Ling Tian let out a hearty laugh and his laughter was filled with confidence, "Brother JingLei is indeed a smart person to be able to speak frankly. You don't have to worry about this! Furthermore, our cooperation will not begin today. We still have plenty of time! "
"Plenty of time? What Prince Ling lacks the most right now is time! "DongFang JingLei asked in shock.
"That's right! For the sake of peace, all matters of cooperation will have to wait until the Martial Order Medallion is over. Of course, if I am killed by Justice in the end, then there is no need to talk about it. "Ling Tian lowered his body slightly, his eyes burning with passion," But if I am lucky enough to survive this calamity, I will do my best to assist you in seizing the position of the Family Head of the DongFang Family. I will eliminate all opposition and establish your absolute position in the Eastern Zhao Imperial Court! At that time, even if the Emperor of Eastern Zhao says something, without your nod, it will be nothing but a piece of paper! "
DongFang JingLei's eyes burned with passion and his face flushed red. He took in two deep breaths and asked, "Then, what do I need to do?"
"You naturally need to do something! There is no such thing as reaping without sowing. If I say that you don't need to do anything, would you believe me?! " Ling Tian raised his head leisurely, "What you need to do is to control the entire Eastern Zhao army in your hands. When necessary, you must cooperate with me. For example, sending troops to the Southeast, or the Northwest … "
"No!" DongFang JingLei sucked in a breath of cold air and his face turned ashen. He stood up abruptly, "Ling Tian, isn't this plan of yours too vicious? Do you think that I, DongFang JingLei, am a fool? The Northwest is Tamago and the Southeast is the Xiao family! Both families have the power to destroy our DongFang Family. Y-y-you, do you think that our DongFang Family is cannon fodder? This is basically digging a grave for our DongFang Family! "DongFang JingLei said with grief and indignation.
"Do you think that you will gain so much without sacrificing anything?" Ling Tian looked at him coldly and said, "Not only that, you will have to listen to my orders! The Dongfang Family is extremely ambitious right now. For the sake of your ambitions, all of this will be sacrificed sooner or later! Even if you fail to seize power, your elder brother will still be in charge of the family. Do you think that the efforts you've spent so many years on will not be used? Let me tell you, that will only make things worse! And if I support you in seizing power, these will naturally become your bargaining chips! What if you don't have those chips? Then why should I cooperate with you? Do you think this Young Master has nothing better to do than to do good deeds? "
"Since you will have to sacrifice them sooner or later, I will be your shield. No matter how bad the situation is, I can at least guarantee your survival and the survival of your Dongfang Family! But if you don't have my support, your sacrifices will be in vain! Moreover, even if you are willing to bow down to the major powers and withdraw from the world's conflict, the strength of your Eastern Zhao is still a big fat piece of meat. If the various powers do not cripple and scatter you, how can they be at ease leaving such a sharp steel blade behind them? "
Ling Tian sneered, "Don't tell me you're so naive as to think that you can bring such a huge force back to Linquan?"
DongFang JingLei said anxiously, "But …"
"But!" Ling Tian abruptly interrupted him, "But after you guys help me, as long as I succeed, I will definitely give your DongFang Family a share of the loot. At the very least, I can guarantee your current status or even rule over a region and become a country within a country. As long as you guys don't have any greater ambitions, this isn't an impossible matter. Even if we fail, as long as our two families work together, we can ensure that your Dongfang Family can continue to prosper! It will definitely not end! You should believe that others might not be able to do it, but I, Ling Tian, will definitely be able to do it! "
Ling Tian's words were powerful and resonating! However, DongFang JingLei did not doubt his words. Just based on the fact that this brat was able to create over ten powerful troops in the Northern Wei, Ling Tian had the qualifications to say those words. Furthermore, he was completely capable of doing it! If he could even hide an army, then what was wrong with protecting the direct descendants of a family?
"You can choose not to promise me, but you have to understand that without my help, you will be defeated by DongFang JingTian sooner or later. After all, he is the true Family Head of the DongFang Family and he will definitely not allow you to live! If you were him and had a younger brother like you, you would also not be able to eat or sleep in peace! Don't talk to me about brotherly love. All the descendants of the aristocratic families do not have the qualifications to say those words! "
Ling Tian's gaze was like a bolt of lightning, causing DongFang JingLei to feel a chill run down his spine. "Right now, your strength is far inferior to his. What DongFang JingTian lacks is a legitimate excuse! I'm clear about this point. Your brother DongFang JingTian is clear about this point, but you are even more clear about it! If not, you wouldn't have chosen to flee the moment he started to suspect you. First, you hid in Sky Bearing, then used the excuse of chasing me to appear here! Your purpose was to not give him this excuse no matter what. Even if he had an excuse, it would be impossible for him to do anything to you! However, avoiding a battle isn't a long-term solution! "
Ling Tian looked at DongFang JingLei with pity and said sharply, "Brother JingLei, without my help, what difference would you be from a stray dog?"
"You! Bastard! " DongFang JingLei jumped up in anger. However, under Ling Tian's sharp gaze, he immediately slumped back down.
"Isn't that right? Isn't that right? Hmm? " Ling Tian continued in an overbearing manner, "DongFang JingLei, you are an intelligent person. Why do you have to lie to yourself? If you take a step forward, you will have a lifetime of riches and glory. If you take a step back, you will be in an endless hell, dying without a burial! Furthermore, you will have to die in the hands of a family that you value the most, your brother who is inferior to you! Do you still need to consider this question? "
"I … I need to think about it carefully. Give me some time." DongFang JingLei's forehead was covered in sweat.
Ling Tian stared at him coldly for a long time without saying a word. Finally, he stood up and said, "DongFang JingLei, you also said that I don't have much time! Actually, even if you don't agree to my cooperation today, I won't kill you. However, I feel that having your brother personally kill you is much more pleasing to the eye than having an outsider do it. Furthermore, I can completely disrupt the power of your DongFang Family without even needing to lift a finger, haha … "
After letting out a long laugh, Ling Tian stood up and walked to the door. Suddenly, he stopped and said without turning his head, "I don't mind giving you half a year's time. During this time, you can fully consider. I'm not afraid to tell you that this is also the time I agreed to with the Martial Order Medallion owner. If he is unable to kill me after half a year, the Martial Order Medallion will automatically become invalid! After half a year, I will look for you again. I hope that at that time, you will not disappoint me! "
After saying this, Ling Tian lifted the curtains and disappeared in a flash. Li Xue walked past DongFang JingLei and suddenly smiled, "Will it be the choice to rule the world? Or will there be no corpse left? Whether the DongFang Family can continue to exist in the future depends on this choice! Second Master DongFang, as the saying goes, riches and honor come from danger. Right now, we are still being pursued by the Martial Order Medallion and the Tamago Little Family is eyeing us covetously. This is the time when we need allies. If we wait for our Young Master Ling Tian to resolve these problems, DongFang, even if you kneel in front of him, he will not spare you a second glance. "
"How can the icing on the cake compare to the kindness of sending charcoal in the snow?" Li Xue smiled lightly, but her eyes were emitting a cold aura!
"How can the icing on the cake compare to the kindness of sending charcoal in the snow?" DongFang JingLei's body trembled. As he muttered these two sentences, he couldn't help but fall into a daze.
"In these chaotic times, the most important thing is to know one's own limits! If one is able to see clearly that one has some strength but no hope of unifying the world, then one must choose a side to rely on. This is the best way to protect oneself in these chaotic times. " Li Xue said slowly, "Regardless of which side you choose, you will need to have good foresight and luck. It is just like gambling! Right now, there are only three families that are worthy of you choosing to rely on! Tamago, the Little Family, and my Ling Family. Tamago has a thousand years of history and is deeply rooted in the world. Will they need you to join them? Even if you join us, you won't get the attention you want and the result you want! Furthermore, if you join Tamago, you will still be cannon fodder against the Water of Heavenly Wind! As for the Little Family, they are already wealthy and have the support of Above Heavens. As for your DongFang Family, there is no need to talk about it. Furthermore, even if they accept your alliance, they will still have to solve the problem between you and DongFang JingTian. Do you think that the other two families will do it? "
DongFang JingLei laughed bitterly, "Neither of the two families will do it. Perhaps they will be more willing to help big brother get rid of me? The biggest possibility is that they will just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. They will see who will win in the end. Only the final winner has the right to talk about forming an alliance! "
"That's right," Li Xue smiled, "However, the Ling family still does not have a trustworthy ally. Thus, you being the earliest and most sincere person to join them will definitely be of great importance! However, if you miss this opportunity, my young noble and I will naturally look for the Lei Family or the BeiMing Family. Hahaha … in this world, your DongFang Family is not the only one! At that time, my young noble will no longer have much interest in your DongFang Family. "
DongFang JingLei trembled and said gratefully, "Thank you for your reminder, may I ask who you are …"
"Me?" A trace of sadness appeared in Li Xue's eyes, "I also want to know who I am. Please forgive this young lady for speaking too much. That's all I have to say. Goodbye." With a whoosh, a fragrant wind blew past and the light blue figure disappeared without a trace! Even with DongFang JingLei's eyesight, he was unable to see how this lady disappeared!
