Chapter 12435
Fortunately, the other party chose to back down.
The next question is how to deal with Fan Hong and his gang.
Lin Yi was quite adept at this.
Having dealt with Fan Hong and forced back the restless Liu Aozhi, Lin Yi had finally secured his place in the Final Meeting.
"Five more are needed."
Lin Yi examined the divine fragments and found that he was just one step away from the target of fifty.
If Zhang Fengxiao hadn't suddenly launched his attack, given his personality, he would have kept quiet and made a fortune first, and then dealt with the Four-Zhang Dharma Image.
Now that they're forced into the spotlight, everything they do from now on will become much more complicated.
Of course, it's not entirely a bad thing.
The End may seem like a mixed bag, but if used properly, it can be a force to be reckoned with.
It's not just about establishing a foothold in Tianjun; if used properly, it might increase the speed at which one acquires divine fragments by several times, or even ten times!
The efficiency of an individual is worlds apart from that of a large organization.
However, we still need to carefully plan how to proceed.
Lin Yi quickly decided on a strategy: "Let's get our hands on these last five first."
As is customary, Lin Yi immediately found a disguise and entered the racetrack lobby.
His eyes lit up immediately.
He originally thought that after this incident, Zhang Fengxiao would no longer try to dominate the code word track as before.
In fact, Zhang Fengxiao had already withdrawn from the End of the Association from the moment he took over, showing exceptional sensibility.
However, this is clearly just a superficial understanding.
At this moment, all three code word tracks have been seized. It's obvious without even looking that it must be Zhang Fengxiao's doing!
This is an obvious provocation.
"Aren't you the Emperor of Termination? Even if you control the Termination Society, what can you do to me if I take over your Code Race track?"
Zhang Fengxiao never imagined that his actions were exactly what Lin Yi wanted.
Lin Yi couldn't be happier if he worked for him.
If he hadn't pulled this stunt, Lin Yi would have had to put in at least twice the effort to earn the next five Godhood fragments.
Soon, a new code word track emerged.
The path to becoming a renowned doctor is paved with the goal of becoming a "King of Medicine."
Lin Yi understood immediately; his fellow countrymen from the secular world certainly wouldn't treat him unfairly.
While he was creating a legend on the racetrack, Yang Qing'er arrived alone at the gate of the Heavenly Palace.
"I want to report it!"
"Fan Hong, the deputy leader of the Rooster Group, along with five experts from the Tiger Group, were killed by the End Emperor. The killing took place at the headquarters of the End Society!"
These words caused an instant tremor throughout the Heavenly Palace.
If it were just an ordinary murder case, even if the number of dead were ten times greater, it wouldn't qualify for discussion in the Heavenly Palace.
But when it involves the members of the Twelve Heavenly Palace Groups, especially Fan Hong, the deputy leader of the Rooster Group, the whole situation is completely different.
This is a blatant provocation against the Heavenly Palace!
The Tiangong Roundtable Conference was immediately convened, bringing together leaders from all sides.
Stepping into such a prestigious event for the first time, and being scrutinized by various bigwigs, Yang Qing'er's mind went completely blank.
She considers herself someone special, and the only difference between her and those big shots is her background.
Given the chance, she is definitely no less capable than these Heavenly Palace bigwigs!
One day, I too will be able to enter the Heavenly Palace and occupy a seat at the Round Table.
Yang Qing'er has always thought this way.
But now, she realizes she was overthinking things.
Let alone being on equal footing with these Heavenly Palace bigwigs, she couldn't even stand up in front of them, let alone maintain her own consciousness!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yang Qing'er was completely dumbfounded.
Liu Aozhi frowned slightly and coughed lightly: "What do you know? Just say it directly. Don't hide anything or exaggerate anything."
As he spoke, a divine sense invaded Yang Qing'er's sea of consciousness.
Yang Qing'er suddenly realized what was happening and stammered, "Just now, the End Emperor killed Deputy Team Leader Fan Hong and five experts from the Tiger Tiger Team."
"What evidence do you have?"
Li Chengyuan, the head of the Li family, frowned.
The other Heavenly Palace leaders also looked at them with scrutiny and skepticism.
Yang Qing'er quickly said, "I saw Deputy Team Leader Fan lead people in, but they haven't come out yet. We'll know if we send someone to investigate."
Li Chengyuan raised an eyebrow and said, "There's no substantial evidence whatsoever. You've just made baseless accusations, and all of us have been called here for a meeting? Steward Liu, isn't that a bit too frivolous?"
Liu Aozhi narrowed his eyes slightly: "Although there is no readily available evidence, the aura of Fan Hong and the five members of the Yin Hu group did indeed disappear at the Termination Society headquarters, and this has been verified."
He didn't intend to directly confront Lin Yi, but that didn't mean he would give up easily.
Through official channels, they created some trouble for Lin Yi and, incidentally, tested him.
For him, it was just a matter of talking.
Why not?
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a commanding presence spoke up: "What are a deputy leader of the Rooster Group and five Tiger Group experts doing at the Termination Society headquarters?"
Liu Aozhi's eyelids twitched.
The one who spoke was Cao Mang, the head of the Cao family.
When he was competing for the position of Governor of Tianjun, it just so happened that Cao Mang went into seclusion; otherwise, the position of Governor of Tianjun would not have been his.
One influential figure chimed in with a question: "This combination does seem a bit odd; it feels like they have ulterior motives."
Seeing everyone looking at him, Liu Aozhi could only reply, "We'll know exactly what they're doing once we find them. The key now is to find them first."
After a pause, Liu Aozhi glanced at Yang Qing'er and said, "What else do you know? Tell me quickly."
Yang Qing'er quickly said, "As far as I know, the Emperor of Termination used inside information about the racetrack as bait to lure and gather a large number of ignorant people."
"His goal is not just to fleece people; he has a deeper intention."
"He wants to win over and control the second generation of aristocratic families, seize the opportunity to infiltrate the Heavenly Palace, overthrow the existing order, and become the ruler of the Heavenly County!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
If someone says this on the street, it's a complete joke, and they won't pay any attention to it.
But if these words were spoken at the Heavenly Palace Round Table, it would be a completely different story.
The key point is that, given the momentum of the End Society's development, it might actually have that capability!
Liu Aozhi tapped the table: "Li Tianguo, Cao Luoshen, Zhao Ning, and Kong Qianqiu, along with a group of second-generation scions, have gathered quite a few people without us even realizing it."
At first, no one took it seriously, but as he pointed them out one by one, they all broke out in a cold sweat.
These are indeed second-generation descendants, but they cannot fully represent the will of their families.
The problem is that these people are all core members of the family, and their attitudes largely represent the attitudes of their respective families.
Once these powerful families truly set their sights on something, they will be bound together through the end.
The mere thought of that scene sent chills down everyone's spine. (End of Chapter)
