Chapter 1653: Foresight

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
All the Deity Realm warriors looked at Yun Feidian expressionlessly.

Yun Feidian had been so confident earlier, but he was extremely embarrassed now.

He gritted his teeth and pondered for a moment. Then, he suddenly realized something and punched his fist hard. “Lu Siya foresaw my prediction. She knows that we can’t take it anymore. Once she leads the crowd into Universe Corporation’s headquarters, we’ll take the most resolute action against her.

“That’s why she’s deliberately pretending to be in control of the situation. She’s trying to paralyze the public and shake our resolve!

“Everybody, from this, we can see that Lu Siya is more cunning than we thought. If we don’t capture her right now and turn her into a monster, it’s likely that she’ll become our most terrifying enemy in the blink of an eye.

“We all understand the logic.”

Lei Tianming had just agreed with Yun Feidian’s opinion, and he was ready to send Soaring Dragon Construction’s elite soldiers to carry out the mission of capturing Lu Siya together with Thundercloud Technology’s corporate armed forces.

However, his attitude changed a-hundred-and-eighty degrees. “The problem is, Lu Siya’s disguise is too perfect. She’s not giving us an excuse to capture her.

“If she truly led people to attack Universe Corporation’s headquarters and caused the casualties of innocent people as you said, then we would be doing it for a good reason. We would be wiping out the monster remnants for Dragon City. Even if the crossfire caused collateral damage, we could still explain it to the public later.

“But now, Lu Siya is obviously standing up to calm the situation. So many pairs of eyes have seen her putting moderate the situation rationally, and so many pairs of ears have heard the oath she made. How can we arrest her in broad daylight in front of so many people?

“Besides, the riot hasn’t escalated yet. The crowd is still maintaining basic order. Are you sure that we can take Lu Siya away from so many citizens of Dragon City by force?

“She doesn’t even need to resist. As long as she puts on an extremely weak appearance, she’ll successfully provoke the fury of millions of people.

“By then, thousands of captured photos taken from different angles and thousands of videos with sound and light will be flying everywhere on social media, telling everyone how pure, innocent, and pitiful Lu Siya is, and how cruel, unreasonable, and brutal we are. As a result, the nine mega corporations will end up with nothing!

“Let’s take a step back and say that even if we can successfully take Lu Siya away and produce evidence of her being a monster, do you think that anyone would believe the evidence that we produced under such circumstances?

“To put it bluntly, even if Lu Siya is really a monster, no one will believe our accusations and evidence under such circumstances. Our arrest will instead endorse her innocence and even raise her prestige.

“Feidian, think about it yourself. Are you sure about what happened?”

Capturing Lu Siya would be great for Lei Tianming.

However, it was also a wonderful pleasure to watch Yun Feidian become flustered.

The veins on both sides of Yun Feidian’s temples were exploding, and his eyes were bloodshot as he shouted at the top of his voice, “Now is not the time to worry about the public’s influence! No matter what, we have to beat Lu Siya into revealing her monstrous form. Everyone, the opportunity is fleeting. We cannot hesitate anymore!”

“This is not just a matter of the public’s influence.”

Another neurotic powerhouse, whose eyes were as sharp as lightning and face was as thin as a knife, coldly said, “There are more Deity Realm experts in Dragon City than just the few of us here. Aside from the nine mega corporations, the Red Dragon Army, the Supernatural Tower, the Research Department, Dragon City University, and the alliance of the five universities all have Deity Realm experts.

“Those Deity Realm experts might not specialize in combat. They do not have a particularly close alliance with each other, and they do not interfere with the nine mega corporations. There are also no intense conflicts between them.

“If Lu Siya really risks our world by leading people to attack Universe Corporation’s headquarters, then we’ll arrest her in the name of protecting the sacred assets of the nine mega corporations. Those Deity Realm experts will have nothing to say.

“When we find evidence that Lu Siya is a monster, other Deity Realm experts will not openly oppose us.

“However, if we act brazenly and arrest Lu Siya, who is trying to control the situation as a rational moderator, I believe that all the Deity Realm experts, except for those under the nine mega corporations, will stand against us.

“It’s one thing to have conflicts with ordinary people, but it’s another thing to have a public break with the other Deity Realm experts. Even if their overall strength is slightly weaker than that of the nine mega corporations, we still can’t defeat and suppress them easily.

“This is a serious matter. Let’s discuss it again!”

“That’s right. We can only wait and see.”

Lei Tianming said, “Feidian, don’t be anxious. As you said, Lu Siya is an ambitious person who can stir up trouble. She can hold off her plans for a while, but she can’t go on like this for a lifetime. She’ll find another way to launch a savage attack on the nine mega corporations. When she gives herself away the next time, we’ll take immediate action and capture her. We’ll announce that she’s a monster and all of Lu Siya’s followers are ‘not citizens.’ What do you think?”

Yun Feidian gritted his teeth so hard that they made cracking sounds. Sparks were almost spurting out from the gaps between his teeth.

He looked around and found that the powerhouses who had dared to fight in the past, who had personally founded the nine major families, the nine mega corporations, and even the Survival Committee, had all become old men who were hesitant. He could not help but feel angry, but he was helpless. After holding back for a long time, he finally could not take it anymore. He smashed his fist into the heavy table made of Diamond Wood, shattering a large piece of it.

Looking at the wood shavings all over the ground, Yun Feidian sighed. His face was filled with an expression of cunning discontentment.

His expression also aroused the dissatisfaction of his many seniors. They all snorted coldly. They felt that Yun Feidian and Lu Siya were two sides of the same coin. They were both ambitious people who were unwilling to be under others for a long time. However, the former just happened to be on their side for the time being.

Speaking of which, was Lu Siya not on their side more than a year ago?

As they thought about it, the seniors made up their minds. They could not let Yun Feidian control the elite forces of the nine mega corporations so easily.

Even if they wanted to secretly capture Lu Siya, they would have to think twice and consider the long-term effects.

That was the general picture that Shen Yuanbao’s insider captured.

Meng Chao finally understood why Lu Siya switched from a radical to a moderate and rational person.
