Chapter 1254: Chapter 1254: General and Elder (Double Chapters) _2

Song Xiaodong didn’t mind, the more Lin Feng acted this way, the more he appreciated him, indicating that people from Dragon Gate had principles and weren’t blindly obedient.

And for someone like General Lin Feng to recognize him as the Young Master, one can imagine just how powerful Dragon Gate must have been at that time.

Lin Feng asked at this moment, “This time when you went to Senaga, who from the Dark Night Sect came to deal with you?”

Song Xiaodong didn’t hide anything and roughly recounted what happened, but, of course, he didn’t mention the humiliating treatment involving Qingluan at the end.

“Qingluan… the younger generation of the Dark Night Sect is rising too.” Lin Feng’s face showed a worried expression, then he looked at Song Xiaodong and gave a thumbs-up, saying, “You managed to escape from someone with Great Perfection skills; I must say, I’m impressed!”

Song Xiaodong smiled faintly and then looked at Lin Feng, saying, “General Lin, I want to ask, what is your current strength?”

Lin Feng’s face showed a faint smile, saying, “I only have Three Meridians of True Qi.”

“Three…” Song Xiaodong’s face turned dark at once. From Qingluan’s mouth, he already knew that after reaching True Qi Great Perfection, new True Qi would be generated. Achieving the Great Perfection of just one True Qi was already considerably difficult, and Lin Feng had three; what a terrifying existence.

Lin Feng smiled faintly and said, “You don’t need to be surprised. Actually, the hardest part is the first Great Perfection; it’s the foundation of everything. Once you reach perfection the first time, it won’t be as difficult after that.”

Song Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, “Sounds easy, but Qingluan is younger than me, and as a Princess of the Dark Night Sect, she reached that level. I’m the Dragon Gate Young Master, yet the difference is too great?”

Lin Feng laughed heartily, took out a small booklet, and handed it to Song Xiaodong, saying, “These are my insights over the years, mostly the reflections before Great Perfection. Go back and look at it yourself. This requires your own understanding and opportunity. Your comprehension is quite strong, and you can innovate on your own; your opportunities are also not lacking.”

“The Princess of the Dark Night Sect is stronger now because she has had more resources since childhood and started earlier, while you started later. But catching up to her shouldn’t be a difficult task.”

Song Xiaodong quickly snatched the booklet, so fast as if fearing Lin Feng would take it back, which surprised both Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin, as they had never seen Song Xiaodong so eager before.

Jin Zhengguo and Lin Feng smiled knowingly, watching Song Xiaodong.

Others might not understand, but for Song Xiaodong, who just escaped from a significant power gap, he was longing for this kind of thing.

If it were a master of Lin Feng’s age, he could accept it a bit. But Qingluan being so strong made Song Xiaodong feel the gap, so he wanted to become stronger now.

Song Xiaodong felt a bit over the top with his expression, gave a dry laugh, and said, “I lost my composure.”

Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin couldn’t help but want to laugh. Song Xiaodong’s awkward appearance was quite rare, but with two generals present, they dared not laugh.

Jin Zhengguo sternly said, “Song Xiaodong, let’s discuss some serious matters now.”

Song Xiaodong quickly adjusted his posture and said, “General, please speak.”

Jin Zhengguo nodded and said, “You now not only bear the important responsibilities of your family but also carry the burden of Dragon Gate, and both are not light. We in the military won’t interfere with family matters, but Dragon Gate matters have always had close cooperation with our military. So, in the future, I hope you will maintain this cooperation with us.”

Song Xiaodong seriously said, “I have said, I am a member of Dragon Thorn, and even if I am the Young Master of Dragon Gate, I will not forget my responsibility as a Dragon Thorn team member.”

Jin Zhengguo nodded and said, “I trust what you say. But since you are the Dragon Gate Young Master, you will need to consider Dragon Gate more in the future. Dragon Gate matters are above Dragon Thorn because Dragon Thorn is just a regular special forces unit for normal military operations, while Dragon Gate can do things Dragon Thorn cannot.”

“I understand!”

“Of course, the military will also provide some convenient conditions for Dragon Gate. If you need anything, you can let us know.”

Song Xiaodong thought for a moment and said, “Honestly, I don’t know what to strive for Dragon Gate right now. My main issue is improving myself, just as General Lin Feng said. My current strength is far from sufficient to bear the burden of Dragon Gate. Raising conditions would be of no benefit but a distraction.”

Jin Zhengguo and Lin Feng exchanged a glance full of appreciation. Jin Zhengguo continued, “That’s not urgent. You can bring it up anytime and then discuss with Lu Lang; we will arrange from our side.”

Song Xiaodong nodded, “That would be great, I wouldn’t need to contact others.”

“The Dark Night Sect has become more active in recent years, which is very detrimental to our country. This is not something that can be solved at the military level. For dealing with them, our military urgently needs Dragon Gate to thrive, so your burden is indeed not light.”

Song Xiaodong stood up immediately, puffed out his chest, and said loudly, “I will work hard, make Dragon Gate prosperous soon, and will not disappoint the Senior Officer’s expectations.”

Jin Zhengguo stood up, nodded, and said, “Good! Very good!” Then he added, “I won’t disturb you further with matters of Dragon Gate today.”

Jin Zhengguo, representing the military, came to discuss this with Song Xiaodong, so after saying what needed to be said, he left to allow Song Xiaodong and Lin Feng to communicate.

“Alright, no need to be formal now.” Lin Feng waved his hand, saying, “Behind closed doors, we’re family, so ask whatever questions you have, I’ll tell you whatever I can.”

Song Xiaodong chuckled, “Only what you can answer, seems like a lot you can’t answer.”

Lin Feng smiled and looked at Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong also smiled and said, “I want to ask, do I and the four Princesses really need to retrieve the Dragon Gate treasure?”

“This must be retrieved. In the Dragon Gate treasure, there are not only rare treasures but also some heavenly and earthly treasures. The True Qi you learn, these heavenly and earthly treasures will be prepared for you.”

“So, what you’re saying is… the True Qi I learn is arranged by you?” Song Xiaodong’s face turned dark.

“It should be said that this was arranged by our Dragon Gate, and letting you experience so much in the military was to let you build a solid foundation; otherwise, how else could you have improved so quickly lately?”

Song Xiaodong touched his nose and said, “Why do I feel like my whole life is more like a setup?”

Lin Feng said, “This is a setup. We must nurture a super Sect Leader to confront the Dark Night Sect, and judging from the current situation, everything we’ve done has been quite right.”

“Does that mean I have lived under your watch, and what about the Princesses?”

As soon as Song Xiaodong mentioned this, Feng Kexin and Qi Lanqin tensed up, their hands clasped together.

Lin Feng said, “We only know where another Princess is now, but one is missing. We haven’t found her whereabouts so finding the last Princess is also your responsibility.”

Song Xiaodong immediately asked, “Where is the third Princess?”

“The third Princess…” Lin Feng’s expression turned a bit odd, “You might find it a bit challenging to deal with this Princess.”

“Difficult?” For Lin Feng to say the word “difficult,” it must be something not simple.

Lin Feng nodded and said, “I’ll send you her information.”

As Lin Feng sent the information, Qi Lanqin, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke, “General Lin, since you’ve always known about our situations, why did our foster parents happen to pass away?”

Song Xiaodong and Feng Kexin’s faces changed immediately!
