High Martial Arts: Starting from the Strongest Junior High Student
Chapter 178 Retrospective
The adults' business is over.
Now is the time for middle-aged people.
At the banquet.
Everyone was talking about what was happening in Zhongzhou.
Di Feng suddenly stood up and beckoned Di Jiahao to walk out of the crowd.
Di Jiahao looked up nervously and asked, "Dad, is it over?"
Di Feng patted his head and said, "It's over. Let's go pick up your mother."
Di Jiahao finally breathed a sigh of relief and followed Di Feng to the bamboo house.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, he saw Li Qianzhi, who had just finished her makeup, standing in the dim and quiet courtyard. She was wearing a snow-blue dress. She paused for a moment when she met Di Feng's gaze, and tears welled up in her eyes again.
Di Feng smiled and said, "You look beautiful today."
As she spoke, she gently nudged Di Jiahao.
Di Jiahao was speechless, thinking that his parents were trying to send him away again so they could be lovey-dovey.
He left helplessly and walked straight to Chen Shi's table.
Li Qianzhi rushed forward and suddenly lunged to hug her husband, still crying.
"Honey, it's terrifying! It's like hell there. I'd rather be in prison."
Di Feng gently patted Li Qianzhi's back and said, "It's alright, we'll both be in prison from now on."
"What do you mean?" Li Qianzhi suddenly came to her senses and shrank back.
As Di Feng pulled her hand and walked outside, he said, "The numerous charges you submitted are enough to warrant a suspended death sentence."
"If you escape from prison, you'll at least get a life sentence, right?"
Li Qianzhi was taken aback: "Then we have to go back?"
"Are you scared?" Di Feng asked, looking at her.
She shook her head and said, "Now, I'm not afraid as long as I'm with you."
Di Feng gently lifted his glasses and smiled, "It's alright, I've already made arrangements. I'll transfer him to the court in Jiangzhou, which is Yang Yi's territory. I'll try my best to get him parole."
"It just means you can't leave Jiangzhou for the rest of your life. You can still play cards with your sister-in-law."
"It's not a big problem."
Li Qianzhi asked anxiously, "What about Jiahao?"
"Jiahao is having the time of his life," Di Yun laughed. "Hongyi promised us that she would make an exception and let Jiahao go directly to the Women's Academy to cultivate."
"You should still worry about us, lest we become grandparents in a couple of years."
"You'll need to take care of the child then."
"Oh! No!" Li Qianzhi said, head drooping, "I'm exhausted, especially the first six years, it was killing me!"
The couple hadn't taken such an intimate walk in many years.
Di Feng slapped Li Qianzhi's bottom and said, "Will you dare to do bad things behind my back again?"
Li Qianzhi shook her head vigorously, saying, "I never want to go to that kind of awful place again in my life."
"So, Brother Feng, have you spent your entire life fighting against demons like that?"
"I'm not part of the main force, at best I'm just an auxiliary force." Di Feng shrugged and said, "My son and Chen Shicai are the main force in the future, and we have to face them head-on."
"And you, think about who you're tripping up!"
Li Qianzhi said with a mournful face, "I was wrong."
"And Zhou Ruo instructed me from beginning to end!"
By this time, the two had reached the outside of the square. Di Feng pointed ahead and asked, "You mean her?"
Zhou Ruo was playing chess and drinking with Chen Wan'er. The black and white pieces on the chessboard were clearly distinguishable. Disciples from the Women's Academy gathered around to watch, and some generals stood at a distance to observe the progress of the game.
Just when everyone felt the situation was extremely tense, Zhou Ruo sighed and said, "I concede."
Chen Wan'er covered her mouth and chuckled, as cheerful as a little girl.
"Two million, two million~"
Zhou Ruo tapped the martial arts wristband and said with a wry smile, "It's gotten into your hands."
At this moment, a woman in white walked over leisurely and said with a smile, "I also want to play chess with Wan'er."
Shi Xincheng followed closely behind, coughing as he said, "My disciple, your master also knows a little bit about chess."
The man in white glanced at him and said, "I won't play chess with that old geezer."
Then, Li Qianzhi appeared before everyone.
She stared at the scene before her in disbelief and asked, "What does this mean?"
"Wan'er, she's the mastermind!"
Zhou Ruo pointed at Chen Wan'er and said, "I'm just an assistant; she's the mastermind."
"What do you mean?" Li Qianzhi was a little confused.
Zhou Ruo then pointed at Chen Wan'er and said, "She even took the photos of that slut from the Qin family having an affair."
"Do you think I'm that idle? How could I possibly find dirt on so many families in Jiangzhou?"
Li Qianzhi was in a daze.
Zhou Ru crossed her legs and said, "Actually, I was the one who contacted you first."
"It's true that Master said he wanted to target Chen Shi."
"It was Wan'er who contacted me after she realized Master's true intentions."
Then, Di Yun sat down as well, listening intently to the two women's recap.
Chen Wan'er stood up and said, "Let's talk in the conference room."
The officials came to the meeting room and sat in a row.
There were only five people in total: Chen Wan'er and her husband, Di Feng and his wife, and Zhou Ruo.
Chen Wan'er's clear voice echoed in the secret room.
"Actually, it was only after I learned about that matter that I realized my master's true intentions were not what they seemed."
"What is it?" Di Yun asked, raising an eyebrow.
Chen Wan'er said calmly, "Xiahou Hongtian."
Zhou Ruo's eyes narrowed.
Chen Wan'er continued, "All the previous reasoning was based on the premise that Master thought I had lied to her and was unaware of Chen Shi's existence, so it was valid."
"But the two children share the same blood. She's the sixth-ranking member of Congress, how could she not know?"
"War is about to begin, and Di Feng, as the Secretary of Ningchuan Province, will definitely be their target. The Long family is very meticulous in their work. To deal with them, we cannot wait for them to strike first; we must strike first, or it will be too late."
"So when I dealt with Li Qianzhi, it was actually my master who was luring the Long family to take action."
"Master's stance has been wavering for so many years, all for this moment."
"The Long family had no doubts about her, which is why they were able to cut off one of Long Yichuan's hands so easily, or rather, both of his hands. Long Xuan's position as the Central Plains General Secretary was also gone. He was just a person with strength but no real power."
Chen Wan'er turned her head to look at Di Yun and asked, "Do you still remember what Master said to me the first time he spoke to me?"
Di Yun's expression shifted slightly, and he said, "Hoping you'll fire the first shot?"
Chen Wan'er tilted her head and smiled, "Just like now."
Di Yunhu's body trembled!
"I only gradually learned who she meant by 'the opening salvo', how it was fired, and what weapons were used."
Li Qianzhi felt a chill run down her spine. She was now even more certain that she could not participate in any kind of struggle and could not understand it at all.
But then, Di Feng asked in confusion, "Who is Xiahou Hongtian? What does 'same blood' mean?"
Chen Wan'er's smile vanished, and she said, "You'll find out then."
Then, she looked at Li Qianzhi again: "The laboratory you stole was full of human experimental specimens."
Li Qianzhi's delicate body trembled, and she said, "A human... specimen!?"
"Yes." Chen Wan'er said with a serious expression, "The name of the person in charge of all the experiments is Long Yang."
"The key project is the experimental project—the adaptation and application of the Primordial Divine Blood."
Di Feng's eyes flickered with unpredictable emotions: "Primordial God Blood?"
Chen Wan'er said with a complicated expression, "You all know about the qualification improvement program."
"That project has the same person in charge as the original project manager."
Di Yun's pupils suddenly contracted.
They are all Chen Shi's parents!?
"Who?" Zhou Ruo asked curiously.
Chen Wan'er shook her head and said nothing.
