Chapter 1540: Chapter 1540: The Tianhe Emperor Admits Defeat

The Tianhe Emperor gave a bitter laugh, “If I give up the Heavenly Core now, is it still in time?”

Zhong Zhichang’s gaze suddenly turned sharp, “Give up? How would Your Majesty give up? Throw it into space, hand it to the Mother of Deep Red? Once the Crimson Domain completes its evolution, it will be a disaster for all life. Moreover, seeking fortune through danger, wanting to become the backbone of the future federation, wanting to achieve racial evolution, how could that be possible without paying any price? As long as we defeat the Crimson Domain, Celestial Harmony Star’s advancement will face no further obstacles.”

The Tianhe Emperor said coldly, “Won’t the Dragon Clan and the Sky Horse Clan obstruct me either?”

Zhong Zhichang replied solemnly, “Since I’m here, I come with the sincerity of the two principal seats. The Crimson Domain is our common enemy. The federation’s development, the federation’s future, are matters that will only come after we have defeated the Crimson Domain. What we need now is unity. This is also one reason why we offer the Heavenly Core. We hope that everyone can stand on a united front. The principal seat has already been mobilizing the grand army; wherever the Crimson Domain appears, we will concentrate all our efforts to respond.”

The Tianhe Emperor closed his eyes. He knew he had lost, and it was no unjust loss. This was a trap set by the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan in unison. A trap from which he couldn’t possibly extricate himself.

“I understand. Rest assured, Second Seat, my clan will definitely do our utmost. If the Crimson Domain appears here, we only hope the federation will help us to resist fully. After overcoming this difficulty, the Celestial Harmony Clan is willing to contribute to the federation, becoming a loyal supporter of the federation.”

Zhong Zhichang showed a slight smile, “This is the best choice. The development of the federation is truly the bright future for all our races.”

In his heart, he couldn’t help but secretly admire this Tianhe Emperor. Knowing full well that he had been plotted against, and that even his entire race was plotted against, he managed to adjust his mindset in such a short time. This Tianhe Emperor is indeed a true formidable hero. He didn’t flare up in anger because of the plot and break with us on the spot. Instead, at this moment, he expressed that the Celestial Harmony Clan is willing to submit to the Dragon Horse Federation. He had acknowledged defeat. When the race possibly faces the threat of annihilation, he made the most correct choice in the shortest time.

The Tianhe Emperor’s decision was definitely a painful one. He worked hard to develop the Celestial Harmony Clan, hoping that one day they could stand equal to the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan. But could the Celestial Harmony Clan withstand the Crimson Domain, which even the Dragon Clan and the Sky Horse Clan couldn’t confidently resist, based solely on their own strength?

As long as the Dragon Clan and the Sky Horse Clan stand by and watch, if the Crimson Domain comes, it will be a catastrophe. Therefore, he had no other choice but to rely on the full rescue of the Dragon Horse Federation; only then would the race have a chance to continue. Compared to the continuation of the race, everything else has become unimportant.

Too ruthless, the Dragon Clan and the Sky Horse Clan are truly too ruthless! They have directly pushed the Celestial Harmony Clan to the edge of a cliff.

“I also ask the Second Seat to speak kindly of us. Our Celestial Harmony Clan is also a part of the federation.” The Tianhe Emperor gave Zhong Zhichang a deep bow.

After conceding, his mindset underwent some changes, and now nothing is more important than overcoming this current crisis.

Zhong Zhichang sighed softly and said, “The Celestial Harmony Clan has always been one of the most important races in the federation and an essential part of its development. If we want to give up on the Celestial Harmony Clan, I would not have come today. Please rest assured, Your Majesty. If the Crimson Domain truly appears here, we will definitely go all out to rescue. And here on Celestial Harmony Star, I ask that Your Majesty quickly organize all forces and prepare for war. The more prepared we are, the smaller the losses will be.”

If he had a choice, the Tianhe Emperor really wanted to immediately order these Dragon Knights to be killed here and now!

These people not only schemed against his entire race but also openly came to deliver the news—how sinister and insulting is that? However, now he truly has no other way.

Even if the Celestial Harmony Clan is extremely prepared, using all its strength might not be enough to keep these Dragon Knights, even if they could, so what? Killing them in a moment of pleasure, what about the Crimson Domain which follows right after?

Neither he nor the Tianhe Prime Minister had ever thought in this direction before, truly never expected the Dragon Clan would deal with them in such a manner.

Years of accumulation, years of patience and effort, at this moment, all seemed to turn to naught. There was no longer a force that could remain hidden, and it’s uncertain whether they could withstand the invasion from the Crimson Domain.

He had a mind to take out the Heavenly Core and return it to the Dragon Clan, but would the Dragon Clan accept it now? Giving the Heavenly Core to the Crimson Domain? That’s like drinking poison to quench thirst, Zhong Zhichang was right, if the Crimson Domain received the Heavenly Core and ascended to the Divine Realm, it would be a disaster for all races, including the Celestial Harmony Clan. Moreover, why did this Second Seat come to Celestial Harmony Star at this time? A significant reason is likely to monitor him!

The intense anger gradually transformed into a strong sense of powerlessness, with no means to address the current situation. He couldn’t think of any way to spare the Celestial Harmony Clan from the impending disaster.

When did the Dragon and Sky Horse Clans become so calculative? At this moment, for the Celestial Harmony Clan, there seemed to be no way except to face the impending disaster.

Of course, he harbored a slim hope in his heart, what if the Crimson Domain shifts its target to Sky Horse Star or Sky Dragon Planet? But will the Crimson Domain do that? He already knew the answer in his heart. Sky Horse Star and Sky Dragon Planet have been developed by the two great clans over the years, with deep foundations and strong races supporting them. The two planets can also transmit to each other, and they can at any time send their vital forces to support each other. Together, they can instantly concentrate the power of both clans to resist any invasion.

The idea of grabbing the soft one is apparent to everyone! Moreover, the fact that they won the bid on the Heavenly Core at the Dragon Horse Grand Auction is already a well-known fact across the galaxy.

Zhong Zhichang looked at the uncertain expression on the face of the Tianhe Emperor and said solemnly, “Your Majesty should not feel overwhelmed. When faced with issues, the first thing we need to do is resolve them. Complaining and blaming bear no significance.”

To be honest, at this moment, this Secondary Dragon Leader’s feelings are somewhat mixed, with a hint of pleasure.

Since the Celestial Harmony Star has gradually grown stronger, this Tianhe Emperor has always been non-cooperative with the commands of the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan. The Tianhe Emperor himself has never left the domain of Celestial Harmony Star and has never attended the important meetings convened by the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan.

As the Celestial Harmony Clan developed, the Tianhe Emperor’s influence began to extend to more areas. By leveraging the Celestial Harmony Clan’s strong management ability, this race was rapidly rising; otherwise, they wouldn’t have the confidence to become the backbone of opposition against the formation of the Dragon Horse Federation.

Even towards these Dragon Knights, the Tianhe Emperor has always maintained a rather indifferent attitude. He had just visited a few days ago.

While feeling a bit pleased, Zhong Zhichang couldn’t help but secretly admire this plan, not admiring anything else, but the plan itself. He knew with the approach of the Sky Dragon Assembly, they could never come up with such a plan. It was the inclusion of Lan that made such a perfect plan achievable. To strike an opponent, eliminate opponents, and even send them to face the upcoming war, becoming the chief battlefield. Not to mention significantly reducing their losses but also substantially diminishing or destroying the original potential threat.

Of course, Lan’s plan did not specifically target Celestial Harmony Star, but “her” plan was already extremely detailed. What was left for these Dragon Clan Leaders to do was merely to choose a suitable target. That project plan, Zhong Zhichang still remembers how he felt when he first saw it: clearly organized, with distinct logical thinking, and all potential situations were thoroughly addressed, including clear reasons for each.
