Otherworldly Desert Dust

Gao Yu Yan bit her lip.

In all her life, she had never even tied her own shoelaces!

And now, she was being asked to clean the shoes of this Outer Heaven Guest like some Cinderella on the roadside, and in front of everyone no less.

She couldn't accept it!

Moreover, the education she had received since childhood didn't permit her to do such a humble and degrading thing.

"You should be grateful, he's only asking you to clean his shoes," Silver Cloud Driver Zhao Jing whispered in Gao Yu Yan's ear.

Gao Yu Yan trembled at these words.

Indeed, these Outer Heaven Guests had been intimidating the entire human homeland with their overwhelmingly superior force from the very beginning—they could obliterate everything if they wished.

Life was as insignificant as dust; what was dignity in comparison?

Gao Yu Yan quickly imagined more humiliations, even the possibility of serving this Outer Heaven Guest like an ancient slave. She clenched her silver teeth and slowly squatted down.

Wu Hen squinted his eyes.

Seeing Gao Yu Yan still yield, Wu Hen suddenly took a large step forward, walking past the half-crouched Gao Yu Yan.

Gao Yu Yan stood there dumbfounded, catching a glimpse of mockery in his demeanor. However, the inherent arrogance in his bones made her even more uncomfortable!

What did that mean??

Was she not even worthy to serve him!

As an outstanding member of the human Guardian, she was a bright star of hope among humanity's strong. In her opinion, it was only natural that an Outer Heaven Guest would notice her exceptional qualities in a crowd.

And she had put down her dignity with great difficulty for the bigger picture!

But he didn't even regard her at all.

"You are utterly foolish. If our Gao Family could latch onto such an existence, even if humanity perished, our Gao Family would still have a place to survive. You hesitated at such a great opportunity!" Gao Chang angrily reprimanded.

The person had already walked far, entering the human conference building, and the world's top representatives clustered around him, fearful and obsequious.

Although the forefront technology of the human homeland was surging forward, it still struggled painfully amidst the Desert Dust. If they had guidance and support from an Outer Heaven person at this moment, they would quickly rise to the top of humanity, becoming the leaders that all forces would look up to...

What was dignity? Discover hidden tales at empire

The powers that once held the ultimate authority had completely abandoned it. Some women even took the initiative to clean the entire body of the Outer Heaven Guest once Gao Yu Yan hesitated for a while.

...

At the long table of the human conference.

Wu Hen's gaze swept over these frontier leaders.

Honestly, Wu Hen had no affection for this group.

When Qiu City and Li City were suffering, these people never thought of giving any relief.

During the locust Evil Realm disaster, they prioritized preserving their own strength, letting Nuwa God End endure the locust attacks, letting the homeland suffer the living dead catastrophe...

Perhaps in the eyes of these high-ranking human officials, those living outside the Silver Dome were just a bunch of stinking bugs and cockroaches, no matter how many died, it had nothing to do with them.

They couldn't imagine they, too, would be regarded as stinking bugs and cockroaches one day!

"This is our plan, please have a look." A stunningly beautiful female executive approached, dignified and elegant.

Wu Hen had some impression of this female executive. She used to report disasters from various places and had unknowingly become a mature and attractive goddess in the hearts of many men.

Especially his best friend Wang Rui, whose room was plastered with this female executive's posters, including several formal photos showing the high-quality nature of human females that had to face the bedhead.

Wu Hen glanced at her but was too lazy to read the text above: "Read it aloud."

The well-dressed female executive nodded, her eyes reflecting a momentary daze, her red lips parting slightly. Wu Hen even saw her tongue touching her pearly teeth...

Subtle yet bold.

Was she giving a direct hint??

Wu Hen was slightly shocked inwardly. To think such a high-and-mighty public figure could also offer herself for the future of humanity...

Honestly, Wu Hen didn't mean to look down on her; he truly thought this female executive was quite commendable, noble, and not at all pretentious!

"We will mobilize fourteen Emperor Mechas, led by Silver Cloud, to the Volcano Island."

"According to our previous investigation, Volcano Island is shrouded in a level ten eerie fog. Even Visual Spiritual Awakeners cannot see the real situation inside. But using some super instruments developed by humans, we detected a large number of mutant marine creatures within the eerie fog range. They guard the Volcano Island area like soldiers of that snake, ferociously attacking any mechanical beasts we sent."

"Additionally, we discovered that the Outer Heaven Snake seems to be absorbing the heat from the crust, and its combat power is climbing toward fifty million," Chi Qin, the female executive, said.

"Fifty million, what does that mean?" Wu Hen interrupted the female executive's words and asked indifferently.

"We set one hundred million as the benchmark for Heavenly Light." The female executive immediately realized that those Outer Heaven people didn't use these values as a reference for strength.

"Ridiculous, Heavenly Light cannot be measured in such a way. The true strength of Heavenly Light is not in their absolute might." Wu Hen also showed a mocking expression.

This wasn't Wu Hen bragging.

Wu Hen had encountered quite a few Heavenly Light; from his perspective, most Heavenly Lights mastered various Laws and excelled in disguise and hiding. They were more like manipulators of this world, and most of the time, you couldn't even see them before becoming their prey.

Clearly, this group from the Emperor Group was still measuring top Desert Dust Predators with Mecha combat power thinking. When they actually encountered Heavenly Light, they would die very, very miserably!

"It's our ignorance, forgive us, forgive us." Chi Qin hastily expressed her apologies.

Wu Hen's gaze swept over the people at the conference table again.

He noticed that the Patrol's commander hadn't shown up.

In fact, Wu Hen was very aware that humanity's frontline strength was not the Emperor Mecha but rather those Spirit Awakeners possessing fighting clothes.

Douyi Star Factory didn't even participate in this meeting, which made Wu Hen ponder.

Not attending meant they had received the information.

How could Douyi Star Factory's leader know that this human delegation was actually meant to be cannon fodder for the Outer Heaven Guests?

The one informed could only be Mingyi.

Then Mingyi must have a remarkable connection with the Douyi Star Factory!

"How many mechanical beasts?" Wu Hen asked.

"Of Emperor Level, we only have Twelve Zodiac Beasts, others are still in development, and Yuan You is insufficient," Chi Qin replied.

"Do you have any SuperAbnormal with combat power exceeding ten million?" Wu Hen asked.

"Over ten million..." At this point, Silver Cloud Driver Hu Xu spoke up, looking hesitantly at the other representatives at the conference.

This reception for the Outer Heaven Guests was actually monopolized by the Emperor Alliance, not by all humans.

Human strength was currently divided into three main sectors.

First was the Douyi Star Factory. The perfect integration of already evolved Spirit Awakeners and Super Material Battle Suits formed humanity's strongest echelon.

Then there was the Emperor Alliance. The Emperor Alliance developed Mecha, mechanical beasts, heavy ships, and elemental weapons; they were large purchasers of Yuan You and continuously analyzed Desert Dust's mineral substances.

The last was the SuperAbnormal Association, which relied on mutation. Many of these people were scattered in cities outside the Silver Dome. They survived in Desert Dust, favored by spiritual material, and acquired superpowers.

Granted, the world-turning news came too suddenly. To date, the human homeland was divided into these three evolutionary chains, pursuing Ascension. Rumor had it that some human families had also stepped into the cultivation ranks or mastered Ancient Techniques, but those remained undisclosed, beyond the reach of most people.

The current situation was clear.

Douyi Star Factory didn't want to engage with the Outer Heaven Guests, possibly even preparing to fight these ruthless and domineering guests to the end.

The Emperor Alliance, on the other hand, sought to please, trying to guide the Outer Heaven Grandmaster, hoping to glean some information after satisfying these guests...

They never mentioned Douyi Star Factory, probably not wanting to miss this rare opportunity. If they could align with the Desert Dust Force behind the Outer Heaven Guests, they would leap forward as the leaders of humanity, leaving other forces far behind.

The Emperor Alliance was so eager.

Wu Hen naturally wouldn't expose them.

Moreover, Wu Hen had to consider the homeland; if Douyi Star Palace and the SuperAbnormal Association were both sacrificed by these Holy Sect scoundrels, the human homeland would have no room for resistance, being utterly at their mercy!

"SuperAbnormal with combat power exceeding ten million are equivalent to Cangxia Crown Realm. We can summon them, but most of them are among the civilians and are highly defiant..." Hu Xu stated.

"Your sincerity is lacking. I'll give you some more time; if you can't muster a total combat power of one hundred million, we will speak to you in another manner." Wu Hen shook his head, very displeased with these people from the Emperor Alliance.

Emperor Alliance couldn't possibly have just this little combat power.

One Primordial Ship alone could achieve Cangxia-Level destructive power. If there were a dozen or so, they could indeed pose a threat to the Heavenly Light.

Wu Hen clearly understood that even if Ying Snake's True Soul was out, its power entrenched in the human homeland was exceedingly terrifying.

That level of power couldn't deceive his senior brother Gu Yue and junior sister Qing Meng.

Wu Hen needed to balance both sides, neither allowing too much sacrifice from the human homeland nor upsetting Gu Yue and the others.

"So, Hu Xu, discuss it with your colleagues again. Meanwhile, let me invite our Honored Guest to the inner hall for some rest? We've prepared our finest delicacies; please, Honored Guest, do have a taste..." Chi Qin's tone was extremely gentle as she asked.

Wu Hen saw Chi Qin bite her plump lower lip in front of all the high-ranking officials.

He reached out, pinching Chi Qin's chin, playfully in front of the entire high command: "You are the finest delicacy."
