It wasn’t that there hadn’t been any twists and turns in the past, but there had never been a time like this, where there had been no warning!
This was the truly terrifying part.
His instincts told him that Lin Yi had something to do with this incident, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t find any traces of Lin Yi’s actions, including Gu Jiumu’s.
The whole thing seemed to have happened naturally. There was no sign at all, but it was so logical.
For the first time, Kong Shenglin felt a chill that he had not felt for a long time.
He couldn’t see any traces, but it didn’t mean that there were no traces. It was just that the other party’s scheme was too brilliant, so brilliant that even he couldn’t see through the puzzle.
An unprecedented sense of danger arose spontaneously.
Everyone looked at each other. For the first time, they felt undisguised anger from Kong Shenglin.
But thinking about it, it made sense. If he lost to Gu Jiumu in the voting, then it would be fine. After all, he was an old rival of a top-notch giant.
But now, even Lin Yi could climb up to him, the number one person. This was intolerable!
When everyone calmed down, Kong Shu cleared his throat and analyzed calmly,” Strictly speaking, Luoxi Liu’s rebellion had a reason. If we push him out because of this, I’m afraid it’ll be exactly what Zhonggu Jiumu and Lin Yi want.”
” Therefore, I believe that the most important thing now is to maintain internal stability. We must win over Luoxi Sect again.”
“With that bird of a face of his, you still want to win him over?” Xi Rulai said unhappily. Our strongest faction doesn’t care about face. Wouldn’t we be laughed at if word got out?”
“Uncle Xi, please calm down.”
” Luoxi Liu is still wavering,” Kong Shu said confidently.” The previous voting was obviously done on impulse.”
“If we don’t take advantage of this window to stabilize him, the other side might really take advantage of the situation to pull him over. At that time, the situation will really be passive.”
“When the time comes, even if our strongest faction is powerful, we won’t be able to withstand such an impact.”
Everyone was silent.
Kong Shu wasn’t exaggerating. Even though the strongest faction was at its peak, if a core member like Luo Xiliu really rebelled and joined Gu Jiumu’s faction, then the situation would really change.
The difference between four core members and three core members might sound like only one person, but their actual influence was completely different.
Especially now that Lin Yi was in the picture, the board of directors had entered the era of the Big Ten.
Even if the stable four votes could not guarantee victory like in the past, as long as they were handled properly, they could still influence the overall situation.
On the other hand, if they only had three votes left, they wouldn’t be able to control the situation, and Gu Jiumu’s faction might even turn the tables on them.
After all, the outline of the Alliance of Triangles was starting to show.
“Continue,” Kong Shenglin said in a deep voice.
” Of course.” Kong Shu nodded.” Other than Luoxi Sect, there are two other levels that we must pay close attention to.”
“Firstly, it’s those neutral giants.”
” Now is the time for them to wait and see. We need to give them some benefits to win them over.”
” At the very least, we must ensure that they won’t misjudge the situation and side with Gu Jiumu.”
The so-called neutral giant was not without ambition or standpoint.
The reason why they wanted to remain neutral in name was not only because they did not want to be tied to the strongest faction or Gu Jiumu’s chariot, but more importantly, they wanted to use this to boost their own status and make it easier for them to gain benefits from both sides.
Under normal circumstances, the strongest faction and Gu Jiumu’s faction would form a balance of power, which was what they wanted to see the most.
Because only then would they be able to maximize their benefits.
However, once the situation became clear, they could not rule out the possibility of them choosing a side. Luoxi Liu’s betrayal might become the first domino in their eyes.
Now, the strongest faction needed to stabilize those neutral giants more than ever.
Kong Shenglin, Xi Rulai, and Nie Liangchen looked at each other, but they didn’t have any objections.
The strongest faction had a large family and business. Other than Luoxi Liu, every family had a deep foundation. If they only gave up a portion of their resources, it would not be a problem.
Vaguely, everyone felt a little awkward.
Previously, one of the reasons why Luo Xiliu had rebelled was that they were unwilling to compensate him with resources. Now that something had happened, if they wanted to make up for the impact of the rift, they would need to pay more than ten times the amount of resources that Luo Xiliu had requested.
If this matter were to spread, the strongest factions would probably be laughed at for a year.
” There’s only one level left,” Kong Shu continued,” and that is public opinion.”
At their level, their understanding of public opinion was naturally far superior to that of ordinary people. They knew that the seemingly useless public opinion could somehow influence the overall situation.
If the public opinion was completely on the side that was unfavorable to them, it was very likely that it would affect the progress of the situation.
Xi Rulai smiled confidently.” This is very simple. We just need to find someone to create hype online. This is our strength.”
This was not because he was conceited. In this aspect, the strongest faction indeed had a natural advantage.
It was very difficult to completely control public opinion, especially online public opinion, which could change rapidly.
But on the other hand, it was easy to confuse the public and guide the pace and direction of public opinion.
As long as they could create a large enough volume in a short period of time and flood the internet, they could affect the public’s perception to a large extent. Even if there might be a reversal in the future, at least at this stage, it would not be a bad thing.
He could even use one to burn the fire on the other side.
All of this was easy for the strongest faction that had both enormous resources and the intelligence community.
” Yes.” Kong Shu nodded.” It’s not enough just to create hype on the Internet. We still need to take action to achieve twice the result with half the effort.”
“What operation?” Xi Rulai and Nie Liangchen exchanged glances.
Kong Shu smiled deeply and didn’t answer. He dipped his finger in the tea and wrote a name on the table.
Yi Jinglun.
As the closed-door meeting of the strongest faction ended, the direction of public opinion on the entire network of the Divine Kingdom on land suddenly changed. It no longer focused on the internal strife of the strongest faction, but on Yi Jinglun.
In an instant, the new Deputy Director of the Alliance Security Bureau, who had yet to take office, became a celebrity on the Internet.
With the help of the behind-the-scenes forces, Yi Jinglun’s personal information, including his past deeds, especially the so-called black materials, became the target of the entire Internet..
