Chapter 913: Chapter 910 Essence
When Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang engaged in dual cultivation, enjoying the ultimate bliss of body and soul, while also enhancing each other’s power, achieving three goals at once, the Divine Continent Official once again made a statent to the world.
This ti, the Divine Continent directly ntioned Little Eagle, stating that the Divine Continent’s intercontinental missile D could directly target Little Eagle’s inland sea. If Little Eagle fails to fulfill the contract, and insists on Qin Yanyang personally retrieving the national treasure, then the Divine Continent fleet will directly head over, and any disturbances caused to the surrounding nations along the way will be entirely Little Eagle’s responsibility. Moreover, Little Eagle must bear all costs and expenses of the Divine Continent’s operation to retrieve the national treasure.
Lastly, they attached the compensation agreent signed by Little Eagle this ti.
This declaration, sent out globally, once again stirred the world.
The Divine Continent had just accomplished a monuntal feat by helping an old financial group from Korea successfully return ho. Are they now going to make another big move?
That’s really strong.
However, once everyone understood the context, no one felt that the Divine Continent’s actions were unreasonable and domineering.
They have the moral high ground.
Years of blood and tears from the Divine Continent have been laid bare; it was Little Eagle who plundered their possessions back then, joined the coalition this ti, got repulsed, signed the compensation treaty, and now wants to renege, requiring them to personally retrieve their things?
Fine, if they co to retrieve it, such a valuable treasure naturally requires a naval escort, inevitably causing panic among so countries and forces along the way, which is all clearly explained by the Divine Continent and should rightly be Little Eagle’s burden.
Quickly, international public opinion split into two camps, with the vast majority of overseas dia calling the Divine Continent’s actions domineering.
However, these rhetoric-controlled dia under Heaven’s control could not refute the Divine Continent’s logic and reasoning, resorting only to accusations of domineering and hegemony.
Yet, because every action of the Divine Continent is justified by legitimate reasons and stands on solid grounds, coupled with the Divine Continent having quite a few ’allies’ internationally, gradually, as more people understood the truth, the opinion shifted toward the Divine Continent.
Especially those regions along the route of the Divine Continent fleet heading to Little Eagle, they all spoke out condemning Little Eagle’s reneging, criticizing their lack of integrity, chastising Little Eagle as robbers, and demanding they imdiately fulfill their contractual obligations.
England.
Inside the Edward family’s ancient castle estate.
Edward Hughes was furiously roaring in anger.
The idea of having Qin Yanyang personally retrieve the Divine Continent’s treasures was his plan, hoping Qin Yanyang wouldn’t dare co, allowing Little Eagle to delay and not fulfill the treaty.
But if Qin Yanyang really ca, he intended to make sure Qin Yanyang wouldn’t return.
However, he never imagined Qin Yanyang would respond this way.
First, assisting Korea’s tycoon group to return, conducting military demonstrations to deter globally, and now publicly revealing the Divine Continent’s historical pain and tears, posting the compensation treaty signed this ti.
Additionally, they involved those forces along the way, securing absolute public opinion advantage, forcing Little Eagle into a difficult situation.
"Father, the Divine Continent is just bluffing, trying to intimidate us. They wouldn’t dare really do anything."
"That’s right, we’re so far from them, unlike Korea which is so close. In a real fight, they wouldn’t gain anything."
Several key figures of the Edward family spoke up.
Hughes snorted with disdain and said, "Then why do you think their military drill this ti, which could be done in nearby waters, was publicly announced in advance, and finally resulted in pinpoint strikes over ten thousand kiloters away? Also, consider carefully, how far was their last targeted bombardnt distance from their Divine Continent stronghold."
Imdiately soone replied, "Didn’t they already say, twelve thousand kiloters."
Hughes replied coldly, "Then what’s the distance from the East to England?"
Soone quickly searched, beca worried, and said, "Only eight thousand one hundred to eight thousand five hundred kiloters."
The others finally realized what Hughes was getting at and collectively gasped.
Hughes snorted, "Also, that’s not even the Divine Continent’s longest range for remote coverage attacks. With their current strength, they can turn our land into ruins without sending a single soldier."
Soone retorted defiantly, "We also have long-range capabilities, so there’s no need to fear them."
"Foolish, how much do they have stored compared to our reserves?
Do you really think the coalition retreated because of our love for peace?
It’s because our long-standing strong nations are now fragile inside, and our reserves have long been surpassed by the Divine Continent.
The most crucial point is, the Divine Continent has an inherent trait of not admitting defeat, never submissive. Despite being so backward back then, they didn’t perish or get colonized. Now, they possess the strength and resolve to drag the entire world down with them."
Hughes spoke coldly, "So, dealing with the Divine Continent, we cannot confront them head-on but must covertly plan."
"What should we do now? Just capitulate and obediently send the compensation to the Divine Continent?"
"If we hadn’t made such a fuss initially, sending it would have been acceptable, but now after this turmoil, quietly sending it feels like a slap in the face."
"Exactly, we can’t just capitulate, I don’t believe the Divine Continent dares to really start a war."
"Yes, let’s give them a reason to start a fight and see if they actually dare to dispatch their fleet."
While the upper echelons of the Edward family discussed, Hughes’ phone rang.
Seeing it was Tian Yu calling, Hughes’s eyes shifted, and he answered the call.
"Old friend, you must be in a difficult predicant now, aren’t you?" Tian Yu said bluntly.
Edward frowned and snorted, "I’m doing this not just for the Edward family, but to help ease Heaven’s burdens."
Tian Yu hurriedly replied, "I know, so I’m here to offer so strategies for my old friend."
"Oh, what good ideas do you have?"
"Bow your head and concede, take the initiative to send the items over, make a grand spectacle of it," Tian Yu suggested.
Hughes frowned but also knew Tian Yu couldn’t just offer such an infuriating suggestion without more, so he asked, "And then?"
"We’ve discussed over here and decided to visit the Divine Continent," Tian Yu said gravely, "That girl from the Divine Continent thinks she’s smart, but she’s actually made a blunder. From what I know, the Hidden Sect’s forces entering the world don’t have harmonious relations with the Divine Continent. Two factions have already left the Divine Continent, and two other factions, the Ji Family and Zhang Family, have been sent to Korea. Heh, the Divine Continent currently has the weakest number of strong individuals within its borders."
Hughes’ eyes lit up and said, "Is it just our family participating in this operation?"
"Rest assured, our allies from the Penglai Realm have long been growing impatient. Qin Yanyang’s actions in Korea have publicly humiliated the Penglai Realm, and they hold intense grudges against Qin Yanyang. They have called and urged us many tis," Tian Yu explained.
A gleam flashed in Hughes’ eyes as he said, "Excellent. Against such a unique ethnicity as the Divine Continent, only a dark war is the most reliable. This ethnicity is incredibly resilient against foreign invasions, but has an extrely low threshold for internal repression. Once we enslave their upper echelons, we can covertly enslave the entire populace."
"Hahaha, indeed, you see the essence of this ethnicity," Tian Yu laughed heartily.
