Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1615 - 1598: A Ridiculous Allocation

"It’s like this, in order to cope with this conference, the power of our European side has also united, but we lack a leader, so I came here to find you, hoping you could come forward and lead our European cultivation forces to attend the conference." After hearing Lin Feng’s question, Lei Yan immediately explained.

Everyone with Lin Feng understood what was going on after hearing his words. Lin Feng had already heard about some things regarding this conference, and it was represented by various forces. He didn’t have many people on his side, and now that cultivators from Europe had come to invite him, it saved him a lot of trouble.

"Alright, I agree." Looking at Lei Yan, Lin Feng responded calmly, as if agreeing to a trivial matter.

"That’s great! Mr. Lin, please come with me, the family heads from other forces in Europe are all waiting for you." Lei Yan was stunned for a moment after hearing Lin Feng’s words, not expecting him to agree so readily. But he soon regained his composure and immediately invited Lin Feng to meet with the various family heads to discuss specific matters.

"Lead the way." Lin Feng said simply, not caring much. In fact, Lin Feng also wanted to see what the forces in Europe were like, so since there wasn’t anything pressing at the moment, he decided to bring everyone along to take a look.

Lei Yan was very excited at this moment; he had witnessed firsthand how powerful Lin Feng was. With Lin Feng stepping in for this conference, they saw hope. Without thinking too much, he immediately led the way for Lin Feng and everyone proceeded to the camp of the European cultivation forces.

Before long, they arrived at their destination. Looking around, this area was filled with over a dozen tents of European style, with a very large tent in the middle surrounded by many cultivators. Most of them were Transcendent Realm powerhouses, and the attire of people from the same force had the same color scheme, easily identifiable.

"Dean Ding, Dean Leng, please forgive me. I hope you and the others can roam around nearby. I will take Mr. Lin inside to meet with the other family heads." Lei Yan said as they approached the largest tent. Inside were the family heads of various Prominent Families. Lin Feng could enter without any issue, but if others entered, it might displease other cultivation families.

Ding Wan’er and Leng Mei nodded after hearing Lei Yan’s words. They didn’t say anything and immediately led the others to wander around. Inside were family heads, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for them to enter. It was better to let Lin Feng go in alone.

Lin Feng didn’t say anything and followed Lei Yan into the tent.

As soon as he entered the tent, Lin Feng immediately drew everyone’s attention. In the time Lei Yan went out to find Lin Feng, they had roughly learned about Lin Feng’s identity from various channels. They knew Lin Feng was truly a super powerhouse, and he didn’t belong to any force. Because the time was too short, they hadn’t figured out the details, but one thing was certain; Lin Feng definitely qualified to lead this affair.

Although they knew Lin Feng was very young, they were all utterly shocked when they saw him in person. They couldn’t believe Lin Feng appeared to be under twenty, which stunned them. Family heads from several small Prominent Families came forward one after the other to greet Lin Feng.

"Hello, Mr. Lin!"

"Hello, Mr. Lin!"

...

The simple thought of these family heads from small Prominent Families was if they could form a connection with someone like Lin Feng, they would naturally be very happy. They all wanted to leave a good impression on Lin Feng.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, thank you for coming." At this moment, Yue Feng also came forward to express goodwill to Lin Feng. He knew a little more than others; Lin Feng had once defeated a Human Immortal Realm powerhouse. Although it was hard to believe Lin Feng was also a Human Immortal Realm powerhouse, the fact was undeniable.

Thus, from the perspective of the Yue Family’s Family Head, such a super powerhouse should never be offended. Furthermore, efforts should be made to win him over, with the only purpose being to establish friendship with Lin Feng.

But while everyone else came forward to greet him, one person remained seated on his chair, who was the Feng Family Patriarch, Feng Shangkun. He had also sent people to investigate Lin Feng, but the result returned left him in disbelief. They said Lin Feng defeated Human Immortal Realm powerhouses and that Lin Feng was more formidable than the ancestors of the four major families, and invincible in the Hidden World. How could such things happen? Everyone must be exaggerating Lin Feng’s prowess.

Therefore, when he saw Lin Feng, he indeed did not pay much attention. To him, no matter how impressive Lin Feng was, he was just a Divine Change Realm powerhouse. Human Immortal Realm powerhouses have long been unseen, and the ancestor of the Feng Family had already reached Half-Step Human Immortal Realm. He didn’t see a need to show Lin Feng any deference.

Lin Feng noticed Feng Shangkun’s behavior but didn’t say anything. After greeting the family heads, he sat down next to Lei Yan.

"Since Mr. Lin is here, let’s discuss the matters of this conference. If anyone has ideas, feel free to share." At this point, Feng Shangkun stood up and slowly addressed everyone. No one knew exactly what this conference would entail, but that didn’t mean there wasn’t anything to discuss.

Hearing Feng Shangkun, many family heads paused, not understanding what he meant. Right now, they knew nothing, so what was there to discuss? But just as they were at a loss, a voice rang out.

"Then let’s start discussing the division of our interests, which is our primary concern." At this point, a minor family head received a glance from Feng Shangkun and took the initiative to raise the topic.

This topic was indeed of great concern to everyone. Coming all the way from Europe, their ultimate goal was to vie for the first opportunity to enter the new world. Bringing it up for discussion now was fitting.

"I think that with a total of seventeen families participating from Europe, allocations should be made based on families as units." Another minor family head stood up, considering family interests, naturally hoping to secure more shares.

"Patriarch Li, you’re dreaming too much. Your family has only about a hundred people, with the most powerful in the mid-Infinities Realm, wanting to share equally with a force like the Feng Family. Your appetite is far too large!" At this time, another minor family head rebutted, asserting that his family had over two hundred people, and he wasn’t willing to share equally, let alone with the Feng, Lei, and Yue Families!

"Regarding this distribution, I think it’s better for everyone to take time to discuss it."

"I agree with that view, everyone quiet down and let Patriarch Feng speak."

"I concur; as minor families, we should know our position. This time, Patriarch Feng will take the lead on this matter. Let’s hear his opinion first."

...

Other minor family heads spoke up, trying to remain relatively composed. While they wanted more quotas, with the three major families of Feng, Yue, and Lei present, these minor families were content with getting a share of the benefits, hence shifting focus to Feng Shangkun.

In their eyes, Feng Shangkun held the main authority among European cultivation forces, so naturally he should make a statement. As for Lin Feng, who was invited here, they didn’t take him too seriously, thinking some other form of compensation should suffice, as chances to enter the new world were too rare to leave to Lin Feng!

"Mr. Lin, this... my apologies, Europe is different from Huaxia..." Lei Yan felt awkward seeing people’s behavior and apologized to Lin Feng, hoping he wouldn’t be upset. He couldn’t help it, dealing with minor families from Europe was beyond his influence.

"No problem." Lin Feng replied calmly, not bothered at all, viewing these so-called family heads as a bunch of silly monkeys who directed and acted in their foolish play. He treated it all as a joke.

Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Lei Yan finally felt relieved, but as he was about to speak, Feng Shangkun’s voice rang out.

"Quiet, everyone!"

The voice wasn’t loud but clear enough, and immediately the tent fell silent as everyone turned their eyes to Feng Shangkun, waiting for his next words.

"For this conference, Europe will secure some quotas, though the exact division in the new world is still unknown. This is my thought: divide the Alliance’s share into ten portions. My Feng Family will take three shares, Yue Family and Lei Family will each take two, and the remaining families will together share three." His gaze swept across the crowd as Feng Shangkun stated smugly. In his view, this allocation was the best plan; as the leading family of European cultivation forces, the Feng Family deserved more shares, and granting three-tenths to these minor families was a considerate offer.

Hearing Feng Shangkun’s distribution method, the faces of the thirteen minor family heads changed. Together, they were expected to split only three-tenths of the shares; it was humiliating and impossible to apportion adequately. Why could the Feng Family alone occupy three-tenths? What kind of proposal was that? Clearly hoarding!

Though they were very angry inside, they dared not show it. The Feng Family’s power was indeed formidable, and they didn’t want to upset Feng Shangkun, fearing repercussions should they return to Europe and find themselves in trouble, possibly unable to protect their families!

Yue Feng frowned upon hearing this proposal, feeling Feng Shangkun’s arrangement was quite inappropriate, neglecting Lin Feng in the matter. This was bound to provoke Lin Feng; if he represented their united force at the conference, the plan would be a farce.

But after thinking it through, he still chose not to speak. Feng Shangkun might have reasons for this arrangement unbeknownst to him. Besides, with the Yue Family granted two shares, he was quite satisfied and thus wasn’t inclined to voice opposition against Feng Shangkun at this time.

However, the silence of the minor family heads and Yue Feng did not mean Lei Yan would stay quiet.
