Chapter 2626: The Art of Lies

Chapter 2628: The Art of Lies

Wuying Qi and Long Yangjun both put on the expression of disbelief after hearing what Li Yao said.

“What… What are you talking about?”

Long Yangjun quickly blinked. “How on earth am I trapping His Majesty? Stop slandering me!”

“It’s very simple. You are directly attacking His Majesty’s beliefs with such vicious moves, hoping to sabotage His Majesty’s cause!”

Li Yao said coldly, “It must be noted that His Majesty’s ‘Next Sun Plan’ is founded on two premises. One is the technologies of enlightenment. The massive, powerful brainwashing technologies are advanced and absolutely reliable. Nobody can possibly resist it.

“The second premise is, of course, His Majesty’s wisdom, vision, and accurate calculation on all the forces in the universe and every procedure in the plan. Not any unexpected factor can possibly escape His Majesty’s attention!”

“Those two premises are exactly the foundation of His Majesty’s belief too. It is because His Majesty believes in the Next Sun Plan and his wisdom that he is empowered to push the Next Sun Plan as the forever highest commander of the civilization of mankind!

“Everything that His Majesty does is not for his selfish interests but for the advancement of the civilization of mankind. Therefore, His Majesty’s belief must be indestructible and cannot tolerate the slightest suspicion.

“All in all, only if His Majesty believes in it himself can he influence hundreds of thousands of people with his firm and scorching faith using the enhancement of the sun. If His Majesty doesn’t believe it himself, how can he ‘brainwash’ anybody else?

“Therefore, if His Majesty truly believes in himself, his technology of enlightenment would be invincible, and he would have all the procedures under his control accurately. Then, how could I betray him, and why would I betray him? It must be noted that I just had a sincere conversation with His Majesty and listened to His Majesty’s reasoning for hours. If His Majesty cannot talk me into returning from the lost journey, wouldn’t the so-called ‘enlightenment’ be the greatest joke?

“If His Majesty confiscates my Colossus despite knowing that there is absolutely no way that I would revolt, wouldn’t that be highly unnecessary and redundant?”

Long Yangjun was dumbfounded for a long time by what he said.

Wuying Qi was also deep in thought, with ripples spreading out of his eyes.

Both Cultivators and Immortal Cultivators needed the support of strong beliefs when they reached high levels. Even if Wuying Qi was a lunatic, he was still a lunatic with dreams, ambitions, and beliefs.

Such extremists often regarded their beliefs more important than anything and would not twist or change them easily.

“If His Majesty really confiscates our Colossi, it would imply two things. Firstly, His Majesty is suspicious about his enlightenment technology and his ability to mass control. Secondly, His Majesty is scared of us if we have the Heavenly Crystal and the Arsonist. Tell me about it, which of the two things can possibly be true?”

Li Yao continued sneering, “If His Majesty is really fooled and accepts our Colossi, two tiny cracks would appear on His Majesty’s indestructible beliefs. There would be a fatal flaw in His Majesty’s perfect mind.

“Perhaps the cracks would not lead to severe consequences under normal circumstances.

“However, don’t forget that His Majesty is about to inculcate his ultimate path into everybody in the Empyreal Terminus Sector through the Gold Crystal Pyramid.

“I believe that, even though His Majesty is the strongest in the entire universe, and His Majesty has the enhancement of the Gold Crystal Pyramid and the sun, it would still be a heavy burden on his spiritual energy and his soul power in order to spread his beliefs into the brains of hundreds of thousands of hostile soldiers, right?

“At such a critical moment when the soul is tested, you are cracking His Majesty’s beliefs. That will be like cracking a dam in the time of a flood, which may result in a total collapse!

“By then, not only will His Majesty’s soul be seriously damaged, but the cracks of self-suspicion may also get spread to the brains of all the hostile soldiers along with His Majesty’s disordered brainwaves. Then, how can they be enlightened and convinced of His Majesty’s gloriousness and invincibility?

“Therefore, am I wrong to say that you dug a pit and tried to set His Majesty up? Huh?”

His arms akimbo, Li Yao glared at and lambasted Long Yangjun.

Long Yangjun was overwhelmed. “That’s not what I meant. I—”

“Stop talking. That’s exactly what you meant!”

Li Yao interrupted her defense ruthlessly. “Anybody with the slightest wisdom could realize that there is no way that I would betray His Majesty, because the situation right now is too messy to be resolved by stopping His Majesty’s plan or, god forbid, killing His Majesty.

“We are far weaker than His Majesty and cannot hurt His Majesty at all, but even if something happens to His Majesty, so what? What next? It must be noted that the greatest enemies right now are still the ace fleets of the four families as well as the main force of the Covenant Alliance that hasn’t shown up yet!

“I am absolutely incapable of settling the chaos in the capital, and His Majesty is the only person who can. Whatever stance I may have, do I have a second option other than submitting to His Majesty? I am a Cultivator, not a cuckoo who doesn’t consider the consequences of my action!”

Long Yangjun blushed hard under Li Yao’s barrage. It was not until a long time later that she finally said, “Unless—”

“Unless I have a way to settle the mess in the capital after committing regicide, right? But how is it possible?”

Li Yao snorted and eyed Long Yangjun as if she were an idiot. “Unless I have a way to hijack part of the crystal cameras and crystal processors here and perform a live stream to Lei Chenghu who is in the Seven Seas Space Zone despite the double blockades of the reformists and the four families so that he can realize what is going on in the capital.

“Unless Lei Chenghu has finished Yun Xuefeng, Song Yushi, and the eight Adamantine Fleets in unbelievable ways, subduing all the Adamantine Super Arsenal Warships as well as the starships of the warlords!

“Well, it’s not going to work out even so, because His Majesty has already learned of Lei Chenghu’s insubordination. Therefore, when Lei Chenghu sends a request for reinforcements to the capital, His Majesty will definitely not respond with the signals of the space gate. Without the space gate, how is Lei Chenghu’s fleet going to jump over in an organized manner? He’ll be committing suicide if the starships jump over one by one!

“Therefore, my scheme will only work out if an elite battle squad has already secretly snuck into the capital and set up ambushes near a space gate, and it can hijack the space gate at the critical moment without alarming anybody, opening the space gate to the Seven Seas Space Zone.

“Right, above all the ‘unless’, there is still another major ‘unless’, which is that I have mastered a certain brilliant way of mental immunity that prevented me from His Majesty’s enlightenment!

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, so many crucial factors to the victory have all happened? Is it really possible? Even the lousiest mind could’ve come up with better lies!

“You knew everything clearly, and yet you poured dirty water on me and fabricated such ridiculous things to slander me. You are insulting my—no, you are insulting His Majesty’s wisdom! It doesn’t matter if you slander me, but it is too vicious of you when you try to shake His Majesty’s beliefs. You should be executed!”

“You—”

Her body shivering in fury, Long Yangjun shouted, “Your Majesty, you must not listen to the random talks of this scoundrel. There’s no way that I do not believe in Your Majesty’s ‘enlightenment’. I’m only hoping that Your Majesty’s plan can be safer!”

“Are you suggesting that His Majesty’s plan would not be safe if we have the Colossi in our hands?”

Li Yao sneered, “His Majesty’s magnificent plan that has been worked on for a hundred years can be sabotaged by two Colossi?”

Wuying Qi was silent. The brilliance in his eyes was bouncing like fire in a wild wind.

“Of course—”

Li Yao offered to give the Cosmos Ring that stored the Arsonist to Wuying Qi as he said, “Now that you have vilified me again and again, in order to prove my loyalty, I would like to ask His Majesty to protect my Colossus for me. Does it really matter? I believe that His Majesty will do me justice!”

Long Yangjun scorned and presented her own Cosmos Ring too.

The two of them glared at each other and then looked at Wuying Qi’s hands earnestly.

Wuying Qi narrowed his eyes and stared at the Cosmos Rings in their hands. Pondering for a long time, he still took over the two Cosmos Rings.

Li Yao and Long Yangjun gritted their teeth tightly. Under the astonishing self-control, their biophysical parameters did not change much, but their pupils and their nostrils were widened by 5% at the same time.

Holding the two Cosmos Rings in his hands, Wuying Qi filled them with spiritual energy and made them chase after each other like two minor shooting stars. While playing with them casually, he observed Li Yao and Long Yangjun, as if he were trying to dig out their hearts and see what was on them.

In the end, he smiled and absorbed the two Cosmos Rings back into his palm. Clenching his fist, he tossed the Cosmos Rings back to the two of them.

“A gentleman does not take somebody else’s love. The whole universe is my possession. Why would I seize two Colossi that belong to you?”

His hands on his back, Wuying Qi said casually with the most intense confidence beaming out of his eyes, “Li Yao is right. There can’t possibly be any flaw in my deduction. The Next Sun Plan is the only solution to save the Imperium and the civilization of mankind. Whatever stance you may have, you should support me without any reservation!

“The technologies of enlightenment cannot be resolved so easily. So, neither Li Yao nor Long Yangjun can betray me.

“If I cannot even trust Li Yao who has been enlightened, and I have to control you by depriving you of your beliefs, how can I have the face to carry out the Next Sun Plan, and where can I possibly keep my beliefs?

“Take back the Cosmos Rings that store your Colossi. Look, the sky is already open, and we’re about to be embraced by sunshine. Now, enter the Gold Crystal Pyramid with me and appreciate the most glorious sun!”
