“...Even so.” Tokisaki Kurumi clenched her fist, the gentle expression on her face vanishing. “Because if we don’t try, it definitely won’t succeed.”
Kurumi Tokisaki looked very serious. "If my intervention will become a part of history... then I will intervene again and change things again."
"I see." Ilya opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately slumped back into the chair, exhausted. What could she possibly say to Kurumi Tokisaki, who had made such a decision?
"But speaking of which..." Tokisaki Kurumi quickly came to her senses. She looked at Number 10 with a strange expression, paying particular attention to the eerie starry sky behind Number 10. "The feeling this gentleman gives me is quite different from the other members."
"A remarkable intuition." Kaguya Houraisan nodded slightly. She was genuinely surprised, since Gintoki Sakata hadn't explained Number Ten's true identity to her before.
"Miss Tokisaki, I suggest you don't ignore what Mr. Ten said. Because He might truly know the future of your world... a future even more profound than the plot of the stars!" Aizen casually offered this suggestion.
Kurumi Tokisaki's pupils suddenly contracted, and a huge wave of emotions surged within her.
She subconsciously looked in Su Han's direction, then looked at Number Ten, comparing them repeatedly, and finally realized... that both of them had that similar feeling of being unable to look directly at each other, and that looking at them for too long would give her a headache.
However, although the sense of being unable to look directly at Number Ten was slightly less... the eerie feeling emanating from Number Ten was much stronger than that of the Council Speaker.
In terms of strength, Number Ten should be weaker than the Speaker of the Council? And compared to the Speaker, he might be more inclined towards the evil faction?
Thoughts flashed through her mind. Tokisaki Kurumi sat up straight, staring intently at Number Ten, and asked cautiously, "Mr. Number Ten... how can I save my world? Or rather, what is the truth behind my ultimate salvation of the world? And where is the mastermind behind the Spirits?"
"Please! Even if it has to be based on the principle of equivalent exchange... I'm willing to give you everything as long as it lets me save my world."
Although she sensed that Number Ten might be leaning towards the evil, Kurumi Tokisaki didn't care. What did it matter if she sacrificed herself to save the world?
Number 10 seemed to glance at Kurumi Tokisaki, his voice as always, "It's meaningless for you to know this now. The progenitor spirit, Mio Takamiya, possesses combat power that surpasses all other spirits."
Even if I told you the truth, going to kill them would only be suicide. What you should do right now is become stronger... When you become strong enough, you will find that all problems will no longer be problems.
"Number Ten is right." Fan Xian nodded in deep agreement.
"...Is that so?" Tokisaki Kurumi gave Number Ten a deep look. She had originally thought that Number Ten might be something like a demon or a devil.
But now it seems she was wrong. After all, demons and devils wouldn't give such valuable advice, nor would they care whether she would die in the end... Perhaps they would hide the truth and exploit her relentlessly?
Biting her lower lip, Kurumi Tokisaki bowed slightly and said, "Thank you."
"By the way," Number Ten didn't answer Kurumi Tokisaki. Under Su Han's control, he looked at Luo Cuilian. "Luo Cuilian, how's your world doing lately?"
"Thanks to Mr. Number Four, things have been very good. After strengthening my cultivation through the power of the evil god, I went to Sardinia and killed the two disobedient gods who originally appeared in history."
Luo Cuilian remembered something and added, "Since I rarely get to come out, I took the opportunity to take down the current god-killers in the world... Apart from that guy Voban who is currently in seclusion recuperating from his injuries, all the other god-killers were defeated by me with an absolute advantage."
"Absolute advantage, crushing them?" Kaguya Houraisan's gaze sharpened. "I seem to remember that the rule in the world of Godslayer is... the strong possess everything, right?"
"Yes! So, in name only, all the magic societies in the world have submitted to the Five Prisons Holy Church." Luo Cuilian replied nonchalantly; she truly didn't care.
Luo Cuilian was not someone with an extremely strong desire for power, as can be seen from the fact that she spent many years in seclusion deep in the Lushan Mountains.
Therefore, this might be an immense blessing for the Five Prisons Holy Sect, but for her, it's not as important as having another divine authority.
"Ruling the world," Emperor Qing said with deep emotion, his gaze becoming profound. "On my side, it's almost over...it'll be soon. With my current strength, if I wanted to...I could easily kill all those so-called Grandmasters in the world. The Great Qing army is strong enough..."
"Once we digest the information we obtained from Mr. Stark and complete industrialization, we can conquer the world. Nothing can stop us, not even the temple... Daqing will eventually become the only and strongest empire in the world."

Chapter 420 The Ancient One's Warning? Tony Stark's Invitation (First Update)
There is indeed a world of difference between countries that have completed industrialization and those that have not. Tony Stark nodded in deep agreement.
Given the same population size and political structure, it's like child's play for an industrialized country to beat an unindustrialized one.
Don't even mention that Emperor Qing's strength is invincible. Even if the Great Qing didn't have a single cultivator... as long as the Great Qing completes its industrialization, it would still completely crush those countries that haven't completed industrialization but have Grandmasters.
Bruce Wayne remained silent, his eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light as he scrutinized Emperor Qing.
“Industrialization… I wonder when the internet will ever appear.” Fan Xian sighed, slumped in his chair, looking as listless as a salted fish. “In ancient times, there were no movies to watch, no games to play… I was going crazy with boredom.”
"Aren't you in the world of the Holy Grail?" Kaguya Houraisan stared at Fan Xian with a strange look.
“But I went back.” Fan Xian looked dejected. “I regret it. I shouldn’t have listened to Emperor Qing and gone back… saying that the Crown Prince of the Empire couldn’t disappear for long. Why did I care so much? I was never cut out to be the Crown Prince.”
Emperor Qing stared at Fan Xian expressionlessly. He suddenly began to wonder if he had made a mistake by appointing this unreliable fellow as Crown Prince.
Sakata Gintoki's eyelids twitched a few times as he stared intently at Fan Xian, and he retorted, "You...you're really too ungrateful for your good fortune, aren't you?"
"That's the Crown Prince! And a Crown Prince who is trusted by a powerful emperor like Emperor Qing."
"What does this mean? It means being second only to the emperor, above tens of thousands of others."
"Give me a break." Fan Xian looked at Sakata Gintoki speechlessly. "Your world has movie theaters, Jump manga magazines, and many modern entertainment products... You are rich in spiritual wealth! What are you talking about?"
The other people in the council from ancient society are qualified to speak about Fan Xian, but those from modern society, or people like Sakata Gintoki, are not.
"I!" Sakata Gintoki choked, finding himself unable to refute.
"Oh, right." The Ancient One suddenly remembered something and looked at Tony Stark, "Wait a minute, you can withdraw from the main battlefront. You're on leave for now!"
Tony Stark's body stiffened, and a look of astonishment and disbelief appeared on his face.
"A holiday? Hmm... why does it feel so strange, like a teacher and student?" Sawada Tsunayoshi muttered to himself. He didn't know what kind of expression he should make.
In the end, Sawada Tsunayoshi could only sigh. Only a top-tier powerhouse like the Ancient One could possibly control Tony Stark, right?
