Chapter 1057: Settling Matters of War

Zhang Lie peered carefully at Hong Xi.

Hong Xi had caused a large disturbance when she absorbed Potion #4. Now that [Black Sun] and [Eclipse] had combined, she wouldn\'t lose out to the members of Team Zenith in terms of strength.

"If you insist, I\'ll have both of you participate as well." Zhang Lie continued, "The superior world of black rain is tattered, but it\'s still one of our spoils. I\'m worried the superior worlds of antiquity will send their forces over to claim it."

The draconian sage asked, "Do we have the resources to be worried about our spoils?"

Zhang Lie shrugged. "The situation isn\'t bad enough that we shouldn\'t care about them. We should try to collect whatever we can."

This sounded somewhat greedy, but Zhang Lie had never been interested in winning a single match or battle—he wanted to win everything.

"Hong Xi, can I leave the defense of the world of black rain to you?"

Hong Xi nodded. "Of course, Master!"

Zhang Lie continued, "I\'ll send three people to the white world. Who\'s interested?"

Sun Mengmeng raised a hand. "I want to go."

"Sun Mengmeng, your framework is fire-attuned. Although it\'s somewhat of a bad fit elementally speaking, you\'d do better against the ice queen than the solar king. Knowing this, are you willing to participate?"

The solar king\'s power derived from the sun. If Sun Mengmeng were to face him, she would be fighting an uphill battle against a higher-quality version of her own element.

Sun Mengmeng nodded. "It\'s important to learn how to fight in disadvantageous situations."

Zhang Lie nodded. "Very well."

Sun Xiaowu called out, "I\'d like to go with my sister."

Zhang Hanxiang volunteered, "My framework is water-attuned, with a specialization in ice. It\'ll be a good environment for me to fight in. Let me go as well."

Zhang Lie glanced at her deeply, but he didn\'t reject her suggestion.

Zhang Lie warned, "The white world is perennially covered in ice and snow. Be careful."

Sun Mengmeng, Sun Xiaowu, and Zhang Hanxiang nodded seriously.

The draconian sage noted that Zhang Lie was very invested in this expedition, far more so than the previous one, in which the members of Team Zenith had chosen their respective targets by drawing lots. This time around, Zhang Lie was seriously valuing each combatant\'s ability and fit for their target world.

"We\'ll also send out three combatants to the world of blazing sun."

Yang Ze called out, "My framework is water-attuned. Let me go!"

Zhang Lie shook his head. "Your genetic energy will be suppressed by the environment and by the solar king himself. I intend to send you to the unclean world to scout around. Given your strength and abilities, it\'ll be easy enough for you to flee. Leave the world of blazing sun to Li Feng, Fang Yi, and Zhou Ying. Fang Yi, you\'ll be in charge of dealing with the solar king himself."

Li Feng, Fang Yi, and Zhou Ying all nodded.

Zhang Lie continued, "I\'ll handle the world of black fog myself. Once I finish up there, I\'ll head to the unclean world."

Once everyone\'s targets had been assigned, Yang Ze asked a crucial question. "Right, Captain, do you know where these worlds are located?"

"Somewhat." He had learned quite a bit during the war against the death spirits.

Yang Ze hurriedly followed up, "Then what about the parts you\'re unaware of?"

Li Zongming raised his hand. "I know roughly where these worlds are."

Zhang Lie turned to Li Zongming, who spread his arms. "After I participated in the meeting, I was given a map of the three thousand worlds, along with each king\'s jurisdiction."

Zhang Lie sighed. "Looks like we still need some information, after all."

Li Zongming asked, "From where?"

Zhang Lie replied, "Beyond the Zongming world—no, beyond all the superior worlds, there\'s someone surveilling us all. If we can ferret out this monitor from our surroundings, we\'ll be able to trade for the information we need."

The draconian sage and the scaleman king were both shocked. "A monitor?! From the superior worlds of antiquity?"

Zhang Lie shrugged. "All the superior worlds are being monitored—and some of them don\'t even know about it."

Yang Ze wondered, "Who ordered this surveillance? Some existence from a higher realm?"

Zhang Lie thought for a moment. "In some sense. He\'s the strongest among the three thousand worlds, the strongest king among the nine superior kings."

Li Zongming frowned. "You mean that we\'ve constantly been under the surveillance of the king of chaos?"

"To be more precise, we\'ve been monitored by one of his clones."

Li Zongming nodded. "It\'s no surprise, then. No one knows just how many clones the king of chaos has. I wouldn\'t be surprised if he had enough to form a troop composed solely of combatants on the level of superior kings."

Yang Ze gulped in shock. "This king of chaos isn\'t an enemy, is he?"

Zhang Lie shook his head. "Don\'t worry. If the king of chaos were an enemy, I wouldn\'t be trying to focus on offense and defense—I\'d try to run away."

Sun Mengmeng sucked in a deep breath. "Even you can\'t handle it, Captain?"

Zhang Lie hmmed. "It\'s hard to say. I\'ve never exchanged blows with the king of chaos personally, but I\'ve seen one of his clones attack. I\'m confident I can deal with his clones, but I\'m not sure about his main body. After all, if his clones are on the level of superior kings, just how strong would his main body be?"

The king of chaos would be someone to watch out for, but thankfully, he wasn\'t an enemy at present.

Li Zongming consoled, "Don\'t worry. The king of chaos wouldn\'t easily make a move. Even among the superior kings, he\'s the most transcendent of us all."

Zhang Lie continued, "The problem is to figure out how to ferret out the monitor in our vicinity..."

Li Zongming suggested, "How about we launch a full-scale search of the space in our environs?"

Zhang Lie shook his head. "If the king of chaos wants to hide, he won\'t be found by any ordinary means."

Hong Xi timidly raised her hand. "Actually, there\'s no such need. We can figure out where the other superior worlds are."

Hmm??Everyone turned to Hong Xi, who quailed a little when met with the gazes of three superior kings and a whole group of people...
