[Your saturation strike was highly effective.]
[This group of the most elite cultivators from Blazing Star had survived the perils of the battlefield and endured the intellectual battles of officialdom, yet in the end, they all fell at your hands.]
[You can't really blame them for capsizing in a ditch.]
[Who could have imagined that their own emperor was a human in disguise, and had been from the very beginning? No matter how they investigated, they could never find any issue, it was practically a huge bug!]
[Who could also have imagined that this fake emperor would be so ruthless, using the entire planet's resources to deal with them.]
[Amidst the raging inferno, the Temporary Palace was reduced to scorched earth.]
[The fire burned for three days and three nights.]
[The outside world was completely unaware of this.]
[Because you used formations to create illusions around the area. When people outside passed through this region, all they saw was a perfectly normal, scenic, heavily guarded Imperial Temporary Palace.]
[Passersby wouldn't dare approach the Temporary Palace.]
[Because those who had the guts and qualification to approach the Temporary Palace were now lying dead inside.]
["They should all be dead by now..."]
[Maintaining so many high-quality formations running at high intensity for three days consumed a terrifying amount of Source Stones.]
[Although you still had some in your Pot Heaven space, you didn't want to overdo the saturation. The less you wasted, the better.]
[Just as you were about to investigate, a streak of dark light flew out from the raging fire.]
[Ya Dada. He wasn't dead. And after three days of struggle, he had finally escaped from that hell.]
[His entire body was scorched black, his back was riddled with all manner of weapons, and several savage beasts were clamped onto his rear, refusing to let go.]
[He looked more bedraggled than a beggar. There was not a trace left of a sitting Chancellor of the court.]
["Hahaha... I, I escaped! I finally! Escaped!!"]
[Turning around, Ya Dada saw you waiting in silence.]
["You... you... you..."]
[Ya Dada was so furious he couldn't speak.]
[You applauded.]
["Good, good, good. Truly worthy of the Grand Elder. You must have embezzled quite a few treasures over the years, haven't you? I set up such an inescapable net, and you still managed to fight your way out. Tsk tsk tsk. If I'd known, I should have robbed you clean first before killing you."]
[Ya Dada looked at the hellish scene over at the Temporary Palace, then turned to look at you.]
[He confirmed one thing: he was finished.]
["Who exactly are you? Why are you doing this!"]
[You held a human world Immortal Artifact in hand, the Celestial Empress's relic, the Scarlet Celestial Emperor's divine armament, and a body empowered by countless trait tags, while your opponent was half-dead before you.]
[In this state, the other party asked you a question.]
[Should you answer him?]
[You should.]
[This perfectly explains why villains in novels tend to talk so much.]
[If no one knew what I did, wouldn't it all be for nothing?]
["Think carefully about what I've done all these years. If you can't guess who I am, you can at least guess which race I belong to, right?"]
[Ya Dada, with his severely burned head, figured it out in an instant.]
["You're Human Race!"]
["Ooh ooh ooh, correct~"]
[As you spoke, you dispelled the Si Duoduo transformation and reverted to Chen Dong's appearance.]
[Poor Ya Dada. He thought he'd seen your true face, but it was just another layer of disguise.]
["Where are you from? Vermilion Violet Star? Guantang Star? Or Madong Star!"]
[The planets he named were all First-tier Stars, and all had relatively powerful Human Race factions.]
[Clearly, Ya Dada didn't believe that an ordinary planet could produce a Human Race cultivator of your combat caliber.]
["Fortune Star."]
["Fu, fu, fu what?"]
[Ya Dada had never even heard of this planet. How pitiful, this group of Blazing Star's elites had been played to death by a country bumpkin from some unknown backwater.]
[Even the entire Blazing Star had fallen into his control.]
[And this human was able to obtain all of this entirely because of their group of Alien Races who had risked life and limb to conquer it for him.]
[Thinking of this, Ya Dada felt he shouldn't be alive anymore. He might as well kill himself.]
["You win... hehe, Human Race... I should have realized, should have realized! During the war, when you wanted to support the Human Race to join the fight, I should have realized!"]
[Ya Dada now surveyed the entire planet's situation, and his heart turned cold.]
[Through their efforts of swinging the butcher's blade until it smoked, they had successfully reduced the Alien Race population to less than one-tenth of the Human Race.]
[Although there were no humans among the core officials of the court, because the Alien Race population was so small, humans occupied more than half of the local official positions.]
[In other words, the entire ruling class had been quietly replaced, and the grassroots level was completely hollowed out!]
[Of the reports and documents about local affairs that the court received every day, how many were real? How many were fake?]
[Furthermore, it was still their own people who, over the years, had supported the Human Race without expecting any return, and now the Human Race had surpassed the Alien Race in the number of mid-to-low-tier cultivators.]
[This gap would only widen at an accelerating rate.]
[Once the timeline stretched longer, the number of High-Grade human cultivators would inevitably catch up as well.]
[By then, the power disparity between the two sides would be completely disproportionate!]
[This planet now appeared to be in the hands of the Alien Race, but the scales of power were rapidly tipping toward the Human Race.]
["Human Race! You've only won for now! Sooner or later, someone will discover the true situation on Blazing Star, and when that happens, someone countless times stronger than you will come to punish you! The Human Race will never have a tomorrow!"]
[You smiled and pointed at Ya Dada.]
["Well said. But you can win countless times, I only need to win once!"]
[Ya Dada didn't understand what your last sentence meant.]
[He didn't need to understand anymore either.]
[With a single strike of the Plasmolysis Palm, you splattered him into a mess of blood vessels, organs, bones, and muscles. His heart was even still beating, his blood even still surging endlessly.]
[After a careful investigation, you confirmed that all the high-ranking Alien Race officials in the Temporary Palace had perished without a trace, dead beyond any doubt.]
[Thinking back to your previous life, you had been chased until you were pissing your pants by the Alien Race on Fortune Star and Blazing Star.]
[Now look at this life. You alone had chased the Alien Race until they were pissing their pants!]
[Ten Thousand Souls Banner spoke up excitedly.]
["Hey hey hey! Bro, bro, that ruthless plucking of flowers was beautifully done!"]
["Watch your wording. This is me uprooting the mountain of bureaucracy oppressing my fellow humans."]
["Alright, alright, so here's the thing. Right now the court's ministers are all gone. For this massive Heavenly Dragon Nation to keep running, how can we do it without a court cabinet!"]
[You pretended not to understand and looked at this fellow.]
["True. We need to promote a batch of trusted confidants as soon as possible. A batch of guys who absolutely listen to me and don't care about guarding against the Human Race."]
[Ten Thousand Souls Banner twisted its banner surface into a hand and pointed at itself.]
["Look at me! Look at me!
Since I was young, I've had a dream, and that's to be the Chancellor of a nation!
Above, to share the burdens of the sovereign! Below, to bring fortune to the common people!
I am absolutely loyal to you, bro! Whatever you tell me to do, I'll do!
I am extremely friendly to the Human Race! I love humans to death! I used to specialize in collecting human souls!
Also, I recommend the Demon Refining Pot as the Grand Palace Steward!"]
