Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1895 - 1058: Wolf Lord, This Meat Is Still Bloody! (2)

Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
As Su Lin advanced toward the Western Star Core, the Silver Celestial Dragon Clan boldly denounced the Undead Holy Sect as treacherous villains, vowing to defend the core and mobilizing troops against its supporters, the Heavenly Spirit Holy Court and Aurora Civilization. The Ice Dragon Clan swiftly aligned with them, while the Dark Erosion Holy Hall escalated tensions by beheading a key ally of the sect and displaying the head as a warning. Public opinion turned fiercely against the Undead Holy Sect amid widespread propaganda, with the Red Sun Empire publicly backing "Unspeakable" and deploying forces to deter northern reinforcements, joined by clans like the Nine Infant Ghost Car, Chaos Remnant, Golden Fire Fierce Sun, and Jinhuang System in denunciations and military posturing.

Yet shortly thereafter, the Demon Emperor issued a resounding public proclamation, "Long before I claimed the throne, the tempests of those days had faded into memory, and it was then that I sought aid from the Heavenly Destiny Clan. Should Unspeakable have uncovered any hidden truths, let him defy the Heavenly Destiny Clan's sacred codes if he so chooses, as I have fulfilled every obligation owed. Thus, beyond Mo Peng, I harbor no debts to any other power, and I neither yield to intimidations nor cower before them!"

The former Son of the Demon Emperor had fully ripened into maturity.

A commanding presence of sovereign might surged forth!

As "Unspeakable" attempted to extort him using proofs from his ascension to power, he swiftly discerned potential underhanded ties between the Heavenly Destiny Clan and "Unspeakable".

If not, the matter of his plea for the Heavenly Destiny Clan's support would have stayed utterly sealed.

Moreover, piercing through the dual veils of confidentiality from the Heavenly Destiny Clan and the Demon System, let alone delving into the intricacies of the succession turmoil, would prove nearly unattainable.

It could only make sense if links existed between the Heavenly Destiny Clan and "Unspeakable"!

Hence, he boldly exposed this linkage, keen to test whether "Unspeakable" would risk sullying his standing and pull the Heavenly Destiny Clan into the abyss alongside him?

As expected, once the fresh Demon Emperor voiced this bold statement to all, "Unspeakable"'s scheme to sway the Demon System crumbled apart.

Nevertheless, thanks to the Nebula Level reward broadcast by "Unspeakable" and the successive endorsements from mighty Nebula Great Clans,

despite the Demon System's continued loyalty to the Undead Holy Sect, their position teetered on the brink of collapse.

Furthermore, amid the torrent of spoken condemnations and rebukes from more than half the Star Nebula Force, plus the edicts branding the Undead Holy Sect as betrayers, the label of disloyal underling clung inescapably to them.

Whenever the bulk of races and powers seek to brand you as a villain on the shame's scaffold, even purity won't save you from the fall!

This is the force known as momentum!

Against such momentum, notions of fairness? Distinctions of truth and falsehood? Debates of correctness all dissolve into vapor!

Should momentum decree your guilt, guilty you stand!

Innocence twists into culpability!

...

Beneath this unstoppable momentum, entire decades slipped by in the blink of an eye.

Over these years, Su Lin also caught word from the Investment Mark that it unexpectedly urged the Wolf Pack Civilization to pledge allegiance to "Unspeakable"!

The promised assets and reparations soared straight to twenty trillion Blood Stones.

Su Lin never pursued fleeting glory, nor did the Wolf Pack Civilization cling to lofty ideals. For merely one allegiance, such lavish gains awaited, so they openly declared their support for "Unspeakable"!

They mirrored others by denouncing the Undead Holy Sect as well.

Yet, bound by their vow to the Undead Holy Sect to deploy a trillion-strong force for a single clash on their behalf, their criticism remained somewhat restrained.

They refrained from proclaiming total severance and waging all-out war!

Throughout this period,

Su Lin ventured to the Western Main Star Core Fragment, where he discovered the resources, Dao Rhythm, and Fortune pulsing with immense potency, befitting the grandeur of the Blazing Star Core.

His rivals, the Heavenly Abyss Civilization and the Predator Federation, controlled merely a tiny fraction of this Star Core.

Combined, their hold amounted to roughly five percent.

This revealed the staggering Fortune embedded within the genuine Main Star Core Fragment.

Once at the Western Star Core, Su Lin detected the elite infiltrator he had embedded in the Undead Army Group, confirming its presence right there.

Evidently, the adversaries set by "Unspeakable" were custom-forged for the challenge.

Having arrived at the Star Core, Su Lin rapidly assumed the guise of a representative for "Unspeakable," dispatching a cadre of adherents to persuade those two Nebula Great Clans.

After all, with more than half the potent Nebula Great Clans backing "Unspeakable", alongside the ruthless campaigns by Dark Erosion Holy Hall, Silver Celestial Dragon, Nine Infant Ghost Car, and the Fire Clan Branch launching direct assaults, it left these two Nebula Great Clans gripped by profound dread.

Thus, with Su Lin posing as an envoy of "Unspeakable",

in an instant, sans any clashes, skirmishes, or even the lone elimination of their elites, he halted these two Nebula Great Clans in their tracks.

Provided they refrained from bolstering the Undead Holy Sect, a bounty of hundred billion resources awaited them each century.

In this arrangement, Su Lin held an utterly unassailable position!

Still, his ambitions stretched far beyond mere compliance.

To Su Lin, this vital mission represented chiefly a chance to harvest vast profits riding the wave of circumstance.

Apart from the core mission issued by "Unspeakable", Su Lin had finally secured exhaustive and precise intel on the Nebula Great Clans for the very first time.

Added to that, with his agent already entrenched at Marquis rank among the Undead Holy Sect's upper echelons, failing to exploit this would squander a divine boon?

Right then, Su Lin subtly invoked his Soul Connection Talent, forging covert bonds with the spies he had sown millennia prior, while mulling over tactics against these two Nebula Great Clans in his thoughts.

This thorough intel highlighted that the primary frailties of the Heavenly Abyss Civilization and Predator Federation lay in their resource sustainability cycles and daily sustenance frameworks.

In particular, the Predator Federation had perpetually sustained itself through external raids.

Within its borders, it imposed harsh extractions, leading to the utter breakdown of the resource sustainability cycle, plunging the whole apparatus into dire straits where survival hung by a thread.

Every Exotic Beast species scrapped fiercely just for scraps of sustenance.

Thus, for these two entities, the counsel from "Unspeakable"'s network advocated stoking inner strife and tempting lures.
