Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 454 What Does It Mean to Be Powerful?
Because of Qing Cang's voice, everyone present looked at him. He wasn't flustered, but looked at Hu Tao and said,
"General, please protect me, lest I be silenced before I finish speaking!"
"Okay! I guarantee that no one here will dare to touch you!"
Hu Tao said immediately without any hesitation. After all, he was his soldier, and he had felt something was wrong before. Of course, he had to support his own soldier at this time!
As soon as Hu Tao finished speaking, two of the officers behind him immediately walked towards Qing Cang, removed their weapons, and watched the others warily.
Hu Tao's adjutant even took out one of the guns that Li Chenzhou had just given him. After confirming that it was the piercing gun, he held it in his hand and looked at Qing Cang.
"General Hu, what do you mean? Qing Cang is a descendant of our Liu family's servants. According to the laws of the Alliance, he is considered a member of our Liu family!"
When he heard Qing Cang speak, Liu Xialai felt that something was wrong. He quickly gave Liu Xiawei a wink. Liu Xiawei was about to step forward to control Qing Cang, but found that the two officers had already arrived beside Qing Cang and protected him on the left and right. He immediately looked at Hu Tao and asked.
"Before his identity is confirmed, he is still my soldier! Even if it is confirmed that he is indeed a descendant of your family's servants, that will have to wait until you cancel his military registration. Before that, no one can touch my soldier!"
Hu Tao stared at Liu Xiawei and said,
"Besides, he was the one who stood up and said what happened just now. Now he has something to say, why are you stopping him? Is there really something your Liu family is hiding from all of us?"
"How is that possible?"
Liu Xiawei immediately retorted, but Liu Xialai glared at him fiercely. The reaction was too intense, making him look a little guilty.
As soon as Liu Xiawei spoke, he also realized that something was wrong, but what was said was said, and he couldn't take it back. He had no choice but to look at Liu Xialai and dared not speak again.
"General Hu, are you still going to protect someone like Qing Cang who dares to betray the military for his family? This simply shows the importance of his family in his mind. As long as it is for his family, he may dare to betray anyone!"
Liu Xialai said, although his words were spoken to Hu Tao, his eyes were on Qing Cang, and he deliberately emphasized the word "family" in his tone and mentioned it repeatedly.
"Hahahaha! Lord Liu! You don't have to remind me that my family is controlled by you! I remember that very clearly!"
Before Hu Tao could answer, Qing Cang laughed loudly:
"And I also know that, under normal circumstances, even if I say so, as long as you don't admit it, I have no way to do anything, because neither I nor the military has the right to search your house, right?"
"Humph!"
Liu Xialai did not answer directly, but snorted coldly.
"Everyone, what I said before was taught to me by the Liu family. They arrested my family and told me that I had to say what they told me to say, otherwise, they would kill all my family members!
So, what I just said was what the Liu family asked me to say. As for the real origins of Li Chenzhou and his brother, that is what I reported to the higher-ups the earliest. I can guarantee this with my personality!"
Qing Cang ignored Liu Xialai and said loudly:
"In addition, regarding the Liu family, I also have some information to report. This is the information we have been tracking for more than ten years, but before that, I have to care about my family and rescue them!"
Saying that, Qing Cang looked at the giant of the Avengers Alliance and said with a smile:
"Lord Dugu, I know that the Avengers Alliance has always maintained neutrality and will not help any forces, so even if my family is arrested by the Liu family, it is impossible to ask you to rescue them, right?"
"Yes."
Dugu Tianfeng, the giant of the Avengers Alliance, nodded and hummed softly.
"Hahahaha! So, do you regret what you said just now?"
Liu Buzhu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly laughed:
"It's okay, maybe your family is just missing. We will help you find them, don't worry. By the way, what are you going to say next? I want to hear it!"
"What I am going to say next is not for you to hear!"
Qing Cang looked at Liu Buzhu and smiled, seemingly not taking the safety of his family to heart. He turned his head to look at Dugu Tianfeng:
"Lord Dugu, I didn't have the qualifications to ask for your help before, but now, I think I should be able to ask our alliance for help!"
"Our alliance?"
Hearing this, Dugu Tianfeng, who had always been cold and icy, was stunned. Then, he saw Qing Cang's figure suddenly become illusory. Then, there were actually twelve Qing Cangs in the scene.
"Lord, after using the evolution potion of Li Chenzhou and his brother, I have become an Awakened. According to the iron law of the Alliance, I am now a member of the Avengers Alliance, right?"
The twelve Qing Cangs spoke to Dugu Tianfeng at the same time, but they did not introduce what their talent ability was. This was an unwritten rule. Basically, as long as the Awakened could prove that they were Awakened, it was enough.
Looking at Qing Cang, a smile suddenly appeared on Dugu Tianfeng's face. He nodded lightly and said:
"That's right! Boy, you are very good! Welcome to join the Avengers Alliance!"
After speaking, Dugu Tianfeng immediately turned his head to look at Liu Xialai and said:
"Where is his family? Release them immediately. I want to see them within half an hour, safe and sound!"
"..."
Liu Xialai stared blankly at the dozen or so Qing Cangs, his mind not reacting for a moment. He didn't expect that Qing Cang was actually an Awakened?
If that was the case, why didn't he use his talent ability or reveal that he was already an Awakened? If that was the case, he would never have done this, at least he would have changed his approach.
No one dared to do anything to the Awakened in front of Dugu Tianfeng, because everyone knew that although Dugu Tianfeng was arrogant and did not give anyone a good look, he was quite protective of his own.
Whoever dared to do anything to the Awakened under his command, he would definitely not let it go. Fortunately, the Awakened group itself had a transcendent status, and no one was willing to provoke them.
But now, this Qing Cang has actually become an Awakened? That was troublesome.
"Mr. Dugu! You can't just listen to this kid's side of the story. He has no evidence to prove that we kidnapped his family!"
Liu Xialai looked at Dugu Tianfeng carefully and said:
"We don't know where his family is, so... you see..."
"Humph! Evidence? When have I, Dugu Tianfeng, ever needed evidence to do things?"
Dugu Tianfeng snorted coldly:
"I have already said my request before. If I don't see anyone when the time comes, or if anything happens to them, you will bear the consequences. Don't say I didn't remind you!"
After speaking, Dugu Tianfeng looked at Qing Cang, nodded to him lightly, and then just stood there and closed his eyes to rest...
