In a villa on the outskirts of Shenyang, Zuo Lin wore a faint smile of surprise on his face. The rhythm of his fingers tapping on the table sounded very cheerful. His slightly slender but incomparably bright eyes stared thoughtfully at the constantly changing data on the projection screen as he said to himself, "Qin Fen? Interesting, these young people, who have been educated since childhood, actually chose to go against their families for him. It's so interesting, I didn't expect Qin Fen to have such rare leadership and affinity. If such a talent is under my control, then in the future … "
"You, have no future."
The door was pushed open slowly as a cold murderous aura suddenly descended from the North Pole to the equator. In the slightly dimly lit corridor, a young man was holding a scarlet spear in his hand! A pungent smell of blood emerged from the tip of the spear as bright red blood slowly dripped from the tip of the spear to the ground.
In the shadows, the brown eyes of the young man flickered with an indescribable fierceness. His body was clearly spewing out scorching hot True Qi, but his entire aura was incomparably cold. He was like a lone wolf that had been starving for several days in the wilderness, causing people to shudder when they looked at him.
A murderous aura swept the entire room!
Zuo Lin, sitting in a comfortable office chair, gently turned from side to side as he propped his chin with his palm. He looked at Mourad, whose appearance was obviously of West Asian descent, with great interest, "One of Qin Fen's best friends? I didn't expect you to come so fast, and I didn't expect you to find me. Although I didn't hide myself, it's still a little interesting that you found me in less than twenty hours. "
Snap, Zuo Lin snapped his fingers and smiled brightly, "You came at the right time. You came to kill me for Qin Fen? What a touching friendship! I just don't know how much this friendship of yours means in Qin Fen's eyes. I really hope that it has an extremely high value … "
Zuo Lin tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying with a smile, "Although this is impossible. But since you are here, I will at least give you a lesson in life. The safest thing in this world is the involvement of interests. As for friends? This is the most useless and the most unsafe thing in the world! I have seen too many 'friends'. They are invisible and can't be touched. Usually, they will shout slogans like 'I am your brother' and 'I am moved because of you'. But when it's time for them to pay, even if they only pay a dime a day, they will choose to retreat! This is what friends are like! "
Mourad stared at Zuo Lin indifferently and asked, "Are these your last words?"
Zuo Lin smiled and waved his wrist. Without looking at Mourad, he said, "Catch him alive."
The two statue-like martial artists standing behind Zuo Lin swayed their bodies and simultaneously pounced at Mourad, who was standing outside the door. Their fierce auras instantly shattered the sharp, piercingly cold air that Mourad had unleashed when he opened the door.
The breaths of the three martial dao masters intertwined in an instant. Zuo Lin's legs shook the ground, and his body flew out of the villa like a catkin without any resistance.
Zuo Lin knew very well what kind of damage a battle between martial dao masters could cause. He crossed his arms around his chest and smiled appreciatively at everything. Looking at the villa that had been turned into ruins and the three martial dao masters fighting each other, he nodded frequently, "Qin Fen, I am looking forward to your next performance. Will you be smart enough to sacrifice this young martial dao master and not come to the rescue, or will you be stupid enough to give me an excuse to come to the rescue? "
The once expensive villa had turned into a pile of ruins in the blink of an eye. Traces of the battle between martial dao masters were everywhere. The ground seemed to have been plowed back and forth several times by dozens of hand-guided tractors.
The police were doing the clean-up and investigation work, but the owner of this place had long disappeared without a trace. People could only look at this amazing destructive ability and praise again and again. Martial dao masters were indeed powerful war machines.
The Sacred Martial Hall's special helicopter landed slowly over a pier in Hawaii. Qin Fen and the others filed out and looked up at the glaring sun.
As someone who had entered the Sacred Martial Hall for the second time, Qin Fen no longer enjoyed the privilege of taking the Sacred Martial Hall's special plane to the designated destination he wanted to enter. Yang Lie and the others were also slightly implicated. They were also thrown on the ground in Hawaii and were no longer transported.
"Where can we find Zuo Lin? Where is Zuo Lin now? And where is Mourad now? "
Everyone looked at each other and saw the same question in each other's eyes.
Whether it was Yang Lie or Solomon, everyone used to have the support of the family behind them. Whether it was money or information, they didn't need to find it themselves. As long as they wanted to know something, they could just make a phone call. As long as the family could find the information, it would be sent to them immediately.
For example, where was Zuo Lin's current location? As long as he waited nearby, he would be able to intercept Mourad, who was on his way to kill Lin Li.
Yang Lie smiled bitterly. Solomon's poker face, which rarely changed its expression in a hundred years, also showed a bitter smile at this time. After rebelling against the family, only then did he realize that apart from martial strength, there were too few things that he could do alone.
Caesar smiled. His smile wasn't a bitter smile, but a genuine happy smile. Others were the future successors of the family or important pillars of the future, but he was different!
Caesar! The true successor of the Alexander Family in Europe. Although he might only have less than 20 hours left as the helmsman, at least at this moment, he could still mobilize the resources of the entire Alissanda Family. It wouldn't be difficult for him to find out where Zuo Lin would be living in the future.
At the very least, it could be calculated! It was a rough estimate of the possible locations. Besides, in addition to the news about Zuo Lin, he could also find news about Mourad.
"Dear Patriarch Caesar, do you regret losing the huge Alexander Family now that you are contacting us? Do you no longer want to continue fighting against the family for that boring friendship? "
On the projection screen, Caesar's aunt still looked young. Her long blonde hair was coiled up high like a noble lady. Her deep cleavage was particularly eye-catching as she leaned forward slightly.
"Dear aunt, my friendship is not boring. As for the Alexander Family, I, Caesar, can still afford to lose it. In the future, I will become a divine beast martial artist. In the eyes of a divine beast martial artist, the Alexander Family is nothing. To be honest, it was the Alexander Family that lost a future divine beast martial artist and several future divine beast martial artists because of your foolish view of interests. "
"Oh hehe …" Caesar's aunt raised her hand to cover her mouth and chuckled like an aristocrat. The mountains on her chest trembled as she laughed. She raised her chin slightly, "My dear nephew, when can divine beast martial artists be mass-produced? Since you are not here to tell me that you are going back on your word, then why do you still want to contact the family? "
"Divine beasts can't be mass-produced, but they can be produced in a concentrated burst." Caesar raised his eyebrows high. His straight waist, coupled with his confident expression and momentum, suddenly became tall in the eyes of Caesar's aunt, "I am contacting you this time because I am still the patriarch, and I still have the power to command the family. Now, I order the family to immediately mobilize all forces to find the whereabouts of two people for me. One is Zuo Lin, and the other is a soldier from West Asia who once entered the Sacred Martial Hall to train. He is the fifteen-star martial dao master Mourad who left the Sacred Martial Hall not long ago. "
Caesar's aunt's beautiful red lips evoked a faint smile, "Okay, dear patriarch, we will inform you as soon as we find the news. Of course, the premise is that you are still the patriarch of our Alexander Family at that time. "
Caesar suddenly realized that he had done a very stupid thing. When the entire family knew that he could not control this family, those who put interests above everything else would almost immediately fall to his aunt's side, right? Although they could not resist the orders of the current patriarch, it was still possible to delay and slack off.
As for the current patriarch's punishment? Caesar smiled. After more than twenty hours, those punishments would become waste paper. Those who had been punished might be promoted because of this punishment. Today's punishment order would be the capital for their future promotion.
Qin Fen smiled. Although he had martial strength, he wasn't much better than a blind man. Large forces still had various functions. It was also because of this that Elysium and Inferno on Saturn didn't only have martial dao masters. Therefore, they had produced all kinds of talents, such as the Mysterious Daughter of Nine Skies who stayed at the foot of the Qilin Mountain for a long time.
"Dragon Hall, may be a good choice."
Qin Fen thought with rapt attention. According to Ma Jun Tie's introduction, the development of Dragon Hall was extremely fast. Under the integration of Zhang Xiangyang, Dragon Hall was no longer a simple gathering place of martial dao, but a gathering place of diverse talents.
Network hackers, financial people, military talents, and all kinds of talents had gathered at Dragon Hall for various reasons.
A crisp phone ring interrupted Qin Fen's contemplation. The pop-up projection screen showed a young soldier with the rank of colonel on his shoulder, the rising star of the army, Colonel Zuo Lin!
Looking at Zuo Lin in the projection, Qin Fen had to admit that this young military senior, who came from a prestigious family and had a high degree of attention in the army, was very radiant today, as if he had encountered some happy event.
"Qin Fen, I wonder if you are still busy with the exam questions?" Zuo Lin looked at Qin Fen with a smile, "Not long ago, I received a gift. After careful consideration, I found that this gift may be more suitable for you, so I decided to give it to you. I wonder if you're interested? "
Zuo Lin spoke to himself, his palms gently clapping each other, and the camera slowly turned to the corner of the house.
Mourad! His whole body was stained with blood, and there were at least dozens of knife wounds, fist and foot injuries. His expression was weary, his arms were restrained from behind, and his whole body was trampled on the ground, unable to move. The mottled scarlet spear was inserted into the ground next to his neck.
The camera returned to Zuo Lin's body again. He gently spread his hands left and right, his expression of concern with absolute confidence and happiness, "How is it? Lieutenant Colonel Qin Fen, are you satisfied with this gift? "
Qin Fen stared at Zuo Lin silently and asked, "Name your price."
Zuo Lin snapped his fingers and gave a thumbs up, raising his eyebrows with a smile that only a victor would have, "Smart, smart! Qin Fen, do you know? It is because of this that I like you even more. "
Qin Fen's chest rose and fell gently. He slowly shook his head from side to side and replied with a wooden face, "I'm sorry, I don't like you. Just say it, what are your conditions? "
Zuo Lin propped his chin with both hands and carefully observed Qin Fen through the screen. Negotiation was a very deep knowledge. He only had one item in his hand, so he only had one real opportunity to name a price. If the other party immediately agreed after he named a price, it would mean that the price he offered was too low. It would also mean that the negotiation had failed even though he had gotten the benefits.
If the price was too high, he would be rejected harshly. Zuo Lin felt that it would lose his calculation ability. This time, the price must exceed the bottom line that Qin Fen could accept, but it would not make Qin Fen break the negotiation without even talking. He must let the other party talk back and create a situation of bargaining. Only then could he really touch the other party's bottom line bit by bit, where was it, and produce the greatest benefits.
Negotiation was another kind of battle. A brilliant negotiator could completely subdue an unruly opponent at the negotiating table, thus turning the opponent into his own subordinate, reaching the highest realm of subduing the enemy without fighting.
Where was Qin Fen's bottom line? Zuo Lin didn't dare to be too sure. As a martial dao master, a martial artist usually had his own glory and dignity. He could only use various means to wear down Qin Fen bit by bit, and finally make him his own! If Qin Fen directly asked the other party to submit to him, perhaps Qin Fen would immediately turn hostile and sacrifice Mourad.
Will Mourad be sacrificed? Zuo Lin felt a little bitter in his heart. Mourad had indeed come to assassinate him. Under normal circumstances, Zuo Lin would have just killed Mourad directly. But even if Mourad's family didn't say anything on the surface, they would still be dissatisfied in private.
The art of negotiation was to force the other party to the point where they could no longer retreat and then reach a deal. It would be foolish to still compete when one had already retreated to the limit.
Now that the families of the various states had issued orders to their descendants, it was not just a simple exchange of interests. The great families were also forced to choose a side because of the huge benefits on Saturn. It made them understand that it was foolish to have a foot on both sides of the fence and the idea of benefiting from both sides.
The families of the major states also understood Zuo Lin's character very well. Naturally, they knew that if they were to have a foot on both sides of the fence, Zuo Lin, who had an absolute advantage, would definitely settle accounts on Saturn after he won. At that time, they would lose a lot of benefits if they simply choked their necks.
Killing Mourad might really touch the interests of West Asia's Mourad family. Smart people would not casually set up unnecessary opponents for themselves.
As for Qin Fen? Zuo Lin had never regarded him as a real opponent. Qin Fen was just a wild horse with great wildness that was very difficult to tame.
When a wild horse was tamed, it would naturally become the best subordinate and the best assistant.
Qin Fen's face was expressionless. Zuo Lin's brow was deeply furrowed. He couldn't see through this young martial dao master. Everything that he had planned to do before the communication was suddenly impossible at this moment. His brain was doing all kinds of possible calculations quickly. Finally, he slowly stretched out a finger, looking as if he had the pearl of wisdom in his hands. "If you want Mourad to live, then you have to withdraw from the military's election on Saturn."
"Okay!"
Qin Fen stared at Zuo Lin. There was no hesitation in his words. The speed of his answer stunned Zuo Lin. Mourad, who was in the corner of the projection, was lying on the ground. A trace of absent-mindedness flashed across his eyes. Even the martial dao master who was suppressing him had a stunned look on his face.
This answer was too unexpected. This answer was too fast. The martial dao master who was suppressing Mourad even suspected that Qin Fen was lying. But looking at his firm eyes that could break iron, it was clear that he would keep his word.
Zuo Lin felt that his jaw had loosened a little. He looked at Qin Fen with his mouth agape and tongue tied. This condition was made after much consideration.
Zuo Lin believed that Qin Fen, as a martial dao master, was very clear about how huge the benefits of Saturn were. Zuo Lin had never expected Qin Fen to agree to this condition.
Zuo Lin had considered it for a long time. A young martial dao master like Mourad was indeed of great value. But a martial dao master was still too small compared to the benefits of Saturn!
Standing in the same position, Zuo Lin believed that his judgment was absolutely as unhesitant as Qin Fen's answer, except that the answer was absolutely the opposite.
Zuo Lin didn't expect Qin Fen to accept this condition. He just wanted to use this condition as a basis for negotiation. Even if Qin Fen didn't give up the right to fight for Saturn in the end, he could still fight for greater benefits in other aspects.
Of course, the reason why Zuo Lin put Mourad by his side and let him watch this negotiation was to hear Qin Fen's unhesitant rejection of the condition. Zuo Lin wanted to strike a blow to Mourad's idea and make him lose confidence in Qin Fen. At that time, Zuo Lin could play some tricks and naturally take Mourad in.
Mourad, a young martial dao master! Just this point alone made Zuo Lin feel that Mourad was very valuable. At this time, he would use Qin Fen's refusal to make Mourad feel despair and sadness. This would be the moment when Mourad's spirit was at its weakest. Just like a person who couldn't swim falling into a deep river, even if it was just a straw, Mourad would desperately grab it and become the most loyal subordinate from then on!
Mourad wasn't alone! Zuo Lin believed that as long as he took Mourad in, it wouldn't be considered as going against the family. A martial dao master who admitted his mistake and returned to the family would still be welcomed by the family.
Zuo Lin had calculated everything for Mourad after he joined the family. He would train him hard and let him take over the Mourad Family. By then, the Mourad Family of West Asia would actually become his vassal, which would be a lot stronger than any interest alliance.
Zuo Lin looked at Qin Fen, puzzled. He had calculated everything. First, he would use the rejection to subdue Mourad. Then, he would gain the upper hand through negotiation, paving the way for him to subdue Qin Fen in the future.
However … Zuo Lin felt that the answer was extremely absurd. He even wanted to laugh. But before the smile could enter his facial muscles, he didn't feel like laughing at all. Because the answer was really not funny! Although he had obtained huge benefits from the negotiation, Qin Fen's answer had exceeded his expectations. He didn't know whether he was impulsive or brainless.
Suddenly, Zuo Lin felt a little angry. He hated the feeling that he had controlled the whole situation, even the future, but it was completely destroyed by someone all of a sudden. He hated the plan that should have been able to subdue Mourad, but it had unexpectedly turned into this situation. He hated Qin Fen's way of thinking that violated the maximization of benefits even more.
If his position was swapped with Qin Fen, Zuo Lin believed that after he refused, he would make a long speech full of passionate and heroic words to move the captive Mourad, making Mourad feel that Qin Fen was a hero of the generation who would do great things!
Zuo Lin had even calculated this in advance. If Qin Fen really refused and made a speech full of passionate and heroic words to explain to Mourad, then Zuo Lin would certainly throw out another speech that he had prepared, making Qin Fen look even worse. Even the children of the family around Qin Fen would feel a chill in their hearts.
However, Qin Fen's answer was really too unconventional! Anyone who could calculate benefits should know that choosing to refuse at this time was the smartest choice to maximize benefits.
There wasn't even the slightest bit of hesitation! Zuo Lin thought in his heart, Even if you hesitate for three to five seconds, I am confident that I can use my unparalleled eloquence to make Mourad feel bad for you. Even if I can't subdue Mourad immediately, I can still plant a seed in his heart.
Qin Fen stared coldly at Zuo Lin, a trace of astonishment flashing across his eyes. Then, he shifted his gaze back to the injured and suppressed Mourad. Finally, he said calmly, "Let him go."
Let him go!? Zuo Lin furrowed his brow. It seems that the condition I just proposed is wrong. Qin Fen's bottom line is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. If I continue to propose conditions now, I should be able to get more benefits. It's just that …
Zuo Lin hesitated. His fingers tapped the table lightly. As a superior, he had to keep his word. In particular, if he wanted to subdue Qin Fen, he must at least show enough credibility at this time. If he didn't even have this bit of bearing, even if he took Qin Fen under his account in the future, it would not be his original intention to take him in.
Let him go immediately!? Zuo Lin was very reluctant. Although he was confident that he would eventually take Qin Fen in, the opportunity before him was indeed a rare opportunity. As long as he continued to propose conditions, he would have a hundred percent chance to expand his benefits. The only drawback was that he was a bit shameless.
Zuo Lin was very clear that no one present was a fool. Everyone could hear that the condition just now was already unfair to Qin Fen. They could also hear that the condition just now was one hundred percent to exchange for Mourad. If he added more conditions, everyone would be able to see that he was shameless.
"Cough … cough …"
Zuo Lin raised his fist and put it in front of his lips, coughing a few times to cover up his shamelessness. Then, he said with a slightly lowered tone, "Very well, then we can talk about the second condition."
