Chapter 1669: Chapter 1669: Fighting Sky Strikes
As he spoke, Lan Xuanyu stepped out from the podium and bowed deeply in the direction of Gu Yuena.
His words left the assembled members somewhat startled. This... Silver Dragon Princess Gu Yuena, a legendary figure, was actually able to barely contend with the half-step God King level Mother of Deep Red? No wonder, no wonder the Spirit Pagoda would pass on the leadership position to her. It turns out she is such a powerful entity?
In fact, Yuanen Huiguang also wore a bewildered expression. He did not know this situation, and it was only when Lan Xuanyu mentioned it that he realized Gu Yuena was already strong enough to be close to the half-step God King level. For a moment, Yuanen Huiguang could not help but feel flushed, deeply grateful for the decisions he had made.
Gu Yuena stood up and nodded slightly to Lan Xuanyu with a gentle smile.
Earlier, even the Speaker could not make her stand.
The mother and son exchanged a smile before Lan Xuanyu returned to the podium.
"We have always known that for the Douluo Federation, the scarcest resources are various rare metals. So, to express our gratitude and sincerity this time, we have specially brought various rare metals. I will hand over the list to the Speaker shortly. Thank you once again for your assistance." He did not mention the support fleet reducing from three to one, as that was not something he should address.
"Next, I want to talk about the dangers posed by the Deep Red Realm. Perhaps many might think that the targets of the Deep Red Realm are our Dragon Horse star system and have nothing to do with the Douluo Federation. Yes, in terms of life energy level and intensity, Sky Dragon and Sky Horse planets, frankly speaking, surpass Douluo Planet significantly. However, please note that in one aspect, our twin stars of the Dragon Horse cannot compare to Douluo Planet. That is divinity."
"Why was Douluo Planet able to attract the arrival of the abyssal plane in the first place? It was because there is divinity here. The form here does not possess the traits of the God Rank but of a Divine Realm. After all, Douluo Planet was once the birthplace of a Divine Realm. I am unclear on how the previous Divine Realm formed. However, I can firmly state that Douluo Planet retains the aura of a God King, and this presents an unparalleled and colossal attraction for the evolution of a plane. This attraction is enough for them to do anything. Therefore, if the Mother of Deep Red really achieves God King status and establishes a Divine Realm based on the Deep Red Realm, then her next target for devourment would definitely be Douluo Planet. She would use Douluo Planet’s Divine Realm characteristics to formulate her own Divine Realm rules. You may think I’m being alarmist, but first, it’s better to believe than not; and second, if such a situation does arise, then I’m afraid the entire Douluo Federation will have no power to stop it. A true Divine Realm is not something scientific methods can resist."
At this point, Lan Xuanyu paused, and within the council hall, it had become completely quiet without even a murmur of discussion. Everyone was intently listening to his narrative, contemplating the various possibilities in their minds.
"Therefore, in any case, we cannot allow the Deep Red Realm to achieve a Divine Realm, nor can we allow the Mother of Deep Red to become an invincible God King level existence. For this reason, we have come to Douluo Planet with great sincerity, hoping that in the face of a common great enemy, we can set aside our prejudices against each other, and that the Douluo Federation can support us as before. Let us join forces to combat the Deep Red Realm and ultimately obliterate the Mother of Deep Red, resolving this disaster that could possibly lead to the extinction of our races."
"If we can resolve the Deep Red Realm, our Dragon Horse Federation is willing to offer five Resource Planets as gratitude. These are the five Resource Planets closest to the Douluo Federation, which you most hope to obtain. Simultaneously, we can guarantee that in the next hundred years, the Dragon Horse Federation will not commit any act of aggression against the Douluo Federation. For this, we can sign an oath. We come with full sincerity not only for ourselves but also for the peaceful development of this star field. There’s still a large universe beyond us. I believe that for the Douluo Federation and our Dragon Horse Federation to become friendly nations is far better than internecine conflict. For both sides, the emergence of the Deep Red Realm is a tremendous crisis, but it’s also a great opportunity. Let us put aside prejudice and seize the opportunity to become friendly neighboring nations. Thank you very much."
After speaking, he stepped out from behind the podium, bowing slightly first to the direction of the Speaker, and then to the members of the council. His etiquette was impeccable, and he used human etiquette throughout.
Even the Speaker, seated in the main seat, felt a faint bewilderment, as if he was not looking at a member of the Dragon Clan but rather a human maiden. He had to admit that Lan Xuanyu’s speech had indeed moved even him, clearly articulating the current dangers posed by the Deep Red Realm and all the possibilities concerning a Divine Realm.
It was at this moment that a somewhat deep and husky voice suddenly sounded beside the Speaker, "Your Excellency Lan, I have a question for you."
Lan Xuanyu was about to return to his seat but paused upon hearing the voice, gazing in the direction it came from. To his surprise, the speaker was none other than the extremely old Minister of Fighting Sky Department.
At this moment, the Minister had his head raised, and as the Deputy Speaker, his murky eyes were fixed on Lan Xuanyu. Strangely, upon meeting his gaze, Lan Xuanyu felt a slight discomfort, causing his brows to furrow slightly.
"Please, go ahead." Lan Xuanyu said calmly.
The Minister of Fighting Sky Department asked, "I would like to know, how far are your noble Dragon Knights from reaching God King level? Is there a possibility of Sky Dragon Planet and Sky Horse Planet giving birth to a Divine Realm?"
This question caused Lan Xuanyu’s eyebrows to subtly lift. What a cunning question! Could the Minister of Fighting Sky Department be in allegiance with the Speaker?
The question essentially puts Lan Xuanyu in a tough spot. The implication is, given the benefits of a Divine Realm—dominion over a star field—what if we help you resolve the Deep Red Realm, and then your Dragon Horse twin stars give rise to a Divine Realm? If the Dragon Horse Federation produces a Divine Realm, wouldn’t that be a disaster for our Douluo Federation? In that case, any oath would be meaningless, right?
Most of those who become council members are highly astute individuals. As soon as the Minister asked this question, many immediately grasped his implication.
Lan Xuanyu’s eyes narrowed slightly, "I can provide you with a definitive answer. No. It is impossible for the Dragon Horse twin stars to give birth to a Divine Realm. If there were such a possibility, it would not have waited until now."
But the Minister of Fighting Sky Department was unwavering, "Then what if the energy of the Dark Red Plane is absorbed? At that time, our Douluo Planet also experienced an evolution after absorbing the abyssal plane. Yet at your Dragon Horse twin stars’ current level, if another evolution occurs, wouldn’t it likely lead to the level of a Divine Realm? That possibility indeed exists."
How formidable! This question left Lan Xuanyu feeling almost at a loss for words. But his heart remained calm, not panicking. He merely smiled faintly and said, "If the Douluo Federation is willing to send reinforcements, then when we defeat the Deep Red Realm, everyone will witness everything together. At that time, if we wish to absorb the energy of the Deep Red Realm, the Douluo Federation’s Cosmic Fleet certainly would have the capability to prevent us. I will not deny that such a possibility exists because I am not the ruler of the Dragon Horse Federation. However, whether the energy of the Deep Red Realm can be absorbed after its destruction is uncertain."
