As the puppet king roared evilly and charmingly, Chu Zhixiao’s soul had been tied up by the red lines. Her head in the illusion was like a complicated mess.

“No… Don’t even think about corrupting me… Your twisted theories… are all wrong!”

Chu Zhixiao’s hands were deeply buried in the crimson mess. He offered his last feeble resistance.

“Hehe. What is right and what is wrong?

The puppet king closed in.

“Order is right, and chaos is wrong!

Chu Zhixiao bellowed in pain, “With the chaos outside, so many people have turned into animals and shed their precious blood for nothing. Is this your ‘rescue’?”

“The people of the Star Glory Federation are already terminally ill. A full-scale operation is mandatory. Of course, the operation will bleed, and the internal organs will be messed up. There is even a high risk that the patient will die on the operating table, But can you refuse the operation just because of

the pain, bleeding, and risk? It is the only way to save mankind!

The puppet king said matter-of-factly, “Without destruction, there can be no construction. The evil order has been established for too long. Only the most furious chaos can shatter it. Then, in the ruins left by the chaos, a new order, an incomparably bright order, will gradually rise. It will be an order that

is completely formulated by us, human beings. An order that we, as the masters of the universe, have personally established!”

“You—you are crazy, you out-and-out lunatic!”

Chu Zhixiao’s body was almost broken into scattered blood streaks, but she did not yield. “Don’t forget that there is still the Imperium of True Human Beings. The collapse of the order of the Sanctuary Alliance will only give opportunities to the evil imperium. I know the Imperium of True Human Beings

very well. It is definitely not what the civilization of mankind should look like in the future. Even ‘Black Dream’ Yun Haixin, as an Immortal Cultivator, said that he wants the imperium and the Sanctuary to be destroyed if possible. Nobody should live in such a place!

“Are—are you a pure lunatic, or are you a spy sent by the imperium whose purpose is to mess up the Holy Alliance so that the imperium can rule the entire universe?”

“Imperium of True Human Beings? Haha. Hahahaha. Major Chu, I have to admit that your question pisses me off. You are… underestimating me, aren’t you?”

The corners of the puppet king’s mouth gradually split open, extending all the way to his ears. He sneered silently, “The Imperium of True Human Beings was a declining nation at the end of the era of the Imperium of True Human Beings. It was strong on the outside but weak on the inside. How could it

produce a… Savior like me?

“No. I’m not a citizen of the imperium, nor am Ia pure Immortal Cultivator. You don’t need to worry. The chaos that I’m going to create will include the imperium and the Sanctuary Alliance. When the imperium and the Sanctuary Alliance fight and both suffer heavy losses, when most of the puppets

manipulated by the gods in the center of the sea of stars perish together with the Immortal Cultivators who are deeply mired in the mud of evil, a new force will come out and deal with them. The civilization of mankind will be able to withstand such a strike and thrive even more brilliantly than right now.

I’m 100% confident about that!”

“What? A new organization?”

Chu Zhixiao’s soul was almost frozen. Even the bloody threads that were dancing around him were frozen in midair.

“What?”

Li Yao, who had snuck into the illusion to eavesdrop, was greatly surprised, too. “What do you mean? What does the puppet king mean?”

Maybe Chu Zhixiao would interpret the new forces’ that the puppet king talked about as the Heart of God Society.

But Li Yao was very clear that the puppet king was referring to the Star Glory Federation!

“Well, it sounds like the puppet king—Lu Qingchen—is planning to make a plan so that both the Star Ocean Imperium and the Sanctuary will suffer heavy losses. The raging flames of war will burn through the center of the sea of stars and kill most of the citizens of the Star Ocean Imperium and the

Sanctuary.

The mental devil explained considerately, “You see, if a cosmic war breaks out and almost all the people of the Star Ocean Imperium and the Sanctuary Alliance are killed, the civilization in the center of the universe will regress by hundreds of years. Hundreds of Sectors will turn into radiation wastelands,

and countless planets will be blown to smithereens. The remaining people will be naked, out of ammunition, and out of food. They will hide in the caves and shiver in fear. The starships that are as magnificent as mountains will be wasted, and the once glorious army will turn into bandit gangs and

bandits.

“At that time, wouldn’t the Star Glory Federation, the only federation with a technological advantage, arrive in the center of the sea of stars as the ‘savior’ and clean up the mess without any trouble, reaping all the benefits?

Li Yao was silent for a long time.

“But

He struggled to say, “The Empyrean Terminus Sector and Empyrean Terminus Planet alone have a population of almost a hundred billion. The population of the entire imperium is simply incalculable. Together with the Sanctuary Alliance, which is no smaller than the imperium, how many people are

there? Five trillion or ten trillion?

“If we want the order in the center of the sea of stars to collapse, at least 30% or even 50% of them will have to be killed. T-t-this!”

“I think you are missing something.”

The mental devil replied, “In the national wars of the previous dynasties, when the order collapsed, it was not an exaggeration to say that nine out of ten rooms were empty. It was not unusual for the children to be swapped. It would not be strange if 90% of the population was lost.

“After all, one death is one death. One hundred million deaths is just a series of numbers. One hundred million, one billion, ten billion, eleven trillion. What’s the difference for the puppet king—Lu Qingchen? The most important thing is that the victims are not the federation but the enemies of the

federation, the imperium, and the Sanctuary Alliance!

“Remember, not everyone is as wishy-washy and softhearted as you. You even care about the lives of the citizens of the enemy nation. Even many cultivators don’t object to ‘collateral damage’ when attacking the enemy nation, right? If you care about the lives of the civilians of the enemy nation and don’t

attack the important military targets, then how are you going to fight the war?

“In order to carry out his own path, Lu Qingchen was willing to sacrifice the lives of countless federal citizens when he was in the federation, not to mention the lives of the imperium and the people of the Sanctuary Alliance right now. In his eyes, and even in the eyes of many federal citizens, it was an act

of justice for the interest of the nation and the long-lasting peace!

—

Li Yao was lost for words for a moment. It was not until a long time later that he said, “Anyways, what he did was wrong. He violated the bottom line of human nature and the fundamental spirit of the Star Glory Federation in the name of humanity. It was an out-and-out massacre and a crime against

mankind!

“Yes, yes, yes. You are right. You have always been right.

“However,” the mental devil said, “I would very much like to know that you are confident that you can reach a balance between the Star Glory Federation and the Sanctuary Alliance and find a small space of survival for the Star Glory Federation under such a fragile balance. It is the foothold for all your

operations.

“However, what if you fail?

“If you fail and the balance is broken, either the Star Glory Federation will swallow the Star Glory Federation or the Star Glory Federation will swallow the Star Glory Federation. But whoever swallows the Star Glory Federation will certainly extend their tentacles to the Star Glory Federation. At that time,

the Star Glory Federation will be doomed forever. All the people of the Star Glory Federation and the so-called Cultivation world will be obliterated.

“If Lu Qingchen’s plan could lead to the loss of both the Star Glory Federation and the Sanctuary Alliance, and most of the people in the center of the sea of stars would be wiped out, the civilization and technology would plummet, and the Star Glory Federation would be saved. It would even create a

golden opportunity for the Star Glory Federation to become the dominator of the sea of stars and the leader of the human civilization.

“Do you think it’s not good?

“Let’s simplify the question. This is the only choice. If one side has to be wiped out, will you choose to let your motherland and your compatriots, the Star Glory Federation and the federation, be wiped out? Or will you let your enemy, the imperium and the Sanctuary Alliance, which are hundreds of times

larger in number, be wiped out and let the federation clean up the mess of the civilization as the ‘savior’ to create new glory?

Li Yao’s soul was bubbling like a spring, indicating his anxiety and hesitation.

“I’s a simple question. Why didn’t you ask me who I was going to save when my wife and my mother fell into the river at the same time?”

Li Yao asked back.

The mental devil smiled and did not bother him. It simply said, “Forget it. Let’s talk about it later.”

Not far away, Chu Zhixiao was deeply shocked by the puppet king’s words, too. She exclaimed, “What plan? What are you up to exactly?”

“Naturally, I cannot tell you my real plan right now.

The puppet king said casually, “You just need to be 100% sure that there is a way to turn the center of the sea of stars into a chaotic swirl in which the most brilliant humanity will be released. Then, you can rebuild the brightness on the debris.”

“Last time we met, I said that I was not a citizen of the Star Ocean Imperium but from an extremely remote place.

“In my… hometown, I tried to realize my dream, too. But at that time, the conditions were too immature. I was indeed too hasty. It was only natural that I failed in the end.

“But failure is the mother of success. There are no revolutionary changes that can be made overnight, are there?

“When I drifted in the depths of the sea of stars and accidentally landed in the Sanctuary Alliance, I discovered that there were all the basic elements to realize my dream!

“You have the most advanced Spiritual Nexus and crystal processors, the most advanced artificial-embryo-bearing technology, the Psychic Temple, and countless starships, all of which serve as nodes of the Spiritual Nexus and are embedded in the enormous national machines. There are also countless

blank brains that are waiting for me to instill the ‘soldiers’ and the ‘worker bees’. It is a miracle and a promised land that the heavens have bestowed upon me!

“It’s a pity. It’s a pity that your kind masters are too wasteful. They have everything that makes them gods and devils, but they only use such things to destroy humanity. They degrade themselves and become slaves forever!

“No. The Spiritual Nexus, the crystal processors, the artificial breeding technology, and the thousands of ‘soldier bees’ and ‘worker bees’ should be in my hands.. By then, humanity will be liberated, and mankind will be fully awakened!
