144: Morgana's new perspective
Chapter 144: Morgana's Worldview Gets a Refresh
Hearing Yang Jian's disdainful laughter, Morgana asked, "Yang Jian Protector, what is this?"
"Nothing, I just look down on that fellow below," Yang Jian replied indifferently to Morgana's question.
After Yang Jian's lukewarm explanation, Morgana lost interest in pressing further and instead said to Yang Jian, "That person below is Xuan Tianji, one of the four protectors of the Lieyang Civilization."
"He's considered one of the top experts in the entire Lieyang Civilization!"
"Those Liesun warriors around him are not ordinary either. If I'm not mistaken, those Lieyang Civilization warriors surrounding Xuan Tianji should be the most elite legionnaires on Liyang Star."
"Hmm." Yang Jian nodded, listening to the intelligence Morgana provided.
Morgana was indeed correct. Although the atmosphere among these warriors below was somewhat subdued due to Xuan Tianji's pressure, even Yang Jian had to admit that all these Lieyang Civilization warriors were excellent fighters.
In all his years of campaigning, Yang Jian had never seen warriors with such sharp eyes.
However, these Lieyang Civilization warriors were only that much. If they were compared to the Heavenly Soldiers of the Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization, the difference would be immense.
There was no need for the elite Heavenly Soldiers serving in special fleets; even ordinary Heavenly Soldiers could already crush these warriors!
After all, these Heavenly Soldiers had absolute faith in their hearts. As long as Su Mu existed, they possessed the momentum to defy death!
Tell me, which civilization could compare to an army with such momentum?
Just as Yang Jian nodded, Minister Yuan Hong led a team of Heavenly Soldiers to Yang Jian's side.
After saluting Yang Jian, Minister Yuan Hong said, "Second Brother, the Heavenly Soldier squad has assembled. They are all first-rate experts."
"I guarantee these Lieyang Civilization warriors will come but not return."
Listening to Minister Yuan Hong's report, Yang Jian turned his gaze towards Morgana.
As Yang Jian's gaze fell on Morgana, Morgana understood Yang Jian's meaning.
So, after a pause, Morgana spoke, "Yang Jian Protector, this Xuan Tianji is famously stubborn throughout the Known Universe!"
"So, I think, without orders from Liyang Star, they probably won't give up their attack."
"I think if you still want to try negotiating, it would be best for the Heavenly Soldiers to keep some distance from those Lieyang Civilization people."
"After all, that way, it will be convenient for us to take action at any time."
Listening to what Morgana said, Yang Jian nodded.
Yang Jian, of course, couldn't just give up on negotiations based on Morgana's one-sided account, so even knowing the opponent was a stubborn fellow, Yang Jian decided to give it a try.
Just as Morgana had said earlier in the control room, what if this Xuan Tianji fellow was wary of the Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization's power?
Thinking of this, Yang Jian looked at Minister Yuan Hong beside him and slowly said, "Do as the Demon Queen says."
"You first lead the Heavenly Soldiers down to negotiate, but remember to maintain a safe distance."
"That way, we can not only strike at any time but also avoid any Heavenly Soldiers from getting injured."
"Our Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization's Heavenly Soldiers are much more precious than any so-called Lieyang Civilization warriors!"
"So... I don't want to see any Heavenly Soldiers injured."
"Understand?"
"I understand! Second Brother." Minister Yuan Hong puffed out his chest: "Second Brother, just you wait and see. If a fight really breaks out later, I will absolutely make sure these so-called Lieyang Civilization warriors come but do not return!"
"Daring to act wild in our Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization's territory, I wonder who gave them the courage!"
"Hmm." Hearing Minister Yuan Hong's very confident tone, Yang Jian waved his hand: "Go."
Minister Yuan Hong acted quickly. Not long after Yang Jian gave the order, he led the Heavenly Soldiers behind him to appear before Xuan Tianji and his group.
Minister Yuan Hong and his group made no attempt to conceal themselves, so Xuan Tianji saw them as soon as they arrived.
However, when Xuan Tianji clearly saw who had come, his expression immediately turned serious.
Because the oppressive feeling emanating from Minister Yuan Hong was quite strong, even he, a warrior upgraded to a Fourth Generation God Body by the ranking rewards, felt threatened.
So, in this situation of unclear friend or foe, Xuan Tianji naturally became serious and vigilant.
Looking at Xuan Tianji, who was cautiously on guard against him, Minister Yuan Hong snorted disdainfully and then said, "People of the Lieyang Civilization, what are you doing at the entrance of my Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization Outpost?"
"Are you trying to challenge the authority of our Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization?"
As Minister Yuan Hong's words left his mouth, Morgana in the clouds was completely stunned.
Where am I? What did I just hear?
Didn't Yang Jian just say to let Minister Yuan Hong go down and negotiate with the Lieyang Civilization people? What is he doing?
After a brief moment of bewilderment, Morgana asked Yang Jian, "Yang Jian Protector, is Minister Yuan Hong preparing to go straight to war with them?"
"War?" Yang Jian looked at Morgana in confusion: "No, isn't he negotiating with the Lieyang Civilization people?"
Hearing what Yang Jian said, Morgana was stunned once again.
No, do you Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization people call this kind of tone and attitude 'negotiation'?
Seeing Morgana standing dazed, Yang Jian continued, "Then what do you consider negotiation to be?"
"Are we Cyber Heavenly Court Civilization supposed to sit nicely at a negotiating table and haggle over compensation issues with them?"
"Isn't... it like that?" Morgana asked with difficulty.
Hearing Morgana's voice, Yang Jian shook his head: "Demon Queen, you need to understand one thing."
"So-called negotiation is always an action taken by the strong towards the weak."
"Our negotiation with them is merely because we don't want to escalate the situation."
"Otherwise, why do you think they would still be alive in this world?"
As Yang Jian's voice reached Morgana's ears, Morgana's worldview, built over tens of thousands of years, completely collapsed.
Now, she didn't know what to say at all.
Looking at Morgana, who was stunned and silent, Yang Jian shook his head.
This Morgana still needs more experience!
This is just the beginning! If she encounters even bigger scenes in the future, wouldn't this Morgana be scared out of her wits?
After muttering a couple of complaints to himself, Yang Jian no longer paid attention to Morgana beside him, but instead continued to look at Minister Yuan Hong, who was currently "negotiating."
