Only My Way

Listening to the somewhat heavy tone of his old friend, Song Jie's heart was filled with shock.

Even though he was merely a cultivator whose strength barely reached the [Intent Manifestation Realm].

Not to mention those big shots in the [Divine Power Realm] and [Original Form Realm].

Even within the [Intent Manifestation Realm], there were many experts who could easily defeat him.

But he ultimately knew one thing.

That was just how much destructive power he possessed!

He was very clear that if he was truly willing to go for broke.

Putting it lightly.

At the very least, wanting to frantically kill tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people before other experts could intervene was not a big problem at all.

The so-called weaklings basically had no ability to resist in his hands.

A casual strike could easily massacre a city!

However, even so, those [Divine Power Realm] and [Original Form Realm] experts, whose strength was far greater than his, were still dying in droves on the battlefield…

The cruelty of that battlefield.

Simply made it somewhat incomprehensible to him.

He didn't understand, just what kind of battle would have to be fought for that kind of situation to occur?

At the same moment.

His old friend was still continuing to talk about some related matters on his own, completely unaware that he was already somewhat distracted.

“Currently, due to the situation not being very good, our [Golden Mist Continent] has just suffered a major defeat, and because the losses were extremely great.”

“Even the [News Report], which has always been impartial when publishing news, doesn't dare to rashly publish such news directly.”

“To put it bluntly… such a situation is simply too demoralizing, the various [Article Writers] definitely have to carefully study how to state things in a way that is more appropriate, so that the losses suffered by their side can appear more acceptable to the public…”

“Overall speaking, perhaps it will take another two or three days before the relevant news will be completely and widely announced…”

Hearing that the [News Report] was studying how to whitewash the great defeat of the [Golden Mist Continent], Song Jie was somewhat speechless, but he wasn't surprised by anything, people all wanted face, especially when facing outsiders, even more so.

Moreover.

Even though it has always maintained a neutral attitude, when it comes down to it, the [News Report] actually also has its own stance, which is the [Golden Mist Continent]!

However.

Song Jie still asked with some hesitation: “In that case, our other four regions might need to send reinforcements to [Southern Region]?”

“After all, the enemy's strength is so powerful, and they even possess experts whose level has reached above the [Original Form Realm].”

To this.

The person called Old Chen chose to answer somewhat uncertainly:

“Hard to say.”

“Although the situation in the [Southern Region] is indeed very bad, according to the people above, the situation has not actually reached the worst possible degree, it can only be said that they have encountered some kind of big trouble.”

“Presumably, the [Southern Region] should possess other trump cards, such as possessing experts of equal strength.”

“In short, the situation is a bit complicated… no one knows what will happen next.”

“I'll just say, fortunately the area invaded by that group of sea creatures is the [Southern Region], otherwise, the problem would be ours…”

Speaking of the later part, the other party's words also inevitably contained some rejoicing and a hint of schadenfreude.

Then, at the end of the exchange, the other party chose to ask Song Jie with some doubt:

“By the way.”

“I haven't asked you yet, why are you suddenly concerned about Ling Wuyuan and [Snow Moon Cloud Heaven Pavilion]…

“What's wrong?”

“Could it be that some other guy leaked the news about the great defeat?”

Speaking of this.

That person directly chuckled and muttered:

“I knew that this kind of news with not many people in the know is very, very difficult to be perfectly hidden, even if there are experts who repeatedly order that it not be spread… I don't know how many people are in the know now, I just hope it doesn't become widely known, that would be a bit difficult to handle…”

“A great defeat is, after all, a loss of face, and even more damaging to morale.”

“I heard that after this battle, many forces in the [Southern Region] directly look like they have suffered a great loss of vitality, for example, that super force called [Black Aspect Dynasty], which often appears in the [News Report], is like that, they not only lost two Sea Stabilizing Pillars whose strength reached the [Original Form Realm] on the spot, even the [Divine Power Realm], who served as the internal mainstay, suffered dozens of deaths and injuries on the spot, directly shaking their own foundation…”

Hearing this, Song Jie suddenly fell silent.

That [Black Aspect Dynasty], as far as he knew, was one of the most powerful super forces in the [Southern Region], possessing a full five [Original Form Realm], with such strength, even in the [Central Region], where the strongest experts gather, that would be the most top-tier overlord force!

However.

It was only a short period of time, and the other party was beaten into a badly wounded state by the ocean alien race, losing half their life on the spot…

The most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ At ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ Book ⊥ ⊥ Bar ⊥ ⊥ First ⊥ Issue!

For a time.

Thinking that even the super forces, which were incomparably powerful in the past, were in such a miserable state, Song Jie really didn't have a good comment on the current situation.

Then, facing the friend who had misunderstood, he chose to correct him:

“It's not that someone leaked secrets to me.”

“But my granddaughter encountered a very strange person, someone who claimed to be called Ling Wuyuan, claimed to belong to the [Snow Moon Cloud Heaven Pavilion], and even wanted to go to the [White Mist Kingdom]…”

As soon as these words came out.

The friend on the other side immediately froze on the spot:

“Ah!?”

“What the hell!??

“Claiming to be Ling Wuyuan? And also belonging to the [Snow Moon Cloud Heaven Pavilion]?”

“What does this mean, is this some new type of scam??

“Did he forget that this is actually the [Northern Region], which is hundreds of billions of kilometers away from the [Southern Region]? ? ?

Song Jie told the truth:

“I'm not sure what the truth is, but that person's appearance characteristics do match the description in the intelligence, so I'm more or less concerned, according to my granddaughter, the information that person wants to buy contains how to go to the [White Mist Kingdom], and even paid a large deposit for it, it shouldn't be playing with people…”

After hearing the words here.

The person on the other side was also a little hesitant.

“Is that so…”

“But it's still not right… how could Ling Wuyuan suddenly appear here?”

“Could it be that he got lost while performing space shuttle?”

“That's too ridiculous…”

[Hearing Shadow Pavilion], where Zheng Saijuan is located.

At the first floor lobby.

“I am the City Lord of [Hua Yan City]—Sun Poyun, I heard that a young and powerful expert has suddenly visited us here, so I came to see him.”

“I hope that my arrival has not disturbed you…”

The speaker was a middle-aged man followed by a large group of people.

Although he was the City Lord, he didn't have any overbearing feeling about him, but instead had a taste of being refined and courteous.
