Capítulo 1550: Chapter 1518: Dragon Gate Establishes Its Authority
This is naturally the gathering place for Dragon Gate.
Song Xiaodong arrived at Dragon Gate a day early, accompanied by Princess Qi Lanqin and Princess Feng Kexin. Dragon Six, Dragon Seven, and Dragon Nine were the mbers he interacted with the most at Dragon Gate, and were responsible for reception duties here.
“Greetings, Young Master!”
General Lin Feng was the first Elder to arrive. Upon seeing Song Xiaodong, he imdiately perford a grand salute.
Song Xiaodong did not stop him. After General Lin Feng completed the salute, he returned the gesture, saying: “Elder Lin, thank you for coming.”
Lin Feng smiled faintly and said: “No matter when, I always rember that I am part of Dragon Gate. Whenever Dragon Gate summons, I can naturally put everything aside and return to Dragon Gate.”
Song Xiaodong felt a surge of emotion. Considering Lin Feng’s current status, he still placed Dragon Gate first, clearly loyal to Dragon Gate. He said: “Please have a seat, Elder Lin.”
Lin Feng sat down and said: “Young Master, I ca early on purpose because I wanted to converse with you. What exactly is your intention in personally convening all mbers of Dragon Gate this ti?”
Song Xiaodong did not hide his intentions and said: “I believe our Dragon Gate should no longer remain hidden, otherwise, we will beco like scattered sand. I hope our Dragon Gate can unify and restore its forr glory.”
Lin Feng squinted slightly and said: “But, compared to Dark Night Sect, our current strength is much weaker. Gathering hastily would reveal our true power to Dark Night Sect, making it easy for them to annihilate us.”
Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said: “Elder Lin, how do you think our country compares to twenty years ago?”
Lin Feng was montarily stunned, then his eyes lit up, saying: “Our country is now stronger. Nobody dares to cause trouble within our country. If Dragon Gate has its roots in China, Dark Night Sect cannot do anything to us, which allows us to develop freely.”
Song Xiaodong nodded and said: “That’s right, I think the sa way.”
“It’s just…” Lin Feng furrowed his brows and said: “Although our Dragon Gate’s actions are beyond reproach, it is ultimately a special organization. If we are in China, we are considered an illegal organization. Future actions should represent China, adhering to governnt standards. In doing so, we are restrained and this is not our Dragon Gate’s style. Previously, Dragon Gate’s headquarters was always outside China.”
Song Xiaodong said: “Elder Lin, I just want to say, if we continue to hide like this, will Dragon Gate still exist in ten years?”
Not waiting for Lin Feng to continue, Song Xiaodong said: “In ten years, the old mbers of Dragon Gate will pass, and will the younger generation truly care about Dragon Gate? Even if they grow for the future, the spirit of Dragon Gate will be gone, then what use is there?”
Looking at Song Xiaodong, Lin Feng suddenly laughed heartily and said: “Yes, yes, indeed the Young Master is extraordinary, I support you.”
“Then I must trouble Elder Lin to convince the other Elders. After all, I am inexperienced, and doing this is abrupt. Surely, there are many who feel discontent.”
Lin Feng nodded and said: “I will highlight the severity, but over the years, even with so contact among us, we are not united. No one can guarantee that others don’t have different thoughts. As you said, after another ten years, there will probably be more diverse opinions. Dragon Gate will no longer be their priority.”
After eting with Lin Feng, Song Xiaodong did not directly et with other Elders. He was unsure of the other Elders’ thoughts, eting them individually now wouldn’t yield much. He would observe their reactions at tomorrow’s official eting instead.
In the evening, after dinner with Qi Lanqin and Feng Kexin, Song Xiaodong took a walk in an orchard at the manor.
The scenery here was nice, with so fruits already ripe, filling the courtyard with fragrance, making the walk truly exhilarating.
The expressions of Qi Lanqin and Feng Kexin, however, appeared sowhat serious.
Song Xiaodong held their hands on either side and asked: “Are you a bit nervous?”
Qi Lanqin nodded and said: “Yes, General Lin Feng is an Elder of our Dragon Gate, which ans there are definitely many significant figures within Dragon Gate. Thinking about eting these prominent figures makes
nervous.”
Feng Kexin, usually bolder than Qi Lanqin, also managed a wry smile at this mont and said: “Yes, even though we are Dragon Gate Princesses, it’s rely a title. Whether others recognize us or not is uncertain. If they don’t recognize us, then we are nobody.”
Song Xiaodong squeezed their hands and said: “If they don’t recognize us, then they are unworthy mbers of our Dragon Gate, why should we care about them?”
Feng Kexin smiled wryly and said: “But… without the support of those people, how can Dragon Gate be rejuvenated?”
Song Xiaodong looked up at the now hazy sky and said: “For Dragon Gate to be revived, we don’t need those who are disloyal.”
Qi Lanqin and Feng Kexin knew that Song Xiaodong’s words were right, it was truly a dilemma. They needed people, but also needed loyalty. The weight of Song Xiaodong’s Dragon Gate Young Master title, and truly how much recognition it can garner, was uncertain.
“What Dragon Gate Young Master, it’s all nonsense. It’s ancient talk, calling a Dragon Gate eting. Do they really think this is the old tis?”
