Chapter 1725: Divergent
Xiang Shaoyun\'s suggestion stunned everyone. Both sides had agreed to the fights. Why would he suggest something like that?
"What a good idea. Do you intend to make all of us go back on our words?" said the Celestial War King with a sneer.
"Hehe, that will only tell the aliens that we are sore losers," said Di Lin.
"What a good idea, overlord. Why don\'t you lead your people over and trash those aliens, then?" said someone with a sneer.
Just as everyone was voicing their disagreement, Gongsun Sanyang said, "I agree. We should just trash them all."
"Sanyang, what do you mean? Do you think that we can\'t defeat the aliens in one-on-one matches?" questioned Qin Jiu, his face falling.
"You\'re all idiots. That\'s why none of you understood what Xiang Shaoyun meant," said Gongsun Sanyang bluntly. "We\'re at war. What\'s the point of fairness in war? We have more people than them. If all of us attack at the same time, we will definitely have the advantage. But by wasting our time on these one-on-one matches, we are only causing our own morale to drop. Eventually, their army will crush all of us. Do you really think it\'s a good idea to continue with this farce of a challenge?"
All the young Gods sank into silence. They understood Gongsun Sanyang\'s logic. However, some of them still couldn\'t accept the suggestion. They were unwilling to accept that they weren\'t the aliens\' match in the bouts. And thus, they were deadlocked, unable to reach a decision.
At this time, Xiang Shaoyun stepped forth and said, "This can be solved easily. None of you have been using your brain."
His words caused many faces to turn unsightly. If it wasn\'t for the fact that they were facing a powerful enemy, they would have swarmed Xiang Shaoyun from that statement alone. After all, he was saying that all of them were brainless. How could they tolerate such an insult?
"Do tell. What do you have in your mind? If you can\'t come up with a proper idea, I won\'t spare you," said the Celestial War King.
"That\'s right. We are not the kind of people you can insult as you wish," said Di Lin.
There was no doubt that Di Lin was a crafty individual. With those words, he positioned everyone against Xiang Shaoyun.
"Don\'t forget our goal here. The one to kill the most aliens and the one with the highest contribution will become the young guild master. There is no need for us to waste our time here with these aliens. Let\'s pretend that we are going to continue with the matches while sending a group over to blitz through them," said Xiang Shaoyun. "Of course, it doesn\'t matter if you disagree. I\'ve decided to do it."
"Do you really think the aliens are all fools? How can they be ambushed so easily?" someone retorted.
"Just because you can\'t do it doesn\'t mean I can\'t," said Xiang Shaoyun with a sneer.
"Fine. Since you know what to do, feel free to attack by yourself," said someone unhappily.
At their level, very few tricks could hide from their detection. Not even the aliens would be able to easily attack them undetected. Thus, they did not believe that Xiang Shaoyun\'s ambush would be successful.
"Deal. You will continue your matches while I\'ll be in charge of carrying out the attack," said Xiang Shaoyun.
He then turned to leave without saying anything else. Song Tiandao immediately left as well. After some hesitation, Ling Ziruo followed the two.
"Ziruo, are you really going to join him in this madness?" asked Ji Feixian.
"I think he is worth believing," said Ling Ziruo before walking off with Xiang Shaoyun.
As for Gongsun Sanyang, he did not leave with Xiang Shaoyun. Unlike Xiang Shaoyun, he couldn\'t do as he wished. He had to take the big picture into consideration.
"How is someone like that worthy of being a leader?" complained the Celestial War King.
"Just forget about him. We\'re all here to fight the aliens. Since he is not interested in working with us, what is he going to do with the few people he has?" said Qin Jiu with a sneer.
Even a peak Rebirth Realm expert would not be able to sneak into the aliens\' rearguard. Qin Jiu refused to believe that Xiang Shaoyun could accomplish what nobody could.
After leaving the gathering place, Ling Ziruo asked, "Young Master Xiang, are you sure you\'re not being reckless?"
"Yes, I am being reckless. Even so, that\'s better than wasting time with all those people," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"Do you really think we have enough people to sufficiently damage the alien army of one million?" asked Ling Ziruo.
"That\'s naturally impossible. However, we have 100 years to battle the aliens. This was never intended to be a short war. It won\'t be easy for us to obtain victory in a short time frame. We need to first find the perfect location to settle down before forming an offensive plan," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"Xiang Shaoyun, you intend to fight them in guerilla warfare?" asked Song Tiandao.
"Hehe, you do know me well," said Xiang Shaoyun with a smile. "If you trust me, listen to me. I\'m confident I can minimize our casualties while maximizing the number of enemies we kill."
"I decided to put my trust in you ever since I became your ally," said Song Tiandao.
Ling Ziruo hesitated for a bit before saying, "Since I\'m already here with you, of course I\'ll trust you."
"Very well. Now, let me kill our first batch of enemies," said Xiang Shaoyun. With a smile, he threw a casual punch in one direction.
The punch was too sudden, so it caught the hidden aliens by complete surprise. Only a cloud of blood was left of the concealed aliens.
"Aliens!" everyone exclaimed in alarm.
"Calm down. They\'re merely the aliens from the invisible race. They aren\'t too strong. Wait while I take them all down," said Xiang Shaoyun as he released his Imperial Nether Domain and trapped dozens of invisible race aliens in it, rendering escape impossible.
These invisible race aliens had been hiding around the humans. When they blended into the void itself, even a peak God would have a hard time noticing them. However, they weren\'t able to hide from Xiang Shaoyun.
The invisible race members weren\'t large in size. Their flesh was translucent, revealing their inner organs. Born with the talent of invisibility, they were the perfect race for stealth-based operations.
There was also a God among them, but he wasn\'t too strong. Trapped in Xiang Shaoyun\'s Imperial Nether Domain, he was completely helpless. Instead of killing all of them, Xiang Shaoyun put them all under his control with the Nether Dragon Soul Curse.
"With you guys, attacking the aliens has become much easier," said Xiang Shaoyun before releasing all the invisible race aliens.
Both Ling Ziruo and Song Tiandao grew even more confident after witnessing Xiang Shaoyun\'s capability. The group picked a location and settled down. There, Xiang Shaoyun told everyone his plan. He had a simple goal—to mount a sneak attack on the aliens and lure a group of aliens out. An ambush would lie in wait to eliminate the pursuing party.
Everyone put forth some ideas to perfect the plan. Ultimately, they agreed that it was feasible and decided to carry it out.
