YM778.TV Chapter 303 - Borrowing a Sword Strike from Mr. Lin
For a few people, they lived their lives on the road.
They wandered or drifted from place to place.
They had no purpose, so there would be no end.
...
When the Northern Hemisphere entered early summer in June, Australia in the Southern Hemisphere was already in early winter.
The cold night was brilliantly illuminated in Sydney. With brilliant lights blazing, the Sydney Harbour Bridge was like a rainbow across the sea. The lights fell on the water, illuminating large-scale water waves, radiating glazed splendor.
It was a prosperous but deserted and beautiful city.
The Sydney Opera House near the bridge was already ablaze with lights.
Wearing a black coat, Lin Fengting strolled into the entrance of the opera house and went straight to the hall.
Guests passed him by in twos and threes.
Lin Fengting looked gentle and calm.
He walked neither fast nor slow, but in actuality, he was leisurely and free. It was clear and less impressive, but it was his own mood.
The crowd passed by him at different speeds.
Lin Fengting was alone, and his figure looked a little lonely.
Tonight, the performance team in the opera hall was somewhat famous at most. The members were no longer young, but they stood out conspicuously with their excellent skills in the past two years.
Lin Fengting first saw them in Vienna half a year ago.
It was an ordinary but beautiful and sad opera.
Lin Fengting did not like the opera very much, but that performance touched his heart silently. It reminded him of his wife, who had died 10 years ago.
She also liked traveling.
Thus, Lin Fengting had followed the opera troupe for half a year.
They did not know each other.
Lin Fengting just loved watching their performances.
From Vienna to Germany, they passed by Star State and traveled to Sydney. The next stop was Melbourne.
Their schedule was busy, so they progressed rapidly.
Lin Fengting followed them at will.
Haste was also a kind of scenery.
Bells tolled in the opera house.
It was less than 20 minutes before the opera began.
At the bell, he entered the extremely complex and magnificent opera hall, which was built with boxwood and birch. Lin Fengting was calmly looking for his seat.
He had the most general ticket in his hand, so his seat was in the back, which should not be far from the door.
He passed rows of red seats.
Lin Fengting slowly moved forward.
He took off his coat.
A wisp of natural and rich fragrance wafted along with the breeze.
It was gentle and hazy.
The scent was different from any perfume. It was the most natural scent of a woman, which was unique.
Lin Fengting, who had found his seat, sniffed and raised his head subconsciously.
A young woman was sitting quietly next to him and was also observing him.
The woman wore a dark-blue cotton dress, with long hair disheveled on her shoulders. She sat gracefully and formally and straightened up her back as if she were not coming to the opera but negotiating.
It was indeed a negotiation.
The light in the opera hall was dim.
The light blocked her beautiful looks. Her eyes were radiant and enchanting as if she could see the starry sky. She was quietly watching Lin Fengting with a smile.
Lin Fengting was stunned.
He was stunned by her beauty.
He was astonished because he was unprepared.
He never thought that he would see her here.
However, Lin Fengting knew that it was a negotiation at the sight of her, even though he did not know what she wanted to say.
...
Lin Fengting stood aloof from worldly affairs, so he did not remember her name for a moment.
It was not due to having a bad memory. Strictly speaking, they had not met formally before.
He laughed and said vaguely, “Boss Qin, what are you doing here?”
Qin Weibai seemed to show up everywhere. She sat next to Lin Fengting.
She was always in the right place and did what she thought she should do.
Qin Weibai bowed to Lin Fengting with a gentle smile, but her eyes were full of respect.
“You’re here, so I’m here.” Qin Weibai started to talk with a smile.
She paused and introduced herself, “I’m Qin Weibai.”
Lin Fengting narrowed his eyes.
He took an in-depth look at Qin Weibai and sat down beside her. He calmly said, “The Samsara Palace is so powerful that you can track me down?”
“It’s just a coincidence,” Qin Weibai whispered.
As the lights rotated in the opera hall, her face could be seen indistinctly. She looked sincere as she said, “Sir, if you don’t mind, I’m willing to apologize.”
“Not necessary.”
Lin Fengting shook his head as if he did not mind this matter. He looked at the stage with a light laugh. “Boss Qin, did you come to Sydney for traveling or to visit friends?”
“Sir, I’ve come especially for you,” Qin Weibai said softly, being neither humble nor pushy.
...
Lin Fengting had a hidden frown.
Sitting next to Qin Weibai, he felt uncomfortable. Qin Weibai was beautiful. Lin Fengting had 50 years of experience, so he had seen countless beautiful women. In terms of appearance and manner, Qin Weibai was absolutely unique. It was undeniably true.
Beside her, Lin Fengting was more impressed by the cruelty and darkness in the Dark World than her outstanding beauty and heavenly fragrance.
He always had an aversion to this.
“What’s the matter?” Lin Fengting asked quietly.
...
Qin Weibai smiled and said in a softer voice, “Sir, I want to borrow a sword strike from you.”
To borrow a sword strike from Lin Fengting!
Lin Fengting was not well known in the Dark World, but it did not mean that his sword strike was valueless.
Only a few people knew the meaning of his sword strike.
He was silent.
Lin Fengting suddenly fell silent.
He felt a little strange.
It was strange that Qin Weibai appeared here. He felt even stranger about her request.
He could do a lot of things and kill many people with a sword strike.
However...
Lin Fengting smiled and said, “I don’t think I need to give you a sword strike.”
He looked at Qin Weibai without reserve nor ridicule. He just said, “Even if I was willing to give you a sword strike, could you afford it?”
Qin Weibai was calm and said in an elegant way, “We can talk about anything. I can give you whatever you want, as long as I have it.”
That was precisely the problem.
Qin Weibai did not know what Lin Fengting wanted.
However, Lin Fengting... really did not want anything.
He looked at Qin Weibai, and an idea suddenly struck her. He said with a strange smile, “I have a son. If I want you to be my daughter-in-law, would you agree?”
Qin Weibai remained calm. She was not angry but faintly smiled. “I’m not my own. I belong to my man.”
Lin Fengting’s eyes changed.
“Your man...”
He thought of Li Tianlan.
The young man was able to shock the world with one sword strike in the Heaven Capital.
He had heard about him.
He already knew that Li Tianlan had returned to Huating now.
“Sir, can you give me a sword strike for the sake of my man and the Li family?”
Qin Weibai looked at Lin Fengting with a smile, and her manners were perfect.
She said “to borrow”.
Lin Fengting understood her meaning.
He owed a sword strike to the Li family.
Qin Weibai also wanted to owe him a sword strike.
If so, they would be of mutual non-interference.
Lin Fengting stared blankly at the stage.
He intended to refuse her.
However, he had a lot of speculation and curiosity about the Samsara Palace. Therefore, he did not want to lose contact with the Samsara Palace before he figured out some things.
He could not lend her this sword strike.
...
If his sword entered the Dark World, the Lin Clan would enter the secular world.
Therefore, he shook his head without speaking.
In most cases, silence was a firm attitude.
Qin Weibai remained calm.
She was not surprised by Lin Fengting’s attitude. If it were easy to get this sword strike, she would not have gone all the way from the northern end of the Earth to the southern end.
“Sir, what do you think of the Samsara Palace?” Qin Weibai suddenly asked.
...
Lin Fengting thought of something. He paused for a while and said with a smile, “I don’t know much about the Dark World. As far as I know, the Samsara Palace is very strong.”
“It is very strong.”
Qin Weibai nodded. “It’s also very weak. We have experts of the Invincible Realm at the top of the Divine List, murderous weapons, experts, and resources, but we have no foundation. “In terms of real strength, it’s difficult for us to surpass any superpower, not to mention the Wang family of Beihai and the Lin Clan,” she said softly.
She began to slowly become cold and sharp. “Sir, I don’t want to be hostile against the Lin Clan. You’re so powerful that we neither dare nor want to provoke you, whether you enter the secular world or withdraw from worldly affairs. Thus, I want to borrow a sword strike from you.”
Lin Fengting did not understand Qin Weibai’s meaning for a while. He thought for a long time and then said indifferently, “You don’t want to be against us. How is it related to my sword strike?”
Qin Weibai looked deeply at Lin Fengting with bright eyes. Her voice was getting colder. “The Dark World fell into disorder, but it’s not out of control.”
Lin Fengting frowned.
“The Wang family of Beihai, the Jiang family of South America, the Knights Templar, the Dark Knights, Kunlun City, the Purgatory of Heaven Capital, the Fantasy World, and the Heroes’ Club...” Qin Weibai spoke out the names of the superpowers.
“Guardian Angel of the Star State, Shadow Throne of Europe, Aboriginals of Africa... All the forces are fighting every day. Even in the Polar Ground Alliance, there’s an internal conflict. Sir, do you know the cause?”
Lin Fengting frowned and continued to remain silent.
He really did not know those things, or he did not know too much.
The general trend seemed to be magnificent, but it was always out of his sight.
“Since the final battle of Heaven Capital, all the things are caused by the Wang family of Beihai uniting with Kunlun City to fight against the Samsara Palace,” Qin Weibai said indifferently.
She was telling the truth.
The two superpowers in Zhongzhou State took vengeance on the Samsara Palace.
The Jiang family of South America suffered great losses, so it wanted to make up for the loss and take revenge.
The Dark Knights had a good relationship with the Samsara Palace, so it took measures to intervene and provoked the Knights Templar.
As the battlefield continued to expand and wars were everywhere, the Guardian Angels of the Star State began to guard the land.
The Fantasy World of North America took responsibility.
The Jiang family of South America contacted the Aboriginals of Africa out of a sense of crisis.
Then, the Shadow Throne got involved in the war.
The Purgatory of Heaven Capital seemed to keep out of the affair, but Deity’s behavior in Annan State restrained most of the power in the Wang family of Beihai and Kunlun City.
It was a mess beyond expectation.
No one could think that it would come to this point.
Fighting and killing.
In a short period of two years, the flames of war swept across the entire world, without any sign of stopping.
The original reason was no longer important.
Most importantly, all the superpowers had no way back.
It was a game of the whole Dark World. Now, most of the experts of the Invincible Realm got involved.
No one knew the final result.
With huge investments, all the superpowers had gotten used to killing. Now, all the forces seemed to bite the bullet and keep on fighting. Even if they wanted to retreat, they dared not do so.
They were not doing it out of their own volition.
...
“What do you want to say?” Lin Fengting asked with a raised eyebrow.
“I want to say that any force involved is no longer qualified to pause the game. The contradiction has intensified to the extreme. The Wang family of Beihai does not dare to step back. Nor does the Samsara Palace.”
Qin Weibai said flatly, “But there’s a difference. Our Samsara Palace is well prepared for this. In the beginning, we already anticipated this situation.”
Lin Fengting’s eyes finally looked serious.
The Samsara Palace was already psychologically prepared for all the things happening today.
From another perspective, it meant that the present chaos in the Dark World was planned all alone by the Samsara Palace.
All the superpowers in the Dark World were giants. With the original reasons, it was not difficult to deliberately break the peace. From the moment that the Samsara Palace contacted the Dark Knights, the situation had begun to get somewhat out of control.
At that time, the Samsara Palace began to strike back. In the case that all the superpowers were most likely to cool down, its counterattack meant sounding the horn of war.
Thus, the situation was completely out of control.
Chaos!
More and more chaos.
It was one game in the Dark World.
However, the Samsara Palace really turned the whole Dark World into a game of chess and even regarded itself as a pawn.
It was not difficult to create such a situation.
Any superpower could do it as long as it planned carefully.
However, all the superpowers always avoided such a situation.
If the situation were too chaotic, it would be no good for anyone, as it currently was.
...
Even if it planned all the things, the Samsara Palace got no benefit. Instead, it suffered heavy losses.
Why did the Samsara Palace do all those things?
Lin Fengting looked thoughtfully.
Qin Weibai sat in a different position. She looked at Lin Fengting, who kept silent, and continued, “Sir, if I remember correctly... the Lin Clan also has branches in Europe and America, right? What’s more, they’re powerful enough...”
Lin Fengting suddenly changed color.
His eyes suddenly became cold, and imposing killing intent was surging in the opera hall.
The Lin Clan never entered the secular world.
That was a direct descendant of the Lin Clan in Switzerland.
The Lin Clan was always free, so their headquarters never cared how its direct descendants developed.
However, its branches were always a part of the Lin Clan. If they were at a critical juncture...
...
“What do you want to do?” Lin Fengting asked coldly.
“In such a mess, the strong and hidden Lin Clan will be involved in the Dark World if I have a clue. Moreover, it’s not difficult for me to get a clue.” Qin Weibai’s voice was frosty.
...
She wanted to owe Lin Fengting a sword strike.
It was a request, a negotiation, and a threat.
She had to get what she wanted!
Lin Fengting looked increasingly pale. He looked at Qin Weibai coldly. A moment later, he suddenly laughed.
...
“Boss Qin, are you not afraid that I’ll kill you?” Lin Fengting asked, and his voice suddenly became soft.
“If you kill me, you’ll lead the headquarters of the Lin Clan to enter the secular world and fight for numerous branches of the Lin Clan within a month. Sir, do you want this to happen?” Qin Weibai said calmly.
...
“You want to borrow a sword strike from me also to make the Lin Clan enter the secular world!” Lin Fengting’s tone was indifferent.
...
“It’s different.”
Qin Weibai shook her head. “If I wanted to make the Lin Clan enter the secular world, I’d call you Your Highness rather than Sir tonight.”
Lin Fengting was shocked inside and looked thoughtfully.
“Where are you going to use this sword strike?” he asked softly.
...
“Snow Country,” Qin Weibai said without hesitation.
...
The Polar Ground Alliance was in Snow Country.
Lin Fengting suddenly understood that the Samsara Palace wanted to mess up the Dark World thoroughly.
“What the hell do you want?”
At this moment, Lin Fengting was finally a little curious.
“Me?”
Qin Weibai gently smiled and said in a soft voice, “I only want to borrow a sword strike from you.”
Lin Fengting was helpless.
They were talking about different things.
“We are not enemies,” he said.
...
Qin Weibai said as she nodded, “Compared with the Li family, I’m more willing to believe the Lin Clan. Sir, I’m a madman. If I offended you, I’m willing to apologize. But this matter is very important to me.”
Lin Fengting looked better.
“Are you doing it for Li Tianlan?” he asked in a low voice.
...
Qin Weibai looked at him without speaking.
Lin Fengting gently sighed.
Except for the Palace Master, Qin Weibai was the first decision-maker in the Samsara Palace.
She forced all the forces, including the Samsara Palace, to participate in the game.
Beyond that, what else did she do?
For Li Tianlan...
Could a woman really do that for a man?
“I have three conditions.” Lin Fengting suddenly spoke.
...
“Go ahead.”
Qin Weibai’s eyes instantly focused.
“First, you don’t have to pay it back. I owed Li Tianlan a sword strike, so we are even-steven.
“Second, I want to see the Master of Samsara Palace.
“Third, I won’t launch attacks against the Wang family of Beihai,” Lin Fengting said.
...
Qin Weibai instinctively frowned. “But Tianlan’s sword strike...”
“You’ve done so much for him. You accept the sword strike for him, so what? You’re his woman. He isn’t your man?” Lin Fengting asked.
...
Qin Weibai suddenly looked pale and fell into meditation.
It lasted for a long time.
She slowly nodded and faintly said, “Yes.”
She looked quiet and dignified.
Lin Fengting looked at her quietly. He wanted to ask Qin Weibai if it was worth all the effort. As the words rushed to his lips, he quietly sighed and whispered, “Boss Qin, have you ever been happy in your life?”
Qin Weibai was stunned, with a faraway look in her eyes.
“I have been happy.” She thought for a long time before she whispered.
...
She enjoyed every moment she spent with Li Tianlan in Huating.
She remembered every word he said and every expression on his face.
The happy day was short, but it was enough.
...
Really.
It was enough.
Lin Fengting shook his head in silence.
He did not know if Qin Weibai was happy.
He only thought that Qin Weibai was very tired now.
“When do you need this sword strike?” Lin Fengting asked.
...
...
Qin Weibai regained her composure and said, “In about a month.”
“So fast?”
Lin Fengting was a little surprised. He looked at the stage and chuckled. “It seems that I have to go back and prepare, adjust the state.”
It was hard for him to imagine that the chaos in the Dark World that lasted for two years would end in one month.
It was also hard for him to imagine what would happen in the end.
He looked at Qin Weibai with complicated eyes.
The Number Two in the Samsara Palace seemed to have made all the necessary preparations.
“I’ll go to Snow Country in one month,” Lin Fengting said.
...
The opera was about to begin.
Qin Weibai stood up and bowed to Lin Fengting deeply. She respectfully said, “Thank you, Sir.”
She stood up straight and walked straight to the door without looking at the stage.
In the other direction, Flaming Fire followed in her footsteps.
Qin Weibai walked in front.
Behind her was Flaming Fire.
However, she still looked lonely.
Watching her go, Lin Fengting subconsciously held the coat in his hand tightly.
It was early winter in June in Australia.
The air was as cold as the glaciers in polar regions or the snow in Snow Country.
