Chapter 1146: 1146
Zhang Han calmed himself and began recounting everything slowly . Zhang Han spoke very slowly as he was afraid he would miss a critical detail that might affect the life or death of his elder brother . His actions meant that when he had decided to tell Ling Lan everything . He had already put his faith in Ling Lan’s words .
In reality, telling Ling Lan was the best chance he had to escape from that devil of an organization of his . If even General Ling Xiao couldn’t resolve this issue, then all hopes would be lost .
After Zhang Han told Ling Lan all that he knew, Ling Lan made Zhao Jun take Zhang Han to Lingtian’s isolation quarters .
Those who remained behind were all sitting in their chairs and doing their own things .
Ling Lan then sat up straight and asked, “What do you guys think about what Zhang Han said?”
“It’s clear that the spy organization has built quite a foundation in the Federation . There is quite a high possibility that someone from their organization is sitting on a very high-ranking position in the military . Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to influence the police system,” said Li Lanfeng with certainty . “After all, Zhang Han had probed the higher-ups of the police system using some of his evidence . If the police didn’t do anything with those evidence at hand, then that is enough to prove that the political connections of the organization aren’t that simple . ”
“Unfortunately, the organization is quite careful about their identity . The person or people who contact Zhang Han are either low-ranking members of the organization or spectral users who we cannot trace . ” Frowned Han Jijyun . “Although Zhang Han provided a lot of information, it still isn’t very useful for the next step of our plans . ”
“I am in favour of using the medicinal agent and interrogating him again . ” The calm personality who had taken over Luo Lang’s body, seemed to not be satisfied with the information Zhang Han had provided them . He still wanted to search for more that could be used .
“Zhang Han is still useful to me . We can’t turn him into a vegetable yet,” said Ling Lan as she shook her head . Although she spoke ruthlessly, in reality, she wasn’t planning on hurting Zhang Han and Zhang Chao from the very beginning
Although the information Zhang Han had in his mind was useful, Ling Lan didn’t necessarily need it . She just wanted to gather as much information as possible in order to prove what she had determined .
“Then, we can only depend on Wang Junzhi’s side,” the calm personality saw that Ling Lan wasn’t thinking about using that method of interrogation and could only speak out regrettably .
“Alright, you guys go make preparations . Remember to closely monitor the suspicious mecha clans and people . ” Ling Lan waved her hand to gesture that everyone should go do what they needed to do .
Not long after, Ling Lan was the only person left in the conference room .
Ling Lan crossed her arms in front of her chest, leaned back slightly on her chair and began to think deeply .
Suddenly, two fingers appeared on temples and it started to massage her temples lightly . The force behind the fingers was perfect . It made Ling Lan feel that her tensed up temples had loosened .

After being massaged for a few minutes, Ling Lan spoke up, “That’s enough, Lanfeng . ”
Li Lanfeng, who was behind her, smiled as he put his hands down . He turned and walked to Ling Lan’s left side .
Ling Lan already knew it was Li Lanfeng from the moment he returned to the conference room .
Ling Lan’s finger repeatedly tapped on the table as she thought about Ling Yi… After hearing what Zhang Han had said regarding the method of contacting that organization, she felt a certain familiarity . This made her think about the incident involving Ling Hua from many years ago .
Would that organization forget about Ling Yi? Back then, when Ling Hua betrayed the Ling family, it was for his talented son .
“Don’t let Ling Yi out of your sights,” said Ling Lan .
“I know . If Ling Yi makes any moves, I will be the first to know . ” Similarly, Li Lanfeng also placed a lot of importance on Ling Yi, especially because Ling Yi was behaving in a way that seemed like he had a lot of hatred for Li Lanfeng, Li Shiyu and Li Yingjie . His weird behaviour caused Li Lanfeng to become more guarded against Ling Yi . Despite Ling Yi trying his best to hide this side of him, how could he fool the sensitive Li Lanfeng .
The two of them stopped talking and closed their eyes as they sat on their chairs . However, those who knew the reality of it, knew that Ling Lan and Li Lanfeng had entered the virtual world once again . They watched over the entire base in the skies to wait for the spy organization to make another move . They were going to try to pluck out all of them from the base .
At that moment, Ling Xiao had also received information from a source of a report stating that a certain general in the military was a spy along with how this general had planned two assassination attempts on Ling Lan more than a dozen years ago . One of the two assassination attempts was a scare but the other time, he almost succeeded . Luckily, Ling Lan was blessed with luck of the gods and had somehow escaped . However, she was severely injured and needed three years to recover which forced Ling Xiao’s mentor to stay in the Ling family manor…
“General, this is big news . We must report it . ” He Xuyang saw the report and took a deep breath . According to the information written on the report, this general might not just be any general . If they were unlucky, that person could be at a similar point as Ling Xiao in a political standpoint .
“Report to who?” Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked .
“The First Marshal! Other than the First Marshal, the other two can’t be trusted,” He Xuyang said without hesitation . It would have been impossible for the sky to climb to the position of a general without the help of one of the marshals .
“The First Marshal?” Ling Xiao frowned, “That might not be a good idea, but…”
It was a chance to probe him!
Soon after, Ling Xiao sent the document to the First Marshal directly .
After a short while, Ling Xiao received the First Marshal’s call .
Ling Xiao accepted the call and a virtual screen appeared in front of him . The First Marshal’s strict and proud face appeared in front of Ling Xiao .
The First Marshal didn’t waste any time and asked, “What other evidence do you have?”
Ling Xiao said respectfully, “I just received the report and sent it to you First Marshal as soon as I could . ”
“Do you think this report is real or fake?” The First Marshal frowned intensely . He didn’t want spies within the higher-ups of the military as this would greatly affect the public image of the military . However, the information on the report was logical and evident . He couldn’t pass it off as a hoax .
“The source of the information is very reliable . ” After saying that, Ling Xiao’s expression suddenly became serious, “I still remember back then when my mission was leaked and Twilight laid a trap for me . Our ambush didn’t work and I was ambushed instead… That mission’s detailed time was only known by a few generals . That alone answers how I could have been ambushed . ”
“You think this spy is connected to the person who set the trap for you?” The First Marshal’s expression turned grave .
“Otherwise, they wouldn’t make a move on my son…” said Ling Xiao . Only his enemies would be worried that his son would take revenge after knowing the truth . That was why they wanted to get rid of the underlying threat and not leave any possibility of that happening
“You’re right . In that case, I’ll let you handle this matter,” said the First Marshal as he nodded in agreement . “It’s time to make them pay . I will give you the go-ahead for that . ” Back then, although Ling Xiao had escaped the trap, he had still wandered away from home for 16 years . Thinking about this made the First Marshal’s heart ache . Thus, he opened the gates of convenience to let Ling Xiao exact his revenge personally .
“Thank you, marshal . ” Ling Xiao’s facial expression quickly turned warm as a burst of gratefulness appeared on his face . As expected, Ling Xiao still wanted to personally exact revenge on the person who plotted the assassination on his son .
The First Marshal’s face then disappeared from the screen . Ling Xiao turned towards He Xuyang who was completely dumbfounded, shook his head and smiled, “That’s why I said this wasn’t a good idea . ”
