This Is My Planet - Chapter 99 - Chapter 99 – Battle Between Humans and Divine Descendants

Hun Yuan’s gentle smile froze on his face as he stared coldly at Xia Guixuan without saying a word.

A goddamn celebrity, are you kidding me?

Xia Guixuan said nonchalantly: “My official duties are naturally stated in the diplomatic documents. As for whether I have additional duties, they are related to the internal affairs of the Great Xia and my personal matters, unrelated to this mission. I wonder if the Hun Priest wants to know for himself or is representing your Divine Creator?”

He thought to himself that Gongsun Jiu’s “formal diplomatic envoy” status was indeed meaningful, transforming the nature of the communication into an official exchange, providing a legitimate reason representing the Great Xia. It was a different template from his method of suppressing others with his own strength.

In reality, he was not willing to flaunt his identity as the Divine Creator to the divine descendants, as it would cause many problems.

Firstly, once his identity was exposed, human society would close its doors to him. It would be difficult to enjoy human technology freely as before, no more making videos, playing games… The little fox, as a “cohabiting girlfriend,” would likely be heavily investigated, and her divine descendant identity would also be exposed. He would have to take her away… that would ruin her life.

From this perspective, it was a good thing that Gongsun Jiu couldn’t confirm whether he was the Divine Creator. He would need to reinforce his denial later.

Secondly, within the divine descendants, there would be enormous expectations placed on the Divine Creator, potentially forcing him into becoming a template for leading the race’s development. What was this about? Abandoning the role of an Immortal Emperor in one realm, only to assume another elsewhere?

Each generation has its own blessings; do I really have to wipe the children’s butts?

This wasn’t a deadbeat dad who neglected his children. On the contrary, he opened up the wisdom of life, spread civilization and cultivation, and asked for nothing in return. This was a great favor to the life on this planet, not a responsibility. He was already satisfied not seeking the respect of a god; did he need to be a nanny?

Of course, planning to dominate and spread influence to sow discord and gain power would be enjoyable. If you want more fun, you can have it. But Xia Guixuan really didn’t have the inclination for that.

Different aspirations.

Hun Yuan didn’t know what was going through his mind and forced another smile, “Of course, I can’t represent the Divine Creator, but I’m just curious and asking questions. If the envoy doesn’t want to answer, it’s fine.”

“Then may the Second Priest take me to meet your Divine Creator?”

“I received a message that the Divine Creator will soon arrive here in person. The envoy can wait here. There’s no need for a long-distance visit.”

Xia Guixuan chuckled, “How long will it take? If he arrives after the battle is over, this mission will be meaningless.”

“If your side didn’t have Yan Wuyue, this battle would have already been over.”

Xia Guixuan admitted to this point.

If it weren’t for Yan Wuyue, the divine descendants’ attack would definitely overwhelm that general Zhang, and the fall of the southwest defense zone would be a matter of minutes. Despite it seeming like Yan Wuyue was drawn by them, if they hadn’t drawn her in, she would still have led the central army to counterattack after they captured the position. It would still be a stalemate.

Without Yan Wuyue, or even if she were turned, their battle would be much easier.

Meanwhile, in the Imperial Capital, Shang Zhaoye’s actions, if they developed as planned, could control Ling Moxue, deal with Gongsun Jiu, and use their families to provoke turmoil in both military and political circles… At the very least, as long as they kept the Galactic Fleet in check, a large-scale invasion here would overturn the situation inside and out, and they might even be able to annihilate the Great Xia with one battle.

“Your excellency, let’s observe the battle situation first?” Hun Yuan slowly floated up from the sea, and Xia Guixuan followed suit. The two of them looked at the distant battlefield from the far sea.

Mechs treaded within the divine descendants’ flame formation, heavy lasers cleaving down.

The light of flying swords came from afar and clashed with the lasers, energy splattering.

Another cultivator summoned treasures, electric lights flashing, aiming for the mech’s vulnerable spot.

A mech extended a cannon from its waist.

“Boom!”

Smoke billowed into the sky.

On the other side of the battlefield, it seemed like a giant mountain was descending from the sky, a divine technique of moving mountains and filling seas.

The steel city transformed into a giant, rising from the ground, supporting the sky and suppressing the earthquake.

After a brief stalemate, the rocks shattered, the city restored, and the earth calmed.

In the sea battlefield, Yan Wuyue snapped off the ice attack with a single knife, turned around and leaped, while quietly taking out a gun with her left hand.

“Bang!” A laser bullet hit the giant whale’s eye, which closed to block it. The aircraft roared in the sky, exploding and engulfing the giant whale in mushroom clouds.

Even the sturdy surface of the giant whale showed signs of damage.

Two dazzling lights approached from afar, driving back Yan Wuyue, who wanted to take advantage of the situation, only to find Long Ao joining the battle.

Yan Wuyue shouted sternly, “Shrink the defense line, I’ll cover the rear, and the artillery will provide cover!”

The sound of machinery on the shore reverberated through the heavens as countless siege cannons roared, so numerous that Long Ao didn’t need to hold back anymore. Along with the giant whale, they fiercely protected the other aquatic divine descendants and retreated thirty nautical miles without pause.

Yan Wuyue organized a special forces team to cover the orderly retreat of the machinery into the steel city.

“You humans are quite formidable,” Hun Yuan whispered, “We never imagined, before encountering the lost humans two hundred and fifty years ago, that there could be such a weak group of beings who, relying on what you call science, could achieve effects similar to the cultivation of divine descendants and immortals. Whether it’s the Five Elements or strength… even the soul can be simulated and countered with various strange magnetic fields and wavebands. Despite being weak in physical strength, you can almost defy the heavens.”

Xia Guixuan nodded, “Indeed.”

Even he was moved by this, sparking his curiosity about human technology. It was easy to imagine how shocked the divine descendants were at the time.

“What’s even more terrifying is that you can continue to progress, and rapidly at that. Two hundred and fifty years after you arrived on the Azure Dragon Star and absorbed our knowledge, your technology continued to advance rapidly. From the initial flagship that could barely destroy a star, to now being a standard escort for battleships. The power of these siege cannons, which once struggled to level a small hill, can now repel two Qian Yuan working together.”

Xia Guixuan asked, “Why is the Hun Priest telling me, a human, all this?”

“Are you really human?” The Hun Priest smiled, “I don’t believe humans can achieve the state of Wu Xiang. Either you are an extraterrestrial visitor or a divine descendants cultivator. Why hide it from me?”

Xia Guixuan: “…”

Pointing far away at Yan Wuyue, the Hun Priest laughed, “You’re not human, and neither is Yan Wuyue entirely. The humans we once thought were very powerful now have to rely on divine descendants to carry the main load. Isn’t this a very ironic situation? We finally understand that humans are actually still weak. They compensate for their frail bodies with intelligence, but there is no remedy for their weak will.”

Xia Guixuan asked, “Are these soldiers lacking in willpower?”

“They have willpower now, but it’s not guaranteed when they become leaders, or even their descendants. History has already proven that the immigrants who ventured into the foreign domains two hundred years ago were all remarkable, but now? They crave longevity, seek enjoyment, want everything, insatiable… divine descendants diligently cultivate, kings without even a palace. So, tell me, by the principles of the Dao of Heaven, who should be the victor and who should be the slave?”

Xia Guixuan finally smiled, “So the Second Priest is trying to persuade me to surrender?”

Hun Yuan replied naturally, “What humans can offer you, I can also provide.”

Xia Guixuan glanced at him.

He said “I can also provide,” not “the Divine Creator can also provide.”

Taking advantage of the time difference before the Azure Dragon arrived, these divine descendant priests were playing their own calculations without lagging behind.

It’s funny that you still have the face to ridicule humans…

All driven by personal desires, who’s more high-end than whom?

Xia Guixuan sighed, “So, what conditions does the Hun Priest intend to offer me? I’m quite interested to hear.”

In other words, where does your confidence come from, thinking you can subdue a Wu Xiang to listen to you, someone who doesn’t even heed the Divine Creator?

And besides, if you want to recruit people, can you at least make yourself look better? Full of snake hair, it looks very awkward. Tell me, what advantages do you have compared to the centaur girl?

Despite the complaints, Xia Guixuan was indeed intrigued because the internal affairs of the divine descendants, which he had never delved into, seemed to be slowly unfolding.
