Chapter 698: Chapter 382: Leaving and Response Measures_2

Sir Lie Yan,

You,

are a great person!

If it weren’t for the pressure of staying close to Chen Sheng being so immense.

Shi Jian even wanted to kowtow twice to Lie Yan to express his gratitude.

“Let’s go, keep up with sir.”

Ignoring Shi Jian’s eager eyes.

Lie Yan reluctantly supported the unconscious Long Aotian and followed Chen Sheng’s footsteps out of the light screen.

Soon,

the figures of the group disappeared into the skyline.

————

On a certain planet.

Beach.

Lu Yang stood alone in a corner, his face frosty as he stared at the unresponsive communicator in front of him.

“Chen Sheng…”

“You just wouldn’t die.”

“And you even had to appear in front of me, opposing me…”

He murmured to himself.

Seeing that Chen Sheng had managed to grow his strength enough to kill a Galaxy Level Powerhouse and personally kill a member of the Resistance Army, disrupting their effort to win over the Spiritual Martial King, all in such a short amount of time.

In Lu Yang’s heart, there was no longer any pity or guilt left for this once promising genius.

Only a strong sense of crisis and endless doubts.

How did Chen Sheng enhance his strength so quickly?

And how did he manage to connect with the Spiritual Martial King?

Having abandoned Chen Sheng and that world before, would Chen Sheng hold a grudge and seek revenge against the Resistance Army?

Given such a terrifying and unimaginable rate of strength improvement.

If allowed to continue developing like this…

No.

He couldn’t simply let Chen Sheng continue to grow.

In the depths of Lu Yang’s eyes, a faint hint of murderous intent surfaced.

Regardless of whether the crisis might actually occur,

he must nip the problem in the bud.

With that thought,

Lu Yang activated his communicator again.

This time,

his communication target was his direct superior.

One of the three great leaders of the Resistance Army, Zuo Wei.

Now a part of the management layer, Lu Yang could contact the Leader directly without going through a communicator, by simply making a request.

If the other side accepted the application, the two would meet in the Dark Space as they had last time.

As the Glass bead faintly emitted a faint glow,

Lu Yang soon felt his vision go dark.

When his vision returned,

he was already in the black space where they met last time.

“I am already aware of the situation.”

Upon arriving,

Lu Yang heard Zuo Wei’s voice.

He looked up,

and saw the other party sitting on a chair, smiling at him.

“Lu Yang, you have disappointed the Leader,” he said, bowing his head full of apologies.

“I have a rough understanding of what happened on that planet.”

“That’s not your fault.”

“Rather, that Chen Sheng kid has caught my eye.”

The rules above the Broken Planet

were personally established by Zuo Wei.

Although he was currently preoccupied with handling the pursuit of the Subordinates’ Commander, along with other leaders, and couldn’t dedicate much attention,

he could still take a moment to sense what was happening on that planet.

“Chen Sheng’s rate of strength growth is beyond imagination, and he is one to bear grudges.”

“I fear that he harbors resentment because of the past events, it is better to…”

Lu Yang didn’t finish his sentence.

But the murderous intent in his voice couldn’t be clearer.

“This move…is somewhat improper,” was Zuo Wei’s response that somewhat surprised Lu Yang.

Facing Lu Yang’s puzzled look,

he smiled slightly and explained patiently,

“Success cannot rely solely on aggression and conflict.”

“Apart from beings like the Subordinates who fundamentally cannot coexist with us due to their vested interests,”

“other individuals, universes, and powers…”

“To us, there have never been natural enemies at all.”

“Only those with related interests.”

“As long as there is common ground, even former enemies can potentially become allies.”

Hearing this,

Lu Yang seemed to understand.

“Does the Leader mean… to re-recruit Chen Sheng?”

“Indeed.”

Zuo Wei slowly nodded, showing a pleased expression at the prospect of teaching.

“Regarding Chen Sheng, you can put your mind at ease.”

“His growth isn’t as terrifying as you imagine.”

Upon sensing the events of the broken world,

Zuo Wei had a clear understanding of Chen Sheng’s current power level and how he defeated the Galaxy Level Huan Ling.

The power of a Practitioner…

A law that had never appeared before.

As one of the Resistance Army’s leaders and a formidable power in the universe,

Zuo Wei naturally recognized it.

Therefore,

he became deeply interested in Chen Sheng himself.

Wanting to walk the path of a Practitioner wasn’t just a matter of wishing; it required the right combination of circumstances, location, and people—it was indispensable.

If such a character could live long enough,

he might become a significant asset to the Resistance Army.

If not…

“His current strength is merely at Starburst Level.”

“He managed to kill Huan Ling by relying on other abilities.”

“You can dispatch people from the branch to make contact with Chen Sheng.”

“Whatever Chen Sheng needs, whether it’s to protect his home or cultivation resources, our Resistance Army can provide.”

“If he agrees, then bring him to see me.”

“If he does not agree…”

At this point,

Zuo Wei’s gaze grew profound.

“When facing enemies, either do nothing,”

“or go all out. Do not leave any loose ends.”

“Even if the enemy’s strength is mediocre, one must not underestimate them.”

“Understood?”

Upon hearing this,

Lu Yang felt a chill in his heart.

He nodded gravely.

“This time, I shall not disappoint the Leader.”

“Your subordinate takes his leave.”

Having said that,

Lu Yang immediately exited the communication.

His vision swiftly passed through space.

Soon,

he exited the dark space, returning to the beach once again.

Standing there, he observed the lively atmosphere on the beach.

Lu Yang’s gaze was deep, his thoughts unknown.

————

Broken Planet.

Two hours after Chen Sheng and others had left,

a figure wearing a Blank Mask descended from the sky.

She landed directly in the City Center within the light screen.

From her long hair trailing behind and at her waist, as well as the bulge at her chest,

it seemed to be a female.

However,

compared to ordinary females,

this one… was rather too robust.

Over two meters in height.

The tight uniform outlined swollen muscle contours.

Standing there, she was like a towering iron tower.

Mere sight of her conveyed an exaggerated sense of strength.

After landing,

the woman in the mask began to investigate her surroundings, asking about Chen Sheng and others from the geniuses hiding in the training facility.

It didn’t take long for her

to piece together the ins and outs of the situation and take out a communicator.

“What’s the situation?”

Lu Yang’s serious expression appeared on the surface of the communicator.

“The grandson of the Spiritual Martial King has been taken away.”

“All members of the Resistance Army guarding this place are dead.”

“The attackers have also already left.”

Listening to the woman’s brief narration,

Lu Yang nodded slightly and then closed his eyes, as if in contemplation.

“I understand.”

“Return to the branch and meet up with the negotiation team; follow them and immediately head to the Spiritual Martial World.”

Spiritual Martial World?

A hint of confusion flashed in the eyes behind the mask.

Now that Long Aotian has already been rescued,

even if most of the people on this Broken Planet were disguised as Subordinates, the Spiritual Martial King would hardly have any evidence to accuse the Resistance Army.

But in his heart, he probably has a clear understanding of the truth.

This negotiation,

will surely not succeed.

Why does she have to follow them?

As confusion arose from the bottom of the woman’s heart,

Lu Yang had already provided the answer.

The image on the communicator changed.

Chen Sheng’s figure appeared on it.

“Chen Sheng, Power Level is Starburst Level, his world’s number k42365487942…”

“Your negotiation team’s primary mission is to recruit this human male named Chen Sheng.”

“I will inform you of the specific details later.”

This person… isn’t he the one who killed Huan Ling?

Is he really just at Starburst Level?

The eyebrows behind the mask furrowed slightly.

The woman instinctively felt that the situation was not simple.

Perhaps there was some secret about this person named Chen Sheng, which is why the Resistance Army extended an olive branch to him.

“But what if he refuses?”

She immediately asked Lu Yang.

“Refuse?”

At this point,

Lu Yang’s voice seemed to undergo a subtle change.

“This person, during his acceptance of the Spiritual Martial King’s invitation to rescue his grandson Long Aotian, inexplicably killed members of the Resistance Army who also came to rescue Long Aotian.”

“Although our Resistance Army seldom makes enemies with those outside the Subordinates, we are not to be trifled with.”

“The negotiation team can aim to recruit, but can also target to kill the enemy.”

“As for the Spiritual Martial King, I have my own plans for his existence; you needn’t worry.”

“But if Chen Sheng refuses recruitment,”

“you all must strike with the force of thunder, leaving no chance for him to escape. Understood?”

“Understood.”

The woman in the mask bowed her head in response.

“Good.”

“Time is pressing, set off immediately.”

As the words fell,

the robust figure soared into the sky.

In an instant,

she had disappeared into the skyline.
