nest and do not step out, then hope will also become despair! "
"I understand what you mean. You think that the people of Hua Xia should start fighting now, and use war to nurture war, right?" Number One asked.
