After the negotiation ended, the two parted ways.
Lu Jun went straight to a dimly lit secret meeting room.
Inside the meeting room, the leader who had previously come to inspect the base was surprisingly sitting at the front.
Listening to Lu Jun's report, he was silent for a long time, finally letting out a sigh:
"This is not a healthy way of cooperation. We lack extraordinary power of our own. Even if it's not efficient, it's still better to hold in our own hands. Relying on others everywhere is not the right way."
Lu Jun remained silent, as he was merely a small negotiator, such matters of national significance were not his place to speak on.
The leader, in a flat tone, instructed: "The harvest from this base is not insignificant. Call them and say our plan can begin."

Normally, the gates of Qianyun Temple were open, but recently they had closed early.
In the backyard of the temple, a faint explosive sound of air could be heard.
