The death of his brother is undoubtedly related to the Heisenberg empire. His brother was already an early stage universe master at that time, the only being that has the ability to casually kill him, without giving him the chance to struggle or even send back a message, is the old man from the Heisenberg empire.
This hatred is deeper than the sea. After all, if Hong Batian grows up, it’s very likely that he would become the number one powerhouse across the entire cultivation universe.
The Hongshan Empire finally had the opportunity to break the stalemate and surpass the others, but their dream was ruthlessly crushed by that old man. It’s obvious how deep Hong Wu’s hatred is.
“Hong Wu.”
Murong Xi said, “You haven’t forgotten this for so many years.”
“How can I forget?!”
Hong Wu glanced at him and sneered,
“Old Murong, did you forget your granddaughter?”
Murong Xi also fell silent after hearing this. Back then, he also had a stunning genius granddaughter.
Although her talent was certainly not as good as that of Hong Batian, she did have the potential to become a universe master, but just as she reached the critical point, the Heisenberg empire’s cultivators came to cause trouble.
Their obstruction caused her promotion to end disastrously. In the end, she lost her cultivation base. Unable to stand the terrible blow and the humiliation, she committed suicide.
“Alright.”
Long Lin, the leader of the Gangyi Empire waved his hand and said,
“Isn’t it because of these tragedies that everyone is working together? Don’t say this anymore, let’s discuss business first.”
The other four nodded, even if it was Hong Wu, he didn’t say much at this time.
“In short, my point of view is that the Heisenberg empire can’t be allowed to destroy the metaverse league.”
Long Lin, the leader of the Gangyi Empire, looked around, and continued,
“The growth speed of this empire is quite fast. Moreover, they have the potential to stand beside us, especially the cosmic serpent behind them.”
“The strength of that cosmic beast can’t be accurately calculated by us. However, judging from the information we gathered, there’s a high chance that it’s a universe master-level creature.”
After a moment of silence, Long Lin continued.
“We have been silent for too long, we didn’t have the guts to declare war on the old Heisenberg! However!”
“Someone finally dares to declare war against the Heisenberg empire! This is unprecedented. This is also an opportunity! We are indebted to this cosmic serpent, so we must at least protect his territory.”
The other four nodded upon hearing, in fact, all of them have animosity with the Heisenberg empire. However, due to many reasons, they didn’t dare to go to war with this strongest empire.
Now that a somewhat powerful being has openly declared its hostility with the Heisenberg empire. Although they don’t dare follow together, they are more than happy to support it from behind.
“Well, old Long, I think that we can set up a joint fleet to support the metaverse league.”
Murong Xi suddenly said.
After hearing this sentence, the other four were shocked. Forming a joint fleet to support the metaverse league. Isn’t this the same as declaring war against the Heisenberg empire?
“It’s not what you think.” Murong Xi shook his head and said,
“It’s not easy for us to openly declare war on the Heisenberg Empire, hence there must be a reason for the creation of a joint fleet. An excuse to be more precise. It doesn’t matter even if the public can see through it, an excuse is a necessity.”
“Hmm, how about this? We created a joint fleet to hunt star beasts in the star beasts sea.”
“The star beast sea and the Heisenberg empire aren’t too far apart. As long the Scarlet Fortress is opened up, we can basically march to their imperial capital unimpeded all the way.”
Long Li, the lord of the Gangyi empire, looked at Murong Xi speechlessly.
“Old man Murong, this excuse… is as superficial as it gets.”
“If things don’t develop as expected, the Heisenberg empire will definitely settle the account with us later.”
“Yes. In fact, even if we don’t do anything, the Heisenberg empire will still eventually attack us in the future. The only reason why they hadn’t done so for so long is that they are wary of the losses they will incur. These bastards require nothing more than absolute control.”
“Since we’re going to war no matter what, it doesn’t actually matter whether we do it now or later, and as long as our joint fleet is stationed in the star beast sea, even the Heisenberg empire won’t dare to act rashly.”
The other four didn’t immediately agree. They sat in silence, contemplating this proposal. Some of them even scratched their head in annoyance, a scene that would leave many of their subordinates jaw-dropped.
After a full hour passed, the other four seemed to have finally made a decision.
Long Lin, the lord of the Gangyi Empire, looked gloomy and uncertain, but in the end, he seemed to have made up his mind. After gritting his teeth, he said in a deep voice,
“Okay, I agree to this plan.”
After Long Lin agreed, the other three also agreed. Immediately afterward, they sent an order to their subordinates, conjuring a big fleet and heading towards the star beast sea.
The star beast sea isn’t a sea in the strict sense. It’s more like a huge desolate space on the edge of the universe, inhabited by countless star beasts, hence its name.
At the entrance of the star beast sea, the Heisenberg Empire set up a gate called the Scarlet Fortress, but apart from this giant fortress guarding the largest entrance, there are many small entrances, guarded by a few space cities at most.
Heisenberg did this deliberately. The Scarlet Fortress would prevent many particularly powerful star beasts from moving past.
However, the weaker star beasts would not be stopped from crossing the smaller entrances and sometimes even the Scarlet Fortress!
However, these star beasts will be trapped in an incredibly large area known as the hunting area, which is also a part of the Heisenberg empire. They can roam freely within this area, but they aren’t allowed to go out or go back into the star beast sea.
There are two benefits to this, one of which is to allow their internal forces to earn huge commissions by hunting star beasts, and the other is to provide a safe space for talents from all over the empire to experience battle.
But now, after the five empires dispatched a powerful combined fleet to the star beast sea, the situation has undergone some change.
Needless to say, the combined fleet of the five empires is naturally terrifyingly powerful. The fleet has five peak sages and almost a hundred ordinary sages.
