Chapter 1909: Solving Misunderstandings

　　”Not good, His Majesty the Emperor has been captured, hurry up and call someone!”

　　Those high-powered ministers on the Starstrike Empire’s side were all terrified one by one.

　　No one had expected things to suddenly take such a heavenly turn.

　　Even the empress herself had not expected Xu Yang’s strength to be so terrifying.

　　”This is absolutely impossible.

　　Even a true Martial God level powerhouse would have no way to break free from my Main Divine Artifact Cage, how did you do it?”

　　Xu Yang still had a warm smile on his face as he directly injected a spiritual force into the middle of the female’s soul world beside him, transmitting the situation around his own body’s location to the empress.

　　”The me holding your body right now is nothing more than my soul phantom manifestation.

　　”After the Empress figured out the situation, she revealed a cold smile.”

　　It turns out that your so-called sincerity is nothing more than lip service.

　　You have never truly trusted our Starstrike Empire since the beginning.”

　　Xu Yang smiled and nodded repeatedly.

　　”You are quite right.

　　Because I’m not as real as you think I am yet, if I didn’t leave so some heart eyes, I’m afraid that I would have to be toyed with by this fellow of yours, it’s a pity that your plan was recognized by me.”

　　The Empress was now really gnashing her teeth, hating to break Xu Yang into pieces, but unfortunately she didn’t have the strength to do so, and even the most basic right of freedom of movement had already been taken away by Xu Yang at this moment.

　　If Xu Yang wasn’t such a decent person, but a lewd villain, just based on his heavenly strength, wouldn’t he be able to do whatever he wanted to this empress at this moment.

　　”You little fellows shouldn’t follow the uproar here.

　　I won’t do anything to your Imperial Majesty, provided that I need to make her give me a satisfactory answer.”

　　Xu Yang directly released a powerful mental power fluctuation downwards, and this voice was transmitted to the ears of every single minister of the Starstrike Empire, which was also considered to give them a piece of mind.

　　At the same time, a dozen or so various rules had silently surfaced around Xu Yang’s main body’s side, firmly guarding Xu Yang’s main body in the middle of the prison from the impact of the power of any Martial God level powerhouse.

　　Soon under the leadership of Xu Yang’s phantom body, the two of them arrived at the top of the Absolute Star Peak.

　　Nowadays, in addition to that living fossil old senior guarding the mountain range, there were also hundreds of female captives from the Star Heng Empire.

　　Because of Xu Yang’s proper placement, these people had not only returned to the normal rhythm of life, but under the guidance of the living fossil senior, these ordinary women, who were originally powerless, had actually crossed the threshold of cultivation.

　　Coupled with the Primordial Power Cultivation Methods that Xu Yang had previously imparted to them, these hundreds of ordinary women now even had the ability to resist the average martial artist.

　　After seeing the Empress herself, they all knelt down on one knee and respectfully saluted the Empress and Xu Yang.

　　When the Empress saw that these women were all from her own country, she became furious.

　　”Is this your so-called sincerity, using ordinary women from our Star Trace Empire as hostages to blackmail me?”

　　Xu Yang didn’t bother to explain anything to her, just shaking his head with a smile on the side, instead, the living fossil old-timer who was the leader of these women made a spiritual imprint, transmitting the whole process of Xu Yang’s previous rescue of these Starstrike Empire’s women as well as their children to the Empress’s soul world.

　　After figuring out the past of this matter, a trace of shame arose on the Empress’s face, but with her haughty personality she didn’t give in to Xu Yang, she just lowered her head again and fell into silence.

　　”You don’t need to have any psychological burden, I brought you here to further corroborate to you what I said before.

　　It won’t be long before the Dark Force Disciples show up again.”

　　As Xu Yang spoke, he utilized his powerful spiritual power to create a spiritual barrier in front of himself and the Empress, in which the two of them could clearly see everything that was going on around the camp that Xu Yang’s main body was in, far away within the Starstrike Empire’s city-state.

　　In fact, the reason why Xu Yang didn’t immediately let his own body break free from the main divine artifact prison was not because his strength didn’t allow it, as long as Xu Yang wanted to do just one main divine artifact, how could it bind him?

　　He was just staging a trick, Xu Yang had long anticipated that the dark force disciples could not just focus on an empire invasion, the Star Trace Empire’s camp must also have belonged to their eyes.

　　Therefore, Xu Yang’s attempts to escape were indeed seamless.

　　He expected that soon after his physical body was suppressed, the Dark Force Disciples would not be able to find an opportunity to strike at the 100,000 Imperial troops, and would definitely aim their sharp edges at the Starstrike Empire at the first opportunity.

　　Their next move would then become the best bargaining chip that Xu Yang would use to neutralize the Empress’ desire to invade.

　　As long as the empress saw the terror of the dark forces with her own eyes, she would definitely look at the big picture and give up her invasion of the empire’s borders.

　　At first, the Empress was deeply skeptical of Xu Yang’s conviction, and she only took such a tactic from Xu Yang as a trick he was using to delay his own invasion by sending troops.

　　After all, ever since the Empress had led her army to the borders of the Empire, she had never encountered a Dark Force Disciple before.

　　However, she did not expect that on the very next night when she and Xu Yang arrived at the apex of the Jade Star Peak, a large number of Dark Force Disciples had finally become unable to hold back and struck at the camps of the border city-states of the Starstrike Empire.

　　The flames that rose up to the sky amongst the spiritual light curtain immediately drew the extra attention of Xu Yang and the Empress.

　　Through the most perfect field of vision that was Xu Yang’s main body, the Empress’s face was hard to see.

　　”Dammit, what the hell is going on with these guys, each and every one of them is clad in robes of various colors, I have no way to see their faces.

　　And each one of them possesses a very powerful strength that can never be fought by an ordinary martial artist.

　　It seems that what you said to me before was all true, and that I misunderstood you.”

　　This was the first time the Empress took the initiative to bow her head to Xu Yang, admitting her error in judgment.

　　Xu Yang naturally did not want to do anything to her, after all, he only wanted to obtain the empress’ soul resonance, only then could he fundamentally resolve the conflict between the two empires.

　　Xu Yang sat by her side and spread his hands helplessly.

　　”Now you can understand my good intentions, right?

　　The more fiercely the strife between your two empires is fought and the more martial artists that fall, the more these disciples of the dark forces will benefit.

　　And when these meaningless war puppets of theirs truly grow to a certain size and strength, they will not hesitate to aim the sharp edges of their hands at all the imperial forces amongst the Ancient Martial Divine Path.

　　At that time, their master behind the scenes will fully recover, and the entire Ancient Martial Divine Dao will fall under his control.”
