Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito-Chapter 1822 - 20: Willing to Charge Forward With You
"Lord!"
Mei Ping was startled, looking all around, but there was no trace of Jia Yan.
"I definitely, definitely will find you within thirty years, sob, I want to become your direct disciple!"
As Jia Yan said this, his avatar returned to the interior of the Adisa.
He didn’t even know why he would say something like this, because in his view, this little Mei Ping didn’t have a great cultivation talent. Not to mention reaching the Star Space Level in twenty years, it was likely she would never be able to take that step in her lifetime.
However, everyone might have their opportunities, and Jia Yan didn’t want to dash her hopes. After all, she was once a semi-teacher and friend to him as a child.
So he gave Mei Ping a beautiful dream, but Jia Yan felt that this beautiful dream was basically impossible to achieve.
After all, even if Mei Ping reached the Star Space Level in twenty years, no, even if she achieved it in ten years, so what?
Trying to find the Orion Arm at nearly 20,000 light-years away, almost half the distance of the Milky Way, for a mere Star Space Level being, it was almost impossible even if one lived to old age...
"Heh, I don’t know if saying this is harming her or giving her hope. I thought I was devoid of human emotions, but it turns out I still have them."
Jia Yan gave a bitter smile, then sat cross-legged somewhere inside the Adisa, cutting off the connection with his true body.
All his energy was concentrated on his true body.
"Sigh, so these things happened with the avatar... No matter, at most, when I leave, I’ll just instruct a few subordinates to take care of her a bit. Of course, not too much, or she’ll raise hopes again. It’s best for little Mei Ping to live her life well on this planet."
Jia Yan sighed.
"Lord, there’s a detector outside the planet sending signals that there’s a fleet with a formidable presence, only two days’ journey from here, rapidly approaching us. We don’t know if this is..."
Jia Yan suddenly heard the briefing voice from the Heavenly Bull Monster.
"Have they come? Just in time, as I’ve just come out of seclusion."
Upon hearing this urgent report, Jia Yan’s entire body quivered slightly, shaking off the layer of dust that had accumulated on the surface over several days of inactivity.
Amidst a roaring tremor, his colossal one-kilometer-long Star Space Giant Mosquito body slowly stood up.
"I know who they are. But, there’s still two days, right? That’s enough."
Jia Yan approached the Heavenly Bull Monster, and at that moment, his giant mosquito eyes faintly emitted a terrifying brilliance that even the Heavenly Bull Monster found slightly shocking.
"Lord, do you have any decision on how the battle should proceed now?"
Jia Yan coolly glanced at the distant magnificent Divine Spirit Palace and said coldly.
"This war has dragged on long enough. Go tell them that next, we’ll start the full-scale attack."
"Uh... yes, as the Lord commands."
The Heavenly Bull Monster was first stunned and then showed a hint of joy, nodding respectfully in agreement.
For Jia Yan Squad’s Stellar Level members, their reliance was on Jia Yan standing behind them.
In the previous days, although they were regarded highly by the group of Stellar Level Alliance members due to Jia Yan’s power, because during the days of besieging the Divine Spirit Temple, Jia Yan showed no sign of action, they began to feel dissatisfaction with Jia Yan’s strength and sincerity.
Thus, in these recent days, the group of Stellar Level strong ones in Jia Yan Squad, especially the female god spirits, began to feel pressure from all sides. For instance, the supplies to their mortal army logistic support were delayed, and the share of the Crystal of Belief allocated to them was reduced.
Although those small things were beneath the notice of the Stellar Level combatants, it’s about the feeling. When they were in a bad mood, they became isolated from the surrounding Stellar Level strong ones, even though Jia Yan’s Stellar Level combat power members were far fewer than the over one hundred Stellar Level existences in the Stellar Level Alliance. But because of the unfathomable power of Jia Yan behind them, they didn’t fall too far behind.
Originally, a group of Jia Yan’s subordinates thought that these days would have to continue for a while because Lord Jia Yan was cultivating.
For an average Stellar Level combatant, a closed-door cultivation session lasts a long time, and even the slowest needs at least one or two months, so they all prepared to endure the mocking from the Stellar Level Alliance for a bit longer.
But no one expected that just a few days later, their most powerful lord actually came out of seclusion!
And as soon as he came out, he started ’stirring things up’!
Jia Yan announced that the entire army would launch an attack on the Divine Spirit Palace!
"What? Jia Yan actually gave such an order as soon as he came out of seclusion, this, this, this, we weren’t prepared, no, we’ve been preparing for several days now, but mentally, we’re not ready." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
"Uh, are we really going for a full attack? Our initial plan for this war was just to let those divine spirits witness the strength of our universe strongman system, but Jia Yan’s plan seems to really want to completely annihilate them?"
"It’s so exaggerated, knowing that even though we’ve been winning continuously, we haven’t really destroyed many divine spirits, and if they counterattack, our victory or defeat is still uncertain."
"Even if we win, it will result in significant casualties. How about this, let Jia Yan’s squad with star-level combat power go up and fight first, while we observe the situation from behind."
The Stellar Level Alliance too was not quick to trust Jia Yan, so after Jia Yan announced the start of total war, they sent someone, claiming that their forces had suffered heavy losses in the previous war and suggested Jia Yan’s team take the lead as vanguard.
Everyone knew this was just an excuse to shirk responsibility.
However, to the great surprise of the Stellar Level envoy who came to negotiate, Jia Yan didn’t even glance at the details he brought along and dismissively waved a paw.
"Alright, we’ll lead the charge, and you can decide to join based on how things go. But if you betray us, be careful because I’ll make you pay."
Jia Yan drove away this Stellar Level envoy like shooing a fly.
"My Lord, are we really going to be the vanguard? We have just eleven strong ones, while the other side... they have at least one hundred and fifty Divine Spirits. We will suffer heavy losses."
An elderly Stellar Level being, feeling almost immediately terrified by Jia Yan’s decision, jumped out without caring whether Jia Yan would be angry.
"Oh? So, you don’t believe in my strength." Jia Yan asked coldly, staring at this Stellar Level being with a faint smile.
"I wouldn’t dare, but..."
Before he could say anything else, Jia Yan again waved his foot: "You stand in the back, those who are willing to charge with me, follow by my side. Let’s see who among my subordinates is brave enough."
In the entire team, apart from Jia Yan, the other ten Cosmic Level Beings fell silent momentarily.
As was mentioned earlier, every entity that reached the Cosmic Level, whether a Stellar Level strong one or a Divine Spirit, does not take their life lightly.
They cherish their lives far more than ordinary beings and, in the past, must have done quite a few unethical things to survive.
At this moment, they all maintained their composure; none of them came forward.
Jia Yan’s heart grew colder.
But he did not get angry. After all, if he were in their position, he might behave even worse. They were semi-forced to follow him, so how could they be expected to risk their lives with just a word from him?
However, to the surprise of Jia Yan and the other Cosmic Level Beings, after a period of silence, a voice, not loud but extremely resolute, suddenly spoke out.
"Lord Jia Yan, I, Luo Longsi, am willing to follow you!"
The first one to step forward was actually Luo Longsi.
Not only her, but three Female God Spirits standing beside her also stepped forward.
"My Lord, we are willing to stay by your side."
Actually, their attitude is quite understandable. After joining this faction, to show loyalty, they abandoned the Deity System for a long time, and then followed Jia Yan, learning from a ’Cultivation Method’ he developed. Perhaps because they originally possessed star-level combat power, their progress was exceptionally rapid. Now they possess hints of energy from the Universe powerhouse system.
And this small amount is significant. It signifies their complete betrayal of the Deity System, and as long as they cannot eliminate this trace of energy, wherever they go, if a Divine Spirit Powerhouse discovers their anomaly, they will be hunted down, because to the Deity System, betrayal is a sin worse than death.
So they have no choice but to stay closely behind Jia Yan until their power fully converts over, not daring to leave this protector even for a moment.
And if Jia Yan were to die in battle or lose, their fate wouldn’t be much better, so there’s no harm in stepping forward now to show loyalty.
"M-My Lord, I am also willing to stand by your side."
Suddenly, after pondering for a while, the Heavenly Bull Monster also stood forward.
"Oh? You’re not afraid of dying."
For the four Female God Spirits to step forward, Jia Yan could understand after some thought, but the Heavenly Bull Monster’s move left him a bit surprised, as this Stellar Level being had no necessity to risk death with him.
"My Lord, it’s not that I am not afraid of death, but I believe in your methods, because I understand you, just like you understand that I fear death. I know you’re not one to send yourself to die carelessly, nor would you easily send your subordinates to their deaths."
With a good oratory skill, the Heavenly Bull Monster explained while also subtly flattering Jia Yan, even indirectly making it hard for Jia Yan to allow those charging with him to die if danger arose.
"My Lord, I am also willing to charge with you."
"I am willing, too."
After the Heavenly Bull Monster’s words, it seemed to resonate with a group of Stellar Level strong ones; they each realized that indeed it was the case, and one by one stepped forward to pledge their loyalty.
Even the elderly Stellar Level strong one who initially expressed doubt joined in agreement at this moment.
"Heh, since everyone agreed to charge with me, then..."
