Chapter 290: The Weak Vs The Strong Part One


    Heavenly Tower


    Mei walked into the entrance of the Heavenly tower which was a tower built to reach the heavens. The peak of the tower was as high as thergest mountain in the Mortal ne. The Tower was made to be a neutral zone for all factions and ns. It was watched over by one of the very few ascended soul realm cultivators in the Mortal ne.


    The whole tower was built out of white jade. Mei was actually surprised to see such a structure. To be able to carve out an entire tower out of jade that stood as tall as a mountain was a feat in itself. She was not sure if this tower was all one piece or if it was serval pieces joined together.


    There was a hole in the ceiling to allow people to fly up to the top of the tower. There was also a spiral staircase for those who could not fly. Tang Guanting took Mei and Grandpa Mu to the top of the tower were many old men with white beards of varying sizes all sat around arge table. There were three seats at the head of the table, they were reserved for Mei, Grandpa Mu, and Tang Guanting.


    Tang Guanting walked over and pulled out the main seat and ushered Mei to take a seat. His actions causing the faces of the old men at the table to turn ck. They did not know where this little girl came from but to be sitting in the main seat that was slightly higher than them was not eptable.


    "Tang Guanting what is the meaning of this!? Why is a little girl with the lowest cultivation here sitting in the main seat?" The leader of the Ling n asked.


    Tang Guanting said nothing and only whispered into Mei''s ear. "Show of strength if you would. Use yourbined powers to show them how strong you are."


    It was true that Mei was only in the shattering core realm but if youbined her celestial powers with her cultivation she was around the same strength as a demi god which was equivalent to what Grandpa Mu''s strength was if not a bit stronger.


    Mei nodded her head and released herbined celestial and cultivation auras. The pressure she gave off mmed into the old men who were sitting down, shattering the very seats they were sitting in and pushing them down on to the floor. The leader of the Ling n realized he had misjudged the girl in front of him and lifted a rock only to drop it on his foot. Tang Guanting who was still standing behind Mei, smiled as he looked over the cultivators in the room. "I would like to say that she may seem like a weak little girl but if she really wanted to, not a single person would even know how they died. She is part of my Tang n and also part of celestial Mu''s family I think you know what this means. She is also our only hope of surviving any attack the Machine Empire throws at us.


    "Do not be mistaken, although Young Miss Mei is young, she has also led many armies to victory. So her knowledge of war is more in depth than our own. With knowledge and the power is she not meant to sit on this seat for this meeting?"


    Tang Guanting tapped Mei''s shoulder to have her release the pressure which she did. The old men who were pressed against the floor all slowly stood up feeling embarrassed. Tang Guanting had expected this to happen to he had already prepared a second set of chairs. With everyone sitting once again. Wiping the sweat from his forehead the leader of the Ling n bowed his head to Mei and said: "I apologize to senior for my words earlier."


    "It''s fine..." Mei really did not care since she knew he had a right to be upset when it came to her age and cultivation. How was he supposed to know that she had more than one kind of power she was cultivating. "I do apologize, I myself did not know such a meeting was happening until a little while ago when Uncle Guanting asked me to join."


    "No problem, No problem."The leader of the Ling n said with a forced smile. "Then Young Miss Mei, How do you suggest we fight the enemy when the timeses and do you think the enemy wille at all? "


    "From what I know right now they will be here within the next year to two years. This means we will need to work together and try to form arge enough army to push them back. If what my father has told me is correct the numbers we are looking at will be in the millions and they are all as powerful as an early stage immortal. Which means just a single one of them can take out most of you. Uncle Guanting had brought the Tang n and its allies to this realm to help fight off the Machine Empire. Although we are weaker in fighting prowess that does not mean we will outright lose either. Tactics are needed in a war when the enemy is stronger. Fighting them head on will be akin to serving your heads up on a silver tter." Mei said seriously.


    "Then what do you suggest we do?" The Flying Pheonix Sect leader asked.


    "We will use military tactics and gueri warfare to suppress and beat our foes. Where I originally came from there was a war between two countries. One country was overpowering in military might but when they tried to fight the weaker country they found that they did not have the home turf advantage. The weaker country was able to use gueri warfare and the terrain of their homnd to their advantage allowing them to fight on even grounds against a stronger foe. Knowledge is key..."
