Righteousness Soars to the Skies

At the invitation of the higher-ups of Shadow Island, the titans and top brass from various planets walked into the metropolis, their eyes filled with neon lights. As they advanced, they finally noticed the extraordinary nature of Shadow Island, gasping and exclaiming in amazement at everything they saw!

"This road..."

"This road is actually so solid and smooth, what kind of material is it made of?"

"What kind of Dharma treasure is that? It can actually reflect the scene in the sky so vividly? Such precious Dharma treasures are unexpectedly everywhere!"

"Look at that child!"

"This! This child's bone age is at most a few years old, yet he actually has the cultivation of a Martial Emperor? The child next to him is also a Martial Emperor?!"

"Hiss!!!"

"This Shadow Island seems a bit strong, just what kind of faction is it?!"

...

Their exclamations became increasingly outrageous, and the higher-ups of the various planets repeatedly lost their composure.

They were obviously the leading figures of the top factions on their respective planets, and there was even no lack of big shots at the Planet Master level, yet the further they walked, the more they doubted their lives. They gasped in shock the whole way, comparable to country bumpkins entering the city for the first time!

It wasn't until they entered an office building in the city center and took their seats in the conference room to wait quietly.

The mighty figures from all sides still had faces full of horror, their hearts surging with turbulent waves!

However, they were big shots after all, and they quickly steadied their states of mind. At least on the surface, they couldn't show too much loss of composure, lest they be laughed at.

Everyone still had this bit of grace and mental fortitude.

Unfortunately, this forcibly maintained grace was ultimately a deliberate act. The demeanor of most people was far from natural. Although they sat properly and rigidly the whole time with cautious expressions, they looked a bit nervous no matter how you looked at them.

It wasn't until the servants respectfully served the teacups and left.

Everyone's deliberate calmness could no longer be maintained. The higher-ups of the various planets sitting in the back rows even couldn't help but whisper to each other.

"This teacup seems to have Dao rhythm flowing around it, could it be a top-tier Desolate Artifact..."

"What?!"

"A top-tier Desolate Artifact used as a teacup, how is this possible!"

"No... it seems to really be one."

"More than just the teacups! Fellow Daoists, could it be that you haven't realized the tables and chairs we are sitting on are also Desolate Artifacts!?"

"My God, this level of extravagance is unheard of!"

"Hiss..."

There was another round of stealthy gasps, and the air in the conference room seemed to become a lot colder.

For a time.

Everyone became much more silent, each with their own thoughts.

Whether it was the strength displayed by the people of Shadow Island in the previous battle, or everything they were seeing now, it all represented the extraordinary nature of Shadow Island.

But as for this Shadow Island, many people present had never even heard of it.

Finally, under everyone's anticipation.

The doors of the conference room opened, and several hale and hearty old men stepped in steadily.

Besides Lu Dasheng, the arrivals also included Lu Qingshan, Qing Huan Xiang, Pork Rong, Wu Yonghong, and this group of veteran figures of Shadow Island.

At this time, Lu Qingshan and the others stood quietly before the main seats and cupped their fists in greeting to everyone.

"On behalf of everyone on Shadow Island, we thank you all for righteously coming from afar to our aid!"

Hearing this, the titans of the various planets and the representatives of all parties all stood up and cupped their fists in return!

"You flatter us!"

It wasn't until Lu Qingshan and the others reached out to invite them that everyone took their seats in turn.

After a few pleasantries and mutual introductions, Lu Dasheng and the others exchanged glances. Finally, Lu Dasheng pondered aloud, cutting straight to the chase.

"Everyone, I won't beat around the bush, let's get straight to the point."

"You are all located in major star systems, and you also know that the alien races that have been ravaging recently have suddenly disappeared without a trace."

"If my guess is correct, I'm afraid that all the alien races that vanished from the entire galaxy have gathered in that spatial gate above, concentrating their forces to attack our Shadow Island!" Lu Dasheng pointed above his head, speaking with a heavy voice.

As his words fell, the expressions of everyone present changed!

The titans of the various planets were also so shocked that they lost their voices in exclamation!

"This!"

"The alien races of the entire galaxy are here?!"

"No wonder, no wonder with the strength of everyone on Shadow Island, you still needed our assistance..."

"It's also no wonder there are so many alien races in that spatial gate..."

Amidst their shock, the titans of the various planets finally realized that this was probably the truth.

"The alien races of the entire galaxy..."

Gui Wanhai's eyes trembled slightly.

"If this number of enemies had all appeared on Planet Lan, we would probably have been annihilated long ago!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the few people beside him also showed grave expressions in their eyes.

The higher-ups of the various planets behind them were the same. Just imagining the despairing scene of facing the offensive of the alien races from the entire galaxy, some people's palms were already seeping with cold sweat!

The meeting had just begun, and it fell into a brief, shocked silence once again.

"Therefore, I implore you all to stay on our Shadow Island for a long time." After pondering slightly, Lu Dasheng cupped his fists and said to everyone.

As his voice faded, the expressions of the higher-ups from the various planets varied.

Some had grave looks in their eyes, some had panic in their eyes, some had flickering gazes, and others peeked at everyone's reactions...

Facing the alien races gathered from the entire galaxy, everyone felt immense pressure. For a time, there were constant whispers in the back rows of the conference room, becoming quite noisy.

"Us coming to help is already doing our utmost."

"Fellow Daoist, these words are too narrow-minded! Now that the alien races of the galaxy are all here, this matter is truly bizarre and there must be a conspiracy. If we sit idly by and do nothing, and the alien races run rampant in your star system in the future, what then?"

"Well said! As the saying goes, when the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. Although we come from different planets, we all belong to the same galaxy, and Planet Yun is even a boundary planet. If Planet Yun is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"This... everyone makes sense, it was I who was superficial."

...

The sounds of dispute gradually subsided, and everyone quickly reached a consensus.

Those who could take a seat here were all higher-ups of the various planets. Even if there was no lack of people with ulterior motives, they were not so foolish as to be unable to distinguish the severity and urgency of the situation. They at least had a basic sense of the big picture.

In just a few breaths, the higher-ups of the various planets all revealed determined expressions in their eyes, and no one spoke out of turn again.

The eyes of the entire audience gathered on the titans of the various planets in the front row on the left.

The various titans also stated their positions on the spot, their eyes revealing a sense of righteous duty!

"Now that the alien races are gathered here, we should stand together through thick and thin!"

"That's right! When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact! If we all leave separately today, when the alien races grow powerful in the future, we will definitely regret it when it's too late!"

"We are all members of the Planet Yun Galaxy, we ought to fight the enemy together!"

Lu Dasheng and the others seeing this, immediately showed expressions of gratitude, visibly moved as they bowed in greeting.

"Thank you all for drawing your swords to help. On behalf of everyone on Shadow Island, we thank you all here!"

"Since everyone is so profoundly righteous, we will no longer hide it from you all, and we will also resolve the doubts in everyone's hearts..."
