# Chapter 2628: The Situation Gradually Becomes Clear
Noah and Manti's faces were dark as they wondered whether joining the Carbon Alliance was actually a good thing or a bad thing!
Was Jiangnan really going to spray them all?
Although the establishment of the Carbon Alliance already faced pressure from all sides, whether they sprayed or not, they would be targeted anyway!
But watching Jiangnan's posture of wanting to curse everyone out, they were still a bit nervous!
Yang Jian whispered:
(ﾉ)￢₃￢)"That Tianli, you can pay more attention to him. He's an old powerhouse who was originally the main person in charge of the Lvzhe!"
"However, in recent years, he was pushed out because of Wuzui's rise and retreated behind the scenes to go into seclusion and train hard. Now that Wuzui has absconded, Tianli has returned to the stage to take charge. He should not be weak!"
Judging from the Bose Race's current strategy, they will inevitably strike against the Carbon Alliance in the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle!
Since Tianli was pushed out, he must have something to offer!
Jiangnan smiled: "I know, but there's no need to be too concerned about it, because right now... I'm really strong!"
It wasn't that Jiangnan was getting cocky, but even if he were to fight Wuzui again now, he could take him down in no time!
Jiangnan's current strength was on a completely different level from half a year ago!
What surprised Jiangnan a bit was that Wuzui had actually run away?
He wondered if he would ever have the chance to meet him again. Jiangnan was actually looking forward to it!
He directly skipped over the Dark Cosmos, Apocalypse, and Gamma entities!
The three races' lineups entering were still the old ones: the Ye family sisters, Du Linyu, Walter Bennilu and the others, except the soldiers they brought were really too many!
Jiangnan's gaze couldn't help but fall on the Celestial Star Race!
Last time, all the people from the Celestial Star Race were killed by Jiangnan. This time, they had clearly been replaced with new ones!
Their lineup was still terrifying. All of them who came were planets, densely packed, almost encompassing all types of planets in the starry sky!
Looking from afar, it was like they had pulled a large-scale galaxy over!
The leader was the neutron star Mailiushi, and the leading force entering was also a planet Jiangnan didn't recognize!
One of them was a corundum star with a diameter of 300,000 kilometers, completely transparent, reflecting extremely dazzling starlight!
And there seemed to be signs of life on the planet?
Jiangnan suddenly got excited: (*ﾟﾛﾟ)!! "Oohoho~ A diamond planet? This can also give birth to life?"
"Brother! Is your planet for sale? How much? Don't worry, I'm just asking. I won't buy it. I'll just take it!"
Corundum Star: ???
"Pfft! Am I selling myself? I am a corundum star, the hardest substance in the entire universe! There is no other!"
Jiangnan immediately rubbed his hands together, his eyes growing even brighter!
He wanted it even more, okay?
(ʃƪ⁰̷̴꒨⁰̷̴) "I know someone quite similar to you, but... he got killed!"
Gang Jin: 눈~눈 (I didn't expect that even after so many episodes, I still have a role...)
Corundum Star sneered: "Want it? Be careful not to break your teeth! Hmph~"
Yang Jian whispered: (ﾉ)￢₃￢) "He's not lying. I looked into this planet. It belongs to the first generation of stars, born in the early days of the universe's creation. Such planets are extremely rare and very difficult to give birth to life!"
"Corundum Star only gave birth to conscious life in the last few million years!"
"And like the Celestial Kingdom Star beside him, it's an extremely special life planet, belonging to a very unique lineage within the Celestial Star Race!"
"Because not all Celestial Star Race members can give birth to life on their own planet bodies!"
Jiangnan's eyes flickered as he looked at the Celestial Kingdom Star beside the Corundum Star!
It emitted a golden radiance, even having an atmosphere and cloud seas. The surface was covered in golden forests. It wasn't just as simple as giving birth to life!
The surface of Celestial Kingdom Star had even given birth to a high-intelligence civilization!
Jiangnan's mouth twitched:
(￢﹏￢٥) "Their resident planet doesn't orbit a star properly but instead comes to participate in a Starry Sky War... Do the people on that planet even know?"
They saw on Celestial Kingdom Star, endless golden light converged into a human figure, who looked calmly at Jiangnan, sneering inwardly with no fear in their eyes!
This made Jiangnan even more interested!
On the Celestial Star Race side, an extremely condensed Stardust figure flickered in and out of existence, as if carrying a sea of stars within their body!
Their aura was far stronger than An Qu and Yao Gen from before. This was the Celestial Star Race commander, Ming Sha!
꒰⸝⸝乛⌒乛⸝⸝꒱ "Hmph~ Why bother getting angry with him? When the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle comes, we'll see clearly!"
"I will avenge the younger generation. New grudges and old hatreds can be settled all at once!"
Jiangnan frowned deeply: (｡･ˇ～ˇ･｡) "This guy doesn't seem to be at the Star Breaker level, right? His aura..."
Yang Jian said in a low voice: "You noticed? This Ming Sha also has an impressive background. He was originally not at the Star Breaker level. He was once a Star Devourer level existence like Chen Mu!"
"About three thousand years ago, just after breaking through to Star Devourer, he participated in the operation to surround Jiang Fan. Unfortunately, he was cut down in rank by Jiang Fan and never managed to rise back up, so..."
Jiangnan's mouth twitched: (￢﹏￢٥) "Gege Fan's influence is really that wide?"
He had hammered Youming and fought Ming Sha?
No wonder Ming Sha had such a big opinion of this side!
On the Insect Race side, Chong Qianjin led the team, and the battlefield commanders were still Chong Kun Chong and Chong Yulu!
During the Cosmos Grand Hunt, the Insect Race had sent three Mother Empress Insects. Chong Yunyun was completely killed by Wu Zang's single slash. Chong Kun Chong offered Ancestral Blood and summoned the Blood Corpse Insect Ancestor, then reincarnated!
The Blood Corpse Insect Ancestor was also killed by Jiangnan's Void Slash, and Chong Yulu was also cut by Jiangnan's two-dimensional blade and went into reincarnation!
Now Chong Kun Chong was still a Mother Empress Insect identity. She had lost her Ancestral Blood, but the other Mother Empress Insects each gave her a bit of their own Ancestral Blood, barely piecing together a portion for her!
Chong Qianjin had changed a lot after experiencing the incident with Chong Feiyu. Seeing Chong Kun Chong sacrifice so much for the Insect Race, she ultimately decided to protect her!
But at this moment, Chong Laoliu and Chong Yulu were both a bit nervous seeing Jiangnan!
When they saw Jiangnan smiling and greeting them, their faces turned pale with fear, and they didn't dare to meet his gaze!
The two of them were really scared to death by him!
How did they end up as allies?
However, facing the enemy who was once the strongest, the one they couldn't defeat even with all their might, now becoming an ally, this matter was still quite reassuring!
Seeing the two insects so afraid, Jiangnan didn't push further to approach them!
Instead, he turned his head to look at Xuan Se of the Chaos Race!
Jiangnan grinned:
(￢̫￢) "Brother Xuan Se! You seem to have forgotten something you still need to give me, right?"
"The ransom money we agreed on, I haven't received a single cent yet. If you don't give me the money this time, I'll take your little life along with it, deal?"
Xuan Se shivered, his face turning white as he hurriedly explained:
੧੧꒰⸝⸝☍﹏⁰。⸝⸝꒱ "No, no! I don't mean to not give it! I've already sold off my assets, taken high loans, and prepared everything!"
"But... but the clan won't let me give it, and I have no choice. I'm just..."
However, Gu Qiong beside Xuan Se coldly shouted:
꒰⸝⸝￢益￢⸝⸝꒱ "Xuan Se! Shut the hell up. Don't bring shame to the Chaos Race!"
"When has the life of our Chaos Race members ever been decided by an outsider?"
Xuan Se anxiously said: ꒰ง⸝⸝°益°⸝⸝꒱ง "No! This is my money. I want to give it. Is that not allowed? I..."
But Gu Qiong glared at Xuan Se, forcing him to shut up!
Xuan Se looked dejected, almost crying!
Why did they make me come to participate in this Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle again? I've really run out of luck!
How hard is it for me to want to retire to the mountains?
If you guys send me here but don't listen to me, what's the point of me coming?
Hun Yuan and Di Huang had both been killed by Jiangnan. This Gu Qiong was clearly taking their place and serving as the Chaos Race commander!
Gu Qiong sneered: "Jiangnan! Perhaps before, we were still afraid of your strength, but now it's different!"
"Don't be too arrogant. It won't do you any good!"
"Right? Brother Celestial Kingdom? Senior Ming Sha?"
They all sneered in response, everything unspoken!
Jiangnan frowned. What was going on? Was there some shady deal going on behind the scenes?
Yang Jian snorted coldly twice: "Not surprising. After our Carbon Alliance was established, the other races weren't idle either. Led by the Stardust Race and the Celestial Star Race, they also took the opportunity to form a Material-Based Life Alliance, referred to as the Matter Alliance!"
"In this half year, they've also built up quite a big operation. The member races involved include Chaos, Crystal, Metal, Carbon Thread, Lumu, Sage, Anti-Matter, Star Mirror, Star Art, Spirit Demon, Tungsten Armor, Magnetic Mother, and so on..."
"Mostly material-based life forms, but there are also some Carbon-Based and Energy-Based life forms!"
Jiangnan was stunned. Good heavens, the Matter Alliance?
It seemed he wasn't the only speculator. No wonder the Chaos Race rejected his invitation, and even the Insect Race wasn't following along anymore!
Jiangnan squinted: "Even so, the Carbon Alliance is still much stronger than the Matter Alliance. They don't seem to have the guts to talk back to me like that, right?"
Yang Jian's expression turned serious: "It's not that simple. The Matter Alliance originally had the Starlight Alliance's business circle as its foundation, and many races have deep cooperative relationships with the Silicon-Based Race..."
"So... the actual controller behind the Matter Alliance is likely the Silicon-Based Race!"
Jiangnan sneered coldly. It wasn't just likely—it was definitely them!
Since the Silicon-Based Race had the intention of dominating the starry sky, how could they not have their own little brothers supporting them?
They couldn't go to war with the entire starry sky alone!
So they secretly fostered the establishment of the Matter Alliance. And since material-based life forms fit the Silicon-Based Race's resource acquisition pathway...
Under the protection of top-tier strength like the Silicon-Based Race's Ultimate Star Weapon, the Matter Alliance had room to survive, no longer needing to fear the oppression of the Bose Race!
The thigh they were hugging was the Silicon-Based Race's!
It had to be said that this was indeed a viable path, but the price paid was also considerable!
Because once they did this, the Silicon-Based Race's commands would be the only ones in the Matter Alliance!
And the Matter Alliance was merely a tool in the Silicon-Based Race's hands!
In essence, it was still different from the Carbon Alliance's deep cooperative relationship!
Jiangnan tilted his head: (๑•̌～•̑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "What about the Angel Race? Are they in the Matter Alliance too?"
Yang Jian shook his head: "No... Our Carbon Alliance didn't want them, and the Matter Alliance didn't want the Angels either... So their options were only one..."
Jiangnan glanced over at Qian Li!
Hmph~ Going to be a dog for the lone Bose Race?
It seemed that to maintain their position in the top ten sequences, the Angel Race was completely throwing all caution to the wind!
And after the Cosmos Grand Hunt, the Jiang-Silicon War, and half a year of preparation, on the eve of the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle!
The new starry sky situation was becoming clear!
