Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1584: A Warning to All Major Regions

After listening to Zhang Yi's words, Li Changgong reached this conclusion.

"It seems that when you went to Mist Valley on Star Island back then, you did something you shouldn't have. You offended the underground civilization there."

"They've already got their eyes on you."

Li Changgong curled the corner of his mouth, his expression somewhat mocking.

"At the very least, this proves that our regions have nothing to do with it. Hey, hey, hey, calling everyone over here and putting on this accusatory show is really quite annoying."

Zhang Yi raised his head and looked at Li Changgong, "You talk way too much! That's just your speculation, there's no way to verify it."

"Besides, you seem to have forgotten one very important point."

Zhang Yi said in a low, measured tone, "That Black Chariot-tier Transcendent came to my Tianshui City, and I could kill it!"

Li Changgong's gaze sharpened. Zhang Yi was issuing a naked warning to him.

Back then, Li Changgong still possessed strength comparable to Zhang Yi's, but now, his ability index was only 18,000 points, while Zhang Yi had reached the height of 25,000 points! The two were no longer on the same level.

Li Changgong's sword-like brows shot up: "That's just a geographical advantage! If you dare set foot in my Northwest Major Region, I guarantee you'll suffer a world of misery!"

Meng Yuanjun quickly stepped forward to play the peacemaker.

"Alright, alright, both of you say no more. We're facing an external crisis right now. We should be uniting against the enemy, not creating internal conflict!"

Li Changgong let out a cold snort, and Zhang Yi couldn't be bothered to acknowledge him either.

Ever since the battle at Shengjing, this proud and arrogant fellow had been constantly looking for a chance to reclaim his dignity.

He hadn't yet touched Zhang Yi's reverse scale, so Zhang Yi didn't want to deal with him.

But the day he truly provoked Zhang Yi's wrath... hah, he would learn just how terrifying the consequences could be.

Meng Yuanjun said to everyone, "What Chaos mentioned might very well be the reason behind that Black Chariot-tier Transcendent's appearance. We absolutely cannot afford to be negligent. We must strengthen our defenses."

He looked at Zhang Yi, "Chaos, if there's anything you need help with from everyone, just say the word. We're all on the same side. We'll certainly do our utmost to assist!"

Zhang Yi sneered inwardly.

He could see through pleasantries easily enough. At this moment, everyone had essentially concluded that the attack was entirely Zhang Yi's own fault for offending whatever existed beneath Mist Valley on Star Island, and had nothing to do with the other major regions of the Huaxu Nation.

So this matter would have to be resolved by Zhang Yi himself.

Unless it threatened their own regions, they wouldn't take the initiative to act.

Of course, if Zhang Yi truly ran into trouble and was willing to lower his head to ask for help, and promised certain benefits in return, they would come to assist out of shared interests.

The six major regions at this moment were like brothers who had just divided up the family inheritance.

There would be contradictions and struggles among themselves, but when faced with an external invasion, they understood the principle that "when the lips are gone, the teeth feel the cold." They wouldn't just stand by and do nothing.

"I understand!"

Zhang Yi said calmly, "The reason I informed you all of this matter this time wasn't to suspect any of you. It was simply to give you a heads-up, to be careful of encountering a similar situation on your end."

"However," Zhang Yi paused, his gaze sweeping coldly across everyone, "You'd all best not think that this matter concerns only me, Zhang Yi, personally. It would be wise to strengthen your defenses!"

Meng Yuanjun nodded, "Of course!"

Li Changgong crossed his arms, standing tall and proud in his marshal's uniform, and said indifferently, "The Northwest Major Region, under my leadership, has long been forged into an impenetrable fortress. Anyone who dares to offend it will surely never return!"

"Whatever you say."

Zhang Yi couldn't even be bothered to look at him again.

"Alright, if there are no other questions, let's conclude this meeting."

Zhang Yi said.

The others nodded one after another.

"If any situation arises in the future, we'll discuss it then."

"Then let's call it here for today!"

The representatives of each major region logged off one by one, until finally only Zhu Zheng remained in the meeting.

Throughout the entire meeting, he hadn't said a single word. Zhang Yi had invited him over purely out of courtesy.

But when it came to true decision-making, he had no authority. It was ultimately Zhang Yi who had the final say.

Now that everyone else had left, he finally spoke up, "Zhang Yi, if there's anything Tianshui City needs help with right now, just tell me directly! Blizzard City will do everything in its power to support you!"

Zhang Yi looked at Zhu Zheng's sincere and worried expression, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness. But you don't need to worry about my side. Well..."

He pondered for a moment, then said to Zhu Zheng, "For the time being, strengthen Blizzard City's defenses! Although they're most likely coming for me, you should still avoid being caught in the crossfire."

Zhu Zheng said, "Zhang Yi, you don't need to say such distant words. If the Jiangnan Region didn't have you, it would be like a house losing its main pillar. So everything will prioritize you!"

Zhang Yi nodded and said with a smile, "Then thank you very much! If I need anything, I'll get in touch with you."

Only then did Zhu Zheng log off.

After everyone had logged off, Yang Xinxin, who had been behind Zhang Yi, walked over to his side and sat down gently.

"It seems they really have nothing to do with it."

Yang Xinxin turned her head to stare at Zhang Yi, "Could it really be the beings from Mist Valley on Star Island?"

Zhang Yi countered, "If not them, then who else could it be?"

Yang Xinxin said, "The likelihood of it being a human nation is low."

The always resourceful Yang Xinxin now fell into silence as well.

Faced with an unknown and powerful underground civilization, with a potentially insurmountable gap in strength, she found it hard to imagine how they should respond.

At this moment, she almost wished this were the work of some superpower faction among humanity instead.

Zhang Yi rubbed his brow, then flashed a brilliant smile at Yang Xinxin.

"There's no need to worry so much. I've fought against the Gatekeeper of the Underworld before. Thinking back now, his strength was truly terrifying, far more than 30,000. But I'm not the same Zhang Yi I was back then either."

"And if we add the full resources of Tianshui City, we just might be able to withstand the crisis that's coming!"

"If worst comes to worst..."

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Zhang Yi's eyes, "We still have the Love of Death!"

Yang Xinxin reminded Zhang Yi, "Up until now, the launch authorization for the Love of Death has remained in Zhu Zheng's hands."

She leaned gently close to Zhang Yi's ear, exhaling a sweet, warm breath as she whispered like a little demon.

"Should we take it back?"

Zhang Yi smiled faintly, "No need."

"If I really did that, the other major regions wouldn't sit idly by. After all, the Love of Death is extremely dangerous, and I'm just a lone wolf. From what happened with Qin Qigong before, you can see that many people have doubts about me."

"Besides, that thing might not even be as useful as Keron's Heaven-tier weaponry here in Tianshui City!"
