After Bing Jun left, Huo Fei shook his head and also left with him.
The leaders of the True Spirit Sect, the Thunder Sect, and the Assassins Association were left to close this meeting with a bitter smile on their face, but they were happy to close it.
After all, this was finally their chance to show off.
They had been the center of all kinds of ridicule after what had happened at the True Spirit Sect last time. Even if the Thunder Sect and Assassins Association hadn't been involved, everyone knew that the three factions were together because of how they had withdrawn at the same time.
It wasn't hard for them to find news that was as big as this, so everyone had started mocking all three of the factions in secret.
Naturally the information networks of these three factions had also picked this up.
Normally they would deal with it by sending out their own rumours to counter these rumours, but they had been ordered to stay still by Bing Jun.
Now that the situation was finally reversed, it was their chance to show off.
So the leaders of the True Spirit Sect, Thunder Sect, and Assassins Association closed this meeting before starting to talk to the various Nascent Soul Realm Experts. Even the two True Soul Realm Experts from the hidden factions had stayed to talk to the leaders which made them quite proud.
After all, these hidden factions wouldn't come out normally, even if they requested a meeting with them.
Now that they were taking the initiative to get closer to them, of course they were happy.
Just like this, they talked out in the open.
But under the surface, there were people making plans.
Such as Bing Jun and Huo Fei.
Bing Jun and Huo Fei were currently sitting in an enclosed and hidden room without saying a single thing.
They both had knitted brows as they just sat there in silence, looking at one another.
Finally Bing Jun broke the silence by saying, "We have to report to the family and get back up."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHuo Fei looked like he wanted to say something, but before he could say it, he swallowed the words that came to his mouth. After another moment of silence, he nodded in agreement to Bing Jun's suggestion.
Their operation in this Galactic Humanity Alliance was a secret, which was why they had acted cautiously the entire time.
Their speech hadn't been entirely truthful.
In fact, it wasn't an exaggeration to call it a lie.
The Tai Stellar Royal Family had actually called on the Four Great Families to supply experts. They had to supply the experts of at least half an upper realm for their operation.
The Bing and Huo Families naturally didn't want to use their own experts, so they chose to invade the Galactic Humanity Alliance and use their experts instead.
However, this was an invasion that didn't have the permission of the Tai Stellar Royal Family, so there would be consequences if they were discovered.
It wasn't that the Tai Stellar Royal Family cared about lowly upper realms, but rather they cared about the fact that the Bing and Huo Families went behind their backs to invade this upper realm. This was a complete disregard of the authority of the royal family. It was like a slap to their faces.
If they let the Bing and Huo Families get away with this after they discovered this, their reputation would be greatly damaged.
The key was the part, if they were discovered.
That was why Bing Jun and Huo Fei were sent.
They were just juniors of their families, so their disappearance could be easily explained with the excuse "they were out training".
But if they were to call a World Realm Expert here, people would naturally notice since World Realm Experts were all important people.
This would make it more likely that their actions would be discovered by the Tai Stellar Royal Family.
So Bing Jun and Huo Fei wouldn't want to do this unless they didn't have a choice.
The problem was the cloaked figure who had appeared to save Lin Fan. He was clearly also a World Realm Expert…
After their exchange, Bing Jun was almost certain that Lin Fan had some kind of connection to a Stellar Kingdom. If the World Realm Expert protecting him were to interfere with their plans…
With this unstable factor, Bing Jun and Huo Fei finally decided that it was time to summon help from their families.
Bing Jun was silent for a bit before saying, "We'll do it quickly and they'll be able to go back right away. No one will even notice their disappearance."
Huo Fei looked at Bing Jun with a look that clearly seemed like he thought otherwise, but he still said, "I hope so, or else you and I won't have enough lives to cover this."
Bing Jun fell silent after hearing this.
Huo Fei was right…if they failed, it would mean their deaths.
After all, if they failed, they would certainly be discovered. Once they were discovered, their families would immediately throw them away and deny all connections with them. They would say that this plan to take over the Galactic Humanity Alliance was all Bing Jun and Huo Fei's idea.
They would become the scapegoats for this mess and would be killed by the Tai Stellar Royal Family while their families remained safe.
Neither Bing Jun or Huo Fei would allow that to happen…
Bing Jun tapped a few things on a ball shaped thing before saying, "The higher ups are clearly unhappy that things have developed like this, but they understand that we can't do anything about this. They've sent someone and they will be arriving in three days."
Huo Fei just gave a silent nod of acknowledgement.
The World Realm Expert would be arriving in three days, that meant that they would be striking in three days.
This World Realm Expert would take care of the cloaked figure if they showed up, they would take care of the rest themselves.
…
Back in Lin Fan's store, as soon as he had come back, he sat down at the counter and was lost in thought.
Everyone had wanted to ask him about how the meeting had gone, but Lin Fan didn't say a thing.
So it was up to Wang Jian who had also come to his store to explain.
A Stellar Kingdom…that was something that they never expected since it was just too unbelievable. However, they couldn't deny it since it was there in front of them.
It was only Angela, Momonga, and Yuki who weren't worried at all. After all, a Stellar Kingdom was still nothing special to them.z

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey could take care of the experts from them with a single wave of their hands, but they didn't want to expose themselves, so they waited to see how Lin Fan would react.
Lin Fan was just silent as everyone discussed this, but then he suddenly thought of something.
Without any hesitation, Lin Fan stood up and headed into the back of the store.
Everyone who had been with him at the counter just stared at him in a daze, not understanding what he was doing. However, no one followed him since the back of the store was a private place.
Those that could follow him could see that he had a serious look on his face, so they chose not to follow him.
When Lin Fan reached the back, he immediately headed into the break room.
Inside of that room was Xiao Feng and Qing Bao Lan.
As soon as Lin Fan came back, Qing Bao Lan had grabbed Xiao Feng and headed off into this room alone with him, calling it a "date". However, that date was just the two of them playing since Xiao Feng didn't really understand what a date was and Qing Bao Lan didn't want to push too much since it would put Xiao Feng off.
Qing Bao Lan was naturally unhappy that Lin Fan had interrupted their "date", but Lin Fan just said, "Call out the messenger dragon."
The messenger dragon that Lin Fan mentioned was the small dragon that Qing Ao had given Qing Bao Lan. It was to be used to allow communication between Lin Fan and Qing Bao Lan.
Qing Bao Lan was clearly unhappy, but she could see how serious Lin Fan was, so she called out the small dragon.
Lin Fan quickly gave a message to the small dragon who headed off right away.
It didn't take long before that small dragon had come back with a reply.
Seeing this reply, Lin Fan gave a nod and headed out of the room.
The reply that he had received was a date and time, it was about a meeting that Lin Fan had set up with Qing Ao. Of course, it wasn't just with Qing Ao, it was also with the True Soul Realm Beasts that lived in the Galactic Humanity Alliance.
This was the final battle, so there was no need for Lin Fan to hide his alliance with the True Soul Realm Beasts anymore.
Not to mention that the other side was from a Stellar Kingdom, so they would certainly have their tricks.
They would need all the help that they could get on their side and it was finally time to bring out these True Soul Realm Beasts.
But Lin Fan wasn't certain how this meeting would go, so he couldn't help feeling a bit worried.
He was still confident about having a way to escape in the end because of his shop, but without having to come to that, he didn't want to use that method…
