The leaders of each region left, but Long Tianze and others stayed behind, along with Long Huang, Feng Luan, Xi'er, and others who were close to Jiang Chen.

"Young Master, has something happened?"

Long Tianze asked softly.

He thought that Jiang Chen's unusual behavior wasn't due to what Jiang Chen had mentioned earlier; everyone could see that.

"I've been puzzled by one thing: the Twelve Archipelago Powers are far stronger than us. Their Divine Infant Realm cannot have just a few people. If their Divine Infant Realm simultaneously entered, we would have no chance to fight back."

"But why don't they do it? And this year's siege has been really bewildering!"

Giving everyone a glance, Jiang Chen said solemnly, "A year of siege, without our top experts, although they might be worried we would fight to the death, this reason is too far-fetched."

"Why fear a fight to the death if they send a large number of Divine Infants to attack our cities?"

"They can send Divine Infant realm bodies into Yuan Star; can't they send more? Now the space of Yuan Star is stable enough to accommodate early-stage Divine Infant Realm experts!"

"This..."

Everyone was stunned, glancing at each other, their brows tightly furrowed.

Jiang Chen didn't speak before, and they hadn't realized that there truly were many loopholes in this!

"Could it be they're waiting for something?"

Long Tianze tentatively asked.

"Waiting!"

Jiang Chen repeated, looking up at Long Tianze, "Waiting for what? Can't they attack and wait? It would be the same if they ruled Yuan Star and then waited, wouldn't it? Must they fight us while waiting?"

"This..."

Long Tianze was at a loss for an explanation.

"Could it be they're waiting for something that they can't find themselves, and need us to find it instead? And they start the war to make us feel urgent, so we quickly find that thing?"

Feng Luan proposed a hypothesis.

Jiang Chen furrowed his brows tightly; Feng Luan's hypothesis made some sense, but what could need a war to make us feel urgent?

"Mr. Jiang, I think we don't need to worry about those things. Since they are not launching a decisive battle now, we can train our people through the war, quickly enhance our strength; once we are capable of fully confronting them, won't this problem become irrelevant?"

Long Huang spoke softly.

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in mind, staring directly at Long Huang.

Long Huang was surprised, blinked and looked at Feng Luan beside him, hesitantly saying, "Did I... say something wrong?"

"No! You didn't say anything wrong!"

Jiang Chen suddenly raised his hand, "Enhancing strength! War is the best training ground, it can hone our combat experience and rapidly enhance our strength, they... want us to enhance our strength?!"

Saying this, Jiang Chen became unsure again!

"They want us to enhance our strength? That's..."

"This makes no sense!"

"Yes! Why would they want to help us enhance our strength indirectly?"

"Could they be using us for military training then?"

Everyone began to discuss.

Jiang Chen closed his eyes, carefully recalling the events since large numbers of descendents started appearing.

Descendants appeared, formed powers to want to rule Yuan Star, but the various forces didn't completely cooperate; those were mostly ones left behind before or had descended before!

When that batch of forces left... the Heavenly Dao was collapsing!

And now, spiritual energy resurges, the Heavenly Dao is reborn, and they started to create a spatial battlefield after the resurgence, they initiated battles on the battlefield post-Heavenly Dao rebirth, so their purpose is…

"Heavenly Dao!"

Jiang Chen suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone was stunned, looking at Jiang Chen in surprise, eyes filled with confusion, Heavenly Dao? What's wrong with Heavenly Dao?

"Elder Long, does Lord Ancestral Dragon's memory have anything concerning Heavenly Dao? Especially the new Heavenly Dao?"

Jiang Chen suddenly turned to Long Tianze.

Long Tianze frowned slightly, carefully recalling before speaking softly, "Regarding Heavenly Dao... the recorded things in Lord Ancestral Dragon's memory mostly instruct me to protect Yuan Star and find you; as for Heavenly Dao..."

"Right, I almost forgot! Lord Ancestral Dragon once asked me to inform you about something, he said, the newly born Heavenly Dao must have deficiencies, and it needs to be supplemented to truly form!"

Long Tianze seemed to remember something, and said in surprise, "Heavenly Dao cannot be mastered, but it can become an object of control before fully forming. If one controls a Heavenly Dao, it's equivalent to controlling this world."

Long Tianze became increasingly excited, "All forces in the world are entirely under its master's control, remember to inform the Dragon Descendant to quickly activate the formation. The formation is not only Yuan Star's last safeguard but also a method to complete the new Heavenly Dao!"

"This..."

"Could it be..."

"Damn!"

"They want to control the Heavenly Dao!?"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Jiang Chen was dumbfounded, staring foolishly at Long Tianze.

Control the Heavenly Dao!?

My gosh! What the heck? The Heavenly Dao can be controlled!?

"Wait!"

You Xuan questioned, "If they want to control the Heavenly Dao, wouldn't they at least dare to attack Yuan Star?"

Everyone paused again, once more becoming baffled.

"The Heavenly Dao is deficient!"

Jiang Chen's breathing became rapid; "I think I figured it out! The Heavenly Dao is deficient, but we currently can't perceive the defect, meaning that the current Heavenly Dao hasn't shown its flaws yet. To reveal the defect of Heavenly Dao..."

Jiang Chen's face became extremely grim, brows tightly furrowed; he seemed to have guessed why the Twelve Archipelago Powers were acting this way!

"Young Master, what are you thinking?"

Long Tianze asked softly.

Jiang Chen's eyes flickered, lightly shook his head, "Nothing, nothing! Everyone... return to your bodies, Elder Long, take everyone to guard at the channel's entrance, take turns with Divine Infant Detachment to observe the opponent's movements. If they launch a large-scale attack, contact me immediately. I and Elder You will go back to continue searching for the remaining Secret Realms, striving to find all items to activate the formation as soon as possible."

Hastily leaving a sentence, Jiang Chen directly dashed out of the conference room.

You Xuan was stunned, quickly flying up to follow, leaving Long Tianze and others looking at each other in the conference room!

"This... What did Mr. Jiang think of? Why is it..."

Long Huang opened his mouth confusedly.

Everyone was full of confusion and bewilderment, only Long Tianze, brows tightly furrowed, carefully recalling the dialogue just now, gradually, his eyes showed a shocked expression, which then immediately dissipated!

Long Tianze fell into deep thought, with everyone else discussing things, no one noticed his anomaly!
