Chapter 1334 Impact on the Astral Nexus (1)
Su Ping realized what they were thinking. He was disappointed to see that those people were still fighting for personal interests.
Unwilling to waste his time, he said, “It’s settled then. I won’t give you a second chance if you don’t come to the Golden Star Zone and join the alliance half a month from now.”
“Are you threatening us?” The leader of the Black Desolation Star Zone narrowed his eyes, trying to fan the flames even more.
“That’s right.” Su Ping looked at him. “Feel free to try me.”
“Humph. I’ll be waiting for your challenge!” The leader of the Black Desolation Star Zone gave him a tough sneer. He couldn’t give in at this moment? An alliance? No kidding. It was impossible to join the alliance without them accepting his terms!
“Young man, you’re too rude!”
Someone else frowned and said, “We’re not objecting to the alliance, but we must discuss carefully, as rules have to be established. Who’s going to make the decisions? We are all Celestials; we can’t argue every time and listen to whoever has the loudest voice, right?”
“I don’t have time to waste on you people,” said Su Ping coldly, “Since it’s so hard to make decisions, you only need to listen to me in the alliance. I’ll consider the opinions of the staff in regards to the war, but I will make the final decision. Are you satisfied with the answer?”
“You want a dictators.h.i.+p?” The intrigued Celestials frowned.
The Celestial who had spoken in favor of the alliance also fell silent.
Su Ping’s att.i.tude made them realize that the boy wasn’t easy to mess with. However, they had to fight back when their core interests were at risk!
Does he really think he’s like the Primordial Empyrean Master?
“Shen Huang, is that your intention too? Your disciple is too arrogant. Maybe he’s talented, but he’s too young and arrogant.” Someone looked at Shen Huang angrily.
Shen Huang turned cold too, in response to their att.i.tude. He knew that the meeting would have probably ended without any clear results, even if they talked in a friendly manner.
“My disciple is blunt, but you’ve lived too long to be infuriated by a few words. I know exactly what you’re thinking. You’re dissatisfied with the system set for the alliance. All of you want to retain your independence and position in the alliance, while it would be even better if you could gain more power.”
Shen Huang added solemnly, “But guys, what is this occasion? Aliens are invading; the universe is in trouble; countless people’s lives are at risk. A lot of people have left their hometowns and are hiding in shelters.
“There are also many warriors who have left their homes and are now defending places they’ve never even visited before!
“Why are they doing that? Because their families and all of humankind depend on them!
“Even the Primordial Empyrean Master, the strongest man in the universe, has died. This is already the most dangerous moment we’ve ever experienced! If we die, what’s the point of the things you’re fighting for? If only some of us survive, the future of humankind will have to be continued by us, won’t it?
“Do you really want to see that happen?”
Shen Huang’s voice was deafening as it echoed in the meeting room.
The seemingly enraged Celestials fell silent.
Xu Kong and Chi Huo looked at each other and both heaved sighs.
The leader of the Black Desolation Star Zone broke the silence. “Shen Huang, now is not the time for speeches. We’re all willing to enter an alliance, but you must show your sincerity. You want to boss us around; do we all have to suck up to you even if we are Celestials too?”
He added coldly, “You’re talking about the future of humankind. Who among the people present doesn’t care about that? If you’re truly as sincere as you claim, why don’t you accept our terms and conditions? They’re not outrageous, are they?”
Shen Huang turned cold too. “You know exactly what the purpose of those terms is.” “Humph, getting to the bottom of it, you just don’t agree, do you?” The leader of the Black Desolation Star Zone sneered.
Shen Huang was angry. He was going to say something else, but Su Ping stopped him.
“Master, there’s no need to waste time on them.”
Su Ping’s eyes were calm, but his voice was extremely cold. “There are no idiots here; you couldn’t have risen to the Celestial State if you were naive. There’s no need to talk about what all of us know. I will only say this once: Those who are willing to join the alliance, come to the Golden Star Zone in half a month. As to the ones unwilling, I will visit you in person, but I do hope that you can bear my fury!”
“Stop threatening…”
The leader of the Black Desolation Star Zone was about to talk back, when a brilliant fist aura headed his way. It was so fierce that it knocked over the meeting room table. Even the void was blurred and twisted; the virtual Astral Nexus world was also affected.
The Black Desolation Star Zone leader narrowed his eyes and hurriedly resisted, not expecting Su Ping to attack him there.
Bang!
Hardly had his hand made contact with the fist aura when it completely exploded. He was sent flying backwards, falling into the s.p.a.ce beyond. He was visibly shocked.
“Huh?”
The other Celestials were equally shocked, not expecting Su Ping to attack. They were in a virtual world; it was pointless to fight there.
