Chapter 403: Things That Can't Be Achieved Technically
"What does that prove?" Although Xiao Ao was shocked, he still raised a point. This kind of thing, maybe it's something you guys set up beforehand?
"Just, just stop; technically, we can do that too."
"Yes!"
Many heads of state nodded in agreement with Xiao Ao's words.
"In that case, why don't you give it a try? See if you can achieve it technically." Tang Rao sneered, and in the next moment, his fingers suddenly clenched.
The missile bizarrely deformed and then, it blasted apart completely.
A crimson tongue of flame and brutal force instantly engulfed everything.
"Open!" Tang Rao lightly pushed out his palm, catching the explosion in his hand as if gripping it.
The explosion abruptly halted, and the mad rush of force simply froze, the mass of exploded flame as if immobilized by Tang Rao halfway through.
"On a technical level, can you do this?" Tang Rao turned around, looking at a group of heads of state who were completely stunned.
"I won't deny the excellence of Blue Star Technology, but as for destructive power, this level is far from sufficient. Even nuclear weapons pose no threat to people like us," Tang Rao proudly stated, then, with a snap of his right fingers.
With a snap.
In the next moment, the flame from the exploded missile vanished abruptly, turning directly into smoke and disappearing.
"Any other questions? If not, I'll send you back. If there are any more, I'm sorry, but for those who don't obey, I'm only responsible for bringing them here, not for taking them back." Tang Rao had already given them face, and now, of course, he needed to flaunt a little, or else they really might think they are indispensable.
Just responsible for bringing them here, not taking them back…
Damn, how would they get back without Tang Rao?
"I agree." Xiao Ao finally compromised, as it seemed, there was no other choice.
Hearing Xiao Ao agree, a smile finally appeared on Tang Rao's face.
Honestly, he doesn't detest Xiao Ao's manner of fighting for advantages, as all under heaven hustle for benefits. If a head of state can't even strive for their country's benefits, then they aren't really much.
"Isn't this good now? Don't worry, the person you sent will be the deputy director; is that okay now?" Tang Rao said.
The title of deputy director doesn't really matter much, what could a deputy do?
After all, he would command everything.
Giving Xiao Ao a bit of face didn't matter much.
"Haha, Mr. Tang Rao is truly a straightforward man, then let's pleasantly agree to this," Xiao Ao immediately smiled contently, as allies like being respected and given face.
Actually, Xiao Ao knew well that the so-called deputy director role was insignificant, but it sounded good enough when spoken.
Now that Xiao Ao had agreed, the other heads of state didn't babble further; each of them also agreed.
…
Without wasting words, Tang Rao directly sent these heads of state back to the previous conference room, then continued his relentless journey to the Moon.
His plan was to make the Moon a forward base.
Certainly, people from the Nine Realms and Seventy-two Domains couldn't just enter Blue Star directly; a defensive star was necessary.
"How have you all completed the tasks given to you?" Tang Rao roared lowly, his voice suddenly spreading to every corner of the Moon.
Soon, figures appeared in front of Tang Rao, including Zhang Fengshuo and fifty others.
"Tang… Boss, all tasks have been completed," said Zhang Fengshuo. He was still somewhat uncomfortable with calling him Boss Tang.
"Very good," Tang Rao nodded. "Take this, these are some materials from Blue Star. Zhang Fengshuo, you take thirty people back and give them to Mei Fanghua. Remember, any movements from Mei Fanghua, report back to me timely."
"Why only take thirty people?" Zhang Fengshuo asked.
"The remaining twenty people, just say they have lost their traces." Tang Rao said, "What do you think Mei Fanghua would think if you were to send out fifty people and all fifty returned?"
"Heh, that makes sense." Zhang Fengshuo chuckled.
"Alright, be smart when you're back by Mei Fanghua's side, don't expose us. I am relying on you to gather information, understand?" Tang Rao patted Zhang Fengshuo's shoulder as he spoke.
"Got it, I understand!" Zhang Fengshuo smiled and nodded, then bid farewell to Tang Rao and returned to the Seventy-two Domains of the Nine Realms.
"You few, I'm giving you several missions, there will be rewards upon completion."
"Boss Tang, what kind of rewards?"
"Do you like Spiritual Techniques? Fancy some high-grade Spiritual Medicine? Hmm, I'm much more generous than that shameless woman Mei Fanghua. Work hard, and I guarantee you'll be well taken care of." Tang Rao declared.
The crowd cheered; indeed, Tang Rao was far better than Mei Fanghua.
And Tang Rao was more easy-going, unlike following Mei Fanghua, where they had to be constantly on edge.
...
"Turns out, that azure blue planet is called Blue Star, really now, why not call it Blue Star or Water Sphere, it doesn't even fit." Within the Central Emperor Realm, Mei Fanghua muttered to herself while looking at the information about Blue Star brought back by Zhang Fengshuo and the others.
"Very good, you've done well." Mei Fanghua looked at Zhang Fengshuo and the others.
"This is what we should do." Zhang Fengshuo responded.
"Here are your rewards, take them." Mei Fanghua tossed out some Spirit Stones.
A total of sixty, two for each person.
Although Zhang Fengshuo and the others verbally expressed their thanks, they were already grumbling internally.
Dammit, what kind of person is this, two Spirit Stones? Aren't we cultivators at the Mahayana Realm, does she think we're beggars?
With this comparison, indeed Boss Tang is much better.
"Alright, you may leave now." Mei Fanghua waved her hand.
"Hold on a moment." Zhang Fengshuo and the others hadn't left yet when Bai Ze suddenly appeared in the hall, wearing a white mask and a white robe.
"Mr. Bai Ze." Mei Fanghua greeted.
Bai Ze nodded and then looked at Zhang Fengshuo and the others.
"Why have only thirty of you returned? What about the other twenty?" Bai Ze asked.
"We're not sure; we lost contact with the other twenty people."
"Lost contact?" Bai Ze repeated, seemingly pondering something.
"Do you have their soul jade scrolls?" Bai Ze looked at Mei Fanghua.
Mei Fanghua shook her head, those Mahayana Realm scraps, who would want their soul jade scrolls, they were all unimportant characters.
"One of them, I do have, the soul jade scroll is intact, but just can't be contacted." Zhang Fengshuo said.
Bai Ze hummed, and took a few steps.
"These twenty people, I'm afraid they're under Tang Rao's control." Bai Ze suddenly said.
Mei Fanghua immediately nodded, the people aren't dead but can't be contacted, likely they've been captured by Tang Rao.
But this was normal, out of fifty people, Tang Rao was bound to discover some.
"You, you didn't encounter Tang Rao?" Bai Ze asked Zhang Fengshuo and the others, his tone slightly chilling.
Zhang Fengshuo and the others were inwardly startled, Bai Ze was a significant figure, could he be harboring suspicions?
