Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7092

Chapter 7003: The Wind Rises

The decision made by Li Tianming in his conversation with Jiuding and the others in the Little Divine Treasury Star System was entirely good news for the Divine Treasury Clan.

After all, the Heavenly Emperor Sect and the surrounding star systems all believed they were doomed and were terrified of being associated with them.

However, Li Tianming stood firmly by their side.

This was the only assistance they could receive.

Wu Xuan and the others relayed this news, which immediately drew tears of gratitude from the Divine Treasury Clan.

After finishing these tasks, they arrived at the Old Capital Square.

There, they noticed the somewhat desolate atmosphere and couldn’t help but wonder.

Wu Xuan asked Li Tianming in surprise, “Governor Li, what’s going on? Has the Heavenly Mandate Army encountered any difficulties?”

“If we can help, we will certainly repay you in any way we can, after all, you have already done so much for us,” an elder said sincerely.

“There’s nothing difficult about it.” Li Tianming looked at Wu Xuan and smiled slightly. “I’ve asked the brothers who had reservations to withdraw from the Tianming Army. After all, you care about your people, and they have their own people too, don’t they? I’ve also given them a chance to choose whether to participate in this turmoil.”

The eight elders and all the high-ranking members of the Shenzang Clan were shocked, their eyes wide with disbelief.

“Governor Li’s kindness to our Shenzang Clan is too great. I, Wu Xuan, on behalf of the entire Shenzang Clan, swear to be loyal to Governor Li to the death!” Wu Xuan was almost in tears, pounding his chest heavily.

An old woman with faltering steps trembled as she tried to kneel down. She said, “I never imagined that the future of the Shenzang Clan would be entrusted to Governor Li. On behalf of the Shenzang Clan, I thank you!”

Li Tianming’s action of asking some members of the Tianming Army to withdraw revealed two messages to them.

First, he wanted to help the Shenzang Clan, but he also let some members of the Tianming Army go, which showed that he had a moral compass and did not want to involve innocent people.

Secondly, this also illustrates that helping the Divine Treasure Clan is an extremely dangerous matter, involving far too many people, and potentially even dragging the families of the Heavenly Emperor Sect members into this vortex. Even so, Li Tianming still insisted on saving them.

In the eyes of the Divine Treasure Clan, this was tantamount to risking their lives to save them.

How could they not be moved?

How could they not feel a desire to swear allegiance to him?

At the same time, Ji Yu, who had just emerged from the Line Source Plank Road, also had tears in her eyes upon hearing this news.

“If Governor Li really invites a battle because of protecting the Divine Treasure Clan, I, Ji Yu, will definitely die before Governor Li!” Ji Yu said firmly.

“What death? That’s so unlucky.” Li Tianming responded with a smile, then said with a deep gaze, “I will not die, nor do I need anyone to take a blow for me. Just do what you should do, that’s enough.”

“In short, if needed, I, Ji Yu, will repay you with my life.” Ji Yu said stubbornly.

“Forget about this nonsense,” Li Tianming waved his hand, then said, “Let’s get down to business. What did the Divine Treasure Clan Emperor say?”

Not long ago, Jiu Ding and the others had just left when Ji Yu went to the Great Divine Treasure Star System to deliver the news that Li Tianming had refused the two orders from the young Emperor.

She had only just returned.

Facing Li Tianming’s question, Ji Yu said, “I think my father Emperor completely trusts you… They will send the people of the Great Divine Treasure Star System here in two ways: the Line Source Stack and the spaceship.”

“Two routes?” Li Tianming said thoughtfully, “That’s a good method. It can increase the margin for error and avoid being blocked.”

However, Ji Yu couldn’t help but worry. She frowned and asked, “If the number of people coming is three times that of the Small Divine Treasure Star System, can you accept it?”

Three times that of the Small Divine Treasure Star System would be at least hundreds of millions of people, which is an enormous number.

“Can your Little Divine Treasure Star System accommodate so many people?” Li Tianming didn’t answer directly, but instead asked with a smile. He continued, “As long as you can accommodate them, I’ll accept them. I’ll welcome everyone.”

Ji Yu pursed her lips upon hearing this, then looked up at Li Tianming with a determined gaze and said, “It’s definitely possible. Even if we have to squeeze in, we want to preserve our clan!”

“Then there’s no problem.” Li Tianming nodded decisively.

Ji Yu was deeply moved, tears welling up in her eyes. She bowed and said, “Although I’ve thanked you countless times, it still feels insufficient. Ji Yu thanks Governor Li for his willingness to help the Divine Treasure Clan.”

It’s important to understand that accommodating too many members of the Divine Treasure Clan in the Great Divine Treasure Star System is a risk.

Moreover, a larger number of people increases the difficulty of concealment, greatly increasing the risk.

But Li Tianming agreed without hesitation, completely disregarding the consequences.

Ji Yu knew very well how much Li Tianming had sacrificed for them and how much pressure he had withstood.

Therefore, it was perfectly normal for her to be moved to tears.

Having received Li Tianming’s reply, she said to him again, “I’ll go to the Great Divine Treasury Star System immediately to tell my father this good news.”

“Okay, go ahead. The battlefield has no eyes; be careful,” Li Tianming nodded, giving her instructions.

“I will. I still want to join Governor Li in welcoming a new future for the Divine Treasury Clan,” Ji Yu nodded, her gaze resolute.

After speaking, she resolutely entered the Line Source Walkway in the center of the Old Capital Square.

As the Holy Maiden of the Divine Treasury, Ji Yu had also made great efforts for the survival of her race.

However, sometimes a positive attitude has little effect on such a top-level battle.

It still requires sufficient strength and confidence to create a true miracle…

The storm is brewing.

As Ji Yu left from the Line Source Walkway, more and more members of the Divine Treasury Clan from the Great Divine Treasury Star System arrived in the Old Capital via the Line Source Walkway.

This all meant that the situation on the battlefield was becoming increasingly severe.

Group after group of Divine Treasury Clan members knelt down before Li Tianming upon arrival.

A chorus of gratitude rose and fell.

“Thank you, Governor Li, for taking us in! Thank you, Governor Li, for saving our Shenzang Clan!”

“Without Governor Li, perhaps both our Greater and Lesser Shenzang star systems would have already fallen, and we could never have survived until now…”

Countless people wept tears of gratitude, expressing their heartfelt thanks.

While it seemed Li Tianming hadn’t participated in the battle of the Greater Shenzang star system, his help in repelling the galactic alliance and protecting the Lesser Shenzang star system was, in fact, a form of assistance to the battlefield of the Greater Shenzang star system.

If they were fighting bitterly on the front lines, news would have come from the rear that their old capital and homeland had been massacred, which would have undoubtedly affected morale.

Therefore, with Li Tianming present, they were able to fully commit to the battle and fight with their last ounce of courage.

Without Li Tianming’s presence, the Lesser Shenzang star system would have been captured by the galactic alliance, and they wouldn’t have had this escape route.

At this moment, a large number of people knelt down in front of Li Tianming to express their gratitude. More and more people gathered, and the huge square became crowded.
