Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 1016 Just disband Nadutong, I'll rebuild it.

However, none of that matters. Given He Songling's personality, it's quite possible that he would casually make Zhang Chulan one of the Ten Elders.

The Ten Elders wouldn't have been able to withdraw so easily, as they were subordinate to the company and determined many major events and situations in the world of supernatural beings. But fortunately, the reason Ru Hu was selected was entirely because of his "fighting prowess," while his small gang of thugs in Liulichang had little influence.

Even if they withdraw, it won't have much of an impact.

Furthermore, his reasoning was also quite sound: "I left the Ten Elders in order to follow He Songling in his cultivation. If any of you disagree, go ask He Songling."

No one objected.

Even if someone wanted to oppose him, they had to be wary of He Songling.

Especially for someone like Jie Kong who has lost his cultivation, he was really afraid that He Songling could lift his wheelchair and dump him off the cliff like he was dumping garbage.

Contrary to expectations, many people were actually unwilling to let Ru Hu retire from the Ten Elders.

Since the number of "lao" has already increased, there are plenty of people who want to come in from outside. Unless there are very special circumstances, there is basically no possibility of reducing it back down. In other words, it is virtually impossible for the "ten lao" to be reduced to "nine lao".

Since someone has to make up the tenth person, if there is a choice, people like Lü Ci and Wang Ai, who are more thoughtful, would prefer that Ru Hu be one of the ten elders.

The reason is simple: that tiger has no power.

His power is weak, so his influence within the circle is also weak. Although the name "Na Ruhu" is worth a fortune, how much can he, as an individual, influence? After all, not everyone is He Songling.

Aside from the company, it's basically the Ten Elders' slice of the pie in their respective circles. If Ru Hu takes less of a bite, they take more.

Now that Ruhu is withdrawing, whether it's the Shuzi Sect or the Qiuzhen Society that takes his place, our side will lose far more.

But there's nothing I can do. Like I said, if you have any opinions, go talk to He Songling.

dare not.

Wang Ai had just made her habit of being sarcastic again, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to say a word. This was the terrifying power of He Songling, especially the old people who had made the couple doubles beat each other back then. They knew even better what a terrifying existence the two of them were now together.

However, just when Wang Ai thought she had escaped a disaster, she saw a handsome man and a beautiful woman sitting on the sofa in the lobby of the hotel.

"Congratulations...congratulations..."

Wang Ai's finger trembled as she pointed at He Songling.

"Old Wang, I heard you were swearing during the meeting just now, right?" He Songling smiled kindly, seemingly having no intention of making a move.

Old Wang's legs went weak.

"Chairman Ling, while company leaders are allowed to attend meetings, isn't it inappropriate for you to eavesdrop on the meeting of the Ten Leaders?"

It must be said that Wang Ai hasn't lived in vain all these years; he still possesses a certain quick wit. After all, we live in a society governed by law now, and He Songling doesn't use his real name, so it's obvious he needs to be mindful of his image. Therefore, he deliberately addresses He Songling as "Chairman Ling," which serves two purposes: firstly, it clarifies that he is now Ling Songhe, just a junior who appeared out of nowhere; secondly, it uses his title, indicating that in work contexts, this is a meeting between the Ten Elders and the CEO of All-Tongue.

Let's talk about the rules again.

Even if you brazenly admit to eavesdropping, there's nothing I can do, but you can't just hit me when you're in the wrong, can you?

It turns out, yes.

"Bore!"

With a wave of his hand, He Songling smashed Wang Ai into the hotel floor tiles out of thin air, making it impossible to pry her out.

"Old Wang, we haven't seen each other for decades, have you forgotten me? Do you think I'm the kind of person who falls for your moral blackmail?" He Songling blew non-existent dust off his hands and said with a start.

"Old Ling, you've fucking gone mad!" Wang Ai was both shocked and furious. After being a big shot for so many years, he couldn't play the subservient role anymore. He directly cursed in a fit of rage: "Do you know that you represent All-in-One now! The CEO of All-in-One has attacked one of the Ten Bosses. Are you trying to start a war with the people? Are you trying to destroy All-in-One?"

"Nonsense! I'm beating you up precisely because I'm the CEO of NaDuTong. The company will take the blame anyway, so what am I afraid of?"

He Songling shrugged and laughed, "What does it have to do with me, He Songling, that Ling Songhe beat you up? Besides, so what if Na Du Tong is rotten? I can just shut it down and build a new Na Du Tong. Old Wang, you're not doubting my abilities, are you? Well, you've got a way to get a second beating."

Wang Ai was speechless. Yes, over the years, they had three things that impressed them most about He Songling: his despicable humanity, which could be described as the lowest level of hell, his powerful talent and strength, and his ability to rise from nothing.

Back then, an old clockmaker, leading an old clock company, and with Britain and the United States as his underlings, built the world's largest company and the world's richest man. Not to mention that era, it is still quite an incredible achievement even today.

More importantly, He Songling completely changed the landscape and vision of the supernatural world through this "exchange of interests." From then on, the supernatural beings realized that fighting and pursuing greater martial power were not their ultimate goals.

Even extraordinary people are still human, and humans naturally need to live more like human beings, and all of this requires a solid material foundation.

Now, He Songling holds the wealth he acquired from the shares he left behind back then, making him the largest shareholder of Na Du Tong, but he has not reinvested in Na Du Tong.

The Ten Elders are the ten biggest figures in the industry, with extensive information channels. Of course, they knew that He Songling and a few young people had started "Old Immortal Co., Ltd." After all, it was registered with the Administration for Industry and Commerce and paid taxes legally; even big shots could find out about it.

If something goes wrong with Allway, he might actually use this "old god company" to seamlessly take over.

"Then what exactly do you want to do!" Wang Ai asked through gritted teeth.

"What do you mean I want to do? I'm here to pick up Ru Hu and leave. He wants to go south with me to Trinity University. Who told you to be so talkative?" He Songling was also innocent. He never intended to get involved in the affairs of the Ten Elders. After all, he was already the CEO of Na Du Tong. Why would he bother with the Ten Elders? Wasn't that just asking for trouble?
"And Old Guan too..." Wang Ai was still the same as always, acting somewhat superficially and without considering the consequences. Although he regretted his words as soon as they left his mouth, no one present was deaf, and no one would suddenly lose their memory.

"Old Guan, look, this is the man who claimed he would give everything for you back then. It's a good thing you didn't marry him," He Songling chimed in from the side.

"Hmph, fine, fine, Old Wang, I'll remember you." Guan Shihua certainly wouldn't start a fight in public. Wang Ai wasn't a man like Xia Liuqing who thought like a laborer and would fight back when hit. Guan Shihua could only grumble a couple of times and then move a few steps further away from Wang Ai with a stern face.
