Chapter 1222: The Same Front
Chapter 1222: The Same Front
'Could it be that Sima Qing dared to do this at this time because he knew something had happened in the Sea of Gods?'
Ao Sheng thought to himself.
"Now, Sima Qing must have already fled somewhere to recuperate and try to repair his soul."
The slow, deep voice of the Giant Father Tar hummed over: "He controls three twelfth-tier ferocious beasts and six eleventh-tier ferocious beasts and gods... and we don't even know if there are any more."
"Moreover, it is said that among the board members of the gene company are high-ranking members of many of the most powerful races among all races, and even rulers are among them."
Ye Bing: "......"
The Earth Clan elder gripped his scepter tightly, his voice trembling slightly: "You mean... there might be people from the Gene Company lurking among the high-ranking members of our various clans?"
"Yes."
"..."
"Gene Corporation is the number one conglomerate on the map of all races. It has secretly recruited and cultivated countless powerful individuals. And don't forget their expertise in gene and cell modification technology."
Ye Ge spoke calmly, yet each word was clear: "They have people in the high ranks of many powerful races among the myriad races, some even holding the position of general, and they certainly wield considerable military power. Add to that the nine ferocious beasts and ghost gods, and if they were to truly wage war against the myriad races, I'm afraid few races could match them in a one-on-one fight."
"Hmph, just because they're a conglomerate?"
Black Dragon King Gul'thas scoffed, his dragon eyes filled with disdain.
"Taowu, Taotie, Qiongqi. You should have already seen the power of the twelfth-tier ghost gods."
Ye Ge said, "The power of these three ancient ferocious beasts has only recovered to 20% or 30%. Just Qiongqi's Moon Eye Illusion Technique alone has already brought many top experts of the myriad races to such a wretched state. Almost no Soul Emperor realm expert can resist it."
"The abilities of Taotie and Taowu have not yet been revealed. Are you sure you can withstand Sima Qing's army of undead and ghosts if he comes to attack your Western Dragon Kingdom?"
"As far as I know, when Sima Qing launched the War of the Ferocious Beasts more than a hundred years ago, the Western Dragon Clan's army faced the army of the Ferocious Beast Descendants Alliance on the battlefield. Their record was three battles and three losses, and the entire army was wiped out."
"..."
"Humph!"
Gul's face turned ashen, and he turned away, saying nothing more.
"Duke Yege means..." Ao Sheng looked into Yege's eyes, paused, and tentatively asked, "An alliance?"
Many high-ranking members of the myriad races showed expressions of surprise, exchanged bewildered glances, and a murmur of discussion arose.
"Whether or not we form an alliance is another matter. After all, Sima Qing has already fled in disgrace, and the war hasn't even really started yet. It's too early to talk about this now."
Ye Ge said earnestly, "But I hope there's one thing, at least you all can reach a consensus first."
The giant father, Tal, said, "You mean...?"
Ye Ge paused, his gaze sweeping over the many rulers of the myriad races and the high-ranking elders and ministers present: "If, and I mean if, something like the beast war of over a hundred years ago were to happen again, and the Five Elements Gods are unreliable... I hope that everyone here can put aside other matters and prioritize the eradication of the Gene Company."
The powerful figures from all races present remained silent, their expressions varied, and they exchanged glances.
Although no one made a clear statement in the end, it is clear that everyone basically agreed on this consensus.
Ye Bing crossed her arms and glanced furtively at Ye Ge, sighing inwardly, 'Although this guy is always annoying, sometimes you have to admire him...'
"With just a few simple words, he brought the previously fragmented myriad races together on the same front."
She gazed at the setting sun in the distance, her eyes filled with a profound sense of longing.
This risky move and subsequent failure by the chairman has essentially pushed the company to the brink of collapse.
The spirit body was mostly burned away, and it's not so easy to repair.
The company is still far behind in its research on the power of the Heavenly Dao.
'Now... what are you going to do? Sima Qing...'
......
The Black Pyramid, deep underground.
Ye Yang walked steadily down the dark, narrow path, followed by more than a dozen elite warriors from the Ye family. These were all his trusted subordinates who had fought alongside him in numerous battles across the myriad races.
“My lord, we’ve been walking for so long, and we don’t know how big this underground labyrinth is.” A Night Clan warrior behind us suggested, “Why don’t we split up and search separately? That would be more efficient.”
“No way.” Ye Yang rejected the idea without hesitation: “Xiao Ge said that we might encounter ‘those people’ in this place.”
He raised his left hand, with a talisman that faintly glowed with golden light between his fingers.
This is a breath-holding talisman, a gold-quality talisman that allows the user and those connected to them to completely conceal their aura, making them undetectable even to Soul Emperor realm experts.
Ye Yang had no idea where Ye Ge had gotten so many high-level, gold-quality magic treasures.
"The 'breath-holding charm' that Xiao Ge gave me can only allow friendly units within a certain range to hold their breath perfectly."
Ye Yang said calmly, "If you all scatter and run far away, you'll be outside the talisman's connection range. If you happen to run into 'those people' here, wouldn't that ruin the task Xiao Ge entrusted to us?"
"..."
The group of subordinates behind him looked at each other, dumbfounded, and seemed to show some surprise or even astonishment.
"Huh? What's with those expressions?" Ye Yang turned his head, looked at them, and frowned slightly. "Did I say something wrong?"
“…No.” The Night Clan warrior scratched his head and said, “We just feel that this doesn’t quite sound like what you’d say…”
Ye Yang: "???"
Night Clan Warrior: "If it were before, you would probably say: Why be so cautious? The clan leader's orders aren't always entirely correct. I can complete the mission just as well by following my own ideas!"
Ye Yang: "..."
Night Clan Warrior: "Especially if the person who gives the order is someone you are very dissatisfied with, you will definitely be even less willing to follow his original plan, even if the original plan from above is perfect enough, you will definitely want to prove that your plan is better than the one from above."
"..."
Ye Yang's face remained stern and expressionless, his cheeks twitching slightly. "What's wrong? Are you guys deliberately mocking me?"
"No, no... how could that be..." the group quickly said with smiles. "We just feel that you have indeed grown..."
"Hmph..." Ye Yang paused for a moment, then said, "You're overthinking it. I've never changed on this point."
Several of his men were somewhat surprised.
"I just have to admit, Xiao Ge is definitely much stronger than me now. Whether it's raw skill, judgment, or strategic thinking." Ye Yang pursed his lips and muttered under his breath, "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't be convinced..."
