238: Conflict at the high-level meeting!

Refining Weapon Pot: Capable of refining all things for one's own use. The user can place defeated enemies into the Refining Weapon Pot for refinement, or use it to refine Puppets for their own use.

The first ability of the Refining Weapon Pot is to extract the power from a defeated opponent's body to use as one's own power source.

The second ability is similar to the Zombification of refining zombies, but it is more Advanced.

Refining zombies can only be done with corpses that possess extremely heavy resentment.

However, the Refining Weapon Pot does not have this limitation.

No wonder, no wonder!

Song Zhong finally understood everything. He looked back in Shen Qingzhu's direction.

If based on the ability description, if Shen Qingzhu could survive the refining process and awaken, would he then become his Puppet?

This ability sounds so evil. It somehow feels like it doesn't quite suit someone as kind as himself.

But who cares?

As long as it's useful.

Song Zhong's lips curved upwards uncontrollably, "Shen Qingzhu, I'm truly looking forward to you more and more."

...

Shangjing City, Night Watcher Conference Hall.

Zuo Qing stood behind Ye Fan. The atmosphere in the hall was extremely tense.

"Ye Fan, you must give us a reasonable explanation this time. Anta County, was it just handed over by you?" one of the high-ranking officials said.

Before Ye Fan could reply, other elders immediately began to stir up trouble.

"That's right, for this operation in Anta County, you, Ye Fan, borrowed quite a few people from us. What was the result? How many came back alive?"

"Exactly, exactly. Not only were so many Night Watchers killed or injured, but you also lost Daxia's territory. Ye Fan, you are not fit to be the Night Watcher Commander."

"Yes, how can you face those Night Watchers who sacrificed themselves and the compatriots of Daxia? How can you face the gods who crippled their own cultivation to protect Daxia?"

Each condescending question was like a sharp blade, piercing into Ye Fan's heart.

Ye Fan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he swept a glance at the high-ranking officials present.

"Oh? I'm letting Daxia down?"

Ye Fan's gaze was cold, "Then may I ask, what were you doing when I was leading the Night Watchers in a bloody battle in Anta County?"

"Ye Fan, what do you mean by that?" One high-ranking official's face was a bit unsightly. "When we were sacrificing our lives for Daxia, you probably didn't even know where you were playing in the mud."

"Ye Fan, what's with that tone?" Another high-ranking official couldn't sit still. "Although you are the Night Watcher Commander, how can you not even understand basic manners?

We old guys are old, but which of our scars isn't more numerous than yours?"

After speaking, that high-ranking official directly tore open his shirt.

Gruesome scars, like centipedes, covered the old man's body.

"Zuo Qing, get Elder Zhao a coat to put on. Don't catch a cold." After Ye Fan spoke, Zuo Qing walked out of the conference room and closed the door.

After Ye Fan saw Zuo Qing leave, he slowly spoke:

"Now that it's just us, we can speak freely.

I know that in terms of merit, seniority, and contribution, everyone present is above me, Ye Fan.

But there's one thing I want to make clear in advance: the current stability of Daxia is largely due to your efforts.

However, constantly living in the past cannot guarantee Daxia's future."

Elder Zhao, who had been named, flushed red, "It seems Commander Ye thinks we old guys are in the way, doesn't he?"

Ye Fan shook his head, "Those who are in the way are those who love to indulge in pleasure yet love to point fingers. Elder Zhao, are you that kind of person?"

"I..." Elder Zhao was choked by Ye Fan's words. "Ye Fan, I voted for you when you became the Commander."

"Oh? Elder Zhao, I passed with a unanimous vote back then. To put it bluntly, did you dare to cast a dissenting vote at that time?" Ye Fan spoke coldly, not indulging Elder Zhao at all.

"You... Good, good, good. Old Qian, Old Qin, Old Sun, look, look at this. To what extent has this kid become arrogant now?"

Qin Senior saw that the situation was getting out of control and quickly spoke, "Ye Fan, what you just said was indeed a bit excessive. Elder Zhao is also thinking for Daxia.

Regardless of the reason, Anta County should not have been handed over."

With a bang.

Ye Fan suddenly slammed the table heavily.

"Alright then! If any of you can reclaim Anta County from Song Zhong, I will immediately give him my position as Commander."

Ye Fan looked around and asked, "All you've been doing is trying to make me step down from this position, right? Are you satisfied with this answer?"

The conference room was silent.

Several high-ranking officials looked at each other, not expecting that so many people would actually be intimidated by a young man like Ye Fan.

A hint of gloominess flickered in Qin Senior's cloudy eyes.

"Ye Fan, this is not a place to throw tantrums. What you just said was too irresponsible."

"I speak irresponsibly?" Ye Fan sneered twice.

"Zuo Qing, come in!"

The conference room door opened.

Zuo Qing walked in, but he wasn't carrying clothes. Instead, he was carrying a folder.

"Commander Ye, all the information you requested is here."

In the conference room, the high-ranking officials' gazes were all focused on the folder in Zuo Qing's hand.

Anything Ye Fan would bring out at this moment certainly wouldn't be anything ordinary.

"You may go out," Ye Fan said indifferently.

Zuo Qing quietly walked out, and the moment he closed the door, a smile played on his lips.

This smile was keenly caught by Qin Senior.

His brows furrowed tightly, and a bad premonition lingered in his heart.

"Since everyone says I'm irresponsible, then let me see what all of you responsible people have been doing during this time?"

As soon as Ye Fan said this, the expressions of some of the high-ranking officials immediately changed.

He opened the folder and read:

"Elder Zhao, on February 14th, you booked a suite at the Shangjing Courtyard and stayed for three full days. At this time, the Mask Squad and the Reserve Squad were risking their lives to gather intelligence in Fengdu Ghost City.

Elder Qian, on February 1st, your account received a huge transfer from the Baili Group. Afterwards, you flew to Jia'ao Island. I heard the casinos there are very luxurious.

Elder Sun, I heard you recently approved an adjustment plan from the Human Resources Department. There's a young man named Li Wei in it. His surname is from his mother, and his mother isn't married.

Who's the child's father? It's really hard to guess!

Qin Senior..."

"Enough!" Qin Senior interrupted Ye Fan, "Ye Fan, what a grand gesture. We really underestimated you."

"Haha, Qin Senior, you flatter me. As the Night Watcher Commander, it is my duty to care about the situation of every Night Watcher," Ye Fan said with a smile.

Qin Senior gave the others a look, "Today's meeting has been very long. We old bones can't take it anymore, so let's stop here."

"Then I won't see you out. Everyone, go back and rest well."

Ye Fan seemed to be rooted to his chair, not even moving.
