Chapter 701 The White-Haired Man's Giving Up

"White-haired leader, please!"

Qingyu pushed open the door, smiled, and gestured for the white-haired group to enter the conference room.

"The other captains' men should go back first."

He then waved his hand to disperse the bystanders behind him and led the most important people in the crowd into the conference room.

Among them are Lun En, Yu Qing, Zheng Deliang, Dr. Lin, Hank, and others...

Han Shuo, Fatty, Xiao Zhao, Li Shurou, and Cheng Shenghong's brothers were naturally among them. Their elite team now wields considerable influence throughout the entire Ice City!

...

"Smack!"

After Zheng Deliang slammed the door shut, Han Shuo and his group could no longer hold back.

Besides him and the fat guy, the other members of the team had also spent a long time living and working with the cyborgs...

The resurrection of the four silver-haired siblings brought joy to everyone present.

Led by Li Shurou, they quickly found the red-haired and purple-haired men and began catching up with each other, their faces filled with excitement.

"It's wonderful that you all can be brought back to life!"

The silver-haired and blonde-haired men walked up to Cheng Shenghong, frowned as they looked at his mecha-like skin, and forced a smile from the corner of their mouths.

“Brother Shenghong, you look very different now, your long hair is short, but! I’m really happy to see you again.”

"Have you gotten stronger again? Let's have another sparring match later..."

"Hahaha! I guess I turned misfortune into a blessing in disguise, I got a cheat code halfway through. Also, blonde little sister, you might not be my match now, you know?"

"Hmph! Come on, come on, whoever chickens out is a coward!"

...

Seeing his younger siblings so happy, Baifa felt much happier.

She didn't interrupt, but sat on a chair to the side, quietly observing the faces of the people in front of her.

She knew that these people were the most important people in the Ice City.

This is where they will be staying for a long time, and she needs to gradually adapt to living with so many humans again.

However, the only thing that puzzled her was:

Why isn't Feng, the strongest human being and the most important person in the upcoming great battle, here?

Although the white-haired man had questions in his mind, he didn't ask any further...

...

After an unknown amount of time, Qingyu finally spoke, interrupting everyone's reminiscing.

"Alright, alright, everyone, please be quiet for a moment."

Seeing that everyone in the room was focused on him, he coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then turned to look at the white-haired man.

"Cough, cough."

"White-haired leader, the promise I made in my letter still stands. Now that you have come here, then... from this day forward, you are the leader of this ice city."

As he spoke, he pulled a black card out of his pocket.

This black identity card originally belonged to Yue Zongyang.

Later, Han Shuo shifted the blame to Qing Yu...

But today, Qingyu decided to pass it on to Baifa!

...

At the same time, no one in the room dared to utter a sound.

Everyone's feelings are incredibly complex.

To be honest, they were already used to Qingyu leading the team, and Qingyu had indeed done a very good job all along.

Is this ice city suddenly going to change owners today?

Although they had made ample preparations in advance, when the day arrived, several soldiers, led by Zheng Deliang and Yu Qing, still showed a hint of disappointment.

...

However, the next moment, something completely unexpected happened.

Then, the white-haired man slowly stood up from the chair, looked at Qingyu's serious expression, and shook his head.

She said, "Commander Qingyu, let's just forget about it..."

"I choose to give up..."

"What!?"

Qingyu's eyes widened, somewhat unable to believe what she was hearing.

At this moment, the white-haired man continued to speak, as if addressing everyone, yet also seemingly talking to himself...

"To be honest, I was indeed very ambitious about this position."

"To be honest, you humans have always been in control of us. I want to try what it's like to be in control of you humans!"

"However! Something that happened not long ago made me realize that not all of you humans are the way I remember you."

As she said this, she couldn't help but look at Han Shuo and his group of people beside her.

Lunn, Dr. Lin, and the others standing nearby were somewhat puzzled, but the white-haired man did not offer much explanation.

Her eyes suddenly turned somewhat melancholy as she continued speaking.

"It cannot be denied that I was once hostile to you humans, but from now on, I sincerely want to be your friend."

"Since we're all friends, I no longer care so much about these empty titles."

She smiled and nodded at Qingyu, then put the black identity card back into her pocket.

"We don't have much time left, and I don't have time to learn more about everything in this ice city."

"Not long ago, I monitored you via satellite for a long time and learned some things about your character from Han Shuo and the others!"

"I trust you to continue leading the people of this city!"

"The reason I came here is simply to follow my younger siblings' advice and fight alongside you. I ask for nothing more!"

...

After the white-haired man finished speaking, everyone in the room froze in place.

"She doesn't want her position as the leader of Ice City anymore?"

This was something they had never expected.

The disappointment in Zheng Deliang and Yu Qing's eyes vanished instantly, replaced by anticipation as they looked at Qingyu.

No one wanted their commander to continue in that position more than the two of them!

Qingyu, however, was somewhat bewildered at this moment.

To be honest, he felt really bad when he wrote that letter and made that decision.

He was distressed that he had failed the director's expectations and had personally handed over the future of humanity to unfamiliar cyborgs.

However, in order to win the war and return to the peaceful era, he had no choice but to do so...

...

Now, the white-haired man was actually refusing the matter in front of him? This was something Qingyu never expected...

He slowly raised his head, looked at the white-haired man, and spoke.

"White-haired leader, are you... are you sure you want to do this?"

"Sure!"

Having received another affirmative answer from the white-haired man, Qingyu's eyes instantly hardened.

He naturally still wants to maintain this leadership role!

He nodded to the white-haired cyborgs and said solemnly.

"Don't worry, White-haired Chief, you will definitely receive the fairest treatment in this Ice City!"

The white-haired leader responded with a smile, and then the two leaders shook hands amicably.

This handshake also signifies that humanity and the cyborgs have officially begun their alliance!
