Chapter 1508: Boundless Righteousness

At the invitation of the higher-ups of Shadow Island, the leaders and top figures from various stars made their way into the city, greeted by a dazzling array of neon lights. As they continued forward, they began to notice the extraordinary nature of Shadow Island, gasping in awe at everything they saw!

"This road..."

"How is this road so solid and radiant? What material is it made of?"

"What kind of treasure is that? It can project the scenery in the sky so vividly! Such precious artifacts are everywhere!"

"Look at that child!"

"What?! That child is only a few years old at most, yet he has the cultivation of a Martial Emperor? And the child next to him is also a Martial Emperor?!"

"Hiss!!!"

"This Shadow Island seems incredibly powerful. What kind of force is this?!"

...

The exclamations grew increasingly exaggerated, and the top figures from various stars couldn't help but lose their composure.

These were the leading figures of the top forces from their respective stars, some even at the level of star lords. Yet, as they walked further, they began to question their own lives, gasping in astonishment like country folk visiting the city for the first time!

Finally, they entered the office building in the city center and took their seats in the conference room, waiting in silence.

The powerful figures from all sides still wore expressions of shock, their hearts roiling with turmoil!

However, being the influential figures they were, they quickly steadied their minds. At least on the surface, they couldn't show too much loss of composure, lest they be ridiculed.

They still had that much grace and composure.

Unfortunately, this forced composure was ultimately an act. Most of them didn't look as natural as they wanted to, sitting stiffly and cautiously, their nervousness evident despite their efforts.

It wasn't until the servants respectfully served tea and left that their forced calm began to crack.

The top figures from various stars, sitting in the back rows, couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"This teacup seems to have an aura of the Dao flowing through it. Could it be a top-tier ancient artifact...?"

"What?!"

"A top-tier ancient artifact used as a teacup? That's impossible!"

"Wait... it really seems to be one."

"Not just the teacups! Fellow Daoists, haven't you noticed that the tables and chairs we're sitting on are also ancient artifacts?!"

"Heavens, this is unheard of!"

"Hiss..."

Another round of hushed gasps filled the room, and the air in the conference room seemed to grow colder.

For a moment, everyone fell silent, each lost in their own thoughts.

Whether it was the strength displayed by the Shadow Island members in the previous battles or everything they were witnessing now, it all pointed to the extraordinary nature of Shadow Island.

Yet, many of those present had never even heard of Shadow Island before.

Finally, after a period of waiting, the doors to the conference room opened, and several spirited elders strode in.

Among them were Lu Da Sheng, Lu Qing Shan, Qing Huan Xiang, and Wu Yong Hong, the seasoned figures of Shadow Island.

At this moment, Lu Qing Shan and the others stood before the main seats, clasping their fists in greeting.

"On behalf of Shadow Island, we thank you all for coming from afar to lend your aid!"

Hearing this, the leaders and representatives from various stars all stood up and returned the gesture.

"You are too kind!"

Only after Lu Qing Shan and the others gestured for them to sit did everyone take their seats again.

After a few rounds of polite introductions, Lu Da Sheng and the others exchanged glances, and finally, Lu Da Sheng spoke up, cutting straight to the point.

"Everyone, I won't beat around the bush. Let's get straight to the matter at hand."

"As you all know, the alien races that have been wreaking havoc across the galaxies have suddenly gone silent."

"If I'm not mistaken, it's likely that all the alien races from across the galaxy have gathered in the spatial gate above us, concentrating their forces to attack Shadow Island!" Lu Da Sheng pointed upward, his voice heavy.

As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the room changed!

The leaders from various stars were so shocked that they were momentarily speechless!

"What?!"

"All the alien races from the entire galaxy are here?!"

"No wonder, no wonder even with the strength of Shadow Island, you still need our help..."

"No wonder there are so many alien races at that spatial gate..."

After the initial shock, the leaders from various stars began to realize that this was likely the truth.

"All the alien races from the entire galaxy..."

Gui Wan Hai's eyes trembled.

"If such a number of enemies appeared in Lan Star, we would have been wiped out long ago!"

As soon as he spoke, the others around him also showed grave expressions.

The top figures from their respective stars felt the same way. Just imagining the despair of facing the combined forces of the entire galaxy's alien races, some of them were already breaking out in cold sweat!

The meeting had just begun, but it was already plunged into a brief silence of shock.

"That's why I humbly request that all of you stay on Shadow Island for the time being." After a moment of contemplation, Lu Da Sheng clasped his fists and addressed the group.

As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of the top figures from various stars changed.

Some looked grave, others fearful, some had flickering eyes, while others subtly observed the reactions of those around them...

Faced with the combined forces of the entire galaxy's alien races, everyone felt immense pressure. The back rows of the conference room were soon filled with hushed discussions, creating a buzz of noise.

"We came to lend aid, and that's already going above and beyond."

"Fellow Daoist, that's too narrow-minded! The fact that the alien races of the entire galaxy are gathered here is highly suspicious. There must be a conspiracy. If we stand by and do nothing, what will happen when the alien races overrun your star?"

"Well said! As the saying goes, 'When the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold.' Although we come from different stars, we are all part of the same galaxy. Yun Star is the boundary star. If Yun Star falls, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

"This... you all make a good point. I was being shortsighted."

...

The arguments gradually subsided, and everyone quickly reached a consensus.

Those seated here were all top figures from their respective stars. Even if some harbored ulterior motives, they still understood the importance of the situation. At the very least, they had a sense of the bigger picture.

In just a few moments, the top figures from various stars all wore determined expressions, and no one spoke out of turn again.

All eyes turned to the leaders seated at the front left.

The leaders also made their stance clear, their eyes filled with righteousness.

"Now that the alien races are gathered here, we must work together!"

"Exactly! When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. If we leave now, we will regret it when the alien races grow stronger!"

"We are all part of the Yun Star galaxy. It is our duty to fight together!"

Seeing this, Lu Da Sheng and the others showed expressions of gratitude and bowed respectfully.

"We thank you all for your assistance. On behalf of Shadow Island, we express our deepest gratitude!"

"Since you all are so righteous, we will no longer keep you in the dark. We will address the doubts in your hearts..."
