"We still have a skyship, which can also be commandeered." The man in the Silver Cloud Mecha seemed unwilling to be looked down upon, so he raised his voice a few notches.
Wu Hen inwardly complained, questioning why such an idiot had been sent for the task!
It was clear they wanted to commandeer human forces to tackle the True Soul of the Desolate God Ying Snake, the very serpent that had breathed a sea of mist in the central ocean.
Although the primary form of the Desolate God Ying Snake had been sealed within the Barbaric Mountain Range of the Earth Vein, this True Soul, having undergone the Golden Cicada Shell transformation, was not something humans could contend with. It was evident that Gu Yue intended to use the mightiest forces human ingenuity had painstakingly developed as cannon fodder!
"Little Sister, why doesn't the Master descend personally? Wouldn't that capture the target more swiftly?" Wu Hen could not help but inquire.
"I am not entirely sure, but I heard an elder from the clan mention that within Desert Dust, countless inner worlds exist. These inner worlds often have exceptionally strict different rules, laws so firm that even someone of the Master's caliber would find their cultivation suppressed below the Heavenly Light level if they were to enter such a realm," Qing Meng replied.
Hearing this, Wu Hen suddenly understood why the Purple Robed Master would rather employ divine skills like the Law of Heaven and Earth to intimidate humanity's homeland than descend personally...
Suddenly, Wu Hen realized the Desolate God Ying Snake's intention.
It was exploiting Nuwa God End's laws.
If the Purple Robed Master pursued, his cultivation would undoubtedly be suppressed; with everyone below the Heavenly Light level, the Desolate God Ying Snake still had a chance to turn the tables.
"It seems we are not affected," Wu Hen said.
"This is also my first time within an inner world; those below Heavenly Light should not be suppressed." Little Sister Qing Meng added. She lingered her gaze on Wu Hen for a moment before saying, "Wasn't the Master expecting you to lead? Why do you always hide behind Senior Brother Gu Yue?"
"Senior Brother merely incurred the Master's wrath momentarily. Surely, Little Sister understands my insignificance. Leadership naturally falls to the wise and valiant elder brother. However, I am always ready to follow your guidance," Wu Hen replied.
Little Sister Qing Meng's cheeks lifted into a smile. She extended her fingers and pinched Wu Hen's chin, saying, "You've improved quickly and become quite sharp."
"Thanks to Little Sister's care," Wu Hen said.
"If you dare dictate orders, with Senior Brother's personality, he will seize the chance to kill you while dealing with the Desolate God Ying Snake. Although it was the Master's command to strike, it was your hand that made the blow, and he resents you for it," Qing Meng said.
"Little Sister, I actually have a Yuan You here, which I acquired unexpectedly while seeking the path. Although I know it might not be worthy of your remarkable talent, please accept it as a token of my goodwill and continue to look after me," Wu Hen said.
Qing Meng's smile grew wider as she accepted the Yuan You from Wu Hen.
No one ever had too many of these things, let alone a high-quality Great Yuan You.
"Well said, well said. The Master's command was for us to lead; naturally, I will not let Senior Brother be overly harsh on you. Since you have a lower lineage, you should liaise with these lower beings to mobilize all their strength for our vanguard, thus reducing our casualties," Qing Meng advised.
"Understood, I will follow Little Sister's command," Wu Hen replied.
"Senior Brother, we are quite tired from this journey; why not rest in their Human City? They can devise a strategy to deal with the True Soul of Ying Snake, and we can depart without delay," Little Sister Qing Meng suggested.
Once she spoke, everyone unanimously agreed.
Having been recently reprimanded by the Master, Gu Yue was now their leader, while Wu Hen, though also appointed to lead, was entirely disregarded.
"Very well, let it be that city encased in a silver dome," Senior Brother Gu Yue said.
"It is an honor, please proceed," said the Silver Cloud Mecha.
Though an incredibly cool Emperor Mecha, adored by all little boys as Ultraman, the Silver Cloud Mecha now resembled a eunuch leading the way.
On second thought, the Master's mighty gesture had already crushed humanity's knee bones; even celestial visitors of mechanical civilizations, like the Silver Cloud Mecha, had to show subservience.
At the Silver Dome Headquarters, human leaders from various sectors were like ants on a hot pan, anxiously pacing in the conference tower of the skyscraper.
Upon receiving the Silver Cloud's message, these leaders heaved sighs of relief.
They were not here to declare war.
They were not here for annihilation.
They only came for the inadvertently intruding Ying Snake.
And as long as humanity was willing to assist them, they promised not to adopt any extermination measures.
This was a blessing within the curse.
By properly serving these cultivators, humanity could avert yet another disaster!
As the technology of the human homeland advanced rapidly, given more time, they might not only birth Heavenly Light individuals but also create weapons surpassing the Heavenly Light.
The longer Nuwa God End endured, the greater hope they had of rising in Desert Dust.
In short, by pouring human resources into serving these cultivator ancestors, they must not anger these heavenly envoys, and must never offend that Purple Robed Saint Immortal...
Arriving at the most luxurious Silver Dome Palace, these celestial visitors found the environment satisfactory.
Disliking numerous insect-like humans, everyone within several kilometers of the Silver Dome Palace had been evacuated, leaving only a few professional maidservants to serve them meticulously.
