Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Mo Xuan’s affirmative answer caused Wen Yu’s eyes to narrow.

The plan was successful... My intervention in the alliance between Earth’s military and the natives of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes—this was a decision I made the instant I learned of my fake identity! The poor haul from the Ling Yun City warehouse only strengthened my resolve to intervene. No skills? No problem, the Earth’s military has plenty! I refuse to believe that now, as the most powerful scion in the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, I can’t squeeze some benefits out of the military. I’ve been coveting that SSS-Class light-type skill Lin Haifeng promised me for a while now!

「...」

As Wen Yu pondered, the reception hall once again fell into silence.

After a moment, Wen Yu lifted his head, looked directly at Mo Xuan, and said calmly, ”Let’s go. Lord Mo, accompany me to meet this otherworldly visitor. The others may leave.”

Accompanied by a chorus of ”Your subordinate takes his leave,” Wen Yu leisurely rose and started towards the exit.

Mo Xuan, however, seemed to offer a reminder.

”Young Master, aren’t you planning to inspect the supplies in the warehouse?”

Hearing Mo Xuan’s reminder, Wen Yu calmly replied, ”Just bring the items I mentioned earlier directly to where the otherworldly visitor is.”

”Yes, Young Master.”

After Mo Xuan respectfully received the orders and instructed his subordinates to handle these minor issues, he once again led Wen Yu towards his office.

「...」

During his conversation with Mo Xuan, Wen Yu had already decided how he should present himself to Tang Haofei and the military representatives.

After some brief thought, I quickly made up my mind. Rather than hiding and manipulating the alliance’s direction from behind Mo Xuan, it’s better to step out openly and tell Tang Haofei and the entire Cathay military: I’m the big shot now! If you want to have a good time in the Heavenly Palace, you’d better suck up to me properly! Since no one can expose my identity, and with the Heavenly Palace’s strongest—Heavenly Dao—to cover for me, so what if the military knows my true identity? Unless Lin Haifeng has lost his mind, he definitely wouldn’t risk turning the native forces of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes against him just to expose me. Of course, compromises and exchanges of benefits are inevitable. For instance, there’s some technology I don’t particularly care for. In that case, what would it matter if I gave it to the military for free? Naturally, ’for free’ is just a manner of speaking. Taking ’my things’ for nothing? Impossible! And the Earth’s military might even prefer to see an Earthling like me holding the reins of power in the Universe of Immortals and Heroes, rather than allying with its unfamiliar native inhabitants!
