Chapter 1048: Preparing for Another War

The young woman in a black dress was none other than a clone of the king of chaos.

"You couldn't have forgotten something, could you?" Li Zongming asked.

Zhang Lie replied, "I don't think the king of chaos could have left anything behind in the Zongming world..."

Li Zongming's face was alert, as though he were facing a deadly enemy. He had gained quite a few treasures during the meeting just now.

The young woman smiled. "Relax, I'm not here to snatch your treasures. I promised them to you, and I intend to keep my promises—and it's not as though I have a shortage of superior world's energy myself."

Li Zongming asked again, "Your Majesty, could you clarify why you've come?"

The young woman shrugged. "What's wrong about my being here? There aren't any combatants with the strength of a superior king around, only a beast at that level.

As long as I don't make a big fuss and sneak in, it's easy for me to go undetected."

Zhang Lie's face sank. Indeed, Gold Comet wouldn't be enough protection against any enemies. If the young woman in black had intended to do anything bad—to attack Li Qianlin, for instance—Gold Comet wouldn't have noticed.

The young woman clearly noticed what Zhang Lie was thinking. "Don't worry. The beast isn't weak—I'm just much stronger. I wasn't the one who called myself the strongest king, it was the rest of them who did."

Indeed, it couldn't be helped.

"None of the other superior kings could easily sneak in, and neither would they be able to accomplish anything much in the meantime. Even I have to be cautious not to get too close to that beast. To be honest, even despite my experience, I've never seen a beast with the strength of a superior king. That beast's intuition is particularly strong, and I was almost spotted myself. Are you selling it?"

Despite being a clone of the king of chaos, it felt like each clone was an independent entity, with its own personality and behavior.

"I'm afraid not."

"What a pity," the young woman in black sighed.

Li Zongming's brows furrowed deeper. "King of chaos, please don't avoid my questions. Why have you come? It's surely not to consume my tea, is it?"

The young woman pointed at her head. "I don't mean to obfuscate my intent. It's just that there's an ongoing meeting I'm part of whose outcome could affect this discussion."

Zhang Lie was flabbergasted. "A meeting among the clones?"

The young woman in black turned to him. "Why would you think we clones need to have meetings?"

Zhang Lie spread his arms. "If not among yourselves, then whom is it with?"

The young woman rolled her eyes. "I'm speaking of the superior kings' meeting."

Li Zongming frowned. "Are you joking?"

Zhang Lie replied, "We just came back from the meeting."

The young woman shrugged. "The meeting kept going without you."

Li Zongming and Zhang Lie weren't surprised; they seemed to have guessed that it would happen.

"So we've been ostracized?"

The young woman clarified, "In fact, the meeting has much to do with the two of you."

Li Zongming chuckled coldly. "It looks like you don't come bearing good intentions, then."

The young woman raised her hands. "Please, I'm not part of 'you'. I intend to remain neutral, or I wouldn't have shown up here."

Li Zongming frowned. "Do you have something to tell us, king of chaos?"

The young woman nodded. "I came here to inform you of the proceedings of the meeting so you aren't caught unawares. The solar king, the ice queen, the king of black fog, and the king of evil intend on invading your world."

"An invasion!"

"That's right. This invasion will target not just the Zongming world, but also the other two newly evolved superior worlds under your jurisdiction."

Li Zongming and Zhang Lie were expressionless.

The young woman frowned. "You don't believe me?"

Li Zongming shook his head. "Of course I believe you, Your Majesty. Zhang Lie and I have been prepared for this since the beginning, and we're not surprised that they'll make a move. I'm simply curious as to your presence here—why help us?"

The young woman shrugged. "I don't like what they're doing."

"Thank you for the warning, king of chaos."

Zhang Lie asked curiously, "Who was so unlucky as to rouse your ire, Your Majesty?"

"The meddler."

"Who...?"

"You've seen him before."

The young woman smiled mysteriously.

Zhang Lie sighed. "Your Majesty, perhaps I'm slow, but I can't guess who you're talking about."

"The mastermind. You'll see soon enough."

Zhang Lie pursed his lips. Would it kill the king of chaos to be less mysterious?

"Zhang Lie, I'm very interested in you. Don't die—come over to the world of primordial chaos at any time. I'll welcome you."

The young woman smiled and turned around. If not for the fact that Zhang Lie had seen this clone's true form, he really might have thought of her as a young woman.

Zhang Lie rejected the offer. "Thank you, Your Majesty, but I'm doing well enough."

"I knew you'd say that. Well, I'll be off now. See you." The young woman waved a hand and left. Neither Zhang Lie nor Li Zongming stopped—or rather, dared to stop—the king of chaos' clone. Even the king of chaos' clones were stronger than ordinary superior kings.

Li Zongming turned to Zhang Lie. "What do you think of the situation?"

Zhang Lie replied, "We obtained quite a lot of treasures recently, and it's only natural that the other superior kings would be envious of our spoils. Since they're about to invade us, we have to prepare ourselves."

"How?" Li Zongming asked.

Zhang Lie thought about the situation. "We need to summon the two other new superior kings and have a discussion among us all."

Li Zongming agreed. "Very well. I'll leave this to you, then—you have deep connections to both worlds.

I intend to send you to both worlds as the envoy of the Zongming world to invite their kings over here to discuss how to resolve the situation."

Zhang Lie asked, "And what about you?"

Li Zongming sighed. "I'll be preparing to infuse the seven superior worlds' worth of energy into the Zongming world."

Zhang Lie frowned. "Are you just throwing me all the work, then?"

Li Zongming asked, "Is that a problem? You know these worlds far better than I do, and you certainly don't want to see them destroyed."

Zhang Lie sighed. "They really aren't giving us any time to relax, are they?"

Zhang Lie felt like he hadn't had a chance to rest in ages.

Li Zongming patted him. "The strong always have plenty of work on their plate."

Zhang Lie added, "Since you're preparing for war, you might as well help me with one thing."

"What thing?" Li Zongming asked.
