Chapter 20
Persuasion, Ambition Exposed. Old Sun Will Smash You With One Blow.

Du Kao looked at Ge Heng Yu, seemingly agreeing with his opinion. A smile appeared on his face, and he pressed his advantage.

“You think it makes sense too.

Why don't we lift the control now, and I can help you grow…,”

He had only said half of it when Ge Heng Yu raised his hand to interrupt him, his gaze fixed on Du Kao.

“It makes some sense, but not much.

Because I only made them pledge allegiance, I didn't restrict their other thoughts.

Also, now that there's a global ceasefire, and everyone's working together to develop technology, while the officials are clean and honest,

the world is experiencing unprecedented peace and prosperity.

People all over the world have even established a World Peace Day to celebrate this day.

So, isn't that a good thing?

Why are you still trying to persuade me?

Do you want to see countries oppose each other and the war continue?

Or do you have ulterior motives, with ill intentions?”

His words were like a heavy blow, striking directly at Du Kao's heart.

Especially when facing Ge Heng Yu's gaze, Du Kao felt a strange sense of unease, feeling like he was being seen through.

Ge Heng Yu ignored Du Kao's slightly averted gaze.

He turned his head to look at Sun Wukong on the other side, who was being driven to distraction by his words.

“Sun Wukong, I've learned about you, you're the guardian deity of the Celestial Dynasty.

I still respect you.

Like I just said, I'm just making them pledge loyalty and do things that are beneficial to Earth.

Besides, Earth is about to be invaded by the alien Taotie.

If I have everyone united, wouldn't it be better to gather strength against the enemy?

You should have no reason to oppose me.”

With a loud *pa*!

Sun Wukong slapped his palm on the table, his face full of anger.

“Sophistry, you're using sophistry.

My master said, those who interfere with people's hearts, their hearts are not pure.

You may be acting well now, but it's only temporary.

If your ambitions grow one day, and you wreak havoc, who knows what will happen? Who can stop you?”

Du Kao seemed to be emboldened by Sun Wukong's words, and spoke up.

“That's right, can you forever guarantee that you won't fall into absolute desire for power?

Once you fall into the desire for power, it will be an irreparable disaster for Earth.

Autocracy is unacceptable.”

Ge Heng Yu frowned, dismissing Du Kao's words as nonsense.

The guy had a guilty conscience and wasn't really concerned about the people.

His evasive gaze earlier was proof enough.

Now he had to persuade Sun Wukong, who was truly concerned for the people but also rigid.

For such a powerful combat force, Ge Heng Yu didn't want him to become an opponent, that would be too much of a waste.

“Sun Wukong, do you know that if Earth is divided into numerous countries again, each for themselves, how many people will die when facing the alien invasion?”

Before Sun Wukong could answer, Ge Heng Yu stretched out four fingers.

“At least half the population, 4 billion people.

Because it's not just the Taotie invading, it's a whole bunch of space-faring civilizations from the Minghe Galaxy.

They have millions of fleets that can easily destroy planets.

And after the disaster, the countries will still merge into a United Nations.

This is the inevitable trend, it can't be changed.

I'm just accelerating it by a few years.

And we won't have to lose half the population.

Furthermore, the United Nations I established has the Celestial Dynasty as its capital.

It can ensure the Celestial Dynasty's eternal prosperity, minimizing casualties, do you think it's not good?”

Sun Wukong was speechless for a moment.

Both the death toll of 4 billion people and the Celestial Dynasty's eternal prosperity hit him hard.

Sun Wukong gritted his teeth, struggling for a long time before saying.

“But you can't use methods of mind control to achieve your goals.

You can be more gentle…”

Ge Heng Yu interrupted again.

“It's already very gentle.

I'm just making them follow the rules, they can still live their normal lives.

Other people are still doing their own things.

They might even live better and happier lives because of the clean and honest officials.

At the same time, technology can develop rapidly, allowing us to better respond to the alien invasion.

What do you say?”

“……”

Sun Wukong was completely unable to find any words to refute him.

Because after Ge Heng Yu's detailed analysis,

nothing was better than the current situation.

This made Du Kao anxious.

What was going on?

The trump card he brought in was about to defect?

That wouldn't do.

“Wukong, have you forgotten how Master Wu taught you?

Deceitful people's words can't be trusted.”

Being reminded by Du Kao, Sun Wukong's eyes lit up, and he stood up.

He drew his Ruyi Jingu Bang and thrust it into the ground, his body flashing with light.

He wore a phoenix-feathered purple gold crown, a golden chain mail armor, and black cloud-stepping shoes.

“Old Sun can't argue with you, but what you said makes me feel quite tempted.

But I can't forget my master's teachings.

We can only settle this with a showdown.

If you win, you do your thing, as long as you don't hurt heaven and harm the earth, I won't interfere.

If you lose, lift the control, and Old Sun won't hold it against you.”

Hearing this, Ge Heng Yu's brows twitched, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

He was truly angry this time.

But he wasn't angry at Sun Wukong.

He was angry at Du Kao, that bastard.

He was almost able to persuade Sun Wukong.

But Du Kao had to butt in, did he think Ge Heng Yu wouldn't get angry?

“Fine, I'll fight you.

But before that, I hope you'll listen to Du Kao's true thoughts.”

Ge Heng Yu narrowed his eyes, staring directly at Du Kao, making him feel uneasy.

“What are you trying to do, are you going to use force because you can't win with words?”

Du Kao forced himself to maintain his intimidating presence, glaring with anger.

Sun Wukong also looked over with a frown.

In response, Ge Heng Yu's lips moved slightly, uttering.

【Du Kao, tell me and Sun Wukong your real secret that you've buried deep in your heart.】

Hearing these words and thinking about the mind-control method.

Du Kao was immediately startled and wanted to step back to avoid it, but it was too late.

The spirit language swept over him, and he froze instantly.

Sun Wukong, for unknown reasons, didn't stop him.

Perhaps Sun Wukong was also curious.

What was the true secret buried deep in the heart of Du Kao, a Denosian?

The dazed Du Kao began to reveal his true thoughts.

“My real secret in my heart.

It's to sincerely assist the growth of the Galactic Force, help Earth survive the alien invasion.

Until the Galactic Force becomes the main god of the Celestial Dynasty, leading him to gradually merge the countries of Earth and move into space…”

Hearing this, Sun Wukong and Ge Heng Yu were both a little surprised.

It seemed like Du Kao was truly dedicated to Earth.

But just as they had this thought, the subsequent revelation of his inner thoughts made both of their faces turn black.

“After leading Earth civilization into space, becoming a space-faring civilization, and gradually moving towards the gene god era.

I will use the promotion of the god-creating civilization as an excuse to popularize the Galactic Force's secondary genes and obtain authority.

In this way, I can slowly control the Galactic Force, until I completely control and take over Earth civilization.

Then I can revive the Denosian civilization, directly become a god-creating civilization, and even a super-god civilization.

This is my true secret.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Du Kao regained his senses, his face instantly turning pale.

He knew he was done for.

He had actually revealed the real secret he had buried deep in his heart.

He had never told anyone this secret.

Not even his close confidants like A Jie, Lian Feng, and Yu Qin.

He had always advocated integration with Earth, in order to gain Earth's trust.

Or rather, before they grew up, he had to gain the trust of Sun Wukong, the guardian deity of Earth.

That way, when the Galactic Force grew up and was completely controlled.

Sun Wukong would be completely under his control.

After all, the potential of the Galactic Force was that of a Supreme God.

“Wukong, what I said just now was all controlled by Ge Heng Yu, it wasn't true.

Don't let him deceive you.”

With a last desperate effort, Du Kao looked at Sun Wukong.

He hoped that Sun Wukong would not believe what he had just said.

However, Sun Wukong saw that Du Kao's face turned pale and he trembled as he removed the spirit language, and judged that what he said was true.

Naturally, he wouldn't believe Du Kao's sophistry.

“Old Du, Old Du.

You're truly cunning, you can actually endure to this extent just to revive your civilization.

Old Sun couldn't see through your slightest flaw.

Even when I listened to your thoughts just now, I thought you were genuinely concerned for the Celestial Dynasty.

But it turns out you were just biding your time, waiting to seize the fruits of civilization at the last minute.

You're truly a schemer, Old Sun can't spare you now.”

Sun Wukong's eyes were full of anger, he raised his Ruyi Jingu Bang and slammed it down, intending to crush this alien traitor.

Seeing that struggling was useless, Du Kao could only close his eyes powerlessly, waiting for death to come.

Clang!
