Massive Operation! Global Mobilization!

Augustine's words, filled with determination and killing intent, echoed for a long time in the silent Supreme Conference Room.

His proposal was like a giant boulder thrown into an already turbulent lake, stirring up thousands of massive waves!

Launching a global war targeting the Divine Court!

This proposal was too insane and too daring!

The Divine Court was an ancient organization that had lurked in the shadows of the world for thousands of years. No one could clearly state the depth of its power and foundation.

The price required for an all-out war with them would be immeasurable.

However, every Longxia magnate present knew clearly.

Augustine was right.

The Divine Court had become the Sword of Damocles hanging over all of humanity.

From the “Divine Descent Project” on the Oulu Continent to the “Demon God Unsealing” on the western border of Longxia, every one of their actions aimed to subvert the world and bring destruction and catastrophe.

This was no longer a simple organizational conflict, but a life-and-death struggle concerning the survival of Human Civilization!

The silence lasted less than ten seconds.

Xu Cangqiong's weather-beaten face revealed a look of resolute severity.

He slammed the table, speaking in a deep voice that resonated throughout the entire conference room like a great bell.

“We, Longxia, agree!”

“It is time to completely eradicate this tumor that has been entrenched in Human Civilization!”

His words were powerful and represented the highest will of Dragon Xia Kingdom!

“Agreed!”

“Seconded!”

The other generals also expressed their support, their eyes burning with the same fierce Battle Intent.

As soldiers, defending their homeland was their sacred duty. Now, what they needed to Guard was the future of all Human Civilization!

In the holographic projection.

Augustine's resolute face showed a hint of relief and excitement: “Thank you, Longxia, for taking responsibility! With your participation, our chances of victory in this war will increase by at least fifty percent!”

“Commander Augustine, there's no need to be polite.”

Xu Cangqiong waved his hand, his expression returning to calm and serious. “Since we have decided to go to war, the next step is to discuss who will represent us in this ‘God Slaying War’.”

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the conference room became solemn once more.

A one-eyed general pondered for a moment and said, “The Divine Court's foundation is unfathomable. They certainly have existences similar to the Blood Fiend Emissary, or even stronger. I believe this battle must be fought by our most Peak combat powers! I propose we invite the Martial Gods who are stationed on the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield!”

Martial God!

As these two words were uttered, everyone's hearts violently trembled.

They were the true Sea Stabilizing Needles of Dragon Xia Kingdom!

They were the Guardian Gods standing at the Peak of human Martial Dao!

Every Martial God possessed the terrifying power to move mountains, fill seas, and reverse the universe.

If they made a move, let alone one Divine Court, it wouldn't be impossible for them to flatten an entire continent.

However, Xu Cangqiong slowly shook his head, rejecting the proposal.

“No.”

His voice was incredibly firm.

“Gentlemen, don't forget, our greatest enemy has never been the Divine Court.”

“It is the Ten Thousand Races that are eyeing us covetously from the endless Spatial Rifts! It is the terrifying Beast Tides that could erupt at any moment and sweep everything away!”

“The Divine Court, in the end, is just an internal conflict and dispute among us humans. The Ten Thousand Races are the real mortal threat that truly wants to exterminate our race!”

“The Sir Martial Gods are our ultimate trump card for deterring the Ten Thousand Races, and the final line of defense protecting our national borders! They absolutely cannot easily leave their Garrisoned Positions! Otherwise, if the Ten Thousand Races seize the opportunity, the consequences would be unimaginable!”

Xu Cangqiong's words were like a basin of cold water, sobering everyone up.

That's right, they almost forgot.

This world was far more dangerous than it appeared on the surface.

The reason they could sit here safely and hold a meeting was because countless warriors, including those supreme Martial Gods, were defending against invasions from Other Worlds on unseen frontiers, using their lives and blood.

“Then... who should we send?” The One-Eyed General's brow furrowed tightly. “We can't just send the younger generation like Su Li, can we? Facing those old monsters of the Divine Court, that would be like throwing eggs at a rock!”

“No.”

A meaningful curve suddenly appeared at the corner of Xu Cangqiong's mouth.

He slowly turned his head, his gaze falling upon the figure leaning listlessly in a chair in the corner of the screen.

Inside the conference room, the eyes of all the magnates converged along with his.

In an instant, the entire conference room fell into a strange silence.

That's right!

How could they have forgotten this Fiend Star?!

They couldn't move the Martial Gods, but didn't they have an existence here that was comparable to a Martial God, or perhaps... even more terrifying than a Martial God?

Poking through an Ancient Grand Formation with one finger!

Sweeping away the Death Passage with one sword strike!

Laying down the Ten Thousand Swords Killing Array with a single thought, utterly obliterating the Peak of the Origin Gathering Realm Blood Fiend Emissary!

Finally, he forcefully stuffed a Primeval Demon God that was about to emerge back into its place!

Every single one of these events... which one wasn't world-shattering, a miracle worthy of being recorded in history?!

With him here, who needs a Martial God?!

“I propose that Consultant Lin Yuan serve as the highest representative of Dragon Xia Kingdom, fully responsible for this operation!”

Xu Cangqiong's voice sounded again.

This time, no one raised any objections.

All the magnates showed an expression of course, even tinged with a hint of... sympathy.

However, the object of their sympathy was the Divine Court.

Why did they have to provoke this monster whose abilities couldn't be gauged by common sense?

Now, there's a good show to watch.

“Good! It's settled then!”

...Tianshu Base, Rest Area.

Lin Yuan had just finished his third bottle of Happy Water and was contemplating whether to go straight home to sleep or grab a late-night snack at the Cafeteria first.

Just then, Xu Cangqiong walked up to him with steady steps.

“Consultant Lin Yuan.”

Xu Cangqiong's face held a solemn expression.

“Hmm?” Lin Yuan lifted his eyelids and responded lazily, “Something up?”

“There is a matter concerning the safety of the entire world, and we need your help,” Xu Cangqiong stated his purpose directly.

He briefly and concisely explained the Divine Court's global conspiracy and Longxia's plan to unite the world's forces to launch a general offensive against them.

However, after Lin Yuan finished listening, his face remained completely unperturbed.

He merely scratched his ear impatiently.

“So?”

“Therefore, we hope you can act as our representative and lead the team to execute this mission.”

Xu Cangqiong looked at Lin Yuan's detached appearance.

The veins on his forehead couldn't help but twitch.

Does this kid have absolutely no awareness or sense of responsibility as a powerhouse?

“Not going.”

Lin Yuan spit out two words decisively.

“Too troublesome.”

“Saving the world sounds exhausting.”

Xu Cangqiong: “...”

He took a deep breath.

Forcing down the urge to draw his gun, he patiently persuaded him, “Consultant Lin Yuan, this is not a joke! The existence of the Divine Court seriously threatens everyone's safety! Including yours!”

Lin Yuan curled his lip, completely unconvinced.

Threaten me?

What a joke.

“I know you are powerful, but the Divine Court's foundation...”

“Alright, alright,” Lin Yuan waved his hand impatiently, interrupting him.

He looked at Xu Cangqiong's face, which was plastered with “anxiety” and “for the future of humanity,” and suddenly felt annoyed.

“So, if I just wipe out that Divine Court thing completely, there won't be so many messy things disturbing me in the future, right?”

Xu Cangqiong was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously nodded: “The... theoretically, yes.”

This happened to coincide with Lin Yuan's own thoughts.

Since he had already completely fallen out with the other party, there was no need to hide anything!

“Then that's that.”

Lin Yuan stood up and stretched lazily, his bones crackling loudly.

“You should have said so earlier. Why beat around the bush?”

“When do we leave? Let's get this done quickly.”

Looking at Lin Yuan's relaxed manner, as if he were just going to the market to buy groceries, Xu Cangqiong was momentarily speechless.

He had a feeling.

The passionate mobilization speech he had just given, concerning the survival of humanity, probably carried less weight to this kid than the five words “disturbing your sleep.”
