"Marshal Hua, the people have been brought."

Hearing this, Hua nodded slightly and looked at Jingliu.

The latter said indifferently:

"Marshal Hua, the time between our meetings is very short."

"Do you know what happened?"

Hua looked at Jingliu and the others with a calm expression. The latter nodded slightly.

"On the way here, Kafka and the others have already introduced it to this Cloud Knight."

"A late-stage Essence Refining and Qi Transforming fierce beast from the cultivation world smuggled itself into the Starskiff Haven, and the Marshal, the various generals, and people from other major factions worked together to take it down."

"It seems that fierce beast's strength was a bit excessively strong."

Hua nodded slightly.

"Its strength was average. By rights, it should only be at the initial Emanator level."

"But it possessed high-level energy—spiritual energy. This energy weakened our power too much, so our attacks had little effect on it."

"The fierce beast's bones were also too hard, so it was troublesome to deal with. It just so happened that ten thousand Cloud Knights were ready at the Starskiff Haven, preparing to set out."

"The sudden attack caused heavy casualties to the Cloud Knights. Fortunately, the defensive barrier was opened in time, otherwise, it would have suffered heavy damage."

"According to Miss Lisa of Shushan Bamboo Peak, after Shushan connects to the Star Rail universe, the Star Rail universe will inevitably undergo spiritual energy recovery. After spiritual energy recovery, fierce beasts will inevitably appear."

"In other words, as time goes by, there will be many, many more fierce beasts like the one before."

"Now that the situation is like this, I won't be vague with you. As long as you sign a contract with our Xianzhou, we will accept your joining the Xianzhou."

"The Xianzhou is in need of people. The Xianzhou doesn't care about your past; the key is to see if you can work together with our Xianzhou in the future."

Kafka looked at Hua with a smile.

"Naturally. Since we have all arrived at the Xianzhou, we will not hide anything. Our sincerity has always been very sufficient."

Hua took a deep look at Kafka and the others and said softly:

"It had better be so... Jing Yuan, regarding what was just said, do you have any good ideas?"

Jing Yuan stood up and said softly:

"Marshal, just as we thought before, spiritual energy recovery is an opportunity, but fierce beasts must be guarded against. And cultivators are destined to be unwilling to stay in the Star Rail universe to take care of this side."

"After thinking about it, I think the national destiny conferring of gods mentioned by Miss Lisa is the most suitable method."

"It's just that the candidates for conferring gods need to be carefully considered."

"There are many, many heroes in our Xianzhou history who have made contributions. Looking at the recent ones, there are also Bai Yan and others from the battle against Shuhu back then."

"Conferring gods can perhaps start from them. Those who are alive may not be willing to be conferred gods."

"For those with talent, the price is too heavy. Although they can be immortal, they... can never cultivate and become stronger for the rest of their lives..."

Hearing this, Blade, who was on the side, clenched his fists. He really wanted Bai Yan to be resurrected immediately, but..."

"If resurrected by the Investiture of the Gods, the price is too heavy."

"Even if immortal from now on, life and death are tied to the Xianzhou, and one cannot even cultivate."

"Bai Yan's talent, it's impossible that he couldn't cultivate!"

Blade gritted his teeth, ignored the eyes of Kafka and the others, and said in a deep voice:

"Bai Yan cannot be conferred a god!"

Hua looked sideways at Blade calmly. The latter, bearing this immense pressure, said softly:

"Marshal Hua, for the sake of argument, I think heroes like Bai Yan who have left their names in history should have very good talent."

"If conferred a god, it would be a waste of a genius who could join Shushan. This is inappropriate..."

"Conferring gods should be the treatment for those Xianzhou heroes who are confirmed to have no talent!" ===== CHAPTER 1000 =====

911. Those who do not plan for all ages are not enough to plan for a moment

Hearing Blade say this, she said with an indifferent expression:

"For the time being, this is just your own selfishness; how can the major affairs of the Xianzhou be decided by your selfishness?"

"Everything is for the overall situation of the Xianzhou!"

Blade stood up suddenly.

"Since it is for the overall situation of the Xianzhou, we should not deify people casually!"

"I know that you don't want to listen to the opinions of a sinner of the Xianzhou like me, but I am serious about this sentence."

"The future of the Xianzhou is closely related to cultivators; the only way to make the Xianzhou more powerful is to have more powerful cultivators."

"Marshal Hua, you have been to Shushan; you know better than anyone that if the Investiture of the Gods is really that good, why don't Sect Leader Zhongli, Elder Kevin, and the others deify their old friends?"

"With their status, are they not worthy of possessing the Investiture of the Gods?"

"In the final analysis, it is because they are unwilling to let their friends be deified."

"Admittedly, deification is good, immortal and indestructible, but for some people, this is a constraint."

"Just like the choice of Elder Kevin and the others, they don't want to make decisions for their friends."

"And now, in the past history of the Xianzhou, there may be more people with talent than we imagine."

"Since that is the case, why use the Investiture of the Gods to cut off their hope?"

"No one has the qualification to decide the future for others!"

"I have experienced this kind of thing once, so I understand."

Looking at Blade, who could rarely say such a long string of reasonable words, Kafka and the others were a little surprised.

"What you said is reasonable and well-founded, making it hard for me to refuse. As you said, the heroes of the Xianzhou in history must also be geniuses."

"We really shouldn't decide their future, but have you ever thought about it?"

Hua paused and said calmly:

"The Investiture of the Gods can resurrect them."

"Without relying on the Investiture of the Gods, what ability do you have to resurrect them?"

"Even Elder Kevin and the others find it difficult to resurrect people; experts store true spirits and use forbidden techniques, such as the Resurrection from the Dead, one of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Methods."

"But how many people can use this kind of technique?"

"If even resurrection cannot be done, cultivation is just empty talk."

Blade immediately said:

"But compared to when we were in the past and had no chance to reverse regrets, aren't we luckier now?"

"At the very least, we clearly know that all of this can be done, isn't that right?"

"The Generals can put themselves in others' shoes; can you say that the people you care about don't have talent and can be deified?"

"We have time, why can't we wait?"

"In the final analysis, shouldn't we be looking at future development?"

These words made many high-level officials fall silent.

Although these words were unpleasant, the meaning was not wrong.

After a moment of silence, Hua withdrew her gaze and said calmly:

"Blade's words have some truth; the matter of deification is of great importance."

"For the Xianzhou, we really cannot just look at the present; temporary gains and losses are actually not that important when placed in the overall context of the Xianzhou."

"Those who do not plan for the overall situation are not enough to plan for a region; those who do not plan for all ages are not enough to plan for a moment."

"At this time of great change for the Xianzhou, any small change will yield amazing results in the long-term development of the future."

"Therefore, from now on, every step we take must be careful, careful, and more careful."

"The matter of deification need not be mentioned for the time being; let's wait until we have a perfect solution later."

Hearing this, everyone nodded solemnly.

912. Fu Hua, who became sworn sisters with Hua

Regarding the Xianzhou's subsequent response to the recovery of spiritual energy, it had basically been decided.

Next, Hua actually wanted to talk to the Stellaron Hunters and sign a contract.

But she didn't have time to speak before the Cloud Knight at the door ran in in a hurry again.

"What happened again..."

Hua sighed with a headache.

This meeting had been held until now, and after talking for a long time, it was interrupted repeatedly, and no useful things were said at all.
