The statements made by Ling Yunbo and Ling Yuntao changed the nature of the matter.
The conflict between the Ling family and the Burning Heaven Sect has turned into an internal conflict within the Ling family.
At this moment, Lin Lie and Lin Xu of the Burning Heaven Sect remained silent, simply watching quietly.
The people of the three great dynasties and the four great families did the same thing.
Once these people got the rhythm going, they watched the show quietly with great interest.
Ling Hao was furious as he watched this scene.
“I knew it was my eldest uncle and fifth uncle. It was them after all. I just don’t understand how we could do such a thing when we’re all family.”
Ling Yuwei sighed and guessed:
"Perhaps it's because of the position of family head. Back then, the competition between Father and Uncle was quite fierce, and Father ultimately won."
My uncle was resentful; he usually kept it to himself, but now it's showing.
What I don't understand is why he chose to cooperate with the Burning Heaven Sect. He couldn't possibly be unaware of the Burning Heaven Sect's intentions.
Ling Hao was equally puzzled, "Yes, doesn't this harm the Ling family's interests? What good would it do him?"
Ling Yuwei wasn't sure either, "Or maybe the other party promised him some other benefits, or there's some other reason we don't know about."
Qin Feng sighed inwardly. Sure enough, wherever there are people, there is conflict. Even a long-established family has encountered such a thing. The Ling family is now facing internal and external troubles and is not at peace.
Faced with Ling Yunfei's questioning, Ling Yunbo calmly responded:
"Yunfei, others may not know the situation, but as the head of the Ling family, don't you understand?"
No one knows better than you or me what situation our Ling family is facing right now.
If we don't find a solution, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that our Ling family is facing annihilation.
Ling Yunfei's heart tightened, and a fleeting look of panic crossed his face.
Qin Feng still noticed that Ling Yunbo's words puzzled him.
With Ling Wushang, a Royal Realm expert, as their trump card, the Ling family is unlikely to be easily offended by any force, as doing so would come at a heavy price.
Unless Ling Wushang has encountered a problem and Ling Yunbo learns of the situation, he will be desperate to find a way out for the Ling family, and his choice is to join forces with the Burning Heaven Sect.
Both of them started out in weapon crafting, so they are well-matched in terms of weapon crafting skills.
Ling Yunfei glared angrily at Ling Yunbo, "Is this your reason for leading the Burning Heaven Sect to betray the Ling family?"
Ling Yunbo shook his head. "Betrayal? How could I betray them? I care about the Ling family more than you do."
Ling Yunfei scoffed.
"Hehe, do you dare say that you didn't cause all of this? The sharp drop in trading volume before, and now you've made such a fool of yourself in front of so many people."
Now you keep saying you're thinking of the Ling family, is this still the respected older brother I used to know?
Ling Yunbo remained expressionless in the face of Ling Yunfei's accusations.
"Yunfei, can't you see clearly? For so many years, the Ling family has been living a comfortable life under your leadership, without any achievements or mistakes."
It seems good, but stagnation is regression. It wouldn't have been so bad before, but the current situation doesn't allow things to continue like this. Therefore, I want to cooperate with the Burning Heaven Sect and become one."
Qin Feng gleaned a lot of information from their conversation.
Whether Ling Yunbo is truly thinking about the future of the Ling family is hard to say, but the Ling family is definitely facing some problems, and quite significant ones at that.
Seeing Ling Yunbo's righteous and indignant words, Ling Yunfei felt even angrier.
"Ling Yunbo, don't put on such a nice front. Do you dare to say that our poor weapons sales this time have nothing to do with you?"
You make it sound so noble, like you're doing it for the family's sake, but can you honestly say you have no selfish motives?"
Ling Yunbo remained unfazed.
"Yunfei, you should know whether what I said is true or not, let's not talk about anything else."
The problem facing our Ling family now is that we can't sell our magical artifacts and treasures. What should we do? Do you have a solution?
Speaking of this, Ling Yunfei flew into a rage. "Hmph, all these problems are your doing! If it weren't for your meddling, how could we have these problems?"
Ling Yunbo remained calm and did not directly respond to Ling Yunfei's accusations.
"These things have already happened, so there's no point in dwelling on them. What we need to do now is find ways to solve them."
I suggest that Ling Yuwei and Lin Xu become Daoist partners, and that our Ling family and the Burning Heaven Sect unite as one.
"By utilizing the sales channels of the Burning Heaven Sect, we can address our immediate crisis; this will benefit both of us."
This was Lin Lie of the Burning Heaven Sect responding at the opportune moment:
“Brother Expo is right, we are very willing to help the Ling family solve their problems.”
To be honest, the three great dynasties and the four great families have already placed many orders with my Burning Heaven Sect, and I'm worried about not having enough manpower.
If our two families were to unite through marriage, I would be willing to share these businesses.
Lin Lie's move was a blatant slap in the face to the Ling family. Both were weapon-refining forces, but while they were extremely busy, the Ling family was worried about finding a market.
Ling Yunfei looked at Ling Yunbo with a mocking expression.
"Hehe, you really are thinking of the Ling family, giving away all our business to them."
Ling Yuntao, the fifth son of the Ling family, interjected at this moment:
"Third Brother, there's no point in worrying about right and wrong now. Solving the problem is the most important thing."
"Your incompetent leadership over the years has led the Ling family to this dire situation. You should step down and let my eldest brother take over as head of the family."
At this moment, many members of the Ling family responded to Ling Yuntao's suggestion and joined in the shouting.
"When the leader is incompetent, the head of the household should be changed."
People from the three great dynasties and the four great families also started to stir up trouble.
