Chapter 738 The Clash Between Reality and Dreams!

With a helpless cough, Old Zhang looked around at everyone present and asked, "Does anyone have any other opinions?"

"If you have any suggestions, please let us know, and we can discuss it further."

"To be honest, Su Chen and his team have made tremendous contributions, and there's no need to antagonize them unless absolutely necessary."

This statement proves that Old Zhang has already given in.

He was actually giving a hint to Mr. Li.

If Old Li were to step forward and say a few words at this point, Old Zhang might take the opportunity to back down and ease the tension.

But Old Li is very angry now, and he plans to ignore everything.

He wanted to see how far things would escalate and who would ultimately suffer the consequences.

Are they truly capable of putting up a fight against Su Chen?
As for the other group, they didn't say anything. Although they understood what Old Zhang meant, some of them just wanted to see Old Zhang make a fool of himself.

Some people were very unhappy with Su Chen and his group and had long wanted to find an opportunity to teach them a lesson.

Now that the opportunity has come, how could we possibly give it up?

Under such circumstances, Mr. Zhang had no choice but to proceed with the next step of the plan according to the previous proposal.

"Since no one has any objections, let's discuss who should be sent to Earth 2 and how many people should be sent."

Upon hearing that they were going to Earth 2, everyone lowered their heads; not a single person was willing.

They knew very well that Earth 2 was not a place where people could come and go as they pleased.

That place is a den of dragons and tigers.

Especially now that the situation is tense, going there would be tantamount to suicide.

Several people had visited Su Chen's base, but none of them ever returned.

They said they were staying there to work, but even if they were staying there to work, it's impossible that they wouldn't see anyone.

But I haven't seen those people since. I don't know if they were too busy to contact their relatives and friends, or if they simply disappeared.

In truth, everyone knew in their hearts that those people had simply disappeared.

So when Old Zhang made this suggestion, no one was willing to go.

But they didn't want to give up either.

One of the experts said, "We are all experts, it's not appropriate for us to go to do this. You should find a general, someone who is suitable to go to Earth 2 to negotiate with them."

Old Zhang nodded and then looked at the generals present.

The generals had grim faces, and almost no one spoke.

When Elder Zhang made the suggestion, several generals stood up to object, while the others remained silent.

The generals present had a very good impression of Su Chen because many of his research and designs were related to the military.

They were provided with strong firepower support, giving them many weapons to protect themselves.

They treated Su Chen as one of their own, and very few people disliked him, let alone were jealous of him.

However, they also knew that Su Chen's influence was growing, so they remained silent on the matter.

But they would never go to Earth 2.

Because they know better than these experts how dangerous Earth 2 is.

Old Zhang's face grew increasingly grim.

Several suggestions went unanswered, as if no one wanted to do it.

But when asked, the group readily agreed.

He gently patted the table and said seriously, "If no one is willing, then I will have to assign someone."

"When the time comes, you can be assigned to someone, so don't refuse again."

Still, no one spoke.

Old Zhang looked at Old Li beside him and said, "Old Li, who do you think would be suitable to go?"

Old Li coughed and said with a smile, "Anyway, I'm not going. You can let whoever you want go."

Old Zhang frowned, about to speak, when an elderly man in his sixties, not far away, suddenly smiled and said, "I think it's most suitable for Old Li to go."

“Old Li is familiar with them, so even if a conflict arises, they won’t lock him up or harm him.”

"Besides, we're not going to fight a war this time, but to have a good talk with them. Old Li is the most suitable candidate."

As soon as he said that, everyone else echoed his sentiments and recommended that Old Li go.

Old Li absolutely refused.

But under Elder Zhang's orders, he had no other choice.

In the end, it was Old Li who led the team, and many people felt relieved.

Mr. Zhang then raised another question.

How many people should we send this time, and what kind of people should we send?
Should we send experts or soldiers?
How many people are needed?

Most people suggested sending soldiers and experts along, and that the number should be large, otherwise it would not be enough to deter Su Chen.

After some discussion, they decided to send ten interstellar warships to Earth 2.

Each starship was basically at full capacity.

A single interstellar warship can hold three thousand people.

After everything was prepared, Mr. Li and his group set off.

Before setting off, Mr. Zhang specially invited Mr. Li to his room and had a serious chat with him.

His original intention was still not to have a major conflict with Su Chen and his group, and he hoped that Old Li could achieve a good result in this negotiation.

With a hint of helplessness on his face, Old Li suddenly asked a question.

"What if these negotiations fail, and they don't let me in? What measures should we take?"

Old Zhang said with a wry smile, "We'll see when the time comes. I believe they'll give you that face."

Old Li didn't say anything.

He believed that Su Chen and the others would never give him that kind of face.

Based on his understanding of Su Chen and the others.

If you treat them well, they will treat you well in return.

If you treat them badly, they will never back down.

In critical moments, they will not compromise for their own sake.

As the interstellar warship was about to approach Earth 2, Old Li first notified Tang Yumo.

Upon learning of this, Tang Yumo and others immediately convened a meeting.

The first thing everyone wanted to do was to inform Su Chen about the matter.

Tang Yumo overruled everyone's objections, saying it wasn't necessary and that it was a trivial matter.

The crowd was speechless, and some were even annoyed.

Old Li has come, and with ten interstellar warships at that. How could this be a small matter?
Zhou Quanmiao frowned and said, "Wang Jianfeng isn't here. This matter is too big. We can't keep it from Su Chen."

Tang Yumo slammed her hand on the table, glaring with her beautiful eyes, and said, "What's so great about it? You have to bother others with such a small matter. You've all become useless."

The word "waste" silenced Zhou Quan and the others.

Tang Yumo thought for a moment and immediately gave the order.

"I am now in command of the entire base. Just follow my orders. No one, whether it's Elder Li or anyone else, is allowed to enter Earth 2."

"If someone violates the rules, they can be removed, and if three warnings are ignored, physical action can be taken."

Upon hearing this, the group of people frowned in unison.

This decision is incredibly bold.

They opened their mouths to try and persuade Tang Yumo, but Tang Yumo didn't give them any chance. She waved her hand lightly, looking impatient. "There's no need to say anything, just listen to me."

Seeing that he was determined to do so, Zhou Quanmiao and the others said nothing more and expressed their full support for him.

Soon, the interstellar team led by Elder Li arrived near Earth 2 and immediately reported the situation to Tang Yumo and the others, hoping they could enter.

However, the response received was a warning.

Old Li's face turned grim upon hearing the harsh warning.

He knew this job would be very difficult, but he didn't expect the people on Earth 2 to be so uncooperative.

I've helped them so much, why are you speaking so arrogantly?
He asked the people in the liaison office to call Su Chen over, as he wanted to talk to Su Chen in person.

The liaison office staff told Mr. Li that Su Chen had been busy with research lately, and Tang Yumo was managing everything at the base.

The last person to arrive was Tang Yumo.

Tang Yumo smiled slightly when she saw Old Li and greeted him warmly.

Before Old Li could question him, he spoke first.

"Mr. Li, I know why you came here this time."

"However, the base has already downloaded the latest orders, and no one is allowed to enter Earth 2."

"Because we are conducting a very dangerous experiment, in addition to maintaining secrecy, we also need to protect your safety. We hope you can understand."

Staring at the young girl speaking so eloquently, Old Li shook his head helplessly. "What do you plan to do if I insist on going in?"

Tang Yumo shook her head and said with a grin, "Didn't we already warn you? We'll definitely follow the rules of Earth 2."

“Even if you have a good relationship with us, we can’t ruin that relationship just because of you. You certainly wouldn’t do that, right?”

Old Li sighed.

“I don’t want to do this, but others might not. Wait here for my news, and I’ll report to my superiors.”

Old Li reported the matter to his superiors.

A small meeting was held, and they ultimately decided to hold back and maintain a stalemate with the people from Earth 2 for a while to see if they would change their minds.

One month later.

Old Li and his team were running low on supplies and needed to either enter Earth 2 or return.

Otherwise, they would starve to death in the vast universe.

Now we have to decide whether to force our way into Earth 2 or return to Earth.

Things have escalated to this point, and Old Zhang has no other options.

The only option was to order a forced entry into Earth 2.

He couldn't just let Old Li return to Earth like that.

This was something he absolutely could not tolerate.

After learning of the order, Old Li contacted Tang Yumo again and told her about the situation.

Tang Yumo's face also turned ugly.

Old Li said helplessly, "Let's call Su Chen over and discuss this with him. We can't really start fighting, can we?"

Tang Yumo raised an eyebrow and said, "You were the ones who were being unreasonable first, so why should we back down?"

Old Li remained silent.

Tang Yumo left the liaison room and immediately called Zhou Quanmiao and the others over to tell them the situation.

Zhou Quanmiao and the others suggested going to find Su Chen again.

This time, Tang Yumo did not object.

Things had already turned out this way, and he dared not do anything more.

The next step would really be war, and he didn't dare to take on that responsibility or make that decision.

Su Chen calmly entered the conference room and, seeing everyone so tense, inquired about the current situation.

I heard that Elder Li has brought ten interstellar warships to the vicinity of Earth 2 and is preparing to forcibly enter.

Su Chen glanced at Tang Yumo and said reproachfully, "I asked you to handle the Earth 2 matter, and you handled it like this?"

Tang Yumo said with a wronged expression, "Didn't you say you wanted me to handle it entirely? So I handled it the way I wanted."

"Besides, it's not my fault; they were just too arrogant."

"My instruction is to not let them in. If they dare to come in, beat them all up."

Su Chen asked, "You also want to beat up Elder Li and leave him in the universe forever? A starship has at least several thousand masters and disciples, so a starship has tens of thousands of people. Do you mean to make all tens of thousands of people disappear?"

Tang Yumo pursed her lips and remained silent.

He didn't care about casualties.

If he could, he could easily issue that order.

Su Chen shook his head and said thoughtfully, "Go and tell Elder Li that he can enter Earth 2, but everyone else should return to Earth."

After he gave the order, no one present made a move.

Because Su Chen did not specify who should inform them.

Tang Yumo was unwilling to go and pretended not to have heard anything.

It's even less likely that Zhou Quanmiao and a few others would take on this responsibility.

"Who should we send?" Professor Wang asked cautiously, hoping to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Su Chen looked at Tang Yumo and said, "Go ahead."

Tang Yumo shook her head decisively.

"I'm not going to do something so embarrassing."

Su Chen glared at him, then looked at Yuan Jingna, who had remained silent.

"Go ahead."

Yuan Jingna nodded.

The moment he appeared in Mr. Li's video, Mr. Li's expression softened, and he even had a slight smile on his face.

"Have you changed your mind?"

Yuan Jingna hummed in agreement, then frowned and said, "Su Chen said that you can enter Earth 2, but it's unnecessary for others."

Old Li coughed and said with a smile, "I need to ask my superiors for their approval now, to see if they agree."

Yuan Jingna paused for a moment, then shook her head helplessly.

"This is the biggest concession we've made. If they still don't agree, then I don't think there's any need to say anything more."

"We hope you can help us more."

Old Li told Old Zhang about the situation.

After discussing it further, Mr. Zhang and the others finally agreed to the proposal.

The other interstellar warships returned to Earth, while only one interstellar warship entered Earth 2.

Although it was only one ship, the number of people on board was enormous.

The people on the interstellar warship originally wanted to come out and visit Earth 2, but they were refused.

People inside the interstellar warship were not allowed to enter or leave freely, and the entire warship was surrounded by Su Chen's men, creating a very tense atmosphere.

The moment Mr. Li and Su Chen met, they shared a warm hug.

Although the atmosphere is tense now, it does not affect the relationship between the two of them.
