Starforce Warriors

“I will never forgive you.” Tears streamed down Chu Xiang’s face as she stared at the live footage of the exploding shuttlecraft.

For so many years, her relationship with her second brother had been close. They had always looked after each other and trusted each other deeply. In her eyes, her second brother had always been gentle, refined, warm and kind. He had been meticulous in his actions and far-sighted in strategy. He was a man of true wisdom. She never imagined that he would resort to such despicable means.

First, he had tricked Li Xiaofei into leaving. Then, he had a Starshatter Oblivion Bomb secretly planted aboard the shuttlecraft. A Starshatter Oblivion Bomb was the strongest strategic weapon developed by the Chu Family.

Though this kind of bomb was difficult to deploy effectively against top-tier cultivators when they were prepared, it was still a terrifying fusion of advanced technology and formation power. If used properly and launched as a surprise attack, the explosion could instantly obliterate even Five Dragons Realm experts caught within a kilometer. Even Six Gods Realm cultivators would be gravely wounded.

Chu Heng could only offer a bitter smile as he tried to explain, “Xiang’er, don’t let emotions cloud your judgment. While our Chu Family may not fear the Yue Family, it’s not just them who are coming, it’s the entire Merchant Alliance. It represents the collective will of all the major clans in the Xiao Kuang Star Region. I don’t know how the Yue Family managed to unite them, but this is a force no single family, not even ours, can withstand. This is a shift in the great tide. We can’t gamble the foundation of our family for your one savior.”

“Second Brother, you’re short-sighted. You have no idea...” Chu Xiang trembled with anger.

Her second brother had no idea what Li Xiaofei truly represented. He was a legend who had survived the chaos of Heaven unscathed. Even though she didn’t know exactly what role Li Xiaofei had played in the final battle at the Thirty-Third Heaven, she was certain he had gained immensely from Heaven.

She even believed that Li Xiaofei likely had the means to travel in and out of Heaven freely, as if he held the key to the divine treasury itself. What harm was there in standing against the Merchant Alliance for someone like that?

Besides, the Merchant Alliance wasn’t a solid block of iron. The Chu Family’s years of investment and connections hadn’t been in vain. With the right strategy, dividing, drawing allies, and joining forces with the military, they could absolutely seize the initiative.

Chu Xiang had believed she’d made everything clear to her brother. But to her disbelief, even her typically wise and farsighted second brother had made such a foolish, unforgivable decision.
