Chapter 2436 What is ahead?
The car was driving on the fields outside Weicheng.
Du Yanhao sat in the driver's seat, looking around, searching for his brother's whereabouts.
Ling Tian and Lin Qi sat in the back seat, both of them silent.
After about five minutes, Lin Qi sighed and said, "So...her brother was killed by you, Big Brother? Then she must be super angry? She hates you to death, and by the way, she hates me too?"
"That's not the case." Ling Tian shook his head. "But she is indeed quite dissatisfied with me. Of course, it's not because of her brother's affairs, but because their Li family has become the number one family in Weicheng, so she hates me."
"Ok?"
Hearing Ling Tian's words, Lin Qi was obviously stunned.
He stared at Ling Tian blankly, then came back to his senses and thought seriously, trying to figure out what Ling Tian meant.
What do you mean, the Li family has become the number one family, so they hate the eldest brother?
According to Lin Qi, the Li family was able to become the number one family because of Ling Tian's help.
Since the Li family is the number one family, the Wang family should have been eliminated.
In other words... all the troubles are over, but Li Qian hates her elder brother?
With just one sentence, Lin Qi felt like his CPU was about to burn out.
He really didn't expect that so many things happened in Weicheng during the time he was away, and his fiancée had experienced so much.
But the most important thing is that Lin Qi really couldn't figure out what Ling Tian meant by that sentence.
Li Qian hates Ling Tian. Doesn’t she know how important her elder brother is?
Just when Lin Qi was confused, Ling Tian told him everything that had happened during this period.
After everything was explained, Lin Qi was stunned, his eyes full of confusion. He stared blankly out the window, as if countless question marks appeared in his mind.
Doubt, confusion, and a hint of disgust.
Many emotions began to emerge in Lin Qi's mind, making him suddenly doubt whether finding Li Qian to become the so-called true love was the right choice.
After all, if Ling Tian hadn't asked Li Qian to do so, he would definitely not have sought out the Li family as a partner and supported them to sit in the position of the first family.
Perhaps Ling Tian would not have been unable to find the whereabouts of the passage.
At this moment, Lin Qi suddenly began to doubt his own gaze.
Ling Tian noticed Lin Qi's reaction and knew what he was thinking. He smiled and said, "You...don't overthink things. They're just small issues, okay? The Li family's reaction isn't because of your poor vision. It's because when you hold enormous power, you can't help yourself."
"If the Li family hadn't become the number one family, they wouldn't have undergone such a huge change. But suddenly appearing in the number one position inevitably makes people lose themselves, so this is a reasonable reaction. You don't have to blame yourself, and you don't have to think that your vision is wrong, understand?"
Ling Tian comforted Lin Qi softly and answered his questions.
Lin Qi nodded and said softly, "Thank you, big brother. I understand. When I return to Weicheng, I will ask Li Qian to cancel the engagement. At that time, I still wanted to stay in Weicheng. I'm sorry, big brother, I was blinded at that time."
"It's okay." Ling Tian waved his hand. "If one day in the future you really meet someone worthy of entrusting your life to, I will definitely not stop you and force you to come with me. On the contrary, I will solve your problems before leaving, because I don't want you to be unhappy. Do you understand?"
Ling Tian's words not only moved Lin Qi, but even Du Yanhao in the front seat almost had tears in his eyes.
Although Du Yanhao had spent a lot of time with Ling Tian, he had never been able to fully understand his attitude towards his companions.
But today, after seeing what Ling Tian said to Lin Qi, Du Yanhao suddenly began to look forward to his future.
What if his brother is not satisfied with the current situation and doesn't want him to go with Ling Tian?
Then Du Yanhao would definitely choose to sever ties with his brother because of Ling Tian.
It can be said that for Du Yanhao now, Ling Tian is more important than Du Yanfeng and should be cherished more.
Most importantly, Du Yanhao liked Ling Tian's attitude towards his companions very much and wanted to follow him all the time.
Now after hearing Ling Tian's words, he silently decided in his heart that next time, if he needed to stand in front of Ling Tian, he would definitely be the first one.
Since Du Yanhao was so moved, Lin Qi naturally wouldn't be too calm.
He smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Thank you, brother. I feel more and more that choosing to go with you was the best choice I made in my life."
"Okay, stop with the sentimental talk. Once we get back to Weicheng and find the passage, we'll head to Central City. That's when we can relax."
"I understand, brother."
After that, several people kept chatting and the car was driving fast.
Finally, when they saw the dilapidated walls of Jincheng, Du Yanhao stopped the car and frowned slightly, saying, "That's not right, brother. Why can't I find my brother? They should be nearby, but I looked around and couldn't find him."
After hearing Du Yanhao's question, Ling Tian also made a brief perception and finally found that it was indeed the case.
In the surroundings, not to mention warriors, even the existence of ordinary people cannot be sensed. It seems that Du Yanfeng and the others are indeed not around?
But where can they go?
Just as Ling Tian was puzzled, Du Yanhao pointed to the ruins of the Golden City ahead and said, "Brother, how about we go in and take a look? I... I still want to go in and take a look, and by the way, look for the City Lord I told you about before."
"Well, let's go in and take a look. Lin Qi is back now, so we need to deal with the troubles outside Weicheng during this time."
Ling Tian's words touched Du Yanhao's heart. He nodded and drove towards the city wall of Jincheng.
From a distance, the walls of Jincheng City can only be seen to be in ruins, with holes of various sizes on them.
But if you look closely, you can see the bloodstains on the city walls and the corpses piled up around them. It can be said that just by looking at these, you can know how tragic the battle was at that time.
As Ling Tian observed his surroundings, Lin Qi beside him asked curiously, "Brother, does this city called Jincheng also have a passage? Do you think it's possible?"
"It's hard to say." Ling Tian shook his head. "But I did want to search for it before. Why not take this opportunity to give it a try?"
"Brother, I can help!" Du Yanhao said with a smile from the front seat. "I know everything about Jincheng. I'm sure... I'm sure... W-what's going on? Brother, look, what's that up ahead...?!"
