NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1314: Peerless Among the Nation
"Oh?"
Long Qingtian's words piqued the interest of Wang Ye and the other three Imperial Lord Realm experts, their expressions somewhat surprised.
They hadn't expected Long Qingtian to be so confident in such a situation.
It must be known.
Nowadays, it is not merely a matter of Dragon Country.
But the entire Earth Spirit Star!
The Earth Spirit Star is hundreds or even thousands of times larger than the Dragon Country managed by Long Qingtian and Xu Heng back then!
Moreover, unlike Dragon Country, Earth Spirit Star has many cultivators, making management more complicated than before.
"Boss Long, you must understand, the biggest difference between Earth Spirit Star and Dragon Country, apart from geographical boundaries, is the presence of sects and many cultivators in Earth Spirit Star."
"I know this."
Seeing Long Qingtian step forward, Xu Heng did not remain in the background but also stepped forward, turned his gaze to Wang Ye, and greeted the other three Imperial Lord Realm experts.
Then, Xu Heng spoke to the Imperial Lord Realm experts:
"On Earth Star, I've watched as Earth Star gradually transitioned from an era of non-cultivation to an era of cultivation, during which, with King Emperor's help, I completed this transition smoothly. Hence, I believe that with me, Long Qingtian, and a few others managing Earth Spirit Star, there won't be any issues!"
As Xu Heng said this, his words resonated with strength, and Long Qingtian nodded slightly, agreeing with Xu Heng's statements.
"Alright then."
The confidence of Long Qingtian and Xu Heng brought a smile to Wang Ye's face.
Wang Ye actually felt that their approach was quite good.
Wang Ye was not worried about how chaotic their governance might become. He trusted their capabilities; even if they couldn't govern well, there wouldn't be significant problems.
Wang Ye's concern was whether they dared to govern.
"So, you two, tell me who you need by your side to help govern so that you can manage Earth Spirit Star successfully."
It could be seen that Long Qingtian and Xu Heng had already thought the matter through and had their chosen candidates.
As soon as Wang Ye spoke, Long Qingtian immediately answered:
"The master of the Divine Stone Workshop, the master of the Heavenly Secret Sect, and..."
Soon.
Long Qingtian and Xu Heng mentioned many names.
Some of the names were unknown to Wang Ye, surprising him.
When Wang Ye glanced at Wang Yifeng and saw no surprise in his expression, Wang Ye realized these might be acquaintances of Wang Yifeng, Xu Heng, and Long Qingtian.
After Xu Heng and Long Qingtian finished speaking, Wang Ye turned to Ying, Shi Heng, and Wang Yifeng, asking them, "Do you have any opinions on the people they've chosen?"
"I have no objections."
Wang Yifeng, immersed in myriad paths and integrated with them, knew the most people on Earth Spirit Star. He was familiar with Long Qingtian and Xu Heng's statements.
Therefore, Wang Yifeng expressed his opinion first, agreeing with them.
Ying also chimed in, "Back when Shi Heng and I were in the Boundless Realm, supervising everything on Earth Spirit Star, we've heard of these individuals, and they're all reliable in governance."
Though they claimed to oversee everything on Earth Spirit Star, in reality, they were simply idle in the Boundless Realm, looking down to see if anything noteworthy was happening.
Wang Ye inwardly chuckled.
"Alright."
Wang Ye concluded, "Since the other three Imperial Lords have no objections, I have no objections either. From now on, the governance of Earth Spirit Star will be led by you. Also, figure out how to divide and organize the governance of Earth Spirit Star quickly."
"Certainly."
Long Qingtian spoke.
"Moreover."
Long Qingtian glanced at Wang Ye, Shi Heng, Ying, and Wang Yifeng, seemingly hesitant about the next topic.
Wang Ye noticed Long Qingtian's thoughts and said to him, "Boss Long, if you have something to discuss, just say it. We're about to deal with major management issues on Earth Spirit Star. If you hesitate to speak, there won't be a way to truly manage Earth Spirit Star effectively."
"Alright."
Long Qingtian then continued, "Honestly, I don't know who among you wants to venture into the chaos or who wishes to stay, but on Earth Spirit Star, at least one Imperial Lord Realm expert must remain."
"Firstly, if chaos brings enemy attacks, one Imperial Lord Realm expert should be able to handle it. Secondly, all previous rules on Earth Spirit Star are about to undergo massive changes, during which many will resist; at that moment, a power to suppress all opposition will be needed."
"And for that, Imperial Lord Realm strength is naturally most suitable."
After Long Qingtian said this, he stopped speaking.
He knew this involved decisions about the departures and remains of the four Imperial Lord Realm experts.
That's why he initially hesitated to speak.
Wang Ye remained silent for a while, then looked at the other three, "We'll definitely need to solve this issue, who will go, and who will stay."
"Personally, although I want to stay on Earth Spirit Star and spend time with Fang Feifei and Lin Shuang'er, I dislike relinquishing control of my fate to others. I want to strengthen myself, so when faced with issues, I won't just stand by, feeling powerless."
"Thus..."
Wang Ye paused, "I will be heading into the chaos."
Ying also said, "I've stayed on Earth Spirit Star for too long. Although my initial duty was to protect Earth Spirit Star, acting at the first sign of trouble, during my time here, I've exhausted all my insights into the path."
"Next, if I wish to enhance my strength, I must venture out. Moreover, the Lord of the Universe and I, though superiors and subordinates, are more friends. Now that the Lord of the Universe faces challenges, I must go into the chaos; even if my lone strength can't save the Lord, I hope to contribute."
Momentarily, those who chose to leave were already half.
