"Betray him! But... I want the Zheng Family to be wiped out..."
Nalan Zhengqi said coldly after a long silence.
"If the Alliance Leader gives Gao Lun a chance, Gao Lun pleads to lead people to annihilate Zheng Guang." Gao Lun was the first to express the desire to destroy Zheng Guang. The reason he joined the Assassin Alliance was because Zheng Guang chased him, causing him to be saved by Nalan Zhengqi. He had no way to repay Nalan Zhengqi, so he could only join the Assassin Alliance, hoping to do something for them.
In the past, he thought that joining the Assassin Alliance might help him latch onto a powerful ally, but he didn't expect that there would be too many experts in the Assassin Alliance, which made him feel like he had no status at all.
The reason Nalan Zhengqi wanted to kill Zheng Guang was because the Jade Seal was not obtained by Gao Lun, which led to his people digging the tunnel for so long, only to be exploited by the Dragon Team.
Sha Po Lang, Celestial Vault, and others quickly understood why Nalan Zhengqi wanted to kill Zheng Guang.
There were two reasons to kill Zheng Guang. The first was that Nalan Zhengqi was angry that the Jade Seal was not obtained by Gao Lun's people, causing him to lose the entire Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb. According to his conservative estimate, Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb had antiques worth at least several billion, but instead of getting the antiques, he had to compensate the Dragon Team with billions of RMB. How unpleasant was that? So Nalan Zhengqi needed someone to vent his anger on.
The second reason was to give Gao Lun an explanation, so that Gao Lun would do more for the Assassin Alliance in the future. Although Gao Lun was only at the initial stage of the Innate Realm, he was not too old, and might have the chance to breakthrough to another realm in the future.
No matter what force, they wouldn't mind having more innate experts, and the Assassin Alliance was no exception, even if these innate experts weren't extremely powerful.
"No need for you to go, Ziwei. When you have a task in Peng City in a while, take care of him along the way!" Nalan Zhengqi ordered coldly.
"Yes, Alliance Leader," the old woman Ziwei nodded in agreement.
However, at this moment, Nalan Zhengqi's phone rang, and he took out the phone.
This phone was encrypted, and any call that came through wouldn't be eavesdropped on or dialed by mistake, so Nalan Zhengqi answered it directly.
After the call connected, there was no sound from the other side. Nalan Zhengqi said hello.
"Haha! Nalan Zhengqi." After Nalan Zhengqi said hello, a hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone, but this laughter had a hint of sadness, as if seeing through everything in the world.
"Who are you?" Nalan Zhengqi's body stood upright suddenly. This phone was always used under the identity of the Assassin Alliance Leader, not under his public identity as the Martial Arts Alliance Leader. His identity in the Assassin Alliance was known only to a few people, or those who had past dealings with him, like Gao Lun's father, an expert even older than Nalan Zhengqi, who knew both his public and hidden identities.
Now this person on the phone knew that he was secretly Nalan Zhengqi, making his public identity obvious.
"Don't worry, we're old acquaintances for decades, I won't disclose your identity." The voice on the other end of the phone said cheerfully.
"Who exactly are you?" Nalan Zhengqi's voice turned cold as he asked.
"Dragon Soul." The two words came from the other end of the phone, but they put a lot of pressure on Nalan Zhengqi. Dragon Soul, Dragon Soul, besides the Dragon Head and all the hidden experts in the shadows, his strength was the strongest.
He was the one who blocked Nalan Zhengqi and others from attacking the Wang Family of Nanling, single-handedly defeating over ten innate experts from the Assassin Alliance.
"You... what do you want with me?" Though Nalan Zhengqi was publicly the Martial Arts Alliance Leader and secretly the feared Assassin Alliance Leader, Nalan Zhengqi naturally showed a humble demeanor when faced with Dragon Soul's call.
"Nothing much, just calling to chat and prevent you from wandering around and getting into trouble," Dragon Soul laughed as if chatting with an old friend, but the implication in the words seemed to be telling Nalan Zhengqi to consider their Dragon Team before acting, or they might take action if too many offenses occur.
"I'm not wandering around." Nalan Zhengqi replied briefly.
Celestial Vault and the others quietly listened, wondering why Dragon Soul was calling Nalan Zhengqi today.
"Haha, it's best not to wander. Oh! By the way, I forgot to remind you of one thing," Dragon Soul seemed to remember something as he spoke.
"What is it?" Nalan Zhengqi grew a bit nervous, fearing he might have crossed the Dragon Team's bottom line...
Celestial Vault and the others were holding their breath, listening intently, as if fearing they'd miss a segment…
"I'll recite something for you to listen to carefully," Dragon Soul now showed the attitude of being the boss, meaning that Nalan Zhengqi and others should listen attentively.
"I'm listening."
"There is a Dragon Team's pending Dragon Soul team member in Peng City, currently weak and unsuitable to join the Dragon Soul team. Hope all forces won't prey on the weak, or the Dragon Team will exert its full strength to annihilate them..." Dragon Soul said with a laugh.
"Dragon Soul team member?" Nalan Zhengqi's eyes narrowed. A Dragon Soul team member, under Dragon Soul, whose strength surpasses the Innate Realm, such a person exists in Peng City.
Moreover, it's a Dragon Soul team member who hasn't matured yet. Nalan Zhengqi could imagine that if they accidentally killed this prospective team member of the Dragon Team, the Dragon Team's violent institution would annihilate all of them.
The Dragon Team's pending team member's identity is so noble that it's practically a death exemption card. Whoever touches him, the Dragon Team will strike back at them.
Nalan Zhengqi recalled thirty years ago, a young man named He Tongtian, who was a pending Dragon Soul team member. But unexpectedly, he was killed by the Qiu Family, and in anger, the Dragon Team exterminated the family that killed Tongtian.
The Dragon Team, usually discreet, but if any force offends it, its sharp teeth will viciously bite the offender half-dead or even to death...
"Exactly." Dragon Soul laughed: "Alright, I've said all that needs to be said. It's up to you to figure it out!"
After finishing, Dragon Soul hung up the phone. As for the hundreds of tons of gold, there was no need for him to pursue it. As long as the people in the Assassin Alliance weren't foolish, they would respectfully offer it up.
Once Dragon Soul hung up, Nalan Zhengqi and the others all looked grim. According to Dragon Soul's instructions, it seemed that there was a pending team member of the Dragon Team in Peng City, and if they acted against Peng City, they might provoke this evil star.
Sha Po Lang said: "Zhengqi, why don't we avoid meddling with Peng City for now and let the boss's people take their time?"
Celestial Vault followed up: "Alliance Leader, the Vice Alliance Leader is right. Currently, we don't know who the pending Dragon Team member is in Peng City, so it's better to leave Peng City's matters alone for the time being, lest we accidentally encounter this evil god."
