Chapter 184: 184 Yunxia, stop deceiving yourselves.
Yu Jian, who hadn’t left long ago, asked, "What did you scan from her?"
The Heaven’s Mandate System was silent for a while before it said, "Most of the data involves privacy. Even I can’t scan that. It’s all surface information, as I’ve told you before."
Yu Jian was somewhat surprised. "You can’t see the opponent’s card deck and Points data?"
The Heaven’s Mandate System replied, "That is all in the Heart of the World’s database. Do you think it’s like cabbages on the roadside that you can look at whenever you want?"
Yu Jian snorted coldly. "See? I told you. Even if this serves as a warning to her, she wouldn’t dare do anything to us."
If the Heaven’s Mandate System were a person, a vein would be throbbing on its forehead. She clearly knows you have a system that’s difficult to deal with. How idiotic would she have to be to openly make a move against you? Just by looking at Wen Jiang’s eyes, one can tell she’s probably thinking of something devious.
"Even so, what of it?" Yu Jian laughed proudly. "I’ve said before, with you here, nothing will happen. With such powerful support like you, why should I worry about her?"
"..."
The Heaven’s Mandate System didn’t know if this woman’s reliance on it was a good thing. It really suspected the Heart of the World had provided false information; otherwise, why would it have chosen Yu Jian the moment it arrived in this world? No matter how one looked at it, Yu Jian didn’t possess the qualifications of a Chosen One. Especially over these past twenty years; if it hadn’t desperately pulled her along, she wouldn’t have reached this point.
Yu Jian then said, "Didn’t you say you wanted to deal with her by devouring her system? When will you take action?"
The Heaven’s Mandate System snorted coldly. "Haven’t you heard of fattening the sheep before slaughtering it? She’s only A-Level. What’s the rush? She probably still has many cards she hasn’t created. We should at least wait until she reaches S Rank before making a move."
Yu Jian, who always preferred direct threats, furrowed her beautiful brows and said, "Why not let me reach an agreement with her? Now that she knows my identity, I can make a deal with her. If Hua Zhuo sees me interacting with her, wouldn’t that make her furious?"
The Heaven’s Mandate System almost laughed from exasperation. You’re truly a genius. Why don’t you go back and ask her if she’s willing to agree? It wouldn’t infuriate Hua Zhuo, but this damn woman was about to infuriate *it*!
However, foolish as she was, Yu Jian still realized that the Heaven’s Mandate System had its reasons for insisting against it, so she didn’t go back to negotiate with Wen Jiang.
Yu Jian’s appearance this time was enough for Wen Jiang to take serious note of her.
Wary of the system Yu Jian possessed, Wen Jiang keenly felt the need to advance to S Rank as soon as possible.
Participating in the competition to make A-Rank Cards, even SSR Cards, is the best opportunity. Yu Jian didn’t make a move; her system probably reminded her. The two systems could have had no interaction. Why did Yu Jian rashly come looking for me?
Wen Jiang vaguely sensed Yu Jian was plotting something, perhaps related to her own plans.
The other party had been scheming for twenty years. Wen Jiang couldn’t grasp all aspects in a short time; she could only take it one step at a time.
Zero Egg also realized their attitudes weren’t right. Yu Jian seemed to harbor ill will towards Wen Jiang, and it had its own concerns: "What if she makes a move against you?"
My little system could get into trouble too! Whoa!
The things Zero Egg possessed were enough for an ordinary person to change their fate, but against such a Major System, an ordinary person wouldn’t stand a chance.
Wen Jiang said, "She won’t. Her system won’t allow it. My data is abnormal, just as you scanned. If her system detects something amiss, it will definitely advise Yu Jian not to act rashly."
If Yu Jian really made a move, Wen Jiang would ensure neither of them had a good outcome, even if it meant mutual destruction.
I was infamously untouchable in the cultivation world, not just because of my formidable strength, but also because of my notorious temper, wasn’t I? These days, mere strength without a temper can’t cow others; they know you won’t act. But if you do act, everyone will steer clear of you. Moreover, her system has been here for twenty years with no progress on its mission. Is it really not anxious? Yu Jian’s reappearance meant the other party had a plan. It would be best if no unexpected complications arose before that plan succeeded.
Facing such a Major System, Zero Egg was still afraid, shivering with a mix of fear and excitement. "I’m just a minor System; I never imagined I would witness such a grand spectacle! I’ll have something to boast about when I get back."
It was rather optimistic.
As the competition in Card City progressed, Wen Jiang finally finished compiling the data on the Divine Beasts and handed it all to Yan Moling.
The review of the five Spirit Card Masters was also finally approved, and the long-awaited third Chapter of the blockbuster comic finally updated again.
The Yunxia Federation had been busy with various issues lately, primarily concerning Mount Flower. However, the comic’s release completely captivated global attention.
The content of this Chapter was simply explosive.
The world created by Nvwa, the Dragon Clan, the Phoenix Clan, the Four Great Divine Beasts, and even Divine Beasts verified by Card Spirits like Bai Ze and Bi Fang, all made an appearance in the comic.
Could this truly be the Yunxia Federation’s mythical civilization? Is there hope for its mythical civilization?
This Chapter’s content also shook the Nobility. Although they had received prior warnings from the relevant Spirit Card Masters, they hadn’t anticipated material this explosive.
If it were fake, that would be one thing. But what if it’s real? Once an SSR Card is created from this, it will become public property of the Empire, not the Nobility! Even cards created by their own people would still belong to the Empire!
This development stirred a tempest within the Nobility. They scrambled to verify the civilization’s authenticity, scrutinizing every word as if under a magnifying glass.
Foreign nations also sensed something was amiss.
If these civilizations truly existed, they represented a series of entities even more formidable than their own card decks. Just by analogy, there were dozens of Divine Beasts comparable to Bai Ze and Bi Fang, and even different types of god-humans had appeared.
If, just if, these were actually created—how terrifying would the Yunxia Federation become?
However, Wen Jiang’s cunning lay in the fact that she only roughly sketched the different names of these god-humans, giving them titles and appearances, but not detailing their functions. Furthermore, she only provided detailed Divine Beast information to the Empire.
She was stalling for time to upgrade herself and to clear the path for the Empire.
Allowing the public to learn about the mythical civilization didn’t mean letting the Nobility gain any advantages.
Of course, because everyone initially thought the Yunxia Federation was madly fabricating a civilization, the sheer volume of information released in this comic Chapter was substantial. While it couldn’t yet fully prove its authenticity, it was enough to make many people restless.
The Spirit Card Master from Country Beiwu, who had previously threatened Wen Jiang, once again jumped out to mock the Yunxia Federation.
"It seems the Yunxia Federation is truly desperate, fabricating such a patently false mythical civilization. If Divine Beasts like Bai Ze and Bi Fang exist, why has there been no trace of them in records for so many years? Did they just vanish completely? Yunxia Federation, stop deluding yourselves! You’re only making yourselves a global laughingstock."
