she and Su Yu had become friends, Su Yu had never once initiated a message to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gritted her teeth and huffed twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Possessing a Legendary Hero, and yet he dares disregard this Princess.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait for me—wait for me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Gu Linger muttered to herself for half a day, only to realize she had no way whatsoever to deal with Su Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she thought about it, the angrier she grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Bai Bai Xiaowei, thrilled beyond measure, wriggled left and right like a worm as she lay sprawled on her lounge chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She longed—desperately longed—to reach Su Yu’s side right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To see what Su Yu was doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the group chat had stopped discussing the matter, she remained deeply invested in it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew just how formidable Su Yu’s territory was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even a single Moonstar Alliance—but even ten of them—could be conquered by him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So boring—I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die—I wanna watch so badly!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After her excitement faded, Bai Bai Xiaowei felt profoundly dispirited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Great God Su Yu could launch a live broadcast, it would be perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you Su Yu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Yaheng Hobson of the Moonstar Alliance stared at Su Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His brows were tightly furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He disliked Su Yu—intensely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Prince of the Moonstar Alliance, Yaheng was exceptionally handsome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rarely encountered anyone more handsome than himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And whenever he did, he simply made that person vanish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He refused to tolerate the existence of anyone more handsome than he was in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This irritating man standing before him\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was clearly one such person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worse still, this man wasn’t merely handsome—he also commanded a Legendary Hero.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That very fact had prompted the Moonstar Alliance’s diplomatic delegation to voluntarily visit Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Legendary Hero—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>how many existed across the entire cosmos?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No—how many existed across all thirteen human universes?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yaheng had no idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it was Su Yu’s appearance or his possession of a Legendary Hero,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yaheng trembled with envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If possible, he truly wished to seize Su Yu’s Legendary Hero for himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze fell upon the azure-and-indigo bow in Su Yu’s hands,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and his resentment swelled further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, after all, was the noble Prince of the Moonstar Alliance,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>while this man was nothing but a barbarian from Blue Star—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>how, then, had he earned such favor from the Myriad Realms Battlefield?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve come for an explanation,” Su Yu said calmly, meeting Yaheng’s gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What explanation?” Yaheng glanced warily at the [Cloud-Heaven Demon Flame Bow] in Su Yu’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your Moonstar Alliance personnel injured my farmers—I’ve come to demand compensation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu stated seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet that very seriousness caused Yaheng’s eyes to snap wide open,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>his pupils narrowing into cross-eyed slits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You got your farmers injured, and now you’re demanding compensation??\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you serious?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How many of our heroes have you killed?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How many of our troops have you wiped out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet you still demand compensation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s *you* who should be compensating us!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you really think Moonstar people are made of clay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To the Moonstar people, in their own world,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they were inherently superior to Blue Star natives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was, until someone from Blue Star acquired a Legendary Hero.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did they lower their noble heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that did not mean they were willing to accept humiliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he was the proudest Prince of the Moon Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ya Heng stared at Su Yu in disbelief and burst into furious curses:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You fucking killed so many of our heroes and troops!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now you’re demanding compensation—for a farmer?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes—I’m doing this for your own good.” Su Yu tilted his head slightly, his expression solemn as he replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For our own good?” Ya Heng blinked, momentarily stunned—caught completely off guard by the sudden twist in Su Yu’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu nodded. “By compensating me, you’ll spare my mood from worsening. And if my mood remains stable, the territories of the Queen Yuexing Alliance can naturally continue to exist.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What? What does that even mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ya Heng was utterly bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[73] Do you mean—if your mood sours, the Queen Yuexing Alliance is finished?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he was still the proudest Prince of Queen Yuexing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is intolerable—absolutely intolerable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Humiliation—unbearable humiliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ya Heng had never felt such humiliation in his entire life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You fucking—!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew the high-quality longsword at his waist and slashed toward Su Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Clang—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Cloud-Heaven Demon Flame Bow blocked the blade, emitting a crisp, ringing sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Looks like negotiation is off the table,” Su Yu murmured, his eyes half-lidded.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Negotiate? You call this negotiation?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Enraged Yaheng instantly activated his territory’s offensive Neutral Mode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, countless arrow-firing defense towers let out ringing metallic cries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Squeak—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirty Legendary Troops—Dream-Eating Demons—soared into the sky!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rare Orc Hero Habason raised his broadsword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tear this wretch limb from limb!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words were nearly forced out through clenched teeth; Yaheng gritted his teeth, blood seeping faintly from the corners of his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kill!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Moonstar Alliance lords, poised and ready, gave the command!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Battle formations composed of various heroes and troops launched their charge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Yu grinned and drew back the string of his Cloud-Heaven Demon Flame Bow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So much experience—delivered right to his doorstep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This counted as self-defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Demon Flame of Heaven and Earth surged triumphantly—the black-burning flames consumed everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Congratulations!
