Chapter 1652: Secret Arrest
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Old Lu, things have developed to such a stage. It’s no longer just about the interests of one family. It’s about the survival of the nine n.o.ble cultivation families. It’s a problem that we must face together.”
Lei Tianming coughed dryly and struck while the iron was hot. “I can understand your feelings for your biological granddaughter, and I also admire Lu Siya’s spirit of sacrificing everything for Dragon City.
“However, Yun Feidian is right. The real Lu Siya is dead!
“That thing with Lu Siya’s skin in front of the world right now is indeed not your biological granddaughter but a cunning monster. You can’t let your emotions get the best of you. You need to prioritize the bigger picture.”
“That’s right, President Lu. We promise that we’ll keep the impact of this incident to a minimum and not damage the reputation of the real Lu Siya and the entire Lu family.”
The other Deity Realm warriors also chimed in. “If the Lu family and Sky Pillar Corporation are truly hurt, don’t worry. We’ll definitely compensate you more than we can afford. We won’t let you suffer any losses!”
“We have to decide without hesitation!”
Some of them glared at each other. “This monster is pretending to be Lu Siya and causing trouble. It’s not only making things difficult for us, but it has also greatly damaged the Lu family’s reputation. If we don’t eliminate it as soon as possible, Sky Pillar Corporation will experience its biggest blow. It’s time to make up our minds!”
At that moment, Lu Siya’s figure appeared on the big screen at the end of the meeting room.
She seemed worn out from a long journey. She jumped out of the waste hauler and stood before the surging crowd, acting as the tide driver.
“Look! Lu Siya has appeared!”
Yun Feidian’s eyes shone as he rubbed his fists. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Lu Siya will certainly lead the crowd into Universe Corporation’s headquarters. So, no matter how much damage they cause inside, we can say that Lu Siya instigated and commanded them. It’s the most appropriate reason to capture her and bring her to justice!
“President Lu, the fate of Dragon City and the nine n.o.ble families of cultivation are in your hands. Please make your decision!”
Everyone’s determination was comparable to raging flames and lightning, striking the withered tree that was Lu Zhongqi.
Lu Zhongqi’s every strand of white hair and every wrinkle s.h.i.+vered.
Even though he was an ultimate expert who had reached his limits, he could not resist the invisible pressure from so many Deity Realm warriors.
“Siya!” Lu Zhongqi shouted hoa.r.s.ely.
It was unclear whether he was reminiscing about his granddaughter, who had “her brain eroded by a monster and died a long time ago,” or begging for the forgiveness of his granddaughter, who was still alive and kicking.
He had been illuminated by the crystals for decades. His eyes, which were still as bright as that of a young man and incompatible with his old face, dimmed and turned turbid in an instant.
Lu Zhongqi closed his eyes and waved his hand weakly. He sighed and said, “I’m old. I can’t keep up with the changes of the times, let alone cope with the future. The situation is even more complicated.
“After this matter is over, I will resign from all my positions in Sky Pillar Corporation, as well as the position of the President of Dragon City’s Crystal a.s.sociation. I’ll go to Dragon City University and the alliance of the five universities. I’ll take more students with me and live a peaceful life during my last days.”
Yun Feidian silently approved his proposal.
Yun Feidian was overjoyed.
“In that case, as a junior, I will do my best to serve you all!”
Yun Feidian straightened his back and stared at Lu Siya like an arrow. “Lu Siya’s strength is not to be underestimated. It won’t be easy to control the restless crowd. It won’t be possible to rely on the armed forces of Thundercloud Technology alone.
“What I mean is Universe Corporation will be pushed aside for now. Everyone from the other eight mega corporations will have to send out their people. The elite troops of the major families will form an elite mixed tactical team. When Universe Corporation’s headquarters is in chaos later, they will sneak in and accurately lock onto their target.
“It would be best if we can quietly take Lu Siya away. By the time the Azure Alliance’s riffraff reacts, we would have obtained enough evidence to prove that she’s a monster in human skin. At the very least, she has been corrupted and bewitched by the monster, forming a complete and strict chain of evidence. Then, no one will be able to say anything.
“If the secret capture fails and is discovered by the enemy, we must not hesitate at all. We must not let the benevolence of a woman ruin Dragon City’s future. No matter the price, we have to get Lu Siya, even if she’s a corpse!
“As long as we can obtain Lu Siya’s corpse, we have a hundred ways to prove that this corpse is actually a monster!”
The murderous intent in his words made even an experienced man like Lei Tianming look at him several times.
However, in such an emergency, they had no choice but to defend the common interests of the nine n.o.ble families of cultivation and the nine mega corporations.
“Agreed.”
“Yes.”
“In the name of ‘catching the monster remnants,’ we understand that there will be some collateral damage.”
“In the past, when humans and monsters fought in the downtown area, a few buildings would be inevitably destroyed and the collateral damage would amount to thousands. We can’t just let the monsters lurk and wreak havoc in the downtown area just because they are too brutal and we’re too afraid to act rashly, can we?”
“The Monster War isn’t over. For the long-term interests of the Dragon City civilization, it’s acceptable and worthwhile to make a small sacrifice at this moment!”
Many Deity Realm warriors agreed with Yun Feidian’s secret plan.
“Alright. Now, it’s time to organize specific personnel and the details of the operation!”
Yun Feidian cleared his throat and was about to speak when he suddenly noticed the faces of many Deity Realm warriors changed. They had strange expressions.
Yun Feidian was slightly stunned. While he was confused, he heard Lu Siya’s voice on the big screen behind him.
“Friends, citizens, please calm down and stop moving forward!
“I can understand how angry everyone is, but no matter what, we shouldn’t be consumed by anger. I believe that The Bright Light tragedy is a huge conspiracy, but Universe Corporation is definitely not the real culprit behind this conspiracy. Please calm down and don’t let the real culprit lead you by the nose. Don’t do anything that will make you feel bitter and resentful!”
Yun Feidian was dumbfounded.
His face, which had been full of confidence, was smeared like mud.
“How… How is this possible?”
He was as confused as Meng Chao. “Lu Siya is… is trying to stop the situation from escalating? W-Whose side is she on? What is she trying to do?” he asked in disbelief.
