“I’ll specially bring you to the Federation venue tomorrow. When the time comes, there will definitely be danger everywhere. I’ll arrange for someone to protect you at all times.”
“Then i’ll see you tomorrow.”
After the simple call ended, Shan Yue returned to the laboratory and called Yu Sen and Luo Xin, who were still researching, over.
“It’s indeed been hard on the two of you during this period of time. You’ve really done your best for the future of the Federation’s Central City. Especially Boss Yu. You haven’t even stepped out of the Shan Corporation. You don’t care about your company at all.”
There was obvious gratitude in Shan Yue’s smile. “However, we’ve finally endured such a day. The press conference will be held tomorrow. At that time, i’ll bring the two of you along and let all the people witness the results of our efforts.”
“President Shan, you’re too polite. In the end, the two of us didn’t play any substantial role. The antidote to the virus was basically developed by you alone, so the person who should be grateful is actually you.”
Yu Sen knew very well that his and Luo Xin’s strength was worlds apart from Shan Yue’s. “I hope that after the crisis in Federation City is successfully over, you can be an advisor to our pharmaceutical company.”
“No problem. That’s a small matter.” Shan Yue readily agreed to this matter. “We’ll gather at the Federation venue tomorrow. If the two of you don’t have anything important to do today, go back first so that you can rest early.”
While Shan Yue was talking to the two of them, in a room in a secret base, an old man with graying temples was standing at the door, his hand hesitant to knock. After a few seconds of hesitation, he knocked on the door. With three knocks, an old voice came from inside. “The door’s open. Come in yourself.”
If Shan Yue were here, she would definitely be able to recognize both of them. The old man who knocked on the door was Huo Jue, who treated her the best among all the elders, and the person in the room was the First Elder.
The First Elder’s status in the organization was second only to Ji Chen and Ji Yun. He was a person with both qualifications and authority. Whether it was people or things, he was very strict. He would never be lenient to people for any reason.
“Huo Jue, how’s the matter I asked you to do? As our power grows, we can’t stay here forever. We have to find a place to settle down.” The First Elder’s low voice sounded. “So the outcome of this matter concerns the future of the organization. Do you understand why I’m handing it to you?”
“I understand, First Elder. Ever since the explosion half a year ago, the Third Elder and the Sixth Elder have all died in the Federation City. One-third of the six elders have been lost in an instant. Our faction has been weakened like never before.”
Huo Jue’s attitude was also very serious. He could naturally tell what occasion this was. “Therefore, 1 will definitely try my best to control the Zhou family and use their strength to strive to move the organization to the Federation’s Central City.”
After hearing Huo Jue’s words, the First Elder frowned slightly. Although the explosion had become a matter of silence in the organization, there were only two people in the room now, so the First Elder didn’t care so much.
But before he could speak, Huo Jue asked a fatal question.
“However, First Elder, there’s something I still don’t understand. The incident half a year ago was so serious that even the last disciple of Sect Master Ji died on the spot. I believe no one will forget that child, Ling Yue. If nothing goes wrong, she’s a strong competitor for the next sect master.”
Huo Jue’s eyes were affectionate because Ling Yue was already family to him. “I wasn’t in the organization when it happened. When I returned, what greeted me was no longer her smile, but a cold message. To be honest, I couldn’t accept it. I didn’t want to mention this at that critical moment, but…”
“That’s enough. Stop talking..”
