CHAPTER 486: CHAPTER 372: THE DISINTEGRATION OF REFUGEE VILLAGE, FIFTH SYSTEM UPGRADE!

At this moment.

Xing Lingfeng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

His heartbeat was fierce.

The reason?

He set a trap.

With just one sentence, he fully opposed the world’s number one, Lin Yue, against the world’s number two, Lily Kalahao.

Considering Lin Yue’s attitude towards the Lizardmen and beggars, and Lily Kalahao’s aggressive actions, it was almost certain that the war between them would soon begin.

If successful, with Lin Yue’s strength, an enemy like Lily Kalahao would surely not stand a chance against him and might even be completely eradicated!

Their Refugee Village’s danger would simultaneously be lifted, and it might even gain greater development opportunities as a result.

Afterward, he would team up with Jia Yunzhan to become the top of the second tier in this Otherworld, gaining more speaking power!

Provided that...

He opened his eyes again and looked at the three confidants sitting opposite him.

Feng Peng, Huo Yu, and You Siyuan.

These three have followed him through life and death, trusting each other immensely, and are extremely loyal to him; the rapid development of this Refugee Village is inseparable from the assistance of these three capable generals.

But now, Xing Lingfeng suddenly felt as though these three had begun to see him as a stranger.

After they learned that he had made such a significant decision without consulting the entire village but rather made it himself, they found it unacceptable, glaring at him one by one.

Instead of the excitement or anticipation he imagined.

So, why is this?

Although, originally, the Refugee Village believed in "collective deliberation," not "dictatorship," he felt that this matter required him to make the decision.

If successful, it would be an excellent opportunity!

An excellent opportunity for the Refugee Village to soar!

Also, it could eliminate their biggest enemy and potentially earn a favor from Lin Yue.

It would be beneficial in many ways.

"What I’ve done... I believe what I did wasn’t wrong." Xing Lingfeng finally shook his head at the three but did not look them in the eye.

He felt he had to convince them; unless he could, this matter would ultimately be a ticking time bomb.

In his judgment, this issue had to be resolved, and persuading the three was the key!

"Boss, do you think your decision might be a bit excessive?" You Siyuan’s voice trembled, as the leader Xing Lingfeng had not discussed this matter thoroughly with them, but went ahead and pushed Lin Yue into a dangerous situation.

What mattered wasn’t Lin Yue’s situation, but that such an important matter was "unilaterally decided" by Xing Lingfeng!

"You Siyuan, stop talking." Huo Yu sighed with disappointment, bowing his head.

Feng Peng remained silent, staring at Xing Lingfeng as if he didn’t recognize him.

Xing Lingfeng gave a bitter smile: "Blame me? I had no choice; I must protect all of you, so it’s better to let those two tigers fight it out, and Lin Yue will surely defeat that woman. Otherwise, we would surely be absorbed by that woman’s Refugee Village till nothing remains. Besides, isn’t this also an opportunity for us?"

"Is it? From Savior to tiger, Lily Kalahao is indeed formidable and dangerous, but what about Lin Yue?" Feng Peng suddenly became agitated, "Leader, you said humanity needs a Savior, and we believe this very strongly too. Isn’t he recognized by most of humanity due to his achievements in the past two disasters? Whether it was the thunderstorm hurricane last time, or the triple disasters this time, what would have happened without him?"

"I know what you are saying very well, and Lin Yue absolutely won’t be killed by that woman..."

"If he were a tiger, we would have died in the Underground Ruins being chased by those Lizardmen and beggars, right? Could his gun have been pointed at us? Did he do that? He chose to face numerous enemies himself, and to prevent us from being in danger again, he sealed the passage to the Underground Ruins to avoid being attacked by the Lizardmen. Leader, don’t you remember?" Feng Peng stood up, seemingly completely oblivious that the person before him was the leader of the Refugee Village.

"Boss, why do you think that if Lin Yue doesn’t fight Lily Kalahao, we will be absorbed and eaten by that woman? Can’t we rely on our strength? Besides, that woman, no matter how strong, can she jump all the way from ten thousand miles away to reach us? Boss, this is too unilateral of you, and the three of us don’t think it’s okay!"

You Siyuan also stood up but was pressed down by Huo Yu.

"You two stop!" Huo Yu looked at them, then at Xing Lingfeng, who still did not look them in the eye. "Since the leader chooses this way, we have nothing to say. However, I’ve never believed the leader’s choice is correct now. What about protecting all of us? We don’t need anyone’s protection, we control our fate ourselves. We followed you in the Otherworld to fight, not to see you do this. Moreover, Lin Yue is not a sure bet; what if he fails? Have you considered the consequences? Not consulting with any of us and acting first, then telling us... this is not what you said as ’collective deliberation’!"
