Just as Ruoning and Huaye were discussing in the conference room how to deal with the combined fleet of Hexi and Glenn, two figures silently arrived in Huaye's fleet.

At the same time, they contacted Ruoning and Huaye in a special way.

"Hua Yewang, Ms. Ruoning, it's been a long time. May we have a private chat?"

Upon hearing the voice that suddenly rang in their minds, Ruoning and Huaye abruptly stopped what they were doing, but then resumed their normal movements.

Without realizing it, the two exchanged a glance and immediately understood each other's thoughts.

After receiving a nod of approval from Hua Ye, Ruoning slowly stood up and addressed her subordinates:

"You all go down first! Wang and I have something important to discuss."

"Yes!"

The group of scumbags didn't insist and all left one after another.

"Click!"

As the conference room door closed, two figures appeared out of thin air in front of Ruoning and Huaye.

Its entrance was as mysterious and unpredictable as ever, making it impossible to detect even a trace of energy fluctuation.

Upon appearing, Zero's tall figure gave a slight bow and said:

"Long time no see, you two."

Before Ruoning could speak, Hua Ye, who had been leaning back on the sofa, said sarcastically:

"What? What are you trying to fool me about this time? Last time you tricked Ruoning into ambushing that little girl, Angel Yan, and Ruoning almost didn't make it back."

Could it be that they're trying to trick me into assassinating He Xi or that damned guy again?

Zero showed no anger at Hua Ye's sarcasm; he remained calm and said:

"Your Majesty, I am deeply sorry for what happened to Ms. Ruoning, but we will not do such a thing as deception, nor would we stoop to it."

Besides, we already did what we were supposed to do last time. If Ms. Ruoning didn't seize the opportunity, there was nothing we could do. We also didn't expect Ms. Ruoning to be held back by her own apprentice; this surprised us quite a bit.

Although the words were full of sincerity, Hua Ye and Ruoning were not fools and could detect a hint of sarcasm in them.

Although Ruoning didn't say anything at this moment, her expression was also unpleasant.

Anyone who says they are inferior to others will not receive a pleasant look, let alone their own apprentice!

Although it is said that the new wave pushes the old wave forward, and the old wave dies on the beach, she does not want to be that old wave!

"Hey! You mean we're not as skilled? Then why did you come to us? Just to mock us?"

Hua Ye didn't tolerate Zero and his group; he spoke his mind and didn't take Zero, the investor, seriously at all.

At this moment, Long, who had been silent until now, spoke up, saying without any hesitation:

“Your strength is indeed weak. If it weren’t for us, would you be standing here? Don’t take our kindness for granted, or we will look down on you, Hua Ye…King!”

This time, not only did Ruoning's expression change, but even Hua Ye lost face. He looked at Long, who had spoken, with a gloomy expression, and then looked at Ling and said:

"Hmm? Who's this? Is she your companion? She seems to look down on us a bit?"

His tone was extremely hostile, and his lifeless eyes were fixed on Zero. Hua Ye was certain that if Zero didn't give them an explanation, he would immediately take action to deal with them.

Trust him, he has the ability. He can take this opportunity to break free from the control of the forces behind Zero. The forces behind this guy definitely have bad intentions.

Taking the benefits without doing the work—that's Hua Ye's philosophy of life.

Sensing the subtle threat from Hua Ye and Ruoning, Ling remained calm and did not blame Long.

In fact, Long's meaning was also his meaning, but he just wasn't as direct.

After a long while, just as Hua Ye was about to make his move, Zero's indifferent voice rang out.

"An explanation? What explanation? If you want us to apologize, there's no need for that, because it's impossible. Given your current situation, without our assistance, there's only one fate for you: death!"

At this moment, Zero no longer maintained a respectful attitude towards Hua Ye and Ruoning. Since they wanted to make trouble, let them make trouble. They had no way out now.

"Is that so? Then you can all die!"

Upon hearing this, Hua Ye's face darkened further, and his energy surged as he prepared to attack.

But just then, Ruoning grabbed Hua Ye's shoulder and whispered:

"Don't be impulsive, we won't get away with it if we fight here."

Having said that, Suo Ruoning ignored Hua Ye's indignant expression, took a step forward, stood in front of Hua Ye, stared at Ling and Long, and said coldly:

"Since you've put it that way, why not be frank and say it? It'll be better for everyone."

At this moment, Zero's attitude suddenly reversed, changing from indifference and contempt to respect, leaving everyone present somewhat bewildered.

Zero chuckled and said:

"As expected, Ms. Ruoning is very reasonable. If King Huaye had half of your rationality, I think our cooperation would be very pleasant."

Although the tone was full of respect, anyone with a discerning eye could hear the divisive intent in those words. It seems that Zero is not as easy to talk to as one might imagine.

Just by looking at Hua Ye's gloomy face, you can tell how angry he is.

Ruoning didn't react at all, remaining as indifferent as ever, until her voice rang out after a moment.

"Stop trying to sow discord. Let's get down to business. Why do you think we'd face death without your help?"

Zero stopped Long from speaking, and then explained calmly:

"According to our accurate intelligence, the fleet formed by the angel and that guy is heading in your direction. I don't need to say more about their purpose, do I?"

Although Ruoning also knew this information, she did not interrupt Ling's explanation. Instead, she said coldly:

"go on!"

Zero didn't keep anyone in suspense and went straight to the point.

"You are all aware of the angel's strength, so I won't go into detail. But believe me, that guy didn't come alone; the fleet he commands is equally formidable. Based on our calculations, with your current strength, you'd be struggling even just to face him and his fleet, let alone with the angel joining the fray!"

That's why I said you're in a very dangerous situation, and without our help, your only fate is destruction.

Upon seeing Hua Ye's defiant gaze, Zero added:

"Even if Hua Ye Wang controls the black hole, it will only cause the opponent to lose a little more power."

At this moment, Ruoning fell into deep thought. She could still believe Zero's words to some extent. Even though he did not reveal the specific strength of Glenn's side, Ruoning believed that the results they had obtained alone had already explained a lot of things.

Although Hua Ye was still unconvinced, he ultimately said nothing. He reasoned that Ruoning was intelligent enough to understand things better than he did.

Finally, Ruoning snapped out of her reverie, looked up at Ling, and said with a serious expression:

"So...you're planning to take action yourselves?"

For a moment, even Hua Ye turned his attention to Zero, wanting to hear Zero's answer.
