In the past, Mo Wenyang always came to Chaoyang in secret. Now that the Southwest Base had been stabilized, there was no need for him to hide, and even if he came at a time when the two brothers from the Wang Family came for Xing Feng and Yun Che, he did not avoid them, but blatantly went with them to the living room of Xing Feng's house next door, sitting aside with his legs crossed like he was the boss.
"General Wang and General Wang, what brings you two here today?"
After Xing Feng made the tea, Yun Che poured a cup for both of them. They used to be enemies, so he was always hostile when meeting with them. However, for reasons unknown, they had decided to assist Mo Wenyang in making the southwest prosperous, so Yun Che was glad to treat them as friends. Not to mention Wang Wei, he had huge respect reserved for Wang Guoan.
"Captain Xing, Captain Yun, you're probably busy, so I'll cut to the chase. I heard that you guys are going to the capital in the near future. Is it true?"
Wang Wei glanced at Mo Wenyang before asking in a deep voice. Xing Feng and Yun Che exchanged a look, and then both raised their eyebrows, "Yes, but General Wang, you cannot report it to the capital. As you know, our reputation proceeds us in southwest, and if you report it, someone will make a scene to welcome us before we arrive at the capital. You know, we want to keep it low-key! "
How could you be low-key? You would love to have the whole world know that you were low-key, right?
It must be said that Yun Che was too good at mocking. After what he said, not only Wang Wei and his brother but also Mo Wenyang couldn't help but roll his eyes. If he was really low-key like he said he was, how would the whole base know about the name of Peak? No, not just the base. It was estimated that the name Peak had long been made to the watching list of every major base around the country.
"Captain Yun, don't worry. We know what to do."
During their interaction with Yun Che, one must learn to ignore his taunts. Wang Guoan calmly continued, "Captain Xing, Captain Yun. So here's the thing. Last time, Liu Xizhao placed a spy in our army, which made us immensely disappointed in him and we can't go on trusting the capital. So we've been thinking of bringing our families in the capital here in the southwest. Therefore, when we heard that you guys are going to the capital, we thought that maybe we could join your company and go to the capital together.
The Wang Family was also quite a large family in the capital, but their father passed away early, so without his support, they were not as strong as the Xing Family or Mo Family in all aspects. Before the doomsday, Wang Wei's elder brother served in the military commission, so he had quite some power. However, he had no real military power in the hands, so after the doomsday, when the power of all central institutions was revoked, the military commission couldn't escape the fate as well. The other members of the Wang Family were the same, and Wang Wei was the only one who still had military power, so they wouldn't be hugely impacted if the family was moved to the southwest. It had been more than a year since the fall of the doomsday so no one would be naive enough to think that perhaps the doomsday would end in near future. Rather than let the family stay in the capital and be controlled by the Capital Base in the future, it was better to relocate them all to the southwest, so that the family could officially settle here.
They had anticipated that Xing Feng and Yun Che would go to the capital long time ago and they had expected them to set off when Yun Che finished recuperation so they came here together. The southwest was thousands of miles away from the capital. They were surely able to travel there on their own but there was doomed to be huge casualties. However, it was different to go there with Xing Feng and Yun Che, who had already proved countless times that a thousand miles was only a short distance for them They would be the only ones powerful enough to do that. Most importantly, they had seen Yun Cheng's superfunction with their bare eyes and personally, they believed that Yun Cheng was even more powerful than his brother Yun Che. So with these two brothers, they could basically arrive at the capital without anyone injured.
"Think it over. Leaving the capital would mean giving up everything you have in the capital."
Though Xing Feng and Mo Wenyang were surprised, when they thought about it, their choice seemed quite reasonable. After all, they were all acquainted with each other, but Yun Che, who was not familiar about the Wang Family, couldn't help but admire their courage. The most difficult thing for a person to do was to let go and give up, especially for people in high and powerful positions, those who had a lot, but always wanted to have more. When they were asked to give up even a tiny fraction of what they had, it was undoubtedly equivalent to cut off their flesh.
"Hehe…"
Wang Wei laughed bitterly, and Wang Guoan was also full of self-mockery, "No matter how powerful you were before the doomsday, you're like someone's dog after the doomsday if you have no military power, the only difference is that whether you are a precious breed or a cheap one. Our Wang Family has been serving the military for four generations and we have made huge contribution in the warfare. Before the doomsday, our eldest cousin served as the vice chairman of the military commission, but after the doomsday, just because he had no military power, he lives like an expensive dog who relies on the mercy of others. In the past, we thought the president was a righteous man and several army groups were guarding the capital to make sure it was a safe place, so we thought our family would definitely be safe there. Now that we are clear of what a man the president is, how can we keep trusting him with the safety of our family?"
This was a heartfelt statement, and if Wang Guoan didn't trust them, he would not tell them this.
"Then how many people are you planning to take with you there, and who will lead the team?"
After what he had said, Yun Che would be an idiot if he still didn't understand.
"Is this a yes from you, Captain Yun?"
Not expecting him to agree so quickly, Wang Wei was surprised, but Wang Guoan remained calm. He had always felt that Yun Che was actually a very nice person to talk to. As long as you didn't provoke him, he wouldn't refuse to help if there was anything he could do. On the contrary, if you played any trick on him, he would show you no mercy and would be willing to use every ruthless means on you.
"Well, but I have my conditions. You can't bring a lot of people along and those you bring with you have to be your trusted subordinates. As for security, I can promise that even if you send only one man there, he will arrive at the capital safe and sound. As for what happens after arriving at the capital, that is none of my business."
Yun Che nodded. For this trip to the capital, he had decided on a light travel and to send everyone into the Space. If Wang Wei and his men planned to go along, he would put them into the Space as well. However, when they approached the capital, he had to let them out and ask Xing Feng to hypnotize them, planting them with a false memory so they would believe it was a perilous trip. If it was a large group, Xing Feng would be exhausted hypnotizing.
"No problem. There will be no more than ten men with me included."
As Wang Wei was still evaluating the offer, Wang Guoan agreed. He trusted Yun Che, and since he had given his words, then there must be no problem.
"That's good. We are set to leave on July 1. If there is no problem, General Wang, you can just come here directly that day."
Since Wang Guoan personally led the team, he did not inquire any further. They had done business with each other for several times, and Yun Che felt Wang Guoan was someone that could be trusted.
"Okay, then we'll return to be prepared."
Having said that, the two brothers stood up together, but Xing Feng and others remained still, and only Gu Mingxuan got up to send them off.
"You are too bold."
After the two brothers left, Mo Wenyang rolled his eyes speechlessly. Yun Che smiled slightly, "We've got Feng, right? Now that Wang Wei and Wei Kan have decided to assist you, we are actually friends. If I don't promise them, there might be another crack in the Southwest Base that was united for only a short period. None of us want to see that. "
Southwest Base was their base camp, so no matter what happened, it had to be stabilized, especially when they were not around. Yun Che only agreed to help so that they would be grateful.
"Well alright. But first things first, your guys' safety is the most important thing. And sometimes, you've got to learn to trust me a little."
They had already helped him to seize control of the base, and if he couldn't remain in that position by himself, he'd better resign before it was too late.
"Haha… it's not that I don't trust you. I just don't want any unanticipated situation to arise. The Southwest Base is my biggest support."
If he didn't trust him, he wouldn't have teamed up with Xing Feng to put Mo Wenyang in that position in the first place.
"Okay. Do whatever you should in the capital and don't worry. You do not only have the superfunction possessors in the southwest but the entire Southwest Base as your backup!"
In the worst-case scenario, he would bring his family and the other army groups of the Mo Family to the southwest just as Wang Wei did. And then they would cut off their connection with the capital and declare the independency of the southwest!
"Of course."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled. They had been intimately related since long time ago.
To Xing Feng and Yun Che's surprise, Wei Kan also paid them a visit the next day and made the same request as Wang Wei. Thinking that it made no difference whether doing a favor for one man or for two, Yun Che kindly agreed. In the next few days, they were busy making arrangements and entrusting the institute to someone else. After the dinner on June 30, everyone in Chaoyang gathered over at the canteen. Yun Che sent them all into the Space with a simple wave of hand.
"We will leave tomorrow and we might not be able to return in a short while. Auntie, sorry, you may have to stay in the Space for a long time."
The Space had long changed. Huge houses with tile roofs were built around the planting area, encircling the entire planting area. In the back, there was still a large bamboo forest, while the front was dotted with a few bamboos, among which there were stone tables and stools so everyone could sit there chatting and having fun when they were free. But more often, they were either fighting with demon beasts, or in cultivation. Ordinary people wanted to become stronger so that at least they could be able to protect themselves, while superfunction possessors wanted to be more powerful. Everyone worked diligently.
Meanwhile, the Space was growing bigger and bigger because of the large number of people entering. At first, they could still see the mountain tops at the front door, which were now basically invisible. What they could see was the borderless planting area as well as the creeks and rivers stretching to the horizon. Luckily, after they made it to the Golden Pill stage, they could fly using tools and they no longer needed to walk when fighting with demon beasts, which saved them quite some time. And there was no need for Yun Che or Heiyu to send them to the place in batch.
"It's okay, you guys are doing the important thing. Well, all of us are in the Space. Actually, I prefer to be here than the outside world."
Wang Suhua waved her hand to ensure him that she was fine, while Lu's mom and Kong's mom also nodded. For the convenience of communication, in the past few months, Yun Che had even instructed Yu Wenqing to build up base station and servers in the Space, so that they could not only cultivate but call each other or use qq to communicate with each other like they did outside the Space. But of course, only communication within the Space was made possible while one in the Space could not be connected to the network in the outside. Simply speaking, the Space had become a world of its own, a small world that belongs to Chaoyang and Peak.
"That's perfect. Sis, do you have something to say to Gu?"
The night before the trip, he believed that not only Yun Yao, others should also want to spend some time alone. Yun Che and Xing Feng clasped their hands together. They were moving in a fast speed so it wouldn't take more than a few hours before they reached the capital. They should already be at the capital this time the next day and there would be little time left for them to relax.
"Okay"
Knowing what he meant, Yun Yao nodded. She bent down and took over the baby Chenchen was holding and handed him to Yun Che, ignoring Chenchen's protests. She said in a serious tone, "Chenchen, I have something very important to tell you. Come with me to the room first and then you can come to find your little brothers later, okay?"
"Okay."
Chenchen looked at his little brother reluctantly, but finally he nodded obediently. Yun Yao took his hand and stood up, and held Gu Mingxuan's hand with her other hand. After nodding to Yun Che and the others, the three of them went back to their own room.
