In the next instant, Shen Wu's body returned to normal, and a powerful ruler's power instantly paralyzed the father and son duo.
Zhao Yuande returned to his true form as well. Looking at the father and son duo, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Ruler …" When the weary middle-aged man saw Shen Wu appear, his face filled with bitterness.
As for the young man, he couldn't say a single word. His strength was too weak. It was as if he'd been instantly sealed in ice. Even his soul couldn't move. All he could do was stare at Shen Wu and Shen Wu in terror.
"We already know everything you've done! We even heard your conversation just now. " Shen Wu looked at the weary middle-aged man and said calmly, "I'll give you a chance. As long as you tell me everything and cooperate with me, I can protect you."
"Everything you said is true!" A hint of hope flashed across the weary middle-aged man's face, but in the next instant, it was replaced by helplessness and disappointment. "Ruler, I can't say anything. Otherwise, my family, my parents, my brothers and sisters will all be killed. They … are already under the control of the other races! I would rather die than use their lives as a stake. "
"Don't tell me you don't care about your son?" Shen Wu asked.
"Son …" The weary middle-aged man's face stiffened. He turned to look at his son, the son he'd placed all his hopes on.
"I can't do anything about your other relatives, but I can protect your son!" Shen Wu looked at him and said, "I can let him live in my inner world. As long as I don't die, no one will harm him!"
"This …" The middle-aged man looked troubled. Between his family and his son, he really had no choice.
"Senior, could it be that you're willing to become the dog of the other races for the sake of your family? You're willing to endanger the interests of the human race?" Zhao Yuande said. "Who knows how many people will die because of this? Don't you feel even the slightest bit of guilt?"
Although Zhao Yuande said this, if it were him, he probably wouldn't have had a choice either. He was a sentimental person, and he could understand the pain in the middle-aged man's heart. That was why he hoped the man would realize his mistake and mend his ways.
"I … I don't want to be like this either, but my father's family has done so much for me. If I don't care about their lives, wouldn't I be worse than a pig or a dog?! That would be unfilial! "The middle-aged man howled in pain, tears rolling down his cheeks.
"But, for the sake of your family, for the sake of your parents, you disregarded the entire humankind. That is disloyal! If the Pan-Human Alliance is gone, your family will no longer be of any use to them. Do you think they'll let your family remain in this world? "Zhao Yuande roared." How should we choose?! "
"But …" The exhausted middle-aged man still showed signs of struggle on his face.
"I'm afraid you still don't know what the real alien race is!" Zhao Yuande continued, "They are called the Astrals. They are parasites of the entire universe. Their mission is to destroy and devour! If the human race was annihilated, the entire universe would be finished. It would be devoured by them! At that time, not to mention your family, even the foreign races controlled by the Spirit Race will be wiped out! "
"You … You're telling the truth!" The exhausted middle-aged man's expression changed drastically when he heard Zhao Yuande's words.
"If I hadn't seen you in so much pain, I wouldn't have said so much to you!" Zhao Yuande said indifferently. "We don't even need to talk to you. We can just search your souls!"
"Alright! I'll tell you everything I know. I only ask that you let my son live! "The exhausted middle-aged man seemed to go limp, a bitter look on his face.
"That's easy!" The Divine Martial Emperor swept his sleeves and put the young man into his internal world. "Tell me everything you know and I will let your son live safely in my internal world until the alien race is destroyed!"
"Thank you, Ruler! Thank you, Ruler! "The exhausted middle-aged man's face was filled with gratitude.
"Tell me everything you know!" Zhao Yuande looked at the other party and said indifferently.
"…" The tired-looking middle-aged man recounted everything he knew in detail from the beginning to the end.
"Good! Very good! " When the Divine Martial Emperor heard the news, he couldn't help but look solemn. At the same time, he felt a sense of relief.
"I heard that your family is still in the Heavenly Phoenix Realm. If it's possible, come with me. Maybe I can help you rescue some of them!" Zhao Yuande said at this moment.
"Yuande, you …" The Divine Martial Emperor looked at Zhao Yuande in disbelief. "We're on the Void Divine Boat. Our current speed is faster than a Ruler's flying speed. If we stop, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach the Chaotic Realm on time!"
"Master's wife, I have my ways!" Zhao Yuande smiled confidently at the Divine Martial Emperor.
"Good! Then let's go together! "The Divine Martial Emperor looked at Zhao Yuande with excitement in his eyes.
"No … Master's wife, you are the controller of this Void Divine Boat. If you leave, I'm afraid that the news will quickly spread to the ears of all the spies in this small world. At that time, some accidents might happen!" Zhao Yuande shook his head slightly and said, "Could it be that you still don't believe in my strength? It should be more than enough to rescue a few people! "
"That's true!" When the Divine Martial Emperor heard Zhao Yuande's words, he thought of the many miraculous things about him and couldn't help but nod slightly.
"The Heavenly Phoenix Realm is very far from our Fortune Realm. Even with the teleportation formation, it would take dozens of teleportations and several days. Have you thought of this?" The Divine Martial Emperor asked again.
"Of course I know!" Zhao Yuande smiled slightly. "Master's wife, don't worry!"
"That … I can go with you and help you lead the way!" The tired-looking middle-aged man said.
"No … I need you to stay on this Void Divine Boat. There's a big plan that I need you to complete. After we rescue your family and return, this plan can be carried out!" Zhao Yuande said with a mysterious smile. "Before that, I need you to do this … this …"
The more the Divine Martial Emperor and the tired-looking middle-aged man listened, the more shocked they became. The more they listened, the faster their hearts beat.
"Will this really work? There won't be any accidents, right? "The Divine Martial Emperor was stunned by Zhao Yuande's bold plan.
"The success rate is at least seventy to eighty percent!" Zhao Yuande said confidently.
"Good! Let's do it! "The Divine Martial Emperor's eyes lit up.
"Before I return, as long as you set up the plan, don't put it into action. Otherwise, it might fail at the last step!" Zhao Yuande instructed.
"Go!" The Divine Martial Emperor waved his hand.
Zhao Yuande disappeared on the spot.
"Sovereign! He … can he succeed? "The tired-looking middle-aged man looked at the Divine Martial Emperor.
"Just wait! It's your good fortune to be able to rescue even one person! " The Divine Martial Emperor said. "He's a person who values relationships the most. If you didn't value your family so much, he wouldn't have done something so meaningless!"
"I …"
By then, Zhao Yuande had already returned to his room. Summoning a spatial passageway, he stepped into a door of light.
When he reappeared, what appeared before him was that vast and terrifying battlefield.
The Godsfall Star Sea!
The Heavenly Phoenix Realm wasn't too far away from the Godsfall Star Sea. He just so happened to leave a spatial coordinate here. This could be considered the middle-aged man's good fortune.
As soon as he appeared in the Godsfall Star Sea, his powerful divine soul, which was comparable to a Sovereign's, began to radiate outward. His Divine Domain instantly covered an area of ten billion kilometers.
This was the first time he had used the Divine Domain's teleportation technique in the starry sky.
This speed was already comparable to the Void Divine Boat's speed. However, it was extremely taxing on his divine soul.
After dozens of teleportations and spatial jumps, he finally saw an enormous, fiery-red world.
This world was like a huge fireball. Even from far away, he could feel a wave of heat assaulting his face.
Zhao Yuande didn't alarm anyone. He directly descended on this enormous world.
This world was filled with tall, ancient red trees. These ancient trees were constantly absorbing the terrifying heat released from the ground. As a result, the temperature of this world wasn't as terrifying as one would imagine.
As soon as he landed on this world, he sensed several incomparably powerful auras in the center of this world. They were several powerful Sovereigns.
However, Zhao Yuande didn't dare to believe them. He didn't know whether or not there were foreign spies among these Sovereigns!
He followed the middle-aged man's instructions and quickly appeared above a vast sea.
There were countless islands scattered all over this sea.
On an inconspicuous island, the island was very ordinary, and there was a seemingly ordinary sect living on it.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Yuande's divine soul was as powerful as a Sovereign's, he probably wouldn't have been able to see that this sect was unusual.
Within this sect, there were powerful auras lurking within.
Experts below the Sovereign Realm wouldn't be able to detect any of this!
Moreover, why would the Sovereigns of the Heavenly Phoenix Realm have the time to investigate such an insignificant island?
"There are no Sovereigns here!" Zhao Yuande quickly identified these powerful auras. They were all powerful foreign races.
Underneath this small island, he also sensed the auras of a group of humans.
"There are a total of 371 foreign race experts on this island. It won't be easy to catch them all and save everyone safely." Zhao Yuande frowned and pondered. "It seems like I still need to find some helpers!"
He recorded the spatial coordinates of this place. Then, he stepped into the spatial tunnel again and quietly returned to the Illusion Heaven Palace.
"Hm? What happened? "Zhao Yuande returned to the Illusion Heaven Palace. He discovered that this place was different from usual.
