Urban Invincible Overlord

Li Xuanyu's eyes sparkled, her heart filled with extreme excitement.

She never imagined that Qin Yanyang would suddenly agree to help her restore her country, and it even seemed like he would spare no effort.

Yang Fei, listening from the side, was secretly alarmed. He couldn't help but remind, "Wife, isn't it a bit too soon for this?"

The last time Xuanyu had asked Qin Yanyang's help to restore her country, Qin Yanyang refused. Yang Fei neither comforted Xuanyu nor spoke on her behalf, primarily because he agreed with Qin Yanyang's viewpoint.

Even if the Divine Continent helps these Korean tycoons restore their country, given Korea's current strength, they can't defend it. Instead, once restored, those guys will be manipulated in secret by the Penglai Realm's powerhouses, causing significant loss to the Divine Continent.

In Yang Fei's plan, he would support Xuanyu by nurturing some powerhouses once his strength was sufficient, enabling those powerhouses to help her guard Korea.

But now Qin Yanyang was offering to help Xuanyu restore her country without hesitation, which puzzled Yang Fei.

After a brief moment of excitement, Xuanyu calmed down.

Yang Fei's words also made her realize that something seemed off.

Qin Yanyang, with his great ambition and vision, refused her before because he considered a lot of subsequent issues and felt the timing wasn't ripe.

How could he suddenly agree to help with the restoration so quickly now?

Something was wrong.

She looked at Qin Yanyang and said, "Isn't it too soon?"

Qin Yanyang chuckled faintly, stared at Li Xuanyu with sarcasm, and said, "Didn't you say I wouldn't help you? Now I'm helping, but you're saying it's too soon?"

Li Xuanyu blushed and said, "I later realized that indeed, even if you help us restore our country now, with the current strength of our Korean conglomerate, once the Penglai Realm launches a dark war, we won't be able to hold on, and we'll instead become their puppets."

Qin Yanyang snorted, "I thought you couldn't even see that. If so, you have no qualifications to succeed as the future president of Korea."

Li Xuanyu retorted, "Qin Yanyang, I admit you're excellent, but I'm not much inferior to you. The only difference between us is that you have a husband who spares no effort to support you. If this man helped me as he helps you, I wouldn't be inferior either."

Yang Fei felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

How did this come back to me?

He cautiously glanced at Qin Yanyang, but Qin Yanyang just smiled brightly, lovingly wrapping her arm around his, and said to Li Xuanyu, "Yes, that's fate. Finding such a good husband is also a kind of skill, right? As far as I know, you've known my husband for many years longer than me, but I'm the one who married him. Doesn't that say something?"

Li Xuanyu was at a loss for words under this attack.

Both angry and resentful.

Indeed, she knew Yang Fei earlier than both Qin Yanyang and Tong Yunshu, but what good did that do?

Back then, she had given him countless hints, but that blockhead just didn't take the hint, leading to Qin Yanyang mocking her like this now.

She looked at Yang Fei with resentment, making his heart race wildly, feeling incapable of withstanding her gaze and even feeling a bit sorry for her.

Sister Xuanyu had cared for him with meticulous attention back then. He understood her feelings to some extent but ultimately let her down.

Qin Yanyang also noticed Li Xuanyu's resentful look at her husband and felt a bit displeased inside. Coldly, she said, "I'll ask you just once, do you want to restore your country?"

With anger and also realizing Qin Yanyang's sudden offer to restore her country was suspicious, Li Xuanyu met her head-on, "I want to restore my country, but not now. Like you said last time, even if we restore it now, we can't defend it. It would be very dangerous and not worthwhile." This chapter is from the collection at M-VL-EM-PYR.

Qin Yanyang didn't expect her to say that, and a flicker of anger passed through her eyes. "Fine, you said it yourself. Don't come begging me for help later."

Li Xuanyu felt a bit scared when she saw Qin Yanyang's anger.

If Yang Fei wasn't so obedient to his wife and could spare no effort to help her, she wouldn't care about offending Qin Yanyang. But now, Yang Fei listens to his wife and doesn't dare help her. If she thoroughly offends Qin Yanyang, and Qin Yanyang stops supplying genetic liquid medicine to Korea, then Korea really has no hope of restoration.

She could only suppress her anger and say to Qin Yanyang, "Why did you suddenly propose to help us restore our country? This process will cause you significant losses. But if we can't hold on and become puppets of the Penglai Realm, won't you be sacrificing in vain?"

Qin Yanyang said, "I'll arrange for people to help you defend."

Li Xuanyu angrily exclaimed, "In that case, how is that different from us being Penglai Realm's puppets?"

Qin Yanyang gazed into her eyes and said faintly, "Given the current global situation, do you really think small countries like yours have true independence and autonomy? Without relying on superpowers, can you really stand firm? Compared to being puppets of the Penglai Realm, I believe the centuries-old credibility of the Divine Continent is more trustworthy for small countries like yours. At the very least, the Divine Continent won't push things to the extreme. It will give you a way out, leaving you with enough freedom and dignity. Under the enslavement of Penglai Realm and Heaven, Korea has no true dignity."

Li Xuanyu remained silent.

As a member of the Republic of Korea, though a woman, she also possessed national pride and integrity.

Yet now, she couldn't deny that Qin Yanyang spoke the truth.

The times have changed.

The world situation has altered; strong countries rise, competing globally, and small countries have no diplomacy, no dignity.

To align with a strong country, preserve cultural flames, and maintain the national name without change or cessation is already a remarkable achievement for a small country.

She quickly realized this, took a deep breath, and looking at Qin Yanyang said, "As far as I know, you Divine Continent also have your hands full; it's not too much to say you're barely sustaining yourselves. Where would you find enough powerhouses to help us defend Korea?"

Qin Yanyang's eyes flashed with a cold light, fixing on Li Xuanyu, "What makes you say we're barely sustaining ourselves?"

Li Xuanyu snorted, "After the Hidden Sect emerged into the world, they've been unable to coexist harmoniously with your Divine Continent officialdom. Now various Hidden Sect influences are moving overseas. Doesn't that show you're barely sustaining yourselves?"

Qin Yanyang felt some annoyance in her heart.

But her expression remained unchanged, and she said coolly, "Indeed, the estrangement with Hidden Sect makes the Divine Continent seem weaker, but we have plenty of Divine Travel Realm powerhouses, and we have the Yunwu Mountain Base to cultivate more and more powerhouses. The future of the Divine Continent is globally renowned."

"That's the future. We're talking about now. Now, you want to help us restore our country and provide enough strong men to guard our land. Where will those powerhouses come from?"

Qin Yanyang, upon hearing this, smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about that. I'll make the arrangements."

Li Xuanyu furrowed her brows slightly, unable to fathom where Qin Yanyang's confidence came from, and said, "Of course I need to worry. Otherwise, after restoration, our Korean conglomerate's leadership would be constantly threatened with decapitation and puppeting by the Penglai Realm. In such a case, we might as well not restore, and be carefree wealthy people all our lives."

Yang Fei was also curious about how Qin Yanyang would arrange things and said to her, "Yes, darling, without enough powerhouses to station, wouldn't we be wasting our efforts?"

Qin Yanyang said, "The Hidden Sect's Zhang Family and Ji Family."
