829 Karma Coming Too Quick Like a Tornado (1/2)

Chapter 829 – Karma Coming Too Quick Like a Tornado

Di Chen and the others did not stay in King City for long before they returned to their own territories.

The changes in Minnan Province had caught Di Chen and the others off guard. The Yanhuang Alliance was originally having a turn for the good with the help of a Silver Hand, but now they were shaky once more.

Their future was dim.

After seizing Minnan Province, Shanhai City's land area was the same as the entire Yanhuang Alliance, and they were terrifyingly strong.

Compared to the European states, Shanhai City was three to four of them.

No matter how Silver Hand continued to fund them, Di Chen and the others could not see a way for them to win against Shanhai City on their own. As for making foreign members attack Shanhai City, such a move was impossible at the moment.

Not to mention the long distance, a cross country war would have many the technological difficulties. The academic faction that had not struck out was also a worry for Silver Hand.

This was only the 4th year of Gaia and the academic faction would not allow Silver Hand to break the game ecosystem. If Silver Hand messed around like that, how would they be able to fight future country wars?

Apart from that, Silver Hand needed to consider the reactions of the grassroots Lords. If they helped the Yanhuang Alliance so openly, what would the domestic players think?

Moreover, they might not succeed in attacking Shanhai City while their bases might get attacked.

Hence, within a short time, Silver Hand would not face off against Shanhai City. If they were to fight, it would be against Shanhai City's overseas bases and not their Chinese territory.

Taking a step back, even if they had overseas allies come over to aid them, what would happen to the Yanhuang Alliance? Not to mention how they would not be able to raise their heads in Silver Hand, but they would also be named as traitors.

Using the country war rules, Shanhai Alliance could use the powers within the country to fight against the invaders. They could force Yanhuang Alliance into a corner and down their own graves.

Even if Silver Hand was able to deal a blow to Shanhai City, both sides would suffer immense losses.

Putting it another way, Silver Hand was unable to threaten Shanhai City in China while Shanhai City was unable to threaten members of Silver Hand outside of China.

The two of them were still in a balance.

Hence, no matter what, be it Silver Hand or Di Chen, they would not want to take that step. The higher ups of Silver Hand were worried that the academic faction might blow this matter up.

If that happened, they would be in big trouble.

Silver Hand had always been on guard against the academic faction. A tiger that was able to hide was a scary tiger. In comparison, Shanhai City was just an anomaly.

At such a time, Di Chen and the others had to be calm and think about how to react to this sudden change.

As for the awkward situation that King City was facing, Di Chen and the others had no power to help.

'You asked for it!' Di Chen gloated in his heart. When he successfully made Xunlong Dianxue betray Shanhai City, Xiong Ba was so delighted, and the way he spoke in the alliance also grew more arrogant.

”Now that's great, karma has arrived.”

...

Di Chen and the others just left casually while Xiong Ba was left raging.

Apart from cursing, he was terrified.

He alone managed to make Xunlong Dianxue betray them, digging away at a cornerstone of Shanhai City. Who knows whether or not Qiyue Wuyi, that mad man, would use this as an excuse to take revenge on King City?

Qiyue Wuyi was such a person.

If that happened, Jiangnan Province would never see peace.

All of a sudden, a tremendous pressure pressed down onto Xiong Ba, making it hard for him to breathe.

Thinking about this, Xiong Ba greatly regretted his decision.

”I was in over my head, why did I go provoke that old fox?”

To make matters worse, the cornerstone was not only dug up, but Qiyue Wuyi's strength grew instead, taking down an entire province.

”What happened!”

Xiong Ba grew angrier the more he thought about it, and he also started to suspect whether or not Qiyue Wuyi noticed the displeasure of Xunlong Dianxue. He purposely used his hand to remove this hidden problem.

Pushing the blame onto others was the act of a through leader.

Xiong Ba's face grew even darker. However, scolding was just scolding, and there were things that he had to do.

Helplessly, Xiong Ba ordered Wuqi to lead troops to form defenses at the border to get ready for an attack from Shanhai City. He also sent a letter to Zhan Lang to discuss a closer alliance between the two.

Only Zhan Lang that was similarly in the south could help King City get out of this mess. Luckily, their relationship was good all along, and they had the basis for a closer cooperation.

After writing the letter, Xiong Ba's expression was not relaxed as depending on others did not solve the root of the problem.

He had to strengthen himself.

Thinking about that, Xiong Ba got up and went to the window, looking out at the northwest.

There was a chaotic Xiangnan Province.
