Chapter 799: The Attitude of the Two Major Consortiums!
Ais Duchy, within a secret manor about a hundred miles away from Freedom Island.
"Father, the rise of Tianyun Group is definitely not simple, I must report to you!" Beth stood in front of a handsome middle-aged man and started speaking.
Freedom Island is just an external landmark of the Federal Consortium, and Beth is there to gain experience as the future leader of the entire consortium.
She is given most of the powers to operate on her own, but there is also a think tank behind her to check on things. In fact, she only needs to control the overall big picture.
If she encounters extremely special situations, such as the current uncertain circumstances, she must consult with the higher-ups behind her.
The middle-aged man in front of her, her father, William, is the Sect Leader behind the Federal Consortium!
The middle-aged man sitting on the sofa nodded slightly, "I am already aware of the situation, keep a close eye on Tianyun Consortium!
If they dare to overstep even half a step further, show no mercy.
At the very least, control their size and prevent them from expanding any further!"
Beth nodded and hesitantly said, "With Moses Manor watching us like a tiger, we dare not act rashly. The size of Tianyun now has already formed a climate!
If we act forcefully, it will inevitably give Moses Manor a loophole to exploit. Besides, Ling Beiming is not so easy to offend!"
"This matter has already exceeded our expectations. I think, the L family does not want another power capable of contending with us to rise!
You need not worry about Moses Manor, I will have your grandfather contact Lev from the L family!
However, just hinder Tianyun for now. As for dismantling them, it's not very likely. If we need to use financial power to disintegrate them, make sure to inform me first!" William instructed.
"Yes, Father, I understand, it's just that Ling Beiming is a big trouble!" Beth continued.
Upon mentioning Ling Fan, the decisive William also fell silent.
After pondering for a moment, he took a deep silent breath and instructed Beth, "Ling Beiming indeed poses a big problem, and Tianyun's ambition should stop here.
If they harbor further ambitions and actions threatening our position, there will be no room for return, even for Ling Beiming!"
Beth took a deep breath, still a bit worried, "Father, Ling Beiming's ability for personal destruction is too strong, it's better not to conflict with him lightly!
I always feel that offending him would hurt us more than him!"
William glanced at his beloved daughter and smiled faintly, "Beth, you are just starting to gain experience, trying to take control of the family's huge empire; there are many things you are not yet qualified to handle!
Do you really think that our Federal Consortium has maintained the position of world leader for so many years without any secret energies and trump cards?
Ling Beiming is only unkempt because we choose not to bother him until necessary, do you really think our family doesn't have the capacity to deal with him?"
At these words, Beth suddenly looked at her father in shock, realizing there was a mysterious power behind the family?
Seeing his daughter's surprised expression, William smiled and nodded, "Do what you must, some powers are not suitable to be revealed.
As long as that guy does not cross our bottom line, let it be. But if he steps into the mine zone, he will suffer the consequences!"
Beth swallowed hard, and it took her a while to calm her fluctuating emotions.
Her heart took a deep breath silently, and she nodded solemnly, "Father, I understand!"
...
Smea Country, the stronghold of the L family.
A secret underground fortress, a defensive stronghold that could supposedly withstand the apocalypse.
The L family had operated in this world for hundreds of years and had a substantial foundation; to say this fortress could withstand the apocalypse might be an exaggeration!
However, it could certainly withstand an attack from super weapons.
Inside the fortress, Ivan stood respectfully before an elderly man with white hair.
"Grandfather, I am responsible for the matter with Huaxia Tianyun!" Ivan directly admitted his guilt and apologized after reporting the situation of Tianyun.
The spirited elderly man before him was the L family's mastermind and their Seafixing Divine Needle, Lev!
"Hehe, you need not apologize; the matter was indeed sudden, and nobody could have anticipated it!" the elder said with a faint smile, looking at his proud grandson.
"Grandfather, do we still need to target the Tianyun Consortium?" Ivan asked hesitantly.
"Forcibly dissolving them will hardly be feasible in a short period of time, at least not when we and the Federal Consortium don't trust each other!"
"However, Beth's grandfather, Feiqi, had already called me before you arrived!" the old man said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Ivan couldn't help but startle, "What do they mean?"
"We cannot let Tianyun continue to grow, although we and the Federal Consortium have been fighting for many years!
But, from the perspective of our respective interests, none of us wants someone suddenly appearing who can share the pie!" Lev said calmly.
Ivan nodded, "Grandfather, I understand. However, from my perspective, I still hope to avoid a direct conflict with Ling Beiming!"
He spoke so for two main reasons. First, although the L family was powerful, facing someone like Ling Fan could be quite troublesome, if not debilitating!
The other significant reason was that Ling Fan had once assured him with a hundred percent certainty of helping him secure the position of the family successor!
"Hehe, that kid had indeed had several dealings with our family before he disappeared, and I know what you're worried about!
Our family has its own trump cards and strengths that you are unaware of, and should we truly face this young man in a life or death struggle, we are absolutely confident; you needn't worry!" Lev said with a faint smile, releasing shocking information to Ivan.
Upon hearing this, Ivan did not show much surprise; he had already suspected that the family must possess some hidden strength.
Because, based on the information he knew superficially, if the family only had these powers, it likely couldn't have survived the super disasters that occurred over centuries!
Seeing Ivan's composed demeanor, Lev nodded silently to himself.
"Grandfather, there must be something on Beiming that our family wants; you should know about my relationship with him," Ivan said.
Lev's expression became slightly solemn when he heard that Ling Fan possessed something the family needed, saying seriously, "This guy already gave us a precious relic last time; does he still have more?"
Ivan thought for a moment and said solemnly, "He once said that if he wishes, he could decide your attitude, and make any member of our L family the future family leader!"
At this statement, shock pierced the sky; even the unflappable Old Lev couldn't help but show an astounded discomposure.
For a while, the room fell into silent stillness, oppressively quiet!
