That stupid woman!
High above, Luo Han sensed what Elles had said and couldn't help cursing under his breath.
Did she really think the World Government was afraid of me?
Did she really think they could stand on equal footing with the World Government now?
This was all nothing more than mutual compromise.
The moment either side crossed the other's bottom line, it would become a war to the death.
Just as Imu had said, no matter who it was—even a Celestial Dragon—anyone who courted death within Eternal City's borders would receive no protection.
Because that was Eternal City's bottom line, the foundation upon which it stood in this world.
If they had to watch the World Government's or anyone else's expression even on their own territory, could Eternal City still call itself a neutral zone?
How could it maintain its transcendent status in the New World, or even across the entire world?
That was the bottom line!
An untouchable bottom line!
Likewise!
The World Government's concern over Roger's bloodline this time was one of their bottom lines.
If Luo Han truly dared to interfere, Imu definitely would not continue compromising just because Elles and the Fish-Man Princess were hostile toward each other.
That would no longer be compromise—it would be weakness!
So, if Luo Han openly brought Roger's wife and children into Eternal City, the World Government would certainly launch another war to the death.
By then!
It would no longer be possible to end things like last time!
Roger understood that as well.
He had seen the unspoken understanding between Eternal City and the World Government.
He knew that once this understanding was broken, the consequences would be impossible to predict.
That was why he had never intended for Luo Han to raise his child from the start.
