Chapter 2896 - 2896: Seizing the Light Cocoon

Everyone looked at each other, and Su Yang's words were indeed spot on.

"So you mean, they're scheming for something within the Broken Star Domain?" the Supreme Dragon Emperor asked curiously. "But, what in the Broken Star Domain is worth their scheme? Could it be, they... they want to kill the supreme beings inside those light cocoons?"

Upon saying this, the Supreme Dragon Emperor immediately laughed: "I said so, those bastards want to preserve themselves, but that's simply impossible. Su Alliance Leader, I'll go bring them out right now and tell them the Guardian Gods are coming for them. Hmph, let's see how long they'll keep hiding!"

"Dragon Emperor, say less please." The Eternal Divine Emperor said sarcastically, "Can't you avoid highlighting your intelligence?"

"What's wrong with my intelligence?" The Supreme Dragon Emperor retorted defiantly.

"What's wrong with your intelligence?" The Eternal Divine Emperor stared: "You tell me! Those Guardian Gods are coming for Wan Du, what are they after? Wan Du doesn't want to be enemies with the Guardian Gods, so since they're not enemies, should these Guardian Gods deal with their foes first, or should they provoke the neutral parties and lead them to resist?"

"Uh..." The Supreme Dragon Emperor was momentarily tongue-tied.

"The Divine Emperor's analysis is correct!" Su Yang nodded: "In fact, those Guardian Gods aren't coming for people. Their real target isn't us, nor Wan Du, but the light cocoons here!"

"Light cocoons?" Everyone was stunned and glanced at the only remaining two light cocoons beside them.

"You mean, they intend to strangle these light cocoons in their cradles?" the Supreme Dragon Emperor asked quietly.

"Not necessarily!" Su Yang shook his head: "Eye of Chaos, when you retreated to the Broken Star Domain, what were those Guardian Gods doing?"

The Eye of Chaos thought for a moment and said: "When we came over, they seemed to be relocating a light cocoon."

"Are you sure?" Su Yang immediately asked: "When you retreated here, how many light cocoons were there?"

"Three!" The Eye of Chaos replied: "The other two have disappeared!"

"What?" Everyone exclaimed in shock.

Originally, there were five light cocoons in this broken star domain.

Su Yang frowned, speaking solemnly: "Looks like I wasn't wrong, their goal is the light cocoons, not us."

"They feigned a distraction to lure us away, only to relocate these light cocoons."

"If we were here, though our power is far inferior to theirs, as long as we joined forces to attack them, they wouldn't be able to smoothly relocate the light cocoons."

"So, they led part of us away and then launched a sneak attack to relocate the light cocoons without interference!"

"However, as we discovered the situation in advance and rushed back, they failed to move all the light cocoons, only relocating three ultimately!"

Everyone looked at each other as the Human Emperor spoke solemnly: "I believe Su Alliance Leader's analysis is correct. These Guardian Gods are indeed after these light cocoons!"

"But what do they want with the light cocoons?" the Supreme Dragon Emperor wondered.

Su Yang pondered for a moment, then said solemnly: "I have the Earth Principle, which can nurture the light cocoons and birth life. They have the Heavenly Dao Stone Tablet, which can also nurture the light cocoons and birth life. The born supreme beings could possibly be used by them, becoming members of the Guardian Gods."

"I suspect that the Guardian Gods' real purpose is to collect more light cocoons, cultivate more world tree strong ones, then recruit these supreme beings to deal with us!"

Everyone's faces changed; if this is true, the problem is indeed serious.

The Guardian Gods have taken three light cocoons, which means they can at least cultivate three world tree supreme beings. If the Guardian Gods can convince these supreme beings, the Human Clan would be no match for them!

"These Guardian Gods are too despicable!" The Supreme Dragon Emperor cursed angrily: "Su Alliance Leader, what should we do now?"

Su Yang furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, and spoke solemnly: "To deal with them, we must also cultivate more supreme beings to counter them!"

"Is this feasible?" The Supreme Dragon Emperor scoffed: "The supreme beings we cultivate are all ungrateful wolves who don't want to help us against the Guardian Gods. It's useless to cultivate them!"

"We've only cultivated one world tree, other world trees might not be the same." Su Yang said: "Wan Du's world is complicated, there are too many supreme beings, and Wan Du can't control everyone, so they can't make decisions. But other world trees might not face this situation."

"Besides, the Guardian Gods might not be able to deceive everyone. They might encounter a world like Wan Du's, and after cultivation, people may not be willing to collude with them, making their effort futile!"

Everyone nodded; they all agreed with Su Yang's analysis.

"If you put it that way, then we can continue cultivating!" The Supreme Dragon Emperor nodded: "But we only have two light cocoons left. One cocoon is Wan Du's world; if they won't help us, there's no point in cultivating. That leaves just one; we don't know the situation yet. Should we continue cultivating?"

Everyone's expressions froze, as the Eternal Divine Emperor spoke solemnly: "We are left with only this one light cocoon, and we don't know the outcome of cultivation. The Guardian Gods have taken three light cocoons, surpassing us in numbers, so cultivating would disadvantage us!"

The Supreme Dragon Emperor suggested: "How about going somewhere to fetch similar light cocoons?"

"Where to fetch them?" The Human Emperor questioned.

"Uh..." The Supreme Dragon Emperor fell silent, not knowing where to fetch them.

"Su Alliance Leader, should we find the Guardian Gods and snatch these light cocoons back?" The Human Emperor spoke earnestly.

Others clenched their fists; having three light cocoons snatched was indeed disheartening for everyone.

Su Yang shook his head: "Our strength is far inferior to theirs; forcibly snatching them would make us no match. Moreover, we don't even know where these Guardian Gods are hiding. The Immortal Palace has expanded many times over, so finding them is akin to searching for a needle in a haystack. Snatching their light cocoons is unrealistic!"

"Then what do we do?" The Supreme Dragon Emperor asked helplessly.

Su Yang said: "We need to think of a way to get more light cocoons!"

"How do we do that?" The Supreme Dragon Emperor asked: "Other than snatching their light cocoons, are there other ways?"

Su Yang looked at the Supreme Dragon Emperor and spoke softly: "Have you ever thought about where these light cocoons come from?"
