The old man said slowly: "If you do anything, you must first distinguish between the enemy and me. Lu Shanmin is not our enemy, our enemies are those insatiable capital, those families who try to block the upward path of the lower class and want to enslave the lower class for generations."

"Our greatest advantage is not the capital, power and secrets we control, but we represent the interests of the lower class people or the elites at the bottom. They are the objects of our support and our greatest reliance."

The old man paused and continued: "Our biggest threat is not Lu Shanmin. Not to mention a Lu Shanmin, even ten or hundreds of Lu Shanmins cannot shake our foundation. Our real threat comes from the attitude above."

Han Ci raised his eyebrows slightly, "The attitude above"?

The old man nodded, "The organization has been developing for decades, and you really think that the above is unaware of it. Even if you are not very clear, there is always suspicion, but there is just not enough evidence."

"Of course," the old man continued: "The most fundamental reason is that what I just mentioned is that we represent not only ourselves, but a large number of people in this society. The pursuit of these people and the ability cannot find an outlet is a great social instability factor. Our existence gives these people hope, allowing them to see that they can break through the class through hard work, and at the same time, it is also a kind of comfort to them, which is what the above is happy to see."

The old man looked at Han Ci and said, "At the same time, the aristocratic families and emerging capital are becoming more and more powerful, and they control more and more resources, and the words are becoming more and more powerful. This is what the above does not want to see. To a certain extent, we are helping them do things that they want but are inconvenient to do."

Han Ci took a deep breath, he had never thought of this level. "What do you mean is that the above formed a tacit understanding with us"?

The old man frowned slightly and said after a while: "It's hard to say whether it's tacit understanding or not. It depends on what the people above think and what they think. That's why I said that our biggest threat comes from the attitude of the above."

Han Ci nodded slightly. After listening to the old man's words, he felt that his situation was too small and that the strength of the organization could not be threatened by a Lu Shanmin.

"So, Lu Shanmin's hidden danger is indeed not a big hidden danger."

The old man half lying on the recliner and slowly said, "His hidden danger lies in Lu Chenlong,

I hope Lu Chenlong won’t let me down.”

Han Ci said: "I'll do my job for Xia Bing and the others."

The old man waved his hand, "No need, since ancient times, the transfer of power will not be smooth, and the power obtained without fighting will be unstable. Besides, this is also a test for Lu Chenlong. No one can guarantee whether he can become my successor now, including me."

Han Ci nodded slightly and asked, "What if Lu Chenlong fails the test in the end?"

The old man's eyes flashed by and he said lightly: "If someone like him cannot be used, he can only kill him."

Han Ci frowned slightly, "If he can't use it, who should he cultivate?"

The old man said lightly: "For more than 30 years, I have secretly selected and trained more than 20 successors. Lu Chenlong is undoubtedly the most suitable, but it is not the only one. If it really doesn't work, I can only settle for the second best."

Han Ci nodded and asked with some concern: "How should Xia Bing arrange it?"

The old man smiled slightly, "If he really devoted himself to the organization, he would naturally have his place."

Han Ci frowned slightly and asked again: "What if he has ambition?"

The old man said calmly: "Then let him become the next stepping stone to gain a foothold."

Han Ci said: "Old sir, there is one thing that I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

The old man glanced at Han Ci and smiled and said, "Ma Juan is half of your apprentice, you plead for her."

Han Ci nodded, "I am also half of your apprentice, she is half of your apprentice."

The old man didn't say anything, closed his eyes and swayed gently on the bench.

Han Ci continued: "She knew she was wrong. This time she killed Wang Ren and his wife with her own hands."

The old man opened his eyes and said oh, "It's true that there has been progress."

Han Ci quickly said, "Why go abroad,"?

The old man said lightly: "Let her go abroad to protect her."

Han Ci said: "But for her it's like removing the list from the organization. You know the meaning of the organization to her. Letting her leave China completely makes it harder for her to accept than killing her."

The old man murmured: "For your sake, I will give her another chance."

Han Ci quickly said, "I will take Ma Juan to thank the old man."

The old man said lightly: "Don't rush to thank you first. Her identity has been revealed. If she wants to stay, go to Tianxing Squad."

Han Ci's heart was shocked, and his face turned pale in an instant. Tianxing Squad is the death squad of the organization. Once he joined, it means that he will live in darkness all his life and no more sunshine.

"Old sir, Ma Juan's personality may not be suitable."

The old man said slowly: "So before she joins the Tianxing Squad, she must complete a task."

"What mission"?

"A task she hasn't completed yet."

When Lu Shanmin opened his eyes, he saw a pair of big eyes staring at him. After thinking for a while, he remembered that the little girl staring at him was Wang Ren's daughter.

When Wang Yuan saw Lu Shanmin wake up, she laughed happily.

"Uncle, you're awake."

Lu Shanmin subconsciously wanted to sit up, and just as he moved a little, the severe pain came from none of the cells, making him gasp in a deep breath.

"You are Aunt Hai's husband"?

Lu Shanmin shook his head slightly.

Wang Yuan raised her mouth and looked at Lu Shanmin with sympathy, "Are you a mute?"

Lu Shanmin shook his head again.

Wang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Aunt Hai said that Dad was with you again, why didn't he come back with you? Where are others?"

"He," Lu Shanmin opened his mouth slightly, and he couldn't say anything when he was at his mouth.

The eight-year-old girl, her parents are her heaven and her land. He really couldn't bear to tell her that her parents were dead.

"Your parents go out to do something, and they will have to wait a few days before they come to pick you up."

The little girl looked unhappy and bit her lower lip tightly and asked, "How many days? Two days?"

Lu Shanmin said: "It may take many days."

Wang Yuan's mouth sagged, and tears suddenly burst out from her big watery eyes.

"Does mom and dad want Yuanyuan?"

Lu Shanmin quickly comforted him: "Of course not."

Wang Yuan raised her sleeves and wiped her tears, and said with a sob: "Dad said, be brave and not shed tears easily."
