Terran Secret Talk

On the way, Feng Xiao suddenly stopped and said to Ye Chen, "Senior Ye Chen, I was disrespectful to you earlier. Please forgive me for any offenses."

Ye Chen looked at Feng Xiao's respectful expression and smiled, "What's there to forgive? Back then, you were the strong one and I was the weak one, so it was natural for you to be disrespectful to me."

Hearing this, Feng Xiao couldn't help but shiver, unsure if Ye Chen's words were genuine or spoken in anger.

"Lord Ye Chen, please, please forgive me. I truly know I was wrong," Feng Xiao said subserviently.

Ye Chen patted Feng Xiao's shoulder, smiled slightly, and said nothing.

Feng Xiao walked beside him, leading the way, his heart filled with apprehension the entire time.

At a spatial hall, Feng Xiao stood outside the door and respectfully said to the inside, "Lord Light Child, Lord Ye Chen has arrived."

Hearty laughter came from within.

"Haha, Brother Ye Chen is here! Come, come, please come in quickly."

Light Child walked out, laughing heartily.

Ye Chen looked at Light Child with a puzzled expression. Why was Light Child suddenly so enthusiastic towards him?

Upon entering the hall, many people were already seated.

The five Gods were also present.

Surrounded by Light Child, Ye Chen sat beside Light Child.

Light Child introduced them to Ye Chen, saying, "These are the God of Thunder, God of Water, God of Wind, God of Fire, and God of Shadow."

The few of them nodded, acknowledging the greeting.

After taking his seat, Ye Chen smiled and said, "Lord Light Child, may I ask why you sought me out?"

Light Child smiled, "Brother Ye Chen, don't be so distant! We are all of the human race, of the same root. Why be so estranged, right?"

Ye Chen, however, scoffed at Light Child's words.

These people were merely cuckoos occupying a magpie's nest; they were not the original leaders of this world. They had only been sent out to become strong in the Monster World.

They had no aptitude for leadership, nor the qualifications. They were indifferent to the people below them, as if life and death had nothing to do with them.

If they had the consciousness a leader should possess, Ye Chen would not be so cold towards them.

He stood with the human race, but he was definitely not on the side of these people before him.

Light Child's expression turned stern, but he quickly recovered, smiling, "Brother Ye Chen, what's wrong? Do you have some opinion of us?"

Looking at Light Child's forced smile, Ye Chen laughed, "What? Lord Light Child, is this a case of the dagger being revealed at the end of the scroll, preparing for a confrontation?"

The people below, whose hands had begun to stir, suddenly stopped moving.

It was clear that these people were ready to make a move.

"Brother Ye Chen, to be frank, join us. We will fight the demonic creature together. After repelling the demonic creature, we will also launch an attack against the monsters, drive them out, and reclaim our homeland."

Light Child spoke with righteous indignation.

"Our homeland? Is it your homeland? Do you know how many of our humans died this time? Out of fifty-four thousand people, our humans accounted for thirty thousand! Thirty thousand! Because of your inaction, your disregard for the lives and deaths of the people below, how many ordinary people and weak individuals suffered? Millions! That's millions of people! An entire city! All of you are high and mighty, caring only for yourselves, regardless of anything else. What about everyone else?"

Ye Chen said, suppressing his rage.

"But, but we are also for the future. The deaths of these people are worth it. We are one race!"

The God of Thunder said unhappily.

Ye Chen laughed, "Hahaha, that sounds really good, 'for the future, worth it'? What a noble-sounding speech. If their deaths had meaning, then I wouldn't say anything at all. But their deaths were meaningless! They didn't have to die! You said that after repelling the demonic creature, you would deal with the monsters. Then, after dealing with the monsters, will you deal with me?"

After speaking, Ye Chen looked at the few of them with a slight smile.

The few of them were instantly stunned.

Their cheeks twitched; they indeed had this plan.

They had originally planned to first bring Ye Chen over to deal with the demonic creature, then use Ye Chen to deal with the monsters, and once everything was over, they would find ways to deal with Ye Chen and reclaim the power of this world.

But they hadn't expected that their well-laid plans would be seen through by Ye Chen.

The few of them exchanged glances, and Light Child shook his head slightly, causing the others to lower their hands.

It was clear that these people were truly prepared to make a move.

Seeing this, Ye Chen wished they would act.

Ye Chen didn't take these people seriously at all.

He could handle them completely by himself, without needing the God of Creation.

Presumably, these people still didn't know that he had three God-level pets.

Gungun suddenly said, "Boss, can you get that mysterious stone from them? I have a use for it."

Hearing Gungun's words, Ye Chen nodded.

Ye Chen looked at Light Child and said, "Actually, this kind of thing isn't impossible to discuss. After all, we are all of the human race. I can guarantee that you won't have to worry about being oppressed by monsters in the future, but you need to follow my arrangements."

The few of them were startled, but Light Child still nodded.

The only two things they worried about were monsters and Ye Chen.

If the demonic creature was truly driven away, would the monsters let them off?

Would Ye Chen let them off?

This was the only thing they were worried about.

"Alright, Brother Ye Chen, we'll listen to you. With such powerful strength, it's only right for you to be the leader of the human race."

"When you entered the Sacred Hall, did you obtain a stone?"

The few of them nodded and took out their stones.

"What? Brother Ye Chen knows the use of this thing?" they asked curiously.

They were also full of doubts about that stone.

When they first saw the stone, they had checked a lot of information and asked many people, but they still knew nothing.

Ye Chen smiled, "It's just a forging stone to make a weapon, after some forging."

The few of them nodded and handed all the stones to Ye Chen.

They were all intelligent people and had already made two plans.

They had also left themselves a retreat: either Ye Chen joins them, or they join Ye Chen.

Ye Chen had seven Gods, plus eleven Gods of Creation—such strength!

He was definitely a top-tier existence.

The few of them smiled, having received Ye Chen's promise.

"Alright, is there anything else?"

Light Child shook his head, "Nothing else. Now we are relieved. With your promise, we are in the same camp. We will need to trouble you with things in the future."

Ye Chen nodded, "It's fine. Mutual help is only right."

The few of them laughed.

As long as one is human, who isn't afraid of death?

Ye Chen said goodbye, stood up, and left.

Upon reaching outside, he found Kong Xi standing at the door.

"Ye Chen, are you alright?"

Kong Xi asked with concern.

Ye Chen smiled, "What could be wrong? It's just discussing some matters and saying a few words. What? Is something wrong?"

Kong Xi shook her head, "Nothing. Haven't you found a place to stay since you arrived here? I came to arrange a place for you. Tomorrow morning, my father will hold the final decisive battle meeting."
