Chapter 1834: Target! The Night Demon and Blue Demon Clans!

By the middle of the night, Yun Shuying and Yun Tianyin had arrived with three God-Rank Beast Tamers.

Su Yang was surprised to discover that Zhou Qian had also come.

He had crossed hands with Zhou Qian before; among God-Rank Low-Grade Beast Tamers, his strength could be considered decent.

The two of them were also on fairly good terms.

"Elder Chen Feng!"

"Greetings, Elder Chen Feng!"

"..."

The three God-Rank Beast Tamers exchanged a greeting with Su Yang.

Apart from Zhou Qian, he was actually not that familiar with the other two elders.

At most they were nodding acquaintances!

"Elder Chen, Zhou Qian, Dong Xueshuang, Li Cunhao — you should know them!"

"Mm!"

Yun Shuying gave a brief introduction: "Zhou Qian is royalty of the Northern Zhou Kingdom; Dong Xueshuang's husband is an old ancestor of the Snow Mountain Kingdom... Li Cunhao's wife was once the Empress of the Heshuo Kingdom, but that empress has already passed away; the royalty of the Heshuo Kingdom today are all Li Cunhao's descendants!"

"I've already asked them, and they all feel we should retaliate against the Shenlongshang Alliance. Even if, as a last resort, it comes to war, they are all willing to support it!"

"Fine! At tomorrow's meeting, I will strongly advocate for retaliation!" Su Yang nodded. "When the time comes, just support me."

"Elder Chen Feng, we will definitely support you!"

"Right, I support you too!"

"..."

Seeing that all three had agreed, Su Yang felt a little more at ease.

Even if they were to back out at the last minute and the Demon Race could not be retaliated against, he honestly wouldn't care.

At worst, he'd settle the score slowly in the future!

Being able to start a war was certainly beneficial to him.

But even if it couldn't be started, it wouldn't damage his interests either.

The Huaxia Federation was far from the Demon Race!

If the Demon Race kept advancing at this pace, it would probably be several thousand years before they appeared before the Huaxia Federation.

That would be the year of the monkey and the month of the horse!

Su Yang said with a smile, "Yun Shuying, if you can persuade President Tan, that would be even better!"

"Do you think I don't want to? Even now, I still can't figure out President Tan's thinking!" Yun Shuying said helplessly. "But most likely, President Tan definitely wants retaliation — after all, President Tan is far more aggressive than the former president."

"Mm!"

By the next day, at the very start of the meeting, when Tan Zhiqing asked everyone for their opinions, Su Yang was the first to stand up.

Su Yang said, "President, I still advocate retaliating!"

"I also hope we retaliate!"

"We cannot let the tens of millions of people of Chen Guo be killed for nothing. If word of this gets out, what face will our Babaozhai Society have to stand in the Central Domain?"

"Exactly, we must strike back!"

"They dare to wipe out one of our nations — we must wipe out two of theirs!"

"..."

Six God-Rank Beast Tamers — Xia Na, Yun Shuying, Yun Tianyin, Zhou Qian, Dong Xueshuang, Li Cunhao — all stood up in unison, vying to voice their opinions.

In the auditorium, the other elders were all dumbfounded.

Yesterday, only Su Yang and Tan Ming had voiced their opinions, but today, right from the start, seven God-Rank Beast Tamers supported retaliation.

Many elders were not mentally prepared.

Tan Ming's face darkened, and he said nothing.

Having been hurt to the core by his daughter yesterday, he no longer wished to speak.

Yun Shuying said, "President Tan, within our nation now, there are already forces beginning to make contact with the Demon Race. If the matter of Chen Guo is not handled well, or if, as in the past, there is no satisfactory resolution, more and more families and forces will defect to the Demon Race!"

Tan Zhiqing said softly, "But those are the Demon Race!"

"Everyone knows they are the Demon Race, but people are selfish, afraid of death. If there is enough profit, they will certainly be willing to defect to the Demon Race. If we are not a little more forceful..." Yun Shuying said softly, "... then the border nations will very likely all defect to the Demon Race."

Tan Ming slammed his palm and shattered the long table, roaring, "How dare they!"

"Why wouldn't they dare?" Su Yang could not help but laugh. "The Babaozhai Society, for the sake of the bigger picture, does not dare to strike at Demon Race nations, but the Demon Race can ignore the bigger picture and casually wipe out human nations within the Babaozhai Society's sphere of influence... Once a human nation defects over, its people become Demon Race citizens. For the sake of the bigger picture, could you strike at them?"

Hearing Su Yang, Tan Ming was at a loss for how to retort for a long while.

Historically, there really had been small human nations that directly defected to the Shenlongshang Alliance.

Those small nations, to this day, are still living quite well.

Even though they were reduced to second-class citizens, the royalty and certain organizations within those small nations still lived very comfortably.

Yun Shuying said, "What Elder Chen Feng says is not impossible!"

Everyone looked at Tan Zhiqing.

As President of the Babaozhai Society, she had to come up with a decision.

Should she let the nations within the Babaozhai Society lose their morale, or retaliate fiercely and face the possible large-scale war that might follow?

Tan Zhiqing looked at Su Yang, Xia Na, Yun Shuying, and the other five God-Rank Beast Tamers, then she looked at her father Tan Ming, and at Grand Elder Guo Tianyou.

She took a soft breath, slowly clenched her fist, and finally uttered three words: "Let's retaliate!"

Hearing Tan Zhiqing's words, a smile appeared on Su Yang's face.

Just as expected!

Tan Zhiqing was still relatively aggressive.

Tan Ming shouted: "Tan Zhiqing!"

Tan Zhiqing replied coldly: "Elder Tan, I am now the President, and the decision is mine to make!"

"Sigh!"

Tan Ming let out a heavy sigh and dropped back into his chair, looking somewhat helpless.

He seemed to have aged a thousand years in an instant.

Tan Zhiqing looked out across the entire hall: "Does anyone else have objections?"

"None!"

"We also think we should strike back!"

"……"

Unexpectedly, after Tan Ming gave up resisting and Tan Zhiqing openly stated her position, the other elders — the majority of them — supported striking back.

Even if it might trigger a full-scale war!
