"This is apparent from the actions of the Seventh Prince. It seems he has no intention of returning to the imperial capital. And if you recall his actions since his arrival, it appears that he is treating Fenghai County as his own territory."
The captain said meaningfully.
"This is a big game of chess. Although I don't know what will happen next, the sky of Fenghai County has changed… So, Junior Brother, don't be too persistent. Death is the norm in this world. Survival is the most important."
"Just like this stew, although it's difficult to cook, given enough time, it will become tender. Therefore, all the sorrows and emotions in this world will be healed by time. If it seems otherwise, it's only because time hasn't passed yet."
"Before the ancestor returned, he told me to work hard in my cultivation and not think about romantic relationships. When my cultivation level is high in the future, what kind of woman won't I have? After I pondered over this sentence, it made a lot of sense."
"It's the same regarding Fenghai County. If it's not suitable for us, we can just leave. When we get stronger in the future, we'll still sweep through everything when we return. The various races will line up to attach themselves to us."
The captain had a proud expression. He grabbed a large piece of meat and placed it in Xu Qing's hand.
Xu Qing took the meat and silently took bite after bite with great force.
As the battle between the Holy Wave Race and Fenghai County was stopped by the flames of the four provinces, the Holy Wave Race's army had no choice but to temporarily halt their invasion. Meanwhile, in the holy land covered in white sand in the center of the Holy Wave Race, the four monarchs of the Holy Wave Race were kneeling in the temple of the Holy Wave Race's ancestral emperor.
In front of them was a seat made of special blood crystals.
Seated on it was a figure shrouded in darkness, their features obscured and indistinct. Only wisps of black aura emanated from their body, merging with the blood crystals as if purifying their bloodline.
"Ancestor, everything was done according to plan."
"However, the Black Heaven Race seems to have some suspicions."
The Red Spirit Monarch already had a new body. However, his face was a little pale, as though his blood and qi were still in a state of collapse. He spoke in a low voice.
Beside him, Heavenly Wind, Moon Fog, and Earth also lowered their heads.
After a long time without a response, the Heavenly Wind Monarch spoke.
"Ancestor, our Holy Wave Race lost more than 30 million people in this battle. This seventh son of the Human Emperor is ruthless and decisive. If that person who cooperated with us… deceived us or the Seventh Prince broke the contract…"
The Heavenly Wind Monarch didn't continue before he was interrupted by the Moon Fog Monarch.
"Heavenly Wind, this is a plan set by the ancestral emperor. We just need to complete it. You should restrain those thoughts."
The other two monarchs remained silent and didn't show any expressions.
After a long while, a voice full of desolation emanated from the blurry figure on the blood crystal seat.
"You four need not probe any further. I know your thoughts are diverse. Some of you wish to break away and gain independence, some still harbor the belief that you are part of the human race, some are eyeing my position, and others seek a stronger master. In the past, I paid no attention to your actions, but this time, whoever dares to sabotage my plan, I will eliminate them and find a new monarch."
The four monarchs lowered their heads.
"Red Spirit."
The Red Spirit Monarch's expression turned solemn.
"You've sacrificed a lot this time. The race will make it up to you. Although your Dao is broken, I will find a way to replenish it for you!"
The Red Spirit Monarch shivered and bowed deeply.
"As for what you said about the Black Heaven Race's suspicion, I was the one who told the Black Heaven Race. After all, the truth can only be hidden for longer if it's hidden in another truth." A hoarse voice rang out from the body on the seat. The four monarchs had different expressions when they heard this.
"Heavenly wind." The hoarse voice echoed again.
The Heavenly Wind Monarch took a deep breath.
"I understand your concerns. However, that Seventh Prince clearly wants to be a hero. After all, in the eyes of the world, no matter what he did in the past, he still caused 30 million of our Holy Wave Race to die. As for how many humans died and who died, no one cares.
The human race thirsts for heroes and what they are seeing is a glorious figure. As for the black and white inside, other than the people affected and the families of the deceased, no one will care how many bones are buried in the shadows.
In the future, he can even expand the territory and open up a path for the human race for tens of thousands of years. With such a flourishing plan, even if more people die, who will say 'no'?
The success of a general is accompanied by the deaths of ten thousand soldiers."
"Therefore, in order to become a hero of the human race, at least before he succeeds, he definitely won't break the agreement. He will also successfully deliver what we need."
"As for you guys, you will have to do the same for the future of our race. A temporary sacrifice is inevitable. Since we have completed the first step of our plan, let's see how the people who bridged the gap between us and the Seventh Prince will play this big chess game.
Most importantly, the method that person gave me is effective."
"As you command!"
The four monarchs below were excited when they heard this and bowed respectfully.
