Chapter 1460 Drastic Change!
To be fair, what Shen Yulin said was not without reason.
If not for the common threat of the Holy Light Temple, and Meng Chao, as well as “Jackal” Kanus experiencing the end of the world in their nightmares, the Dragon City civilization and Turan civilization might really fight each other.
It was precisely because of this that Meng Chao was even more confused. “Since this war has so many benefits and is so imperative, why can’t you speak your ideas openly, gather the will of all the nine mega corporations’ higher-ups, and then go to the Survival Committee to persuade more than two-thirds of the members?
“Don’t tell me that the higher-ups of the nine corporations and the members of the Survival Committee don’t understand what you just said?
“Why do we have to act on our own and report it after the fact?”
“There are two kinds of things in this world: those that can be done and those that cannot be said, and those that can be said and those that cannot be done.”
Shen Yulin calmly said, “There are also two kinds of people in this world. One is responsible for appearing in public and being righteous, and the other is responsible for doing whatever it takes and doing whatever is necessary. “Many members of the Survival Committee know the benefits and necessity of starting a war, and they don’t disagree with starting a war.
“They just don’t want the leadership of this brand-new war to fall into the hands of the nine corporations and the nine noble families of cultivation.
“The ordinary citizens, on the other hand, are often hesitant, greedy, and ignorant. They want to enjoy the benefits of the war, but they are not willing to pay the price of the war. They always think that the world will have the best of both worlds.
“If we continue to send the North Advancement Plan to the Survival Committee for discussion, we will only get into endless wrangling, and we will miss the fleeting opportunity to fight.
“As the saying goes, ‘meat-eaters are contemptible.’ What do those royal dukes, who only hide in the back and talk loudly, know? The future of Dragon City is still in the hands of people like you and me, who are on the front line, who have first-hand information, and are willing to sacrifice everything for Dragon City’s civilization. Don’t you think so?”
Shen Yulin stretched out his right hand from the mud with some difficulty.
He looked at Meng Chao with bright eyes.
Meng Chao hesitated for a moment as if he was seriously considering Shen Yulin’s suggestion, and he gradually leaned toward the other party’s position.
“Can you tell me about your organization?”
Meng Chao said, “You said just now that you have covered all walks of life in Dragon City, including the elites of all major fields, as well as the senior executives of various organizations and societies?
“I really can’t imagine what kind of huge organization that is.” “That’s right.”
Shen Yulin smiled slightly, revealing a reserved and proud smile. “The scale and strength of the organization far exceed your imagination. Moreover, we will certainly absorb ten times more resources in the brand-new war and become the leader of Dragon City, able to guide the progress of the entire civilization. An outstanding figure like you will certainly be able to achieve great things with the organization’s help and be remembered in history!”
“Since the organization is so powerful, why have I never heard of your name?”
Meng Chao seemed to be a little moved, but he was also a little confused.
“You will hear about it.”
Shen Yulin only said, “After you show your determination, as well as loyalty, and officially join the organization, you will naturally know its name and history. Our organization has a long history and is deeply rooted. It is even older than the Survival Committee.”
“What?!”
Meng Chao was a little shocked. After thinking for a long time, he seemed to make up his mind. “Then, you should at least tell me the names of Sky Pillar Corporation’s higher-ups who joined the organization.
“Didn’t you just say that there are many big shots in the Lu family who are members of this organization?
“It’s not that I don’t believe you. It’s just that the incident of Lu Siya betraying the Lu family has had a huge impact on us. I don’t want to be the second Lu Siya. I don’t want to be a traitor to the Lu family. I also don’t want to join a mysterious organization under the recommendation of a disciple of the Shen family. After all, do you know the relationship between Sky Pillar Corporation and Universe Corporation?”
“I understand.”
Shen Yulin smiled. “So, you want a member of the Lu family who has a high position in Sky Pillar Corporation to act as someone introducing you to the organization?”
“That’s right.”
Meng Chao nodded, and a crafty light shone in his eyes. “After all, my future in Sky Pillar Corporation is still decided by the big shot of the Lu family, isn’t it?”
“Of course, your request is very reasonable, and there’s not much of a problem.”
Shen Yulin said, “Pull me up, and you’ll be able to meet the big shot from your family in a while. I guarantee that when you recognize his face, you’ll definitely be shocked!”
Meng Chao hesitated.
“Can’t you just tell me his name?” He was a little hesitant.
“Trust is mutual. I have shown enough sincerity in this quagmire. Now, it’s your turn.”
Shen Yulin calmly said, “Just as you said, you have no other choice. What can you do if you continue to hesitate?
“As for the names, of course, I can name ten or eight of them. The problem is, how do you know whether I’m telling the truth or not?
“What you hear is false, what you see is true. Pull me out and I’ll bring you to the organization. Isn’t it safer for you to meet the important figures of the Lu family?”
Meng Chao stared at Shen Yulin’s face.
He tried to find the slightest trace of a lie on his face.
However, Shen Yulin’s face was calm.
It was as if he was selfless and had a clear conscience.
Meng Chao looked around.
By then, the torrential rain had subsided and turned into a drizzling drizzle that penetrated through every orifice.
However, dawn had yet to arrive, and their surroundings were still pitch black.
He could only rely on the starlight that leaked through the gaps between the dark clouds. He could barely see what was in the distance or nearby. The undulating mountain ridges were like huge beasts that bared their fangs and brandished their claws, blocking all the roads.
Meng Chao took a deep breath.
He finally made up his mind.
He held Shen Yulin’s extended hand.
“Hold on tight, I’ll pull you up!”
“Alright!”
Shen Yulin’s smile was extremely bright. He obediently held Meng Chao’s hand with a tight grip.
Then, he suddenly exerted force.
“Crack!”
An extremely clear sound of bones cracking could be heard from Meng Chao’s hand.
“Roar!”
There were dozens of radiating veins on Shen Yulin’s face, as though they had been created by an explosion.
Accompanied by a beast-like howl from the depths of his throat, his expression instantly became extremely mournful.
His five fingers that grabbed Meng Chao were like five red-hot iron hooks that were deeply embedded into Meng Chao’s skin and flesh. If one listened carefully, one could even hear the sound of burning.

eng Chao seemed to be caught off guard, and he let out a scream of shock as well as anger.
Shen Yulin’s face was filled with malevolence. He let out a strange laugh and pulled forcefully, causing Meng Chao to lose his balance and fall into the mud.
He took the opportunity to jump up. Like a raging flood dragon, he leaped up from the bottom of the abyss at an extremely high speed.
One should know that Shen Yulin’s entire body had sunk into the mud earlier. His mouth, nose, eyes, and ears were barely exposed.
Under the pressure of several dozen million tons of mud, and with nowhere to borrow strength, forget an ordinary person, even superhumans with slightly lower cultivation bases would not be able to break free easily.
However, Shen Yulin directly jumped from the depths of the mud to the SUV that was about to be submerged. Then, he pressed Meng Chao under him.
In an instant, the positions of both the offensive and defensive sides underwent a hundred-and-eighty-degree reversal.
Shen Yulin’s form and temperament were completely different from before.
The original Shen Yulin had a strong physique after long-term exploration and mining of crystals.
To be able to become the master of a mine, his hands must have been stained with a lot of blood, both monster blood and human blood.
Even so, he was ultimately a high-level manager. He mainly used his brain and not his muscles to solve problems. It was impossible for him to be as strong and valiant as a pure warrior.
Yet, the current Shen Yulin’s body had not only expanded to twice its original size, but every muscle was as full as a bomb that was about to explode. At the same time, it seemed to have an independent will as it pulsated violently. His entire body looked so thick that even an anti-tank cannon could not penetrate it.
Moreover, his skin had also added a layer of granite-like texture, giving people a rough and hard feeling. It was as if all the flesh and blood on his body had been replaced with some kind of dense rock.
His eyes were even more frightening.
Right then, the raging flames that were spurting out of Shen Yulin’s eyes could burn real granite into a pile of mud!
n
Tss, tss, tss, tss, tss!
It was as if a steam engine had been installed in Shen Yulin’s body that was operating to the limit, causing white smoke to spurt out of his seven orifices.
In the midst of the white smoke, he revealed an expression of incomparable enjoyment and indulged himself in the unparalleled, unrestrained flow of power. He did not pay any attention to Meng Chao, who was firmly pinned down by his palm.
Meng Chao revealed a regretful expression. It was as if he had suddenly realized why Shen Yulin had been “open and honest,” telling him so much to merely stall for time. Fortunately, under the cover of the mud, he was silently circulating his spirit energy and changing the structure of his cells. He had released a power that was even more violent than that of ferocious Hell Beasts.
Meng Chao was convulsing in pain and shrieking in horror. “You… You lied to me!”
“Don’t be afraid. I didn’t lie to you, and I won’t kill you just like that.”
Shen Yulin grinned, revealing his teeth that were even sharper than a chainsaw. His voice was a hundred times deeper and huskier than before, and it was full of suffocating pressure. “My promise is still valid. As long as you’re not lying, you’ll have a chance to join our organization.
“Of course, not in your current state.
“You’re too smart, too dangerous, and too good at disguising your injuries. Even high-concentration anesthetics and truth-telling agents are ineffective against you. It’s impossible for me to bring you back to the organization in such a state.
“Let me think… I will dismantle all your joints, break your limbs and vertebrae, blow up your internal organs, and drain two-thirds of your blood. That will be enough insurance, right?
“Don’t worry. The organization is more powerful than you can imagine. We have the most advanced medical and gene-modulation technology. No matter what I turn you into, the organization will have a way to bring you back to life. They will even inject a brand-new, incredible power into your body and make you… like me!”
