“You are so naive!
He sold you out, and you don’t even know it!
Luo Shuang sighed silently. Seeing Wu Chang, who was deceived by Du Ge and still clueless, she suddenly shivered at a thought.
Something’s wrong.
From Wu Chang’s perspective, He Xu seemed to be always considerate of him;
From her own perspective, her master had always been wholeheartedly thinking of her…
Could he have sold her out too?
Luo Shuang instinctively took a bite of a peach and glanced at Du Ge, becoming increasingly wary.
…
Du Ge asked, “Wu Chang, how do you think we can lure other celestial beings or Heavenly Demons here?”
The sudden switch from “Mr.” to his name caught Wu Chang off guard, but he quickly composed himself. He Xu probably thought he had him under control and was asserting his dominance!
This native is too cunning!
But Wu Chang didn’t mind. The smarter the native, the better his chances of rising by aligning with the Qingwu Kingdom’s princess.
Otherwise,
If he had to worry about everything, he might as well start over and fight his own battles!
The rules had suddenly changed, and he couldn’t get his skills to work. Letting He Xu have his moment of glory for a while didn’t matter.
Once he got his skills working, it would be his turn to take control.
Before heading to the battlefield, he had repeatedly studied the video of the previous Alien Star Battlefield. From the perspective of his planet’s predecessors, he didn’t get much information.
But one thing was certain: whether it was in the Seven Stars Sect, the Medicine Immortal Sect, or later the supervisory institution, Wang Chong from Qi Yuan Star always had the upper hand.
Just like how Chongming Kingdom was now aggressively purging Heavenly Demons, it was clear that one or several Alien Star warriors had already influenced the upper echelons of Chongming Kingdom…
After a moment of silence,
Wu Chang said, “Right now, the Heavenly Demons and celestial beings are still in their development stages. We don’t have a good way to find them. This world is too vast, with eight hundred Heavenly Demons scattered around. If they want to hide, it’s almost impossible to find them.
I was just lucky to run into one outside Datong Town. Even if there’s a particularly conspicuous Heavenly Demon, Chongming Kingdom will definitely find them before we do.
So, I think we should focus on building our forces. Once the princess has her own army and power, we can spread the word and call for the Heavenly Demons to assist us. By then, the Heavenly Demons will naturally come to us.”
“Once the princess has her own forces, why would we need the Heavenly Demons?” Du Ge frowned and said, “Wu Chang, we don’t have time. Once Duke Dingguo stabilizes the situation in Qingwu Kingdom, it will be nearly impossible for the princess to reclaim the throne.”
I don’t have time either!
Wu Chang thought to himself, the last Alien Star Battlefield ended in six months. The Heavenly Demons controlling Chongming Kingdom have already taken the lead. If they grow stronger, they might replicate Wang Chong’s methods, leaving no room for others to develop. I’m more anxious than you!
“Sir, I haven’t been in this world for long, and I’m still in a state of confusion. Asking me these questions is really difficult for me.” Wu Chang smiled, “Moreover, my attribute is bravery. In the celestial realm, I’m known as the God of War, preferring to solve problems with strength rather than cunning. I leave everything to you, sir.”
Du Ge smiled and asked, “Since that’s the case, I won’t be polite. To know oneself and the enemy is the key to victory. May I ask, Mr. Wu, how long will it take for you to regain your God of War form?”
Underestimated, huh?
Wu Chang swallowed his frustration and said, “Sir, although this body is mortal, as long as it aligns with my attributes, I will grow rapidly and won’t disappoint you and the princess.”
“What do you mean by aligning with your attributes?” Du Ge asked again. At this moment, he had already gained a strong dominant position through conversation and psychological hints, while the other party was completely unaware.
“Bravery means being courageous and strong, valiant and fierce.” Wu Chang looked at Luo Shuang and explained, “Previously, to prevent my celestial identity from being exposed and harmed by the Heavenly Demons, I pretended to be cowardly and weakened myself, which is why my wounds have been slow to heal. But once I openly acknowledged my identity, courage arose in my heart, and my wounds healed without medicine. This is what it means to align with my attributes.”
Luo Shuang was stunned for a moment, “So, Mr. Wu’s abilities are indeed suited for leading charges on the battlefield.”
“Exactly, with an army led by me, we will be invincible.” Wu Chang said, “Of course, the princess currently has no troops. I can first serve as the princess’s guard, charging ahead and shielding the princess and you from harm, which will also allow me to grow.”
Shield from harm?
Luo Shuang was moved, “Is that possible?”
“Naturally.” Wu Chang became more confident and bold, “Princess, don’t forget, my wounds heal quickly. You don’t need to worry about my safety. But shielding is not my strong suit. My strength lies in my learning speed. Whether it’s martial arts or techniques, once I learn them, my progress is rapid. But since I just arrived in this world and due to the Heavenly Demons’ influence in Chongming Kingdom, I have no way to learn skills. If the princess and you want to maximize my usefulness, you could teach me martial arts or techniques.”
So that’s what he’s after!
The Alien Star warriors in Chongming Kingdom have cut off all paths for other warriors to grow.
The remaining people can indeed weaken their attributes through reverse manipulation of keywords, sneak into cities, and infiltrate sects…
But if their aptitude is good, they might be able to stay in the sects and learn skills. For someone like Wu Chang, who was tricked by Pan-Universal Entertainment and possessed an old man, even getting a job as a servant in a sect would be difficult.
One has to admit,
If you don’t rise early, struggling later is almost impossible.
No wonder this guy took the risk of seeking other warriors outside the town. He had no other choice!
However,
He’s out of options, and I’m not much better off!
If I don’t come up with a way to break the deadlock, who knows when I might be eliminated by the Heavenly Demons.
Without strength, Du Ge didn’t want to gamble on whether the people controlling Chongming Kingdom were from Qi Yuan Star or their character.
After all,
If those guys learned from him, they might really eliminate everyone else…
Returning with the top score, bringing glory to the family, and becoming immensely valuable!
Knowing that he was Du Ge, the possibility of them killing him was very high.
When it comes to his own life, Du Ge trusted no one.
Looking at Wu Chang, Du Ge said, “Wu Chang, teaching you martial arts is not a problem. But most of my martial arts are assassination techniques, which may not be suitable for leading charges!”
“No problem.” Wu Chang said, “The more skills, the better. A celestial being’s body can bear any cultivation technique. I believe that with your and the princess’s talents, finding a few suitable techniques for me shouldn’t be difficult.”
Du Ge frowned slightly and said, “Wu Chang, although it’s said that one shouldn’t doubt the people they use, and shouldn’t use the people they doubt, whether you are a celestial being or a Heavenly Demon is still uncertain. I can teach you martial arts, but I won’t teach you techniques. I must consider the princess’s safety.”
Still trying to restrain me at this point?
Unfortunately, you don’t know that once my attributes are up, you won’t be able to hold me down!
Glancing at the cautious Du Ge, Wu Chang clasped his fists and said, “Sir, I’m already very satisfied with learning martial arts. When the princess truly trusts me, it won’t be too late to teach me other techniques.
Actually, sir, you don’t have to be so wary of me. I am a celestial being. Once all the demons on earth are eliminated, I will naturally return to the celestial realm. The celestial realm is prosperous and full of spiritual power. To me, the human world is barren. I won’t covet earthly power.”
Du Ge smiled but said nothing.
Luo Shuang suddenly asked, “Mr. Wu, can I go to the celestial realm?”
Wu Chang turned to the Fourth Princess and said, “Throughout history, no human has ever gone to the celestial realm. But if the princess and sir help me eliminate all the demons, I might be able to petition the Heavenly Emperor to bring you two to the celestial realm to live as carefree celestial beings. However, once the princess ascends to the throne, she probably won’t want to go to the celestial realm with me…”
Luo Shuang smiled and said nothing.
“Can I go too?” Du Ge’s eyes lit up.
“You need to earn merit.” Wu Chang glanced at Du Ge with disdain. Just throwing out a bait had already shaken his resolve. Natives are ultimately natives, so easy to break.
He shook his head and said, “Princess, talking about this now is useless. The demons are strong, and the outcome is still uncertain. If the demons kill the celestial beings first, there won’t even be a human world left.
So, we must focus on dealing with the other Heavenly Demons.
And, as Mr. He said, we must act quickly. If the princess’s original plan was to raise an army in a year or two, it’s best to shorten it to half a year, or even a few months. If any Heavenly Demon allies with Duke Dingguo, it will be even harder for us to rise.”
