Chapter 316. Being in Luck (II)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Ying Feng disappeared quickly, and it didn’t take long before Wang Qi and his men came over.

Ouyang Chuan was not there. Long told him not to stay here but to stay outside… just in case.

If the negotiation didn’t go well, then Long’s safety would at least be guaranteed.

In fact, except of Ouyang Chuan, there were many Shadow Guardians waiting outside the Black Wind Forest.

Long just wanted their identities as the best cover of his plan.

It was a surprise to meet someone like Wang Qi!

After all, if Wang Qi was there to revenge, that was quite reasonable!

Even if the empress of Eastern Darkness died in Wang Qi’s hands, he was killed by his people, not someone from Tianlong Dynasty!

After the door closed, Long looked at the four people who came over and smiled slightly.

“Leader Wang, you are from Eastern Darkness. Am I right?”

What Long said directly startled Wang Mao and the other two, but Wang Qi was very calm. He even nodded calmly. “Yes, Your Majesty.”

He pointed out Long’s identity at the same time.

Then he knelt down on one knee. “Wang Qi paying respect to Your Majesty. Long live, Your Majesty!”

Wang Mao and the two glanced at each other before they knelt down. “Long live, Your Majesty!”

Long didn’t talk until all of them finished their salutes, “Rise. I’m Lin Yuan in this place, a man who wants to do business with you, Leader Wang.”

“Sure…” Wang Qi stood up, followed by his brothers.

Before they got in, they had made their minds to follow Wang Qi!

They would do what Wang Qi would do, support and join him no matter what!

“Wang Qi, do you know what business I want to do with you?”

“Brother Lin, please enlighten me,” Wang Qi said.

Long laughed upon hearing such address. “We have the same… the one we don’t want to be alive, do we?”

Wang Qi nodded directly. “Yes.” He stared directly at Long.

Long smiled slightly. “Then, we work together to kill this person whom we both want to kill. After killing this person, as long as you are still alive, I will set you free, and you don’t even have to bear the accusation of wanted criminals. Of course, you don’t have to worry about money and treasures for your future use. How does that sound?”

Wang Qi took a deep breath. “Thank you, Brother Lin.”

“Wang Qi, let me ask you, what is your favorite condition among the above terms?”

“Freedom, and identity. The four of us want to live fair and square. Although we are capable masters whom common general officers couldn’t even get near, if there is a chance that we can be free, why should we refuse? If we can wipe out our sins, why don’t we take it?”

“Good!” Long stood up. “Freedom and identity are what you love the most. However, please forgive me for considering the worst. I have not known you for a long time. Although we have the common enemy, this is something big. Therefore, I thought of one way that might not sound upright.”

Wang Qi pressed the corner of his lower lip. “Brother Lin, please.”

“This is the poison formulated by Doctor Liu Suifeng. He said that no one in the world can detoxify it except him. After taking it, if you take the antidote within three months, you will be fine. But if not, you will die! Desperately before death. This is what I mentioned the worst situation. Wang Qi, and the three of you, are you willing to take it?”

Wang Qi’s face changed, but this time, the rest were much calmer.

Wang Qi gritted his teeth, “Brother Lin, I’m willing to take it. But can you not force my brothers to take it?”

“Brother!” The three stared at Wang Qi discontentedly.

Wang Qi looked at Long stubbornly.

Long sighed quietly and shook his head slowly. “That won’t do.”

“Brother, we are willing to take it, just like you,” Wang Mao said first.

Wang Jiu smiled slightly. “Brother, if you can take it, why can’t we? That’s selfish for you to say.”

“Yeah, brother. Even if you forbid us from taking it, what’s the point? We’ve promised to live and die together. If you can’t live, why should we still be alive? Take it or not, what’s the difference?” Wang Shu refuted.

Tears welled up in Wang Qi’s eyes for an instant.

Long was moved slightly, but he just sighed. “Although I’m thinking for the worst. I won’t hurt you afterwards. If you are willing to take the bet, please have faith in me.”

Wang Qi finally nodded. “I wouldn’t mind. What Brother Lin said is reasonable, and we are willing to take it.”

“Okay.” Long smiled slightly. He opened the medicine bottle and gave the four pills inside to Wang Qi and the others.

They all swallowed the pills without cheating at all.

Long watched how they swallowed, so did Ying Feng.

After they finished, Long said, “We will set off tomorrow night, disguised as a business troop of smugglers. You can bring some extra hands, but ten at most.”

“Okay, we understand.”

“Since it is a disguise, it must be as good as real. And that, I believe, you will do better than my guardians, right?”

“Of course, please rest assured, Brother Lin. No one can tell the difference!”

Long said with satisfaction, “It’s late at night. You four may go to rest.”

“Farewell.”

After Wang Qi and the others left, Ying Feng slightly put down his guard.

Ouyang Chuan came in from outside. “Did it work?”

Long nodded. “Of course. It never fails when I do it myself.”

Ouyang Chuan sighed. “Sometimes, I just have to admire your good luck.”

“Luck?” Long raised his eyebrows, and then refuted disapprovingly, “When it comes to success, luck is nothing to be counted on.”

Ouyang Chuan looked at him. “Yet nothing will be accomplished with bad luck!”

Long paused and touched his chin. “You are right… nothing will be accomplished with bad luck…”

…?

If he was not lucky, at this time, he would have already been died.

Then how could he get the chance of rebirth…

And even met the one he loved after he came to this world.

The one he tried to ride on the coattails was actually the same person he liked. That was certainly a kind of luck, wasn’t it?

Long smiled slightly.

“They are really willing to take that poison? This is truly…” Ouyang Chuan didn’t know what to say, but deep inside, he admired Long even more.

“People gamble. Whether they like it or not, when there is no other way, yet the opportunity is right in front of them… they will take the risk. So, it’s nothing strange. But… it satisfies me to see their temperaments are all good.”

“They don’t prefer senseless carnage indeed.” Ouyang Chuan nodded. “If they do, the Black Wind Forest would not exist, no matter how many natural defenses it has.”

“True…” Long smiled. “So at the beginning, I was gambling too. And look at it now, the result isn’t so bad.”

Ouyang Chuan rolled his eyes. “Well, you are really in good luck.”

After saying a few more words, Ouyang Chuan left.

Long then dispatched Ying Feng as well.

When Long was left in the room alone, he looked at the moon outside the window… and found himself lonely again.

He wondered if his Qingzhou was asleep at this time?

They had been apart for too long. Even if they had disputes before…

They seemed to have disappeared during the separation time.

Thinking about it now, he realized he was a bit naive back then.

Since he had always let his Qingzhou win, it wouldn’t hurt to keep it that way a few more times!

Or otherwise…

What a pity. There was no turning back.

And… he intended to stop regretting.

He was determined to make his own efforts to bring a peaceful environment, a peaceful… world to the one he loved. So, he must work hard. Even if he had to take some time away now, if the result was good, then everything was worth it, wasn’t it?

“Qingzhou, wait for my return. That’s what I said in the letter. Did you see that?” Long wondered.
