Chapter 578: The Turbulence in the Council Chamber
Bryant leaned on his cane with both hands, his eyes slightly lowered, and said calmly, "I don't care what you young people do. I only have one request: don't let the situation in this federation, which has finally been stabilized, fall into chaos again."
Lu Yun heard the faint warning in the other party's words, smiled silently, and replied: "If the external threat is not eliminated, no matter how peaceful it is, it will be nothing but a mirage."
Bertwood's expression completely sank.
Not long after.
There was a sound of footsteps outside.
Jun Qingshan and his men arrived after receiving the news.
Jun Qingshan pulled out a chair and sat down next to Lu Yun.
Next came Garnard, the head of the Hersefner family.
He took a quick look with a secretary, smiled, and pulled out a seat on the other side of Lu Yun and sat down.
Then the chief of the Coconut Grove tribe came with Rao Yan.
"Haha, Councillor Lu, you didn't even come over to sit with us when you came back. My Rao Yan always talks about you to me, saying that you are the role model of the current Federation and that I should learn from you."
Lu Yun smiled and nodded in response.
Jun Qingshan smiled and stood up to greet him, pulling open the seat next to him and inviting him to sit down: "Brother Raoyuan, please take a seat quickly."
Rao Yuan nodded happily to Bryant and sat down next to Lu Yun.
Not long after, Mrs. Liu from the Liu family came in with the support of a woman.
"Councilor Lu is so majestic. I'm here. If you have anything to say, please say it quickly."
Madam Liu said this lightly and walked to the opposite side to sit down.
The Niemi tribe also arrived, took a look at the two clearly divided sides, and sat down opposite in silence.
Then half an hour.
The family heads arrived one after another.
Some sat next to Lu Yun, some sat opposite him, and some stood awkwardly in the middle, looking here and there.
Soon, only the patriarch of the Zetaki family had not arrived.
Lu Yun glanced at the time and sat up straight from his half-leaning position. "It's been quite a while. Those who haven't arrived yet probably won't come. Let's get started."
at this time.
There were footsteps outside the house.
Ze Takino's face was as gloomy as water, and he walked in with his hands behind his back.
Madam Liu chuckled and asked, "Didn't Chief Zelong say he wouldn't participate?"
Ze Longye glanced at Lu Yun and said calmly, "Since Lord Lu has spoken, how dare I not come."
"I think there's no need to elect the next Speaker. We can just let Mr. Lu take the position."
A series of inexplicable gazes fell on Lu Yun.
Bryant, who had changed his seat, said calmly, "Chief Zelong, please take a seat first."
"Yes, Mr. Speaker." Sawatakiye chuckled, bowed slightly, and walked to sit next to Bryant.
This is the end.
More than one hundred senators from the Federal Parliament were present.
Bryant spoke first and asked calmly, "Councilor Lu, if you have anything to say, you can start now."
Lu Yun didn't say anything. Jun Qingshan stood up, tugged at his collar, and said, "It's still the same thing as last time. It's just that the representatives of each family were too slow and indecisive.
So we have decided directly for you that each company will contribute 30% to the construction of the new administrative district.
Those who agree can sign now, and those who disagree can leave immediately."
As soon as these words came out.
The parliament hall was quiet for a moment, and then exploded.
"30%? How dare you ask that!"
"If you say 30%, it's 30%. Who gave you the courage?"
"It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous!"
Angry and mocking gazes were directed at Jun Qingshan.
Jun Qingshan was calm and said with a grin, "If you disagree, you can leave directly. No one will stop you."
But who would dare to leave at this time?
The living King of Hell is sitting right there.
If you leave at this time, you can imagine what the consequences will be.
Ze Longye knocked on the table, and the crowd quieted down. He stared at Lu Yun gloomily, "Councilor Lu, are you planning to use force to force us?"
"You want to provoke unrest in the Federation?"
Ze Takino stared at Lu Yun with uncertain eyes.
Garnard sneered, "There's no need to put such a big accusation on Mr. Zelong, Patriarch. Mr. Jun has already made Mr. Lu's intentions clear. This is something that benefits everyone."
"You can't just sit back and reap the benefits just because Lu Yun will definitely intervene to stop the void. You're the patriarch of the family after all, so have some dignity."
Someone immediately retorted, "Whether the Void will actually invade is still uncertain. He suddenly came up with an idea and wanted us all to pay for 30% of our assets. Even a scammer wouldn't dare to make such a fabrication."
Rao Yuan slammed the table and angrily retorted: "Bullshit!"
"If Lu Yun hadn't returned in time and killed the bloodthirsty legion commander, the war would still be going on at the federal border!"
"You have to wait until someone shoves their claws up your mother's ass before you think of resisting, right?"
"you……"
The young clan leader's face flushed red as he pointed at Rao Yuan tremblingly.
Bryant said, "Councilor Rao Yuan, this is the parliament hall, not your home. Please be careful with your words."
Rao Yuan rolled his eyes and sat down angrily.
Bryant looked at Lu Yun and said, “Councilor Lu, 30% is indeed inappropriate.
Everyone understands your good intentions, but there is indeed no sign of a large-scale invasion of the Void, and the evil deeds of a small force do not mean much.
For the stability of the Federation, how about we all take a step back?"
Lu Yun slowly stood up.
One gaze after another was cast over.
Lu Yun smiled and said calmly, "I, Lu Yun, never claim to be a noble and good person, so I can't stand seeing someone secretly sitting back and enjoying the fruits of my labor while I'm fighting for my life in front."
"30%, not a cent less."
Ze Takino slammed the table and stood up: "What do you mean? Threatening us?"
"Don't even mention 30%, I won't give you even a cent. What can you do to us?"
This time.
Even Bryant didn't say a word. He leaned on his cane, his eyes drooping, and silently supported Sawatakino.
These explosive words silenced the parliament hall, and everyone was waiting for Lu Yun's answer.
"What can I do to you?"
Lu Yun chuckled.
The person opposite him subconsciously became nervous, even Sawatakino tensed his muscles, his eyes full of vigilance.
Swish.
No one could see clearly how the black shadow disappeared and reappeared.
They only felt a black shadow appear in front of their eyes, and Lu Yun had already crossed the long table and appeared in front of Ze Longye. He grabbed Ze Longye's neck and lifted him up with one hand.
"What do you think I can do to you now?"
Lu Yun raised the corner of his mouth, staring at Ze Longye in his hand with murderous intent in his eyes.
The people on both sides were horrified and retreated in a hurry.
Bryant slammed his cane and shouted, "Lu Yun, what are you doing?"
"This is Parliament!"
"Let Councillor Sawataki go!"
However, what responded to him was Lu Yun's gradually closing five fingers.
Sawa Takino's face turned purple due to lack of oxygen, and his eyes were full of shock and horror.
Only two people in the Federation's history of hundreds of years have taken action in Parliament.
One is Neo, and the other is the person in front of you.
And Neo is dead.
Ze Longye widened his eyes and stared at Lu Yun: "You, you are looking for death!!"
