Chapter 1533
The golden-robed celestial being coldly stared at the pale-faced Xuan Xiaomo and the others, and shouted: "Back then, you were nothing more than a bunch of rogue cultivators wandering around various star fields. Later, with the help of my Nine Dragons Star, you were able to re-establish your dynasty and have a vast place to live. I never expected that after only a little over 100,000 years, you would forget the kindness you once showed us!"
“Xuan Xiaomo, listen carefully. This time you led the rebellion, and everything you have worked so hard to build will be wiped out and rebuilt.”
Feng Ling's ancestors swept their gloomy gazes over the six thousand feudal lords and immortals who were following His Majesty's formation, and shouted: "And you ants who are not worthy of being on the table, you will all die, and your clansmen will become the next mine slaves to replace them!"
Upon hearing this, Xuan Xiaomo could no longer contain his anger and roared in rebuttal. He pointed at the six immortals opposite him with a frenzied rage and cursed, "I never imagined you were all such shameless bastards! When we signed the alliance, we agreed to hand over 40% of the resources of the Divine Mine Continent. But what happened afterward? You demanded and extorted from us in every way. Now, tens of thousands of years later, the resources that my Xuanxiao Star has actually handed over are a full 70% or even 80%!"
Xuan Xiaomo roared, "You've plundered 70-80% of our resources, leaving the younger generation of cultivators on Xuanxiao Star with no strength to venture beyond the stars and train to become stronger!"
"Rather than be exploited by you layer by layer, with no hope in sight for millions of years, why can't I devise a way out?!"
……
These secrets were revealed in public, which enraged many feudal lords and immortals. It turned out that for more than 100,000 years, they had misunderstood His Majesty the Emperor: it was not that His Majesty was stingy, but that 70-80% of the resources were being squeezed out of Kowloon City by various means.
"Hmph, you are all vassals of my Nine Dragons Star. Do you really want the younger generation to go out into the stars to train and become stronger, giving you a chance to break free from my control?"
"That's right, you are all just vassals, and you want to become stronger? You're dreaming!"
"Ridiculous! A bunch of ants got a resource star and they actually want to go to the outer realms for training?"
……
Faced with the sneers and disdain of the six celestial immortals and Qingyun, the immortals of the Xuanxiao lineage were enraged. Even many feudal lords, seeing their emperor suffer such a great humiliation, activated forbidden techniques, wanting to fight to the death.
It was only then that Chen Xuan understood why these feudal lords supported Xuan Xiaomo so much. It turned out that his endless preparations were all for the future of the younger generation under his rule.
Seeing that the six thousand Earth Immortals and Loose Immortals were activating their forbidden techniques one by one, Chen Xuan raised his hand to signal them not to act rashly.
At this moment, although Chen Xuan was only a junior in the first Yuan Shen realm, the strength he displayed was comparable to that of a true third-grade Celestial Immortal.
Therefore, when they saw Chen Xuan wave his hand to suppress them, all the feudal lords and immortals who were roaring and ready to fight to the death also suppressed their anger.
Xuan Xiaomo, Tian Hu'er, Wuxin, Beishan Wang, and others also quieted down.
At this moment, whether to fight to the death or to surrender and accept their fate rests entirely on Chen Xuan's decision. If Chen Xuan surrenders, then they will naturally not receive the blessing of the Enlightenment Tree's extraordinary phenomenon, and facing the attacks of the six Celestial Immortals will be like a mayfly trying to shake a tree, or a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Chen Xuan, a mere junior, had managed to quell the commotion of these ants with a simple gesture of raising and pressing down, drawing the sharp gazes of the celestial immortals from Nine Dragons Star. Only now did they truly take this junior seriously; how could someone at the Nascent Soul Realm join such a confrontation?
Facing the oppressive aura of the six Celestial Immortal Elders, Chen Xuan felt as if he were carrying a mountain on his shoulders, yet he remained calm as he looked at everyone. "Elder Celestial Immortals, I have a way to resolve this conflict that satisfies both sides."
"Oh? You, a mere Nascent Soul Realm ant, dare to speak so arrogantly?" The golden-robed celestial being was slightly surprised to see Chen Xuan display such strength.
"It's come to this point, and both of us are at fault. As a subordinate star, it's only right that we pay our resources and taxes, but with such severe exploitation, it's understandable that the cultivators of Xuanxiao Star would seek a way out, right?"
Chen Xuan's witty and humorous words were naturally accepted by his own side. However, the Nine Dragons Star Celestial Immortals did not think so. But since these celestial immortals were deliberately teasing him, the golden-robed celestial immortal also sneered and said, "Continue."
Chen Xuan nodded and smiled, "Since all the problems lie in resource allocation, why don't we formally levy taxes according to the alliance agreement right now? In this way, not only can we prevent a massacre on a planetary scale, but your Nine Dragons Star can also continue to receive a large amount of resource tax revenue in peace. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"
"Hahaha... Ahahaha!!"
"An ant dares to compete with the sun and moon for brilliance and negotiate terms... What a ridiculous attempt to attract attention!"
When the immortals and celestial beings on their side heard Chen Xuan's wish-like condition, they secretly shook their heads, thinking that Chen Xuan was still too young and had taken things too lightly.
"Chen Xuan, are you aware that equal negotiations require both sides to have forces and strengths that they are wary of?"
Qingyun sneered at Chen Xuan and said sarcastically, "If your Xuanxiao Star has the same strength as my Jiulong Star, then unless we fight regardless of casualties, we will definitely have to fulfill this alliance."
"Indeed, all conversations should be based on equal strength. What right do you, a mere Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, have to negotiate with my Nine Dragons Star?" the shrill old man said. "Qingyun told me that you killed my great-grandson Feng Ling's Nascent Soul avatar. Do you really think you can ignore such hatred?"
Chen Xuan looked at the Nine Dragons Star Celestials who were closing in step by step, and nodded, "Then how do you intend to deal with us? Do you really want to change the dynasty, annihilate all the feudal lords and sects, and make our people into mine slaves?"
The mention of such a heavy topic caused all the cultivators on their side to look somber.
"Youngster, do you know how many similar resource-rich planets my Nine Dragons Star rules over?" The golden-robed celestial being sneered at Chen Xuan and Xuan Xiaomo, "If a similar rebellion occurs every 100,000 years, what prestige will my Nine Dragons Star retain?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan said, "So, this time you will use ruthless and devastating methods to annihilate us and torture our people, in order to intimidate the other stars under your rule?"
"Excellent!" The golden-robed celestial being swept his gaze decisively over Chen Xuan and the others, coldly declaring, "Using the lives of all the cultivators of Xuanxiao as bait, to make an example of them and warn others, I think it's imperative!"
