Power was an extension of strength, and it was the foundation of Xu Lingchong's position in the center. No matter who dared to touch the power in his hands, that person was Xu Lingchong's enemy. How could he allow others to sleep beside his bed!
At that moment, Xu Lingchong even unconsciously felt murderous. If Zhong Pingliang dared to stand in his way, he wouldn't mind finding an excuse to make this follower disappear from the face of the earth.
"What? You have a problem with that? "The mysterious man snorted coldly.
Although they didn't do anything, the temperature in the secret room suddenly dropped a lot, sending chills down people's backs. Zhong Pingliang recovered from the trembling just now, and this time it was Xu Lingchong's turn to be shocked.
"No … No, I wouldn't dare!" Xu Lingchong was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He thought to himself that he was so angry that he lost his head. There was no room for him to interrupt when the mysterious man promoted his subordinates. Once he made the mysterious man dissatisfied, not to mention being the Special Envoy of the North Island, he wouldn't even be able to keep his life. His life and death were all in the hands of the mysterious man.
"If there's a next time, don't be the envoy anymore, we're currently lacking Nascent Soul stage test subjects." The mysterious man looked at him coldly, and when he saw that Xu Lingchong was about to kneel on the ground in fear, he explained, "It was Junior Pao who recommended Zhong Pingliang to be the envoy of the North Island. Even if you have any other thoughts, put them away. Don't try anything funny, or even I won't be able to protect you."
In fact, putting himself in Xu Lingchong's shoes, the mysterious man could understand Xu Lingchong's feelings at the moment. In fact, the person he had originally planned was only Xu Lingchong, and at most, Meng Tong as his assistant. But now that the higher-ups had hinted, he could only break his original arrangement.
"Ah? So it's Master Pao's recommendation … "Xu Lingchong instantly became listless, and after hearing the name, he couldn't help but lose his soul. He knew that there was no turning back, and from now on, not only could he not make things difficult for Zhong Pingliang, but he had to change his attitude and build a good relationship with him. He had to throw away his pride and make friends.
After all, Master Pao was like a master to him, and had the power to decide his life and death, just like the mysterious man. Since it was Master Pao's idea to promote Zhong Pingliang, how could Xu Lingchong dare to say no?
Master Pao? Pinliang almost jumped up when he heard this, his eyes widening. If he hadn't lowered his head on purpose, the mysterious man would've noticed something fishy.
What the f * ck! The last time he heard this name, Pinliang couldn't help but wonder if this Master Pao had some sort of connection with Zhang Naipao. Now, he was seventy to eighty percent sure. His conjecture seemed to be possible!
If this Great Pao wasn't Zhang Naipao, then why would he recommend him for no reason at all? Pinliang didn't have any contact with the people in the center, not a single one of them. If it weren't for that, that so-called Master Pao wouldn't have even heard of his name, let alone recommended him out of the blue … …
Zhang Naipao had suddenly turned into the powerful Master Pao of the Center! This unexpected discovery left Pinliang speechless, even though he hadn't confirmed it yet. But even this seventy to eighty percent possibility was already incredible.
But this Zhang Naipao wouldn't really betray them, would he? Otherwise, how could he be doing so well in the center? Fuck, he would have to ask him if he had the chance to see him in the future. This kid better not be ungrateful!
Pinliang felt the mysterious man's gaze on him. Pinliang reacted and pretended to be grateful, "Thank you for the recommendation, Senior, I will do my best to complete this mission!"
"Alright. I don't have any special mission for you yet. What you need to do next is to get used to it, and ask Xu Lingchong if there's anything you don't understand. Of course, you can also use the blood bat to contact me directly. "The mysterious man nodded faintly.
Xu Lingchong couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Being able to contact the mysterious man directly meant that they were on equal footing now. A minute ago, he was just an insignificant follower, and now he had to be on good terms with the mysterious man. This kind of feeling was f * cked up no matter how he thought about it …
Pinliang smirked at Xu Lingchong and said playfully, "Then I'll be in your care in the future, Chong bro."
"Not at all, not at all. Pinliang you … oh no, Liang bro, please forgive me for what happened in the past. In the future, we brothers will work together sincerely, and strive not to disappoint Senior and Master Pao." Xu Lingchong smiled awkwardly.
Pinliang chuckled, but in his mind, he was thinking about how to pass this news to Lin Yi. Besides, now that he was the so-called envoy of the northern island, he needed a few subordinates to order around, or else he would still be under Xu Lingchong's control.
Looking at the group of people under Xu Lingchong's command, Meng Tong was Xu Lingchong's loyal follower, so there was no need to consider that. On the other hand, Kang Ming Ming was too scheming, and he always thought that he was above Pinliang, so there was no way to rope him in. Then, the only ones left were Yu Zhe, Nan Tianba, Southern Sky Gate, and that half-crippled Ma Daoqiang.
Especially Ma Daoqiang, he had water in his head, so he should be able to pull it in easily.
Pinliang officially took up his post in the secret room, and on the other side, the first residence of the Blue Cloud Pavilion was brightly lit and filled with laughter. Not only were Lin Yi and the others gathered, but even Hong Zhong had specially rushed over after receiving the news.
Originally, with his sensitive identity as the vice president of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, he couldn't enter the inner sect of the three great pavilions as he pleased, but Hong Zhong and Lin Yi's personal relationship was already known by everyone, plus he had a good relationship with the three great pavilions' higher-ups, so he wasn't afraid of breaking the taboo this time. No one would cause trouble for him and Lin Yi for such a small matter, unless that person was sick in the head and was tired of living.
When the banquet was ready, Lin Yi sat at the head of the table, and Hong Zhong sat on his left. After all, whether it was status or strength, he was the highest here after Lin Yi, so he deserved to sit in this position. Behind Hong Zhong was Lu Bianren and Senior Brother Ku Bi, while on the right of Lin Yi sat Shanghai Laner, Xiao Ran, Qiao Hongcai, and Li Zhengming.
It was not an exaggeration to use the phrase 'a galaxy of talents' to describe everyone present here. Needless to say, Lin Yi, Hong Zhong, and Shangguan Lan 'er were either big shots or Heaven's proud sons and daughters. As for the rest of the people here, compared to other Clear Cloud Pavilion disciples, each one of them was an undeniable elite. Floating Astronomy.
