The people who had been talking non-stop about how strong the Alliance was and how weak Lin Yi’s company was against the Alliance all fell silent.

Zhao Feng was the most troubled.

The situation had developed to this point and was completely out of her control.

They were as high-spirited as they were when they jointly fired Lin Yi, and now they were as dejected as they were.

Although the alliance army was barely formed under her repeated urging, the overall lineup and morale were far from what she had expected.

If they were to fight Lin Yi’s new alliance in this state, the result would be obvious.

However, the problem was that Zhao Feng had already put herself on the fire, and it was difficult to get off.

If she backed down now, it would be the same as lowering her head to Lin Yi in the eyes of others.

However, it would be fine if that was all. With her arrogant personality, it was not impossible for her to walk down the path until the end.

After all, the highest board of directors was not her family’s property. Even if it collapsed, it would not hurt.

No matter how much the giants complained in private, she could ignore them.

However, the reprimand from the inner court was different.

Looking at the two letters in front of her, Zhao Feng was dazed.

One of them was an official letter from the Inner Court. Although it did not specifically name anyone, the wording was extremely harsh.

At this critical juncture, if the highest board of directors were to fall into chaos, it would have a major impact on the overall situation of the entire Inner Court. In the letter, it was almost pointing at Zhao Feng’s nose and cursing.

The other was from the family behind her.

Her tone was still normal, but Zhao Feng could tell from her words that her family had suffered a lot of pressure for her.

If she didn’t end this matter quickly and get the situation back on track, she would really be in trouble.

Zhao Feng didn’t think that she would cause such a big commotion just because she was going to deal with Lin Yi. It was going to be her Waterfall!

“Am I really going to fall into his hands?”

Zhao Feng looked at the last reminder in the letter from her family, and her expression couldn’t help but change.

That part was about her life’s fate.

From the royal family to the inner court, everyone believed in the theory of fate.

As long as a family had a little bit of background, when their direct descendants were born, they would definitely ask someone to divine their fate.

The path of his life after that would be strictly designed according to his own destiny.

Of course, there were also people who did not believe in fate and tried to control their own destiny.

Zhao Feng was one of them.

According to the divination she made when she was born, she would meet the person who would change her life this year.

In the future, all of her future and fate would be closely related to that person. She could not break the connection.

Zhao Feng had always scoffed at this.

What a bullsh * t destined benefactor!

Her fate must be in her own hands.

It was also because of this that she took the initiative to take the job of being the vanguard. As long as the job was done well, she could enter the Hundred Seedlings Plan and accumulate a wave of great contributions.

At that time, she would have the opportunity to make an exception and inherit the family title as a woman, becoming the second female king with a different surname in the history of the Inner Court!

But now, the situation was completely different from what she had expected.

“Impossible!”

Zhao Feng gritted her teeth, but the thought of it made her feel powerless.

” What’s wrong?” Kong Shu’s voice suddenly came from behind.” If there’s anything troubling you, why don’t you tell me?”

“You?”

Zhao Feng’s eyes flashed with contempt.

Because of Kong Shenglin, Kong Shu was not completely insignificant in her eyes, but in the end, he was just a second generation living under Kong Shenglin’s wings.

She had seen too many of such people in the Inner Court. Any one of them had a much deeper background than Kong Shu, so she naturally disdained them.

Kong Shu chuckled and sat down on the rock opposite him. He said calmly,” I have a way to solve your worries. Would you like to hear it?”

“You?”

If it was before, Zhao Feng would not have cared at all. But today, she did not directly chase him away, but put on a tacitly listening posture.

“Do you know why the Alliance of Divine Colleges can’t defeat a mere Lin Yi?” Kong Shu smiled.

” Hmph!” Zhao Feng snorted.” What else could it be? It’s just that I’m not putting in any effort.”

Although she was arrogant, she wasn’t stupid. She could clearly see the attitudes of the other big shots other than Xi Rulai.

If they really worked together, even if they couldn’t defeat Lin Yi, they wouldn’t have ended up like this.

Kong Shu shook his head.” It’s not just about not putting in any effort. Gu Jiumu, Chu Hantian, and my father are actually standing on the opposite side of the special envoy this time.”

Zhao Feng was horrified.

Gu Jiumu and Chu Hantian were still acceptable. However, Kong Shenglin’s recent actions might not have openly opposed her, but without his acquiescence and his help from behind the scenes, the alliance’s situation would not have collapsed so quickly!

In other words, the three top giants were all on her opposite side. If an outsider like her could succeed, it would really be a ghost.

“Why are they against me?” Zhao Feng suddenly stood up.

“For the greater good.”

“Once the Heaven Ascension Formation is set up, you know very well what kind of impact it will have on the Divine Kingdom on land,” Kong Shu said seriously.

Zhao Feng frowned and said coldly,” So what if the Divine Kingdom on land is crippled? I can bring them to the inner palace. Isn’t it ten thousand times better than staying here?”

“Do you think my father and those two really care about this?” Kong Shu looked at him quietly.

Zhao Feng choked.

If it was anyone else who had the chance to enter the Inner Court, they would naturally be overjoyed.

After all, the Inner Royal Court was like a first-tier city to a small county to a Divine Kingdom on land.

If there was a chance to develop in a big city, many people would flock to it.

However, for those who stood at the top of the small county, that was another choice.

Even though there were more opportunities in big cities and the ceiling of big cities was higher, there were some things that big cities could not provide.

Moreover, even if they stayed in the small county, it did not mean that they would not be able to break the ceiling. They might just change their methods.

After a long time, Zhao Feng gritted her teeth and said,” The Sky Reaching Formation is directly related to the Inner Royal Court. How dare you go against the Inner Royal Court for your own selfish motives?”

Kong Shu shook his head repeatedly.” Don’t misunderstand, Mr. Envoy. We have no intention of going against the Inner Court. It’s just that if we want to carry out some things, we have to consider our feelings. After all, we are the ones who do the work..”
