1891: Who is the other party?
“Just now, I roughly calculated a bit. Right now, we have about 2,210,000 masters who are able to fight, give or take a few.” Ye Hongchen quietly said. “But... the five skies through this 100,000 years process, it’s needless to say that their armies are sturdy and strong. Furthermore, each side’s prepared soldiers perhaps won’t be any lower than about 500,000,000!”
Everyone’s complexion remained relaxed. As they ate and drank, they actually weren’t the slightest bit surprised.
After all, they had lived this long. Other than the friendships between each other, this world didn’t really have anything that was worth them taking seriously.
“In other words, our 2.21 million soldiers must confront 2.5 billion troops!” Ye Hongchen’s voice was tranquil. “That means that each person must confront no fewer than 1200 people, give or take!”
Ye Hongchen faintly asked, “According to your judgement, brothers, what are our odds of success?”
The hall roared with the laughter of 25 people. “Our odds of success? A fart’s odds of success, it’s probably zero!”
“Hahahaha...”
Ye Hongchen laughed heartily. “Therefore...”
“Therefore this war must happen!” The tall and sturdy big guy said, “Actually, as everyone obviously knows, we don’t have an alternative to starting a war this time. We absolutely weren’t the ones to kill those people. However... the five skies turn a deaf ear to the actual facts, sticking to their own ideas. They’re maneuvering troops and having their soldiers pressure our borders. It’s clear that they’re using it as an excuse to bully us, how could we, how would we endure this!”
“Right! This matter is absolutely not favorable, we absolutely can’t endure this!”
Everyone’s emotions were stirred up.
“Since they determined that we were the ones who did it, then good, come! Come fight!” The tall and sturdy big guy said with an evil grin. “We might not be many, but we 2,000,000 people will exchange for a few hundred million casualties, we have this certainty!”
“And afterwards?” Big Mister Ye drank a mouthful of liquor and faintly asked.
“Afterwards, heh heh, those 2,000,000 people will be dead, won’t they still have us?” The tall and sturdy big guy’s laughter was like the clattering of iron. “With us right now, not including the boss, we still have 25 people here, and these 25 people are very good experts.”
“With our 25 experts, if we want to depart, could anyone block us?”
“Then precisely during the time we can freely move around, they’ll have to wait until all 25 of us die out... This Human Realm Upon Heavens...” The tall and sturdy big guy’s eyes looked almost strict. “I dare to assert! This world wouldn’t have anywhere left that wasn’t a tract of ruins!”
“Since they chose to use military force to speak, then we should give them the most extreme response! If you don’t want to let us have an easy time, then, Your Majesties the five Sky Kings shouldn’t be able to rest easy either! The Human Realm Upon Heavens is originally a world where the biggest fist wins the argument, and we’ll see in the end whose fist is even bigger, whose life is even more resolute, and whose heart is even more ferocious!”
The tall and sturdy big guy’s face broke open.
“Why can only you take action, if I and Saint Dragon Bright Phoenix together also take action...” Ye Hongchen faintly smiled. “Do you think we would be able to send this Human Realm Upon Heavens back into ancient times with one blow?”
“Why not? In any case, Big Brother Ye will be the final victor! The remaining people won’t be enough to have an opinion!”
The tall and sturdy big guy’s eyes were full of confidence. “Big Brother has always been unrivalled. He was before, and he still is now!”
Ye Hongchen faintly smiled once more. Facing 25 pairs of fervent eyes, he hadn’t yet responded to this comment of being unrivalled.
“Brother Guan, has your investigation into who was behind that chaotic situation turned up anything?” Ye Hongchen looked at Guan Shanyao.
Guan Shanyao shook his head. “I investigated carefully several times. From beginning to end, there weren’t any clear-cut traces. However, several of our people unexpectedly had the same strange feeling... It’s just... concerning the person who took action to manufacture our current situation, they’re apparently our acquaintances. But it’s exactly because they feel familiar that leaves us so baffled.”
“Because, anyone who is capable of making us old fogies feel familiar should be long dead, precisely turned to dust... Moreover, that long dead is more than a few tens of thousands of years...”
Guan Shanyao said, “Summing up all of our current information, this little brother feels that perhaps this time’s chaotic misfortune is actually a huge conspiracy, one that absolutely can’t be taken lightly!”
While Guan Shanyao was saying this, everyone was calmly and respectfully listening.
No one said anything to interfere.
Because everyone knew, he would certainly state the matter clearly and distinctly for everyone to understand.
“Since it’s someone dead that we’re familiar with, and you’re certain, specifically which people are they!?” Ye Hongchen’s eyes hung low, and he asked the question that everyone on the scene was wondering about.
“According to the traces that appeared at the scene, we considered and deduced several times. We more or less determined that there was Judging Heaven Hand, Zhou Boyu; Lining Cloud Knife, Li Zijing; Blood Soul Palm, Jiang Rufeng...” Guan Shanyao listed off seven people’s names successively in one breath. This landslide was enough to make the impassive faces of the listeners finally change color.
Because, these people that Guan Shanyao mentioned were without a doubt old men from 100,000 years ago.
Moreover, each one was a peak powerhouse!
Compared with everyone present, even if they were slightly weaker, it was at best only weaker by only half a chip, and that’s it. (TLN: chip like a poker chip)
But, these people all still had one common characteristic, and that was precisely that they had all died. Among the earliest, seventy or eighty thousand years ago news of their death had circulated across the world, and even the latest was around a thousand years ago.
In other words, these suspects were wholly people who were already conclusively dead!
Ye Hongchen squinted his eyes, faintly stating, “Should all be dead? It’s only should, that doesn’t mean at all that they are seriously dead. Those people are monsters like us. Only if we have personally killed them, or if we personally saw the corpse, how else could we make certain that they are seriously dead!”
“No matter how authentic the rumor in the Jianghu, in the end it’s still a rumor and it can only be trusted so far. This person who created this chaotic situation wouldn’t want to concentrate attention on themselves.”
Ju Weisheng said, “Out of these several people, I once exchanged blows with Blood Soul Palm Jiang Rufeng... That day’s battle remains fresh in my memory. That monarch, in his defeat, had suffered three heavy blows of my hand, but was still able to escape extremely quickly to where I couldn’t catch up with him. He was a really powerful enemy...”
“From this and that, I believe that nowadays, his cultivation level would perhaps still be extremely strong.”
“From Big Brother’s words, we can already conclude that it’s certain that these people faked their deaths and lived incognito.” Yue Youyou said. “Right now we don’t need to worry about the question of whether these people are alive or not. Right now, the question is, who are they currently serving? This is the crucial problem.”
“In any case, it’s not some person of the Five Great Sky Kings.” Qin Menghun blurted out.
“Isn’t that obvious? Who still doesn’t know that.” 24 people collectively rolled their eyes, and simultaneously announced.
“That said, after eliminating the Five Great Sky Kings, outside of a free roaming king... The other side’s strength is furthermore able to painstakingly fiddle with the wind and clouds of the Human Realm and make the strongest existences of the present age get angry.” Yun Duanlu wrinkled his brows. “Who is the other party?”
Asking this question, everyone was simultaneously stunned.
Furthermore still stronger?
In this world, where was there this kind of strength?

Author’s Note:
First matter, I recommend a book called <Black Card>, city surprising ability, brothers who like it may go have a look.
Second matter, this one episode of a big war should be RitF’s final big plot. I try very hard to write well, and this one book has five million words. Some are satisfied, some are unsatisfied, some have scolded, but when all is said and done everyone has traveled together on this journey and walked up until now.
Realms, this book, as far as I’m concerned, I’m not at all satisfied.
The particular reason, I’ll say again after the ending.
The remaining road is already not that long, let’s continue to walk along it together.
