Chapter 1151: He, Ruthlessly
Glazed Death Realm.
Di Yuan Group encampment.
"A terrible defeat," lamented King Ya Di.
"Your excellency is a master of strategy!" Commander Pei En offered a flattering compliment, "Ni Yuan Group tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice, suffering a huge loss indeed."
King Ya Di sighed lightly, "But I didn't expect them to lose so badly, with half of them gone! Such a thing usually only happens when encountering the powerful chaos races on Source Group missions."
Commander Pei En said, "Thankfully, sir, you remained calm, sparing us from disaster."
The strength of Di Yuan Group is slightly weaker than that of Ni Yuan Group.
If they really went to the origin cosmic, their defeat would be even more tragic.
"The origin cosmic is tough; we shouldn't mess with it," declared King Ya Di. "I have reported to the outer area institution and sought intervention from the Combat Department."
"Will it be approved?" asked Commander Pei En.
"Shouldn't be a problem," said King Ya Di. "Given Ni Yuan Group's recent losses in the failure, it's highly probable that the Combat Department will intervene. By then, all we'll have to do is reap the benefits."
"Although we can't earn merits from the high-dimensional cosmic, at least we'll be able to share some Task Points."
Commander Pei En laughed, "That's still better than Ni Yuan Group, who came up empty-handed like drawing water with a bamboo basket."
King Ya Di commented, "It's their own greed to blame. The origin cosmic is clearly unusual, yet they insisted on diving right in. The Great Bliss Divine Domain is no longer the same as when we once dominated the high-dimensional cosmic."
"In the future, major powers, including the Golden-Winged Divine Race and chaos races, will all surface, leading to a fractured world of competing factions!"
"There will also be more unique cosmic talents emerging on the scene!"
"It will be an era where chaos breeds heroes!"

Origin cosmic.
The Golden-Winged Divine Race has retreated in defeat.
The Sky race and Dark race appear to be inactive, but in reality, undercurrents are swirling, with tremendous upheaval brewing within!
Due to the rise of humans and the pressure from the allied forces of the spiritual race and Strength race, the balance of power is tremendous!
The once-stable three-legged stand has started to tilt.
"I didn't expect the side to tilt to be the spiritual race and humans," muttered divine son Lotaro, shaking his head.
He had thought that with the support of the Golden-Winged Divine Race, they would be the most dominant within the three-legged balance of power.
But in a short time, the rise of humans and the reinforcement of the spiritual race have swiftly changed the situation.
"Our best course now is to fortify ourselves," declared divine daughter Luo Qingyin. "Perhaps we can communicate with the Dark race to see if they are willing to join forces with us to eradicate the humans."
"I've already made contact. The Three Emperors didn't outright refuse but said they needed to consider," divine son Lotaro snorted. "In my opinion, with the Dark race's spinelessness, they might have already submitted to the Netherworld Race!"
Luo Qingyin pursed her lips, remaining silent.
She had no right to judge the Dark race.
After all, the Sky race was only one step away from submitting to the Golden-Winged Divine Race.
"Sister, have you contacted the Golden-Winged Divine Race?" Lotaro suddenly asked.
"They haven't responded," replied Luo Qingyin. "But knowing the nature of the Golden-Winged Divine Race, they won't suffer in silence. Sooner or later, they'll come back to avenge the insult, and then..."
"Sigh."
With a sigh, both siblings looked somewhat disheartened.
As bearers of the most pure bloodline of the Sky race, the pressure they shouldered was immense.
Stay connected with empire
You could say that one false step might lead to irreversible doom.
Yet the paths available to them were limited.
"Let's not worry about the Golden-Winged Divine Race for now," suggested divine son Lotaro. "With the formidable rise of the allied human forces, we must do something. Otherwise, the situation will only get worse."
Divine daughter Luo Qingyin said, "Letty has gone to reach out to the Spiritual Empress to see if she can be persuaded. If humans and the spiritual race fall apart, the allied human forces will collapse from within."
Divine son Lotaro praised the idea, "Good plan! Even if we can't persuade the Spiritual Empress, at least it'll sow seeds of distrust, creating a rift between them."
Divine daughter Luo Qingyin nodded, "Additionally, we should be ready for combat at any moment. The allied human forces have high morale right now; they might surge forward and break the three-legged balance of power, assaulting the Dark race!"
Divine son Lotaro frowned in confusion, "That's not right. There's no news or movement within the Primordial Human Race about attacking the Dark race; they probably don't have such intentions."
Divine daughter Luo Qingyin asserted, "Humans are cunning. No matter what, we must be on guard."
"And this could be a good opportunity. If we can help the Dark race defend their territory, not only could we severely damage the humans, but we could also form a temporary alliance, joining forces to strike back at the allied human forces!"
"Regain the initiative!"
...
The Primordial Star.
"The Sky race wants to win you over?" Wang Ye looked at the Spiritual Empress in surprise.
The Spiritual Empress smiled lightly, "Human Emperor, your acting has somewhat regressed. How could you not be aware of the Sky race's sowing discord tactic?"
Wang Ye grinned, "But I didn't expect that you, Spiritual Empress, would personally come here to clarify."
With a smile, the Spiritual Empress said, "We are partners with no secrets, and it's only right to be completely honest with each other."
"Is that so," Wang Ye replied with an ambiguous smile, "What promise did the Sky race make to you?"
The Spiritual Empress's phoenix eyes flashed with a sharp light, "Cooperation for mutual benefit, to abolish the position of the Dark race."
Wang Ye nodded.
The Sky race still has some capabilities.
In these two defenses of the Primordial Star, the combat prowess displayed by the spiritual race was clearly not lesser than the Dark race.
Once the two major races joined forces, they could indeed suppress the Dark race.
Including their own alliance, which would fall apart on its own.
But the Sky race didn't know that.
The Spiritual Empress only controlled a small part of the military forces of the Natural Star lineage.
What he controlled was the main force!
The army of the spiritual race led by Spiritual Princess Ling Qi obeyed him!
Including the Rui Emperor, who currently inclined towards him!
The Spiritual Empress had no capital to betray.
Therefore, she was very smart to lower her stature and come to the Primordial Star to show her loyalty to him.
"You didn't refuse her, did you?" Wang Ye looked at the Spiritual Empress.
"Mhm." The Spiritual Empress nodded, her demeanor full of grace, "Because I was thinking, for the Human Emperor, this might be an excellent opportunity to disintegrate the Sky race."
Wang Ye nodded.
It must be said that the Spiritual Empress also understands my heart.
She managed to pull Spiritual Princess Ling Qi down from the throne, indeed she was genuinely capable.
Unlike Spiritual Princess Ling Qi, who only knew superficial pleasantries.
Shallow!
Is this what I like?
"Keep leading them on." Wang Ye contemplated, "Agreeing too soon to their requests will only invite..."
Pausing briefly, Wang Ye looked at the facial features of the Spiritual Empress, beautiful as a painting, and smiled wryly, "You'll take care of it. I'm currently too busy to deal with them."
The Spiritual Empress's phoenix eyes were clear, "Is the next step the Dark race?"
"Yes." Wang Ye did not hide it, "It's a ticking time bomb that must be defused as soon as possible."
The Spiritual Empress softly acknowledged.
She wouldn't ask more.
Although she was also curious about the means by which Wang Ye would eliminate the Dark race,
with his abilities, he would certainly consider all aspects and not give the Sky race any opportunity to exploit.
The him now, was no longer what he used to be.
Even she had to bend to his will.
The Spiritual Empress's phoenix eyes looked toward Spiritual Princess Ling Qi smiling beside Wang Ye, giving a subtle nod.
Because she was well aware that once she no longer held any value to Wang Ye, or even posed a risk, he would not hesitate to discard her and deny their acquaintance.
He was utterly ruthless.
...
"What do you think?" Wang Ye looked in the direction of the departing Spiritual Empress.
"Her? She's always been smart." Spiritual Princess Ling Qi huffed, "She knows the rules of the game well, knows when to show weakness and when to assert dominance, annoyingly so!"
Wang Ye embraced Spiritual Princess Ling Qi's subtly gripped waist, "Then why did you smile at her just now?"
Twisting her waist coquettishly, Spiritual Princess Ling Qi said, "Because I am happy, to see her so proud yet forced to lower her haughty head in front of you, it delights me greatly!"
Wang Ye laughed, "But privately, you're much lower than her."
Spiritual Princess Ling Qi glared at him, "That's to serve you, my husband! Besides, if you, my husband, desired it, even privately... the Spiritual Empress might also lower her head, giggle."
Wang Ye shook his head, "Then you are mistaken, the Spiritual Empress is very proud at heart, she is lowly before me only because she is compelled by circumstances."
"If pushed too far, she might actually join hands with the Sky race and seek a lifeline."
Spiritual Princess Ling Qi giggled, "Wouldn't that be just perfect?"
Wang Ye squeezed her teasingly.
One a former Spiritual Empress, and one the current Spiritual Empress, neither was easy to deal with.
Neither was simple-minded!
Thinking it over, Spiritual Princess Ling Si was still better.
"Tell me, are you thinking about that little demon, Spiritual Princess Ling Si!" Spiritual Princess Ling Qi's creamy hands wrapped around Wang Ye's neck, her delicate body sitting on his lap, her eyes bewitching as silk, her breath as sweet as orchid.
"How did you know?" Wang Ye smiled.
Squinting her slender eyes, Spiritual Princess Ling Qi whispered in his ear, "If you really like her, once I inherit the spiritual race's dominance in three thousand years, whether it's the Spiritual Empress or Ling Si, I'll tie them up and present them to you to enjoy, alright~"
"Hmm? Worth considering."
"But for now, you are only allowed to dote on me, mmh—"
