"So, you're doing all this because of pride? You will allow trillions to die for such a stupid thing?" asked Wang Wei.

"Not just any pride, but the pride of martial artists," replied Qian Heng. "If we back down now and surrender, the collective martial art will of all the cultivators in this world will shatter, turning our cultivation system into a waste."

The core idea of their martial arts system is that they can bend and stretch but cannot surrender. Otherwise, no one will ever pass the Death Realm, let alone condense a Golden Body. So, this war has become one to preserve their world, culture, and cultivation systems.

"Not to mention, I believe you're a scourge to the lower dimension," continued Qian Heng. "I hope our resistance signals other worlds to resist no matter whether they are destined to lose."

Wang Wei's eyes squinted after hearing those words. He noticed a strange destiny gathering around Qian Heng.

'Interesting. Is this a natural response to True Heavenly Dao's Balance Mechanism?' True Heavenly Dao must function based on balance, at least in the lower dimension. As such, even if the latter favored him and blessed him with a great destiny, it would also place difficulty in its path.

'Or is this Supreme Unity's last-ditch effort to prevent me from making the lower dimension enter an era of prosperity?'

Supreme Unity is one of the few things that can disturb True Heavenly Dao's Balance Mechanism, making it act out of character or with true selfish motives.

'Qian Heng or anyone who inherits this destiny is not a threat to me, but I should still watch them closely to prevent any unknown variable,' concluded Wang Wei. His gaze shifted beyond Qian Heng into the fog.

"What about you guys?"

His voice penetrated the fog and transmitted to all the top echelons standing in this world's court, watching and strategizing for this war.

"Do you also share the same idea as Qian Heng? Do you want your world to suffer because of his choice?"

The room was quiet until Lightning Fist summoned the courage to speak. "We do." She would never allow Snake Saber's sacrifice to be in vain. So, she was prepared to fight until her dying breath and would kill anyone who betrayed the world or surrendered. After she spoke, the others also followed: whether they honestly shared this sentiment or wanted to follow the crowd, it did not matter since they agreed on fighting until their last breath.

"What a shame," sighed Wang Wei before his eyes shifted to Reverend Tranquility. Although he was not present in the room, everyone could tell who he was looking at.

"The people from the Celestial Harmony World?"

"What? What are you talking about?" said the reverend with an ugly expression.

"What a brilliant plan," continued Wang Wei. "These Taoists cut off one of their legs to ensure they could leave a pawn in this world, and then they began their invasion from the shadows. They controlled 70% of this world's professional Dao, especially the Alchemy Dao.

"Then, when the time comes for their return, they only need to stop providing their service, and this world will enter a long period of chaos as people realize they can no longer acquire the resources they need to cultivate. By then, an invasion has a much higher chance of success. What a brilliant strategy. I wonder who came up with it."

The room's temperature immediately dropped to freezing as countless eyes stared at Reverend Tranquility. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

"How long has this turtle lived?"

"He survived the Null Era, so he can be called ancient."

"Now it makes more sense," nodded Ao Shen.

"Go discreetly," added Wang Wei before dismissing everybody. Then, with a wave of his hand, a screen floated before him, showing a beautiful face after a few minutes. Sword One appeared on the screen without her mask.

"Sect Master," she saluted.

"We're alone, so there is no need for the formality," Wang Wei replied casually. "What's the latest news?"

"The same. They want to intervene in this confrontation but still fear you. They've been putting more pressure on He Shiyi, asking him to fulfill his promise."

Wang Wei nodded, "What's He Shiyi's response?"

"We haven't found out exactly, but we know he's placated many factions while the rest are still mad at him."

"So, he might be already prepared or still preparing," uttered Wang Wei. "Has our business been affected?"

"On the contrary, it's booming better than before. They are trying to appease us and have opened many doors for us," explained Sword One. "Of course, that's a facade. When the moment is right, they will strike and take everything."

Wang Wei nodded as this tactic was obvious. "What about the Star Beast World? How is their business?"

"Some people tried to sanction them until we intervened, and they backed down; they also started treating them like us."

Wang Wei did not say anything as he became lost in his thoughts for a few seconds. "Anything else to report?"

"Someone wants to propose expanding the hub to all world communities before gathering everyone's power to deal with us. We've temporarily delayed him until you decide what we should do."

"There is no need to delay him. A rapid expansion at this stage of the game will only scatter their forces and make them even more vulnerable. If they are stupid enough to do such a thing, I would praise Heaven," commented Wang Wei.

"As you wish. Any other order?"

"Tell Wang Ju to keep watch on the Abyss Gap," added Wang Wei. "I don't want these bastards to release the seal out of desperation."

"I will."

After this call, Wang Wei contacted Gao Buqin and Desolate On in the Battle Spirit World to check on He Shiyi's actions. He received some bad news as the alliance of Emperor Lineages Gao Buqin created to balance the Spirit Genesis Sect contained some traitors. Some information has been leaked, and they have lost their ability to monitor He Shiyi. Wang Wei promised to send them more Fate Shadow Guard to rectify the situation before ending the conversation.

'Once this war ends, it's time to finish things with He Shiyi, Emperor Jia, and the Commerce Hub,' thought Wang Wei. He looked in the distance and smiled before disappearing.
