Liu Shuanghua, the intelligence giant of Zhongzhou State, personally drove the car . The car body was slightly shaking . The light illuminated the flower beds by the roadside .
Wang Yuetong looked back in front of the opened car door .
In her sight, Li Tianlan still stood there without showing his feelings .
Wang Yuetong bit her red lips to prevent herself from crying . She just earnestly watched the figure bathed in the moonlight in the door .
Behind her were light and night wind . The wind blew the autumn leaves to the sky . Meanwhile, her dress and hair fluttered in the light of the night . There was a kind of heartbroken sorrow .
The man was silent and quiet when they first met .
The man was ruthless and decisive during the entrance maneuver .
The man stood in front of her in a dangerous situation and burned the sky with one stroke .
The man saved her but insisted on getting even with her .
They did not spend a lot of time together, but their feelings needed not to be measured with time .
Meeting, acquaintance, intimacy, until parting .
It was not until this moment when Wang Yuetong clearly felt his importance in her heart .
He was so vital that she could not part with him .
She had long been obsessed with this kind of sense of comfort while staying with him, even if she knew from the beginning that they would have no future .
Never had she imagined that this affection would not end up with a satisfactory ending .
Wang Yuetong laughed with tearful eyes . She appeared to be delicate and touching .
She was fascinated with a man for the first time in her life . The so-called first love was sweet and bitter .
Wang Yuetong waved her hand .
The crystal tears finally fell on the ground .
Li Tianlan was resolved and did not move .
The black car kept moving away along the road and eventually disappeared into the distance .
He could not saw her, and he could not had a desire for her too .
Li Tianlan finally felt the loneliness, almost emptiness, even if he knew that Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng would return soon .
Qin Weibai had nothing to do with him .
Wang Yuetong returned to Beihai .

With his grandfather’s support, the Li family began to live for themselves . It also had nothing to do with him .
Even his few friends had their own forces behind them .
Li Tianlan’s foundation was utterly ruined .
As he lost his martial arts, he seemed to have no liability .
Until this time, Li Tianlan discovered that he had nothing at all except for the responsibility he bore .
Nothing!
Li Tianlan ghastly smiled . He looked lonely in the night . No words could describe this kind of mental state—loneliness, desolation, helplessness, and confusion .
He stood there as if he had lost his soul .
He seemed to disappear in the cold night . He became vague and lifeless .
At the entrance of East Emperor Palace, two security guards looked at each other with eyes full of doubt and solemness .
After all, they were not ordinary security guards so that they could feel Li Tianlan’s state of silence much more acutely than others .
They did not know this state was good or bad, so they felt a bit awkward .
“Go and see?”
The tall and thin security guard frowned and asked, but he subconsciously moved to Li Tianlan .
The short and fat security guard hesitated and followed silently .
Without any sound, Li Tianlan opened his eyes again .
His eyes became more peaceful than ever .
The two security guards came to him .
The three men stared blankly at the same time .
The tall and thin security guard smiled honestly and said soothingly, “Boss, do you want to drink? Homemade rice wine, and it won’t go to your head . ”
“I’m not your boss . ”
Li Tianlan shook his head and quietly looked at the security guard in front of him . “What’s your name?”
“Li Dazhuang . ”
The tall and thin security guard remained honest .
“Li Erwang . ”
The short and fat one acted naively .

Even though Li Tianlan was in a bad mood, he was almost amused by the two men . He shook his head, pointed to the duty room in front of the door, and went in first .
The simple duty room had 20-inch color television, two hard beds, a computer with power off, a new hanger with clothes and electric baton, a small table in the center of the room, as well as a bottle of wine without trademark and a dish of peanuts on the table .
Li Tianlan glanced at the room and shook his head, saying, “You’re wronged . ”
“No . We think it’s good for high wages, a good environment, and a cushy job . Boss, don’t be too polite . Please sit down . ”
‘Li Dazhuang’ greeted him warmly as if he felt extremely flattered .
“Stop pretending . ”
Li Tianlan said indifferently, “High wages? I can’t afford wages for two security guards of Thunder-shocking Realm, even if I sell my blood . I feel wronged for you since you’re here . ”
He got a camp chair and sat down . Noticing that the two men looked stiff, he calmly said, “Which force?”
The two security guards were looking at each other in dismay, with confusion and embarrassment in their eyes . However, they still tried to pretend to be dazed .
“Wang family of Beihai? Jiang family of South America? Kunlun City? Sigh City? or…”
Li Tianlan did not continue to speak .
When it came to this, it would not make any sense if you still want to keep in something . The two security guards smiled wryly and hesitated for a while . The tall and thin security guard bowed first and said gently, “Bamboo Grove here to greet Your Highness . ”
“Volcano here to greet Your Highness . ”
The fat man also bent down with respect .
Li Tianlan was not surprised . Although he mentioned several forces, he knew precisely about their stance . Now, his perception was amazing and beyond imagination . Despite he could not accurately judge their strength, he could be sure that they almost be at the peak of Thunder-shocking Realm . Such experts spent several months here and took no action . Moreover, they did not attack him after his return . Thus, they were not likely to be enemies .
He was the Young Governor of Sigh City now .
They called him Your Highness .
With a self-deprecating smile, Li Tianlan asked, “Are you from the Samsara Palace?”
“Your Highness, how did you find out that we are suspicious?”
The man, code-named Bamboo Grove, asked . Obviously, he was the leader of the two . He wore a security uniform and looked honest, without any style of an expert . However, Li Tianlan could see through them at a glance . They found it unbelievable .
“If Wang Tianzong can see it, so can I . Even if he can’t see it, I can . ”
Li Tianlan said quietly, “Are you really from Samsara Palace?”
“Samsara Palace has already withdrawn from Zhongzhou State . ”
Bamboo Grove said with a smile, “Everyone knows this matter . We…”
He was a little hesitant and finally said, “We belong to Saber . ”
“Saber?”

Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows and looked weird . “Is it an organization?”
“Yes . ”
Bamboo Grove said in a calm voice . He seemed to read his doubts and whispered, “It’s a secret organization . Military Counselor is our immediate superior . ”
Military Counselor .
It was still the Samsara Palace .
Li Tianlan paused for a moment and finally said, “I want to see Military Counselor . ”
“Beep…”
While he just finished speaking, the car horn sounded at the entrance .
In his sight, the car had not stopped yet . In a twinkling, Military Counselor in black cloak appeared in front of him .
Seeing that Bamboo Grove and Volcano were calm, Military Counselor suddenly breathed a sigh of relief . And then, he saw Li Tianlan .
His body stiffened slightly . He paused for a while and finally gave a wry smile . “I heard that Wang Tianzong came here . So, I come over to see if you are alright . ”
“Your message is timely . ”
Li Tianlan squinted at Military Counselor . He meant it . With his position, Wang Tianzong could do as he wished in Zhongzhou State . Even if everyone wanted to pay attention to him, only a few people could keep track of him . Wang Tianzong left for less than 10 minutes, and Military Counselor came over . It showed that he possessed a lot of important information .
“What is Saber?”
Li Tianlan asked directly without waiting for Military Counselor to speak .
He thought Samsara Palace had nothing to do with him, but now he found that it was always by his side . Whatever the message meant, it cheered him up when he was in such a bad mood .
Military Counselor looked at Bamboo Grove and Volcano .
They looked helpless and bowed down to him .
Military Counselor took a tumble and helplessly smiled .
He sat opposite to Li Tianlan and ate a peanut . He paused for a while and pointed to Bamboo Grove and Volcano . “They are Saber . ”
“Only two people?”
Li Tianlan stared at Military Counselor . Even if he were a fool, he could not believe it .
Military Counselor shook his head and waved his hand .
Bamboo Grove and Volcano walked out quietly and left the duty room to Military Counselor and Li Tianlan .
Seeing this, Li Tianlan frowned slightly . “Don’t you believe in your own subordinates?”
“This is the rule . ”
Military Counselor whispered, “They don’t know much . Strictly speaking, Bamboo Grove and Volcano only belong to the sheath . They only know what they need to know . ”
Where there was a sheath, there would be a blade .
Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes tightly . He suddenly discovered that the so-called Saber might be incredibly powerful .
“Saber is an organization?”
Li Tianlan asked .
“Yes, it is . I managed it on behalf of Palace Master over the years . ”
Military Counselor nodded .
“Is its headquarters in Huating?”
Li Tianlan continued to ask . At this moment, he was extremely eager to uncover the cloak to see the man behind it .
“Headquarters?”
Military Counselor repeated and immediately shook his head . “No headquarters . ”
Li Tianlan frowned .
“The Saber is not only integrated but also mutually independent . ”
Military Counselor whispered, “Thick sheath, sharp blade, ethereal intent, illusive hilt, and brilliant radiance . Such an organization does not need headquarters for the time being . ”
Bamboo Grove and Volcano belonged to the sheath .
Even if they were not at the peak of Thunder-shocking Realm, they were close to the realm .
What were the so-called blade, saber intent, hilt, and saber radiance?
Li Tianlan felt a little terrified .
“We don’t have a headquarters, but our foundation is indeed in Zhongzhou State . ”
Military Counselor said with a smile, “Your Highness, Samsara Palace becomes famous in overseas . They say that we rise so fast, but our foundation is not firm . Even so, we still have a foundation . Do you know where our real foundation is?”
Li Tianlan did not speak . The answer was as expected, although the answer itself was unexpected .
“Our real foundation is in Zhongzhou State . ”
Military Counselor whispered .
