Fu Qiu did not choose to offer comfort.

“Get up.”

He stood in front of Heavenly Beings’ King, his voice icy and severe.

The glinting chill in the air appeared along with his words.

In front of Heavenly Beings’ King’s forehead, a few strands of hair slowly drifted down.

Feeling threatened,

his skin instinctively broke out in goosebumps.

“Hey, what are you doing?!”

Asgard widened his eyes.

Even now, he did not understand what had happened, nor could he fathom why Fu Qiu would suddenly attack.

Heavenly Beings’ King also raised his head.

What met his eyes was Fu Qiu’s gaze, filled with disgust and killing intent.

“A mere native Homo sapiens has scared you to this pitiful state?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Maybe your opponent’s talent is stronger than yours, and their rate of progress far exceeds yours, but so what?”

“Your present status is that of a subordinate, feared by countless Homo sapiens.”

“The faction you belong to is the strongest force above the universe.”

“If you can’t beat them alone, you can find a way to climb higher and bring more people to fight with you.”

“If you can’t beat them now, then find a way to get stronger.”

“Is it that the Supreme Demon Lord can’t give you confidence?”

“Or are you just intrinsically worthless?”

“If you have summoned me from the Reincarnation Pool to the front line just to watch you hang your head in defeat and have your spirit broken,”

“then I don’t mind sending you back to the Reincarnation Pool now and applying to erase your information from above.”

“Trash, not fit to be my captain.”

“And even less fit to be a subordinate.”

Towards the end,

Fu Qiu was deliberate with every word.

With each sentence he uttered, the chill at the Heavenly Beings’ King’s neck crept a fraction closer.

It seemed to be as the other had said.

If he continued to show such weakness,

he would most likely take immediate action and end his life.

“Hold on, hold on.”

As the tension escalated to the breaking point,

Asgard could no longer stay seated.

Although still unclear about the full story,

it appeared that his captain had a damn impressive arch-nemesis, who had shattered his morale.

“Captain, actually Little Sword has a point.”

“The power of an individual is indeed negligible in front of a subordinate.”

“I’m still waiting for the day when you become Commander so that I won’t have to go on missions anymore, so don’t quit on me now!”

Asgard patted the shoulder of Heavenly Beings’ King.

No sooner had he finished speaking,

than he felt a gaze filled with killing intent cast upon him from his side.

“Call me Little Sword one more time, and I’ll kill you too.”

In response,

Asgard chuckled with a ‘heh heh.’

“I’m just trying to lighten the mood, right?”

He raised his hands in surrender and slowly stepped back.

It was at that moment,

ripples of invisible energy surfaced in the air.

The sharp chill that had surrounded Heavenly Beings’ King dissipated along with it.

Heavenly Beings’ King utilized the Power of Law at his command.

“I apologize.”

The huge body slowly stood upright.

Perhaps he had already figured things out.

Or perhaps, he was inspired by the words of Fu Qiu.

The previous defeatism and timidity were swept away in their entirety.

Heavenly Beings’ King regained his former demeanor.

He looked at his two crew members and apologized sincerely.

“I apologize for my weakness to you.”

“This is the first time, and it will be the last.”

“No matter what enemies or challenges I face in the future,”

“I will not back down a single step.”

“This is my promise to you.”

Having said this,

he turned to look at Fu Qiu.

“Thank you.”

He said softly.

In response,

Fu Qiu snorted coldly, noncommittal.

But the murderous aura that surrounded him had already dispersed.

“Alright, all’s well that ends well.”

On the other hand, Asgard still had a jocular expression.

“Captain, I still have high hopes for you.”

“No matter what kind of arch-enemy or nemesis you have,”

“when the time comes for you to call a bunch of people to gang up on them, I’ll also lend a hand.”

He slapped Heavenly Beings’ King’s shoulder.

“Thank you.”

Heavenly Beings’ King returned the gratitude.

Now, he had completely pulled himself together.

No matter how strong Chen Sheng was.

No matter how fast the other grew.

As long as he walked forward resolutely, he would eventually surpass the other one day.

Moreover,

as a subordinate,

he had countless opportunities to try and fail.

But Chen Sheng, he only had one chance.

At this thought,

The Heavenly Beings’ King gathered his thoughts.

“Let’s go,”

His voice regained its usual majesty and indifference.

“Back to Apocalypse Star.”

“Take on the next mission.”

Huh?

Upon hearing these words,

Fu Qiu had yet to react,

but Asgard’s face collapsed in an instant.

Even the tentacles on his chin seemed listless.

“Can I slack off then?!”

——————

At the same time,

Outside the countless universes,

A planet of modern civilization.

“This is the life,”

Lu Yang of the Resistance Army lay lazily on the beach, basking in the sun.

When he had been embodying the World Consciousness, he had taken quite a liking to the pleasures of Homo sapiens.

The only problem was that he had been too busy contending with the Heavenly Beings’ King to enjoy such leisure.

But now,

After turning down Chen Sheng and showing the Resistance Army Leader, Zuo Wei, his way of making tough choices,

Lu Yang had been preliminarily promoted from a low-level combat personnel to the management layer.

He no longer had to travel constantly like he used to.

He would only need to lead the team when the Leader directly assigned special tasks.

Most of the time,

His job was to calmly enhance his own strength while commanding his subordinates to complete tasks.

Just like now,

Having finally found a civilization similar to Chen Sheng’s world, Lu Yang had found several days to truly rest.

Unfortunately,

The good times were always fleeting.

Becoming part of the management layer never meant one could slack off,

but rather, it entailed taking on even greater responsibilities.

Feeling the pulsation of his communicator, Lu Yang took off his sunglasses.

“Ah—peace and quiet is hard to come by.”

He sprang up from his deck chair,

Lu Yang pulled out the glowing communicator, causing it to hover in midair.

Such a product,

was clearly not from his world.

But strangely,

The beach was bustling with people.

Everywhere there were tourists playing and frolicking.

Yet it seemed as if nobody could see what was happening here, continuing with their own activities.

“Branch Chief Lu, the grandchild of the Spiritual Martial King is now in our hands,”

“The alliance talks are in the next few days,”

“He will surely not be able to refuse our help.”

A respectful voice came from the other end of the communicator.

Upon hearing this,

A hint of a smile tugged at Lu Yang’s lips.

“Very good,”

“Although the Spiritual Martial World is insignificant, the Spiritual Martial King himself is powerful and has the ability to create pocket universes, which can provide us with significant help,”

“During the negotiations, pay attention to your wording, do not let the other party feel coerced by the Resistance Army.”

As a Branch Chief of the Resistance Army, Lu Yang’s first task was to recruit a powerhouse known as the “Spiritual Martial King.”

The world of the latter might only be a mid-level in terms of energy stages,

but the Spiritual Martial King, being a prodigy, was not only a Universe Level Powerhouse but also possessed the marvelous method to create pocket universes.

If they could secure his support,

it would greatly alleviate the pressure on the Resistance Army Leader, Jiu Yang Zi.

However,

The situation of the Spiritual Martial King and the Spiritual Martial World was very special.

Firstly, his own strength was formidable.

Yet the Spiritual Martial World was just a World of Martial Arts, not highly valuable,

and it had been refined into a pocket universe, making the entrance difficult to find.

This meant that if the Subordinates wanted to devour the Spiritual Martial World, they would need to dispatch a large number of personnel or high-level individuals to suppress the Spiritual Martial King and find the entrance to the pocket universe.

Mobilizing such a large force for a World of Martial Arts

was somewhat too costly for the Subordinates.

The universe is endless,

and they would not exhaust themselves over just one.

Moreover, the Spiritual Martial King had always only sought self-preservation and had not openly opposed the Subordinates as the Resistance Army had.

Therefore,

his priority within the Subordinates’ ranks was quite low, making his situation relatively safe.

The Resistance Army had extended an olive branch to him several times, but it was always rejected by the Spiritual Martial King.

This,

Lu Yang could understand,

as he too would not have sought trouble in such a situation.

But now, the circumstances had changed.

To make the Spiritual Martial King feel threatened and under pressure, Lu Yang had employed a few subtle tricks.

He believed that this time,

the Spiritual Martial King would not turn down the Resistance Army’s invitation.

With that thought, Lu Yang gathered his thoughts.

“Be discreet in your actions, only contact me if there’s a major incident.”

He briefly gave a few orders and was about to end the communication,

“Branch Chief, there’s one more thing…”

But just then,

from the other end of the communicator, the voice spoke again.
