Chapter 466 Past Events

"This is the spiritual tea I brought from the Immortal Cultivation Area. It tastes quite good."

As Gu Yeming spoke, he spread out his palms as if performing magic.

In an instant, a cup of spiritual tea emitting curling hot steam appeared steadily on the table next to the bed.

"Cultivating Immortality..." Upon hearing this, Sandrina's tone was full of emotion and a bit of disbelief, and he murmured:

"I thought this thing only existed in storybooks, but it actually exists."

After that, he slowly raised his trembling left hand, held the cup with all his strength, and took a sip.

"The tea is delicious. Thank you for your generosity."

He carefully placed the spiritual tea back on the table, turned his head, and asked:

"Don't you know all my information? Then let me test you. What was the situation when I replaced Lawrence?"

Gu Yeming didn't say anything and remained silent.

"It seems that you don't know everything." Sandrine's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and her eyes gradually became vague, as if she was immersed in deep memories.

......

"Are you the hunting fanatic - Sandrine?" Lawrence sat at his desk, a look of surprise on his face, staring at the young man standing in front of the door.

"You actually knew that?" Sandrine was still a proud young man at the time, and was surprised to be recognized by Lawrenson at a glance:

"How did you know? No one noticed me sneaking in."

Lawrence laughed in silence, shook his head slightly, and said:

"You did a good job of covering it up. The ability of 'replacement' is quite tricky and almost impossible to guard against. But there is always a loophole, and you still revealed a flaw."

"What flaw?"

"You haven't completely mastered the habits of this body yet. I guess it's only been a few days since you completed the replacement?"

Lawrence tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table, his face calm, and he spoke slowly and calmly:

"This man is my office guard. As a person in power in a country, how could I be so careless?"

"Everyone I know well, I will remember their daily habits, just to guard against assassins like you who have perfect assassination skills."

Sandrina's face suddenly darkened, he clenched his hands into fists, and snorted coldly:

"So what if you recognize me? You are just an ordinary person, and I am an S-class ability user. If I want to kill you, you will be powerless to resist."

However, Lawrence was not panicked at all. With a faint smile on his face, he stared at the young man not far away and responded calmly:

"Don't forget, I hold the button that alerts everyone."

"Even if you can kill me, you will never be able to escape unscathed. You will only die in the end."

"you--"

"Hey, don't be anxious." Lawrence raised his hand to signal Sandrine to stay calm, then slowly stood up and walked to him at a leisurely pace:

"If I had any ill will towards you, I would have notified the other protectors to execute you on the spot as soon as I discovered your invasion."

"You thought you sneaked in without anyone noticing, but in fact I secretly approved it."

"You are quite courageous. You actually dare to have ideas about the person in power in a country."

Hearing this, Sandrine's expression changed several times in an instant. He stared at Lawrenson's eyes that were shining with wisdom, but finally he was defeated.

He doesn't want to die.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" Sandrine sighed helplessly and asked as if she had accepted her fate.

Lawrence put his hands behind his back and laughed heartily. That laughter seemed to reveal his understanding and control over the situation:

"Don't worry. The proposal I'm going to make next will not only not do you any harm, but it will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

“How many different lives have you experienced so far?”

Sandrine looked up at Laurenson with a slightly depressed look on her face, and said bluntly: "26 kinds, each one has a completely different identity."

"Oh?" Lawrence raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of barely perceptible envy flashed across his eyes: "You are really good at entertaining yourself, you have such a rich experience."

?

Sandrine stared at Lawrenson with a puzzled look on his face, and said in a puzzled tone: "Half of these 26 people are corpses, and the other half were killed by me and replaced."

"After doing so many inhumane things, you don't seem to have any reaction at all?"

"Then how should I react? Shock? Angry? Or scold you?"

Lawrence asked back slowly, his expression frighteningly calm:

"I also killed people when I was young. The higher I climbed, the more dissidents I eliminated."

"You have to understand that everyone in a high position climbed up step by step by step on the corpses of others. And this is the price you have to pay to climb up."

Lawrenson's tone was as calm as if he was talking about a very ordinary little thing, but it made Sandrine shudder and feel a chill in her heart.

Is this the person in power? He is even more cruel and ruthless than I imagined.

Sandrine was secretly shocked.

"Okay, let's get back to the topic." Lawrence waved his hand, his expression suddenly becoming serious:

"Haven't you always coveted my position?"

"I can give it to you."

These two sentences were like two bombshells, leaving Sandrine frozen in place, her mouth slightly open, disbelief written all over her face, her whole body stunned with shock.

"You.....do you know what you are saying?"

"Are you kidding me?"

Facing Sandrine's questioning, Lawrenson just shook his head slightly, his face extremely serious, without a trace of joking.

"I mean it, Sandrine."

"My life and this position are all mine to give to you."

Having said this, Lawrence seemed to have suddenly been drained of all his strength and looked a little exhausted.

He slowly walked back to his chair, leaned heavily against the back, and sighed several times.

"As for why I do this, you will understand it later."

"Sandrine, I have only one request."

Sandrine came back to her senses, staring at Lawrence, her voice unconsciously lowered: "What's the request?"

"I don't expect you to make this country prosperous, I just hope you can keep it going and not let it decline."

"You have lived 26 different lives. Apart from the experience of being in a high position, your experience in other aspects is much richer than mine. For this reason alone, I am ashamed of myself."

"That's why I'm considering giving this position to you."

However, Sandrine was not so easily convinced. He was still full of doubts and snorted coldly:

"How do I know this isn't a trap you set? Also, why did you choose me? Those protectors are all native Kongmeng people. Aren't they more suitable for this position than me?"

At this moment, Lawrence had lost his previous energy and spirit. He seemed to be shrouded in a layer of deathly aura and looked extremely weak.

He closed his eyes slightly and responded weakly: "Each of them has his own talents, but when it comes to governing a country, they know nothing at all."

"I don't have much time left, Sandrine. I can clearly feel that I am about to die."

"After I die, that group of people will definitely fight to the death for this position. By then, the whole country will fall into chaos and the people will suffer."

"You have the ability to 'replace'. You can replace me without anyone noticing and sit firmly in this position."

"Besides, you have experienced so many different kinds of life, and you understand the lives of the lower classes better than I do."

"As for governing the country... as long as you replace me, you will naturally inherit all my memories and habits, including my experience in governing the country. Although it will take some time to adapt, it is not a problem."

"I've thought about it and there's no one more suitable than you."
