1057: Changes

“The Two Realms War has just ended, and it’s a time when people’s hearts are settling. It’s not wise to resort to force if we want to reclaim Chenxi City and its surrounding areas from Sakura Country.”

In the top-floor conference room of Luoying City’s Government Center, Yang Daoming spoke with a serious expression, looking at everyone present.

Below, Zhang Zhilong nodded upon hearing this, Bai Ziting’s expression was a bit indignant, while Charles’s eyes flashed with a hint of undetectable surprise.

“Old Yang, those little dwarves have bullied you, and you’re not planning to teach them a lesson?”

“Now that Senior Zhang Dingguo has stepped into the Nine Revolution Early Stage, possessing the formidable record of directly slaying a Blood Clan Progenitor, your Dragon Country can now be said to be the strongest country on Blue Star. If those little dwarves from Sakura Country are so arrogant and you don’t respond forcefully, I’m afraid Free Fortress and Eagle Country, who are behind them, will become even more aggressive!”

Charles spoke with a face full of righteous indignation, appearing to be thinking on Yang Daoming’s behalf.

Upon hearing this, Bai Ziting, who was sitting to the side, moved his lips, seemingly agreeing with Charles and wanting to say something. But the next second, he tightly closed his mouth under Yang Daoming’s stern gaze.

At this moment, Zhang Zhilong, who was sitting below Yang Daoming, seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Charles with an unreadable expression, saying:

“Old fellow, you seem very interested in fighting Sakura Country?”

“How about this, we exchange Chenxi City and the surrounding areas with you, and you take action to kick Sakura Country out.”

“Ah?”

Charles, who had a face full of righteous indignation, was stunned upon hearing this:

“Exchange with us? Old Zhang, don’t joke around!”

“Our current territory is pretty good. No, I mean, I’m helping you fight for justice. How did the topic shift to me?”

“The resources contained within Chenxi City and its surrounding areas are said to be the greatest in the First Auxiliary World. Are you sure you’re not interested?”

Zhang Zhilong raised an eyebrow, his tone somewhat playful.

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. Since the will of the heavens revived, the relationship between Bear Country and Dragon Country could be said to be the closest, always supporting each other until now.

Unexpectedly, they were now starting to drift apart…

Everyone is an enemy.

While not entirely accurate, this phrase nearly described Dragon Country’s current situation on Blue Star!

Standing up and looking around, all he saw were jackals!

“Haha!”

“Old Zhang, don’t joke around. Although we covet resource-rich lands, those are what you deserve. If we exchanged, wouldn’t you suffer a loss!”

At this moment, Charles laughed loudly, masking the gloom in his eyes.

“Let’s not bring this up again. We have a brotherhood alliance, how could we let you suffer a loss!”

“By the way, how is that little fellow Wang Chen doing recently?”

“The Two Realms War has been over for several months, why hasn’t he come out of seclusion yet?”

“You don’t know, that disobedient girl of mine has been thinking about challenging that kid every day since she came out of the Endless Corridor.”

After laughing, Charles changed the topic to Wang Chen.

As the most sought-after Genius on Blue Star, Wang Chen’s reputation among the younger generation could almost be described as soaring.

Since becoming a Awakener, his successive achievements, which caused countless people to be shocked, left no doubt that Wang Chen’s future accomplishments would reach the peak of Blue Star.

This naturally aroused the admiration and longing of countless young people, but at the same time, it also aroused the apprehension of countless people.

Dragon Country already had Zhang Dingguo, who stood at the pinnacle of Awakeners, with an unprecedented Nine Revolution Early Stage strength. If another Wang Chen emerged, who would certainly reach the Nine Revolution Early Stage, or even beyond the Nine Revolution Early Stage in the future…

Such a future made high-level officials of various countries panic just thinking about it.

However, in the Early Stage of the Two Realms War not long ago, Wang Chen encountered a Blood Clan Prince on the battlefield and has since disappeared from the sight of all parties.

In response, Dragon Country announced that Wang Chen, after deeply realizing his shortcomings in the battle with the Blood Clan Prince, went to a special Secret Realm Dungeon in Dragon Country to cultivate and improve his strength.

But for what Dragon Country said, the various parties didn’t quite believe it.

Many people believed that Wang Chen had already died in that encounter, perishing together with the Blood Clan Prince.

This view was mainly because there were many people on the battlefield at that time, and many had noticed that battle, as well as the terrifying explosion that covered an area of ten li and could easily tear apart ordinary Nine Revolution Awakeners.

And with Wang Chen not showing his face for nearly half a year, those who held this belief now constituted the majority.

After all, no Secret Realm Dungeon could last for such a long time.

Charles’s change of topic at this time seemed like he wanted to challenge Wang Chen on behalf of his granddaughter, but his Real purpose was nothing more than to test the waters and ascertain Wang Chen’s Real situation.

“I’m afraid Talia will be disappointed.”

Yang Daoming shook his head at this moment, his tone full of relief as he said:

“That little fellow Wang Chen was stimulated by Saint Zhang’s achievements and has been cultivating very diligently. After coming out of the Secret Realm Dungeon, he went to a Small World on the verge of destruction to level up.”

“This kid, even if I ordered him to come back, he wouldn’t listen!”

“That’s truly diligent!”

Charles nodded upon hearing this, his gaze subtly glancing at Bai Ziting, whose expression had changed.

“It seems it won’t be long before the youngest King-level Awakener on Blue Star will be born!!”

“It looks like I, this old fellow, will have to retire soon!”

He said, half- Feelings and half-jokingly.

“It’s not that easy!”

“Wang Chen is still a long way from the Nine Revolution Early Stage, and moreover, the number of giant beast tamers is too scarce. It will be very difficult for Wang Chen to reach the Nine Revolution Early Stage!”

Yang Daoming shook his head, his tone also somewhat Feelings.

As he spoke, a hint of worry, unnoticed by anyone, flashed in his eyes.

Giant beast tamers were indeed scarce, but Dragon Country could still find two or three of them by mobilizing the power of the entire nation.

But now it wasn’t a problem of giant beast tamers, but rather Wang Chen’s unknown whereabouts.

Although it was confirmed that Wang Chen was still alive through the national luck stone tablet, the specific situation could not be known at all.

“So what?”

Charles smiled, not considering what Yang Daoming said to be a problem at all, he said:

“The Nine Revolution Early Stage can be called a King-level Awakener, but a King-level Awakener does not necessarily need to reach the Nine Revolution Early Stage.”

“As long as Wang Chen reaches the combat power of the Nine Revolution Early Stage, who can deny his title as a King-level Awakener?”

“That’s true…”

Yang Daoming nodded, intending to say a few words in agreement.

Buzz buzz buzz!!

However, at this moment, an invisible wave suddenly swept through the conference room, making Yang Daoming and the expressions of the few people present turn serious.

Although this wave was faint, among the people present, even the weakest Bai Ziting had reached the Nine Revolution Early Stage, and instantly discerned that the free magic power in the world had become agitated.
