Traveling through the infinite wasteland

"Honestly, I am also very confused by His Majesty's decision. However, now that it has happened, I don't know why you are planning to do it?" he asked.

"I promised the emperor back then that I would protect the royal family of the empire. Since this is the decision of the current emperor, I have nothing to say! I just hope that you will improve your combat effectiveness as soon as possible and don't lose my reputation!" It said coldly. , that powerful thought was instantly retracted into the body of the sword and fell silent, and could no longer be sensed.

He picked at the corner of his eyes, thought lightly, and the divine sword turned into a stream of light and was absorbed into his body!

"What's going on! I felt a powerful breath entering the master's body again! Is it another artifact?" The consciousness of the Yuangu Scepter, which had been sleeping for a long time, suddenly woke up and asked with some confusion.

"Huh? You actually have a divine weapon in your body? And it looks like it's not weaker than me!" Hao Lan Jian's thoughts appeared again, and he asked in surprise.

"I got this by accident, but it's a pity that I still can't really use it today!" He said a little embarrassedly.

"Your kid's luck is really not that good. Unfortunately, I don't know when he will grow to the level of a semi-divine!" Hao Lan Jian sighed in a humane voice, "I hope your luck will always be good. Go down, just don’t get killed before then!”

"Master's combat effectiveness has improved rapidly. Maybe in a year and a half, we will have a place to use it!" the ancient scepter retorted dissatisfiedly.

Hao Lanjian said disdainfully: "Master? The original consciousness of the dignified divine weapon actually calls such a boy the master! You really have lost the face of the divine weapon! No matter how fast his combat power improves, it is estimated that he will reach the level of demigod. It is not clear yet. Wait until the year of the monkey! It took decades for the Great Emperor to go from Qianxing to Demigod. No matter how powerful this kid is, can he be compared to the Great Emperor?"

"A year ago, the master only had five-star power!" Yuan Gu Scepter sneered, "Just wait! You will soon make him your master!"

"In this world! Only the great emperor of that year is qualified for me to respect him as my master!" Hao Lanjian said angrily. "I am one of the top ten divine weapons in the Xinghai Sea. I have killed powerful beings of divine quality before! You are an inferior divine weapon. How dare you act arrogantly in front of me?"

"Don't think you are very powerful! I was created by the ancient gods and fought in the star sea for tens of thousands of years. I don't know how many powerful races I have conquered! I even killed the Crystal Emperor of the Kilizako race. You Are you embarrassed to brag in front of me?" Yuan Gu Scepter counterattacked without showing any weakness.

"You'll have to compete to find out who is bragging!" Hao Lanjian snorted coldly. "Shall we make a bet? Let's see who kills the most powerful men in the hands of this kid in the future. Whoever will be the real artifact to rule the country. If you lose, stop claiming to be an artifact!"

"What's so difficult about this?" Yuan Gu Scepter said with a smile. "I have been sleeping for so many years, and finally come out for some air! It would be nice to make a bet with you to relieve my boredom!"

"However, our bet still depends on how the master performs!"

"That's true. I just hope this kid doesn't die too quickly! Then we have time, right?" Hao Lanjian laughed, "Boy, do you hear me? You have to take more care of your life in the future. Don't worry. I accidentally lost it! It ruined my face!"

Depend on! These two guys! They actually teamed up to make a bet against their owners. It was really unreasonable! However. He has no way to estimate it at the moment. How can he say that his combat effectiveness is too weak to be judged by others?

Return to base. He immediately called Luo Hanxing, Yang Wentao and others to discuss.

"Master, why did you call us here?" Hu Mu asked.

Ye Qingyuan took out the Haolan Sword and placed it on the table, and then explained the cause and effect of the matter.

"That's the way it is. I'd like to hear your opinions on how to proceed in the future!" He finally said.

Luo Hanxing stared at the divine sword, smiled and asked, "Actually, you already know what His Majesty means, right?"

"I don't know!" he responded, "Only one thing is certain. Your Majesty is putting me on the fire! Therefore, my future days will be even more miserable than before!"

"Why did your majesty do this?" Yang Wentao said, "This artifact was the personal belongings of the great emperor back then. Since it was given to you, maybe you can analyze your majesty's intention to use it based on what he did back then!"

"It makes sense!" Ye Qingyuan nodded gently, "Go on."

Yang Wentao looked around and saw that everyone was staring at him. He couldn't help but feel timid, but he still mustered up the courage to say: "The most important of the many cultural and martial arts achievements of Emperor Huiyao was to eradicate the influence of the eight major families. Although it has not achieved full success, it has effectively curbed the threat to the imperial power from the aristocratic family forces!"

"In that civil war that year, Emperor Fang Hongqian relied on this divine sword to personally behead five heads of aristocratic families, including those from the Yun family!"

"Your Majesty first asked you to reconcile with the Yun family, and then gave you this sword! The meaning of this is worth thinking about!"

Ye Qingyuan frowned slightly: "You mean, His Majesty has no intention of letting me reconcile with them? Then why did he let me meet Cheng Guiyun?"

"Your Majesty's meaning is not difficult to understand!" Luo Hanxing said with a smile, "The so-called reconciliation is of course true! However, with Cheng Guiyun's character, breaking the agreement is inevitable! When he persists in his evil intentions and strikes again , with this divine sword that governs the country, what actions should you take to satisfy His Majesty?"

"I know what you mean!" Ye Qingyuan sighed, "Your Majesty, do you think you want me to learn from that person? He really thinks highly of me!"

"Perhaps, this is not just the Yun family, but also includes several other major races, right?" Luo Qingyue said, "You are right, His Majesty will roast you on the fire! He guessed it and took a look , a genius with the greatest potential in the empire, what kind of achievements can he make in the face of the boundless anger of the eight great families! Will he be like the Emperor Huiyao who weakened or even eradicated these powerful families one by one! This is His Majesty’s true intention!”

"His calculations are good. He only understands that I am powerless and my combat power is not strong enough. Can I fulfill his expectations? Is he too impatient?"

"Yes, the heads of the eight great families are not fools!" Hu Mu said worriedly, "They must also know what His Majesty means. If they attack first, they will kill you at all costs before you grow to be strong enough. Then But what should we do?”

"I have a feeling that Your Majesty will not let it go!" Yang Wentao said again. "Since he has this plan, he will not allow the influence of the family to easily destroy his plan!"

"If my estimate is correct, as long as you make some more military exploits, you will definitely be promoted like a rocket, and the power in your hands will definitely become bigger and bigger, big enough to protect yourself and enough to make them take advantage of them! So, you, this important star, will Only then can the chess pieces be used according to his design!"

"If..." he lowered his voice, "two Yun families appear in the Shuofeng Empire, what do you think will happen?"

Luo Hanxing frowned and said, "Eight aristocratic families have become seven aristocratic families? Such a situation does not seem to be of much benefit to the royal family!"

"I think so too!" Ye Qingyuan agreed, "Currently, no matter how talented I am, I may not have the combat power to build a family race. There are too many resources required to build a strong family race. There are so many problems that can never be solved by relying on one’s own abilities!”

"That's not what you said!" Yang Wentao said. "It is true that one person cannot achieve such a goal. However, if there is full support from the royal family? Then the result will naturally be different!"

"It's just an accident. A new family race will soon appear in the empire, and this family race is supported by the royal family. Naturally, it is completely loyal to the royal family. It is a sword in the hands of the emperor, used to deal with the eight major families. sword!"

"Isn't this unnecessary?" Luo Qingyue asked in confusion, "The royal family wants to deal with the eight major families, why can't we just do it ourselves? Why is it unnecessary?"

"You don't understand this!" Yang Wentao shook his head and said, "With the power of the royal family, it is enough to clean up one or two families. However, when the eight major families unite, the fighting power they unleash is enough to shake the Sheji artifact! If there are not enough, Be sure. The royal family will never risk a showdown with a noble family at the risk of losing both sides!"

"So we need a chess piece, or a substitute to fight against the family. No matter whether we win or lose, the royal family has enough room for maneuver! Not only will it completely break up the relationship, but it will also be of no benefit to anyone!"

His words made everyone suddenly realize it! Ye Qingyuan was regarded as a sword by the emperor, a sword used to control the power of the family!

If Ye Qingyuan works hard and can defeat one or two races, then the royal family's goal will almost be achieved! If he fails, the royal family will only need to sacrifice him, not only for fighting with several major families!

"This emperor is so calculating!" Ye Qingyuan said slowly, with an inexplicable chill in his voice.

"What should we do now?" Luo Hanxing asked.

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly: "How do you deal with it? I'm going to use it as soon as I see it, and the troops will come to cover up the water and the earth! Then I'll see if the situation develops as they expect!"

"You mean, His Majesty gave that sword to Ye Qingyuan?" Yun Tianque asked with a solemn expression on the display of the hyperspace liaison device.

"It's absolutely true!" Cheng Guiyun said from the opposite side.

The chief power lord frowned deeply, and after a long time he said regretfully: "It seems that we really can't keep this child!"

Within the territory of the former Federation, the Yilan Star Territory.

The great lord's palace once again passed through the wormhole, and rushed towards the next wormhole under the guard of many battleships!

"Dear Lord, we are not far from the next line of defense of the human world!" The golden-robed priest told Alastam Qiqig on the throne, "There are still more than two thousand light years, about Dozens of wormholes! With the palace’s current reserve energy, it’s enough for you to use!”

"Hey! It's a pity that it took us too much time to repair the palace!" The big lord sighed, "Otherwise, that line of defense would never be able to stop the progress of my race. The war should be over by now!"

The golden-robed priest also agreed: "Yes! It was because of the damage to the palace that those despicable humans had the opportunity to take advantage of it. They dared to send a fleet to sneak attack in the occupied area of ​​​​my race. It is really hateful!"

"However, this is nothing. When the reinforcements of my race arrive, no matter how many fleets humans have, it will be useless!" The big lord said coldly, "By then, I will eat all the high-ranking figures among them as snacks. !”

Because of the overconfidence of the great lord, the palace was accidentally damaged and had to be stopped for a long period of repairs. The human coalition took the opportunity to launch an attack and sent a large number of fleets to conduct raids behind enemy lines. As a result, a large number of logistics bases and sacrificial temples were destroyed, and countless race people who were preparing to perform transformation ceremonies were killed! This greatly angered the top brass of the Kilizako people!

What happened next was a matter of course. Feeling that he had lost face, Alastam Chizige was furious and ordered half of the main fleet to retreat and completely clean up the rear! It took a lot of effort to clean up these nasty guys and leave them for a while! This allowed mankind to gain valuable breathing space and establish an effective line of defense!

It took a year and a half to repair the palace, which also wasted a lot of precious fighter planes and brought more unnecessary troubles to the people of Kilizako! The first problem is that the transformation time of many races has to be postponed again, which even affects the improvement of future combat effectiveness!

Moreover, according to the latest battle report, the Kilizako people experienced a disastrous defeat on the front line not long ago! A large number of elite soldiers were killed, which even affected the subsequent battle plan! And the human losses are minimal! How can their top management tolerate this?

Only by breaking through the defense line as soon as possible and collapsing the resistance of the human world can our race truly become the master of this starry sky! Only then will there be enough resources to realize the great rejuvenation plan of our tribe!

This is the calculation method in the mind of the great lord at this time!

"My Lord, your brother has heard about the situation where the great Kilizako fleet has been blocked, and has decided to come to support him personally. Currently, its palace has exited the ancient wormhole, and it has begun to estimate that it is coming here. I hope We can catch up with a few battles before the war ends!" the golden-robed priest added.

"My brother? What is it doing here!" the big lord said with some displeasure, "As long as I am here, nothing can intercept the footsteps of my race's fleet!"

"However, it's okay to come! End this damn war as soon as possible so that our race can hold the Qianlin Sacrifice Ceremony and enter the transformation period as soon as possible!"

"As long as the transformation period is over, my race can go out on a large scale to completely conquer the starry sky. By then, no force can stop the rise of our tribe! We will become the most powerful in the entire star sea. The most powerful and noble race!" the big lord roared excitedly.

"May the great god of my race protect us!" All the leaders of Mo Jing shouted in unison!

Even as the great lord's palace approaches, the human world is not idle either.

After careful analysis, the wise men at the top of the coalition believe that when the asteroid arrives, it will be difficult for humankind's defenses to withstand its attack! When this line of defense collapses, the situation of mankind will worsen, and it may even be the beginning of collapse!

After many discussions, the top management decided to figure out how to deal with the Kilizako fleet on the other side of the wormhole before it arrives, and then concentrate on dealing with that planet! At the same time, we spent a lot of money to ask for help from several established civilizations, hoping that they would take action!

"The plan is finalized!" In the office of the deputy commander of the 17th Superpower Corps, Ye Qingyuan quickly browsed the information on the monitor and said to Luo Qingyue beside him: "The above has mobilized a group of combat forces from the major legions. The elites from Seven Stars and above took advantage of their unpreparedness and secretly launched a large-scale counterattack over the wormhole!" (To be continued.)
