Lin Muci coughed and said in a low voice.
"There's no need to fight to the death..."
Although she didn't know what cheat the world had given Ling Qianhe.
However, this guy, despite always being the villain, sometimes possessed a power that could even crush the Son of Destiny. Lin Muci felt it was better to be cautious with the man in front of her.
Don't go against Ling Qianhe.
Don't let her get dragged into it too.
However, she was curious about something else.
"What is the Assembly?"
The strong opponent, Ji Feng, glanced at the girl in front of him.
She had successfully differentiated and become an extremely rare female beast in the interstellar.
Not only that, but her face was truly pure and beautiful.
She had surpassed her predecessors and was now looking at him with a slight flicker of confusion in her eyes.
Ji Feng was silent for a moment and then spoke.
"The Assembly... is a place of interstellar judgment."
"When you were still a cub, you were imprisoned in Prison Eight, so you don't know what the Assembly is like, but the Assembly – this place, is very important."
"This universe is vast, possessing many different star systems. There is even a place called the Interstellar Battlefield, which is equivalent to a meat grinder, capable of annihilating entire star systems."
"And the universe is undergoing a process of entropy increase, a spontaneous progression from order to disorder."
"In this process, high-intensity conflicts and wars constantly occur within the star systems, and the consequences of these wars are extremely dire, leading the powerhouses of different star systems to finally unite and establish an Assembly system."
"The members of the Assembly are cosmic powerhouses, or recognized wise elders from various races, who attempt to find a greatest common divisor in the universe to reduce interstellar wars and prolong the survival of their races."
"However... the Assembly later, with so many years of development, became a behemoth. The Assembly and the Elder Council, when they possess too much authority, can also cause problems."
Ji Feng paused, as if recalling something.
A faint trace of mockery appeared in his eyes. Ji Feng's brows were furrowed, and he spoke with extreme coldness and indifference.
"The Assembly's authority is too great."
"So, they sometimes overstep their bounds."
"For example, this time, our Yun Jing Alliance and the Cang Hai Empire are in conflict, and they have sent envoys to mediate our differences. The day before I set out to find you in Prison Eight, their envoy found me, hoping to terminate this conflict."
Lin Muci listened with great interest. She couldn't help but look up and ask.
"And then?"
"What then?"
The man let out a cold laugh.
"And then?"
"Of course, it came to nothing."
"I directly sent their envoy back and told them not to appear before me again, or I wouldn't show mercy!"
His face was ice-cold, and he looked as if he could freeze into ice at any moment.
"They didn't know I had broken through to the triple-S realm at first. They actually..."
"They even tried to put on airs in front of me, which is utterly laughable, a bunch of arrogant bastards. With their methods, they want me to bow my head!"
His tone was extremely cold.
"They consider themselves superior, and with too many powerhouses within, they adopt an arrogant and condescending attitude towards the outside. They didn't expect that even ordinary star systems could produce powerhouses who are incomparable to those meticulously trained within their Assembly."
"However, most of the people they cultivate are conceited waste. If they truly encounter powerhouses who have fought their way through ordinary star systems, they are often destined to be wiped out."
His tone was dismissive and casual, and hearing him say this—
Lin Muci became even more curious.
"Are the interstellar wars very intense?"
"Do various star systems fight often?"
Ji Feng nodded.
"The universe is already in a state of disordered expansion. Forcing a balance is the most impractical thing to do."
"And the most terrifying is the Milky Way Battlefield, which is like a meat grinder... It is rumored that the true secrets of the universe are hidden within the Milky Way Battlefield, and only by winning there can one obtain more stellar energy."
"Every star has a limited lifespan – what is being contested in the Milky Way Battlefield is a chance for longer survival."
"When the people of the Assembly discovered the secret of the Milky Way Battlefield, they began to desperately scour the star systems for powerhouses, intending to forcibly throw all of them into the Milky Way Battlefield."
"That's why I find it strange that Ling Kuang could remain peacefully in Prison Eight."
"With his talent and power, he should be in the Milky Way Battlefield!"
"He should be able to contend for more stellar energy, right?"
"Such a powerful person, allowing him to stay in Prison Eight, is a terrible waste of talent."
"However, this also shows how chaotic the Assembly has become internally!"
"The internal conflicts within the Assembly are probably at the point of drawing swords."
As Ji Feng spoke, he couldn't help but worry.
Had he said too much?
And could the girl in front of him understand what he was saying?
The girl in front of him nodded, looking obedient, but her words revealed intelligence and wisdom!
"Then I understand."
"So, will you also be conscripted into the Milky Way Battlefield?"
Ji Feng was startled.
"Me?"
"They should want me to go. But if I go, who will protect you?"
Lin Muci thought for a moment and shook her head.
"But, since the Cang Hai Empire has filed a complaint, they should have other tricks prepared. Judging by their actions, it seems they are certain that you must go."
"The intensity of the Milky Way Battlefield is so high – if one dies there, won't everything be lost?"
"How do they force powerhouses to go? They must have their methods."
"Or... does every powerhouse have a reason they must go?"
Lin Muci looked at Ji Feng opposite her. She saw him frowning. Just as he was about to speak, their spaceship suddenly jolted with a clang, and the entire spaceship shook violently, feeling as if it couldn't maintain balance!
"Warning, warning!"
"Under attack..."
Ji Feng turned his head to look out the window. From the outside of the spaceship's hull, he saw a strange ship painted entirely black, and from the hull, intense lasers were being fired outwards, hitting their ship!
Ji Feng's expression turned grim!
"Space pirates?"
"They've really got the guts of a bear and the heart of a leopard to dare attack my ship!"
