Chapter 420 Showdown



However, Lin Tao also understood that there were some things that he couldn't be too anxious about, otherwise it would arouse the suspicion of the Grand Speaker and would end up in a bad situation.

However, what happened to Lu Mengchen this time may also be an opportunity.

While Lin Tao was thinking this, there was a knock on the door.

“Lin Tao, Lin Tao!” Liu Xueying said anxiously, “The Grand Speaker… The Grand Speaker is coming, he… he…”

Lin Tao answered and opened the door. Looking at Liu Xueying, whose face was filled with anxiety, he couldn't help but smile: "Okay, I'll be right there."

Liu Xueying was stunned. She didn't know when Lin Tao's behavior became more and more mysterious. Even the people who had been with him could not guess what he was thinking.

Seeing Lin Tao walking downstairs, Liu Xueying sighed inexplicably. Although she wanted to follow him, it was a pity that it was a conversation with the Speaker, and it was not a place for small people like them to take the stage.

When they arrived at the living room, the Grand Speaker Yue Hong and Lu Mengchen sat on their sides.

Chief Speaker Yue Hong was fine, but Lu Mengchen was a little restless and looked embarrassed. When he saw Lin Tao coming, a look of panic appeared on his face.

He can really sit down and talk with the Grand Speaker! Inexplicably, this thought popped up in Lu Mengchen's mind and could not be dispelled for a long time.

This is no wonder. As the Grand Speaker, he is the number one person in the Human Interstellar Federation. All those who can sit down and talk with him directly are powerful figures in the Interstellar Federation.

At best, Lin Tao is just the lord of a small planet that has just risen on Mingyuan Star. The status of the two is very different.

But now they were sitting in the same room. Although they had some guesses in their hearts, it was still beyond their expectations.

The look in Lu Mengchen's eyes when he looked at Lin Tao suddenly changed.

"Lin Tao, come and sit here." Speaker Yue Hong seemed to be interested in tea art. He had already brewed a pot of hot tea and poured a cup of scented tea for Lin Tao.

"Daisy tea is good. Sometimes it can help people calm down." Speaker Yue Hong laughed.

Lin Tao took the hot tea with both hands, blew a sip of the hot air, took a sip, and put it down. He looked at the chairman Yue Hong and the chairman of the House and chuckled: "You didn't come here specially to taste tea this time, did you?"

The Grand Speaker ignored Lin Tao's words and looked at Lu Mengchen: "Little Mengchen, tell me, what kind of person is Sister Yao usually?"

In fact, this information had already appeared on his desk, but at this moment, Chen Huyuan realized that the information seemed to have been tampered with and was completely inconsistent with the real information.

Xiao Mengchen? Lin Tao looked at the two people in front of him in astonishment.

"I...I..." Looking at the person in front of him who had helped him a lot, Lu Mengchen stammered a few times, and tears immediately dripped down.

"Okay, okay, little Mengchen, don't cry." Chen Huyuan's heart softened immediately when he saw her. After all, this Lu Mengchen was the person he discovered. After spending a long time with her, he already treated her as his own daughter.

"Grand Speaker, Sister Yao...she..."

When Chen Huyuan mentioned Sister Yao, his heart, which had just softened, recovered again. His face darkened: "Okay, Xiao Mengchen, someone will tell you about Sister Yao. Now, you have to tell me how Sister Yao found you."

Chen Huyuan's sudden change in tone immediately made Lu Mengchen understand that although this old man was close, he was the highest authority in the entire Human Interstellar Federation.

After sighing, Lu Mengchen began to recall the past: "Sister Yao came when I posted the recruitment advertisement. At that time, she..."

It didn't take long for Lu Mengchen to recount the whole process of how she met Sister Yao.

It turned out that Lu Mengchen felt that the ability of the agent around her was limited, so she had to post a recruitment advertisement and hire a new agent, and then she appeared in front of her.

This Sister Yao is not only capable of doing things, but also seems to know many lyricists and composers in the circle, and she found a song for Lu Mengchen that can allow her to perfectly display the mysterious power of her voice.

With these songs, Lu Mengchen became an irreplaceable superstar in the entire human interstellar federation. Even Skynet and Watch Communications came to her and adopted her voice.

Not only that, Sister Yao also has outstanding abilities in life. Not only does she arrange Lu Mengchen's life properly, she even uses the relationship between the Grand Speaker and Lu Mengchen to create a huge network for her that can deal with wealthy young men from all sides, making Lu Mengchen trust her very much.

After hearing all this, the Grand Speaker frowned secretly, his eyes showing hesitation, while Speaker Yue Hong looked at Lin Tao.

After Lu Mengchen finished speaking, he looked at the three people's faces. Seeing that the two of them seemed to be paying attention to Lin Tao, his eyes couldn't help but fall on Lin Tao.

"Lin Tao, why did she run away?" The Grand Speaker asked after he recovered after a while.

Escape? Who wants to escape? At this time, Lu Mengchen hadn't reacted yet. He looked at everyone in astonishment, his eyes puzzled.

Lin Tao knew it very well, but at this moment, he pretended to be confused: "Did she really escape?"

"Through video investigation, we found that after she finished contacting Lu Mengchen, she called another number. After that call, she began to flee the capital star." At this time, Speaker Yue Hong spoke.

"Dialed another number?" Lin Tao was surprised.

"Sister Yao escaped from the capital planet?" Lu Mengchen seemed unable to believe it and stood there in a daze.

"Through the application of the Grand Speaker, I have investigated the communication number through the watch communication." Speaker Yue Hong said, his tone suddenly became heavy: "That communication number comes from the Star Pirates' Headquarters. However, since most of the Star Pirates use some special watches, we were unable to find out the owner of the communication number for a while."

The Starry Sky Pirates' Headquarters? Lin Tao's pupils suddenly contracted. It seemed that the Lin family was rescued by the Starry Sky Pirates some time ago? Moreover, when Lin Tao and his companions were returning on the Tianhou, they were also attacked by the Starry Sky Pirates.

If it weren't for Lin Tao's Demon Mecha and the super-space energy cannon hidden in the Tianhou-class starry sky battleship, it would have been a very dangerous situation at that time.

Everything seemed to indicate that there were three-eyed people behind the Star Pirates' headquarters! "Did... those people inform her?" Lin Tao was about to say 'three-eyed people', but when he saw Lu Mengchen who was already stunned, Lin Tao changed his words on the spot.

The Grand Speaker also glanced at Lu Mengchen. He narrowed his eyes slightly and realized that Lu Mengchen really seemed to be unaware of the situation. Then he said, "Little Mengchen, please step back for now."

"I...I..." Lu Mengchen opened her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She stared blankly at the Speaker, then glanced at Lin Tao, and left the living room in a daze.

"It's not safe here, let's talk in the car," Speaker Yue Hong signaled.

The Grand Speaker nodded, stood up and left the villa first, followed by Speaker Lin Tao and Yue Hong.

After entering the hover car, Lin Tao realized that this hover car was different from the ones he had seen before. It was a completely modified RV, and the layout of the interior space was like a small office.

When the glass window with film is closed, people outside cannot see what is going on inside, but people inside can clearly see everything outside.

Speaker Yue Hong pressed a button in the car and signaled to the two: "Okay, now only the three of us can hear our conversation."

After saying that, Speaker Yue Hong took out a teapot from a secret compartment and brewed another pot of tea. He used the same daisy tea leaves as before and seemed to have a special interest in daisies.

"Lin Tao, why are they avoiding you?" The Grand Speaker kept watching Lin Tao out of the corner of his eye, and seeing that he looked normal, he couldn't help but ask.

Avoid me? Lin Tao was startled, then realized: "The Speaker is talking about the three-eyed man who wants to avoid me?"

"Well, as far as I know, Lu Mengchen came to her to complain, but unexpectedly it aroused her vigilance and eventually she contacted the person behind the scenes. But in that situation, the person behind the scenes asked her to give up Lu Mengchen immediately and leave the capital star." The Speaker said in a deep voice.

After listening to this, Speaker Yue Hong slowed down his action of making tea, and his eyes also fell on Lin Tao.

"Grand Speaker, is this your guess or inference?" Lin Tao asked calmly.

"Whether it's speculation or inference, her behavior is revealing that those three-eyed people want to avoid you." The Speaker frowned: "Is it because you have the ability to kill the three-eyed people, or -"

The Grand Speaker's eyes tightened: "Do you have a special way of communicating with each other secretly?"

As soon as these words came out, Chairman Yue Hong's whole body stiffened and his pupils suddenly tightened.

Lin Tao crossed his fingers, laid them flat on his lap, and smiled slightly: "If I really had a special connection with the three-eyed man, I'm sure the Speaker wouldn't have invited me to ride in this car."

At this point, Lin Tao paused and said, "Grand Speaker, shouldn't you tell me more about the three-eyed man?"

"Haha~" The Great Speaker laughed: "Lin Tao, you seem to have hidden a lot from us. Did you have a conversation with the three-eyed man in the Lin family's capital star?"

Lin Tao's familiarity with the three-eyed man, which he revealed time and again, was even beyond the Grand Speaker's understanding, which made the Grand Speaker have other thoughts in his mind.

"Lin Tao, do you know the relationship between the three-eyed people and us humans?" Speaker Yue Hong suddenly asked in a deep voice.

At this point, Lin Tao knew that if he continued to hide it, he would probably not be able to hide it from the two people in front of him. However, Lin Tao followed the words of the Grand Speaker and nodded: "I had a brief exchange with the three-eyed man."

"Well, although I don't agree with what the three-eyed man said, he has shown me... well, an extraordinary ability, and some technologies that seem to be far beyond our human interstellar federation." Lin Tao said.
