The battlefield video of Yi Jue rescuing True Immortal Huo Liu has already spread within the society of the Human Federation.

Due to being on the battlefield and affected by various energy fields, the video couldn’t be filmed very clearly, but the general images are still discernible.

First is True Immortal Huo Liu’s ambush on the Nascent Soul Guo Po, which was quite shocking. Huo Liu seemed to imitate, appearing as if clad in a thin mecha. However, since when could the Human Race’s mecha actually contend with a division-level Insectoid?

Moreover, this mecha won decisively!

Then the many division-level Insectoids suddenly appeared. Human spectators were shocked: So many division-level Insectoids attacking a Human Race mecha, how shameless!

Next was True Immortal Huo Liu’s blink to dodge, though affected by the Insectoid force field, his speed wasn’t exceptionally fast, yet it’s unimaginable for the Human Race. This instantaneous acceleration must exceed a hundred Gs, right?

Fortunately, the one besieged was a Master-class Main Battleship, and its observation equipment was of high grade, able to observe where Huo Liu blinked to and then see him continuing to be besieged by division-level Insectoids.

Aside from Huo Liu’s initial ambush, the rest of the battle process was extremely fast. Not only was the speed swift, but the offensive and defensive maneuvers were dizzying, not discernible by the human eye.

However, it didn’t matter if they couldn’t see clearly; the combat video can be analyzed frame by frame. Many experts and masters are not idle; everyone brainstorms to understand all intentions and data of both sides.

Of course, the biggest problem comes after Huo Liu was targeted and due to inability to maintain the imitation, he revealed his true form.

Actually, his true form appeared for an extremely brief moment in the video, but high-speed filming from the warship left dozens of frames of his image. Though still indistinct, people could make out this was a Human, and the mecha was blasted apart.

The crucial point is that not only was the mecha blasted apart, but even the spacesuit was gone—and even one leg was missing!

The technology here surpasses that of the Earth Realm significantly, yet the Human Race’s body structure doesn’t differ much—even if the humans here seem a bit stronger, no one can survive in outer space without a spacesuit.

However, this scene was vividly displayed before everyone—the Human warrior’s half body was nearly wrecked, yet the blood hadn’t boiled nor had the body exploded!

If this phenomenon can be explained by a Super Gene Warrior, the next scene is completely incomprehensible—a shadowy figure abruptly appeared next to the warrior.

The reason for saying shadowy is due to expert and master analysis; ordinary people can’t make out any anomaly on the image, and many couldn’t be certain if there’s a shadow there even with these prompts.

Yi Jue’s silhouette was very hazy, but to rescue Huo Liu, she unleashed protective magical treasures and defense talismans, adding a mysterious side to the sci-fi realm of the Human Race.

Finally, she suddenly activated and disappeared with Huo Liu; it’s said the Human warriors who witnessed this were stunned on the spot, and someone even shouted in the original video, "Where did that guy hide?"

Actually, Yi Jue’s far-escape ability is far inferior to Feng Jun’s, with a blink distance of around two thousand miles. Nonetheless, her Art of Concealment is strong; she first blinks amid lower-level Insectoids and then blinks away from them.

In the end, she chose a place without attention and directly tore open space and left.

The Human society was thus in an uproar; they were uncertain of this force’s origin. Now it appears the other side is definitely not just Super Gene Warriors, but more likely aligned with mysterious-side humans, even possibly from a different civilization.

Facing different civilizations, the Human Race’s initial reaction remains apprehension, precisely because during the interstellar age of great navigation, the Human Race collided head-on with Insectoid civilization, which forced everyone to unite and form the Human Federation.

This time appearing seem to be humanoid beings choosing to act against Insectoids, reassuring many Human Race members, but total peace of mind is impossible.

Nevertheless, no matter what, the goodwill released by the other side could be felt by the Human Federation—the target of the initial attack was exactly the division-level Insectoids besieging the Human Race warship.

Thus, the Human Federation began to shout in various ways, calling those two "Human warriors" who appeared that day, hoping for cooperation to jointly strike against the Insectoids.

From the True Sage known as Diaosou to those individual True Immortals, all cultivators have basically learned of this information. However, so far, everyone remains indifferent, each focusing on scheming against Insectoids.

The Insect Race also understands that it might be facing another type of human, yet it doesn’t entertain thoughts of cooperation—the cultivation path of Incense Fire Ascension views all beings outside its system as ants and heretics.

Meanwhile, they’ve learned how to deal with these ambushers. First, they must shrink their defenses and gather together; secondly... is to repeat the previous ambush tactics.

Due to the Insect Race’s contraction, the Human Federation’s pressure eased slightly, but for cultivators in Tianqin, the difficulty of ambushes increased, and risks grew significantly.

The fortunate thing is that no one complained about Yi Jue; they’re not young and inexperienced anymore. Everyone knows that we can’t keep ambushing indefinitely. As for Huo Liu True Immortal falling into the Insect Race’s trap, it can only be said that he was unlucky.

Some people did mention, thankfully, Feng Jun was here, able to take Huo Liu away for healing at the first opportunity.

Qinghuang True Immortal came to speak to Yi Jue about this matter, hoping to unify their stance on how to communicate with the two sects of cultivators.

After all, this mishap was caused by cultivators outside the two sects, so it was necessary for everyone to come up with a strategy.

However, before he could explain his intentions, he was surprised to see another True Sage, "Ren Tu True Sage... you’ve returned?"

Ren Tu glanced at him, nodded slightly, and then released his Divine Sense.

Not long after, Old Fisherman also arrived, curious to ask, "Have you completed the research on the Earth Vein Technique?"

"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand," Ren Tu replied casually, then shifted back to the main topic, "We’ve been exposed. What are your plans?"

"It only happened because you weren’t around," Old Fisherman grumbled first but didn’t pursue it further, "I have no plans. Just ignore it... unless they dare to make a move against us?"

This wasn’t only his thought; other Tianqin cultivators thought the same, carrying the inherent arrogance of cultivators — after all, what are they but a group of mortals. Do they really think we must meet whenever they wish?

Of course, when it can’t be concealed, revealing identities can suffice. We’re not interested in your civilization. As long as you don’t cause trouble, we can coexist peacefully.

Ren Tu True Sage understood everyone’s thoughts and nodded, "I agree, but these insects dared to set traps to harm our Tianqin cultivators. We cannot let this matter rest."

"Of course, we can’t let it rest," Old Fisherman True Sage replied decisively, "If I weren’t the only True Sage here, I would have already punished them... after all, this place is under Xuanhuang Sect’s protection, and I must consider other cultivators."

Old Fisherman True Sage could naturally strike down those hidden Insect Race ambushers, but to him, those Nascent Soul-level beings weren’t worth mentioning. He had to consider who would ensure the safety of the other cultivators if he took action.

When Huo Liu True Immortal was ambushed, Old Fisherman was fighting thousands of miles away. Fortunately, Yi Jue had a strong sense of responsibility and was constantly looking after their fellow members who weren’t strong in combat, ensuring timely rescue.

Once Yi Jue managed to get Huo Liu out of the Insect World, Old Fisherman dared not act recklessly anymore, and he had to keep calm to be ready to support Tianqin cultivators who might encounter trouble at any moment.

Ultimately, Old Fisherman cares a lot about his reputation. If under his responsibility, Human Race cultivators suffered losses, he’d be embarrassed, even if those attacked were outside the two sects. He would still protect — as it pertains to the True Sage’s dignity.

Indeed, while the Tianqin Plane is highly protective of its domains, uniting against external threats is politically correct — especially since Tianqin emphasizes morality and reputation. How could a True Sage fail to protect others on their grounds?

Among Tianqin cultivators, there are definitely selfish individuals who would ignore the lives of unrelated people, but not a few think like Old Fisherman.

Of course, his words also contained complaints — I didn’t act just because you, Ren Tu, returned to Tianqin, right?

"My mistake," Ren Tu True Sage admitted straightforwardly, but that was all he said on the matter, "Let’s cooperate, then. We’ll take turns taking action while the other guards the junior combatants... What do you think?"

"Agreed," Old Fisherman True Sage nodded, "Let’s start now. Will you go first or should I?"

"I’ll go first," Ren Tu, also wanting to save face, said, "I’ve been resting in Tianqin for a while. You’ve worked hard lately, so take a break."

"So you do acknowledge my hard work?" Old Fisherman True Sage couldn’t help but retort, "You ran off fast, leaving all the work to me."

Ren Tu True Sage ignored his complaints and directly changed the topic, "By the way, I’ve heard the Insect Race in Zhezhi Galaxy has managed a warp. We must be wary of this trick."

Old Fisherman True Sage, also a seasoned and cunning individual, said, "Just say what you mean, what’s on your mind?"

"Two True Sages are a bit insufficient," Ren Tu answered solemnly, "With regards to the Zhezhi Galaxy over there, I think Luan Xiong should remain, able to support here if necessary... actually, I think adding another True Sage here would be more reasonable."

Old Fisherman True Sage furrowed his brow in thought and asked gravely, "Call a True Sage over from the passage entrance?"
