The Earth Begins to Liven Up

Blazing Sun Civilization, New Blazing Sun Star.

Like Morgana, Pan Zhen and the elders of the Lieyang Star, who had been watching the ranking video inside the Council Hall, were all utterly incredulous.

As a top-tier civilization, they knew full well just how formidable Dark Alloy and Dark Element Silver truly were!

It wasn't just Morgana who coveted them; the Lieyang Star was equally envious!

After all, the Lieyang Star was also impoverished!

Having once guarded that broken and dilapidated planet, how could the Lieyang Star possibly have abundant resources?

Even the recently expanded legion had relied mostly on resources sent from the Styx! If they had to depend solely on the Lieyang Star's own resources, expanding the legion would be nothing short of a pipe dream!

If Morgana's Demon Civilization was the poorest top-tier civilization in the entire Known Universe, then the Lieyang Star was only slightly better off than Morgana's Demon Civilization!

It ranked as the second poorest top-tier civilization in the entire Known Universe!

For this very reason, Pan Zhen and the elders of the Lieyang Star were burning with envy!

After a brief moment of silence, the First Elder, seated at the center of the round table, spoke up first: "The Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization's strength cannot be underestimated. I believe the Lieyang Star should seriously consider Death God Karl's plan!"

"With our current strength, we simply cannot afford to provoke the entire Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization!"

As the First Elder's voice echoed through the Council Hall, the Fifth Elder, seated at the far right of the round table, held a different view.

He rose from his seat and addressed everyone present: "I disagree with the First Elder. While the Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization is undoubtedly powerful, the Lieyang Star's strength should not be underestimated either!"

"Moreover, Death God Karl's plan involves not just our Lieyang Civilization, but other civilizations as well!"

"I refuse to believe that the Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization is so formidable that it can withstand a siege from several top-tier civilizations and still remain undefeated!"

"The Heavenly Soldier Legion of the Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization does possess powerful equipment, but they are merely Third-generation Super Soldiers! Their mastery of Dark Energy and the Dark Plane may not be particularly impressive!"

After the Fifth Elder voiced his opinion, another elder stood up and began to share his own views, but his words were laced with mockery!

Clearly, this elder strongly disagreed with the Fifth Elder's stance.

Thus, the elders in the Council Hall split into two factions, glaring at each other and arguing heatedly.

"Enough!" Listening to the clamor around him, Pan Zhen slammed the round table and stood up, speaking angrily: "Look at yourselves! How are you any different from the vegetable vendors in Cloudreach City?"

"Bickering like this—what kind of decorum is that?"

With Pan Zhen's outburst, the arguing elders immediately fell silent, sulking as they returned to their seats.

There was no help for it; facing Pan Zhen, they had no power to resist.

To put it bluntly, if Pan Zhen truly lost his temper, even if he killed them all right here, not a single person would utter a word of dissent.

Watching the Council Hall fall silent again and the elders retreat, Pan Zhen snorted coldly and addressed them: "Set aside the matter of the Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization for now. Death God Karl hasn't received any news about them yet anyway."

"We'll discuss it when we have information!"

With that, Pan Zhen clasped his hands behind his back, looked toward the door of the Council Hall, and narrowed his eyes: "What we need to consider now is how to deal with Morgana on Earth!"

"According to the intelligence I've gathered, Morgana has already established a foothold on Earth."

"So, since we plan to go to Earth and wage war against her, we must be fully prepared!"

"After all, unlike her, we can't move our headquarters to Earth. We'll have to choose a location on Earth as a command post and continuously transport supplies."

Hearing this, the First Elder, who had just sat down, frowned and asked Pan Zhen: "Isn't Goddess Lena on Earth now? Why don't we set up our command post right at her location?"

At the First Elder's question, Pan Zhen glanced at him and replied: "Goddess Lena's location is the Super Seminary's location!"

"Are you suggesting we pick a fight with the Super Seminary before we even start the war with Morgana?"

"Besides, the country where the Super Seminary is located is quite complicated. Aside from the Deno Galaxy's people, there seem to be Angels present as well!"

"And don't forget, that monkey on Earth isn't dead yet!"

As Pan Zhen's answer sank in, the elders of the Lieyang Star nodded in agreement.

If what Pan Zhen said was true, then they would indeed need to choose a reliable location on Earth as the Lieyang Civilization's temporary command post.

Seeing that the elders understood his point, Pan Zhen continued: "I've already dispatched Xuan Tianji with a thousand Imperial Guards to Earth. Once they arrive, Xuan Tianji will report to us under Mao Shen's guidance!"

"A thousand Imperial Guards?" The Fifth Elder frowned: "Isn't that a bit excessive?"

"The Imperial Guards are the elite of the Lieyang Civilization! Is Xuan Tianji qualified to command them?"

Pan Zhen waved his hand and said to the Fifth Elder: "These thousand Imperial Guards aren't meant to serve as Xuan Tianji's underlings!"

"I'm sending them out for two reasons: one, to secretly protect Goddess Lena, and two, to scout out the Demon Civilization's situation for us!"

"After all, if we're about to start a war, the Lieyang Star can't go in blind, completely unaware of the Demon Civilization's deployments!"

"And with a thousand Imperial Guards on hand, even if Holy Keisha enters Earth before us, we can ensure our temporary command post isn't seized by the Angels."

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Su Mu, seated on the Throne and watching the ranking video, suddenly received a communication request from Yang Jian.

"Heavenly Venerate, we have arrived at Earth Star in the Chi Wu Star System. We have not been detected by any other forces for now."

Hearing Yang Jian's voice, Su Mu was not surprised.

After all, the small warship Yang Jian and his team were riding was the fastest in the entire Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization, made entirely of Dark Alloy. It was only natural that the forces on Earth couldn't detect them.

"I understand." Su Mu tapped the armrest of the Throne: "Stand by on Earth for now. The Giant Spirit God Squad was dispatched to Earth a few days ago with resources and construction acceleration cards."

"Once the Giant Spirit God Squad is in position, you may begin your official operations."
