Chapter 2574: We Are the Same Kind of People!

Li Yao was about to spat on Wuying Qi’s face and curse that his words were nothing more than bulls*it. How could he have been so shameless as to say that “everything in the past will be pardoned”? Did he really think that “Vulture Li Yao, the Black Wind King” was a three-year-old?

His heart tightened, he suddenly realized what was wrong, and his back was covered in a cold sweat. Pretending to be shocked, he blurted out, “A country of Cultivators, what is that? I have said that Firefly was already destroyed in civil wars, and the Star Ocean Republic is no more. What country of Cultivators are you talking about?”

“Hehe, your reaction was quick enough and did not give yourself away.”

Wuying Qi said with a smile, “However, it is useless. You and I are both clear that what I am talking about is not the Star Ocean Republic but a country at the edge of the cosmos whose name is unknown but whose strength is remarkable.”

“There’s no need for you to cover it or waste your time explaining. It’s just a simple reasoning. The medals, the scepter, and the soul signatures of the Black Wind Fleet that you presented were all authentic. So, it is doubtless that you are the authentic Black Wind King. However, I am also certain that you are a Cultivator with firm beliefs, although you can be quite shameless.

“How can a firm Cultivator become the Black Wind King? There can only be one answer. Qi Yuanbao’s guess was correct. The Black Wind Fleet was indeed crushed by the Cultivators. The Immortal Cultivators of the Black Wind Fleet, too cowardly to die, succ.u.mbed to you.

“Here comes the question. It was absolutely impossible for the defeated soldiers in the government-in-exile of the Star Ocean Republic to crush the Black Wind Fleet. In that case, wouldn’t the answer be obvious? Besides Firefly, there’s another country of Cultivators whose comprehensive combat ability is higher than that of the Black Wind Fleet.

“Vulture Li Yao, what is the name of your motherland? How many Sectors do you have? Five? Eight? Ten? Also, the native of the Covenant Alliance who explored the Supreme Emperor’s mausoleum with Li Linghai years ago actually did not escape to Firefly but to the country of Cultivators, didn’t he?

“Firefly had been drifting in the sea of stars all the time and paid great attention to the stars.h.i.+ps of the Imperium to avoid their hunting. How could the native of the Covenant Alliance have found Firefly? It was too much a coincidence. I’ve been suspicious about that all the time. However, if he had in fact ended up in a country at the border of the universe, everything would make sense!”

Stunned for a long time, Li Yao laughed in amus.e.m.e.nt.

“I have no idea what you are talking about!”

Li Yao shouted, “As such an imaginative man, you should be a writer instead of an emperor!”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Do you know how people behave when they are panicked? It is exactly what you look like right now. Although your breath, heartbeat, temperature, blood flow, and even secretion of adrenalin are absolutely normal, I have sensed that your consumption rate of your spiritual energy has increased by more than 10% all of a sudden. Why are you wasting so much of your spiritual energy for no good reason? Are you not suppressing your biophysical parameters so that you would not reveal your panic?”

Wuying Qi’s smile on Wuying Qinxin’s face was more and more intense and creepy. Pointing the bleeding broken hand at Li Yao, he said, one word after another, “Now, both you and the country of Cultivators behind you have been busted. The general coordinates of the Black Wind Fleet are not a secret to me. In the meantime, unlike Firefly, it is impossible for your motherland to get away easily. So, if I launch an expedition toward the border of the cosmos with a great army in person after settling the chaos at the center of the cosmos, how is your motherland going to resist?”

Li Yao’s heart was finally beating crazily beyond his control, like a flood that had just surpa.s.sed the dam.

“Hahahaha. It seems that you have finally admitted, Vulture Li Yao!”

Wuying Qi burst into laughter. “How should I call you? The last survivor of Firefly, the Black Wind King, or the special representative of this country of Cultivators which must be very interesting although n.o.body knows it? Let me see. Right, after subduing the Black Wind Fleet and learning the magnificence of the Imperium of True Human Beings at the center of the cosmos, all of your Cultivators must’ve been overwhelmed and felt that it was the end of the world, right?

“At that time, the war between the Imperium and the Covenant Alliance was almost your only hope. Therefore, you came to the center of the cosmos, seeing if there was any way to strike a balance between the Imperium and the Covenant Alliance so that your tiny motherland could take advantage and rise, right?

“Don’t deny it just yet. It will be useless even if you do. Your credit has gone zero. I do not trust a single word that you say; I only believe in my own reasoning and deduction.

“Abandon your illusions. It is impossible for a tiny mouse to take advantage of the collision between the behemothic beasts.

“However, if you are merely hoping to survive, I may show mercy and spare you as an exception.

“There’s no need to doubt my sincerity. Before I learned how vast the grand universe was, I would never have let go of a single Cultivator. However, there is a greater world in front of me that is waiting for my conquest, and there are more brutal and mysterious enemies that must be slain. Then, it is necessary to concentrate all the precious strength of the civilization of mankind and to find as many helpers as possible, including the Cultivators that I absolutely dislike.

“If you know a thing or two about the secrets beyond our tiny universe, and I think you do, you definitely know what I mean.

“I don’t need to lie to you. Although I do not like Cultivators, I do appreciate you very much, Vulture Li Yao, because there is something in common between the two of us.”

Li Yao scorned, “There’s something in common between us?”

“Exactly. Despite our disagreement in our approaches, we are both the purest idealists. We have been striving for the prosperity of the civilization of mankind, and we are even willing to sacrifice our whole lives for our great civilization. It is exactly because I’m hoping to work and sacrifice for mankind for another ten thousand years that I’ve been seeking greater strength!”

Opening the broken arms, Wuying Qi said sincerely, “But what about the other people, all of them, apart from us? Just look at the ridiculous war in the Seven Seas s.p.a.ce Zone right now! While the troops of the four families and the warlords are selfish, unorganized, and utterly devoid of dignity and courage, aren’t the fleets of the Business Alliance of Ten Thousand Sectors shameless scoundrels who will defect for a few coins?

“My expedition is too distant and difficult. Am I going to command such a bunch of selfish, fake Immortal Cultivators to explore the universe beyond the universe?

“Hehe. Vulture Li Yao, I prefer to cooperate with a real Cultivator like you, which will probably be easier and more pleasant, than to work with those ‘fake Immortal Cultivators’ who disgust me by their sheer presence. After all, we are the same kind of people who share the same dream, which is to march out of this universe!”

“d.a.m.n you!”

New gooseb.u.mps were growing on the gooseb.u.mps on Li Yao’s body. “Who’s the same kind of people as you? I’m a man of principles and boundaries, not to mention that I’m also kindhearted and handsome!”

“Hehe, for the dream, any principles or boundaries can be abandoned! If you cling to the hilarious principles and boundaries without letting them go, the dream will be nothing but a joke!”

Wuying Qi suddenly changed his face and demanded, “If you do not dare to resort to whatever it takes and step on all the rules of mankind for your dream, it will only mean that you are not persistent about your dream or qualified to talk about your dream, especially one concerning the future of mankind!

“Vulture Li Yao, let me ask you one last time. Are you and the country of Cultivators behind you willing to stand on my side? We will fight together and unite this tiny universe first before we raise the bloodstained banner of the civilization of mankind on every Sector in every universe!

“Or are you really dogged enough to be crushed into pieces by my unstoppable wheels?”

BOOM!

The black flames of spiritual energy around Wuying Qi surged out. Even Wuying Qinxin’s skin and flesh were torn apart, melted like the coal in fire into the purest energy.

His vibe was so unprecedentedly dominating that his real self seemed to have been teleported to Li Yao’s front!

Li Yao could barely keep his eyes open under Wuying Qi’s blowing air.

“Wuying Qi, I—”

The moment Li Yao opened his mouth, it was filled with wind. His cheeks were puffing like two balloons, and countless blades seemed to be sc.r.a.ping his oral cavity. It took him a long time before he finally vomited the wind out. Gritting his teeth, he shouted solemnly, “Can-Can I consider it for a few days? It’s such an important matter. You have to let me consider for ten to fifteen days before I make a prudent decision, right? Even if I make a promise to you right now, you wouldn’t believe me at all, would you?”

“Hehe. Fair enough. Then, take your time to consider it. I’m looking forward to your answer.”

Wuying Qi said with a smile, “I believe that you will not disappoint me. I’ll be waiting for you at the capital!”

Hu!

Wuying Qinxin’s body finally couldn’t withstand Blackstar the Great’s remote control anymore and was burnt into black charcoal by the furious flames of spiritual energy.

“Huh?”

He did not expect that Wuying Qi would be so gullible. Could he have fooled the man with such an obvious pretense?

While he was surprised, he discovered that the fire did not burn up Wuying Qinxin’s entire body but kept her head that was like a living skeleton. The skull absorbed all the crazy waves and spiritual energy wandering in the air. In cracking noises, it grew larger and larger still, expanding to three times its original size, like a clear crystal ball.

The eyes that had been magnified exponentially and looked like abysses stared at Li Yao in a feigned smile.

“Not good!”

Li Yao’s pupils constricted violently. The bones all over his body were cracking, and every cl.u.s.ter of his nerves was shrieking.

There was no time. In the next second, Wuying Qinxin’s abnormally expanded head, mixed with the invincible might left by Blackstar the Great, exploded brutally!
