"One autumn rain and one cold. Ten autumn rains put on cotton."
In the early morning near the late autumn, the rain that had been brewing all night finally fell from the sky when the sky was dewy.
Ye Nianlun put down the notebook in her hand and opened the window in the study room of the West Flower Hall. She looked out the window at the rain falling from the highest place in the sky and felt the bleak autumn atmosphere. She turned to Lin Xuan Yuan, who was smoking, and smiled.
Lin Xuanyuan did not say anything. He just looked at the rain outside the window, The West Room was once the residence and office of the founding Prime Minister, It was now Ye Nianlun 's office. Every time the Begonia bloomed in early summer, this place would become one of the grand sceneries of the Hidden Dragon Sea. Now that it was approaching the depths of winter, the Begonia withered. However, this place still maintained a dignified, quiet and simple style. Along with the dripping rain outside the window, it added a trace of animation to this legendary place.
Lin Xuanyuan glanced at the rain outside the window. He turned his gaze back to his desk, Ye Nianlun and Guo Tian Long's study rooms were two completely different styles, Perhaps because of his different responsibilities, Guo Tianlong's study was deep, dignified, and unfathomable. He was in that room and was swept by the old man's cold and fierce eyes. Unless he truly had a clear conscience, not many cadres would be able to maintain stability and naturalness. Ye Nianlun 's study seemed to be dignified and had the aura of a king.
Every time Lin Xuanyuan came to the Hidden Dragon Sea, no matter whose office he went to, there were only two words in his mind.
Strength!
Regardless of whether it was Guo Tianlong, Ye Nianlun , Chen Hua Lou, Yang Xiu Yuan, or Lin Qing Tian, anyone who lived here was undoubtedly one of the most powerful people in the entire Divine Boat Empire!
This was not his own combat strength, but the monstrous power he held in his hand!
Fighting power can destroy, can kill.
However, true power could push everything, destroy everything, and sweep everything.
To a man, power was the true power that was invincible.
If the Emperor did not possess a world-shaking martial power, he would still be the Emperor.
But what if he lost the royal family?
Every time he came here, Lin Xuanyuan's mind was in a mess. He liked to think nonsense. The power center of the empire seemed to carry a kind of demonic power that could easily induce anyone's great thirst for power.
Anyone who lived here might not be considered a great man, but they could definitely leave their own footprints in history.
That was why every time Lin Xuanyuan came here, he would think about how to control the real power that belonged to him.
"There are fewer and fewer people who dare to be distracted by me. Xuanyuan, what are you thinking?"
A gentle laugh pulled Lin Xuanyuan's thoughts back to normal. Lin Xuanyuan immediately regained his senses. Opposite him, Ye Nianlun had already walked back from the window and sat behind his desk. However, the window was not closed. The rain knocked on the ground and the lotus pond outside the window. Lin Xuanyuan's mood gradually calmed down.
"I'm thinking about my own future."
Lin Xuanyuan took a deep breath of cigarette and chuckled. A very ordinary sentence came out of his mouth, but it carried an indescribable sense of happiness.
Heh, the future.
This was something that Lin Xuanyuan had never thought of before. Perhaps he had thought about it, but absolutely incomplete, For the sake of unparalleled combat power, He did not hesitate to overdraw his future life, At that time, The future in his mind was filled with hatred and a pair of exquisite eyes, He had also thought that, Most likely, his future would be to frantically search for the Eye of Horus after revenge, and then cure Linglong's eyes. Perhaps his luck would be worse, and he would directly die on the way to find the Eye of Horus. Or perhaps, his luck would be better, and he would cure Linglong's eyes. The two of them would spend the last few days together quietly, perhaps leaving behind a child or something.
Then, on a snowy or sunny day, he died in Linglong's arms and was buried on the Kunlun Mountains.
This was probably the brightest future he had ever imagined.
As for the better ones, Lin Xuanyuan had never thought about them, nor could he imagine them. He even felt that he did not have the qualifications to think about them.
But now, it was different, it was really different.
Lin Xuanyuan could almost clearly feel his transformation. It was not a transformation from a madman to a normal person in the eyes of outsiders, but a transformation in his own heart.
With the balance method and the means to survive, some things that had been subconsciously suppressed by him began to revive crazily.
It was as if it was human nature to be greedy.
He wants more!
Power, wealth, beauty, all these things that he had once despised, after he had the chance to live, that desire began to ferment crazily in his heart.
Lin Xuanyuan knew that this desire was called ambition.
Perhaps even he did not realize that deep down in his heart, he still worshipped the Emperor.
Clouds and rain, one hand covering the sky, one person shaking the world, invincible under the heavens.
He had all sorts of shortcomings, far from being perfect, but he could definitely be considered a real man.
A man should be like this!
He worshipped his master, Xuanyuan Longhu, his second master, Ye Chunqiu, and his foster father, Qin Tianjiao. When they first came into contact with martial arts, the figures of these three people were like three mountains standing beside Lin Xuanyuan.
It is said that a man needs to look up at the back of another man in order to grow.
At that time, there were three figures that Lin Xuanyuan needed to look up to.
That was why he had made rapid progress. He had survived countless times and struggled countless times. After reaching the peak of his cultivation technique, he had been respectfully addressed as His Highness the War God by countless people.
And after that?
He met the emperor.
If Xuanyuan Longhu, Ye Chunqiu, and Qin Tianjiao had stimulated Lin Xuanyuan's pursuit of martial arts, then the appearance of the Emperor had directly stimulated Lin Xuanyuan's ambition to pursue power.
This kind of stimulation wasn't obvious when Lin Xuanyuan didn't have much life, but when his body's endurance became stronger and stronger, or when it was no longer a luxury, his ambition finally began to expand.
Was he a peerless overlord who looked down on the world like an emperor?
I don't think so.
Reconstruct the Xuanyuan bloodline?
Was this kind of responsibility considered ambitious?
Lin Xuanyuan suddenly realized that there seemed to be a goal in front of him, but there seemed to be no goal at all. He felt that he was different from the Emperor, but that kind of expanding ambition had already started to confuse him more and more.
Perhaps Lin Xuanyuan knew, or perhaps he didn't know, that this kind of future that was certain and uncertain about what he wanted was something that every young man had once been confused about.
This feeling was incomparably fresh, pleasantly surprising and confusing.
"The future …"
Ye Nianlun smiled and nodded. He looked at the young child sitting in front of him with a strange gaze and asked, "Then what is your future like? What do you want? What height do you want to reach? What are your goals? Do you know all of this?"
Only in this kind of atmosphere would the relationship between the two of them be more like a conversation between a junior and an elder than a conversation between two giants.
Lin Xuanyuan shook his head and sighed. "I only know that during this period of time, I have many more ideas than before. There are more and more ideas that I didn't have in the past. It seems that I'm a little unsatisfied."
"If you are not satisfied, then you have ambition. Ambition is a good thing."
Ye Nianlun laughed and said, He could not see the effect of not sleeping at all in the middle of the night on him, His energy was still vigorous, When Lin Xuanyuan came to the West Flower Hall, it was around 2:30 in the morning. Without prior notice, He came alone and said, At that time, Ye Nianlun had just rested for less than an hour, After getting up, Lin Xuanyuan explained his purpose and brought him to the study. After a casual chat, He smoked a cigarette, Then, Ye Nianlun began to read Cheng Shuang's diary seriously. Cheng Shuang's diary was very thick and had a lot of contents. Ye Nianlun read it very seriously. After reading it, it was already early five o'clock. However, he did not seem to be in a hurry to discuss the contents of the diary with Lin Xuan Yuan. Instead, he was excited to chat with him about the ambitions of men. Lin Xuan Yuan smiled bitterly and did not say anything else.
Ye Nianlun took a deep look at Lin Xuanyuan and said earnestly, "Think about it yourself, isn't it?" A while ago, when you brought Xuanyuan Long Hu back to the War God Palace, Fuxing and I talked on the phone. At that time, Fuxing told me on the phone that with the hope of survival, you would change sooner or later. It's normal for you to be ambitious. At your age, you have enough strength but don't want anything. It's completely unrealistic. "
He paused for a moment and continued to laugh, "Fuxing has waited a long time for this day."
"Huh?"
Lin Xuanyuan looked up at Ye Nianlun .
Has the Emperor waited for this day for a long time?
"In the end, you want to leave the royal family. War God King, it's impossible for you to do this for the rest of your life, right? As for the reason, you should understand."
Ye Nianlun looked at Lin Xuanyuan meaningfully and said.
Lin Xuanyuan was silent.
Reason?
Of course he understood, His growth was completely explosive, In his twenties, His combat strength had almost reached a peak that countless geniuses would never reach in their entire lives, When he became the War God King of the Imperial Family, the younger generation of the Imperial Family, who was around his age, had not grown up at all. The Emperor was here, so he could naturally suppress him. However, many years later, if the Emperor was no longer here, Lin Xuanyuan's position would undoubtedly become very awkward. At that time, no matter how good his relationship with Wang Bolong was, some things would become very subtle.
However, once he left the imperial clan and gave up the imperial clan's authority, he would definitely become the most natural ally of the imperial clan based on his experience as a magnate in the imperial clan. At that time, even if the emperor was no longer around, Lin Xuanyuan and the imperial clan could still help each other. This was obvious.
When he decided to take the position of War God King, the Emperor had already told him that he would help the royal family increase their combat strength and intimidate the Dark World. Lin Xuanyuan could also borrow the energy of the royal family to avenge himself. It was a matter of mutual benefit, and he was extremely honest and open. Neither he nor the Emperor had any other thoughts.
"So, Renaissance is waiting for you to come to your senses, No matter how powerful the royal family was, After all, it wasn't his, And because your status in the royal family is too high, but too young, Therefore, it was not suitable to stay in the royal family for the rest of their lives, So the renaissance is waiting for you to come to your senses, And then he'll help you fight for what's yours, It could also be said that he had left behind an extremely powerful ally for the royal family, Whether you're rebuilding the Xuanyuan bloodline, or pick up President Wang's position, Or both, "He will help you. That fellow is only fifty years old now, and he still has at least several decades to live. However, he has already begun to set up things behind him. He has always seen things from afar. Xuanyuan, if you want to fight for something that belongs to you, based on my personal suggestions and expectations for rejuvenation, you must take the position of President Wang. If you take the position, hehe."
Ye Nianlun lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, his smile extremely complicated.
Lin Xuanyuan naturally knew the meaning behind this smile. The royal family would eventually return to the Divine Boat Empire. If he left the royal family and became the guardian of the Divine Boat Empire, then the significance to the royal family was self-evident.
Not to mention the imperial clan's current momentum, even if there was a plague within the imperial clan in the future, the leaders of the imperial clan would all die. As long as he, Lin Xuanyuan, was still alive, no one in the entire Dark World would dare to think of the imperial clan. Moreover, because of the existence of the imperial clan, Lin Xuanyuan's position in the empire and the Dark World would be absolutely stable.
It is truly long-term and closely interrelated.
If one of two interdependent things falls, the other is in danger.
And the most desperate thing was Lin Xuanyuan's age.
Twenty-three years old.
Even if he ascended to the throne two years later, he would only be twenty-five years old. Lin Xuanyuan, who had obtained the Balance Method, was clearly not at his peak. He still had tremendous room for improvement. It was possible for him to catch up with the Emperor's footsteps. Moreover, this time would not be too long ago.
If Lin Xuanyuan ascended to the throne, as long as nothing unexpected happened to him, his time as the guardian of the empire would be so long that all the enemies would despair.
Forty years? Fifty years?
Even if the Emperor was gone decades later, Lin Xuanyuan, who had caught up with the Emperor, was another invincible supreme being who supported the Imperial Clan. As long as humans did not experience rapid evolution, even if there were people who could reach the Emperor's level in the future, they would not be able to surpass him again. Lin Xuanyuan was still an invincible existence.
As long as Lin Xuanyuan chose to ascend to the throne, Lin Xuanyuan and the royal family would maintain their absolute strength and upward momentum for at least several decades to come.
Less lucky, Even if this momentum doesn't exist decades from now, Because at that time, Lin Xuanyuan's forces and the royal family's forces basically had enough resources. Especially the royal family. At that time, the development of the royal family for nearly a hundred years, coupled with the foundation left behind by the Wang family, was enough to completely stabilize the royal family's position. At that time, as long as the heir of the royal family was not a fool, the royal family would basically be out of the danger of decline.
"I'm thinking about it. I always feel that I'm different from the Emperor."
Lin Xuanyuan shook his head.
Ye Nianlun smiled, Without further ado, This kind of thing, As long as Lin Xuanyuan didn't refuse too resolutely, That meant that the final result was very likely to be very optimistic. After all, since the founding of the empire, the two Empire Guardians had come from the Kunlun bloodline. This was already a good story. Ye Chunqiu and Wang Tianxiong would undoubtedly be even more exciting if they added Lin Xuanyuan's name. Lin Xuanyuan didn't have much room to refuse.
Moreover, it seemed that if he did not ascend to the throne, the child from the Lin family in the southwest would be the most promising. Even for this reason, Lin Xuanyuan would definitely not be able to make the Lin family in the southwest happy.
"Uncle Ye, what do you think of this diary?"
Lin Xuanyuan remained silent for a while, then stopped thinking about his own problems. He looked at the diary in front of Ye Nianlun and asked thoughtfully.
...
! ! !
