In the dim candlelight, the tense atmosphere in the room seemed even more oppressive.

It was as if the fate of the two civilizations was decided in the next moment.

"General, you are overthinking it. The known universe is not something we can control now."

In the end, it was Karl who spoke first, his words carrying a hidden meaning.

Upon hearing Karl's words, Pan Zhen withdrew his aggressive gaze and returned to his normal demeanor.

"Tell me! What are you here for? If it's just this nonsense, then you can get lost now."

As he spoke, Pan Zhen picked up the books on the table again and began to read them by himself, clearly indicating that he wanted to see the guest out.

Karl showed no displeasure at Pan Zhen's act of seeing the guest off.

After giving Pan Zhen a deep look, Karl sighed and said:

"Alright! Let me get straight to the point. I wonder if General Pan Zhen would be interested in forming an alliance?"

"An alliance? Interesting. Tell me, how would you form an alliance?"

Upon hearing Karl's words, Pan Zhen paused in his flipping through the book and then asked in return.

Seeing Pan Zhen's reaction, Karl's lips, hidden beneath his robe, curled slightly upwards, forming a smile before returning to normal.

Seeing that Pan Zhen was taking the bait, Karl didn't keep him in suspense and directly revealed the purpose of his trip.

"It seems that General Pan Zhen has a deep understanding of the current situation facing the known universe. To be honest, the information revealed far exceeds what I previously imagined. And Lord Lieyang must have revealed some of the secrets to the General as well!"

As he spoke, Karl gave Pan Zhen a meaningful look, perhaps only the two of them could understand what he was saying.

Pan Zhen did not respond to Karl, but simply said:

"Oh! Go on!"

Carl was not disappointed and said again:

"The existence of void creatures has been confirmed, which also proves that the path I have taken is correct. However, although the path is correct, the dangers involved are far greater than I had previously estimated."

"Given my current situation, I have no insurance against illusions."

Before Karl could finish speaking, Pan Zhen interrupted him with a single sentence.

"So... are you planning to use us as your allies or as a shield?"

Pan Zhen curled his lips into a disdainful smile and stared at Karl with a look of dissatisfaction.

Who doesn't know who? After all that, you just want him to be your free henchman, right? Is Karl out of his mind? Do you think he's that easy to fool?

No! Do you think Pan Zhen is so easily fooled?

Karl made no attempt to argue against Pan Zhen's mockery, but simply corrected him:

“General, this is not deception, but mutual assistance. You must know that the outcome of the war on the front lines is unpredictable, not to mention that the power behind the void is far greater than we can see. Perhaps it won’t be long before we have to face those madmen ourselves.”

"In my energy rating, the situation we are facing now is only the beginning. Once the void is completely opened, it is uncertain whether the known universe can continue to be dominated by the divine river body life! No! Perhaps by then, it is uncertain whether the known universe can even exist."

At this point, Karl paused, then continued in a solemn voice:

"We must prepare for the worst if we lose the war. Perhaps you also need to consider the future of the Lieyang civilization. How long can Lieyang hold out in its current state? A thousand years or ten thousand? The future is full of uncertainty, and we must find another way to survive."

At this point, Carl stopped talking; for a man of his taciturn nature, he had said enough for the day.

If it weren't for his deep-seated conviction, he wouldn't have wanted to face these violent freaks.

Why not just lie in Deathsong Academy and read a book? Why come here and make a fool of yourself?

He understood that coming here might not necessarily lead to a good outcome, but he still wanted to come.

Everything was for that last remaining meaning in our hearts, to awaken the consciousness of an era.

After hearing Karl's explanation, Pan Zhen did not respond immediately, but instead looked at him silently, as if trying to see through him.

Facing Pan Zhen's direct gaze, Karl showed no fear, remaining motionless as he stared at the imposing figure, just as he had when he arrived.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment, with only the burning flames continuing to burn tirelessly.

Finally, Pan Zhen's deep voice resounded throughout the room, as if time were turning back.

"Karl, do you really have such a negative view of that war and that kid?"

In response to Pan Zhen's question, Karl replied without hesitation:

"The outcome of this war is not important, nor is that guy. What is important is that we will have to face the Void sooner or later, and that place is unknown. No! It should already be showing signs of it. It will be a massive force, an existence capable of annihilating the known universe."

"Even with beings like Teacher Kieran and your Sun God guarding the gates of the universe, no one can know whether the outcome will be good or bad."

"General, do you think it's wrong for us to make some preparations, given that we're capable of hunting void creatures that aim to conquer the universe?"

"I see!"

Pan Zhen muttered to himself, then looked down at the books on the table and finally made a decision.

“Karl! Even so, I will not disobey the will of my god. No matter what the future holds, we, the Blazing Sun, will face it head-on. And now, the Blazing Sun civilization is ruled by Lena, not me. I believe she will give you and me an answer in the future.”

"Really!"

Although he had expected it, Karl still felt a great sense of regret after hearing Pan Zhen's words.

“In that case, there’s no need for me to linger here. However, I believe we will have a day to cooperate in the future, General Pan Zhen.”

The moment he finished speaking, Karl slowly stood up, pushed open the door without looking back, and walked out of the Heavenly Path Tower.

Pan Zhen didn't say a word about Karl's departure. The future was no longer his concern; the future of Lieyang belonged to Lena.

With Karl gone, the four guardians lowered their guard and breathed a sigh of relief.

They dared not let their guard down against the mastermind behind the downfall of the Holy Queen Keisha.

Fortunately, he has already left the Heavenly Dao Star System, and they can finally rest assured.

Deep within the Heavenly Dao Tower, Pan Zhen continued to leisurely flip through the books in his hands, as if some mysterious power was drawing this guardian of the blazing sun.

After a long silence, Pan Zhen finally stopped what he was doing and dialed the secret communication.

After a short wait, the connection was established on the other end of the secret communication.

As soon as the call connected, a noisy and chaotic sound filled Pan Zhen's mind.

This made Pan Zhen frown, but after a moment, he said directly:

"His Majesty!"

Meanwhile, Lena, while frantically bombarding the enemy, shouted in response:

"Ah! It's General Pan Zhen! What's the matter? I'm quite busy right now, so please speak quickly."

At this point, Lena suddenly shouted:

"Damn it, Liu Chuang, don't try to take this lying down! You're not like Glenn, that iron lump, you can't take a beating."

Pan Zhen heard all these words. He sighed inwardly, then said calmly:

"Your Majesty, do you think this war can be won?"

"What? You can win? That's obvious! With me, the goddess, here, there's no way we can lose this war. Don't worry! I'm incredibly strong right now. Besides, that guy has been preparing for so long, how could he possibly fail?"

Lena paused for a moment, then answered without hesitation, her words filled with confidence in the victory of this war.

"Understood!"

Although what Lena said was a bit naive, it was enough.

After Pan Zhen gave him a few words of advice, he hung up the call.

Looking at her hands, Lena was stunned for a moment, then muttered to herself:

"Has this old guy lost his mind? Why is he asking all this nonsense? Forget it! Let's deal with these guys first."

"Come on! You scum, taste the infinite firepower of this goddess's solar flare bombardment."

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The scorching and violent energy continued to erupt until it filled the entire battlefield, and in an instant, the group of void blades were turned into a pile of ashes.
