Eradication, Return to Nothing

While Chen Fan rapidly deployed Level-10 City Walls along the northern coast of Feng Qiya Continent.

Above the coast in the middle of Feng Qiya Continent's western region.

Several continent lords were chatting idly.

"You've dealt with the Mortal Domain more than we have on Dark Eerie Continent. Do you think they'll fight this time?"

The lord of Sahara Continent looked toward the king of the Rat Kingdom.

"Hard to say."

The king of the Rat Kingdom frowned. He couldn't quite understand Chen Fan either. Normally, if Chen Fan truly wanted peace talks, he wouldn't demand such an exorbitant war indemnity. Even allowing plenty of room to bargain, he wouldn't start that high.

No continent could afford that much in war reparations.

Even though the demand had already fallen to 130 billion Eerie Stones.

Feng Qiya Continent still couldn't afford it.

But if Chen Fan truly meant to go to war, the Mortal Domain might currently hold the upper hand, but that was mainly because of a Sky-Piercing Pillar that could strike across the sea from a great distance. Its power was immense, yet its blast radius wasn't particularly large.

Flattening Feng Qiya Continent with Sky-Piercing Pillars would require an astronomical number of them. The Mortal Domain couldn't possibly afford it.
