Chapter 560 Li Shun's Pawns
Chapter 560 Li Shun's Pawns
The atmosphere in the restaurant was somewhat oppressive.
As the owner here, he couldn't afford to offend the notorious local Kifu union, whose exorbitant monthly dues were essentially protection money.
"That bastard dared to provoke the State of Fu. Perhaps I can use him..." Kursotai glanced at his daughter hiding in the kitchen and made a decision in his heart.
He had had enough of this kind of life. As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there will be resistance.
“Kiravolt, I’m warning you, don’t mess with my customers, or else…”
Kursotai had only spoken halfway when he realized that the smiling man with black-rimmed glasses was none other than Kiravot.
The other person's forehead veins bulged, and his face was frighteningly dark.
"I'm talking to you, kid..." Seeing Han Yu leisurely drinking his red tea, the guild leader, who usually admonished his underlings to be kind, seemed to be about to erupt.
"Damn, the boss is about to lose his temper." The younger brother, Zhu Ke, was a little scared.
"Is the boss about to lose his temper? What's going on, Mr. Zhu Ke?" Several newcomers who had just joined the organization were still confused.
My eldest son is the most approachable, and I rarely see him showing any violent tendencies.
Upon seeing this, Zhu immediately pulled out several small pills from his inner pocket. Kiravolt swallowed the pills, and the fierce look in his eyes vanished.
"That was really rude of me."
Kiravolt recalled the days when he was a child and didn't have enough to eat or wear, which is why he allowed Hanyu to finish his food before leaving. But he didn't expect that the other party would completely ignore him.
"I understand, boss. Calm down first. Miss Nova is still in the kitchen watching over things," Zhu Ke quickly reminded him.
Kiravolt suppressed the urge to kill Han Yu.
"The boss hates those arrogant people the most. If he hadn't intervened just now, the fact that the Kifu union killed someone in public would probably have alarmed the government."
Zhu Ke breathed a sigh of relief.
Kiravolt grew up in the impoverished East of Winter and was used to seeing those loyal dogs who claimed to be Winter nobles coming here to collect dues.
Until two years ago, he met a benefactor who not only helped him seize the territory of the local gang in Zhidong, but also supported him to become the new chairman.
...
Dark Abyss, the New Great Sugar Dynasty.
Ever since Han Yu discovered him, Li Shun had been preparing to run away. Now, the abyss's restrictions were fully in place, preventing anything from entering, not even a fly.
“Han Yu has been staying in Zhidong for several days, and my carefully cultivated informant has already encountered him.” A black mist appeared in front of Li Shun.
An image appeared within the black mist: Han Yu was sitting opposite Morax in the restaurant.
This is a first-person perspective; as for the person viewing the perspective...
"Kiravolt, that kid, really didn't disappoint me."
Beside Li Shun stood the Moon Hunter, Rayleigh, whose expressionless face and blood-red pupils sent chills down one's spine.
How much time can you buy me?
Rael stood up with his arms crossed; he desperately wanted to find the moon.
"Only by finding the moon... ...find the moon, find the moon!" His eyes turned even more bloodshot.
As for the "she" he was referring to, she was naturally Solindis, Raelil's fiancée.
“Rayl, you are getting further and further away from your dream.”
"But the root of all this is not you. Ever since that stranger came to Kanria, Black King Ilmin has become increasingly insane."
Black King Ilmin was the last monarch of the Black Sun Dynasty, and the Stranger was Yingmei's brother, who later became the Abyss Prince Kong.
Prince Kong was teleported directly from the crashed spaceship by Kanria using wish technology, leaving his sister behind in a complete bewilderment.
"This guy's going crazy again." Li Shun didn't interrupt him, but listened to him talking to himself.
"I'm not wrong, the fault lies with this turbulent world. I only wanted to propose to you, Solindis, and live a simple, happy life together... But no!!!"
Suddenly, Rael knelt on the ground, clutching his head with both hands, seemingly engulfed in endless pain.
Li Shun stayed in Kanria for who knows how many years, during which time he read a book called The History of the Black King.
Calling it a book isn't quite accurate; it's more like a notebook.
"I remember it was written by a court physician, who recorded a lot about the Black King's illness and past."
The physician vividly described how the Black King invited the stranger into the palace, continuously draining the abyssal power stored within him, and how the king's sanity became increasingly deranged and terrifying.
"That's enough, Raelil. Aren't you on your way to Nordkale to continue your search for the moon? Are you just going to dwell on painful memories?"
Li Shun craned his neck to look at the latter.
"Yes... Nordkalle, you hold off that troublesome woman for me. I have to find her this time, time is running out!"
Rael stood up, and before him appeared a blood-red abyss gate shrouded in black mist.
"Hmph, go, Raelil, you will become the sharpest sword in my hand." Li Shun continued to examine his chess pieces.
...
Han Yu's perception was incredibly sharp. Otherwise, he would have dealt with this troublemaker long ago.
"Vladimir, don't make any rash moves, play with him slowly." A voice suddenly appeared in the black-rimmed glasses man's ears.
It's that sir!
"Zhu Ke, let's go." To avoid any further complications, and with Li Shun's guidance, Vladimir decided to retreat first.
"The security situation right now, as winter approaches, is truly worrying." Han Yu stood up.
"Brother, I have some things to take care of. Let's talk inside my manor later."
The two secretaries understood and blocked Kiravolt's path. Just as the henchmen were about to make a move, they found themselves suddenly light and then fell heavily to the ground!
"Huh?!" Kiravolt looked displeased, as if he was about to explode again.
Zhu Kegang wanted to dissuade him, but the boss's strength was many times greater than his own, a strength that no ordinary, normal man should possess.
He came from the slums, and Juco had considered Kiravolt his older brother since childhood, so he knew many things best.
With veins bulging, Kiravolt completely lost his mind, only wanting to kill the other person, even though Li Shun called him an idiot and told him to stop.
"I'm sorry, sir, but I cannot forgive this despicable fellow for being so arrogant in front of me."
But as soon as Kiravolt turned around, he saw a familiar face, or rather, a face from the newspaper.
"You... you are."
There was no anger left; it was as if an insurmountable mountain stood before him.
"Tell the rooster that I am not satisfied with the winter environment and will summon officials from all regions to the Winter Palace for a meeting tomorrow." As soon as Han Yu opened the door, a luxurious carriage was already parked there.
"Big...Big...Brother, it seems we've offended someone we shouldn't have." Zhu Ke's face turned deathly pale. That was none other than the Iron-Blooded Minister of State, Han Yu!
Given his position, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could control everything during the winter. How many lives do they have to play with him?
"Don't panic, Zhu Ke, the adults will save us. In a moment, you lead a group and rush out. Escaping as many as you can, and spread this message to the other guilds..."
