Yan Sanniang seemed to understand Yang Cheng's shock. She smiled. "Young Master Chen, listen to this old woman's advice. I believe you've met the Hongmeng envoy. If you insist on making a move against Lu Min, you'll only be inviting trouble upon yourself. "
Yang Chen knew that the old woman in front of him wasn't just some random persuader. Solemnly, he said, "I know that Lu has a powerful grandfather as his backing, but does the Li clan have the authority to order people from Hongmeng around?"
Sanniang shook her head and sighed. "No one can order around Hongmeng, not even the Li Family. But Young Master Chen, please think about it. The four Great Clans each have their own roles to ensure the stability of Hua Xia's politics and military. Under such a balance, no one would accept that a direct descendant of the Li Family would be mercilessly killed just because he touched an ordinary businesswoman's daughter.
Even if the Lu Family was in the wrong, they wouldn't go so far as to sentence him to death. If the Li Clan could accept the fact that the Li Clan didn't even give them face and killed them just like that, then the Li Clan would lose all their prestige.
If Lord Li Moshen couldn't even protect his own grandson, then how could the Li Family be one of the Four Great Clans? In the eyes of many in Yan Jing, it's no secret that Young Master Chen is the eldest grandson of the Yang Family. So even if you don't think so, in their eyes, the Yang Family is the one who started the war against the Li Family. "
Yang Cheng was silent. He knew that Yan Sanniang was right. Yang Gongming had met him twice in private, and Yang Pojun had met him many times. Yang Jieyu and Yuan Hewei were already friends, and Guo Xuehua was already living with him.
Although he had no other relatives other than Guo Xuehua, the outside world had long regarded him as a member of the Yang Family. He had no choice but to admit it.
Sanniang continued. "The Li Family has always kept a low profile. First, they are small in number, only slightly better than the Yang Family. Second, the Li Family is in charge of intelligence and special forces, so they have to keep a low profile. But that didn't mean that the Li family was a pushover.
If the patriarch of the Li family, Vice Premier Li Moshen, were to spread a large amount of negative information, it would only take a blink of an eye to cause a huge political upheaval.
At that time, even if the Yang Family is not afraid of the Li Family, the Hongmeng envoy on duty will not sit idly by. Young Master Chen, perhaps you don't know this yourself, but you hold the Deity Position of that group of people, and have comprehended the power to use the Law of Space. This is already something that Hua Xia Hongmeng dislikes. If Young Master Chen hadn't cultivated the Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture at the same time, he would've been in big trouble based on his previous actions. "
Yang Cheng felt a chill in his heart. He frowned and said, "How do you know what cultivation technique I cultivate? Also, why would Hongmeng feel repulsed by a Sovereign's divine throne? "
Yan Sanniang was a little surprised, but she soon felt relieved. She said, "This Endless Resolve Restoration Scripture is the supreme art of Shu Mountain. It's not difficult to recognize. As for why you feel repulsed by it, it must be because the previous Hades and the other Sovereigns didn't tell you about it. "
"I took over the divine throne in a hurry. Other than some simple explanations and rules, I don't know much about the past of the gods. Could it be that there's a conflict between Hua Xia's Hongmeng and the gods of the West?" Yang Cheng guessed.
Yan Sanniang's squinted eyes suddenly revealed a hint of arrogance. She shook her head and smiled. "Conflict? That's impossible … Young Master Chen, it's not that I'm talking nonsense. In the eyes of the people of Hongmeng, the so-called gods are just a group of mutants. They can't even be considered as humans. They aren't even on the same level. How could there be a conflict? "
"What?" Yang Cheng's eyes widened. This was the first time he heard someone say that the high and mighty gods were not even considered as humans!?
Yan Sanniang hurriedly waved her hand. "This is related to some ancient history that few people know about. I only found out about it from my master. Of course, even though Young Master Chen is one of the so-called Sovereigns, he's still a real human. He's not a mutant. What I'm talking about are the remaining eleven Sovereigns who have lived since ancient times. The people of the world are foolish enough to call them gods. It's a joke. "
Looking at Sanniang's expression that didn't look like she was joking, Yang Chen suddenly realized that there seemed to be a shocking secret that he had been keeping hidden!
At that moment, Yang Cheng's phone vibrated. Yang Cheng's thoughts were interrupted. He picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from Molin.
He glanced at Sanniang and saw that the old woman had no objections. Only then did Yang Cheng pick up the phone.
Subconsciously, Yang Cheng had already determined that he no longer had the chance to kill Lu Min. Even if he unsealed himself, he might not be a match for Yan Sanniang.
Just like Ling Xuzi, when his cultivation reached a certain level, he could sense that he was no match for them.
"Molin, what's the matter?" Yang Cheng asked calmly.
Molin's tone was complicated. "Your Majesty Pluto, it's very strange. That Lu Min … is dead."
Yang Cheng was shocked. Dead? Wasn't he chatting with Yan Sanniang? How did he die while he wasn't paying attention?!
Yan Sanniang, who was standing not far away, could clearly hear it as well. Her aged eyes flashed with a rare hint of fierceness.
"We don't know what exactly happened. After all, it wasn't a close-up surveillance. We only know that Lu Min was injected with an acute toxin not long after he entered the airport. He spat out black blood and lost his chance to be resuscitated. If I'm not wrong, that toxin reaction should be from the Lebanese Spider used by Israel's Mossad. The culprit is obviously trying to frame you, Your Majesty. "Molin said angrily.
Almost all the secret service organizations in the world knew that there were only two forces in the world that could mobilize Israel's Mossad. One was Israel itself. The other was Yang Cheng. Yang Cheng's right-hand man, Makedon, was also a high-ranking leader of Mossad.
Yang Cheng hung up the phone with a gloomy expression. He couldn't guess who was the culprit, but there was no doubt that the culprit's intention was not simple.
Yan Sanniang pondered for a moment before saying, "This is fate. We thought we could stop this disaster, but we miscalculated and gave the culprit an opportunity. Young Master Chen, now you should believe that there are turbulent undercurrents under the surface of this seemingly calm sea. "
Yang Cheng clenched his fists tightly. He had foolishly become the scapegoat for someone else's murder. How could he not be angry? Even if someone with a discerning eye could tell that someone was deliberately stirring up trouble to incite a conflict between the Yang Family and the Li Family, his murderous intent to kill Lu Min had already happened. Furthermore, he had the ability to assassinate Lu Min, so there was no way he could explain himself.
However, Yang Chen wasn't a brat who hadn't seen the world before. Very quickly, his strong mental fortitude allowed him to calm down. He knew that since this had happened, the enemy was in the dark while he was out in the open.
Thus, putting Lu Min's matter aside, Yang Chen raised his head and asked humbly, "Granny Yan, I wonder if you could tell me about the ancient history you mentioned, if I'm lucky enough to understand it."
Yan Sanniang's eyes brightened. She secretly praised Yang Cheng's temperament. When she heard Yang Cheng calling her "Granny Yan", she was even happier. She smiled kindly and said, "If Young Master Chen wants to hear about it, I'm willing to tell you. This is something that you should know. It's just that those mutants didn't tell you about it because of their inferiority complex …"
Yang Cheng thought to himself, 'Look at how happy you are. Isn't it just calling you granny? You deserve such a title at your age. Moreover, you're still serving Yang Gongming at such an old age. You might have some kind of relationship with him. '
If it wasn't for the fact that I wanted to squeeze all the bullsh * t history out of you, I wouldn't even bother talking to you. Lu Min was already dead. What's the point of me staying in this godforsaken place?
I'm so unlucky this morning. I don't know how high this old woman's cultivation base is. She scared me so much. But no matter what, she should have broken through the Xiantian Full Cycle like Ling Xuzi. I don't know when I can reach that level …
I can travel through space without using my divine power! What a mysterious realm this was!
If Yan Sanniang knew that Yang Cheng's mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts, she would have been petrified. However, she was still very satisfied with this young man. You see, as long as you talk nicely, even the most stubborn child will listen to you.
After a moment of silence, Yan Sanniang began to narrate, "Young Master Chen, you should know where the gods of the West originated from, right?"
Yang Cheng thought for a moment and said, "If I'm talking about the origin, it should be Mount Olympus in Greece. Although most of the myths and legends that people know of have been tampered with, at least the names of places and people's lives are not wrong."
Yan Sanniang nodded and said, "Young Master Chen, do you know where the real Mount Olympus is?"
