Chapter 2199: Chapter 2196: Identity Exposed

Although Guli Jia’s words were a bit harsh, they were indeed the truth. No matter how united the people on Earth were, the gap in strength was laid out right in front of them; this wasn’t something that could be overcome with hot-blooded passion alone.

"Then can I ask what the two elder sisters’ identities are? Why are you helping us? I think with your strength, you must also be top experts from an alternate dimension, right?" Liu Tingyu asked.

Princess Yun Xuan and Guli Jia exchanged a look, then Princess Yun Xuan gave a dry cough. "You’ll understand this question in the future. You just need to remember that we bear you no malice, only goodwill!"

"Is it because of Ling Feng?" At this moment, Catherine suddenly asked.

The two women remained outwardly calm, but a flash of surprise flickered in their eyes. How did this woman know?

"Who is Ling Feng? We’ve never heard that name!" Guli Jia said quickly. They had agreed beforehand that even if they showed up, they absolutely could not appear in the capacity of Ling Feng’s wives.

Catherine frowned slightly. "If it’s not because of Ling Feng, then is it because of the Bright Saintess Saint Di Anfu?"

"That’s right, we’re friends of Saint Di Anfu!" Princess Yun Xuan secretly let out a breath of relief. "We don’t know Ling Feng, and she’s never mentioned Ling Feng to us!"

"What?" All the women were stunned, their faces filled with surprise and unease.

Ling Feng had left together with Saint Di Anfu, yet now they had ended up separated in the alternate dimension, and these two seemed to have no information about Ling Feng. Could it be that Ling Feng...

At that thought, the women’s faces turned even paler.

Princess Yun Xuan cursed inwardly that this was bad. Seeing the look on their faces, she naturally understood what they were thinking.

"The Ling Feng you mentioned should also be one of Saint Di Anfu’s companions, right?" Princess Yun Xuan said quickly. "You don’t need to worry about him. Saint Di Anfu said he’s very safe right now."

Hearing this, the women’s expressions finally eased a little.

"This isn’t the time to be talking about that!" Guli Jia’s eyes rolled, and she said in a deep voice, "Even though we repelled the Beast Demon Race, they were just the vanguard from those Higher Dimensions. Right now Earth is a juicy piece of meat; only with a powerful defensive force can we truly safeguard Earth. Otherwise, all that awaits Earth is annihilation!"

"Then what should we do now?" Anxiety flashed in Bai Feifei’s eyes.

"Maintain order and calm the people. Leave the rest to us!" Princess Yun Xuan cut in.

The women were stunned. "You mean there’s nothing we need to do?"

"There’s no need. The gap between your strength and theirs is still quite large. You can’t play much of a role in battle; if you can ensure Earth’s social stability and order, that’s already very good." Princess Yun Xuan said lightly. "Different fields have different experts. You should be exerting your strength in the domains you’re good at."

"Right, Vital Energy on Earth is surging, and in the future it will enter The Great Cultivation Era. So getting the people to gradually accept this fact is also a long and arduous task!" Princess Yun Xuan continued, "This is no easier than battle, understand?"

The women nodded. "If you need us, just tell us directly."

"Of course. We’re all one family, after all..." Before Guli Jia could finish her words, Princess Yun Xuan cut her off. "Alright, that’s it for now. We need to arrange the next phase of our plan. You go out first and talk with the leaders of the other forces."

Only after all the women left did Princess Yun Xuan and Guli Jia finally breathe a sigh of relief. They had almost given themselves away.

"What do we do now?" Guli Jia asked. "Since we’ve already stepped forward, we definitely have to protect Earth for Ling Feng. Otherwise, when he comes back, he definitely won’t let us off!"

Princess Yun Xuan had a bit of a headache. "How about I go back and have a Demon King’s Army transferred here?"

"I think it’s more likely you’ll just get locked up by the Demon King." Guli Jia shrugged. "Why don’t you give it a try?"

"Hmph, you think I don’t know what you’re scheming? You’d love nothing more than to have my royal father lock me up, wouldn’t you?" Princess Yun Xuan’s expression turned unfriendly.

"You’re overthinking it. There are so many official wives out there." Guli Jia chuckled. "Instead of competing with you for favor, I’d be better off buttering up those official wives outside! Believe it or not, Ling Feng definitely cares about them more than he does us!"

The corner of Princess Yun Xuan’s mouth twitched. She didn’t want to admit it, but she knew full well in her heart that the women on Earth were the ones Ling Feng was truly most attached to.

"Then I’ll send a message to my royal father." Princess Yun Xuan sighed. "Have him dispatch some experts here first. The two of us may have Azure Sky Realm-level strength, but we don’t have Azure Sky Realm combat power. If enemies at the Azure Sky Realm really show up, the two of us might not even be enough to put on the table!"

They were quite self-aware when it came to their own strength.

But when Liu Tingyu and the others walked out, they exchanged glances, and from each other’s eyes they instantly understood what everyone was thinking.

"Friends of Saint Di Anfu, my ass. This is clearly Ling Feng leaving romantic debts behind out there. Otherwise, would top experts like them show up on Earth? If they were really friends of the Bright Saintess, the first thing they’d do is protect the Pope and talk to the Pope, right? Why would they come straight to us? And we’re all Ling Feng’s women. Isn’t this ’there’s no three hundred taels of silver buried here’ written all over it?"

Ling Feng’s women were all exquisitely sharp-minded. They’d long since sensed something was off. These two girls were most likely Ling Feng’s Intimate Female Friends in the Otherworld. That also explained why they’d insisted on having Liu Tingyu call them elder sisters.

Still, since the two girls bore no malice and were deliberately covering things up, Liu Tingyu and the others didn’t expose them; they just found it funny. They were even looking forward to what things would be like when Ling Feng came back!

But just as the two had said, Earth was far too fragile. They couldn’t rely solely on the two of them to protect the planet.

"Let’s first gather the leaders of all factions and tell everyone about this." Bai Feifei said solemnly. "Some things can’t be hidden anyway. And... if Earth really is going to enter The Great Cultivation Era, making sure the people get through this phase smoothly is also our responsibility."

The women nodded.

An hour later, when Bai Feifei relayed to everyone the intel she’d gotten from Princess Yun Xuan, the crowd fell silent. They had thought that after defeating the Beast Demon Race, Earth would be completely out of danger, but they hadn’t expected there to be even more severe challenges behind.

"The Great Cultivation Era? I think ’Great Era of Cataclysm’ is more fitting." The Dark Councilor shook his head and said, "Frogs at the bottom of a well—we really were frogs at the bottom of a well before. Thinking back on some of our previous thoughts and actions, they were laughable to the extreme!"
