Li An sensed the heightened emotion in Xiao Zhantian's voice when he discussed protecting humanity, as if this was the sole meaning of his life."I'll contact the district chiefs now; I'll definitely resolve this.""You two go train first."Li An patted the two on the shoulders and left the office.The Demon Realm was about to launch a full-scale offensive against the Third Great Wall.In the entire human realm, only one person could easily resolve this problem.Li An found Shuangxue, who was currently advancing in her cultivation level."What realm are you at?""Eighth realm, 55% progress."Li An was shocked.Too fast.Shuangxue's talent allowed her to automatically convert all the ice in the world into cultivation power. Combined with the pills provided by Ke Xiu, her progress was undoubtedly the fastest in the contemporary era.More than half a year ago, in the Alliance Realm, she was only at the late seventh realm; now she was already at the mid-eighth realm."Then, is it about time to start taking Elemental Ascension Pills?""About time." Shuangxue nodded slightly.After consuming a set of pills, she reached the ninth realm, though the absorption would take a considerable amount of time.Li An's realm was already low; in his haste to break through, he had already consumed that set of pills, reaching the eighth realm. Now, more than half a year later, he was only at 30% of the eighth realm in all three realms.Shuang Xue had finished the pills and reached the ninth realm, while Li An was more than 70% behind her in progress.There was no way around it; Li An had far too many things to cultivate, so his realm inevitably lagged behind. Fortunately, his Dao Fruit was of a high level, more than enough to compensate for the lack of realm advancement.Then, the two discussed serious matters."Xiao Zhantian's abilities are heaven-defying; he can alter biological fields. Lin He led him directly to the Demon Realm's military fortress and witnessed the enemy's plot.""The Heng Clan, with their humanoid mechanical army, has tens of thousands in the fourth fortress, and there should be more in the other fifteen. Combined with the Demon Realm's own forces, they are more than capable of launching a full-scale attack on us during the military parade.""Contact your father-in-law.""Okay." Shuang Xue's expression turned solemn, and she immediately contacted Shuang Han.The communication was quickly established. Shuang Han, who had just greeted his daughter with a smile, was immediately struck by Li An's voice, and his old face fell."Ahem, Little Li, what is it?""What? The Heng Clan will assist the Demon Realm in launching a full-scale attack on the human race during the military parade? Because it's a humanoid mechanical army, the energy fluctuations are well hidden.""Where's the evidence?"Where's the evidence?"Upon hearing these three words, Li An frowned and said, "My subordinate witnessed it with his own eyes."Shuang Han remained calm as a mountain, saying indifferently, "So you're telling the whole world that you have a subordinate who can freely enter and leave the Demon Realm's military fortress?"Li An's heart skipped a beat.The meaning behind these words was profound.Shuang Han most likely knew Xiao Zhantian's true identity.If she used Xiao Zhantian's memories as evidence, Xiao Zhantian would inevitably become the target of public criticism.The human race was not stable internally.He came here to develop stealthily.To put him in the spotlight now would be putting the cart before the horse.But…“Grand Marshal, you don’t need evidence to issue military orders, do you?” Shuanghan countered. “Right now, the entire Third Great Wall is anticipating the military parade. If I suddenly order its cancellation, firstly, it will severely damage morale.”“Secondly, if I do that, the Demon Realm won’t attack.”“My orders will become inexplicable.” Shuanghan’s calm words sent chills down Li An’s spine.He continued, “Li An, you’ve grown up.”“You know, this world is complex, and even the Grand Marshal can’t do whatever he wants.”“Remember this!”“The person sitting in the Grand Marshal’s position is always focused on the farthest, largest battlefield, and seeks ultimate victory!”“That’s all I have to say. I believe you understand.”“Beep beep beep…” Communication was lost.Shuangxue frowned, looking at Li An's incredulous face. "My father rejected your proposal?" she asked.Li An stared blankly ahead for a long time before finally snapping out of it.He shook his head. "It's alright, no need to contact my father-in-law again.""I understand what he means."Throughout the entire conversation, the Grand Marshal's tone remained remarkably calm.So calm, as if he already knew what Li An was going to say, what would happen at the Third Great Wall.He knew everything, yet did nothing. The final explanation was that the person in this position sought ultimate victory.For this ultimate victory, I can do nothing.Li An felt his head was spinning. He said to Shuangxue, "Hurry up and absorb the Ascension Pill.""Perhaps the only ones who can move are us." Shuangxue's brows furrowed; she was intelligent enough to immediately understand Li An's meaning.Then, Li An left the underground training room and headed towards his office, thinking as he walked.Lin He and Xiao Zhantian both noticed Li An's pessimistic expression.Xiao Zhantian's body stiffened, and he stepped forward to ask, "Brother, what's wrong?"Li An lowered his head and said, "The military parade will be held as scheduled in seven days, without any changes.""Ah!?" Xiao Zhantian's mouth gaped open, his pupils widened, and he said, "Why...why?""I don't understand.""Or is there...there are people from the Demon Realm above? Is there a traitor suppressing your advice!?"Li An pointed at Xiao Zhantian and said, "Calm down first, don't jump to conclusions.""Sit down, both of you, and listen to me."In the office.The three sat in a triangle, Li An still deep in thought, the room silent.Meanwhile.In the world beyond, in the gray shadows.France Bai met with Li Wuce again."My lord, the army is ready! Heng Shi personally led the charge, a hundred thousand mechanical troops!"His tone was full of shock.How terrifying the Celestial Realm is!A hundred thousand mechanical soldiers of the Upper Three Realms.Inhuman.No need for management, no need for food, no need for shelter, only a sufficient supply of energy!Once war begins, with the simple press of a button, the hundred thousand soldiers will swarm like locusts, wreaking havoc with merciless slaughter.Ethics, morality, the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled—none of these can sway their will to kill, because they are not mortal beings!The more you think about it, the more terrifying it becomes!An army without any flaws!The most perfect army!This is the Celestial Realm!The power unleashed with a casual wave of the hand can bring immense shock to the mortal world! Li Wuce asked expressionlessly, "And then? What do you want with me?"Fran Bai chuckled, "As you know, several God-level beings from the Human Realm will definitely be watching the military parade!""You can't let these God-level beings interfere in the battlefield."Li Wuce said calmly, "All the God-level beings will gather in 3-1; no High-level God-level beings will appear.""Shuang Han won't come either; he'll continue to oversee War Zone 1-1.""War Zones 3-1 to 3-20, don't attack. Fight from 21 to 80.""Because 3-1 to..." "The distance between 3 and 20 is far enough that even the divine realm's spiritual power cannot perceive it. I only need to cut off all communication and satellite signals in that area to isolate War Zones 20 to 80 from the world.""For at least an hour, no one will know what's happening there!""In one hour, the 100,000-strong mechanical army, plus our original demon realm army, will be enough to break through the defenses of War Zones 21 to 80 and the border cities behind them, turning that place into a living hell and filling it with the luck beads sent down from above."
