At this moment, Li Tianming said meaningfully, "Perhaps some unseen black hand has been constantly pushing news right before my eyes. Even if I do not wish to know, someone will make sure that I do. But none of that matters now. In any case, I sincerely ask you to help me apply for the declaration of war for the Divine Treasury Star System."
"I truly did not expect your information to be a step ahead of even mine. I only just received the news that the Young Imperial Sovereign had withdrawn his troops and abandoned the Divine Treasury Star System, and I was still nursing a headache over it." Nine Phoenix rubbed her temples, then said in surprise, "And I never imagined that you would actually decide to take it over."
"A decision made after long hesitation is not necessarily the right one. Though I did not have much time to think, I have already considered it clearly." Li Tianming smiled.
"I thought anyone might choose to take it over, but you would be the least likely person to do so. Yet I never expected you would be the first to come find me. It truly surprises me." Nine Phoenix said in astonishment.
"Sometimes, surprises and unexpected turns simply descend like this. No one can see through them." Li Tianming smiled.
"You suddenly popped up right in front of me—this is purely a fright!" Nine Phoenix shot Li Tianming a glare, then asked again, "Have you truly made up your mind?"
"I have." Li Tianming nodded.
"You will not reconsider?" Nine Phoenix raised a brow.
"I will not. The longer the Divine Treasury Star System is left unattended, the more likely complications will breed in the night. So I must take it over." Li Tianming's gaze burned brightly.
