Chapter 271: Negotiation? The Formidable Chu Yang! Moganna Is Stumped

Above Giant Gorge City.

Watching the spacecraft that pierced the clouds like a sharp sword, all officers and soldiers of the Giant Gorge ship formed a strict formation in readiness.

Angel!

This term, once heard only in legends, has been repeatedly heard by people since the end of the Heavenly River Campaign.

In legend, angels represent divinity and light, but as stories of aliens and superpowers spread, to Earthlings angels are now nothing more than extraterrestrials.

The Taotie brings death, demons bring corruption, leaving Earthlings with no goodwill toward aliens; who knows what the angels' arrival will bring? On the deck of the Giant Gorge, every member of the Heroic Legion wears a solemn expression, for the angels have arrived at the worst possible time.

Just yesterday, Reina suddenly fell into trouble, controlled by a demon through a dream, and no one knows what the demon will do with her power.

It wasn't only Reina; Sun Wukong also disappeared for a while, allegedly to pursue certain memories, but no one knows the details.

Since the news that Lord Pan Gu would go to the Underworld River, Sun Wukong became Earth's top combat power, but now his disappearance has reduced the Heroic Legion's fighting strength to its lowest.

On the throne, Kaisha crossed her legs, propped her chin with one hand, looked down casually, and laughed softly, "Isn't that the war‑mad Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao?"

"So you're here; no wonder Earth is so chaotic."

Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao looked up at the sky, squinting; he knows the angels' purpose on Earth, knows Kaisha's cooperation with Chu Yang, and knows Chu Yang is currently on Earth, giving him great confidence.

"Give me a minute to read Earth…"

Kaisha's eyes glowed white as she accessed the Sacred Knowledge Repository to retrieve all information about Earth.

Earlier, while on the Moon, Kaisha made no investigations of Earth, allowing everything to continue fermenting.

This stems from the confidence of the King of Gods and the influence of righteous order, making her unwilling to make even a hint of a pleasant promise.

Since she said she wouldn't descend to Earth within two months, she won't take any action toward Earth.

The white light faded, and Kaisha said lightly, "A rather beautiful world, but its entire history is war; no wonder Karl is interested in Earth!"

"Oh? The Heroic Legion's chief instructor is that Pan Gu deity?"

"Interesting… that cosmic scholar is also him; seems my guess was correct…"

The information about Chu Yang came from her reading Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao's data.

"War? Aren't you also here because of war?" Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao demanded loudly.

Even if this is a war between angels and demons, choosing Earth as the battlefield will inevitably affect Earthlings.

"You overestimate yourselves, but since Chu Yang is an Earthling, you indeed qualify to be taken seriously by the angels."

"Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao, there are matters you cannot decide; let Chu Yang come see me!" Kaisha looked down, as if a monarch issuing a decree.

On the deck, Ge Xiao Lun grimaced as if with a toothache, scoffing, "Damn… this lofty old woman's attitude is really annoying!"

"Chief, may I speak a few words on my own behalf?"

Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao gave him a glance and then nodded.

Galactic Power represents limitless potential, a future god‑level existence; even though it hasn't fully matured yet, it already holds some authority.

"Hey! The one on the sofa! Old…"

Ge Xiao Lun was about to fire off a retort, but before he could finish, Kaisha cut in, "Yo! This little runt is Galactic Power?"

Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao's gaze turned cold, "Holy Kaisha! Since you came to negotiate, you should behave like negotiators!"

"Negotiation? Huh…" Kaisha smiled, "Only Chu Yang on Earth can negotiate with me…"

Angel Yan, who had been scanning for Moganna's location, suddenly said, "Report, Queen, Moganna's position is locked, but it's uncertain whether she has upgraded to a fourth‑generation divine body."

"If we execute a full‑power Heavenly Blade Judgment now, we might crush her again, but it would harm Earth's residents!"

"The number could be… millions!"

Kaisha waved her hand, signaling her to prepare the Heavenly Blade Judgment, and smiled downward, "The choice can be left to humanity itself…"

Angel Yan's twin wings trembled, and she rose swiftly, but before she could exit the atmosphere, a black flash whooshed in from the side.

The black flash instantly pierced Yan's waist and abdomen, its inertia pulling her body down hard, finally slamming her onto the Giant Gorge's deck! The deck cracked, sending a cloud of stone dust aloft.

The Heroic Legion members jumped in fright, and Liu Chuang shouted exaggeratedly, "Whoa! Where did that huge black rat come from?!"

When the dust cleared, they saw that a plain‑styled black longsword had pinned Yan to the deck! "Yan!" angels Zhi Xin, Zhui, and Leng shouted, each gripping their holy swords, ready to act at the queen's command.

On the throne, Kaisha squinted, raised her hand to halt the angels, and said softly:

"Chu Yang, appear!"

"Although I cannot decipher your power, I have recorded this aura."

"You struck my left‑wing guard; are you preparing to battle the angels?"

As the words fell, terrifying dark energy swept through the air, disabling half of Earth's electronic devices in an instant, and the Giant Gorge's command center continuously blared alerts from De Nuo No. 3.

On the deck, Chu Yang silently appeared beside Yan, glanced at the struggling beautiful angel, smiled, drew out 【Feng Du】, and waved at Ge Xiao Lun:

"Sorry, I hit your wife a bit too hard!"

Ge Xiao Lun looked bewildered, glanced at Yan, then at the nearby Qiangwei, waving his hands repeatedly, "No… it's not…"

"Qiangwei, listen to me, I've never met her!"

Qiangwei turned her head away, too lazy to respond and indifferent to his explanation, yet felt an inexplicable irritation.

Chu Yang gave her a look, thinking the girl might have feelings for Ge Xiao Lun, but in the original storyline she had to make a choice, crushing that affection in the cradle.

But having changed everything, Earth will break free of the vortex, and Qiangwei no longer needs to compromise with Moganna because of Earth.

Thus, what will Qiangwei ultimately choose? From any angle, she has no reason to join the demon side.

Ge Xiao Lun stared at Chu Yang with a plaintive look, not understanding why the instructor targeted him. Yan is a third‑generation divine body, and Chu Yang didn't strike, so her injuries were minor; after struggling to stand, she intended to draw her sword at Chu Yang.

Chu Yang merely waved his hand lightly, and Yan instantly lost the ability to resist, collapsing onto the ground, unable to lift a finger.

Deprivation!

After using the Gem Refinement Technique to transmute all Infinite Gems, the Divine Tree in the temple bore a fruit, granting Chu Yang the ability powered by Infinite Gem energy.

As the name suggests, the ability strips a target in a single thought—stripping power, life, even soul! This stripping works under absolute suppression; Chu Yang's strength surpasses Yan's, allowing him to instantly deprive her of power.

In battles on the same level, it can strip an opponent's attack of energy or elements—a decidedly perverse auxiliary technique.

Everyone launched all‑out counter‑strikes, but before the attack could even hit Chu Yang, a portion of its power was abruptly stripped away, as you can imagine.

In relativistic terms, Chu Yang weakened the enemy's combat ability, which is equivalent to boosting his own strength.

The most terrifying aspect of deprivation lies in the absolute control the superior exerts over the inferior; take Yan now, she feels utterly powerless.

Kaisha remains calm, looks at Chu Yang and says, "Another force beyond my comprehension; I even doubt whether you are a creature of the known universe?"

Chu Yang shrugs, "Queen Kaisha, are you overturning your own secondary‑being doctrine?"

According to Kaisha's theory, beings that exist in the known universe are primary beings, i. e., the rulers of the cosmos.

Those so‑called voids—unseen, perhaps even nonexistent—are classified as secondary beings.

The primary‑secondary distinction is inherently a lofty conclusion, yet Chu Yang possesses overwhelming power; if he were labeled a secondary being, Kaisha's theory would look rather laughable.

In fact, though Kaisha is arrogant, her theory has merit.

Void beings do exist and are powerful, but they can indeed be defined as secondary beings.

Because void beings can be commanded by Karl, Ge Xiaolun can also contend with them, and may even crush them!

Moreover, void beings truly do not exist in the subjective universe.

Kaisha sidesteps the topic and asks, "Do you have any connection with the Pan Gu civilization?"

Chu Yang does not dodge the question, shakes his head and says, "No, it's nonsense!"

Kaisha chuckles; for a king of the gods to be repeatedly deceived by Chu Yang does not anger her, but rather amuses her.

"Tell me, what exactly is your goal?"

Kaisha's smile tightens, "You dared to strike my left‑wing guard, which shows that compared to two months ago you now have the nerve to oppose angels.

I could even interpret it as… you have seized a power capable of destroying me!"

Chu Yang laughs, "I never intended to be an enemy of angels, nor to oppose any civilization."

"The war between you, beyond Earth, I will not intervene."

"But on Earth, warriors of any civilization, or even gods, must sheath their fangs and lay down arms!"

With Chu Yang's arrival, Kaisha's dark energy can no longer affect Earth; she is also controlling Denno No. 3's Lianfeng, broadcasting the current scene simultaneously to every screen worldwide.

Clearly this is not Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Thus Character: Dukaao's doing; the war‑madman can command battles, but he falls short in rallying public spirit and morale.

This decision was issued by Huang Shu at the command center.

In his words, this is a war of the gods; Earth needs a deity to step forward! And the world must know that when facing alien civilizations, Earth will not be a free‑for‑all.

Chu Yang's words are like a tonic, igniting hope in Earthlings numbed by disaster and death.

"You should tell Moganna that the demons' damage to Earth will be judged by the angels!"

Kaisha says lightly, "We are not enemies; Earth deserves protection by the righteous order, though it must pay a small price."

"A small price?" Chu Yang sneers, "Millions of Earth lives, to you they are like ants."

"Kaisha, our cooperation is on a cosmic scale, but on Earth, angels are no more noble than any other Earth life!"

"If you descend with judgment, then I can only judge you first…"

Speaking, Chu Yang reaches out to brush the Fengdu blade; sun and moon rise from his shoulders like an ancient god! A terrifying aura erupts skyward, causing many angels to buckle under the weight, trembling on the brink of collapse.

Kaisha's gaze hardens; she waves her hand to summon a massive surge of dark energy, blocking Chu Yang's aura, allowing the angels to steady themselves.

But when they look back at Chu Yang, everyone's expression grows solemn, as if facing a great foe.

In just a few minutes, the situation of both sides has completely reversed.

Earlier, the massive troops were on edge, gritting teeth and glaring at the gods.

Now the angels are extremely nervous, stripped of their lofty demeanor.

Chu Yang lifts his eyelids, "Moganna, come to Giant Gorge City!"

Through the link established by Javis and Demon No. 1, his voice reaches Moganna's ears directly.

Soon after, Moganna's projection appears over Giant Gorge City.

Glancing at the sword‑wielding Chu Yang and then at Kaisha on the throne, Moganna recalls her past two days of corporate‑drone life, a nameless fury flares and she rages, "Kaisha! You b****!"

"Angel civilization really is like a dog, sniffing its way all the way to Earth!"

"Queen, I'm right here; if you have the guts, act directly!"

Chu Yang's forehead darkens with a black line, slightly lifts the Fengdu, and says lightly, "Moganna, you want to use Earth as a gun, aren't you afraid of hurting yourself?"

Moganna falls silent; she has been monitoring the situation in Giant Gorge City, watching Chu Yang's gestures instantly dominate Yan, even Kaisha fears him, so why would she dare provoke this great adversary?

"I'm too lazy to meddle in your affairs; before the void battlefield is completed, you may not fight."

"After the void battlefield is finished, once you leave Earth, you may fight at will?"

Kaisha remains silent for a moment, then says, "Chu Yang, if you wish to protect Earth, I have no objection."

"But if Moganna keeps cowering here, then you'll be shielding not only Earth but also the demons!"

Chu Yang waves his hand, "Don't worry, once she finishes building the void battlefield, I'll make her scram."

I @&*#￥$!!!

Moganna can't hold back, erupts in a tirade, causing the massive troops and everyone's mouths to twitch, and the residents of Giant Gorge City stare at each other in bewilderment.

God… even cursing people can be that filthy? Kaisha's head aches from listening, she raises her hand and forcibly cuts off Moganna's projection, then looks at Chu Yang and says:

"I promise you, before the War Council begins, I won't strike Moganna, but Heaven Blade No. 7 will stay here; I need to constantly monitor Moganna's movements."

"Also… the War Council will be a test of a new king's coronation for you; be mentally prepared." (End of chapter)
