Instantly, the Hall of Light responded, with a single sentence: 'The Hall of Light will dispatch an envoy to negotiate the matters in person.'
Upon seeing the Hall of Light's reply, Xu Weiwei nodded and said, "Let them come."
Xu Weiwei's thinking was simple. Although the envoy from the Hall of Light might be troublesome, it could at least buy Ye Cangtian a few days.
With this time, it was probably enough.
Having done this, Xu Weiwei got up, ready to take a walk in the small courtyard.
However, as soon as she stepped out of the room, she saw a familiar figure entering at the entrance. Xu Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes filled with extreme joy.
"You scoundrel, you're finally back from the dead!"
"If you hadn't come back, I would have been driven to death!"
Uh...
Ye Cangtian, who had just returned, looked at Xu Weiwei's resentful expression and his mouth twitched.
He had done his best.
After eliminating Chen Yi, he had hurriedly left Ghost City the next day and only returned to the capital today, with this place being his first stop.
Thinking so, Ye Cangtian forced a helpless smile and said, "Alright, aren't I back? Tell me about your grievances."
As Ye Cangtian spoke, he sat down on the recliner under the tree and picked up a cup of tea to drink.
You...
Seeing Ye Cangtian treating this place as his own home, Xu Weiwei was instantly speechless. She could only walk over and sit beside him, then she explained the matter of the Hall of Light.
"Oh?"
When the Hall of Light was mentioned, Ye Cangtian was slightly taken aback, then asked, "When I left, didn't I tell you to delay for a month? It hasn't even been a month yet!"
Hearing this, Xu Weiwei glared at Ye Cangtian and said, "Do you think the Hall of Light is your subordinate? They don't listen to any excuses, nor do they agree to delay the time. They even said they want to abide by contractual spirit..."
"Heh, any force in the world can talk about contractual spirit, but the Hall of Light is not qualified!"
Ye Cangtian showed a disdainful smile. He didn't need to judge what kind of existence the Hall of Light was.
Many international forces had already commented. In past collaborations, the Hall of Light had never fully fulfilled its promises.
In such a situation, for the Hall of Light to still talk about contractual spirit was simply laughable.
Xu Weiwei rolled her eyes at Ye Cangtian and said impatiently, "Alright, stop making sarcastic remarks. What should we do now?"
"Didn't you do very well?"
Ye Cangtian glanced at her, lit a cigarette, and continued, "Since they want to send an envoy, let them come."
Seeing that Ye Cangtian's handling of the matter was the same as hers, Xu Weiwei was relieved.
She had been worried that her lack of ability might have ruined Ye Cangtian's plan. But now, it seemed she had been overthinking.
Thinking so, Xu Weiwei changed the subject and said, "By the way, was this operation smooth?"
Hmm.
Ye Cangtian nodded and said, "Everything went very smoothly. How about the situation here in the capital?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Weiwei briefly explained the situation in the capital.
Seeing that no major events had occurred in the capital, Ye Cangtian chatted with Xu Weiwei for a couple of sentences and then returned home.
...
The night passed uneventfully.
As the sun rose again, the ringing of a telephone woke Ye Cangtian from his sleep.
Seeing that it was Xu Weiwei's number, Ye Cangtian wished he could go to the family compound and give her a good scolding.
He had finally managed to sleep soundly, only for it to be ruined.
"Hello? Auntie, what's going on?" Ye Cangtian finally answered the phone, asking impatiently.
"Sorry, I didn't want to disturb you so early."
"I received a telegram from the Hall of Light. The envoy from the Hall of Light will arrive in the capital around ten this morning."
"They are, to some extent, envoys, so someone needs to greet them, thus..."
Instantly, Ye Cangtian understood Xu Weiwei's meaning.
In the next moment, he directly interrupted her and said, "Wait, you're not going to make me, a Heaven-level expert, lead the reception, are you?"
"It is a bit inappropriate, but that is the Hall of Light after all. They are all insidious and cunning. I'm worried others can't handle them!"
"Besides, you caused this problem yourself. Shouldn't you handle it yourself?"
Listening to Xu Weiwei's words, Ye Cangtian was instantly speechless.
Other people's Heaven-level experts held high positions, lived lives of luxury, and enjoyed wealth and status.
But for himself, he couldn't even sleep in. Compared to them, he was truly unfortunate!
Although he thought so, Ye Cangtian still responded and then got up to tidy himself up.
...
Kyoto Airport.
Xu Shi'an and Shangguan Yun, along with about a dozen people dressed in matching suits, were waiting for the plane to land.
Not far behind them were a row of black sports cars.
Ye Cangtian was lying in the lead car at this moment, wearing a pair of black sunglasses, and muttering continuously.
"This Xu Weiwei has gone too far!"
"With Shangguan Yun and Xu Shi'an already here, the reception task is more than enough. Why did she have to call me?"
Ye Cangtian muttered, but his eyelids involuntarily drooped, and faint snores gradually arose.
After an unknown amount of time, a small private jet slowly landed at the airport.
Seeing this, Xu Shi'an and Shangguan Yun glanced at Ye Cangtian in the sports car. Seeing that he didn't react, they didn't say anything and went directly to meet them.
Anyway, it was just a formality. The two of them were enough.
Screech!
With a slight sound, the cabin door of the small passenger plane finally opened.
A short while later, an old man with white hair, but exceptionally upright, stood at the cabin door.
This person was none other than the head of the envoy from the Hall of Light, and also a worshiper of the Inner Hall of Light, Brandon.
He calmly swept his gaze downwards. At the black-clad men standing in two rows, holding bouquets, a hint of indignation flashed in his eyes.
The next moment, he forced a kind smile and slowly walked off the plane.
As Brandon descended from the plane, figures in red followed closely behind, a total of four people, all Cardinal Bishops.
Seeing Brandon force a stiff smile and descend from the plane.
Xu Shi'an and Shangguan Yun, without a word, went to greet him.
Xu Shi'an presented the prepared bouquet and said, "Welcome, Lord Brandon, to China..."
"Who are you?"
Brandon directly interrupted Xu Shi'an. He then glanced at Shangguan Yun beside him and said, "And who are you?"
Damn it!
With a single sentence, Xu Shi'an and Shangguan Yun's faces darkened.
Although they were not as famous as Ye Cangtian, their information was certainly available to many international forces.
Especially Xu Shi'an, who had gone to the Hall of Light City with Ye Cangtian before. How could the other party not recognize him?
In this situation, it was clearly an intentional provocation.
Thinking so, Shangguan Yun forced a smile and said, "This is Captain Xu Shi'an of the Dragon Team, and I am also Captain Shangguan Yun of the Dragon Team."
"What? China only sent you two to greet me, a worshiper of the Hall of Light?"
Brandon glanced at Shangguan Yun and questioned directly.
From the moment he stood at the cabin door, he had seen the reception team from China. It was nothing more than a dozen people and a few old cars.
This clearly showed disrespect towards him and the Hall of Light. It was simply unacceptable!
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yun's face immediately darkened. It was clear that the other party also looked down on them.
Thinking so, Shangguan Yun looked at him and said neither subserviently nor arrogantly, "I apologize, this is the order I received. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can contact your superiors and let them communicate!"
He paused, then continued, "Of course, if that's the case, the problem can be resolved, but you will probably have to fly again..."
