After hearing what Obisco said, Xiao Chen was a little speechless. Was it really because of him?
"No, as long as you don't provoke me, I will definitely not kill the masters of the Holy See."
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette and said.
"Tell them about my attitude. I am a man of my words."
"I tell them? Am I looking for death?"
Obisco was helpless.
"I said, wouldn't our relationship be exposed? And... are you trustworthy?"
"What's the meaning?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. Was this guy saying that he was not trustworthy?
"Also, be careful with your words. Our relationship...what kind of relationship is that? This could easily lead to misunderstandings."
"Okay, the higher-ups are very wary of you anyway, so even if they send someone over, they will be very low-key..."
Obisco said.
"At least, it won't draw your attention."
"Aren't you temporarily in charge of the affairs of the Asian region? What are they going to do about my father-in-law's matter? Is there any result?"
Xiao Chen didn't bother about whether to start a war or not. Anyway, whether it started or not, and who killed whom, it had nothing to do with him.
"There will be no action against 'Su' for the time being."
Obisco said solemnly.
"If nothing else, you alone are enough to make them wary... If they want to target Su, they must first consider how you will react."
"What's my reaction? Ha, if anyone dares to touch my family, I will kill his entire family."
Xiao Chen sneered.
“That’s my reaction and that’s my attitude.”
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Su Shiming looked at him. Although he didn't know what Obisco said, he could basically guess it from Xiao Chen's words.
The word "family" made him feel warm at heart. Although his son was gone, as the saying goes, "a son-in-law is half a son". Both of his daughters followed him, so they also considered him as two sons-in-law.
A son-in-law is half a son, and those two sons-in-law... Xiao Chen can also be considered his own son.
Thinking of this, Su Shiming shook his head slightly and sighed in his heart. After all, it was Yun Fei's own choice, and it was all over.
"I know... If the higher-ups have any ideas, I will stop them if I can! Besides, I will notify you as well."
Obisco said seriously.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. After some things that happened, he felt that Obisco didn't have the courage to play any tricks anymore.
"As for the war with Buddhism, it should have broken out after you left."
Obisco said again.
"This is the focus of the Holy See in the future. They urgently need a battle to show the strength of the Holy See... Otherwise, everyone will treat the Holy See as a soft persimmon and want to pinch it."
"hehe."
Xiao Chen smiled, and admittedly, he felt a little proud.
Looking around the world, there shouldn't be many individuals who can make the Holy See of Light so fearful, right?
Now, he is one!
As for the Vatican's "kill order" at the time, it has now become a joke and no one dares to mention it.
"Okay, you can send your troops and generals, as long as you don't provoke me, I will pretend that I know nothing."
Xiao Chen thought about it and began to understand the meaning of Obisco's call.
Now that this guy is in charge of the Asian region, he must be responsible for the war against the Siamese Buddhists.
He made this call not only for personal reasons, but also to find out his attitude.
"good."
Obisco breathed a sigh of relief. He got the attitude he wanted, so he dared to do it boldly.
Otherwise... if every one he sends dies, that's not justifiable.
After the two chatted for a few more sentences, Xiao Chen hung up the phone.
"What's going on? The Holy See of Light wants to declare war on Siamese Buddhism?"
Su Shiming asked when he saw Xiao Chen finished the call.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and briefly explained what Obisco had said on the phone.
After listening to what Xiao Chen said, Su Shiming looked strange, with some emotion: "You kid, now you are really hard... You should be proud enough to make the Holy See of Light so afraid."
"Hey, father-in-law, that's not right. I was hard before, not just now..."
Xiao Chen said.
"Um?"
Su Shiming was stunned, and then speechless. This kid... took him to the highway?
"By the way, Obisco also said that there will be no further action against you. I guess they have given up for now."
Xiao Chen said again.
"Um."
Su Shiming didn't care about this and nodded.
"The Holy See of Light had no choice but to go to war with Siamese Buddhism at this time... The Holy See of Light has not had an easy time recently."
"I think the Church of Light is pretty awesome. Facing the Church of Darkness and other forces, they were still able to spare some manpower to fight against the Siamese Buddhist sect."
Xiao Chen chuckled.
"Fighting on multiple fronts shows how powerful they are."
"They need a victory to defend their dignity, and the Siamese Buddhists... are just that."
Su Shiming said slowly.
"But it's a good thing for us."
"Hmm? Good news? Father-in-law, what do you mean by that?"
Xiao Chen was startled and asked.
"At least, the Siamese Buddhists don't have the energy to attack the power of life."
Su Shiming smiled.
"The royal family has a close relationship with Buddhism. If the Holy See declares war, the royal family will naturally not sit idly by... Even if they can't be said to share weal and woe, it's almost the same! If the Holy See wins, the royal family won't have an easy time either."
"Too."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"You said before that apart from the royal family and Buddhism, other forces are not a concern."
"Well, the most important thing is...if the royal family and the Buddhist sect don't have their eyes on you, other forces will probably be a little wary and won't dare to take action easily."
Su Shiming paused when he said this.
"The Siamese Buddhists should be looking for you soon."
"Looking for me?"
Xiao Chen was stunned again.
"Why are you looking for me? Didn't you say they wouldn't target me anymore?"
"Looking for your cooperation."
Su Shiming looked at Xiao Chen and said.
"Now that the Siamese Buddhist sect knows you well enough, they naturally know how powerful you are... Under the current circumstances, they will definitely unite all the powerful people they can to fight against the Holy See of Light! And you happen to be a very suitable ally."
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in this cooperation."
Xiao Chen curled his lips.
"They cooperated with the Holy See to deal with us before, and now they want to cooperate with me to deal with the Holy See? How can this be possible?"
"Even if they know that it's unlikely that you will agree, they will still come... I think once the Holy See declares war, they will come soon."
Su Shiming chuckled.
"In fact, there is nothing wrong with cooperation. There is no such thing as eternal enemies. As long as they offer enough benefits, right?"
"Sufficient benefits? I have a big appetite, and I don't think they can offer me enough benefits."
Xiao Chen shook his head. He had a bad impression of Siamese Buddhism.
"Even if you don't cooperate, this is still a good opportunity for you."
Su Shiming said again.
"Why do you think other forces would dare to target you? Although you are very strong in the secret realm, you are still a little unfamiliar to them, and they don't really know you! But if the Buddhist sect comes to seek cooperation, it will be different! At that time, if some news is released, such as that you make the Church afraid, or that you killed a giant, etc., there will probably be even fewer people who dare to target you!"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen's eyes lit up slightly. This was a good idea.
If you can avoid fighting, then don’t fight. Fighting and killing are not as interesting as taking an imperial bath.
It would be great if it could scare the many Siamese forces away from fighting.
"Father-in-law, haven't you decided what you want to do in the future?"
Xiao Chen looked at Su Shiming and suddenly said.
"Um?"
Su Shiming was stunned. Why were they talking about this again?
"Why don't you stay by my side and be my military advisor?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"With you here, I save a lot of trouble..."
"Let me be your military advisor?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Su Shiming was stunned again, and then he laughed.
"How powerful are you? Do you still need me to be your military advisor?"
"Longmen is already very powerful now, and will become even more powerful in the future..."
Xiao Chen said.
"Forget it. I'm not that interested in these things. I'm a simple person and I prefer to do research..."
Su Shiming shook his head and still refused.
"I'm not good at conspiracy and trickery."
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. He wanted to ask if you had any misunderstanding about the word "simple"?
Are you simple?
If you are simple, then old demon Zhao will be pure!
"Isn't Patriarch Xiao in Longmen? It's enough to have him here."
Su Shiming said again.
"Old Xiao? Haha."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"He is indeed useful, but at his age, I feel a little embarrassed for him to continue to work like a slave for me."
“…”
Su Shiming was speechless. Your ancestor is embarrassed, but how can you feel embarrassed about me?
"Well, that's not what I meant."
Xiao Chen coughed dryly.
"Father-in-law, we are a powerful alliance. You use your brain and I use my strength... Just like this time, we worked together perfectly."
"Don't think of hitting on me."
Su Shiming waved his hand.
"Let's talk about what to do next."
"Father-in-law, how long do you think it will take to get scientific research results with your power?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"He doesn't need to get it. As long as he becomes a member of the royal family and has access to it, it will be fine... However, it's not that easy now."
Su Shiming shook his head.
"I used to hide in the dark, and few people knew about my cooperation with Maza. But now we are in the open, and our relationship with Lunwei has been exposed. The royal family will not be careless."
"So, this line is unlikely to be effective in a short period of time."
Xiao Chen took out a cigarette and gave one to his father-in-law.
"It's better to go through Master Shanmu than through Lunwei... We don't need to beat around the bush. It belongs to us anyway, so let them hand over a copy! If they don't, won't the Vatican attack Buddhism? When the time comes, don't blame us for taking action."
Listening to Xiao Chen's words, Su Shiming's eyes lit up slightly, but he looked at Xiao Chen: "Such a simple and crude way is uncivilized..."
"It's okay. Just continue to be polite. I'm used to being rough anyway. Leave the rough stuff to me."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
“Haha, okay!”
Su Shiming smiled with satisfaction and nodded.
