Chapter 1800 - 1799: Without Losing a Single Soldier?

No other way.

For the greater good, for the power of Shattering Void they might gain in the future, they could only give up the beauty.

The Forbidden Woman turned around and looked at Ying Haotian of the Sakura Secret World, and said, "Ying Haotian, you should have a clear idea of what kind of status your Sakura Secret World holds among the thirty‑two Inner Worlds, right?"

"Of course I understand. I do not know what orders the esteemed Forbidden Woman has?"

Ying Haotian hurriedly bent at the waist.

Although he was also one of the thirty‑two Inner Worlds, the Sakura Secret World was at the very bottom among them, constantly bullied by others, especially the Ghost Mountain World, which often wanted to wipe them out. So even though he was also a leader of an Inner World, his status was very low.

"Now your chance to earn merit has come!" The Forbidden Woman said, "We need your daughter to make a sacrifice!"

"Ah?!!"

Ying Haotian’s expression paused, an ominous premonition rising in his heart.

"What ’ah’! This is a chance for your Sakura Secret World to turn over! Once we succeed, in the near future we will be able to Shatter the Void and go to a higher world. By then, as a meritorious contributor, your power will greatly increase. You should be thanking us for giving you this opportunity!"

The Forbidden Woman said.

Ying Haotian bent at the waist and asked, "May I ask... what do you want my daughter to do?"

"Very simple—go seduce Qin Feng of the Lower Realm!"

The Forbidden Woman said.

"What?!!"

Ying Haotian’s heart jolted, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

On the way here he had already had a bad feeling, thinking that some leader of an Inner World might have set his sights on his daughter Sakura Meizi.

He hadn’t expected the situation to be even worse.

They actually wanted his daughter to go seduce someone from the Lower Realm—this was basically like making a fairy marry a beggar!

It was simply an insult to his daughter!

"No, impossible!" Ying Haotian bowed his head even lower and begged urgently, "No matter what the esteemed Forbidden Woman demands of our Inner World, I am willing to obey unconditionally, but my daughter absolutely cannot do this!"

"Hmph! In front of the grand situation, you only think of yourself? This concerns the future of all our Inner Worlds!" The Forbidden Woman said coldly.

"Exactly!"

Huan Hai also took a step forward, face icy, and said, "Think it through yourself—are you going to agree voluntarily, or wait for everyone to vote on it?"

"..."

Bitterness in Ying Haotian’s heart almost flowed out through his eyes.

Agree voluntarily?

How was that possible!

But.

If he didn’t agree, they’d have to let everyone vote; if it went to a vote, that would be even more disastrous!

No doubt about it—once it went to a vote, the other thirty‑one Inner Worlds would definitely all raise both hands in favor, because it didn’t hurt their interests in the slightest and they could even sit back and reap the benefits.

"But, but..."

Ying Haotian’s face twisted in pain; he gritted his teeth and, with a "thud," knelt before the Forbidden Woman and the others. "I beg you, esteemed Forbidden Woman, let me be a cow, a horse, anything, just don’t make my daughter go. My daughter, she, she..."

"I know, she has the Spiritual Life Bloodline, doesn’t she?" Black Ghost said from the side.

"Yes!" Knowing he could no longer conceal it, Ying Haotian continued to plead bitterly, "You all know that once a Spiritual Life Bloodline has been with a man, the bloodline will awaken, and then she will suffer great torment. So I beg you all, show mercy, please don’t make my daughter go, I’m begging you..."

"Hmph! If she didn’t have the Spiritual Life Bloodline, we wouldn’t be sending her. There’s no helping it; the bigger picture comes first. You’re sacrificing a small bit of benefit to gain a much greater one—this is actually very beneficial for you!" Black Ghost said.

Ying Haotian and the others all wore cold looks, knowing that begging was useless now.

He steeled his heart, then immediately stood up and took out a grain‑of‑rice‑sized Golden Bean, laughing loudly as he said to everyone, "You’re forcing me! If you insist on making my daughter go, I...I’ll drag you all into Mutual Destruction!!"

Everyone’s eyes widened in shock when they saw the Golden Bean in his hand.

They knew the power of that Golden Bean.

Even though each of them possessed High Grade Immortal cultivation, if that Golden Bean exploded, even if they didn’t die, they’d shed a layer of skin!

"Y‑you, don’t be impulsive... we can talk this out..."

Zangtian and the others were worried that in his current emotional state he might actually detonate it, and they all began trying to talk him down.

Only the Forbidden Woman still wore an iron‑blue expression; she didn’t retreat. Instead, she fixed her eyes on Ying Haotian and walked toward him step by step.

Seeing this, Ying Haotian shouted, "I’m not joking—if it’s for my daughter, I will detonate it!!"

As he spoke.

He was about to circulate his Inner Strength to detonate the Golden Bean.

At this moment, the Forbidden Woman’s pupils suddenly contracted!

It seemed as if an invisible force suddenly slammed into Ying Haotian.

Ying Haotian’s expression froze, his body feeling as though it had been locked in place; he couldn’t move at all...

"Scared me to death! I didn’t expect him to actually have a Golden Bean on him. Good thing the Forbidden Woman is so formidable and locked him down..." Zangtian let out a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Taking advantage of the fact that Ying Haotian couldn’t move, Huan Hai hurried over and snatched the Golden Bean away.

Black Ghost cursed at this moment, "Damn it! You actually wanted to blow us up? Watch me kill you!!"

As he spoke, his palm turned into a ghost claw and struck toward Ying Haotian’s heart.

"Wait!!"

Ying Haotian’s daughter Sakura Meizi already had tears blurring her vision. "If you so much as hurt a single hair on my father, I’ll die before I ever do anything for you!"

"Oh? So you’re agreeing?"

A hint of a curve lifted the corner of Huan Hai’s mouth.

Ying Haotian forced out words with difficulty, wanting to persuade her not to, but she only shed tears.

Clearly, for the sake of her family, her mind was already made up!

...

Night fell.

The entire Vine Dragon Mountain was still bustling everywhere.

On the Dragon Sect’s side, they had already arranged the order in which all their halls’ people would enter the Wilderness World; the Array Formation Hall was also rushing to set up Transmission Arrays, Defensive Arrays, and Spirit Talismans imbued with Purple Cloud Immortal Power.

On Qin Feng’s side, he was still feeling depressed.

A whole day had passed and he still hadn’t found the owner of the Spiritual Life Bloodline. If none of these more than five million Cultivators had it, then it would be extremely difficult to find.

This rare bloodline sometimes only appeared once in several hundred years; who knew if it would even exist in this era.

"If there’s really no other way, I can only wait until the Array in the Wilderness World is activated tomorrow, then I’ll have to go to the Mermaid Clan to look for Nami. I can’t keep dragging this out." Qin Feng said to Qi Ling.

"I know. You’re staying here because you’re worried the Inner World people will cause trouble. Don’t worry, leave this place to me, you can go first." Qi Ling said, "Right now, all of our injuries have fully healed, and the reformed Heavenly King Palace has even stronger cohesion than before. We’ve also set up some Defense Towers recently. I believe that if we fight the Inner World, the chances of winning or losing are fifty‑fifty."

"No, what I want is a hundred percent victory, and victory without losing a single soldier." Qin Feng said.

"This..."

Qi Ling broke into a cold sweat.

What she had just said about a fifty‑fifty chance was already a bit of boasting; she hadn’t expected Qin Feng’s demand to be even more over the top.

The opponents were people from the Inner World, more than half of them in the Immortal Realm.

So, let alone winning without losing a single soldier—even if they sacrificed everyone and still managed to win this war, that would already be a luxury...
