[Lv Wang – White Phoenix: Thank you for your concern, seniors. The matter has been resolved.]
[Candice – Rivendell: It's best that the matter has been resolved. Rivendell loves peace. As a territory of the Gemini Palace Star Zone, we hope that the war will end soon.]
[Lv Wang – White Phoenix: Rest assured, the White Phoenix Territory also loves peace. The war in the Gemini Palace Star Zone has already ended.]
[Mengchuan – Tianfu: Yes, the Gemini Palace Star Zone has indeed regained peace. After all, the Tang Territory no longer exists, haha!]
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes slightly. Lord Mengchuan's words were vaguely sarcastic.
Moreover, Lord Mengchuan's influence wasn't small. After he vaguely said that, other lesser lords quickly jumped out to support him.
[Jiang Zhiru – Jinyuan: Well said, Taizong – Tang Territory. Let's cheer for the hard-won peace!]
[Arlo – Noranton: Above, stop mentioning him. Lord Taizong has already sacrificed himself for the peace of the Gemini Palace Star Zone. I think we should hold a memorial service instead of a celebration.]
[Horace – Cecil: There are many ways to achieve peace. Lord Lv Wang has chosen the most violent way. How interesting.]
Bai Xiaowen frowned. Lord Mengchuan of the Tianfu Territory was much more influential than Taizong in the group. His words immediately attracted the support of many lords.
However, in Bai Xiaowen's opinion, these lords who jumped out shouldn't be that strong. They couldn't reach the level of a veteran third-tier territory. At most, they should be fourth-tier, similar to the Tang Territory. They might even be the lords of fifth-tier vassal territories.
After all, vassal territories could also participate in the discussions of the Blue Star Lords. Moreover, jumping out to support them without any hesitation and without any fear of making enemies for no reason didn't seem like the behavior of an independent territory.
Bai Xiaowen thought for a moment and sent a reply.
[If I was the one who lost the war, all the seniors, including Taizong of the Tang Territory, would be holding a memorial service for me right now. Unfortunately, I don't want to be the main character of the memorial service. I believe that all the seniors here have the same thoughts.]
Bai Xiaowen used a relaxed and humorous tone to narrate the bloody reality between White Phoenix Territory and Tang Territory, as well as the fact that he was forced to do so.
Moreover, the way they addressed him as "Senior" was a clear indication of the unequal relationship between the two sides in this war. The White Phoenix Territory was the weaker side and should be pitied. They could not be blamed just because the White Phoenix Territory had turned the tables and annexed the Great Tang Territory.
Bai Xiaowen's counterattack after careful consideration of his words made a good start.
In the Blue Star Overlords group chat, the Overlords who had a good impression of Bai Xiaowen or wanted to establish diplomatic relations with Bai Xiaowen also expressed their support.
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: Why are you all speaking so strangely? Isn't it the Great Tang Territory that was the first to declare war on a new territory? Didn't they fail to show off and get kicked instead? I'm wondering if the White Phoenix Territory isn't acting in self-defense, and why do I have to explain so much to you?]
[Candice – Rivendell: I agree. If the Rivendell Territory was invaded by an enemy, it would have made the same choice. The only way to deal with invaders is through war. The more peaceful a person is, the more they will not compromise with invaders.]
The Overlord of Mengchuan spoke again, "Don't you all think that Lv Wang's self-defense was excessive? He could have just driven out the invading Great Tang Territory army. Why did he have to annex the Great Tang Territory instead? For example, if someone threatened your safety with a knife and you fought with him, he threw his knife away and ran away. Would you pick up your knife and chase after him to kill him? "
[Lv Wang – White Phoenix: I'm sorry, but I would.]
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: I would too.]
[Candice – Rivendell: Overlord Mengchuan, isn't the example you gave a standard case of self-defense?]
The Overlord of Mengchuan was a little angry. "Do you all understand the law? The moment the enemy threw his knife away and ran away, he stopped his illegal invasion. When you picked up your knife and chased after him, you had already crossed the line of self-defense!"
[Call Me Queen – Wu Zhou: What else could I do? Wait for the enemy to catch his breath and switch to a bigger and sharper knife? What a joke!]
For a time, all the other Overlords in the group, even those who weren't familiar with Bai Xiaowen, jumped out to express their support for the White Phoenix Territory.
Bai Xiaowen had two thoughts in his mind.
The first was that this Mengchuan couldn't possibly be a legal expert from the Common Era, could he?
The second was that most of the Overlords in the group were reasonable.
Mengchuan's legal argument was quite powerful in the Common Era. To be honest, the law was based on the moral code of the public, and self-defense was one of them. Mengchuan's explanation of the law, which went against the common sense of most people, really didn't know where it came from.
Mengchuan was also confused. Using such an unreasonable explanation of the law to prove his point of view on this war, it was no wonder that everyone was disgusted with him.
Bai Xiaowen sent a final message in the public chat area: "Thank you all for your support. There are still many good people in the Interplanetary Alliance! From now on, the White Phoenix Territory will gradually open up our territory and cooperate with everyone! "
The group of Overlords who had received their share of the melons left in satisfaction.
…
"That despicable Lv Wang, that damned Queen Bee! And that Candice — "
Overlord Mengchuan cursed in a low voice as he closed the Blue Star Overlord Group.
Two people were standing in front of him.
One of them had white hair that fluttered in the wind and looked somewhat like a charlatan. It was the former Imperial Advisor of the Great Tang Territory, Fu Jing. The other person had a young appearance and looked like he was about seventeen or eighteen years old. Judging from his aura, he was only an Awakened. He wasn't even an Evolver.
Overlord Mengchuan looked at the two people and said helplessly, "Fu Jing, Nephew Li, this Lv Wang is quite experienced and mature. With just a few words, he changed the public's opinion. He even has a few little bitches supporting him. Under these circumstances, it's very difficult for me to find a reasonable excuse to intervene. "
Fu Jing said, "Fourth … Fourth Young Master is the direct heir of Overlord Taizong. Isn't this reason enough?"
The young man beside him also looked at Mengchuan with a hopeful gaze. He was Li Weichen's fourth son. He was sent away by the "Empress" Zhangsun, and he still had a large amount of spirit crystals and spirit materials on him. Later, the Empress Zhangsun also fled to the Heavenly Province Territory, and the reunion of the mother and son was a great fortune.
Fu Jing had fled to the Heavenly Province Territory after the Fourth Prince and before the Zhangsun. Originally, the Fourth Prince and his mother both had a bad impression of Fu Jing. However, Fu Jing was shrewd and ruthless. He explained the pros and cons of the situation to them and changed their minds with just a few words. The two of them temporarily colluded and formed the so-called "Great Tang Territory Exile Organization" in order to obtain more support from Overlord Mengchuan.
Since the emperor no longer existed, Fu Jing was worried that the Heavenly Province Territory would dislike him. Therefore, he no longer referred to the Zhangsun mother and son and the late Emperor Taizong as normal.
