Chapter 139: Countries are Built-Up by Virtue, Not Danger
“Ah…” Chu Weiwei stretched and got up from the bed.
“This feels good!” She stood in front of the makeup mirror in her pajamas and looked at her face.
Her small face was blushing and full of collagen without any flaws.
There was no need for makeup at all!
In other words, makeup was an insult to her!
It was an insult to her youthful skin and the collagen all over her face!
“Weiwei is smug again!” Li Anan, who had woken up almost the same time, walked behind Chu Weiwei and began to tease her.
“Captain!” Chu Weiwei said softly and then said, “Captain, did you notice that there’s a slight change in me today…”
She looked at herself in the mirror and felt that something was wrong.
Her skin was good in the past.
But it had never been like today!
Her small hands gently touched it. It was as smooth as milk, and the hair on her face could be seen clearly.
Her cherry-like lips were so thin that they looked extremely bright.
In the mirror, she did not look like a twenty-year-old girl. Instead, she looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
“Silly Weiwei!” Li Anan laughed. “That’s because you ate my nephew’s beef and crayfish!”
“My nephew’s delicacies have the miraculous effect of preserving one’s health and beauty!”
Li Anan said proudly, “Look! I’m twenty-seven years old this year, but if I walk outside, who would think that I’m twenty-seven years old?”
“I’ll always be eighteen years old!”
That was the thing that she was most proud of!
Chu Weiwei was extremely shocked when she heard this. “Could it be that young master Ling is also a supernatural being or a supernatural being of the psionic food category?!”
There was indeed such a supernatural being whose psionic energy was used for cooking and seasoning.
But…
Normally, the things made by such a supernatural being were only so-so!
Chu Weiwei had once eaten the food made by the lieutenant colonel of the psionic food category.
It could only enhance her psionic energy perception and increase her cultivation speed.
Moreover, the effect lasted only for half an hour.
“No!” Li Anan said with a smile, “I’ve already tested it in secret…”
“Little Ping An is just an ordinary person…”
“The delicacies he cooks, other than being especially delicious, can only beautify and nourish one’s health. They don’t have any other characteristics!”
“Oh…” Chu Weiwei nodded.
In this vast world, there were all kinds of strange things.
The delicacies that were meticulously cooked by many chefs did indeed have some miraculous effects.
For example, there was an ordinary old man in Fusang. By making sushi, he made the name of the G.o.d of sushi.
Even extraordinary beings rushed over and queued up to taste it.
“How is it?” Li Anan teased Chu Weiwei with a smile. “Are you tempted?”
“Weiwei…”
“If you can marry My Little Pingan, then you’ll be able to eat delicious food every day…”
“Maybe you’ll still be able to remain the appearance of a young girl in your forties or fifties…”
Chu Weiwei’s face blushed when she heard that. “Captain, you’re making fun of me again!”
After becoming a nun, the Chu family would not fall in love.
However…
What the Captain said was indeed very tempting!
After all, which young lady would not like to be a beauty?
At this moment, Li Anan’s phone rang.
She picked it up and frowned. Then, she answered the call. “Sir, this is Li Anan…”
“Yes…”
“Yes…”
“Understood!”
“I’ll complete the mission!”
She put down her phone and looked at Chu Weiwei with a strange expression. “It’s a call from the Blackguard’s external support department…”
“They said that the commander-in-chief has already signed the doc.u.ment and appointed me as the ‘Nanyang Special Affairs Observer’. I’ll lead a team to head to Nanyang to observe the disaster situation and investigate the possible movements of evil cultivators…”
“We’ll set off tomorrow…” Li Anan asked, “The commander-in-chief didn’t say anything about that when came here yesterday, did he?”
“What’s going on?!”
Chu Weiwei was also puzzled.
But…
She immediately smiled. “Isn’t that good?”
Li Anan also smiled. “It’s pretty good!”
Didn’t they join the Blackguard to safeguard the world’s peace and protect their countries and people?
Moreover, the countries in Nanyang had beautiful scenery and pleasant environments. It was a great tourist destination.
Who wouldn’t love a government-funded trip?
Therefore, both of them were happy.
… … ..
Ling Pingan carried the breakfast he bought and went upstairs. He heard laughter coming from his aunt’s bedroom.
He walked over, knocked on the door, and said, “Aunt, I bought breakfast!”
He was about to put the breakfast at the door and go downstairs.
However, the door was opened.
He saw that his aunt had already changed her clothes and was carrying her backpack.
“Little Pingan!” His aunt put her hands on her waist and spoke seriously, “The office just called and told us to go to various countries in Nanyang to partic.i.p.ate in the rescue of cultural relics affected by floods and typhoons!”
“So…” she said seriously, “You have to accompany us shopping today!”
Ling Pingan was stunned.
He felt as if a nuclear bomb had exploded in front of him.
Shopping…
The thing he was most afraid of still happened.
But…
He had no choice.
Could he not go?
He couldn’t!
Since he was young, he had already understood that if his aunt would throw tantrums if her requests were not fulfilled!
Women throwing tantrums was a skill that they were born with!
In any case, Ling Pingan was no match for her and could only obediently surrender every time.
After a few times, he also knew not to challenge his aunt’s patience.
Therefore, he could only sigh. “Aunty, can we just walk down one street…”
In the end, of course, that was impossible!
… … … ..
At the International Airport of the United Kingdom of Britannia.
The d.u.c.h.ess, who was wearing a princess dress and a laurel crown on her head, boarded her private plane under the escort of dozens of servants in holy clothing.
The plane had already been marked with a diplomatic symbol.
“Your Excellency, the d.u.c.h.ess!” The Amba.s.sador, who was wearing the traditional scholar-bureaucrat uniform of the Federal Empire, handed a doc.u.ment to her. “This is your entry notice and agreement…”
“Please sign it after you read it…”
The d.u.c.h.ess did not look at it and directly signed the doc.u.ment.
Although she was young, her wisdom was higher than many adults.
That was because she was Duke Rhein, the descendant of Van Helsing, and the owner of the Blood River Overlord’s contract.
She had to be smart.
“I understand the traditions of your country!” She said softly, “Please rest a.s.sured, I’m only going to study abroad to broaden my horizons in your country!”
“So, please don’t worry!” She turned around and looked at her servants, “Your country is the strongest country in the world, and it is a great country that builds a country with benevolence and righteousness!”
Her servants all laughed.
In the eyes of the upper echelons of the Land of Qin, the Federal Empire of Xia in the east was never a harmless little white rabbit.
Instead, it was an extremely vicious dragon that bared its fangs and brandished its claws!
That was especially true for the United Kingdom of Britannia!
More than half of the glory on the flag had been forcefully torn apart by the Eastern kingdom!
The empire that once had a sun that never set could only curl up on an isolated island.
All of this was thanks to the Eastern Empire!
And they had stepped on the corpse of the United Kingdom of Britannia and stood at the number one position in the world.
In the history books of the Britannia Kingdom, the Eastern Empire could be said to have had many bad deeds!
Less than 20 years after establishing their country, they had declared war on the pretext that the natives of the northern Yin and Shang were their brothers who had moved to a faraway place 2,000 years ago.
The majestic squadron crossed the ocean.
Sailboats covered the sky.
About 70,000 troops charged toward the northern Yin and Shang.
The Hundred Year War shattered the global ambitions of the people of Britannia.
Nanyang, Sindhu, Kunlun…
The former colonial countries were all independent.
The jewels on the Empress’ crown had all fallen!
Hence, the Britannia Empire became the United Kingdom of Britannia.
Hence, in the eyes of the Britannia people, the Federal Empire of Xia in the east was their mortal enemy.
It was also the overlord who had put them with no choice but to lower their head and follow its rules.
This generation’s Duke Rhein, Integral, grew up in such an educational environment.
Hence, although she was young, she already knew that the country that always talked about benevolence and righteousness was the root of all the problems today!
If not for their rise, today’s Britannia would still be the empire of the world, with the sun never setting!
Naturally, the amba.s.sador also understood their ridicule and hostility.
“Your Grace…” the amba.s.sador said gently and elegantly, “Our country is just like what you said, a country founded on benevolence, righteousness, and etiquette!”
“In the three hundred years, the Federal Empire has never taken the initiative to invade any country!”
“And it has never harmed the people of any country!”
“Our country has a motto: The country is built up by virtue, not danger.”
“Therefore, when benevolence is not shown, it is shown through attack and defense!”
After saying this, the amba.s.sador took the doc.u.ments and got off the plane.
He was confident that the people of the federal could reform this d.u.c.h.ess!
Looking at the amba.s.sador’s figure getting off the plane, the young d.u.c.h.ess’ delicate nose moved slightly.
“The country is built up in virtue, not danger?” She asked. “Is he saying that we didn’t do any good back then?”
The servants in holy clothes all bowed.
In the cabin of the plane, a river of blood flowed like a stream, slowly flowing.
Pairs of eyes laughed crazily.
“This generation’s Duke Rhein is the same as Van Helsing…” he said in a low voice. “Being troubled with such a stupid question!”
In his opinion, this was indeed a childish idea.
However…
He was once bound and controlled by such a naive human.
He had no choice but to sign an eternal contract and become a servant of the Van Helsing family for generations.
Thinking of the person who had died two hundred years ago, Alucard landed and stood behind his mistress.
He bowed slightly, “Master, your servant is at your command!”
… … … ..
The sun was setting in the west, and it was evening.
Ling Pingan was so tired that he just wanted to lie down lazily and never to move.
But unfortunately, it was impossible!
In front of him, the excited voice of his aunt came again, “Little Pingan! Come quickly! Come quickly! This cloth suits you very well!”
Ling Pingan moved his feet helplessly and walked over with a bitter smile.
Shopping was h.e.l.lish torture for him!
Fortunately, his aunt was going to get lost tomorrow!
She might not be back for at least three to five months!
“Let the day end quickly!” Ling Pingan prayed silently.
He had already been forced to try on more than 20 clothes, more than 30 pairs of pants, and at least 50 pairs of shoes today.
That was terrifying torture!
