Chapter 1403

Of course, if he could cross that hurdle, Ximen Wudi would inevitably be able to soar into the sky and achieve even more astonishing brilliance.

"Great Dragon Head, is it really okay for us to do this?" Li Yang asked.

"No problem, you don't need to worry about this matter; you just need to go on a trip with me." Ximen Wudi said lightly.

"But..." Li Yang stopped talking.

"Don't worry about anything; my safety is guaranteed, and my brothers won't let others succeed easily." Ximen Wudi smiled: "In my life, I don't know how many conspiracies and tricks I have seen. If I can't even see through these little tricks, then the position of the Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Gang is probably done."

"Okay." Li Yang sighed gently, then added: "However, as far as I know, Yamamoto Kyoko still holds another card. If she wants to show it, the Green Dragon Gang will also suffer serious losses."

"Oh? Where did you get this news?" Ximen Wudi said.

He didn't doubt the truth of the news revealed by Li Yang.

Because this was his right-hand man.

"It's our people in Jiangnan, Huaxia." Li Yang lowered his voice and said: "Lord, you should be clear that the identities of these people are extraordinary. If a battle really happens, these people might become the key factors in turning the situation around."

"That's good, you let them come over as soon as possible, I will meet them personally." Ximen Wudi said.

…………

The International Chamber of Commerce of Dongyang had already been held in Jiangjing.

The Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi, sat in the passenger seat of the car, while the Strategist sat in the back row, the two holding hands, looking very warm.

Only, under the Strategist's seemingly gentle and quiet eyes, what was hidden was a cold light like a knife edge.

Such cold eyes were extremely rare in daily life.

In this state, the Strategist was more like that Dawn of Darkness who dominated the European Dark World.

"I sometimes even feel that you have changed." The Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi, said.

"My nature is like this." The Strategist's tone was light, without any emotional color.

"I know, this is not your fault." The Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi, said: "Only, you have become more ruthless than before; this is not a good thing."

"Your evaluation may not be very fair." The Strategist said: "Yamamoto Kyoko and I are two completely different types."

"Heh, indeed." The Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi, sneered mockingly.

Actually, based on the Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi's understanding of the Strategist, although the latter seemed very tough, her inner heart was extremely kind.

If it were Yamamoto Kyoko, she might rather die herself than hurt anyone.

"This annual meeting, how many people are coming?" The Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi, asked: "Are they in the list you provided?"

"Three or four thousand people." The Strategist answered.

"This scale is really not small." The Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi, smiled and said: "It seems these people are all coming for Yamamoto Kyoko."

The Strategist nodded: "Yes, I have carefully screened these people. Basically, there won't be any big mistakes. Everyone is buying tickets with real money. I think they won't have crooked ideas. After all, everyone knows that Yamamoto Kyoko is covered by you, and no one is willing to risk offending you."

"Yes, these people all know the tense relationship between the Yamamoto Group and the Temple of the Sun God." The Great Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society, Ximen Wudi, said: "Unfortunately, Yamamoto Kyoko's parents are still alive. If the old man and

"I think they won't mind this," the Strategist said with a smile.

"Yes, the old master and the lady are both open-minded people; otherwise, Yamamoto Nian wouldn't have been born." The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, thought of Yamamoto Nian, and a gentle, loving smile appeared on his face.

"Do you want to rest for a period of time and wait until this annual meeting is over before coming to Jiangzhe?" The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, suddenly realized that in these past few years, the time he had spent accompanying the Strategist was far less than the time he had spent with his son.

"I can't refuse," the Strategist said.

Upon hearing this, the Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, immediately frowned and said: "Then I am even less in favor of you attending this annual meeting; it will put you in danger!"

His tone was insistent, and he did not shy away from it at all.

"But we have already collected a lot of intelligence," the Strategist said, gently patting the arm of the Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi.

The subtext of this sentence was very clear—if you don't try, you will never find a breakthrough.

After hearing this, the Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Alright then."

The Strategist smiled slightly, her eyes flashing with the light of wisdom: "I will take good care of myself, don't you worry."

Having said this, she paused, then looked out the window: "I have already figured out some ways to navigate this city. I think I can make myself stronger; that way, I can save you a lot of trouble, and you will have more energy to spend on more important matters."

"Alright, since you have already decided, then I will support you." The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, paused and added: "Remember, this is not a joke, and it is certainly not child's play."

"Don't worry." The Strategist kissed the Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, lightly, then closed her eyes.

…………

In a coffee shop in this city, a man with a thick beard was holding a coffee cup, looking at the information on his phone screen, shook his head and smiled, then deleted the page directly.

This man looked to be around fifty years old, wearing a crisp suit and gold-rimmed glasses perched on the bridge of his nose. He looked refined and scholarly, with quite the air of an intellectual.

However, beneath this refined exterior lay an unfathomable depth, as if a fierce fire of wisdom were burning slowly; the heat released from this flame was enough to roast anyone who got close.

This man was none other than the older brother of Juyang Junzi, the father of Juyang Junzi, Juyang Tianjun.

Before leaving, Juyang Junzi had urged her father—never expose yourself, leave everything to her to handle.

"Are you in Jiangzhou right now?" Juyang Tianjun's voice carried a melodic quality, like spring water.

"Dad, I am in Jiangzhou. How did you guess that I would arrive in Jiangzhou tonight?" Juyang Junzi said.

At this moment, she had just finished washing up in the bathroom, wearing a white dress, looking like a classical lady from a Jiangnan misty rain painting.

"Junzi, your thoughts are all written on your face. I don't need to try very hard to understand your heart, Dad." Juyang Tianjun shook his head and chuckled.

"Dad, did you come to Jiangzhou this time to attend the cocktail party hosted by the Yamamoto Group?" Junzi said. She walked to the table and poured two cups of tea: "Dad, please have some tea."

"No, Junzi, I didn't come just to attend the cocktail party this time. Of course, my ultimate goal is still your sister." Juyang Tianjun sipped his tea and said: "I have never married in my life and have no children of my own. I hope to see you happy."

This sounded a bit insincere.

Actually, if one observed carefully, one would find that Juyang Junzi habitually clenched her fists when she spoke.

She was a girl who did not show her emotions on her face, but that did not mean she wouldn't feel bitter inside.

"Mm, I also wish for you and Mom to have a child soon." Junzi smiled forcedly, though a glimmer of crystalline tears remained in the corners of her eyes: "I hope you two can grow old together."

"You must also protect yourself well." Juyang Tianjun's fingers tapped on the glass: "If you encounter anything you can't solve, tell Dad."

"Okay." Junzi nodded.

This was a facade of strength; in reality, she couldn't control herself at this moment, and tears slid down her cheeks.

This was her only weakness, but now, she could not reveal it.

"I'm going to sleep now. You should rest early too, and stay safe." Juyang Tianjun patted Juyang Junzi's shoulder and stood up.

Junzi hurriedly stood up to follow, supporting Juyang Tianjun, her eyes red: "Dad, be careful on the road."

"I know." Juyang Tianjun smiled: "Don't worry, Dad will live longer than anyone else. I will protect the things you and Apollo want to protect for you."

This sentence was filled with deep warmth and expectation.

It was just unclear whether it was a heartfelt hope or a false comfort.

"Thank you, Dad." Juyang Junzi choked up, then turned and ran into the room.

…………

The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, sat in the passenger seat without turning his head. He reached out, rubbed his temples, and sighed: "Sigh, it seems this matter is truly becoming increasingly tricky."

The Strategist shook her head gently: "Actually, I think you should go see your sister."

"My sister?" Upon hearing this, the Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, frowned deeply, his voice low: "What happened to her?"

"This is not yet clear," the Strategist said: "But according to the information I have, she has encountered some threats in Dongyang."

"Encountered threats?" The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, raised an eyebrow: "Tell me the specifics."

The Strategist said: "She is currently staying on Dongyang's Prime Minister Island, but her identity has been leaked."

"I know about the secret prison of the Dongyang Prime Minister's Office, but based on my understanding of Juyang Junzi, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to break in at all, and the defense systems in those prisons are like nothing to her. She could even disguise herself as a prisoner and mix into the prison." The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, said.

The Strategist nodded gently: "That is indeed the case."

"But why would she get hurt?" The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, narrowed his eyes: "Could it be that these people took action against her?"

"I can't figure it out. Junzi's combat power is extremely high, and she has many trump cards. Even if she encountered a Divine Ninja, she would have a chance to escape. She shouldn't have been captured." The Strategist pondered for a moment and said: "Unless..."

"Unless what?" The Green Dragon Society's First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, pressed.

"Unless one side of the forces possesses immense strategic depth or extremely strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities." The Strategist said: "However, in this situation, whether Juyang Junzi can safely withdraw is also a question worth debating."
