Chu Longye's gaze was sharp, like lightning, piercing Ning Chuan's eyes. He said, "Just a Divine Slave? Don't try to show off in front of me. You can't possibly command a Demigod. Do you think I'm afraid of your wrath?"
"Sixth Brother!"
Mo Lan frowned slightly and secretly sent a reminder.
Upon hearing this, Chu Longye seemed to realize something, suppressed his anger, and said in a low voice, "Who knew that Li Wenyue was an undercover agent of the Myriad Stars Divine Kingdom!"
Moreover, Li Wenyue's death was not intentionally caused by Horse Road Mountain!
The Divine Oracle Talisman and the Soul-Controlling Seed were vying for control; his soul wasn't strong enough to withstand it, so who could he blame?
Chu Longye patiently explained.
Mo Lan nodded slightly, echoing, "This was just an accident. Before I condensed the Soul-Controlling Seed, I didn't know Li Wenyue was a member of the Divine Kingdom's Military Department."
Seeing this, Ning Chuan was taken aback by the two people's attitude.
It seems a bit too weak!
They actually explained the reason to him!
It should be understood that beings integrated into Divine Oracle Talisman hold a status as low as dust in the Divine Kingdom.
This can be seen from how the two addressed each other before.
Divine Slave!
It's easy to imagine how lowly they were.
Although they belong to the official government of the Divine Kingdom, they are, in a sense, public officials.
However, Chu Longye and Mo Lan are experts at the Nebula Realm!
In the context of Martial Star, this would be equivalent to a Divine General in the Federation. Because he failed to identify the individual, he mistakenly killed an Awakening Stage alien.
The latter happened to be a spy planted by the Federation military.
This must have caused trouble.
But for that Divine General, it was by no means a big deal.
There was no malicious intent involved.
Just as Mo Lan said, it was just an accident.
The correct approach is to contact high-ranking officials in the Federation military directly.
Why waste time arguing with that spy's junior superior?
"Could it be that the importance of Divine Slave is greater than I anticipated?"
"Or is it that Horse Road Mountain can't contact the high-ranking figures of the Divine Kingdom? That can't be right, considering he clearly has seven Nebula Realm experts!"
"There are probably things I'm unaware of..."
With his mind in turmoil and various possibilities surfacing, Ning Chuan couldn't figure it out for a while.
However, Ning Chuan understood one thing.
His current situation is far better than that of Chu Longye and Mo Lan.
Ning Chuan's eyes turned cold, and he said angrily, "No matter how eloquent you are, you cannot change the established facts!"
"A powerful River Realm spy died because of Horse Road Mountain!"
"My identity has been exposed as a result, and Nanshan Gong and Liu Cangdong have learned of it. There is a danger that it will be revealed!"
Ning Chuan, his black robes billowing wildly even without wind, stared intently at the two men and demanded sharply, "According to the laws of the Divine Kingdom, what is the punishment for this behavior!"
With his voice, the surrounding void trembled, as if it were about to collapse!
Reprimanded by a Divine Slave, Chu Longye couldn't suppress his anger. A cold smile appeared on his lips as he sarcastically remarked, "What crime? Killing a Divine Slave from the River Realm only costs you a few million Star Yuan. Do you really think you Divine Slave are highly valued by the Myriad Stars Divine Kingdom..."
"Sixth Brother, the bigger picture is what matters!"
Mo Lan secretly used telepathy to stop her.
Chu Longye gritted his teeth and didn't say anything more.
Ning Chuan felt somewhat helpless.
He truly didn't know what crime it was to kill Divine Slave.
You're describing the general situation!
After thinking for a moment, Ning Chuan sternly retorted, "This is the Heavenly Martial Realm, just like Martial Star, possessing a powerful defense mechanism. Do you know how many Divine Oracle Talisman I used to subdue Li Wenyue!"
"You're the one who subdued Li Wenyue?!"
Upon hearing Ning Chuan's words, Chu Longye and Mo Lan were both startled. They exchanged glances, and could see the unexpected joy in each other's eyes.
Because Li Wenyue's strength was River Realm, the success rate of integrating the Divine Oracle Talisman was too low. They subconsciously believed that the person who subdued Li Wenyue was Demigod of the Myriad Stars Divine Kingdom, or even True God!
Unexpectedly, the black-robed Divine Slave before him had subdued it himself.
That would make the process much simpler.
Divine Slave who are integrated into the Divine Oracle Talisman are allowed to have their own thoughts and actions, as long as they do not harm the interests of the Divine Kingdom.
"You're the one who subdued Li Wenyue?"
Mo Lan couldn't help but confirm again.
Ning Chuan sized her up, gave her a cold look, and scolded, "If it wasn't me, then who else could it be!"
Mo Lan didn't mind, smiled faintly, and said, "Since he wasn't subdued by a powerful figure from the Divine Kingdom, Li Wenyue is just one of your subordinates, far less important to the Divine Kingdom than you are."
"If I'm not mistaken, Li Wenyue doesn't know how to contact the Divine Kingdom!"
"Even the Divine Kingdom's Military Department might not know that you've developed a subordinate like Li Wenyue!"
Mo Lan said firmly.
Ning Chuan seemed lost in thought, but a cold glint appeared in his eyes as he asked in a sinister voice, "What do you mean?"
At this moment, Chu Longye took over, spreading his hands and getting straight to the point. " Horse Road Mountain can compensate for your losses in this accident without affecting the interests of the Divine Kingdom in the Heavenly Martial Realm. Li Wenyue is ultimately just a River Realm cultivator, and his importance will decrease as the Era of Recovery approaches."
Ning Chuan remained silent and did not respond, his eyes flickering intensely, as if he were caught in a dilemma and struggle.
Seeing this, Mo Lan smiled faintly and said, "As for the issue of identity, you don't need to worry. Horse Road Mountain will definitely guard against it strictly and won't cause trouble for himself."
"I will also issue a ban on those two people who know the truth!"
Mo Lan raised her jade-like hand, pointed at Nanshan Gong and Liu Cangdong, and said coldly, "If you're not stupid, you should know how to keep secrets!"
The era of Martial Star's revival is a golden age.
However, whether they are native humans of Martial Star or humans of the Heavenly Martial Realm, they can only be relegated to supporting roles.
Because they simply don't have the strength to compete with the geniuses of the Divine Kingdom!
Do you understand what I mean?
Mo Lan made no attempt to hide her threat, pointing out the immense power of the geniuses from the Divine Kingdom, who could easily kill the two of them.
A look of fear flashed across Nanshan Gong's face. He quickly bowed respectfully and said, "Please rest assured, Your Excellency, when I decided to cooperate with Horse Road Mountain, I had already parted ways with Gu Yunyou and the Holy Heaven Alliance. I will not leak this information!"
Liu Cangdong cautiously inquired, "Does Horse Road Mountain still stand by his promise to me and Sect Master Nan Spirit of Law Comprehension?"
"Calculate!"
Mo Lan responded loudly, turning her head slightly to look at Ning Chuan in the black robe, and smiled, " The Spirit of Law Comprehension the Supreme Yin Law and the Ultimate Yang Law you requested will also be delivered by Horse Road Mountain on time, as compensation for the accidental killing of Li Wenyue."
Upon hearing this, Ning Chuan's heart skipped a beat; he hadn't expected it to be so easy.
However, he did not immediately agree.
The current negotiations are similar to shopping in a mall.
Horse Road Mountain represents the customers.
He is a merchant.
When a customer makes a price offer and the seller readily agrees, the deal often falls through, leaving the customer feeling cheated.
Moreover, this is precisely the perfect time to sell at a high price.
Do you think I'm stupid?!
Ning Chuan scoffed, then said angrily, "Those two Spirit of Law Comprehension were rightfully mine. I helped you kill several Great River Realm Heavenly King from the Holy Heaven Alliance and even introduced two of them. These are all tangible benefits to Horse Road Mountain!"
Chu Longye shook his head and said, "But you're not the kind of cultivator Horse Road Mountain can support. The price he offered before included a training bonus."
"Of course it is!"
Ning Chuan asserted, questioning, "Isn't Horse Road Mountain supporting the local Heavenly King of the Heavenly Martial Realm just to do things for you? What haven't I done well!"
Or perhaps...
Ning Chuan glanced at the two people outside the light barrier, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and said, " Horse Road Mountain, if you ever do anything to damage the glory of the Divine Kingdom!"
Chu Longye paused for a moment upon hearing this, then immediately denied it, shaking his head and saying, "Of course not!"
Horse Road Mountain is an interstellar legion that has cooperated with the government of the Myriad Stars Divine Kingdom on numerous occasions, and the two sides have a good relationship.
I don't think you're suitable for support, but I'm worried that what Horse Road Mountain asked you to do might conflict with the mission of the Divine Kingdom in terms of timing.
Upon hearing this, Mo Lan nodded, subtly changing the subject, and said, "Indeed, as you say, Horse Road Mountain has benefited from you, and your promise of the Spirit of Law Comprehension is understandable."
Ning Chuan snorted coldly and said, "That's more like it!"
Mo Lan's smile faded, and she said, " Horse Road Mountain is willing to offer additional compensation. What do you want?"
