Ling Feng didn't care about the soldier's backing at all; anyone who dared to provoke him, no matter who they were, would be killed without hesitation!

Based on Xu Hu's description, he started walking towards the conference room!

at the same time,

The elders of the Longping base are currently holding this secret meeting.

The five elders of the Elder Council are the highest decision-making body of the Longping Base, and they are also the base's strongest combat force.

Sitting at the head of the table was Elder Long Si, who looked about five parts like Long Jiu, but his aura was much stronger than Long Jiu's.

The atmosphere at the meeting was noticeably tense at this point.

"Long Jiu, you've been scared out of your wits by that Ling Feng, haven't you? How could you say you'd give up Handong Province!" Second Elder Yang Lin said to Long Jiu with a mocking expression.

“That’s right, Fourth Brother, is Ling Feng really that terrifying? No matter how powerful he is, he’s still an Emperor-level expert. Do you think we can’t beat him alone?” The speaker was a middle-aged man in a suit, who was also the Third Elder, Chen Zhen. He had a square face and looked very dignified.

Long Jiu's expression turned solemn, and he sighed.

"I'm not trying to boost anyone's morale, but Ling Feng's strength is unfathomable. I'm afraid even if the five of us join forces, we might not be able to defeat him!"

"Moreover, he has now obtained a great opportunity at the Genesis Mountain, and his strength will definitely reach a new level. We are no match for him. Therefore, I suggest that we befriend him and avoid unnecessary friction!"

Yang Lin chuckled, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

"Long Jiu, I'm starting to suspect you've been bribed by that Ling Feng. How could you say something like that!"

"Your words are not convincing at all. Besides, I told you I would go to Genesis Mountain, but you insisted on going yourself, and sure enough, you messed things up!"

"Now that Ling Feng has obtained that opportunity, we should go find him even more. How can we let an outsider take what belongs to Handong Province? Don't you all agree with me?"

Third Elder Chen Zhen nodded slowly, indicating his agreement.

The only woman among the five, the Fifth Elder Li Xiuer, also agreed.

A hint of smugness flashed in Yang Lin's eyes.

Yang Lin was vehemently opposed to befriending Ling Feng, since everyone Ling Feng had killed before was from his faction.

He hated Ling Feng to the core and wished nothing more than to completely annihilate the War God Base.

"Yang Lin, don't put the safety of the base aside because of some personal grudges. Don't think I don't know that you've been forming cliques in the base and making a mess of the whole place. Most of the people Ling Feng killed were yours, right?" Long Jiu slammed his fist on the table and pointed directly at Yang Lin's nose, shouting angrily.

Li Xiuer and Chen Zhen both turned to look at Long Jiu, their faces filled with surprise.

It's an open secret that Yang Lin cultivates personal connections; even the Grand Elder turns a blind eye.

Unexpectedly, Long Jiu directly broke the ice and brought it to the table, which is now going to be interesting!

Yang Lin was so angry that his face turned ashen, and a murderous intent flashed through his mind.

This Long Jiu always likes to go against me, ruining many of my plans. Now he's revealed my bottom line.

He immediately refuted this sternly.

"Long Jiu, don't talk nonsense here. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I think you've taken bribes from Ling Feng. I think we should investigate you properly!"

Long Jiu's face flushed red with anger, and he abruptly stood up! He cursed, "Bullshit!"

"Damn it, do you dare say that again?!" Yang Lin also stood up, his face full of murderous intent.

"Shut up, all of you!"

A deep voice rang out, and the two who were still angry fell silent!

Long Si slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the two of them with an indifferent expression.

"Sit down and talk!"

Although the two looked unconvinced, they reluctantly sat down.

"These are all high-ranking officials from the base; what kind of behavior is this, shouting and yelling like that!"

Long Si pinched his brow and continued:

"We need to discuss how to handle Ling Feng's matter slowly, but we absolutely cannot give up Handong Province. Although it is not large in area and lacks resources, its strategic location is extremely important. If we give it up, the people behind us will not agree!"

Upon hearing this, Long Jiu became somewhat anxious and immediately said:

"But, brother, what about Ling Feng..."

Long Siyi raised his hand and interrupted him.

"Do we use job titles when we're working? Okay, enough of that. Now let's discuss who should lead the base. Long Aotian is dead, and the base can't be left without someone to manage it! Do you have any suitable candidates?"

"I think Xu Hu is pretty good! He's very hardworking and knows how to get along with people!" Yang Lin immediately pushed his man forward and looked at Long Jiu with a provocative expression.

He sneered inwardly.

See, I've pushed my people out, so what can you do about it!

Long Jiu clenched his fists tightly. With someone like this in the base, Longping Base would be destroyed sooner or later. But his older brother didn't care and let him do whatever he wanted.

Although his elder brother was very powerful, he was timid and unwilling to offend anyone. In addition, Yang Lin had connections with higher-ups, so he chose to acquiesce to Yang Lin's actions.

After Yang Lin finished explaining his recommended candidates,

Chen Zhen and Li Xiuer remained silent and did not recommend their own names, which can be regarded as their tacit acceptance of Yang Lin's recommendation.

They all knew about Yang Lin's connections and didn't want to offend him.

Long Si glanced at the group and said in a deep voice:

"Since none of you have any objections, then the selection of this person...!"

"Bang!"

Long Si was interrupted by a loud bang before he could finish speaking!

Everyone looked toward the door. The solid wood door of the conference room had been kicked to pieces, and wood chips from the door were scattered in every corner of the conference room!

A young man in black with a cold expression stood at the entrance!

The young man had a strong and resolute appearance, exuding a powerful aura that inspired awe in those who looked upon him!

Long Jiu was startled when he saw the person's face clearly!

Why is Ling Feng here? He doesn't seem very happy!

Ling Feng strode into the conference room and looked at the five people sitting at the table. He immediately spotted Long Jiu. Judging from their seating arrangement, Long Jiu's status didn't seem to be very high.

"Who are you, daring to trespass into this important area of ​​the base? And who let you in?" Yang Lin looked at Ling Feng with a gloomy expression and said coldly.

Ling Feng ignored her and instead looked at the group, asking calmly:

"Who here is Yang Lin?"

"I am Yang Lin, what do you want with me!" Yang Lin looked at him with an ugly expression.

Ling Feng looked surprised. Yang Lin looked to be seventy years old, but his son was so young. Amazing!

He said with a slight smile:

"Oh, you must be Yang Lin. It's nothing really, I just accidentally killed your son when I came in. You don't mind, do you?"
