"Ling Cheng."
Seeing Qiu Yong and others walking side by side, Ling Chen quickly stepped forward and asked, "Is everyone uninjured?"
Yuan Yun smiled, "What could happen to us? The main force in the battle just now was Agula’s people; we were just the backdrop. However, Agula is quite honest, actually sending over half of his forces."
"Compared to sending troops to help , the benefits I’ve brought him are greater," Ling Chen said. "He now has enough manpower and weapons; defeating the rebels is only a matter of ti. Soon, he’ll be able to re-enter the President’s Mansion and establish a new regi."
When he initially decided to help Agula, Ling Chen had considered it comprehensively. Agula’s identity was evident: the leader of a nation. Building a good relationship with him was undoubtedly a worthy investnt, and there might be tis in the future we’d need his help.
"Brother, you all must be tired too. Go rest first, and I’ll co find you once I finish handling things here. Porridge girl, please arrange accommodation for my brother and the others. By the way!" While speaking, Ling Chen looked around and asked, "Has anyone seen Kai?"
Wei Jiahao chid in, "Sixth brother, are you talking about Kai? I saw him over there just now."
Ling Chen nodded, "Alright, I got it." With that, Ling Chen quickly walked in the direction Wei Jiahao pointed.
Before long, he saw Jiang Yunkai with a dozen or so subordinates pacing around the base, pointing and discussing sothing. Clearly, Jiang Yunkai was extrely excited.
"Kai, what are you doing here?" Ling Chen called out.
Seeing Ling Chen approach, Jiang Yunkai excitedly waved his hand and shouted, "Chen, co here quickly, I have sothing to discuss with you."
Once closer, Ling Chen curiously asked, "I say, Kai, what’s making you so excited?"
"Chen, I just thought of a great plan. We can build a training camp here. Look, this is a desert, no jurisdiction, unlike back ho where there are so many restrictions. Moreover, there are many organizations in this desert, and we can totally use them for practice. This way, our people can quickly gain actual combat experience. How do you feel about my suggestion?"
Hearing Jiang Yunkai’s words, Ling Chen was indeed tempted. This desert truly was a good place. Building a training camp here, syncing training with real combat, was undoubtedly the fastest way to cultivate talent. Moreover, the organizations in this desert were not good people, so even being terrorist organizations wanted by various countries.
However, Ling Chen was still a bit worried. After all, this place had no weapon restrictions. While it was a good place for training talent, it was also full of danger.
Seeing Ling Chen’s hesitation, Jiang Yunkai said, "Chen, aren’t you on good terms with Agula? We can discuss with him and seek his support. With the protection of governnt forces, who would dare move against us, do you think?"
Ling Chen thought about it and nodded, "That’s true. Alright, I’ll discuss it with Agula later."
"That’s great." Jiang Yunkai looked very pleased. He knew that Ling Chen’s words indicated he had agreed.
After staying at the base for two days, Ling Tao finally arrived in the desert by helicopter.
Having not seen him for a long ti, Ling Tao still looked the sa, seemingly very young, like soone in his twenties. However, from the porridge girl, Ling Chen learned that despite Ling Tao’s young appearance, his actual age was probably much older than Ling Kun. This was sothing Ling Chen found unbelievable, not knowing how Ling Tao managed it.
Ling Tao first inspected the laboratory and only relaxed after learning that the Clones were not an issue.
"Alright, you all leave. I want to chat with Ling Chen alone."
Upon Ling Tao’s words, the porridge girl imdiately led others out of the lab. Ling Chen felt a bit excited; he knew that after waiting so long, Ling Tao was finally about to lay it all out for him.
After everyone left, Ling Tao walked to a culture vessel on his own, looking at the young man lying inside, not speaking for a long ti, appearing very calm. After a few minutes, Ling Tao pointed at the young man in the culture vessel and asked, "Do you know who this person is?"
Ling Chen blinked. Isn’t this nonsense? If he knew who this person was, why would he ask you?
Ling Tao didn’t seem to expect Ling Chen to guess and said to himself, "Hundreds of years ago, his na was very famous, even you should have heard of him. Not only that, the martial arts you are practicing now were also created by him."
Hearing this, Ling Chen was imdiately dumbfounded, his mind a blank. After a while, Ling Chen gradually regained consciousness, saying in an incredulous tone, "You wouldn’t be telling his na is Ling Gengqiu, would you?"
Ling Tao glanced at Ling Chen, smiled slightly, and asked, "What, do you find it unbelievable? Indeed, for an ordinary person, this news would be shocking. But, what I want to tell you is, he is indeed Ling Gengqiu. To be precise, he is the clone of Ling Gengqiu."
Ling Chen listened carefully to Ling Tao, his mind racing to keep up with the pace.
"So, the severed arm stored in the freezer is from Ling Gengqiu’s original body? But... how is that possible? Ling Gengqiu has been dead for hundreds of years, his body long turned to a pile of bones. How could it have been preserved so well?"
"Ling Chen, you must rember, in this world, there’s nothing absolutely impossible. Perhaps others couldn’t do it, but our ancestors could. Now you should understand why I didn’t want to tell you the truth too early. This matter, for you, is still hard to accept. Even your father needed several days to co to terms when he discovered the truth. Do you still want to continue listening?"
Ling Chen nodded without hesitation. When capturing Lin Guodong, the latter repeatedly reminded him that the Ling Family’s internal struggles all stemd from Ling Gengqiu. At the ti, he couldn’t understand why a man dead for hundreds of years could influence grudges among later generations. Now was undoubtedly the best ti to uncover this secret. If missed, who knows when he would get the chance to learn the truth.
"Alright, since you insist on understanding, I’ll tell you the whole story. But you must rember, this is a secret of the Ling Family and must never be revealed to outsiders. Otherwise, the repercussions would be unimaginable."
"Don’t worry, I have a tight mouth and won’t blab."
"Co with , let’s find a place to sit. This matter is not sothing that can be explained in a few words."
