Chapter 204 Reactions from all parties
Soon, the news of Li Weiyi's return spread like a hurricane, quickly sweeping across the survival bases on Earth.
Survival Base No. 2, headquarters of the Practitioners Association.
"What did you say!?" Ji Changkong asked with surprise to Qi Feng who was delighted beside him.
"President Ji! President Li is really back!" Qi Feng said happily again. Although he had known the news a year ago, he was still very excited when Li Weiyi really came back.
"I'm back! Good! Good! Good!" After confirming the news again, Ji Changkong was really excited, "Let's go! Let's go to Survival Base No. 7 together!"
Ji Changkong stood up and walked out without saying anything .
Qi Feng smiled lightly and followed quickly.
…
Survival Base No. 1, headquarters of the Alliance Government.
"What did you say!?" Xu Qiang looked incredulous and stared at the staff member who was reporting the matter nearby.
"Director! President Li of the Cultivator Association is back! Moreover, our action against President Li's family has failed!" The staff looked at Xu Qiang nervously, fearing that he would be implicated by Xu Qiang's anger. In fact, to be honest, although he was a staff member of the Alliance Government, he really couldn't stand what Xu Qiang did. His heart actually leaned towards Li Weiyi, but he was in a low position and wanted to help, but he was powerless.
"Back? Why are you back?" Xu Qiang confirmed the news and sat down dejectedly on the office chair.
"Haha! I lost! I lost! I should have taken action earlier! Alas!" Xu Qiang sighed, and then his eyes widened, as if he thought of something, and he hurriedly ran out of the office.
The staff member looked at Xu Qiang running out in a hurry, shook his head and sighed: "If I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?" Then, the staff member walked out of the office and went to do his own work.
As for Xu Qiang, he hurried to the top floor to find Chen Qian, who had ignored government affairs for several years.
"Speaker Chen! Something bad has happened!" As soon as he came in, Xu Qiang shouted in panic.
"Hey! Isn't this our Secretary General of Government? Why are you so anxious? This is not your style!" Chen Qian put down the kettle for watering the flowers, looked at Xu Qiang with sarcasm in his eyes and a playful expression.
As the Minister of Government, Xu Qiang took the power that originally belonged to Chen Qian into his hands. It would be strange if Chen Qian would treat him well!
Moreover, as the general speaker of the alliance government, Chen Qian is truly planning for the long-term development of the alliance government. Otherwise, when the forces behind Xu Qiang seize power, Chen Qian will not give in, but ensure that his power is not weakened. In order not to damage the strength of the alliance government, Chen Qian was forced to hand over the power in his hands. Otherwise, with the strength of Chen Qian, a super-powerful person in the divine realm, how could he be afraid of the forces behind Xu Qiang?
However, although Xu Qiang seized power, Chen Qian's prestige over the years was still there, and no one could shake his position as the Speaker-General!
Xu Qiang could naturally hear the gloating in Chen Qian's tone, but at this moment, he couldn't care less about that.
After standing next to Chen Qian and taking a deep breath, Xu Qiang said, "Chairman Chen! Did you know that Li Weiyi just came back?"
"Oh!" Chen Qian was slightly surprised, and then said as a matter of course: "Li Weiyi is coming back, you, Chief Xu, know that, why are you making such a fuss?"
"Of course I know that Li Weiyi is coming back, but he comes back at the wrong time!" Xu Qiang said bitterly.
"Oh? What do you mean?" Chen Qian put away his emotions and asked with some confusion. He didn't know what Xu Qiang had done to be so afraid of Li Weiyi's return.
Previously, Xu Qiang ordered people to monitor Li Weiyi's family. He knew about this. However, if that was all, Xu Qiang would not be so scared. He would sincerely apologize to Li Weiyi. With Li Weiyi's personality, he would most likely let the matter go.
But now, looking at Xu Qiang's expression, Chen Qian knew that this guy must have done something to offend Li Weiyi's family again.
"Chairman Chen! Today, the people I sent to kidnap Li Weiyi's family happened to meet Li Weiyi who had just returned to Earth, and were all killed by Li Weiyi! I'm afraid Li Weiyi will come to Survival Base No. 1 soon. Chairman , can you teach me? What should I do?" Xu Qiang begged humbly, hoping to get some help from Chen Qian. If he really had no one to ask for help, he would not come to Chen Qian. However, if he could get help from Chen Qian, the forces behind him would have to think twice before pushing him out to take the blame.
Xu Qiang’s idea was good, but Chen Qian really couldn’t agree with what Xu Qiang did.
"General Xu! At this point, you don't want to apologize to Li Weiyi, but you are still trying to threaten Li Weiyi with his family. Your behavior is really...General Xu! To put it bluntly, you are asking for trouble! How can you live like this?" Chen Qian shook his head. He was extremely disappointed with Xu Qiang's actions. He even dared to hold Li Weiyi's family hostage to threaten Li Weiyi. He was simply hopeless.
"Mr. Speaker Chen! I, Xu Qiang, am here to seek your help! Not to listen to you scolding me, Xu Qiang!" When Xu Qiang heard Chen Qian say that about him, his face immediately changed.
"Haha! Chief Xu! You have to have the right attitude when asking for help! I, Chen Qian, can't handle your attitude! Chief Xu! I'm sorry I won't keep you company! Humph!" Chen Qian snorted coldly and left.
"You!..." Looking at Chen Qian who just turned away, Xu Qiang felt angry, but he could do nothing about it.
“Beep, beep, beep!…”
Just then, Xu Qiang's communicator rang.
Then, Xu Qiang raised his wrist and looked at the communicator, but when he saw the communication request on the communicator clearly, his expression changed. He nervously answered the call, carefully put the communicator to his ear, and looked like he was respectfully listening to instructions.
Then, a deep male voice sounded from the communicator.
"I already know what you did today. Remember! You must appease Li Weiyi and don't let his anger get to me! As long as his anger can be eliminated, I can agree to any conditions!"
"Yes! Got it!"
"If this matter is not handled well, you know the consequences!"
"Don't worry! You won't be implicated!"
"Um!"
Immediately, there was a busy tone in the communicator, indicating that the call was hung up.
It was only then that Xu Qiang straightened his slightly bent body and breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, his forehead and palms were all sweaty. Just a few short words scared Xu Qiang like this. Obviously, the identity of the person on the other side of the communicator was not simple.
However, it is really hard to imagine that Xu Qiang, as the Minister of Government, could be so afraid of others.
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Xu Qiang hurriedly left Chen Qian's office.
As soon as Xu Qiang left, Chen Qian came in. Looking at Xu Qiang's back, Chen Qian looked thoughtful.
Just now, although Chen Qian left with a wave of his sleeves, he actually went to a house next door. And with Chen Qian's cultivation level, he naturally heard everything Xu Qiang said on the communicator.
"Who is behind Xu Qiang?" Chen Qian's eyes narrowed slightly, but doubts gradually arose in his heart.
…
Survival Base No. 3, Chamber of Commerce Headquarters.
Bai Yaobang walked into Fan Tianlei's office with doubts.
"Alliance Leader Fan! Is there anything that Yaobang needs to do?"
Bai Yaobang looked down on Fan Tianlei from the bottom of his heart because he had joined forces with the Union Government to deal with the Practitioner Association. Moreover, Fan Tianlei had sent people to monitor his daughter and his two in-laws together with the Union Government. This was the reason why Bai Yaobang disliked Fan Tianlei the most.
If Fan Tianlei was not the leader of the Chamber of Commerce and a super-powerful person in the divine realm, Bai Yaobang would not have had the time to pay attention to him.
"Haha! Yaobang is here? Come and sit down! Come and sit down!" Fan Tianlei stood up enthusiastically, and personally pulled out a chair for Bai Yaobang, inviting Bai Yaobang to sit down.
Bai Yaobang was very confused and didn't understand Fan Tianlei's intention, so he could only sit down on the chair slowly.
"Leader! Is there anything you want me to tell you about?" Bai Yaobang asked again in confusion.
"Haha! Yaobang! It's nothing serious, I just want to tell you a good news!" Fan Tianlei smiled and patted Bai Yaobang on the shoulder, then said: "According to our people in the No. 7 Survival Base, your son-in-law has returned from Jupiter."
"What!? 'Weiyi' is back!?" Bai Yaobang confirmed with Fan Tianlei again with some surprise.
"Yeah!" Fan Tianlei nodded with a smile, "It is said that he just came back today!"
"He's back! It's good to be back! It's good to be back!" This news was indeed good news for Bai Yaobang. With his son-in-law back safely, his daughter no longer had to worry about her life. For more than a decade, she had been supporting the family alone, which was too tiring.
However, Bai Yaobang soon figured out something. Fan Tianlei must have called him over because he wanted him to say a few good words for him in front of his son-in-law, so as to resolve the issue of him and the alliance government monitoring his daughter and in-laws, and prevent his son-in-law from taking action against him.
Thinking of this, Bai Yaobang looked at Fan Tianlei again. To be honest, he really despised Fan Tianlei's behavior. However, thinking more deeply, Fan Tianlei was also doing it for the survival of the business alliance. After all, the power of the alliance government is now much stronger, but it just lacks the top combat power.
"Yaobang! I won't beat around the bush with you. In the past few years, it is true that I, Old Fan, did some wrong things. I don't expect Li Weiwei to forgive me. I just hope he won't implicate other people in the Chamber of Commerce. Alas!" As he said this, Fan Tianlei let out a long sigh.
Bai Yaobang looked at Fan Tianlei in front of him and felt that he had aged a lot in an instant. Although he did not like Fan Tianlei's attempt to curry favor with the powerful, he also knew that he had to do so for the survival of the Chamber of Commerce.
"Okay! I'll talk to him about it. As for how he handles it, I can't completely control it."
"Good! Good! Good! With your words, I, Fan Tianlei, feel relieved!" Fan Tianlei patted Bai Yaobang's shoulder solemnly, and then said: "Bai Jian is a good kid! He is also good at dealing with people and things. After he breaks through to the God Realm, I will pass my position to him! Young man, you should be more responsible!"
"Let's go! Accompany me to visit a few other houses and pave the way for that kid Bai Jian in advance."
Having said that, Fan Tianlei walked out.
Bai Yaobang thought about it for a moment, then stood up and followed him out.
