"Cough, cough. Cough, cough, cough, cough. Hahahaha!"
Li Jiande seemed to have coughed out his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. He stared at Li Linghai gloomily and said, "At first, you contacted the many small forces at the edge of the Imperium behind the family's back and developed such an enormous secret armed force on your own, raising a storm of blood and roasting the family on the stove.
"When things were out of control, you simply marched back to the family in desperation and took a bite. You slaughtered thousands of members of the family without batting an eye and destroyed more than half of the elite fleets of the family.
"After doing such treacherous things, you are bold enough to tell me shamelessly that it is for the future of the family. Do you really think that … the Li family is undisciplined?"
Boom!
The old man, who seemed to be dying and could not even withstand the feeble cold wind, suddenly bulged his eyes and slapped his hands that were as skinny as firewood. Even the light beams of the three people were rippling, as if they were about to be shattered.
"Please calm down, Elder. It won't be too late for you to listen to my explanation."
Li Linghai, however, was not intimidated by the leader of the Li family at all. Even his eyebrow did not shiver at all. He was still smiling. "I didn't want to make such a bad decision, but I had no other choice. Most of the people in power in the Li family right now are ignorant, overcautious, and incompetent people. Take a pig like my father for example. If I had told them my plan directly, there wouldn't have been a second result except that they would have been scared out of their wits and made more determined to get rid of me.
"Only you, Elder Ancestor, are capable of foresight and foresight. You are an extraordinary person who can see the changes of the situation hundreds of years later.
"But you are too old after all. In the past, you worked so hard for the family and spent too much of your time. Now, you have to rest in seclusion most of the time. The complicated affairs of the family inevitably have to be handled by others. As a result, you are dragged down by these pig-like teammates.
"Let me ask you, if I didn't do it in such a way, would I have had a chance to meet you, shut those pigs up, convinced the family of the possibility and seriousness of the matter, and made you listen to me carefully even though I was the queen of the Imperium?"
"What if I don't want to hear it?"
Every wrinkle on Li Jiande's face was emitting coldness that was as sharp as a blade. He moved closer to the light beam and said, one word after another, "My good granddaughter, listen up. I don't know how many capabilities you have except for the Thunder Fleet, but the Divine Rain Planet is a strategic location that the family has been working on for hundreds of years. Even I designed and perfected the defense system of the Divine Rain Planet in person.
"The entire Divine Rain Planet is full of battle fortresses large and small, both in the open and in the dark. Millions of battle puppets and elite Exos are on standby, too. The ordnance and food below the ground are enough to support the high-intensity resistance for years. You will not be able to take down the Divine Rain Planet without a couple of years and countless bodies of flesh and blood!
"Hehe. Not just a couple of years, the four Kurfürst families will be able to mobilize tremendous elites to jump to the Divine Rain Sector in only ten days.
"Yes. We have lost the jump coordinates of the Divine Rain Sector. It seems that our fleet cannot jump over on a large scale because of the three space gates that you have occupied and destroyed, right?
"So what? We have plenty of portable components to assemble the space gates that can be loaded on the starships. As long as a few starships jump to the edge of the Divine Rain Sector, a few small space gates will be established in a day or two to summon the main troops.
"How many starships do you have under your control? Is it possible for you to monitor the entire boundless peripheral space zone of the Divine Rain Sector, find all the small space gates that have been secretly established, and destroy them one by one?
"Besides, the Divine Rain Fleet can't be completely destroyed by you so easily, can it? Even if they are pigs, they are pigs that are armed with the most advanced starships and Crystal Suit. I don't believe that you can completely control the entire Divine Rain Sector in one month!
"So, I'm very curious. Tell me, my good granddaughter, what makes you think that you can force the whole family to sit down and negotiate with you obediently?"
Li Jiande sat back again.
His black eyes the size of green beans were slightly closed, as if he had lost interest in the conversation and would cut off the communication at any moment.
"Negotiate?"
Li Linghai pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her fingers slightly. "Ancestor, you've got it wrong. I'm not here to negotiate with the family, but to give the family an ultimatum."
Li Jiande opened his eyes that had just been closed again.
His eyes were so gloomy and brutal that they seemed to be able to pry open the breastplate of the heavy Crystal Suit.
"I've never thought of occupying the Divine Rain Planet or any habitable planet of the family. So, I won't be so stupid as to send troops to break into the atmosphere for a bloody landing battle one street after another.
"I only want the resources stored in the warehouses, warehouses, and space fortresses in the orbit, mainly fuel and ammunition."
Li Linghai raised his wrist and checked the time and progress on his mini crystal processor. "In twelve hours, my fleet will move away all the assets at the periphery of the Divine Rain Planet. The crystals, ammunition, and spiritual energy fuel on the starships that we have captured will be moved away, too.
"Then, I will tie the captive starships to the facilities on the orbit, such as the spaceports, docks, space fortresses, and so on. With the enormous impetus of the twenty starships, I will push all the facilities on the orbit into the atmosphere and crash them to the ground.
"As for the targets, I've already made up my mind. They will be the twenty most densely populated cities on the Divine Rain Planet. I believe that the defense of the Divine Rain Planet must be very thorough. However, if dozens of spaceports and space fortresses weighing millions of tons are smashed down brutally at the highest speed, how enormous will the mass and blast be? Even the most advanced anti-air cannons can't obliterate such an enormous mass into nothingness, right?
"I estimate that I will completely destroy ten of the twenty metropolises on the Divine Rain Planet in the end. If I'm lucky, maybe fifteen?
"Then, the entire Divine Rain Planet will be enshrouded in terrifying smoke. The intense smoke will block the brightness of the star. In the next twenty years, the Divine Rain Planet will become a frigid hell below zero. Perhaps it will be thirty to fifty years before the flowers blossom in spring can be appreciated again. Those who are lucky enough to survive, just wait patiently!"
Li Linghai looked at Li Jiande with a smile.
The more gloomy the guy's eyes were, the more brilliant her smile would be. She completely regarded the look as a compliment.
"This is just the first step. I'm not done yet."
Li Linghai continued, "After all the facilities on the orbit and all the captive starships are pushed to the major cities on the Divine Rain Planet, the coalition fleet of the reformists will leave the Divine Rain Sector and jump to other Sectors of the Li family.
"Since ancient times, you can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can never guard against a thief for a thousand days. However well-prepared the family is, it is impossible for them to distribute all the troops to every Sector equally, right? It would be great if they were really so stupid.
"Yes. Of course, it is impossible for me to control the space gates of all the Sectors, but didn't you mention that there is a piece of magical equipment in the world named 'detachable space gates'? As it happens, my fleet happens to be carrying a few of such space gates, which are enough for me to launch a protracted harassment and sabotage within the Li family!
"Every time we jump to a new Sector, we will crush the fleet stationed there and swallow all the resources. We will try our best to directly destroy all the habitable planets and resource planets. At the very least, we will destroy the living conditions of the habitable planets so that the environment of those planets will become extremely harsh.
"Before the main force of the family realizes what's going on, we will be able to complete the sabotage, destruction, and relocation. Then, we will look for the next target or simply lurk in the vast universe for a while. After all, the resources that we looted will be enough.
"After all the worlds with relatively weak defense are looted and destroyed, we will jump to the central Sector of the family and have a final battle with the most elite forces of the family in front of you, my ancestor!
"Yes. Perhaps the organization when we jump over is very incomplete, and there is not the slightest formation. All the starships will be scattered in the boundless sea of stars. We will certainly fail.
"But I believe that, with the determination to die together with the enemy, I can at least drag thirty percent of the elites of the family into hell before I am obliterated, can't I?
"This is my plan, my ancestor. It doesn't matter even if there is a slight discount in the actual operation. As long as almost ten planets and a couple of elite fleets of the family die with me, I will be more than satisfied."
An enormous wall of silence stood between Li Linghai and Li Jiande.
"Silver Fox" Li Jiande was best known for his ruthlessness and ruthlessness when he was in his prime years. He had killed a lot of people without blinking.
However, there was no telling if a lot of organs became softer as one got older, but the coldness and ruthlessness on his face began to crack.
Li Linghai saw through Li Jiande's hesitation after a quick glance. The smile in his transparent eyes was even more intense. Licking his sharp teeth with his soft tongue, he said, "The four Kurfürst families are like four hungry, insatiable tigers. While they are united to resist the hyenas, wolves, and leopards at the periphery, aren't they coveting each other?
"Two tigers cannot live on the same mountain. Although the universe is vast, four tigers are still too many. If one of the tigers is heavily wounded, emitting the tempting smell of blood and meat, my ancestor, do you think the other three hungry tigers will treat it and help it recover its strength, or will they take advantage of it and divide it into pieces and swallow it without leaving any bones behind?"
