CHAPTER TEXT:
PS: Thank you for calling me Brother Ma. Yesterday, I received a generous tip of fifty thousand starting coins, and further updates will follow. Today, there might be an extra update, or maybe not... Today is Father's Day, and I have some matters to attend to this afternoon. Tomorrow is my birthday, so I might be quite busy over these two days. If the updates are sparse, I hope for your understanding; I will definitely make it up later! Lastly, I wish all the fathers around the world a happy Father's Day.
...
Seeing the gaze from Yang Hong, thoughts quickly flashed through Wen Yu's mind, and he swiftly organized the plans he had just conceived.
Establish an organization to invite those lone strong practitioners who are unwilling to join the military.
The first point is to expand his influence—if he could have ten strong practitioners of Yang Hong’s caliber stand by his side because he was framed and opposed the military, even if they didn’t need to do anything, merely showing such an attitude might cause Lin Haifeng to reconsider the balance between costs and benefits.
If strength is inadequate, then use influence; even a loose coalition, as long as there is a stance, will form a latent force and pose a deterrent to enemies—indeed, through this incident, Wen Yu felt that his enemies were no longer just the demonic clan.
The second point is to weaken the military's strength!
Currently, Wen Yu would definitely not naively believe that Lin Haifeng saying he would reach a peace agreement meant everything would be fine.
One must always be wary, especially against an old fox like Lin Haifeng!
Each time a sequence-level strong practitioner is persuaded to join, the military loses a portion of its power—after all, with Lin Haifeng's methods, if soft measures don’t work, he can use hard ones, and if that fails, he can resort to underhanded tactics. The military has plenty of ways to control someone!
As for whether they genuinely want to join this organization or if they are hidden agents sent by the military, with Victor around, there won’t be any problems.
Victor can easily enter the dreams of others, observe their memories, and even check their thoughts—most terrifyingly, all of this cannot be detected!
Even the past Wen Yu was deceived by Victor’s illusions, unable to distinguish between reality and fantasy. If it weren’t for the Earth’s will telling him a bunch of strange things at the end, he would never have realized he entered a dream, let alone others!
With this in mind, Wen Yu continued speaking to Yang Hong.
"What do you think of this proposal?"
Yang Hong nodded heavily. Then he quickly said,
"Actually, I had this idea before, but my strength was simply insufficient to rally strong practitioners. But you are different; your strength is enough to suppress the entire scene. Moreover, since the military dares to scheme against even the second sequence, the others must have also been harassed by the military."
Thinking of this, Yang Hong suddenly sighed.
"I just don't know how many of the one hundred sequences are still not aligned with the military."
Upon hearing Yang Hong’s words, Wen Yu’s brow immediately furrowed.
After a long pause, Wen Yu said quietly, "That number should not be many..."
Indeed, it wouldn’t be too many; Wen Yu has personally experienced how strong the military's means are. If it were someone else, they would have been taken down long ago.
Yang Hong, on the other hand, raised his head and said with determination, "But we still need to give it a try, right? Since we don’t want to join the military, we should at least leave ourselves with a few escape routes. No one can guarantee that the military of various countries doesn’t have ideas like 'either friends or enemies' right now."
Wen Yu nodded affirmatively.
"Exactly."
Upon hearing Wen Yu's answer, Yang Hong's eyes lit up, and his speech quickened.
"I have thought about establishing a group that belongs only to strong practitioners, where everyone's status is relatively equal, and they do not interfere with each other on a daily basis. But once something happens, everyone resolves the issue together."
