The Wisdom of Struggle

Xisen shook his head as if he'd been electrocuted...

You know what!

It's true that some vampires in movies and TV shows have no hair on the top of their heads! But that's not realistic. Vampires aren't human, so how could they have hair loss?

Unless they're vampires from Great Britain—that place seems cursed! Their hairlines are receding terribly! Xisen protested, "Don't talk nonsense! We vampires are famous for producing handsome men and beautiful women!"

Li Yao: "Come on, try transforming! If you're so capable, then transform! After you transform, your face will look like you have terminal facial cancer. Don't you have any self-awareness?"

Xisen: "..."

That really hits home, boss!

Seeing each other again after three or four months apart still feels so exhilarating!

I feel like punching someone!

Xisen took a deep breath, thinking that arguing with this person was just a waste of time, so he quickly changed the subject. "Well, actually, I didn't come here purely because I was bored."

Li Yao raised an eyebrow and looked at Xisen.

Xisen flicked his fingers around, and a thin layer of dark power emerged from Xisen fingertips, forming a fragile barrier wall.

He had just tried to get closer when he felt the barrier he had constructed be torn apart...

Scratching? Why is this strange sensation arising in my mind?

Following his senses, Xisen looked over and saw a black cat that had appeared beside the awning at some point—the same cat that had been following the boss.

Meeting Xisen's gaze, Sauron cast a condescending look at him, like a tyrant looking down on a lowly commoner.

Xisen: "..."

This cat is so arrogant! Meanwhile, Sauron said to Li Yao in the Mind Link, "I just realized that something was blocking the connection between us, so I came to check it out. I didn't expect it to be such a weakling."

Li Yao looked at Xisen with pity in his eyes.

You probably don't even know that your fighting ability is less than that of a cat...

Watching Sauron sway away with cat-like steps, Li Yao couldn't help but ask in the Mind Link, "By the way, would you be interested in becoming a mentor after the Spiritual Research Academy starts?"

Sauron said arrogantly, "I won't do it unless I'm a professor!"

Actually, it wanted to be the principal...

Watching Sauron depart, Xisen dejectedly rebuilt the barrier wall and approached Li Yao, saying, "I am at the request of Lady Fladis to greet you. She said she is willing to establish friendship with you, the power behind you, and even the Wallfacers."

Fladis...

Li Yao immediately fell into deep thought.

After a long while, he looked at Xisen, Xisen immediately sat up straight and listened attentively. "Who is this Fladis?"

Xisen: "???"

He almost slipped off the soft chair!

"You don't know what someone's been thinking about for so long!" Xisen said dejectedly. "Lady Fladis is the leader of the Blood Oath, descended from the Impaler Duke, the current patriarch of the Dracula Family, the true owner of Transylvania, a descendant of the Blood Clan source, and the uncrowned queen of the Blood Clan world!"

Li Yao was stunned...

Such a long title? It reminded him of the recent meme about Daenerys Targaryen from Game of Thrones.

Daenerys lost her way in the wilderness and wanted to stay at a farmhouse, so she knocked on the door of a farmhouse.

An older woman called from behind the door, "Who is it?"

Daenerys, raising her beautiful chin with pride, declared, "Daenerys Stormborn, heir to the Iron Throne, rightful Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Protector of the Seven Kingdoms, Mother of Dragons, Khaleesi of the Great Plains, Queen of Meereen, the Unburnt, the Liberator—desire to stay!"

The older woman said, "We don't have that many rooms, you should leave."

Daenerys Targaryen:???

Therefore,

Are you just bored and coming up with so many titles to annoy your opponent to death when they're annoying their duel registration?

With this name, I can go out and call out names to my buddies in Inner Mongolia and have drinking contests!

Absolutely not weak!

Li Yao was practically bursting with complaints, but his face didn't betray his deep contemplation as he stared at the tea tray in front of him.

Meanwhile, Xisen stood by, watching intently, not daring to utter a sound!

He figured that the boss should know who it was this time! After sorting out his thoughts, Li Yao said, "There's no use talking to me about this. To be honest, I'm just a businessman. You should talk to the Wallfacers about this kind of thing."

After saying that, Li Yao took out his phone and pushed Big Sis Feng Li's WeChat card to Xisen: "This is the head of the Wallfacers's office in the provincial capital. She has a high rank in the Wallfacer Organization. You can contact her."

Xisen: "..."

Such a big matter can be discussed on WeChat?

That's fine too...

Since he was just passing on a message, he casually picked up his phone and texted Fladis: "Miss Fladis, could you send me a WeChat? I've got the contact information for the higher-ups at the Wallfacers, how about you two talk?"

Fladis quickly replied, "... Okay."

Very decisive and efficient!

After finishing this matter, Xisen said, "The world situation has been very turbulent recently, and the American Federation. Department of Homeland Defense and Counterattack Security is facing reorganization... Many previously weak financial groups have suddenly become powerful! I know that all of this is related to this!"

Xisen poked his feet with his finger.

Li Yao remained silent, Xisen continued, "It won't be long before the American Federation. Department of Homeland Defense and Counterattack Security announces a restructuring statement and a new foreign policy."

Li Yao nodded. "I understand."

Xisen stood up. "It is my honor to follow you. From now on, I will do my best whenever you need me!"

This is a declaration of loyalty.

Or perhaps the family behind Xisen foresaw a major event that might occur and sought a powerful backer in advance?

During the Romania events,

The Wallfacers, through a series of thrilling, high-wire maneuvers, directly forced the supernatural forces of the American Federation to reorganize! This power alone is enough to shake most neutral or hesitant organizations!

Then they moved closer to the Wallfacers!

well...

Thinking of this, Li Yao sighed again.

It can only be said that the strategy devised by the Wallfacers was truly "a hidden thread running deep and far-reaching"! He himself was merely used, thrown into Romania as bait. The task of resolving the Romania crisis should not have fallen on him, but on Nie Weiguo had been hiding by his side all along.

The Wallfacers never expected Li Yao to be so fierce.

Thinking about this, Li Yao felt a little smug.

But the thought of Madam Qian's scheme sent chills down his spine—by gradually restraining and dividing the power of the American Federation, Madam Qian herself would then come forward and, with the help of the majority, negotiate with Morgan.

In that situation,

The American Federation's global network is facing numerous problems and difficulties, but Madam Qian offered room for negotiation when she could have ruthlessly eliminated them!

Under pressure, Morgan and his team had no choice but to agree.

As the saying goes, what you can't get on the battlefield, you can't get at the negotiating table either.

Conversely, what can be obtained on the battlefield can be acquired through negotiation, thereby reducing losses. The American Federation is unreasonable; if it were even remotely reasonable, it would have been forced into a corner!

That was when Morgan had no other choice.

This series of actions demonstrates the wisdom of struggle!

But in reality? The Wallfacers are still at a significant disadvantage in terms of pure strength compared to the American Federation. It's just that Madam Qian's maneuvering was too skillful, allowing her to outmaneuver them with minimal cost! Li Yao is now sitting in the courtyard of the Shi Sui Pavilion, able to analyze everything very thoroughly, but until the dust settles, no one knows what the outcome will be.

That's pure hindsight.

But the more this is the case, the more one can appreciate the profoundness of the Wallfacers.

It is precisely this profoundness that gives so many people extraordinary confidence!

Li Yao waved his hand. "Alright, if there's nothing else, go back."

After Xisen left, Li Yao returned to the second floor to continue studying magic.

Until the afternoon,

The message from Maeve made Li Yao jump up from his armchair!

This is the second update. I really want to take this head off and wash it clean... Hope you all enjoy reading~
