1519 Unt.i.tled
After knowing that everyone on the demon beast continent would send big shots to the desolate place to help the unicorn clan, the expressions of the bureau chiefs of the other super large worlds were mixed.
For a moment, everyone had their own thoughts.
“I think it’s a good idea.” Jiang Chen broke the silence and said, “That day, Madam Yu Huang said something extremely brilliant.” Jiang Chen had already heard of the ruckus Yu Huang had caused in the Divination Continent, so he said, “If we can leave the unicorn clan in the lurch in the present, in the future, we can leave the Jing family in the lurch and the Song family in the lurch as well! If this continues, one day, there will be no ‘us’ in the three thousand worlds!”
With that, Jiang Chen nodded at Mo Xiao with a smile as he said, “Prime Emperor Mo Xiao, although your adopted daughter is still young, her foresight and wisdom far surpa.s.s that of many old monsters who have lived for hundreds or thousands of years. She’s very outstanding.”
Jiang Chen had actually heard of Yu Huang long ago.
!!A few years ago, when Yu Huang ascended to the Ascension Town of the Cang Lang Continent, she reported the invigilator as an ascendant and her name spread throughout the s.p.a.ce Administration. At that time, Jiang Chen had a premonition that he would definitely hear Yu Huang’s name in the future.
As expected, she caused another commotion at the Divination Conference. As a young clairvoyant, she had the guts to publicly reprimand the clairvoyant a.s.sociation.
Upon hearing Jiang Chen praise Yu Huang, Mo Xiao looked at him meaningfully. Seeing that he really admired Yu Huang’s actions, Mo Xiao said, “How can my adopted daughter be a coward who doesn’t know right from wrong?”
He sounded like he was praising Yu Huang, but he was actually mocking everyone present for being cowardly and selfish.
For a moment, everyone looked unhappy.
Suddenly, a light cough came from Si Cheng’s mouth. Everyone looked at Si Cheng and saw him looking in Mo Xiao’s direction. He said, “Prime Emperor Mo Xiao, if you don’t mind, are you willing to bring me along when we head to the unicorn clan?” Si Cheng smiled and said, “The Si family is unwilling to send our combat strength to help the unicorn clan, but I, Si Cheng, will partic.i.p.ate in this operation in my own name.”
Si Cheng swept his gaze across everyone at the table and suddenly said, “Like the chief director, I feel that Yu Huang’s words are right. There are less than eight years left until the ten-year promise given by the Great Dao. If the three thousand worlds are like a towering ancient tree, then be it the human race, the Divine Beast Clan, the Divine Demon Clan, the Demon Beast Clan, or the treants in the ancient forest, they are just birds parasitizing this tree. However, when the ancient tree is about to fall, how can there be an intact egg?”
“Everyone, do you really think that the extermination of the unicorn clan only represents that of the unicorn clan?” The smile on Si Cheng’s face suddenly disappeared and was replaced with a cold and ruthless expression. He said sternly, “In my opinion, if you can watch the extermination of the unicorn clan with schadenfreude today, then very quickly, karma will happen to everyone here!”
Upon hearing Si Cheng’s words, Mo Xiao finally gave him a cold look.
Si Cheng was the most slovenly director among them.
Every time he came to partic.i.p.ate in a meeting, he would always dress in a sloppy manner. Mo Xiao remembered that the first time he saw Si Cheng, he was actually wearing a set of navy blue cashmere pajamas. There was stubble on his chin, and he looked very disheveled.
Foxes were very vain. Mo Xiao was a perfectionist, so he couldn’t stand an indolent and sloppy man like Si Cheng.
Unexpectedly, the man he disliked the most was the most sober one in this group.
“I’m willing to travel with Prime Emperor Si Cheng.” Mo Xiao stood up and nodded at Jiang Chen as he said, “Goodbye, everyone.” Then, he left first.
Seeing this, Si Cheng stood up as well. Before he left, he suddenly glanced at Jing Ruge and suddenly said, “Mr. Jing, although your daughter is a young person, she can follow her principles firmly in the face of right and wrong. Compared to Mr. Jing, she is much more high-minded.”
Clearly, Si Cheng had also heard about Jing Jiaren and Yu Huang taking the initiative to withdraw from the compet.i.tion that day to publicize the calamity of the unicorn race.
To be honest, Si Cheng didn’t like Jing Jiaren much to begin with. He felt that the child had been raised into a cold person by the Jing family.
The current Jing Jiaren was more humane.
“She reminds me of your sister.” With that, Si Cheng left.
Jing Ruge’s expression changed when he heard Si Cheng call him Mr. Jing.
Back in the inner academy, he had the best relationship with Yin Mingjue and Si Cheng. They were good buddies and had once dreamed of crossing the world with their swords to protect the world. At that time, Jing Ruge was a courageous and determined young man, like Yin Mingjue.
However, ever since he became the head of the Jing family and become someone of power, he gradually got used to wearing a facade. He forgot how to express his true emotions.
He was getting more and more slick.
Si Cheng sounded respectful when he called him Mr. Jing, but he was actually filled with contempt and disdain.
Everyone present knew the relationship between Si Cheng and Jing Ruge. Therefore, when they saw Si Cheng leave and how Jing Ruge’s expression instantly became serious, they knew how big of a blow Si Cheng’s address of “Mr. Jing” was to Jing Ruge.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became awkward.
In the end, Prime Emperor Jiang Chen broke the silence. “I wonder if anyone has heard of a certain piece of news?”
“What news?” In order to liven up the atmosphere, a female director hurriedly replied to Prime Emperor Jiang Chen’s question. Jing Ruge also perked up slightly and looked at Prime Emperor Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen said, “According to what I know, a Fire Unicorn that has a human body and lives independently in the outside world appeared in the unicorn clan. This person’s name is Xiao Shu. He came from the Holy Spirit Continent and came from the same hometown as Prime Emperor Mo Xiao.”
Jing Ruge said thoughtfully, “No wonder Prime Emperor Mo Xiao insisted on partic.i.p.ating in the battle. Turns out he’s familiar with that Fire Unicorn. In that case, they should indeed help each other.”
Jing Ruge clearly didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem yet.
Jiang Chen frowned slightly and said, “Has everyone heard of the legend of the unicorn clan before?”
Everyone fell silent. For a moment, they were not sure which legend Jiang Chen was referring to. After Jing Ruge thought about it seriously, he said hesitantly, “Could it be that Prime Emperor Jiang Chen is referring to the legend that the Fire Unicorn can change the fate of the unicorn clan?”
