The cold light was intense, and the malice contained within it was completely unmasked!
Bai stared at Fran, as if he were looking at a delicious cake...
Faced with such a gaze, Fran suddenly chuckled lightly, then slowly closed his eyes.
"I truly don't know."
"Do you know? What you say doesn't count..."
At this moment, Bai seemed to have calmed down. He looked at Fran and took a deep breath.
"Old man, actually, I admire you, but unfortunately, you are on the side destined for failure."
Knowing that this calamity was inevitable, Fran only let out a trace of a mocking smile. He did not respond directly to Bai's words, but the expression on his face described the true thoughts deep within Fran's heart.
'You think too highly of yourself!'
In the next moment, Fran felt a tremendous force pierce into his chest, accompanied by a violent surge of thunder, which almost instantly turned his internal organs to charcoal.
After easily dealing with Fran, Bai finally released Fran's corpse, and a moment later, the complete, crimson-eyed Fran reappeared beside Bai.
"Where is Wen Yu?"
"I don’t know."
Transformed into a blood slave, Fran still retained his answer—evidence showed that Fran truly did not know.
Upon hearing this, Bai simply sighed.
"What about the others, like Gul, Wei Tian, and the rest!"
"I don’t know... Two days before you came, Lin Haifeng sent me a message saying he wanted to take me away, but I thought that since I had little time left, I would rather die in Beijing."
"Oh, and thank you for helping me fulfill my wish."
As a blood slave, Fran naturally couldn't mock Bai, but saying these words in such a calm tone still left Bai feeling unsettled.
Until the frustration subsided a bit, Bai asked again.
"Lin Haifeng? Is he still alive?"
"Still alive, just in another form..."
At this point, Bai began rubbing his chin, and after a moment, he spoke again.
"Tell me about the grand plan Lin Haifeng set up to turn the tables..."
However, this time, Fran suddenly fell silent. After a moment, he finally spoke.
"I'm sorry, I don't know!"
"You don’t know?"
Finally, Bai was surprised. He stepped forward, circled around Fran a couple of times, and then reached out to pat Fran's head. Eventually, Bai took two steps back and slowly shook his head.
"Your soul is missing a piece..."
"That's right."
"Who did it?"
"Wen Yu… I asked Wen Yu to do it, to avoid revealing the secrets I know."
Bai fell silent again and waved his hand to remove the effects of the river of death. Until Fran vanished without a trace, Bai finally sat down in the commander's position, rubbing his forehead. After a moment, he picked up the phone beside him.
...
For Beijing, the events that had occurred recently were quite numerous...
First, the former commander, Fang Yujie, was exposed as an impersonator, and the lord Wen Yu took action, pushing Fang Yujie off the throne—of course, the means were relatively harsh.
However, before Beijing could settle down, the commander-in-chief of Beijing was unexpectedly replaced—with a guy named Bai...
Who knows where this Bai came from.
But as the saying goes, strange things are nothing strange; regarding the replacement of the commander-in-chief, most people just pretended not to see it. After all, ordinary people couldn’t access high-level matters, and what they cared about was only their daily living expenses...
No one cared about their lives...
And they, too, didn't care about the lofty individuals and what happened to them.
But for Li Quan'an, things were not that simple...
The tragedy of being a fence-sitter lies in one point—that is, no one cares.
No one regarded Li Quan'an as a true insider, so naturally, no one cared about his position or camp.
He was like a rag, used when needed and tossed aside when not, forgotten...
But how to put it, small characters always have their own way of living, and Li Quan'an's way of life was quite flexible.
He once again chose to "abandon the dark and seek the light"...
Yes, at the very moment Bai killed Fran, Li Quan'an couldn't wait to offer his knees in submission, and for this guy, although Bai's perception wasn't great, a local tyrant who was already there was too convenient to pass up.
