Fantasy: Unparalleled Prince, Conquering the Heavens!-Chapter 944 - 939: Evidence
As the officials of Qin Dynasty were visiting the Immortal City, Li Ru carried a piece of intelligence, and hurriedly approached.
"Your Majesty, the Xuanjin Clan has been exterminated!"
"The culprits are a hidden race, their identity has been confirmed as the Mechanical Clan!"
"This is detailed information on the Mechanical Clan that I solicited from the human high command!"
Li Ru reported in a deep voice.
The Mechanical Clan is a race from the Showing Holy Era, and currently, only a few groups in the myriad worlds, such as the human race, All Clans, and Phoenix Clan are aware of it.
"The Xuanjin Clan exterminated?"
Qin Wudao’s heart shuddered.
The Xuanjin Clan left a slight impression on him, ranked thirty-first among the myriad worlds, with a long history, possessing three Immortal Emperor martial artists as overseers, and strong power.
Only the top ten clans could manage to exterminate the Xuanjin Clan.
Powerful forces like the Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, and Soldiers World might defeat the Xuanjin Clan, but could not accomplish extermination.
Behind him, many ministers’ smiles receded, their expressions solemn.
Receiving the intelligence from Li Ru, Qin Wudao began to read carefully, discovering key points, he stated in a firm voice: "This Mechanical Clan was once an enemy of the human race?"
After finishing the read. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Qin Wudao handed the intelligence to Zhuge Liang, who glanced at it and read aloud:
"Your Majesty, the time of chaos has already arrived!"
After listening, Guo Jia cupped his hands and said.
A single action could cause a ripple effect.
The Xuanjin Clan’s extermination.
Can only convey one signal, that is that the myriad worlds are in complete turmoil.
With the unveiling of hidden races, the struggle in the myriad worlds will evolve from the human race versus All Clans superpower war into a multilateral conflict.
All races living in the myriad worlds will gradually be drawn into the chaos over time.
"The myriad worlds will become even more dangerous ahead!"
Zhuge Liang affirmed.
Accumulated through several eras, the number of hidden races is not small.
Now that the Mechanical Clan emerged, annihilating the Xuanjin Clan in one stroke.
When other hidden races emerge, what kind of waves will they stir in the myriad worlds?
How many clans might be exterminated?
Will it affect the Qin Heavenly Court?
"Survival of the fittest, the law of the jungle!"
"Your Majesty, the Qin Heavenly Court should begin expanding externally!"
Xiao He hesitated for a moment, stating with a solemn demeanor.
Sending troops, it’s a significant national matter!
For cautious Xiao He to actively advice on sending troops, is a rare occurrence even in the history of Qin Heavenly Court.
And this, just highlights the seriousness of the situation.
"Transmit the order, return to court for discussion!"
Qin Wudao glanced at the celestial vessel, having to abandon the visit plan, his eyes gleamed with gold, intertwining imperial intent and domineering intent, morphing into a blazing flame.
This is the flame of ambition!
...
One quarter of an hour later.
Civil and military officials gathered at the court.
The agenda for this assembly was to discuss the direction for the Qin Heavenly Court’s troop deployment.
"Your Majesty, form distant alliances and attack nearby foes!"
"I suggest setting the expansion targets on the eastern extreme, Floating State, Indeterminate, and Broad Scope worlds!"
Gui Guzi stepped out, his deep gaze with traces of vertical and horizontal doctrines appearing, as if encompassing the universe within his eyes, transforming into a grand world chessboard.
The war concept he proposed aligns with the essence of the strategist’s theories.
"I object!"
Wang Yangming promptly refuted: "Your Majesty, during the second war between the human race and the myriad worlds, the eastern extreme four large worlds had already allied with the human race, we have no reason to dispatch troops!"
Gui Guzi refused to be outdone, said: "The eastern extreme four large worlds allied with the human race under pressure, whether sincerely or insincerely, Minister Wang, you know this well!"
He’s not a fool.
Of course, he wouldn’t attack allies!
But the key issue is, during the second war between the human race and myriad worlds, the three great dynasties stationed troops in the four worlds, using military threat to force alliances.
It is imaginable that this treaty is just a scrap of paper.
During the war, forces from the four large worlds didn’t send a single soldier, nor offer any aid.
The most unacceptable point is, when the human race fell behind, they secretly contacted All Clans, revealing that they were forced into alliance.
In Gui Guzi’s view, since they are ’false allies’, what’s the use of them?
It would be better to annex them, strengthening Qin Heavenly Court’s forces.
That’s not the main reason.
From a strategic analysis perspective.
The eastern extreme four large worlds, adjacent to Qin Heavenly Court, not powerful, coupled with linked territories, it’s the most ideal deployment ground.
"Minister Gui, do you have evidence?"
Wang Yangming no longer rebutted, blandly said: "At least until now, the human high command still acknowledges the alliance status of the eastern extreme large worlds’ forces!"
Gui Guzi’s mouth slightly opened, no longer refuting.
In Qin Heavenly Court’s intelligence agency, although forces in the eastern extreme large worlds have interacted with All Clans, it was always in secret, not tearing up the alliance treaty.
Nominally, they are still allies!
If Qin occupies the four worlds, what would the ancient three clans think?
They would label the human race as ungrateful!
If the human race was tagged as such, would any forces still ally with the human race?
This is a dilemma.
Would we prioritize interests?
Or moral obligations?
"Your Majesty, morality is the foundation, I support Minister Wang’s statement to choose another target!"
"Indeed, causing turmoil within the human race for four large worlds, long-term vision shows it’s not a wise act!"
At once, discussions erupted.
A lot of ministers sided with Wang Yangming, considering morality significant.
"Absurd!"
"Bypassing nearby and targeting afar, who shall we attack? After conquering, how shall we establish control?"
"The world has changed, all forces are trying to strengthen themselves, we cannot limit Qin Heavenly Court’s development for morality!"
There were also some officials supporting Gui Guzi’s decision.
Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Xiao He, Zhao Yun, Lv Bu, and other ministers unexpectedly remained silent, seemingly contemplating this issue.
However.
They weren’t pondering whom to attack.
But how to, without breaching moral obligations, occupy the eastern extreme four large worlds.
One notion is certain, for Qin Heavenly Court’s development, it’s essential to occupy these four worlds.
The prerequisite is non-military action.
Now.
In Huaxia’s ancient sayings, there’s a phrase that says ’subdue the enemy’s forces without fighting’.
At this moment, a Hidden Guard member entered the hall, holding a Pictorial Stone with both hands.
"Your Majesty, evidence of collusion between the eastern extreme four large worlds and All Clans has arrived!"
Jia Xu stepped forth and said.
His voice was gentle yet chilling, dropping the hall’s temperature abruptly.
The arguing ministers instantly fell silent.
"Open and see!"
Qin Wudao’s eyes slightly brightened, he instructed.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Jia Xu waved his right hand, injecting some immortal energy into the Pictorial Stone, projecting an image of the ’ancestral land’ of the Wood Heart Clan, the ruler of the eastern extreme large worlds.
The image showed the Clan Leader of Wood Heart Clan and three martial artists in fine attire, meeting with emissaries from All Clans.
A final agreement was reached, forming alliances.
"What a Wood Heart Clan!"
Wang Yangming’s expression changed, his gaze darkening, shedding a fierce murderous intent.
He felt his face stinging painfully.
The Wood Heart Clan and other four clans must be exterminated!
