452: Factional struggle, no matter what means

"Leader, you're right. If someone is strong enough, so strong that no one can resist him, then he will become the heaven of the Human Alliance. At that time, all rules will be enforced according to the will of that individual powerhouse. Who becomes Director will simply be a matter of his word."

Que Tian looked at Lin Yang leisurely: "But the problem you overlooked, Leader, is that currently, within the Human Alliance, whether it's the Old Monsters' Faction or Director Song's Faction, absolutely no one possesses the overwhelming strength to crush everyone else!"

"Even the disadvantaged side doesn't have too much of a difference in overall strength."

"In this stalemate, if neither side can crush the other with absolute power, then naturally, they will resort to making difficulties in other detailed aspects!"

"After all, besides the Old Monsters' Faction and Director Song's Faction, there is also the Neutral Faction within the Human Alliance."

"And within the Neutral Faction are existences with extremely powerful individual strength. Although they don't participate in the usual internal disputes, they care about the positive development of the entire Human Alliance."

"Therefore, the competition for high-level positions in the Human Alliance is not as simple as imagined; it's not just about who is stronger winning the position."

At this point, Que Tian directly used Song Qingfeng as an example:

"For instance, Director Song. His strength is not among the strongest in the Human Alliance."

"Some of the candidates from the same period were even stronger than Director Song, but the reason Director Song won was because the Old Monsters' Faction could hardly find any other fault with him, thus earning him considerable support from the Neutral Faction, and he ultimately successfully assumed the position of Director of the Alien Management Bureau."

"And right now, Director Song hopes you acquire more merits and contributions, most likely because he doesn't want you to be caught with a handle in this regard."

"While merits and contribution points are not very useful, they can indirectly reflect a person's overall contribution to the Human Alliance. They still provide some advantage when competing for certain positions and when special events are involved."

After speaking, Que Tian looked at Lin Yang:

"Based on the above, I boldly speculate that Director Song probably wants to cultivate you to become the next Director of the Alien Management Bureau."

"After all, in the current Alien Management Bureau, there truly isn't a candidate with more advantageous conditions than you."

"..."

Lin Yang was silent for a moment: "Even so, it still ultimately depends on strength, right?"

"Leader, you possess both the Spatial Trait Talent and the Life Trait Talent, dual Supreme Talents. Is strength still a problem for you?"

Que Tian couldn't help but smile:

"Right now, Leader, you simply lack a bit of time to convert your talents into tangible strength."

"Leader, you have powerful backing, and you possess dual Supreme Talents, making you a perfect successor. If the Old Monsters' Faction cannot find any other faults in other detailed aspects, even if your strength is temporarily a bit lower, it can basically be said to be stable."

"This should also be the reason Director Song wants you to accumulate more merits and contributions."

After listening to Que Tian's explanation, Lin Yang recalled that Xiaoquan Assistant had previously mentioned that Song Qingfeng did not want him to have any blemishes on his resume, hoping he would have a perfect resume.

Now, combining this with Que Tian's words... "Could it be that Director Song really wants to cultivate me to become the next Director of the Alien Management Bureau?"

Lin Yang himself was a bit surprised.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's about eighty to ninety percent certain," Que Tian said with a smile. "It's precisely because Director Song knows how much a perfect resume can help, that he is cultivating you in the direction of perfection."

"If that's truly the case, then Director Song is thinking too far ahead. Although I don't know Director Song's exact strength, I estimate he could live for several hundred years or even longer without issue, right?" Lin Yang muttered.

"Hehe, Leader, you've underestimated Director Song's strength a bit. Existences at Director Song's level have extremely long lifespans," Que Tian chuckled.

"You know this much detail?" Lin Yang was somewhat surprised.

"Not detailed, just know a little bit," Que Tian shook his head. "What I know is still far from the true secrets."

"Then there's even less need to start thinking about cultivating a successor now, is there?" Lin Yang added.

"Normally, that's true. Barring any accidents, Director Song can continue to govern the Alien Management Bureau for a long time in his current position, but who made your conditions too excellent, Leader?"

Que Tian smiled slightly:

"Of course, it's also possible Director Song has other ideas."

"But no matter what, this is a good thing for you, Leader. Director Song is currently at his peak, and cultivating you so early, with Director Song's current strength, status, and the resources he controls, he will certainly pave the way for you."

Lin Yang immediately became speechless: "This is all up in the air; let's not talk about this for now."

"Leader."

Que Tian's expression suddenly became much more serious, and he said earnestly:

"Whether it's certain or not, you must be mentally prepared in advance. Once Director Song starts planning and strategizing, those with intentions will definitely discover it."

"Although it's absolutely a great blessing for you, similarly, you will also be targeted and troubled by the Old Monsters' Faction."

"That day, the silver-haired senior said that the older generation in the Ten Thousand Universes is not allowed to make a move against you, but that doesn't mean they won't try other methods to target you."

"If I'm wrong, then so be it. With the silver-haired senior's words, they won't easily provoke you. But if Director Song really intends to cultivate you, then their troubles for you will probably become much more severe."

At this point, Que Tian emphasized with a heavier tone:

"So, Leader, you must take this matter seriously. Once Director Song shows any signs of promoting and cultivating you, you must be prepared for the risk of being targeted, or even assassinated and ambushed at any time!"

Lin Yang was instantly startled: "Assassinated?"

"Yes, the competition for high-level positions within the Human Alliance is very cruel, and assassinations are very common, especially since the Old Monsters' Faction often stops at nothing to control the Alien Management Bureau."

Que Tian nodded, sighed, and then lowered his voice, speaking softly:

"I'll tell you an unverified rumor: it's said that when Director Song ran for Director, during the period before he officially took office, he encountered as many as three hundred sixty-four assassination attempts."

"At the same time, many other competitors who were not from the Old Monsters' Faction died due to various accidents."

This made Lin Yang gasp again: "That Old Monsters' Faction is so devoid of principles?"

Those who can participate in the election must be outstanding talents, like prodigies.

Did the people in the Old Monsters' Faction secretly assassinate the elites of the Human Alliance?

Did they treat their own people with such ruthlessness?

"That's why I said, Leader, you need to handle this carefully and prepare in advance."

Que Tian's tone was faint:

"The people in the Old Monsters' Faction have long lost their original intentions. They only prioritize their own interests and don't care about the lives of others. Honestly, some of them are no longer fit to be called human."

Hearing this, Lin Yang's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but ask: "Que Tian, you seem very displeased with those Old Monsters?"
