Chapter 2875 The Moon Empress' Decision!
Li Feng was the first to come back to his senses and asked Lin Yuan in an uncertain tone, "Young Master Lin, are you sure you can eliminate those two void passageways? If needed, you can dispatch all the factions in our Treasure City at will. We will cooperate with you!"
Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "There's no need. I've already said that the experts in Treasure City only need to think about how to deal with the star pirates. My people alone are sufficient to eliminate these two void passageways!"
Lin Yuan told the shocked people around him, "As long as everyone works together, we can overcome this obstacle, so let's not be pessimistic! When City Lord Li arranges the mission later, I hope that everyone can devote 100% of their energy and determination to complete their mission!
"If anyone's morale wavers, even if City Lord Li doesn't take action, I won't let them off easily!"
When Lin Yuan spoke these words, he changed his previous gentle demeanor and showed off his ability. At that moment, Lin Yuan's power and influence directly overshadowed the City Lord of Treasure City.
Lin Yuan was very well aware that in such an extremely low morale situation, even if he managed to eliminate the two void passageways, it would be very difficult for the morale to recover quickly.
Lin Yuan intended to use his influence to intimidate the experts here. He wanted to simultaneously uplift their morale and get them to listen to Li Feng's arrangements.
If everyone went their own way in such a situation, even if Winter managed to eliminate the two void passageways, the star pirates would still wreak havoc upon Treasure City, thus making it difficult for Lin Yuan to find out which faction was supporting the star pirates and what their goal was.
Not only did Winter have to deal with these two void passageways, but he also had to maintain the operation of the grand formation, which would surely hold him back.
Another person Lin Yuan could only rely on was Spring. Nevertheless, Spring had to stay by his side to protect his safety. Therefore, even if the star pirates really attacked Treasure City, Lin Yuan would not be able to let Spring protect Treasure City.
Lin Yuan had already made a huge contribution by letting Winter destroy the two void passageways. No matter what, he had to prioritize his own safety above all else. The entire Sky City was still waiting for Lin Yuan to manage and develop it.
Li Feng looked at Lin Yuan gratefully. Lin Yuan represented Fortune Treasure Palace as the main representative of the VIPs. However, he did not bring him any resistance. Not only that, but Lin Yuan also helped to uplift the morale of those present. He owed the young man in front of him a huge favor.
Jin Chen looked at Lin Yuan with a complicated yet joyful expression. Initially, Jin Chen had caused trouble for Lin Yuan, but under Spring's threat, he eventually became one of Lin Yuan's subordinates. There was a hint of reluctance in his heart because being taken under Lin Yuan's wing meant losing his freedom.
Jin Chen admired Spring's strength. He even speculated that Spring might be an expert who had reached the pinnacle of the Holy Spirit level or even surpassed it. However, apart from this powerful female expert, there was another expert following Lin Yuan.
After learning about the strength of the two void passageways, Lin Yuan actually promised to eliminate them by noon the next day. This was something that Jin Chen did not even dare to think about.
Without Lin Yuan, the two pinnacle Class 3 void passageways alone would be enough to flatten Treasure City, and he would most likely not be able to survive in Treasure City.
Lin Yuan was equivalent to his savior. From this perspective, he would have to rely on Lin Yuan in the future, and losing his freedom was a matter of course. His master was so powerful that it filled Jin Chen, a Holy Spirit expert, with a sense of security.
In such a dangerous environment like the Sky Beyond the Clouds, even Holy Spirit experts had to live a life of bloodshed.
It was fine for those Holy Spirit experts from large species. They had the support of their species and could rely on them.
Despite their small number, the Sky Radish Endless Vines were considered a large species in the Species Ranking. However, the other members of the Sky Radish Endless Vines were far more dangerous to Jin Chen than the Holy Spirit experts he had offended.
Under normal circumstances, unless it was a life-and-death feud, a Holy Spirit expert would not fight with another Holy Spirit expert whose strength was similar to theirs. Even if they were stronger and managed to eliminate the other party, it was very likely that they would damage their roots. A Holy Spirit expert whose roots were injured could easily become prey for others.
As Jin Chen followed Lin Yuan, he felt reassured that he would be less likely to encounter danger in the future.
Lin Yuan left a positive impression on Yin Ruo. To her, Lin Yuan seemed much more approachable than Jin Chen. She found Lin Yuan's words to be beyond her comprehension as well.
At that moment, Yin Ruo and Zhan Lu shared similar feelings. When Lin Yuan displayed his strength, both of them wanted to try their best to get closer to him.
Just as Zhan Lu was about to say something to Lin Yuan, he heard Li Feng laugh heartily. "Young Master Lin, you've given Treasure City hope. You're now the backbone in our hearts. Thank you very much for your willingness to help Treasure City."
After expressing his gratitude to Lin Yuan again, he said solemnly, "Since everyone from Fortune Treasure Palace is already here and Young Master Lin can resolve the impact brought by these two void passageways, then let's go to the meeting room of the City Lord Manor and study how to deal with these star pirates!
"The moment the seal on the void passageways disappears, I will immediately seek help from Honor Absent Palace. We only need to hold on for less than two days, and aid will arrive!"
If Lin Yuan had not asked everyone to cooperate with him as the City Lord, Li Feng would not have dared to steal Lin Yuan's limelight, as this was equivalent to questioning Lin Yuan's authority. However, after Lin Yuan provided him with an opportunity, Li Feng wielded the authority of the City Lord and began to take charge of the situation.
Lin Yuan wasn't certain if what he had just said would circulate within Treasure City and eventually reach the ears of the star pirates and the people behind them.
First of all, those star pirates and the people behind them might not believe him. It was impossible for this group of star pirates to find out Winter's whereabouts. Secondly, even if they knew and took precautions, it probably wouldn't affect Winter much.
Lin Yuan did not want to put Winter in danger, so he had specially inquired Winter about this prior to the operation. Winter had made it clear that even if two more void passageways were opened, they wouldn't become a burden to him. Even if it really advanced to Class 4, it would only require him more time to eliminate it.
…
In the wilderness of North of the Lonely River, a country formed by villages scattered all over the area had been established. It was operating in an orderly manner under management.
At present, the Moon Empress' mind was focused on the envoys from the Spinning Wings White Falcons. She was afraid that the envoys would suddenly cause trouble.
The Moon Empress had personally asked Kani about the situation near the King Blood Jackals' territory. According to Kani's description, the Spinning Wings White Falcons were much stronger than the King Blood Jackals. This made the Moon Empress rather wary of them.
The Moon Empress was never the kind of person who did not dare to fight or risk her life. If this matter only concerned the Moon Empress herself, she would act very radically. However, this matter concerned the entire Sky City and the newly established faith country.
The faith country had just been established. Any setback would affect the relatively good collection of faith at the moment. The twists and turns would cause the citizens of the faith country to lose the sense of security that they had painstakingly built up.
If Sky City could not handle this storm, it would take a long time for the citizens of the faith country to regain their lost trust!
If Lin Yuan were in Sky City, he would have made the decision. However, now that Lin Yuan was not around, she had to help Lin Yuan manage Sky City on his behalf. The Moon Empress really did not want to fail to protect Lin Yuan's foundation as it would reflect poorly on her capabilities as his Master.
Fortunately, Autumn had returned. Not only did Autumn manage to investigate the situation of the Spinning Wings White Falcons, but he also gained a certain understanding of the Crimson Heaven Falcons.
Autumn had made it clear to the Moon Empress that the Crimson Heaven Falcons were not formidable enough to pose a threat to Sky City.
After the Moon Empress repeatedly confirmed with Autumn and received his affirmative answer several times, the Moon Empress decided that she would no longer tolerate the envoys.
The Moon Empress sent Mystic Moon to inform the two female King Blood Jackals in charge of managing the King Blood Jackals that if the envoys did something out of line, they would be directly eliminated.
At the same time, he asked the two female King Blood Jackals to inform the envoys that Kani was in seclusion and that it would be impossible to finish her seclusion in a short period. Hence, the envoys should leave first. When Kani came out of seclusion, she would visit them.
It would be fine if the envoys chose to leave tactfully. If they refused to do so, then the Moon Empress would simply let Autumn eliminate them to send a clear message to intimidate the entire Spinning Wings White Falcons.
If conflict became inevitable, they would simply engage in battle.
Ever since Lin Yuan left, the Moon Empress noticed that regardless of whether it was Wen Yu, Liu Jie, Su Yiren, Luo Lan, or the white-clothed followers, they no longer had the confidence to do things like in the main world. She felt that it was crucial for the core members of Sky City to regain their confidence.
If Lin Yuan was currently in Sky City, the Moon Empress believed that he would most likely make the same decision as her.
If Sky City was extremely vulnerable and hid away, there would be no point in developing a faith country. Moreover, Sky City's retreat would only fuel the arrogance of the Spinning Wings White Falcons.
If the Spinning Wings White Falcons discovered the existence of the faith country, they would definitely attack it and steal the faith generated by them. By that time, a protracted war would ensue. If they wanted to prevent it from happening, it would be better to suppress the Spinning Wings White Falcons from the beginning.
…
Upon receiving Mystic Moon's news, the two female King Blood Jackals couldn't contain their excitement. Before Kani left, she had imparted some teachings to the two female King Blood Jackals.
Apart from teaching them how to manage the King Blood Jackals on her behalf, Kani had also made it clear to them that Sky City was exceptionally powerful. Sky City's strength was formidable enough for the King Blood Jackals not to have to fear the Spinning Wings White Falcons or even the Crimson Heaven Falcons.
These two female King Blood Jackals were already thoroughly fed up with the envoys. If not for the fact that they hadn't received a reply from the Moon Empress for a long time, they wouldn't have tolerated it any longer.
The two female King Blood Jackals were not the only ones who were furious. The envoys were equally furious.
White Howl was an Elder of the Spinning Wings White Falcons, capable of representing his species in dealing with the King Blood Jackals. He had quite a high status among the Spinning Wings White Falcons.
White Howl had arrived at the King Blood Jackals' territory for some time. Different species had different living habits and suitable environments. The King Blood Jackals preferred dark and humid surroundings, so the buildings in their territory had extremely poor ventilation.
In the residence provided by the King Blood Jackals, White Howl and the other envoys felt abnormally depressed.
Under normal circumstances, if one species extended kindness to another, they would prepare a suitable living environment for the envoys. However, not only was the living environment provided by King Blood Jackals inadequate, but their food was also less appetizing compared to what White Howl was accustomed to.
Moreover, Kani had yet to make an appearance.
The King Blood Jackals didn't appear to be taking the Spinning Wings White Falcons seriously. They had only produced a Holy Spirit expert, yet they were already so arrogant.
Before the two female King Blood Jackals came to look for him, White Howl had already flared up.
Among the King Blood Jackals, the status of female King Blood Jackals was much higher than that of male King Blood Jackals. However, the attendants that the King Blood Jackals had arranged for the Spinning Wings White Falcons were all male.
The more White Howl looked at these male King Blood Jackals, the more displeased he became. He extended his claws forward in a threatening gesture. The two whirlwinds struck the male King Blood Jackals who were setting up meals for the envoys and tore a total of 24 of them into bloody pulp.
Upon witnessing this, most of the Spinning Wings White Falcons cheered loudly and applauded. Only a few envoys secretly frowned. Killing the King Blood Jackals in their own territory was tantamount to declaring war. It was the opposite of what they had come for.
What if the King Blood Jackals were dissatisfied and conflict arose due to this? White Howl was not a Holy Spirit expert, and his strength was only at the pinnacle of the World Emperor/Divine Kingdom.
It was impossible for him to resist Kani, a genuine Holy Spirit expert!
