A screen appeared in front of Wang Teng. Commander Xing Ce's stern and cold face appeared on the screen.
"Wang Teng, you surprise me."
He looked at Wang Teng with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"I didn't expect you to take over the Soaring Serpent Guards so quickly without any problems."
"You're flattering me. I was able to take over the Soaring Serpent Guards successfully because of your support." Wang Teng was surprised. He didn't expect the commander to praise him. However, he reacted quickly and didn't show any signs of complacency. He remained humble.
"You're quite sly. No wonder they're not worried about you." There was a smile in Commander Xing Ce's eyes. However, it wasn't obvious on his cold face. It disappeared quickly, making people think that they saw wrong. He said calmly, "Alright, let's not waste any time. Why are you looking for me?"
"I received news that the dark apparitions seemed to have found a special substance called the Ash Mine. However, no matter how hard I look, I can't find any information about it. That's why I came to ask the commander," Wang Teng said.
"Ash Mine!" Commander Xing Ce's calm expression finally changed a little.
Wang Teng had a sudden thought. It looked like Commander Xing Ce knew something. He must have asked the right person.
Round Ball was reliable!
Wang Teng gave Round Ball a thumbs up in his heart.
Round Ball: ('')
"Are you sure there's an ash mine on that planet?" Commander Xing Ce asked again after some time.
Wang Teng portrayed the characteristics of the special substance to Commander Xing Ce. There was nothing more convincing than this.
After all, the mining was extremely critical and rare. It was understandable that Commander Xing Ce suspected the authenticity of the information. However, if he portrayed the characteristics correctly, the credibility would be high. He believed that Commander Xing Ce would take it seriously.
"It looks like it's really an Ash Mine." Commander Xing Ce's expression turned serious after hearing his description.
Very few people knew about the existence of the energy stone mine. Also, the higher authorities had blocked all relevant information. The people who knew about it were mostly important figures from the various factions.
Even he knew this because of his status as the commander-in-chief of the alliance.
You could say that anyone who didn't have a certain status wouldn't have the right to know about the existence of this mine. It was an extremely important strategic resource and feared by many formidable martial warriors.
This was because if this mine had enough power, and it could indeed threaten eternal level martial warriors.
It was possible for a low-rank primary-rank martial warrior to rebel against an advanced-rank martial warrior.
That was why the higher authorities kept it a secret.
Even though Wang Teng's identity was special, he wouldn't know about the presence of the ore if he didn't come into contact with it. Now that he mentioned the presence of the Ash Mine, it was most
likely true.
"Does that mean that the mine was discovered a long time ago?" Wang Teng asked.
"That's right." Commander Xing Ce didn't hide the truth. He nodded and continued, "In the history of the Light Universe, the Ash Mine has been around for a long time. However, it's extremely rare and before it's excavated, it's no different from a normal mineral. It's hard to find. Hence, no one knows about its existence until now."
"Now, some of the ore is in the hands of the powerful factions. They will only use it if there's a need."
"When is there a need?" Wang Teng blinked and asked.
Commander Xing Ce suddenly shifted silent.
"I understand. Pretend that I didn't ask, Commander Xing Ce." Wang
Teng smiled.
It looked like this ore was more critical than he thought. All the factions probably knew how to use this ore so they had it in their
hands. Normally, they wouldn't use it.
Even in this situation, they weren't willing to use it.
"Wang Teng, listen to my order," Commander Xing Ce said.
"Yes, sir!" Wang Teng turned serious.
"As the commander of the allied forces, I order you to take over the Ash Mine Planet," Commander Xing Ce made his decision quickly and
said in a low voice.
"Commander, with the ability of the Soaring Serpent Guards, I'm afraid they can't do it." Wang Teng didn't agree immediately. He gave a
bitter expression.
"I knew you would make a request." Commander Xing Ce smiled gently. "You don't have to worry. I will issue an order to let all the factions in the Tianlan Territorial Domain be under your command."
"All under my command?" Wang Teng held his breath. "Does that include the Tianlan Mountain?"
"Oh? It looks like you know how special the Tianlan Mountain is." Commander Xing Ce was astounded.
Tianlan Mountain had a special status in the Tianlan Territorial Domain. However, most people only knew what it appeared like on
the surface. Since Wang Teng asked this question, he must know
something.
This talent always surprised him.
Wang Teng gave a harmless smile. He looked like an ordinary young
man.
"You don't have to worry about the Endless Sky Mountain. I will
inform them. In this situation, they will understand the severity of the
matter." Commander Xing Ce pondered for a moment before continuing in a meaningful tone, "However, you're too young. The younger generations of the Tianlan Mountain might not be convinced. You will have to deal with this yourself."
"As long as the older generations don't act, it won't be a problem,"
Wang Teng replied.
"Don't worry. If they do that, they are looking down on the alliance," Commander Xing Ce said.
