"Why do we do this? Even if some people want to extend their claws into the Yulin Guard, they just want to expand the family's influence. It won't harm the national interests, right? "
Tanlang still didn't quite understand and asked doubtfully.
"The expansion of influence depends on the situation. The Yulin Guard will never allow anyone to extend their claws into it."
Xiang Tiange said seriously, "The soldiers are a new type of soldiers combining military and martial arts. They take the new route of combining martial arts cultivation and technology. The most excellent soldiers will have the opportunity to get in touch with the most confidential and core advanced technology of the country, such as the latest equipment, the latest weapons, the latest special agent products, the most advanced drugs …"
Tanlang understood. The Yulin Guard would become the users of the most advanced equipment in Shenzhou Country. It was also the most special type of soldiers and would perform the most difficult tasks.
It was related to the core secrets of the highest level of science and technology in Shenzhou Country. Therefore, the soldiers of the Yulin Guard must have absolute loyalty to the country instead of serving a certain family or force.
If some family forces were allowed to extend their claws into the Yulin Guard, once a soldier leaked the secret, the loss to the country would be immeasurable. No wonder the senior officials of the country and the National Warrior's Mansion joined hands to set such a big trap to ensure the absolute "cleanliness" of the Yulin Guard.
"Then why did you tell me? Now that I know, does it mean that I can't fight with the Yulin Guard? "
Tanlang wanted to get to the bottom of it.
"Because you are the general person in charge of the Seventeenth Department. With the gradual transfer of power of the National Warrior's Mansion, the Seventeenth Department will soon be handed over, so we have to give you a warning in advance, lest you go crazy at that time."
Xiang Tiange said indifferently, "After the Warriors' Assembly is over, the three of us will focus on martial arts and won't care about the affairs of the National Warrior's Mansion anymore. You're the Eldest Senior Brother, so these things will naturally be handed over to you to deal with. So, I might as well take this opportunity to make it clear to you."
Tanlang opened his mouth, and his mind was in a mess. He wanted to say something but stopped. Although he knew that it was his masters who took the initiative to hand it over, he still felt a burst of disappointment in his heart.
"Also, what are your plans for the future with Pojun and Qisha? Whether to focus on Martial Arts cultivation or to join the Yulin Guard and continue to serve the country, these are the things you need to consider now. "
Qu Wuyou sighed softly. How could he not know Tan Lang's feelings? But things had already been decided, and they did not intend to change anything. They could only let them make their own choice.
"I want to stay by Master's side and cultivate with him."
Greed's eyes reddened as he lowered his head and choked with sobs.
Xiang Tiange glared at him and scolded, "You're so useless. We've dedicated our whole lives to our country. When we're old, we can finally let go of everything to live the life we want. This is a good thing. What's there to be sad about?"
"Yes, Master, I know I was wrong!"
Tan Lang suppressed the sadness in his heart, wiped his tears, straightened his back and replied.
I know you are filial, but I hope you can remember that power is a double-edged sword. It can hurt others, but it can also hurt yourself. Don't place too much importance on power, and don't get lost in it. When it's time to let it go, let it go. Only then can you live a relaxed life, live by yourself, and make progress in cultivation. "
Xiang Tiange's voice softened a little, but he still taught Tan Lang with a sense of reprimand.
Tan Lang took a deep breath, his eyes gradually became firm, and he replied seriously, "Master, I'll remember it."
"Well, it's not like we won't see each other again in the future. The National Warrior's Mansion is our home. When we're tired, we'll go home. As long as we're alive, the National Warrior's Mansion will always be there."
Qu Wuyou stood up, patted Tan Lang on the shoulder, and comforted him softly.
"Really? You should have told me earlier. I've made a fool of myself. "
Tan Lang complained in surprise.
Xiang Tiange was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him. "You little bastard, do you think we'll never come back?"
"Hehe, no, no. It's you who made it sound like your last words, which scared me."
Tan Lang scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.
"F * ck off. I'm hungry. Go and get us some supper."
Xiang Tiange scolded him with a smile, kicked him, and drove him out.
When he was sure that Tan Lang had gone far, the smile on Xiang Tiange's face gradually disappeared, and he showed a touch of sadness. "This time, I don't know if we can come back alive."
"Don't think so much. We're so old. Even if we fail to break through and die, it's not a loss."
Qu Wuyou was open-minded and said lightly.
"That's true. I'm not afraid of death, but I'm a little reluctant to give up these little bastards."
Xiang Tiange sighed and stared blankly at the outside of the tent.
"Seventh Brother, why are you getting more and more sentimental as you get older? If it weren't for Third Brother, we would have gone to hell with those old brothers when the People's Republic was founded. Now we've lived for a few more decades, and it's already worth it. Besides, this time we're not doomed to die. Maybe we'll break through if we're lucky. There's nothing to worry about."
Qu Wuyou was much more free and easy, as if he had seen through life and death.
Xiang Tiange smiled and said, "Yes, Ninth Brother, you're right. I'm being sentimental. However, we must not tell Third Brother about this. Do you understand? Otherwise, with Third Brother's temper, he will definitely blame himself to death. "
"Alas, who could have thought that the Demonic Spirit didn't kill us and made us Spiritual Masters, but it also buried the hidden danger today. There's still a little demonic nature left in the Demonic Spirit, which will become the biggest threat when we break through."
Qu Wuyou smiled bitterly, but his eyes were filled with monstrous fighting intent. "The owner of the Demonic Spirit may have been very powerful when he was alive, but now he only has a little remnant consciousness. With our willpower, I don't believe that we can't defeat the demonic nature."
"Yes, we followed Tai Zu to conquer the world, and we've encountered all kinds of difficulties. It's just a little remnant consciousness of the Demonic Spirit that hasn't been completely obliterated. We will definitely break through smoothly and completely obliterate it."
Xiang Tiange's pride was also aroused, and he said heroically.
The two of them cheered and encouraged each other, but in fact, they were very clear that this time, they were afraid that they would really be in danger.
After all, the demonic nature that couldn't be completely obliterated after being sealed in the Heaven-accessing Place for five thousand years, even if it was just a strand of gossamer, was enough to make them suffer.
After they sensed the bottleneck of the Martial Sage Realm, they found that the deeply hidden demonic nature at that time was actually using the Willpower that they had cultivated over the years as nourishment and constantly recovering.
This made them very conflicted. If they forcibly suppressed their cultivation and didn't break through, the awakened demonic nature would continue to grow. Sooner or later, it would be so strong that it would be out of control and seize their bodies to be reborn.
But if they chose to break through, at the moment of the breakthrough, the demonic nature was very likely to take the opportunity to invade their spirit, gradually eating away at their consciousness and replacing it.
Of course, there was a certain chance that they could obliterate the demonic nature with their strong willpower during the breakthrough, but this chance was very small, so small that they had no confidence that they could survive.
Therefore, they were very conflicted and couldn't make up their minds. Under the stimulation of Zi Que 'er and the others breaking through to the Saint Martial Arts Realm at a young age, they finally made up their minds to fight for this slim chance of survival. Otherwise, when the demonic nature grew stronger, they would completely lose this last chance.
It was either succeed or die trying. The two of them had already made preparations. Once they discovered that the demonic nature had invaded their Divine Souls, they would immediately self-detonate and blow up the demonic nature completely. This was to prevent the demonic nature from being reborn and occupying their bodies to do evil things, ruining their lifelong reputation.
Dragon Xiaotian's eyes lit up. He was really itching to have a good fight with Gui Jianchou, the former number one genius. He didn't expect that before he had time to fight, Gui Jianchou was beaten into the air by Lang Dong as soon as he said a word.
This man was so strong.
Dragon Xiaotian stared at Lang Dong, eager to have a try, and his eyes were full of fighting desire.
Lang Dong was madly torturing Gui Jianchou, but he noticed that a very strong fighting desire was locked on him. Seeing that Gui Jianchou had almost been taught a lesson, he immediately stopped, letting Gui Jianchou fall freely, and turned to look at Dragon Xiaotian.
"Brother, can I have a battle with you?"
Dragon Xiaotian was so excited that his entire body was trembling, and he took the initiative to challenge Lang Dong.
"Come!"
Lang Dong had not had his fill. He licked his lips and crooked a finger at Dragon Xiaotian.
"Xiaotian, what are you doing? Don't be willful. "
The third forefather of the Long family raised his eyebrows and scolded angrily.
When one was old, they were not as spirited as young people, and there were more considerations in their minds.
Putting aside Lang Dong's individual fighting ability, just the fact that they had the power to defeat the Sacred Gate meant that they were not someone the Long family could provoke.
Even if he didn't think that Lang Dong and the others had the power to stand up to the profound Sacred Gate, before the Sacred Gate officially declared war, it was not appropriate for the Long family to be the first bird to stand out.
"Brother Xiaotian, don't be rash."
Ever since Feng Ni 'er had been viciously taught a lesson by Ding Ning, she had toned down her arrogant and despotic personality and learned to weigh the pros and cons. She felt that Dragon Xiaotian's actions were unwise and spoke with a face full of worry.
"Third Grandpa, I want to spar with him."
Dragon Xiaotian replied without turning his head. The fighting spirit in his eyes soared, and he charged quickly toward Lang Dong, dragging the large Guan Dao behind him.
"Nonsense! This is simply nonsense! Stop it right now!"
The third forefather of the Long family was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at Lang Dong.
Unfortunately, Dragon Xiaotian's fighting spirit was boiling and he could not stop Lang Dong. He exerted strength in his wrist and the large Guan Dao in his hand suddenly leaped up like lightning, chopping down toward Lang Dong's head.
"Good move!"
Lang Dong shouted and without dodging, he threw a punch toward the large Guan Dao.
"Brother, be careful. My Guan Dao is made from the cold iron of the North Sea."
Dragon Xiaotian kindly reminded him. After all, Lang Dong was bare-handed, but he was using a weapon. Even if the Guan Dao was not sharp, he would still have an unfair advantage.
"No matter!"
Lang Dong gave a long howl and had no intention of dodging. His fist landed squarely on the blade of the Guan Dao.
Clang!
The sound of metal clashing could be heard. Lang Dong's fist was stronger than steel and was not damaged at all. He forcefully used his fist to force the Guan Dao back.
"Be careful, Dragon King Third Scout!"
Dragon Xiaotian did not seem to be surprised. After reminding Lang Dong, his right wrist trembled slightly, and the Guan Dao's inertia quietly changed its trajectory. It drew a strange arc in the air and chopped at Lang Dong's waist.
"Strong enough!"
Lang Dong was not surprised. Instead, he was happy. With a loud shout, he sank his Qi into his dantian and squatted down. He suddenly lowered his body and threw three punches in succession.
Clang clang clang!
The sound of metal clashing could be heard, and the Guan Dao was sent flying backward.
Dragon Xiaotian was surprised but did not panic. He lightly shouted, "Sigh of the Dragon!"
With a slight twist of his waist, he dissolved the inertia of the Guan Dao being sent flying backward. As if his arm was pointing, he drew a circle in the air. In an instant, who knew how many times he had chopped. In the air, the shadow of a giant dragon appeared. The Guan Dao was like a dragon's breath, emitting waves of black light that enveloped Lang Dong.
