Chapter 1606: Chapter 938: Lu Xingnan and the Divine Being
“Miss Witch, the Divine Being is the sun hanging high in the sky, not to be directly viewed. How could he easily meet you?”
“If you have any matters, you can talk to me. I am the messenger of the Divine Being, the most loyal subject of God, Lu Xingnan.”
On the sacred island of the Divine Country, Molly looked up at the man in a white robe in front of her, her brows tightly knitted.
The other spoke eloquently, with a smile, but she had come to the Divine Country on Mr. Liang’s order for a day and hadn’t even seen the ‘God’ yet.
The reason given by the other was laughable, claiming the Divine Being is too elevated for just anyone to meet.
It left Witch Molly speechless.
Her eyelids slightly trembled as she said flatly, “We at Carey Technology come with sincerity, Mr. Lu, you should be aware of the Jingzhou Military’s purpose.”
“Their people are contacting us, attempting to ally with us to encircle and kill the Divine Country from both the north and south.”
“In such a significant matter, is your ‘God’ unwilling to personally come out and talk to me?”
“Isn’t he afraid we might join forces with the Jingzhou Military?”
Lu Xingnan smiled and said, “Miss Witch, please be calm. Must Lord God come in person for the talks? Isn’t it the same if you discuss it with me?”
Molly frowned, “Can you make decisions?”
Lu Xingnan nodded and smiled, “I do have some say in military matters.”
“Great! Then, given that, may I ask, what is the Divine Country’s current stance?”
Lu Xingnan said, “We are certainly willing to ally with your company. The Jingzhou Military’s wolfish ambitions are clear to all.”
“They attacked our Divine Country, attempting to occupy us. Once they complete this invasion, they will certainly move south, and Carey Technology will be the first to bear the brunt.”
“So we indeed have a natural basis for alliance, don’t we?”
Lu Xingnan said with a smile, making it seem like cooperation between the Divine Country and Carey Technology was mutually beneficial.
However, Molly’s negotiation was not for listening to this.
She was here to receive benefits!
Otherwise, why should she ally with the Divine Country?
Molly calmly asked, “Mr. Lu, any cooperation Carey Technology enters into is mutually beneficial, but since we’re discussing an alliance, shouldn’t there be some sincerity on your part?”
Lu Xingnan suddenly laughed loudly, “Miss Molly, did you speak backwards? Shouldn’t Carey Technology present sincerity, given that you were the ones who sought us out for alliance, not the other way around?”
Molly’s expression immediately turned unpleasant. She glared at Lu Xingnan, coldly saying, “It seems my initiative has made Mr. Lu misunderstand.”
“In that case, forget it. Carey Technology can directly cooperate with the Jingzhou Military, but at that time, Mr. Lu shouldn’t regret it.”
With that, Molly rose and left without a backward glance.
Lu Xingnan’s smile remained unchanged as he watched her leave.
After a moment, until Molly truly left the main hall and even transformed into a tunneling light, disappearing above the Floating Island, Lu Xingnan’s smile gradually faded, his brows furrowing.
“Did she really leave?”
Lu Xingnan became somewhat doubtful of his judgment.
He maintained his attitude because he suspected Carey Technology rushed to seek an alliance with the Divine Country due to threats from the Jingzhou Military District.
Lu Xingnan never believed Carey Technology held any true power; in front of Lord God, even Carey Technology’s leader James was nothing.
The entirety of Carey Technology was just a small force headquartered in Yu Province.
The Jingzhou Military District only needed to apply slight pressure, and they would frighten Carey Technology into hurriedly seeking alliance with them.
He naturally wanted to take this opportunity to handle things carefully.
Originally, he had planned that once he had a handle on Miss Witch, he would demand Carey Technology to give up at least three Floating Islands before he would represent the Divine Country in alliance with them.
But unexpectedly, before he could propose the conditions, Miss Witch had already hardened her face.
Earlier, he thought she was testing him, so he deliberately did not speak to retain her.
However, in this brief moment, the other had no intention of lingering and left the Divine Island outright, catching him off guard.
He pondered briefly, then quickly signaled to a nearby guard in a white robe.
“Chen Qiang.”
“Yes, Master?” The white-robed guard promptly approached respectfully.
Lu Xingnan said softly, “Immediately follow her to see if she has truly left the Divine Country’s borders.”
“Yes, Master.” Chen Qiang promptly stood up to pursue Molly.
“Wait!”
At this moment, Lu Xingnan suddenly called him back.
Chen Qiang quickly turned to look at Lu Xingnan.
Lu Xingnan pondered for a moment, then said, “Also, dispatch a team to gather information near Carey Technology, focusing on whether they’ve engaged with the Jingzhou Military.”
“Yes, Master.” Chen Qiang swiftly left the main hall.
Lu Xingnan watched Chen Qiang’s departing silhouette, contemplated for a while, then turned and proceeded deeper into the palace.
The palace was entirely constructed of stone, showing no signs of stacking, presumably crafted by an Earth Attribute Superpower User through superpowers.
Lu Xingnan seemed highly familiar with the place, progressing forward swiftly until he arrived at a great hall.
There, he saw a figure seated cross-legged on the high platform.
Around the high platform, maidens waited, with curtains drawn, concealing his form, vaguely revealing a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was surrounded by an aura, appearing almost like a genuine Immortal.
Upon seeing the man on the platform, Lu Xingnan’s eyes revealed a hint of reverence and enthusiasm.
“Lord God, the people from Carey Technology have left.”
A faint voice came from above the platform: “Left? Did she agree to our terms?”
“No, not only did she not agree to our terms, she even wanted to negotiate her own terms with us. I refused, and she angrily left.”
“Hmm? Left?” The man on the platform seemed surprised, asking, “Are you certain she’s truly left, or is she just pretending?”
“Not entirely sure, but I’ve already sent Chen Qiang to follow her. It’s likely she’s posturing.”
Lu Xingnan analyzed, “Given that the Jingzhou Military District went to Carey Technology, and yet she came to us for an alliance, it’s probably because the Jingzhou Military didn’t show them a friendly face.”
“Judging by the Jingzhou Military’s attitude toward civilian shelters, they either forcibly requisition or directly destroy them, so it’s unlikely they would genuinely cooperate with Carey Technology.”
The man on the platform, upon hearing this, said, “Hmm, follow her and see where she goes. Also, send people to Carey Technology to examine the Jingzhou Military’s attitude toward Carey Technology.”
Lu Xingnan responded, “I’ve already sent people there.”
“Well done, haha, I thought the Jingzhou Military hadn’t paid any price.”
“They are always arrogant and view external forces outside Jingzhou as country bumpkins. This time, Hong Tianyi engaging with me likely resulted in him being injured; otherwise, they wouldn’t seek cooperation with Carey Technology to deal with us.”
Hearing this, Lu Xingnan’s eyes also brightened, asking, “In that case, should we cease advancing south?”
The ‘God’ on the platform shook his head slightly, “No change in plan, continue southward, strategic retreat.”
“Our personnel is still too few. The military doesn’t only have Hong Tianyi; they have many experts.”
“Currently, we need to quickly consolidate southern forces, strengthen the Divine Country, in order to contend with the Jingzhou Military.”
Lu Xingnan heard this and hesitated momentarily, asking, “Then regarding Carey Technology, should we collaborate with them?”
The ‘God’ slightly shook his head, “Not collaboration, I mean assimilation and conquest.”
“What I need is not a southern alliance, but a Divine Country occupying the southern Flood World.”
“Only with unified faith can we truly utilize the power of the masses.”
“Haha, look at the military, they have tens of thousands of people, yet internal factional conflicts are incessant. Even that Hong Tianyi cannot prevent such situations.”
“Although they seem immensely powerful now, that’s because there’s an enemy like me outside, forcing them to unite.”
“If I weren’t here, without external threats, they would become scattered in no time.”
Lu Xingnan agreed repeatedly, saying, “Lord God analyzed rightly; nationals excel in internal struggles. Jingzhou was already the political and cultural center, known for traditional internal conflicts, even before the apocalypse.”
The ‘God’ chuckled and said, “Alright, go down. Also, make contact with the Sprout people and find Jin Shirong; I need to talk to him.”
Lu Xingnan quickly nodded, “Yes, Lord God.”
