As Yun Che and his people expected, Liu Xizhao was kicked out by the Xiao family when he reached the Xiao family after receiving the news. Since it happened at the gate of the yard, he couldn't keep it secret even if he wanted to. This incident was spread soon. Major families seemed calm and tranquil on the surface but they were taking actions sneakily.
The next morning, the Xiao family announced the divorce of Xiao Lan and Liu Xizhao unilaterally. After the divorce, the couple would have no connections. Liu Xizhao almost lost his breath upon receiving the news. He then rushed to the yard of the Xiao family right away. Unfortunately, the result wasn't better than yesterday. His uncle-in-law Xiao Heng came out and humiliated him mercilessly.
None of the major families was surprised by Liu Xizhao's affair. Influential men having affairs was nothing rare, but they never crossed the limits as human beings. They gave what their wives deserved and respect. However, Liu Xizhao had obviously crossed the limits.
In the next few days, Liu Xizhao would be in a really terrible fix. The announcement of divorce was just the beginning. Yun Cheng's plain analysis also agitated the officers of the Liu Army who had played deaf and dumb. Even though the officers had known the affair between Liu Xizhao and Leng Mei long time ago and that Liu Xizhao would have abandoned Leng Mei after making use of her, the officers still chose to abnegate the grace of the Leng family and obey Liu Xizhao against their conscience for their own future. But since the cat was let out of the box, if they still acted against their conscience, they might end up like Liu Xizhao. People's comments were usually the blades that could kill people ruthlessly.
When every major family was busy struggling for rights, Peak Squad spread all the news during their missions to expand the influence and accelerate the deprivation of Liu Xizhao's position as the president. Mo Wenyang and Tan Weiye had sneaked back to the southwest through the space tunnel and brought Wei Kan and Wang Wei to the capital. Yun Che had contacted Wang Guoan. A few hours later, they met in the capital.
Wang Wei and Wei Kan could not accept the suggestion by Yun Che and his people. The two men obviously no longer wanted to get involved in any fight for rights after the fight for the southwest. After the doomsday, leading an ordinary life was the greatest happiness.
"Do you think it possible to lead an ordinary life without doing anything in this era?"
Yun Che didn't mean to threaten them but just told the truth peacefully. He also wanted an ordinary life. He had been anxious for that before the doomsday, but how had he ended up? To lead an ordinary life required the unshakable strength. Only when your strength surpassed everyone and even no one dared to be jealous could you truly lead the life that you wanted. That was just like Chaoyang and Peak that occupied the absolutely dominant position among all the superfunction possessors in the Southwest Base.
"At least, we don't have to intrigue against other people. Yun Che, I teamed up with Senior Wang more than once. In the fight among the three armies, the reason why we went to the wall was completely because of you. We lost and we were sincerely convinced. But when we finally manage to accept our failure and rest on our laurels, you ringleader want to bring us back to the fight again. Do you think it appropriate?"
Wei Kan was resigned. He expected something big to happen since Yun Che insisted on their coming to the capital. Unexpectedly… Wei Kan knew that there must be fights wherever Yun Che was. If Wei Kan had known this, he would have pretended to be sick and rejected to come to the capital no matter what.
"Oh, come on. Wei, we're friends. Let's not quibble."
Wei Kan seemed ready to bring up the past, so Yun Che cottoned up with him hastily since he was in great need of them.
"Cut it out. Do you think I know you for the first time?"
Alright, Wei Kan had learned the experience from the suffering of so many losses. With one look at Yun Che, Wei Kan could tell that Yun Che had a bad intention.
"Uh…"
Yun Che was embarrassed and regretted that he shouldn't have been so brutal. Look, Senior Wei was living on a razor's edge because of Yun Che. How could they have a talk under this situation?
"Don't look at me. I don't know you for the first time either."
When Yun Che turned to Wang Wei, Wang Wei spoke before Yun Che did. How would Wang Wei have suffered fewer losses than Wei Kan? Yun Che was a f*cking trouble maker. To work with him was no different from asking for trouble.
Mo Wenyang, Xing Feng, Yun Cheng and other people who saw this couldn't help giggling, covering their mouths. Although they were accomplices who led to this situation, they were far less disgusting compared with Yun Che. To be honest, they could feel exactly how Senior Wei and Senior Wang felt. Yun Che was indeed incredibly good at talking nonsense.
"Enough. We're talking about something serious. Can you be serious?"
Who the hell wasn't serious first?
Wei Kan and Wang Wei were both rendered speechless. Wasn't Yun Che the one who started the nonsense first?"
"Ahem… I wonder why you have to overthrow the president? The Xing and Mo families own three armies in the capital. As far as I know, Ye Xingchen from Peak is also a member of the Ye and Shu families. As long as you make good use of those relationships, it's rather easy for you to draw them over to your side, isn't it? By then, you'll have five armies. There are totally 12 armies in the Capital Base and you rule nearly have of them. What's the point of involving in the fight with the president? Is it because he can deploy the army-sized police force?"
Restraining himself from laughing, Wang Guoan said as peacefully and reasonably as he could. At first, Yun Che just asked the Wang and Wei families to stay to strive for the position of the president, but his cousin and Senior Wei rejected him. How could the two of them estimate the possibility of that action with no information of the situation? Chances were they could both win. It was hard to say. Any possibility should be taken into consideration, right? Wang Wei and Wei Kan were willing to be ordinary though, that didn't mean they were willing to be useless.
"Look, Wang knows courtesy way better than you do."
Upon hearing that, Yun Che roasted Senior Wei and Senior Wang so that the two of them rebuked him inwardly. But suddenly, Yun Che turned sullen with his eyes fixed on Wang Guoan. "If I tell you we do this for the sake of China and human beings, you're not gonna believe it, are you?"
"No, of course. If you have such a morality, you should fight for the position as a president. Why would you need us?"
Wang Guoan didn't hide his thoughts. They had been in so many fights so that Wang Guoan had known Yun Che more or less. As long as Yun Che wished, it was nothing difficult for him to be the president. It was quite easy for him to feed the whole base with the number of stored materials in Peak and Chaoyang and the planting secret he mastered. What was more, he got Xing Feng, Gu Mingxuan and other talents who were capable both at wars and the political circle. It was not hard for Yun Che to seize the political power and rule the country. But he had designs on Senior Wei and Senior Wang. Obviously, Yun Che had that ambition but lacked the spirit. He wasn't willing to shoulder the lives and future of so many strangers.
"Then just think that we do that for the sake of our own. I have something to tell you. But believe it or not, don't ask me where I got it. I just hope you can consider carefully whether you would like to cooperate with us after listening to it. The thing is that the Northeast Base is secretly doing experiments on human beings and mutant beasts to study mutant human beings and is close to success. Moreover, we connected with Gao Wei. He's not a person without ambitions. Plus, they're studying mutant human beings. I guess I don't need to analyze their purpose for you, do I?"
Yun Che illustrated the thing concisely but seriously. The three men's faces changed completely when they heard mutant human beings. They were not foolish. They could think of many things in an instant.
"Do they wish to rule China with mutant human beings?"
For the first time, Wang Guoan felt his voice shook so fiercely both out of anger and fear.
"I guess so. It's impossible for me to cut open their brains to figure out what they have in their mind. Although Feng and my brother-in-law master the superfunction to know the truth, there are unspoken rules about superfunctions, especially the superfunction of spirit. It doesn't work among superfunction possessors of the same level. Even if it works, the target must be weak. Gao Wei is apparently not one of them. So the only thing we can do is to take precautions."
After Yun Che finished his words, the three men became silent again. If it was Yun Che's personal stuff, they would definitely not change their answer. But the issue was related to the whole China and even the future of human beings, they had to take it into careful consideration. The Northeast Base did researches even at the cost of changing living human beings to realize their ambitions. They even did such a thing to the people in their own base. What would they do to the people from other bases? They couldn't do anything any kinder, could they? Moreover, since they were such ruthless people, if they really ruled China, that might bring the world to the real end.
After quite a while, Wang Wei sighed resignedly, "I knew you would not bring good news to us. In the past, we were opponents. I didn't care that I always had back luck. How come we're friends now but we're still the unlucky ones?"
Wang Wei was depressed. Would that bastard Yun Che ever bring any good news to them?
"Oh, come on. It's got nothing to do with luck. Go ask the major families. Which one of them doesn't long to be the president? What's the point of you to disgust being the president?"
Hearing what Wang Wei said, Yun Che knew it was a yes so that his seriousness vanished and he joked with Wang Wei again.
"That's because they don't know the value of the ordinary life."
Wang Wei shot a piercing glare at Yun Che, feeling upset. If they hadn't experienced the good side of being ordinary, Wang Wei would have treated this as a good chance. But the terrible thing was that he had experienced that and even enjoyed it. Wasn't it unlucky for him to be asked to join a fight at this moment?
"Indeed. Do you f*cking dare to spare us even once? I wish to live a hundred years."
Wei Kan had always taken the side of Wang Wei when it came to crusading against Yun Che. So, Wei Kan was doing so now.
"Isn't it easy to live a hundred years? The institute has announced this already. It's not a problem for superfunction possessors to live a hundred years and even two to three hundred years. Senior Wei, congratulations."
With that said, Yun Che winked at him adorably.
"F*ck off. I don't want to talk to you. You're f*cking annoying."
Senior Wei could hardly hold his anger and it was on the edge of explosion. Wang Wei who had stood on his side giggled together with Xing Feng and other people.
"According to the research, happiness, anger, depression and joy are all dispensable for human beings. To survive longer, one has to go through obstacles constantly. Being angry is also a dispensable part in prolonging one's life."
"Uh…"
Out of blue, Yun Cheng interrupted them in a serious way. Wei Kan was confused. So now he even had to thank Yun Che for pissing them off?
"Haha…"
Yun Che extended his hand and clapped with Yun Cheng. The two siblings laughed like crazy. If possible, Wei Kan would love to slap them on the faces. Yun Che alone had made him angry enough. Now Yun Cheng was here with them. How would Wei Kan still lead a good life? At this moment, Wei Kan had a feeling that he would have an uncertain future.
