When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 686 - 280 Peacock War God

After Li Xiu left the office, Li Changyin emerged from the inner room and sat opposite Han Minghui.

"He didn’t say anything," Han Minghui said as she poured a cup of tea for Li Changyin.

"The most troubling is when nothing is said," Li Changyin replied.

"In the technicians’ team, only two people have the ability to suppress the Heavenly Flying Gate and the Great Sound Gate. Jing Li is one, Li Qingyi is another, Li Xiu has no one else to use," Han Minghui said.

"Jing Li doesn’t matter, Li Qingyi definitely can’t go, even if she wants to, Li Xiu wouldn’t dare let her. Li Xiu himself can’t go either, unless the Guild President intervenes, otherwise Li Xiu can’t resolve this knot; only the Guild President can help him unravel it," Li Changyin replied.

"Are you really sure that Li Xiu has no connection with the Guild President?" Han Minghui stared at Li Changyin.

"You should know as well, ever since Li Qingyi was born, the Guild President has been aging steadily, unlike before. If Li Xiu was also related to him, I would be quite pleased," Li Changyin said slowly.

"If it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t risk doing this kind of thing," Han Minghui sighed, "I hope the result is as we predict."

"If things are really as we predict, what are your plans?" Li Changyin asked, his gaze intense as he looked at Han Minghui.

"Whatever your plan is, mine will follow suit," Han Minghui said, flashing a bright smile as she brushed the long hair beside her cheek.

Li Changyin smiled and said nothing more.

After returning to Courtyard Seven, Li Xiu informed everyone about the technicians’ team needing to guard the Heavenly Flying Gate and the Great Sound Gate.

"Isn’t Han Minghui clearly setting us up? Places like the Heavenly Flying Gate and the Great Sound Gate can only be suppressed with the Light Base, even the Super Spirit struggles, where does the technicians’ team have the ability to suppress such places?" Jiuxiao Yun snorted coldly, "You should go to the Guild President for justice, this kind of bullying isn’t right."

"Perhaps Han Minghui is just waiting for me to go to the Guild President," Li Xiu said softly.

"What do you mean? Do you mean Han Minghui is distributing tasks as per the Guild President’s wishes?" Jiuxiao Yun asked, slightly taken aback.

Li Xiu shook his head, "It shouldn’t be the Guild President’s wishes. I don’t know the reason, it’s just a feeling."

"A feeling? This is absurd, at this point, who cares about feelings? If you aren’t going to the Guild President, how do you plan to resolve this?" Jiuxiao Yun said disdainfully, "Do you intend for us to guard? That’s suicide. Asking the Magic Armor Master to guard? That’s not even considered suicide, it’s pushing people to their death."

"Jing Li should be able to guard the Heavenly Flying Gate," Li Xiu pondered.

"What about the Great Sound Gate? Do you plan to guard it yourself? I won’t go there to die," Jiuxiao Yun directly stated his stance.

"I’ll guard it myself," Li Xiu replied.

"You’re going to guard it? What will happen to the technicians’ team then? Three years is a long time to be away from the Great Sound Gate, can the technicians’ team survive without the Commander? Without the Commander, the technicians’ team would fall apart, and anyone could bully us." Jiuxiao Yun argued.

"The technicians’ team is different from other teams, even if it’s not for three years, I have the authority to adjust the personnel guarding the Trial Gate," Li Xiu’s gaze swept over the faces of Sha Chu, Ah Fei, Chu Jun, and others, then continued, "So you must grow quickly, once you advance to the Light Base, you can replace me."

"Forget it, even if I advance to the Light Base, I won’t replace you guarding that terrible place. The Great Sound Gate offers no resources we need, guarding it yields no benefit, it’s a waste of life," Jiuxiao Yun said angrily, "I don’t understand, why can’t you, as the Commander, go to the Guild President for justice? Didn’t the Guild President support you before?"

"Indeed, I cannot. If everything needs the Guild President to resolve, why am I even the Commander?" Li Xiu replied calmly, "If I can’t handle this issue, do I even deserve to be the Commander?"

"I’ll replace you once I advance to the Light Base," Ah Fei said.

Chu Jun smiled, "Ah Fei, you’re far from the Light Base, let me do it instead. I’ve already prepared the resources, and within a year I can advance to the Light Base, then I’ll replace you."

"One year is still too long, too much can happen in the absence of the Commander," Sha Chu said, contemplating.

"I’ll push myself, strive to advance to the Light Base within six months. With the Light Planting Technique and resources piled up, there’s a chance," Chu Jun replied.

"Still too long." Sha Chu shook his head, "The technicians’ team can maintain the current situation because the Commander supports it. Without the Commander, compared to the other six teams, the technicians’ team is much weaker. If the Guild President doesn’t intervene, the technicians’ team will suffer. If we wait to approach the Guild President later, it’ll be the same as going now."

"Neither this nor that, what do you propose?" Chu Jun spread his hands, at a loss.

"Give me three months, then I’ll replace you," Sha Chu said unexpectedly.

"You?" Everyone looked at Sha Chu with surprise.

Sha Chu was always very low-key, handling affairs with skill, but in terms of cultivation, everyone thought she was very weak. Even with three months, or even three years, they didn’t believe she could advance to the Light Base. She wasn’t Chu Jun, how could she have so many resources?
