Chapter 774: Retaliation in Full Measure!
Chapter 774: Retaliation in Full Measure!
Prime Minister Cao stood before the six deities with a calm and composed demeanor. "I'm here primarily to protect the cultivators and players from our Blue Star," he stated.
"You must be aware that just three days ago, over twenty cultivators and players from our Blue Star came to this planet, Skrul. We, the cultivators and players from Blue Star, do not intend to massacre civilians or cause widespread destruction. In return, you must not attack our cultivators and players.
"If you dare to hunt down our Blue Star cultivators or players, I swear by the Sword of Ten Thousand Admonitions that I will retaliate in full measure and double the consequences! For every Blue Star person you kill, I will kill two of yours. For every Blue Star person you capture, I will capture two of yours. And I guarantee that those I kill or capture will be core members of your forces!"
Upon hearing Prime Minister Cao's unyielding and forceful declaration, all the deities present, except for Dragon Emperor Kadrigos, were enraged!
"Why should we?!" Victoria could be described as 'furious': "You Blue Star people invade our planet and forbid us from retaliating. What kind of logic is that?"
"Why should we? Because of my current strength!" Prime Minister Cao responded solemnly.
At the same time, he released the overwhelming and unmatched pressure of his peak Eighth Rank. The six deities opposite him were all struck by the pressure, their faces paling as they staggered back a few steps, completely speechless.
"I have said all I need to. You handle it as you see fit!" Prime Minister Cao turned without mercy. "During these ten days on Skrul, I will not massacre civilians or cause widespread destruction, nor will I go to the Skrul gathering areas. But if you persist in trying to hunt down or capture our Blue Star cultivators and players, do not blame me for showing no mercy! I will not warn you again!"
With that, under the impetus of his sword's hilt, he transformed into a blue ray of light and vanished into the horizon, completely out of sight within a few seconds.
...
After Prime Minister Cao left, the faces of the six Skrul deities were all grim.
Five deities and one dragon had their combined auras suppressed by a single person, and they were completely helpless against him!
"Should we pursue him?" Victoria turned to Steem.
"Perhaps... we should wait for Lord Plankt's return." Steem sighed after some thought.
With their combined speed, they were unlikely to catch up to Prime Minister Cao.
The last time they forced Cao to the Arctic region, it was mostly due to Plankt's "Spatial Leap." They only provided support.
And even if they could catch up to him, what then? Could the six of them defeat Prime Minister Cao? How would they deal with his invisibility skill?
Dragon Emperor Kadrigos agreed, "I also think we should wait for Lord Plankt and Lord Manina III to return. Given the current spatial rift's contraction oscillation, they will be back on the home planet in 18 minutes."
"There's nothing else we can do." Victoria glared hatefully in the direction Cao had left.
Prime Minister Cao's words were forceful and domineering, and they were helpless against him. Honestly, Victoria hadn't felt this kind of indignation in several centuries.
...
As Prime Minister Cao flew away, the matter here was temporarily concluded.
At this moment, the White-Headed Eagle Emperor, who had been ignored by the six deities, moved forward a few steps and said, "Hello, everyone! Would you like me to say a few words?"
Instantly, the attention of the six deities focused on the White-Headed Eagle Emperor.
They remembered that the matter of the White-Headed Eagle Emperor protecting Prime Minister Cao for three days had not been settled yet!
Especially, the gazes of Steem and Victoria were piercing.
"Don't look at me like that," the White-Headed Eagle Emperor said with a dignified tone. "First of all, I swear by the name of our White-Headed Eagle ancestors that we have no collusion with the humans of Blue Star.
Three days ago, the Blue Star's god-tier Cao Cao approached us, seeking an alliance, which I firmly rejected. After all, we're not foolish enough to do something as futile as hitting a stone with an egg.
However, Cao Cao is, after all, a powerful being at the peak of the god-tier. His strength is far beyond what our White-Headed Eagle clan can handle.
For the sake of my people's safety, I dared not provoke him or leak any information about his existence. I hope you can understand."
The six god-tier beings exchanged glances after hearing the White-Headed Eagle Emperor's words.
They knew the White-Headed Eagles very well, and since the Emperor had sworn by the name of their ancestors, his words must be true.
Vidoria sent a mental message to Steem using her psychic powers: "What should we do? Should we take advantage of the numbers and eliminate him?"
"This..." Steem hesitated before replying, "I think it's best not to stir up trouble.
Since the White-Headed Eagle Emperor has sworn by the name of their ancestors, what he says must be true. As long as the White-Headed Eagles don't ally with the Blue Star humans, there's no major issue.
If we were to take this opportunity to eliminate him, the entire White-Headed Eagle clan would turn against us, which would be extremely detrimental to our battle in five and a half months!"
"Then we'll have to let him off for now," Vidoria replied, her voice filled with frustration.
She knew that Chancellor Cao had spent three whole days with the White-Headed Eagles, and there must have been some secret dealings. However, this wasn't the time to tear the mask off the White-Headed Eagles; they could only let them go for now.
"Are you telling the truth?" Vidoria asked from a distance.
"Absolutely!" the White-Headed Eagle Emperor immediately assured.
"Fine, this time we'll forgive you!" Vidoria crossed her arms, her tone turning stern, "We, the Skrull people, absolutely cannot allow any dealings between the White-Headed Eagles and the Blue Star humans. If I discover any secret transactions, you'll bear the consequences! Understand?"
"Haha." The White-Headed Eagle Emperor didn't immediately reply but instead gave a forced smile as he looked at Dragon Emperor Cadrigos:
"‘Secret transactions’? Are you referring to what the Dragon Emperor did a while back?
I remember seeing Emperor Sunflare on the media accusing the Dragon clan of betrayal. How come you're all standing together now?"
Vidoria: "..."
Dragon Emperor Cadrigos: "..."
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
...
...
A few minutes later, Manina III and Plante returned to their home planet through the spatial rift.
Due to the violent contraction and oscillation of the spatial rift, they were unaware of what had transpired on their home planet. They were only notified by Manina to return quickly.
So, as they passed through the spatial rift, they continued their discussion about Blue star.
Plante explained, "According to the data provided by the Holy Silver Federation, Blue Star's spiritual energy reserves are five times greater than ours!
However, 70% of Blue Star's spiritual energy is taken by the Holy Silver Federation, 20% is used for the Evolution game, and the remaining 10% is what we just visited at the spiritual energy spring.
With the spiritual energy gushing out of the spring, you could say we've made a substantial profit!"
