"Do you remember, the incident of Lin Yun constructing a building in Immortal Origin County?" Suddenly, an elder asked.

"Hmm?" The other elders turned to look at him, most of them had come straight to apprehend Lin Yun, only knowing he might have obtained alien technology, but had not looked into Lin Yun's detailed information.

"It's said, that building wasn't finished, but even the completed part cost nearly a hundred billion Huaxia Currency. People were wondering where Lin Yun got so much money to build it. Something about the transportation of building materials seemed off. Looking at it now, it's likely that he used this global resource collection method..." the elder continued.

"Why bring it up now..." another elder queried, frowning.

"My suggestion, since we can't find Lin Yun, let's force him out. I know Immortal Origin County is his hometown. He invested all the money he made recently there, he must care about his hometown. The building is just a part of it. He also has various facilities and over a hundred thousand employees at Qingyun Company, whom Lin Yun is paying wages to every ten days.

He seems to care a lot about these employees..." the elder lightly smiled as he spoke.

"These indicate that Lin Yun is a sentimental person, so we can exploit this weakness..." the elder paused before continuing.

"Sentimental?" Many elders' eyes sparkled.

They had encountered many like him before, indeed, that kind of emotional attachment was a weakness. They had used this weakness against many people in the past.

"Let's start with the building. The scale of the building is massive and I know that even after Qingyun Company's incident, he continued to build. He must care about the building, so let's destroy it..." the elder nodded slightly as he said this.

"The building is worth only a hundred billion Huaxia Currency. Will he care about that? After all, the resources he collected from across the world today were worth nearly a hundred billion US dollars..." another elder frowned in disagreement.

"What I just said, the building's cost alone was nearly a hundred billion Huaxia Currency. Now that it's built, it's worth much more, at least several hundred billion, if not a trillion. More importantly, this was a major project that Lin Yun heavily invested in when he obtained the alien technology. The amount of effort and emotion he poured in is not something you can measure in numbers.

If we destroy this building, he will definitely not remain indifferent. Not to mention, this is only the first step…" the elder shook his head.

"Then there are his family, his relatives, his friends, and his business partners. We can take advantage of all these people if he really is sentimental. He should care about these people..." one elder said.

"There's also public opinion. We can use it in our favor too. Based on his past actions, he seems to care about his image. Youth can be so stubborn..." another elder pitched in.

"Sounds like a plan!" the elder with the Innate late-stage cultivation slightly nodded his approval.

"What I'm saying is, can we use another approach? Lin Yun is quite powerful already. If we force him out and we can't deal with him, the outcome might be really bad. Since Lin Yun is sentimental and cares about his homeland, Huaxia, where he was born and raised, using a persuasive tactic might be able to solve this..." just then, an elder proposed a different approach.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"Persuasion? Ha, didn't we already mention we can recruit him into the Sky Group? With us as his support. Didn't you see how he responded?" an elder scoffed.

"Our relationship with him is tense now. He has vowed to destroy our Sky Group. This issue can't be resolved by just changing our approach..." the elder with the Innate late-stage cultivation shook his head.

"But he said that if we leave or disband the Sky Group...this suggests that..." the elder continued.

"What's the Sky Group? He simply says a word and we leave or disband our Sky Group? And how can you be sure that he didn't just casually say those words to weaken our strength?" the elder with the Innate late-stage level coldly glanced at the other elder and said.

"Disbanding the Sky Group is not an option. The most important thing is, the event we have been awaiting isn't far. We don't have much time to delay. We have to act, and sooner is better than later..." the elder with the Innate late-stage cultivation paused, then lifted his head and looked into the distance as if he could see beyond this aircraft, he said softly.

"Sigh..." Hearing this, the elder who had proposed persuasion fell silent for a moment, before letting out a light sigh. He didn't say anything more.

"In Australia No.1 Warehouse Cluster, there's been a massive disappearance of resources. Lin Yun might have been there..." Just then, an elder received information and quickly shouted.

"Let's head there immediately!"

...

"Damn it!"

After Lin Yun finished extracting the resources from his last target, he quickly left the area. A few minutes later, the Sky Group's aircraft arrived. When they didn't find Lin Yun, one elder angrily cursed.

Their pace was fast as well, but when they arrived, they saw that America's aircraft was also heading their way. In order to prevent them from discovering Lin Yun, they had to intercept them first.
