Chapter 980: Sudden Strange Question (1)

Editor: Henyee Translations

Now that Earth had been baptized by the flames of war, it was in ruins. The various countries were not much better. The area of the ruins was far above the complete buildings. The armies of the various countries moved out one after another and began to clean up the battlefield. Great Xia was the same.

Huge mechas could be seen everywhere on the streets and alleys. Through them, humans could reduce a lot of physical strength and quickly clean up some dangerous ruins. After Su Yun resolved the crisis for Earth, everyone could take this opportunity to catch their breath.

In several countries that were more severely affected, emergency shelters were set up at the last minute. Although these people had to sleep in the open, with the help of the country, all of this would quickly improve.

The cultivators returned to their respective dojos from various countries one after another. Xu Jiajia’s elite team also rushed to the Heavenly Cauldron immediately.

Su Yun was still unconscious. However, after many examinations by the doctor, he had basically confirmed that Su Yun was fine. He only needed some time to recuperate because he was too tired.

In the temporary military tent, Xu Jiajia sat beside Su Yun worriedly. She held Su Yun’s hand and felt the long-lost warmth.

Chen Jie was standing behind Xu Jiajia. At this moment, she had mixed feelings. After Xu Jiajia arrived, Chen Jie immediately maintained a distance from Su Yun. In her heart, she had never forgotten that Xu Jiajia was the person who should stay by Su Yun’s side.

Zhou Xiaoxiao stood beside the door. It was Lü Hongya, who had matured a lot. The two of them trained together and participated in battle together. They had long become close sisters. They did not say a single word. They were worried about Su Yun, but they could only suppress their emotions.

The atmosphere in the room seemed to have frozen, causing the soldiers to leave one after another, leaving only a few ladies with Su Yun. Occasionally, some soldiers wanted to enter for no reason, but they were quickly stopped by the soldiers standing at the door.

“Don’t you have any tact? How dare you barge in on such an occasion?”

The soldier who was stopped looked inside in confusion and lowered his voice. “What’s going on inside? I’m here to deliver water.”

“What water? Tell everyone not to go in unless there are special circumstances. It’s lively inside.”

Even though the two of them felt that their conversation was very soft, the people inside could actually hear it clearly. After all, Xu Jiajia and the others were all cultivators at the peak of the third realm. If they could not hear this sound, it would be a waste of effort.

No one in the room spoke first. A few pairs of eyes landed on Su Yun. Not far away, Zhao Guofeng heard the soldiers’ discussion and immediately revealed a meaningful smile. From his point of view, Su Yun had fallen into sweet trouble.

…

In the joint conference room, the projections of the heads of state appeared at the conference table. Feng Jiwen looked at the heads of state and went straight to the point.

“Everyone, it looks like the disaster has been averted. Everyone in the world is immersed in joy. However, as leaders of various countries, there is no time for you to celebrate your victory now. The crisis on Earth is not over yet. The annihilation of the alien fleet on Earth would definitely attract the revenge of the main force.

“Therefore, we have to use all our time to increase the overall technology level of Earth as much as possible. The Dao Ancestor is only our Earth’s last trump card. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, I don’t want to put the Dao Ancestor in danger.

“Everyone has seen the situation today. The Dao Ancestor triggered the heavenly tribulation and ignored his own safety to buy Earth a chance to rest. Next, the various countries have to develop more urgently and be prepared to deal with the upcoming even stronger enemy attack!”

The leaders of the various countries nodded solemnly. They all knew that although Feng Jiwen’s words were a little cold, it was indeed a problem they should take seriously. After all, this alien fleet that attacked Earth was only a pioneer reconnaissance team.

It would not be long before the alien civilization learned that the fleet had been wiped out on Earth. At that time, they would be more prepared. Earth would only be more dangerous. In the following meeting, Feng Jiwen discussed the next development of the Earth with the heads of state, as well as the scientific and technological fields that focused on upgrading.

The leaders of the various countries had no objections to Feng Jiwen’s words. If not for Great Xia, the various countries would have long disappeared in this disaster. This meeting was also the longest in history. It lasted for a total of five days, the minutes of the meeting were almost 84 pages.

In the meeting, Feng Jiwen emphasized the development of new weapons technology. The various countries also sent teams to collect the remains of aliens and alien battleships and study them, hoping to master higher-level technology from them.

Su Yun finally woke up. The moment he opened his eyes, he saw the worried gazes of Xu Jiajia and the others.

“Su Yun, you’re awake. How do you feel?”

Seeing that Su Yun had woken up, Xu Jiajia and the others quickly came forward.

Su Yun quickly smiled and nodded. He could no longer feel anything amiss with his body. All the wounds had already recovered.
