Although the benefits Li Ling mentioned were very tempting, it was far too risky.

He wouldn't risk his only chip on this gamble.

Winning a bet means making a fortune, but losing means you have absolutely no chance.

He is currently at a disadvantage, but he is not completely without a way out.

He certainly wouldn't go all in!

Seeing Bing Lin's attitude, Li Ling gritted his teeth and stamped his foot, making a decision that went against his ancestors' wishes.

"Third Young Master, I have a secret to tell you."

Li Ling quickly approached Bing Lin and whispered something in his ear.

"Oh~~"

Upon hearing this, Bing Lin became somewhat interested.

"Go down first."

He waved his hand and spoke directly.

The maids all agreed and left immediately.

"This..."

Li Ling looked at the man standing beside an ordinary wooden stake and felt slightly embarrassed.

"A Cheng is my absolute confidant, you can speak your mind directly."

Seeing Li Ling's expression, Bing Lin spoke up directly.

"Yes."

Now, Li Ling has no other way out but to go down this path to the bitter end.

"That's how it is..."

Li Ling quickly revealed his family's biggest secret to Bing Lin.

To revive the Li Clan, external forces are needed.

The Ice Clan is Li Ling's biggest target.

Of course, the main reason was that he didn't have enough wealth to use the Spatial Channel again.

Within this Bingyun City, apart from the behemoth that is the Ice Clan, no other force possesses the strength to eliminate the Kunlun Alliance.

After all, within Bingyun City, there is only one dominant force.

The strength of the Ice Clan is the sum total of all other forces in Bingyun City combined.

Therefore, they were able to become the absolute overlords of Bingyun City, without worrying at all about other forces wanting to overthrow the Heavenly Gang.

"Really?!"

Upon hearing Li Ling's secret, Bing Lin's expression brightened, and he asked with some surprise.

It would be far too risky for him to rely solely on his own trusted men to confront the Kunlun Alliance in Jinshan City.

But if there are other benefits, then it's a different story.

Because this could be his bargaining chip to persuade his family.

After all, the Ice Clan didn't want to make a big fuss in Jinshan City simply because there was no benefit to it.

If there are truly enough benefits, they would be willing to take the risk no matter how dangerous it may be.

If they don't even have this much fighting spirit, then the Ice Clan could never have become the overlord of Bingyun City.

"That's right, that's what my father told me himself."

In order to gain the support of the Ice Clan, Li Ling dared not hide anything.

They directly revealed the Li Clan's biggest secret.

"Are you sure that thing won't fall into the hands of the Kunlun Alliance?"

Although she was already quite tempted, Bing Lin still asked a question.

"Definitely not!"

"Without the strength of Dou Zun, it is absolutely impossible to open that Secret Chamber."

Unless one has direct blood from the Li Clan."

Upon hearing Bing Lin's question, Li Ling answered decisively.

"Good!"

Upon hearing this guarantee, Bing Lin immediately stood up.

"Don't move around here, I'm going back to the family right away."

Bing Lin didn't even bother to enjoy himself; he immediately led his trusted confidants towards the Ice Clan residence.

This is his chance.

After all, he was only the third young master of the Ice Clan.

There are two older brothers.

Without making any achievements, it's virtually impossible to seize power and rise to a position of authority.

And this time, it's a perfect opportunity to make a contribution.

This would both weaken the Kunlun Alliance, secure benefits for Jinshan City, and enhance the prestige of the Ice Clan.

They will also obtain the Li Clan's secret treasure, significantly increasing the Ice Clan's strength.

Bing Lin was very confident that he could persuade the family's higher-ups to agree to this win-win situation.

The Ice Clan's elders' meeting room.

"Third Young Master, what brings you to summon us this time, using your power as the heir of the family?"

The Great Elder of the Ice Clan asked directly.

The selection of a successor in the Ice Clan is different from that of other factions.

Most other factions follow a primogeniture system, or in a few cases, they choose the one with the strongest talent.

However, the Ice Clan is different; they have a selection system.

Several descendants of the family compete together.

Whoever performs the best and brings the most benefits to the family will be the next patriarch.

To give these competitors a chance to demonstrate their abilities, the Ice Clan stipulated that all family competitors would have one right.

A meeting that none of the elders could refuse.

As for how to get the elders to follow one's arrangements during the meeting, that depends on the competitor's skills.

This time, the Ice Clan's three thousand members chose to take a gamble.

After all, she's already at a disadvantage, and if she doesn't quickly achieve something, she might never be able to turn things around.

However, this gamble turned out to be quite good.

After all, the benefits are still visible.

"I'm using this right primarily because I have a plan."

Bing Lin didn't keep anyone in suspense and went straight to stating his purpose.

After all, these elders are basically among the most powerful people in the Ice Clan.

Apart from the family patriarch and those Supreme Elders of stability, no one in the Ice Clan has the authority to match that of these elders.

If most of them are dissatisfied, they even have the right to overthrow the family heir.

Bing Lin is currently only the third successor, who is not in a dominant position, so naturally he dares not keep these elders in suspense.

"Is that so..."

Bing Lin didn't hide anything and directly explained the secret treasure that Li Ling had mentioned.

At the same time, he also explained his offensive against Jinshan City and the potential benefits he might gain.

The purpose was to attract the attention of these elders and get them to agree to his plan.

"What you're describing is indeed profitable."

Upon hearing Bing Lin's words, the Third Elder also spoke up.

The other elders nodded in agreement with what the Third Elder said.

After all, this wasn't meant to flatter Bing Lin, but rather to state the facts.

"This Millennium Ice Silkworm is indeed a treasure to us."

This will greatly enhance the Ice Clan's foundation.

But..."

The Great Elder also agreed, but unfortunately, there was a "but" at the end.

Upon hearing this "but, "Bing Lin's heart tightened instantly.

"How can you be sure that the Millennium Ice Silkworm is still there?"

The Great Elder's words indeed hit Bing Lin's sore spot.

This is something he truly cannot be certain of.

After all, this was just a benefit offered by Li Ling, and no one could guarantee that the Millennium Ice Silkworm really existed.

Bing Lin wasn't unaware of this before; he was very clear about it.

He's a smart man; otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to disguise himself and persevere in this competition.

Even though they're at a disadvantage, at least they haven't been eliminated yet.

The reason he decided to take the gamble was...

It's simply because he has no other options right now.

Take a gamble; if you win, it will be a huge contribution to the family, and you might even turn your life around and become the most advantageous heir.

If the gamble is lost, the family's strength will also be affected.

His own trusted confidants can still be guaranteed.

This will worsen his resume, but he's already the worst heir option anyway.

It can't be any worse. How much worse could it get?

As long as one's trusted followers remain, there is still a chance to turn the tide.

In this situation, he naturally wanted to take a gamble.

"Yes, I really can't guarantee that."

But in this world, what can be absolutely guaranteed?

If there's a 50% chance, then it's absolutely worth taking the gamble.

Bing Lin quickly offered a reason for himself.

"Moreover, this Kunlun Alliance, which rose from Hanshan City, is merely a Dou Zong force."

With the strength of our Ice Clan, dealing with them shouldn't be a problem."

This is the biggest reason for the Bing Lin.

After all, the Ice Clan is the most powerful family in Bingyun City, and their resources are unmatched by any other ordinary force.

Moreover, it has a powerful backing – the Ice River Valley.

There are quite a few experts within the family.

Although there is no Dou Zun Battle Master) in charge yet, there are more than two pairs of experts at the Dou Zong) level.

There are also Advanced Dou Zong (Battle Masters).

Moreover, they don't necessarily have to deal with the Kunlun Alliance alone.

There are other forces within Bingyun City.

Each side could send two experts to wipe out the Kunlun Alliance; that shouldn't be a problem.

As expected, all the elders fell silent upon hearing Bing Lin's reason.

They looked at each other.

Ultimately, their gaze fell upon the Great Elder in the highest position.

With so many eyes on him, even though he was already Dou Zong expert, the Great Elder felt a little uncomfortable.

"Since we've come this far, let's proceed according to the rules."

Who's in favor? Who's opposed?

The Great Elder did not issue a direct and arbitrary order, but instead asked all the elders to make the decision together.

After all, this is a rule that the family established in the beginning.

He naturally had no interest in causing damage.

After all, if we follow the rules, whatever the consequences may be, that's Bing Lin's problem.

If he breaks the rules, he, as the Great Elder, will be the one to bear the consequences.

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

"Me too!"

Before long, all the elders who participated in the meeting made their decisions.

They almost all chose the plan to create Bing Lin.

That's normal.

After all, no matter what, Bing Lin is the third heir of the family.

You always have to give them some face.

How can you determine whether someone is a good-for-nothing or a genius if you don't give them a chance to prove themselves?

"Okay, now that a decision has been made."

"Then you'll be in charge of arranging the rest."

After reviewing the choices of all the elders, the Great Elder spoke up.

"Thank you Great Elder, and thank you all, Elders."

Bing Lin also thanked all the elders very respectfully.

This opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime chance for him.

Before this, he had always been suppressed by his two older brothers and had not had many opportunities to show his abilities.

After all, you can't just run around in the street and shout it out if you want to prove you're a genius.

Whether one is a genius or a mediocre person requires actual experience to prove it.

Having made his decision, Bing Lin naturally wouldn't sit idly by. He immediately gathered his forces and began preparations to head to Jinshan City to confront the Kunlun Alliance and obtain the Millennium Ice Silkworm.

Relying on the Ice Clan's reputation, Bing Lin quickly gathered manpower from other forces within Bingyun City.

Seeing that it was Bing Lin in charge, the people from other forces naturally understood what was going on.

After all, the selection method for the Ice Clan's heir is quite famous in Bingyun City.

Relying on the prestige of the Ice Clan and various promises, Bing Lin also received assistance from other forces.

The addition of more than a dozen Dou Emperor and a Dou Zong expert has greatly increased the strength of this team.

In addition, there are three Dou Zong experts from the Ice Clan themselves.

There were four Dou Zong experts and dozens of Dou Emperor experts.

This force is more than capable of destroying Jinshan City.

After all, they didn't know that behind the Kunlun Alliance was Wang Chen, a transmigrator with an overpowered ability.

Three days later, after all the personnel had been gathered and organized, it was finally time.

Although Bing Lin was a little anxious, he also understood that these things couldn't be rushed.

Thorough preparation is essential to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, the other forces are not members of the Ice Clan, so it's impossible for them to be unprepared for the sole overlord of Bingyun City.

The reason for choosing to help Bing Lin was merely to save face for the Ice Clan and to casually gain some benefits.

The necessary precautions are still necessary.

After reorganizing his troops, Bing Lin led a large group of soldiers and marched towards Jinshan City.

After the Kunlun Alliance took control of Jinshan City, it did not sever the Spatial Channel to Bingyun City.

After all, this represents a huge benefit for the region, and also serves as a bridge for communication with other places.

At this moment, Bing Lin's team also used the Spatial Channel to quickly head towards Jinshan City.

Jinshan City, the Kunlun Alliance's branch Headquarters.

Because all other resistance forces had just been wiped out, Jinshan City was slightly more desolate than usual.

However, the problem isn't particularly serious.

After all, this wasn't the first time the Kunlun Alliance had ruled over various cities.

He naturally knew how to quickly restore a city.

As Wang Chen's most valued assistant, Wang Qiang, the nominal leader of the Kunlun Alliance, was currently working at the Headquarters.

The former rulers were wiped out, and the Kunlun Alliance naturally had to take on this responsibility.

However, after so many conquests and conquests of other cities, Wang Qiang had long since developed a set of experiences.

Based on his past experience, he carried out the procedure step by step without any problems.

Everything is moving in a positive direction.

However, at this moment, he was unaware that a powerful force was heading towards the Kunlun Alliance in Yinjin Jinshan City.

Even if I knew, I'd be surprised at most, but definitely not scared.

After all, Wang Chen had already left behind a master to oversee the construction of the Spatial Channel.

As long as they don't exceed the Half-Saint, they will absolutely not threaten the Kunlun Alliance's rule over Jinshan City.

"Call out!!!"

At the entrance to the Spatial Channel in Jinshan City, a silver vortex formed, and a spaceship emerged from it.

A large group of people then emerged directly from the spaceship and landed in Jinshan City.

Apart from the four elderly men who floated down, the rest were all experts with Battle Qi Wings.
