Chapter 399: Chapter 398: Outrageous Behavior
Communication link established.
Shui Yao, dressed in pajamas, was sitting at the head of her bed, yawning.
“You little stinker, why aren’t you asleep at this hour, bugging !?” Shui Yao drawled lazily.
Wang Hao rolled his eyes, “I an, sister, it’s dayti over here, okay? And with your high cultivation, do you even need sleep!?”
Shui Yao gave Wang Hao a flirtatious look, “You scamp, don’t you know a woman needs her beauty sleep? What’s that got to do with how high my cultivation is?”
Wang Hao was instantly left speechless by the retort; this woman was indeed troubleso.
“Ahem…” Wang Hao coughed to ease the awkwardness and said, “I wanted to ask, to what extent do we have to delay the Alien Race before we can obtain ten Space Gems?”
Shui Yao’s expression cooled, “Of course, it’s to make these alien scum stop killing, stop capturing humans to enslave. If possible, wipe out their ancestors eighteen generations back.”
“Killing, enslaving!?” Wang Hao was stunned for a mont before turning to look at Qian Wanyang and Chen Yao.
Qian Wanyang hurriedly said, “Boss, according to the latest intelligence, after an army of two billion from the Alien Race gathered, they went on a rampage on eighteen star systems, committing all kinds of atrocities. 240 billion civilians were killed, and 50 billion were taken away as slaves.”
“Holy shit, are these civilians pigs? No, wait, even pigs know how to resist.” Wang Hao was shocked, standing still. How could such a vastly outnumbered population of humans be slaughtered like this? This was beyond anyone’s imagination.
Qian Wanyang gave a bitter smile, “Boss, the commoners aren’t Martial Artists; they practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies and live longer, and their cultivation is generally not high, so they practically have no combat power.”
“I think it’s not that they lack combat power, but that they lack backbone.” Wang Hao curled his lip, feeling very contemptuous of these civilians.
You have to understand, we’re talking about nearly 300 billion civilians here. If they were to fight fearlessly to the death, even if the Alien Race had a two billion-strong army and inherently superior Basic Attributes compared to the Human Race, they could have fought them off until it terrified the Alien Race.
But these civilians hadn’t done that. Instead, they laid down their weapons and surrendered, thinking the Alien Race would spare them, only to be slaughtered rcilessly.
This also reminded him of the war when Japan invaded China; even though the Japanese were well-ard, they were few in number but still managed to rampage on Chinese soil for 14 long years.
If we say that the Japanese were strong, the results actually told everyone that as long as there is backbone and dignity, even if your weapons are outdated and the enemy is powerful, you can still win.
So, having no combat power is rely an excuse; the real issue is the lack of backbone.
“Sigh!” Shui Yao let out a sigh, “Wang Hao, you’re absolutely right. Commoners using a lack of combat power as an excuse is just that, an excuse. What they lack is backbone. But we can’t understand why they would be so spineless.”
Wang Hao grimaced, “Isn’t this all just the favorite trick of those noble lords!?”
“It has to do with the nobility!?” Shui Yao looked puzzled.
“Of course, it does!” Wang Hao nodded, “If these commoners aren’t duped into compliance, how can the nobles comfortably rule over them?”
“This…” Shui Yao’s fine brows knitted together, finding Wang Hao’s words quite reasonable.
The number of commoners dwarfed that of the nobles by countless trillions. If the commoners caused trouble every three days, even if the nobles were formidable, they would et their doom soday.
Therefore, the nobles chose to deceive the commoners from a young age, instilling in them detrintal values, deeply ingrained, eventually leading to the creation of these spineless, yet obedient commoners.
“Alright, we’ll talk about this so other ti. Just tell how can I get the ten Space Gems!” Wang Hao said impatiently.
Shui Yao thought for a mont, “We’re planning a counterattack against the Dark Elf Race soon. We aim to recooperate after the war. If all goes well, it should take about a month.”
“So that ans, as long as I make sure the Alien Race stays honest for a month, I get ten Space Gems!?” Wang Hao asked.
Shui Yao was silent for a mont before saying, “Just to be safe, I think you need to hold the Alien Race off for two months. However, once the Dark Elves are repelled, we’ll imdiately send ten Martial Saints over to ensure the complete defeat of the Alien Race.”
Wang Hao’s mouth curled up slightly. “If I do sothing a bit outrageous, that’s also allowed, right?”
Shui Yao considered for a mont and then nodded. “Given the current crisis, if you can ensure that the Alien Race doesn’t cause trouble and allow our rear to focus on dealing with the Dark Elves, then I’ll permit you to take so outrageous actions.”
“Good, that’s what I wanted to hear.” Wang Hao waved goodbye and then cut off the communication.
“Boss, are you sure about this?” Qian Wanyang couldn’t help but ask.
Chen Yao expressed concern: “Boss, you killed fifty million of the Alien Race’s troops, and now they have a bounty on you. How will they just obediently listen to you?”
Wang Hao raised his head proudly. “As long as I handle it personally, there’s nothing I can’t deal with.”
After saying this, Wang Hao snapped his fingers, signaling Qian Wanyang and Chen Yao to follow…
…
Borderline.
In Shui Yao’s room.
Shui Yao yawned, face full of sleepiness.
“That rascal Wang Hao is finally making a move. I hope the commotion he causes this ti isn’t too big.” Shui Yao rubbed her bleary eyes and flopped onto the soft pillow.
“Ding Ding…”
But just as Shui Yao had laid down, her smart bracelet rang again.
“Who’s that? Don’t they know a beauty needs her beauty sleep!?” Shui Yao grumbled as she got up. If it was soone unimportant, she’d make sure to teach them the consequences of disturbing a beauty’s sleep.
However, as soon as Shui Yao activated the device, her sleepiness vanished. The holographic projection showed a woman dressed in armor, her bearing bold and valiant, like a commanding female general.
“Mu Yao, what brings you to contact !?” Shui Yao yawned as she spoke.
“You never change, always sleeping in.” Mu Yao smiled. “The Palace Master’s cultivation has completely solidified, and she has already set out. At most, it will take her a year to reach the Galaxy Star System.”
“The Palace Master is coming in person!” Shui Yao exclaid.
Mu Yao nodded, “The Palace Master instructed that the Young Palace Master should engage in more combat, as it will aid future awakening.”
Shui Yao gave a wry smile, “Don’t joke, Mu Yao. This Young Palace Master is naturally cunning and full of tricks. When encountering peers, he traps them ruthlessly, defeating his enemies with a single move in combat. And when up against those of higher cultivation, he imdiately starts leveraging relationships, then threatening and enticing to reap benefits. Getting him to fight more, and to fight with his full strength, is simply impossible.”
Mu Yao paused, then asked, “Are you sure you’re talking about the Young Palace Master?”
Shui Yao nodded, “Yes, that’s the Young Palace Master, Wang Hao.”
Mu Yao looked puzzled and murmured, “The Palace Master is very gentle, and Wang Tianyi also has a very upright character. The child they have shouldn’t be sly or cunning. Could there have been a genetic mutation!?”
“I don’t know about any mutation, but I do know that I need to sleep.” Shui Yao stretched lazily, ended the communication, and fell straight back to sleep…
