Su Xiangyang was not foolish, he simply did not wish to tread the same path as before, a path that had cost him over a decade in vain.
This was why his state of mind was not complete, why he was no match for Song Qinglian, and why he could not advance further.
However, what he intended to do this time was quite simple: to continuously awaken the desires within his heart.
Ye Ningze, on the other hand, shook his head with a smile and directly told Su Xiangyang:
"Actually, there's no need for that. It's too troublesome. As long as you bring down the Song family, won't defeating Song Qinglian be as easy as turning your hand over?"
"Moreover, without the support of his family, do you think Song Qinglian can contend with you? There's no need for you to defeat him yourself. Don't you agree?"
After Ye Ningze finished speaking, Su Xiangyang before him fell into complete silence. He had to admit that what Ye Ningze said made sense, and he seemed to have been fixated on his inner demons for years.
This had only made things more difficult for him, and now it seemed time to resolve the issue at hand.
After a long while, Su Xiangyang spoke to Ye Ningze:
"I admit you have a point, but have you considered a concrete plan? Without a specific plan, achieving your goals is quite difficult."
Ye Ningze clapped his hands with a smile, and then a person emerged from behind him.
Su Xiangyang pointed at the person before him and said to Ye Ningze:
"Who is this? Is he your plan?"
Ye Ningze nodded with a smile and replied to Su Xiangyang:
"Of course he is part of my plan. The reason is simple: his surname is Song."
After Ye Ningze finished speaking, the shrewd Su Xiangyang immediately understood his meaning.
He hadn't expected Ye Ningze to have placed some eyes within their family for use at critical moments. If these eyes were to act, they would completely cripple these families.
Thus, Su Xiangyang spoke to Ye Ningze before him:
"Besides him, how many others are there? If it's only one person, I believe the strength is insufficient. So you must tell me if there are others in other families?"
Ye Ningze naturally would not tell him the truth, merely shaking his head with a smile and looking at Su Xiangyang in silence.
He was waiting for Su Xiangyang's final answer. If Su Xiangyang did not respond, then the matter would end there.
But if Su Xiangyang was willing to cooperate with him, Ye Ningze would treat Su Xiangyang as a blade in his hand.
Su Xiangyang finally gave his answer, pointing at Ye Ningze with a smile and nodding:
"You, you sly fox. It seems impossible not to cooperate with you this time."
"Since we are to cooperate, I need to know what your next steps are. After all, I am staking the entire Su family to work with you. If we lose, you know what our fate will be?"
Ye Ningze smiled faintly, then gently shook his head, his expression firm as he said to Su Xiangyang before him:
"Rest assured, we will not fail. So you don't need to worry about our fate. You only need to worry about what you will do when you truly control the entire Sun Base."
Soon, Su Xiangyang left satisfied. After Ye Ningze saw him out, he welcomed his second guest, who turned out to be the Supreme Elder of the Wu family.
The Supreme Elder of the Wu family was wearing black and smiling at Ye Ningze, while Ye Ningze smiled faintly and said:
"You're finally here. I've been waiting for you."
...
Thus, Ye Ningze began the next step of his plan. This step was extremely similar to the previous one. After persuading the Supreme Elder of the Wu family, Ye Ningze now held two Supreme Elders in his grasp.
In reality, Ye Ningze did not care about these Supreme Elders. What Ye Ningze cared about were the people he held in his hands, such as those he had placed in the Song family and the Wu family.
As for the Su family, there was Su Xue. If these people truly played their intended roles, it would be quite simple to manipulate these families at his whim.
After sending everyone away, Su Xue appeared before Ye Ningze and said with some worry:
"Ye Ningze, we've revealed all our trump cards to these people. Do you think it's really appropriate? What if it doesn't achieve the effect we expect, and it all comes to nothing?"
Unexpectedly, Ye Ningze slowly shook his head and replied to Su Xue before him:
"Rest assured, we will get what we want. Besides, as long as we find a way and utilize the pawns in our hands well, we will definitely be able to control the entire Sun Base."
"Then you won't have to marry someone you dislike, and the others won't have to suffer the disdain of their families."
After Ye Ningze finished speaking, Su Xue before him finally nodded heavily. The reason was simple: compared to these things, they cherished their freedom and dignity even more.
Su Xue believed that these people were willing to pay everything for their freedom and dignity, just like herself.
In fact, it wasn't Su Xue who had contacted them all along; these people had approached them on their own. The reason was simple: they wanted freedom, they wanted dignity, they wanted everything, so they would pay everything to change this world.
Ye Ningze gathered everyone around him and explained the current situation to them.
They responded with silence. They knew that by following Ye Ningze in this endeavor, they might have to pay with their lives, and perhaps not many of them would survive.
But what did it matter? What they wanted to do was to let these people know that those they looked down upon were actually more outstanding than them.
Zhao Chunhua was a prime example. It was known that Zhao Chunhua's talent was not limited to managing the family.
Even his talent in cultivation was not inferior. It was just that in recent years, he had been severely suppressed in terms of cultivation resources, which was why he ended up in this state.
Otherwise, if they were to truly discuss cultivation talent, Zhao Chunhua would definitely be far more formidable than all the current Zhao family members.
Therefore, after Ye Ningze finished speaking, Zhao Chunhua directly told everyone:
"No matter what you all think, I have only one thought: to make everyone who looked down on me pay. I want to tell them that I, Zhao Chunhua, am the most outstanding."
