Chapter 613: The Situation Changes

Ye Ning had just calmed down a little, and someone walked into the conference room again. The man was dressed in a neat black military uniform, and his epaulettes shone silver, indicating his high status. But this was not what attracted Ye Ning's attention the most, because he knew this person - the Minister of Defense, Li Jingwu.

Ye Ning remembered Li Jingwu a year ago, at that time, his eyes revealed resoluteness and sharpness, and there was always a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, as if everything was under his control. But Li Jingwu at this moment is in stark contrast to him in his memory. His eyes were cloudy, he had lost his former sharpness, and the pridefulness on his face had been replaced by a cowardice, and he looked as if he had just suffered a major blow.

When Ye Ning's gaze met with Li Jingwu, he saw Li Jingwu's submissive expression, as if he was avoiding something, or afraid of something.

"Minister Li, it's early." Ye Ning tried to break the awkward atmosphere with him.

But Li Jingwu's reaction made Ye Ning even more confused, he just nodded slightly, without any words. He walked quickly to his seat, as if it were his only safe haven. When he sat down, his body trembled slightly, his fingers gripping the armrests of the chair tightly, and his eyes showed a fear of disbelief.

Ye Ning frowned, the doubts in his heart were even worse, he knew that everything that happened in the Heaven Swallowing Hall was not so simple. And now, Li Jingwu's abnormality has undoubtedly given Ye Ning more thoughts and worries.

The Li Jingwu in front of Ye Ning was no longer the domineering and exposed Minister of Defense, but a middle-aged man who seemed a little timid and afraid. He noticed that Li Jingwu was constantly scanning the surroundings, as if he was worried about being targeted, which made Ye Ning even more curious. He decided to go closer and find out.

Gently moving his steps, Ye Jingjing quietly walked to Li Jingwu's side, he could feel Li Jingwu's body trembling slightly, all of this was completely different from the Li Jingwu he knew before. Ye Ning looked at him with interest, and then said softly, "Minister Li, where is Chief Yu? Why isn't his name here?"

Li Jingwu obviously didn't expect Ye Ning to ask suddenly, his whole body shook slightly, and then his gaze finally met with Ye Ning. Ye Ning could see the uneasiness and worry in Li Jingwu's eyes, he took a deep breath, and there was a hint of choking in his tone: "Leader Yu, he died of illness a month ago. The exact disease has not been announced."

Ye Ning's heart shook suddenly, he didn't expect such an answer at all. Leader Yu, the powerful leader who once went to glory, passed away like this. Although Ye Ning knew that Leader Yu had been in poor health, the Dawn Elixir had greatly improved his body, and such an ending made him fall into a kind of shock.

But Ye Ning didn't show too much emotion, he nodded slightly, and said in the most stable tone possible, "Okay, I'll go to Fan Ruxian to ask after the meeting."

Ye Ning originally maintained a trace of calm, but Li Jingwu's next words completely shocked him. In this moment of silence, Ye Ning could clearly hear the sound of time moving in the conference room, the voice was like a mockery, slow and heavy.

"Fan Ruxian also passed away." Li Jingwu's words trembled slightly, as if announcing an unacceptable fact. There was a deep apprehension in his eyes, as if he foresaw the coming storm.

Ye Ning's heart was beating faster, and he felt an unprecedented sense of depression. Yu Xuanao's death from illness can still be understood as an accident, but Fan Ruxian also passed away one after another, which made Ye Ning have to believe that there was some kind of conspiracy in it. This means that something is changing dramatically at the top of humanity.

Li Jingwu seemed to catch Ye Ning's doubts, and he lowered his head and avoided Ye Ning's gaze, as if to warn Ye Ning of how dangerous the current situation was. His voice was even lower, with obvious fear: "Now that the human race is at the top, the commander of Wu Yu has been set up, and it is Jiang Kaixu who is in charge."

Ye Ning's gaze instantly sharpened, he gripped the edge of the table tightly, and his face turned pale. He felt a strong sense of crisis from Li Jingwu's words, realizing that humanity may be going through a process of regime change, and the position he stands in has become extremely delicate.

Li Jingwu didn't dare to look at Ye Ning anymore, he knew that he had already told too many secrets, but he also knew that for Ye Ning

Knowing the truth may be their only way out. At this moment, the conference room is full of tension and a sense of crisis, as if unpredictable changes may break out in the next moment.

Ye Ning stood on the side of the conference room, his gaze never taking his eyes off Li Jingwu. Hearing Li Jingwu's words, his heart tightened, as if thousands of thoughts were surging into his heart at this moment. He remembered the contradiction between Li Jingwu and Jiang Kaixu that people talked about a lot of years ago, when he was just a bystander and didn't speculate too much. But now, Jiang Kaixu's power has climbed to an unprecedented height, and those stories and rumors seem to have become true.

Ye Ning looked at Li Jingwu's back, the back that used to be straight seemed to be much stiffer now. He seemed to be able to see the panic and uneasiness in Li Jingwu's heart, he was worried about his life and status. Such Li Jingwu was in stark contrast to the Minister of Defense in Ye Ning's memory. The minister, who was full of confidence and domineering, seemed to have become a little person who was afraid of power at this moment.

A cold light flashed in Ye Ning's eyes, and he sensed the aura of fear emanating from Li Jingwu's body. The atmosphere that seemed so small and frightened in front of power seemed to tell Ye Ning that Jiang Kaixu's leadership had made the entire high-level feel panicked. He also seemed to understand why Li Jingwu chose to come to the conference room at this time. He no longer wants to show his majesty, but wants to use his low profile and obedience to show loyalty to Jiang Kaixu, hoping to get his forgiveness.

And that kind of submissive and cautious attitude also shows Li Jingwu's deep fear of Jiang Kaixu. He was afraid that he would suddenly "die" like Yu Xuanao and Fan Ruxian. Ye Ning took a deep breath, he knew that in the next few days, the high-level of the human race would experience an unprecedented storm, and he and Li Yishuang would also be in it, they had to act carefully, for themselves and their loved ones.

Ye Ning's heart was like a river overturning, but he still maintained a calm appearance. When he heard the movement outside the conference room, he knew that everyone else was coming here one after another. In this chaotic situation, Ye Ning decided to get to know everyone in the conference room first.

Ye Ning slowly returned to his seat, he sat upright, his eyes firmly staring at the direction of the door. People walked into the conference room one after another, they seemed to be cautious, but Ye Ning could see the nervousness and vigilance in their eyes. Everyone is looking for possible dangers, and they all know that the upper echelons of humanity are undergoing a drastic change at this moment.

Sure enough, as Li Jingwu said, Commander Wu Yu did not appear in the conference room. Looking at the empty high-end seat, Ye Ning had an ominous premonition in his heart. He understood that this vacant seat was probably a sign that a split had begun to emerge at the top of the human race.

Suddenly, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a powerful momentum rushed towards him. Ye Ning raised his head, only to see Jiang Kaixu striding into the conference room, with a serious and fierce look on his face. His eyes were like beasts, sweeping fiercely over everyone. Every step seemed so determined, as if no one could stop it.

Ye Ning looked at him, his heart full of vigilance. He knew that this one who walked in was not only the leader of Jiang Kaixu, who had just returned to the human world for only a year, but also a new rise of power.

In fact, Jiang Kaixu is also a bit "mutated". After all, he was also a person who had undergone surgery, but he was too far away for Wang Lei's brain waves to control him at that time. was tortured by the lion king and other animals, so that these mutations deeply remained in Jiang Kaixu's bones.

This is also a double-edged sword, which makes Jiang Kaixu after returning impulsively grumpy and not using his brain. But it also made his strength even better.

Jiang Kaixu opened his mouth and said, "I won't talk nonsense, and go straight to the topic. Ye Ning has returned from the Western Continent, and asked Ye Ning to share what he has seen and heard, and what dangers there are on the Western Continent."

Under the call of Jiang Kaixu, Ye Ning slowly stood up. He faced the room full of people, and his heart was full of determination. Ye Ning understands that this is not only a simple sharing, but also a practical action to prove his determination and decision.

In silent anticipation, Ye Ning began his statement. He shared his insights and experiences on the Western Continent at length, mentioning the animals that lived there and how they struggled to resist the ginseng that threatened their very existence

Sky Big Tree. He didn't forget to mention the terrifying destructive power, the threat that the tree posed to the entire planet.

There was concern in his tone, but at the same time there was firmness. Every word is as heavy as a stone, and every sentence is like a sharp arrow, piercing the listener's heart. Under his description, everyone in the conference room seemed to see the scene of the Western Continent and felt the thrilling atmosphere.

Then, Ye Ning mentioned his suggestion. He stressed the dangers of towering trees, and he made it clear that they had to join forces to find a way to eradicate them. He also mentions the animals of the Western Continent, who are willing to cooperate with humans to fight against the source of that troubled world.

"I came back mainly for two things, one was to provide some data on the towering tree and find a way to eradicate it. The second is to promote our cooperation with animals on the western continent." Ye Ning said slowly.
