spooky invasion

Chapter 1529 Public opinion fermentation
About an hour later, Jiang Yue stood at the highest point of the valley, looking at the tragic battle scene in front of him, and felt refreshed.

In the past hour, they took advantage of favorable conditions and set up several traps, luring in the first four masters of the Baoshu tribe who arrived and successfully eliminated them.

It was no wonder that the four masters of the Baoshu clan were fooled. They copied the skills to simulate the Grand Elder Yin Qiao, and with the help of the Scholar Tongye and the Scholar Yun Geng as accomplices, the four masters of the Baoshu clan were completely unprepared and fell into the trap.

They didn't understand why the ancestor of the Baoshu tribe would attack them until they were attacked by the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao transformed by Jiang Yue. Wasn't it because they called for help from the ancestor of the Baoshu tribe, the most senior Supreme Elder in the tribe, that they came to support him with all their strength?
If other masters of the Baoshu tribe sent out a call for help, these masters of extremely high stature might not be so gracious, or at least they would not rush here so desperately.

After all, isn't it all for the sake of your treasure tree clan ancestor's face? But you, old thing, actually plotted against us? What's the plot? They didn't even figure out why until they died. They didn't expect that the treasure tree clan ancestor they saw was no longer the real one.

The two guys, Tongye University Scholar and Yun Geng University Scholar, were also numb at this moment. Ever since they decided to lie down, they knew that their fate was no longer in their own hands.

Now we are just going further and further down this road.

No matter what, they had no choice. Especially after seeing so many masters of the Baoshu Clan die one after another because of their scheme, they knew that their path in the inner world had become narrow.

Of course Jiang Yue could see that the two of them looked like they were worried about something.

He looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "Relax, you two. This may not be a good thing for you in the short term, but in the long run, it may not be a bad thing."

Scholar Yun Geng smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Shuigong, no matter it's good or bad, you understand me. I just want to survive and don't want my old mother to be left alone in her old age."

It's true that although this is a sad story, Yun Geng is very sincere. He didn't hide anything, nor did he make any excuses for his disgraceful behavior.

Jiang Yue appreciated this point.

"Brother Yun Geng, I'm not trying to comfort you. I'm sure you can see my origins, and I'm sure you also know the grievances between the surface world and the inner world. From the perspective of the surface humans, our goal has never been to completely eliminate the inner world. Our goal is to stop the war."

"Stop the war?" Scholar Yun Geng was a little surprised. "Is that all?"

He found it hard to believe that the feud between the surface world and the inner world had lasted for two eras. This was a battle for homeland, and hadn't the two sides always wanted to destroy each other before they could stop? How could it be so simple to just stop the war?

"Don't be so quick to doubt. Think about it. The surface world is indeed occupied by us humans, but in the last era, it was also the home of the Earth Core Tribe. Strictly speaking, this is our common home. If we must fight to the death, the final result may be that both sides will be exterminated and perish together, turning the entire Gaia planet into ruins."

"I believe that the inner world must have some ability to destroy civilization, and the surface world also has this ability. In this case, since war is inevitable, we must avoid fighting to the point of exhaustion, to the point of desperation, or even to the point of mutual destruction. I am a peace advocate in the surface world, and I also hope that there are a group of peace advocates in the inner world. And I think you two can fully serve as representatives of the peace advocates."

Peace advocates?
When these three words were spoken, their status suddenly rose several notches. The surrender faction suddenly became the peace faction, and they seemed to have become more noble.

This is not the point. The point is that what others mentioned is indeed the case.

When will this unprecedented war end? Will it really end in exhaustion and destruction?

This is absolutely irrational. At least, neither Tongye University Scholar nor Yungeng University Scholar have such a crazy mentality. In fact, there are not many people with such a crazy mentality in the inner world. They are just some stubborn people in power who think that compromising with the surface world is a huge shame.

To put it bluntly, they just can't let go of their high and mighty noble bloodline attitude. This is mainly the case with some of the top leaders of the ten golden clans.

Although the senior officials of the three great academies also have similar mentalities, they are not as stubborn as these people.

"You two, let's think about it calmly. The war in the inner earth world is doomed to fail. The surface world may win a tragic victory, but if the war really develops to the point of mutual destruction, who will be the real winner? You in the inner earth world cannot accept the assimilation of the genes of the surface humans. Have you ever thought that the surface humans are actually merging with the inner earth race?"

The Tongye Grand Secretary had been silent the whole time, but he couldn't help but ask, "Your Excellency, are you trying to comfort us? Why do I feel that your words are totally untenable?"

"Haha, think about it from another perspective. The early humans on the surface were not good at training, and their talent points were not in their individual martial arts. But now, the surface humans are just like the people in the inner world, and individual martial arts have become the mainstream of the surface society. Those who cannot complete the evolution have been eliminated in the strange changes. The current surface humans are essentially not much different from the people in the inner world. It's just that there is no obvious bloodline stratification at present, and there is no clear hierarchy like in the inner world."

"In comparison, the mobility of the inner world is actually very bad, and many barriers in the inner world should be broken. The social structure that only relies on bloodline should also be overturned. Why do people with noble bloodlines get all the benefits from birth? Whether they are mediocre or not, they can enjoy countless resources. Once the upward channels of the grassroots are blocked, this model is bound to be unhealthy. The surface world originally had a similar trend, but the reshuffle of the weird era broke this pattern. I am not exaggerating to say that the surface world is actually superior to the inner world in every aspect. The surface world is willing to integrate with the inner world, which is actually a concession in itself."

"Yes, it cannot be called a gift, but it is definitely a concession! It is a kind of absorption of the backward by the advanced. You must recognize this clearly. Do not think that it is a shame to be genetically assimilated by the humans on the surface."

"This kind of fusion actually reduces the influence of the bloodline theory and weakens the decisive role of bloodline in society. It is a kind of balance for the entire society. The Earth Core Tribe may lose some bloodline advantages, but what they gain is the progress of civilization, the renewal of models, and the hope of returning to the surface world. It is the transition from barbarism to civilization, from underground to the surface, and from darkness to light!"

It must be said that Jiang Yue's theory does make some sense, at least it is based on the current situation.

"You may think that I am bragging and exaggerating. However, what advantages do the Earth Core Clan have over the surface humans? Their cultivation talents are shrinking. As for their bravery and bloodiness? After the surface humans were eliminated, there is no one who is not brave among those who are still alive."

"Do you have any advantages over the surface world? You can't even imagine them! The inner world is like a frog in a well, still living in the fantasy of the last era, and has never faced up to its increasingly corrupt status quo. The three major palaces pursue fame and fortune as their primary goal, and the ten golden tribes are high above. They have never thought about how to ease the increasingly fierce conflicts in the inner world, nor have they taken any effective measures to ease them. I am not exaggerating. Even if the surface channel is not opened and the conflicts between the two places do not erupt, the inner world is not far from large-scale chaos. After all, the inner world has never had a strict and healthy social structure, nor an advanced scientific management model. This is the biggest gap between the inner world and the surface world, and most people can't see it at all!"

The Grand Secretary of Tongye said quietly, "Mr. Shuigong, although what you said is a bit exaggerated, the general direction is not wrong. It is really the case, and there are some things we cannot deny."

"However, it is not something that Yun Geng and I can do to convince those stubborn old people. Those who are truly in power in the inner world..."

Scholar Yun Geng also said, "That's true. It would be very difficult to get the ten golden tribes and the three great academies to accept reconciliation with the surface world and willingly integrate with it."

"Is it harder than dying together?"

"Not really, unless all these stubborn old guys die."

Jiang Yue said calmly: "Perhaps, they should have died long ago. The fact that these old stubborn people are still alive is the biggest problem of the Earth's core. Today, we killed this Supreme Elder Yin Qiao, which is equivalent to removing a cancer from the Earth's core."

“Having said that, there are probably dozens of people like Grand Elder Yin Qiao among the ten golden clans and the three great academies…”

"What are you afraid of? Kill one today, kill one tomorrow, and sooner or later you will kill them all. Besides, there are also knowledgeable people in the inner world. I think Grand Scholar Linghua of Taiyi Academy is a moderate. If the war situation is unstoppable, I believe that people like Grand Scholar Linghua can definitely be won over."

The Grand Secretary Tongye was moved and said, "If a great figure like Grand Secretary Linghua is willing to join the peace faction, I believe things will definitely turn around."

"I know that Grand Secretary Bi Yao and Grand Secretary Ling Hua are like sisters. The two of them have always had very close positions," Grand Secretary Yun Geng also added.

The Grand Secretary Bi Yao he mentioned is another Grand Secretary with a purple gold ribbon of the Taiyi Academy, ranking after the chief Grand Secretary Jiu Xiu and before the Grand Secretary Ling Hua and the Grand Secretary Tong Ye.

Tongye echoed, "That's right. In Taiyi Academy, Grand Scholar Biyao and Grand Scholar Linghua have always held the same position. If you are sure you can convince Grand Scholar Linghua, then half of the work will be done in Taiyi Academy."

Jiang Yue smiled slightly: "No problem, my next step is to meet Grand Secretary Linghua in the surface world."

The Tongye Grand Secretary could not help but remind him, "Sir, the Linghua Grand Secretary is a good man. If you guys attack him, I really can't bear to be the accomplice. Please be merciful."

"In the surface world, you don't need to be an insider. You can just stay in the inner world."

When they heard this, they felt a little relieved.

"Alright, the Baoshu tribe's troops will be here soon, we have to retreat!"

The two men felt as if they had been granted amnesty. They did not bother to be polite with Jiang Yue and the others and quickly evacuated.

No matter how to explain when we return, we must at least retreat first, otherwise we will be encountered by the reinforcements of the Baoshu tribe and it will be difficult to explain everything.

……

Two days later, the first few members who escaped from Shengtian, after surviving many dangers, fled back to their respective territories and brought the news they knew back to their respective forces.

The ancestor of the Baoshu tribe, the supreme elder Yin Qiao, actually colluded with the humans on the surface and set up an ambush to decapitation plan the team, almost wiping out their entire team.

Among the escort team of more than a thousand people, with so many elite soldiers and nearly twenty talented team members, only three escaped, and the rest all died in that nightmarish valley.

This news was undoubtedly like a bombshell, causing a great uproar in the entire Earth's core world. And there were actually survivors following closely behind, and they were the Tongye University Scholar and Yun Geng Scholar of the Taiyi Academy. One of them was the deputy commander-in-chief of the operation, and the other was the head coach of the escort team. They also fled back to the Taiyi Academy in a panic and brought back similar news.

We were ambushed in the valley, but someone in the team was there to help us. All the routes of our team's actions were completely predicted by the enemy.

Although Taiyi Academy did not specifically mention that Supreme Elder Yinqiao of the Baoshu Clan was the culprit, they also mentioned that they did sense a powerful Absolute Life Field at the scene.

Because they were responsible for guarding the teleportation array and were not on the main battlefield, they were not the main targets of the opponent's attack, but they also encountered attacks from powerful opponents.

Thanks to the bloody battle, under the protection of the Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering, the two of them managed to break through the siege and escape. As for the Bachelor of Hydraulic Engineering, his whereabouts are currently unknown, and it is unknown whether he is alive or dead.

Public opinion from all sides soon erupted, and almost all the criticism was directed at the Baoshu clan.

The Baoshu tribe also had their share of grievances. Not only did they lose the totem-level figure Grand Elder Yin Qiao, but several other Baoshu tribe masters also went to the battlefield and died.

The Baoshu tribe was already a huge victim, and now they were being wronged, so they were naturally furious. But being angry was useless, and they had to compromise and explain their grievances to the entire Earth Core World, saying that they had never colluded with foreign enemies.

The traitor who colluded with foreign enemies must be someone else.

But the Baoshu tribe's aggrieved excuses did not win much forgiveness. If the traitor is not your Baoshu tribe, could it be these people who escaped?
These people belong to different forces. Can they unite together to frame your Baoshu clan?
