"Wang Qi! Random." The sisters' eyes froze in that moment. The grandeur of these elegant characters was awe-inspiring. In the eyes of these two sisters, who were also Martial Artists and not low in their realms, it was as if there was an aura of lethality that sent chills down their spines, making them subconsciously maintain their distance!
Of course, even though they felt the compelling aura within those characters, they still couldn't help but wonder. Could this be the so-called "hiding in plain sight"? Otherwise, why would such an outstanding woman, with a firm determination visible at first glance, live like an ordinary girl in a room that seemed tranquil and warm, yet was indeed cramped and constrained? And why had her name never appeared in any outside rumors?
One should know, if a tiny family like this could produce such a remarkable pair of siblings, or even if just one of them were put under the Federation's spotlight, they would undoubtedly attract enormous attention, garnering enough praise and accolades to be considered legendary. It might even create a sensation within the entire Federation, with countless parents wishing to learn their secret. Let's put aside this unfamiliar Wang Qi, whose whereabouts were currently unknown. And look at Wang Zhan, right in front of them. He seemed to be doing nothing but had started cooking noodles, yet he was fundamentally a powerful Martial Artist. Besides his Martial Artist identity, his other titles had already spread throughout the Federation, and he was revered as the Federation's young hero. Hadn't even the Federal Military Department personally stepped forward to solidify such an unparalleled title for him? What was this based on? It was based on Wang Zhan's own outstanding abilities, his unprecedented speed of advancement, and his powerful Talent that was like a dark horse.
Of course, compared to these jumbled thoughts, Ouyang Sheng, as the elder sister who still retained a trace of sanity, immediately recalled something else. So, she quickly grabbed her sister Ouyang Yue, who still wanted to continue exploring the room, and spoke to her with some apprehension, "Ouyang Yue, it's not good for us to keep poking around like this! If she finds out, what will we do then..."
Of course, whether it was good or bad wasn't really what the elder sister cared about. What she truly cared about was whether such behavior would affect her sister Ouyang Yue's relationship with Wang Zhan, or their relationship with Wang Zhan's family. After all, even if they couldn't become the legitimate wife Wang Zhan married, they were still his mistresses! If things got strained and they weren't even allowed in the door, what would they do then?
Ouyang Yue was slightly taken aback. Then, seemingly deep in thought, she said, "It seems so! That makes sense..."
Immediately, Ouyang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, there was something she hadn't said: a person's handwriting never lies. In short, this Wang Qi was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
However, Ouyang Sheng was immediately and completely stunned. Ouyang Yue, right in front of Ouyang Sheng, daringly stretched her head out the door like a curious Little Rabbit and asked Wang Zhan, who was busy cooking in the kitchen, "Wang Zhan, who is Wang Qi? We're looking around her room. If she finds out, can she beat us?"
BANG! The pan in Wang Zhan's hand nearly dropped. Luckily, he reacted promptly and caught it just before it hit the ground, preventing it from shattering.
Seeing this reaction, Ouyang Yue didn't need to ask further. She cautiously said to her sister, "It seems Wang Zhan can't beat her either. Shall we leave?"
Ouyang Sheng almost rolled her eyes. My dear young lady, is this how you do things? Your fox's tail can no longer be hidden! Of course, although Ouyang Sheng found Ouyang Yue's actions a bit strange, she had no choice but to nod. After all, women who fell into the river of love were all numb, their intellect forcibly lowered by the river of fate! Besides, Ouyang Yue had already done it. Even if Ouyang Sheng didn't agree, what could be done?
But before they could obediently walk out, feigning innocence, Wang Zhan, over there, already had no interest in dealing with them. He merely smiled faintly and answered a phone call, "...Why are you so free to call me today?"
While answering the call, Wang Zhan even made a hushing gesture to the two sisters. The two sisters understood at once. Perhaps before these two mistresses, or rather, numbers three and four, could even formally make their move, the "main wife" is already marking her territory.
Hmph, what a scumbag!
However, what they didn't know was that the person calling Wan Zhan at this moment was not, in fact, Wang Zhan's so-called "main wife." It was someone like them, one of Wang Zhan's mistresses. Or, to be more precise, she was the trailblazing originator of being Wang Zhan's mistress, and also one of Wan Zhan's closest female confidantes—Qin Ying! In other words, even if Ouyang Sheng and Ouyang Yue willingly degraded themselves, debased to the point where they unashamedly called themselves mistresses, in Wang Zhan's circle, they might not even rank as number four, five, or six.
However, what they didn't know was that, regardless of whether it was the caller or the receiver, just an instant later, the two people in the conversation had already lost any mood to talk about romance. Because when Wang Zhan received this call from the heart of the Federation and heard Qin Ying's cries, he was completely stunned. He seemed lost and numb, as though his soul had left his body. For a moment, he didn't react at all. And so, with a hint of bewilderment and a calmness that belied his yet-unprocessed thoughts, Wang Zhan dazedly asked Qin Ying again, "What were you just saying?"
At this moment, Qin Ying, who was at the very heart of the Federation, within the center of power ruling the entire Earth Federation, finally lost control of her emotions after Wang Zhan's second inquiry. She suddenly squatted on the ground, her head buried deeply between her knees, a sound escaping her that was half-cry, half-laugh. With an inescapable sorrow and the helplessness of knowing the outcome but being powerless to change it, she cried out to Wang Zhan, "Wang Zhan! Quan State City... is going to be gone!... Starting today, Quan State City... might be gone!!!"
Quan State City was going to be gone!!! Gone!! Gone!...
BOOM! His mind was thrown into turmoil. Then, in that instant, Wang Zhan finally came to his senses. It turned out it wasn't that he couldn't hear what Qin Ying was saying. It was because he simply didn't dare believe this fact. So much so that when Qin Ying confirmed the fact again, and Wang Zhan finally comprehended it, he broke out in a cold sweat, the hairs on his body standing on end.
Even though spring had gradually given way to the heat of summer, he still felt cold. An immense cold. A coldness that seemed to penetrate his bones and pierce his heart. Yet, despite this bone-chilling cold, he was still breathing, and a drop of sweat silently rolled down his forehead—his body's instinctual reaction.
However... Quan State City was going to be gone?
That was a city with strength comparable to a Martial King! Even if it was in a remote location and seemed to have nothing noteworthy on the surface, long before Wan Zhan had embarked on his series of actions, Wei Daoming, the mastermind who issued his orders, had already told him the whole truth! Quan State wasn't as simple as it appeared on the surface; it was a city with a long history. At some point, it had become the true leader in that region, shouldering the banner of duty to protect the Human Race! Therefore, there were many old relics there, many remnants from those ages of war and conflict. Moreover, some ancient figures were hidden directly in the Quan State Underground City, never seen, but their existence was undeniable! For this reason, even though Wang Zhan had caused quite a stir in the Quan State Underground City, appearing haughty and fearless, in reality, Wang Zhan had never done anything truly outrageous. Apart from killing a Snakehead from the Original Organization and recruiting a young follower, perhaps the only other thing was this pair of young, beautiful, and similarly figured sisters before him, for whom Wang Zhan deserved the Five Thunder Strikes!
Yet, the fact now facing Wang Zhan was this: Quan State City, a place of crouching tigers and hidden dragons, a city far stronger than the entire Ming State Underground City combined—was it going to simply vanish, to be severed from the Federation, just from Qin Ying's words?
In an instant, Wang Zhan's hand holding the phone began to tremble slightly. Fortunately, facing the curious and somewhat solemn gazes of the two sisters, Wang Zhan quickly composed himself, not daring to reveal a hint of his feelings. He just smiled faintly and quickly wrote a note saying, "You two carry on and get something to eat. I'm going downstairs to make a call."
The two sisters understood. However, they couldn't hear the voice on the phone because as soon as Qin Ying's call had come through, Wang Zhan had used his mental energy to block any possibility of being overheard. But little did they know that once Wan Zhan truly understood the implications of this call and its enormous weight for the entire Federation…
