Tang Luoyang did not agree with cooperation with Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect from the beginning, so at this moment, he was under the least pressure and was the least frightened.

However, he still needed to clarify some things with Lin Zhong to avoid misunderstandings between the two parties.

"Zhenwumen did come to us, hoping to form an offensive and defensive alliance, but we did not agree."

Tang Luoyang raised his head and looked directly into Lin Zhong's eyes, and said in a calm and calm tone: "Leader Lin, our Tang family is a businessman, and the last thing we want to do is to engage in loss-making business. I don't know what other people think, but at least, our Tang family I would rather stay out of it than wade in troubled waters."

Lin Jian nodded and accepted Tang Luoyang's explanation: "It seems that I have worried too much. As the head of a family, you are responsible for the fate of thousands of people. You should not be greedy for profit and bring about your own destruction."

As soon as Lin Zhong said these words, the atmosphere in the villa suddenly fell into freezing point.

Liu Wenzhou, Nangong Yi, and Wu Hong were stiff, sweating profusely, and they didn't know what expressions to show.

The other guests around him were also stunned and silent.

"Actually, I don't mind if you cooperate with the Zhenwu Sect and the Wuji Sect, nor do I mind if you become the enemy of the Martial Alliance."

Lin Zhong looked around, and his indifferent voice clearly reached everyone's ears: "The choice is in your hands, whether you are an enemy or a friend, it all depends on your thoughts. Don't say that you are unpredicted.

"

After saying that, Lin Zhong turned around and left.

"Goodbye everyone."

Su Miao waved goodbye with impeccable etiquette, then turned around and followed Lin Zhong's footsteps.

The crowd automatically made way for a passage, watching as the two figures gradually disappeared, and the huge villa fell silent.

"Boom!"

The roar of the motor sounded outside the villa, and three cars filed away from the Liu family manor.

It comes suddenly and goes away carelessly.

Everyone did not expect Lin Zhong and Su Miao to leave so easily, and they could not recover for a long time.

Everything happened so fast, it was like a dream.

From the time they entered the Liu family manor to the time they left, it took no more than ten minutes.

However, what happens in these ten minutes will definitely have a profound impact on the situation.

If you think about it carefully, Lin Zhong actually didn't do anything, he just said a few words.

His attitude is not too vicious, and he can even be called approachable.

But the words Lin Zhong said were full of warning in the ears of Liu Wenzhou, Nangong Yi, Tang Luoyang and others.

In particular, the phrase "Don't say what you say is unforeseen" is almost equivalent to an ultimatum.

Who dares to ignore the warning from the majestic leader of the martial alliance?

Who dares to turn a deaf ear?

Who dares not to take it seriously?

The original relaxed and cheerful atmosphere of the reception was gone. Everyone, including the four heads of the family, felt heavy in their hearts, as if they were weighed down by a big stone.

"Feel sorry

, we have something to discuss, please help yourself."

Tang Luoyang winked at Liu Wenzhou.

Liu Wenzhou understood and forced out a smile: "My friends, please forgive me for the poor reception. In addition, please do not spread the words of Leader Lin about Zhenwu Sect to avoid causing bad influence."

"clear."

"We promise to keep it tight-lipped."

"Then let's go first, good night everyone."

"See you next time."

As if they had received an amnesty, the guests hurriedly said goodbye to Liu Wenzhou, Tang Luoyang and others, and then swarmed outside, as if staying for a second longer would get them into trouble.

Seeing this scene, Liu Kun, Tang Fengqi, Tang Fengxiang, Wu Shizheng, Wu Ming, Nangong Ce, Nangong Hao and other children from aristocratic families all showed unhappy expressions on their faces.

"A bunch of guys who adapt to the changing circumstances."

Tang Fengqi sneered: "The grass on the wall is really unreliable."

The other children of the aristocratic families turned their heads and looked at him with strange eyes.

Tang Fengqi raised his eyebrows: "Why do you look at me like this?"

"nothing."

Everyone looked away again, pretending that nothing happened.

After all the guests had left, Liu Wenzhou led Tang Luoyang, Nangong Yi, and Wu Hong to the conference room on the second floor of the villa, and a group of children from aristocratic families followed.

The conference room is not spacious, only 70 to 80 square meters, but it is more than enough to accommodate a dozen people.

"Now

Do you still want to cooperate with Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect?" Tang Luoyang asked bluntly.

Liu Wenzhou opened his mouth, and his thousands of words turned into a long sigh.

"There's definitely no way we can cooperate with them."

Wu Hong sat slumped on the single sofa, his fat hands folded on his abdomen, and he also said bluntly: "The risks are not proportional to the benefits. Our family has a big business and cannot afford the price of failure."

Nangong Yi looked gloomy and said nothing.

At this time, his mood was extremely complicated.

The cooperation plan with Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect was actually promoted by him behind the scenes.

Because among the eight hidden families, the Nangong family ranks the lowest and is far from being comparable to the Su family, Jiang family, Guan family, etc., and is facing fierce external competition, with their wealth and income declining day by day.

If no countermeasures are taken, I am afraid that within a few years, the Nangong family will be replaced by the Wen family, which is eyeing them.

Relying on Wen Man's relationship, the Wen family has embraced Lin Zhong. In recent times, they have made frequent moves, their wealth has been growing, and the family's reputation has also been rising.

How could Nangong Yi sit still?

However, the Nangong family has begun to decline. With its own strength, it is impossible to suppress the Wen family. They also have to worry about the stance of Lin Zhong and Wu Meng and dare not go too far.

In order to reverse the decline, Nangong Yi thought so hard and exhausted that he lost a lot of hair.

Therefore, seriously

When Wu Men extended an olive branch, he was like a drowning man who finally grasped the life-saving straw. He risked all his wealth without hesitation and prepared to fight.

But Lin Zhong didn't even give him a chance to fight.

Seeing the Tang family, Wu family, and Liu family retreating from the battle, Nangong Yi was so anxious that he wanted to use a gun to force them to make a decision.

"You were so easily frightened by Lin Zhong?"

Nangong Yi suddenly raised his head, bloodshot eyes appearing: "No matter what he says, it can't change the fact that the overall strength of the Martial Alliance is weaker than that of Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect."

"Why did Lin Zhong come to us? Is it really out of good intentions? I don't think so. If he is sure of winning, why waste time and energy on making a special trip?"

"Wealth is gained through danger. If our ancestors were not willing to take extraordinary risks, would we have a chance to sit here? Do you want to be suppressed by the Su family, Jiang family, and Guan family for the rest of your life?"

"Old Wu, the situation of your Wu family is not much better than that of our Nangong family, right? If the Nangong family falls, it will be your turn next!"

Nangong Yi was eloquent and eloquent, trying to save the situation.

But Liu Wenzhou, Tang Luoyang, Wu Hong and others were not moved at all.

Who can become the head of a family, who is not a human being?

They all have an account in their mind, and they can calculate the pros and cons.
