Chapter 1257: It's Not a Lie



The reason the forces of the Milky Way wanted to ally with the Zenth Dojo was because the Zenith Dojo was rapidly growing stronger. It had once been nothing more than a dojo on a single planet in the Milky Way, but was now the strongest force in the second realm—and it wouldn\'t be far-fetched to call it the ruler of it all, either, considering it possessed an entire kingdom.

Upon ascending to the third realm, the members of the Zenith Dojo started out with uncommon combat power, especially after the unification of the worlds of the third realm. No disciple of the Zenith Dojo had fled; they trusted in Zhang Lie\'s success, and the blessing of the realm had made them two or three levels stronger than their counterparts.

Furthermore, the Zenith Dojo was backed by ridiculous existences like Zhang Lie and the members of Team Zenith. As long as they stayed in the third realm, the Zenith Dojo would have nothing to fear from anyone.

The forces of the Milky Way weren\'t foolish. Knowing that the Zenith Dojo was a group with infinite potential, they did their best to try to ally with them.

Zhang Lie\'s value would only keep rising. In the second realm, he had constructed a kingdom; in the third realm, he had unified a realm; and he had even made such shocking discoveries as limit-breaking potions and disaster-grade lifeforms. No one knew just what Zhang Lie would be capable of in the future.

Working with the Zenith Dojo was akin to working with Zhang Lie. In the future, if there were any more discoveries, they would surely learn about the matter before anyone else.

"It was that simple?"

"The other forces already wanted to ally with us, but their relationships with each other can be complicated. Allying with us could mean working together with their enemies—so I simply came up with a strategy that would give all the forces of the Milky Way an excuse for cooperation."

"What excuse?"

"That all the alien kingdoms, along with three superior kings and the ruler of the realm, would be working together with each other."

Zhu frowned. "I\'m on Zhang Lie\'s side! I\'m his companion!"

Yun Bing nodded. "We know that, but the forces of the Milky Way don\'t."

Zhang Lie scrutinized her thoughtfully. "I understand. You\'re telling the forces of the Milky Way that there\'s a coalition of forces arranged against them, that they would have to band together in order to survive against such disadvantageous odds, especially when I and the members of Team Zenith can\'t remain in the third realm forever."

Yun Bing smiled slyly. "That\'s exactly right. You and the members of Team Zenith won\'t be able to stay here for good—but even if you leave, the foundations that you\'ve established, along with the members of the Zenith Dojo, will still be around. The superior kings would be wary of the Zenith Dojo\'s strength and have developed a close relationship with you, so it would be safe no matter what."

Sun Mengmeng came to the same realization. "But that doesn\'t apply to the forces of the Milky Way, does it?"

Yun Bing nodded. "After all, the Milky Way hunters are much like invaders, whereas the three other kingdoms are formed of indigenous races. It would only be natural for them to ostracize the hunters."

Zhang Lie continued, "That means the hunters of the Milky Way will naturally feel outnumbered and isolated."

"I\'m not lying, after all." Yun Bing smiled. "The three kingdoms were originally three superior worlds, who had allied together against the superior worlds of antiquity and banded together in an attempt to resolve the crisis of the third realm. Meanwhile, the hunters had almost uniformly fled back to the Milky Way."

Sun Mengmeng gave Yun Bing a thumbs up.

Sun Xiaowu marveled. "Amazing. Yun Bing, it felt like you were telling the truth the entire time—but it might as well be a lie!"

Yun Bing asked, "But have I lied?"

Yang Ze exclaimed, "That\'s why it\'s so impressive! All you\'re saying is the truth, but what you leave implicit is nudging people toward notions that are most favorable to you. It\'s a waste of your talents not to become a lawyer."

Such was the crux to becoming a good lawyer—to reveal a fraction of the truth and lead judge and jury toward the preconceptions most advantageous for them.

Zhang Lie asked, "So you managed to get all the forces of the Milky way to work together using these tricks and misdirection?"

Yun Bing shrugged. "How am I tricking them? They joined this coalition voluntarily."

Zhang Lie smirked.

"It\'s true that the three superior kingdoms have worked together in the past, and they did form an alliance. This is factual, verifiable truth."

On the other hand, the Milky Way hunters were clearly at a disadvantage in terms of unity.

Zhang Lie praised her. "You really are sly, to take advantage of their lack of knowledge."

Yun Bing smiled. "Of course, as an ally of the three superior kingdoms, the Zenith Dojo played an important role—perhaps the most important role—during the crisis of the third realm, and you were the one who unified the world. Even if they aren\'t willing to show you any respect, the contributions of the Zenith Dojo alone will leave the three kingdoms and the alien races within them unwilling to ostracize us."

Zhang Lie summarized, "So you\'ve manufactured a common enemy out of thin air."

"I just told the others that, if the Milky Way hunters want to get a greater say in the governance of the third realm, that they would have to learn to work together as allies rather than enemies."

Yun Bing truly had a talent for diplomacy.

The alliance between the forces of the Milky Way and the Zenith Dojo would undoubtedly be beneficial for the former. Not only would they be able to develop a relationship with Zhang Lie, they would be shielded from any hostility from the alien races, and Zhang Lie and the members of Team Zenith would protect them. There were uncountable advantages.

Meanwhile, the Zenith Dojo would be able to obtain a vast source of manpower and connections throughout the Milky Way.

It was a win-win situation.

Zhang Lie asked, "Can you guarantee that the Zenith Dojo will have an important voice in the coalition?"

Sun Mengmeng murmured, "If the Zenith Dojo were to end up getting swallowed up..."

Yun Bing replied, "With all of you around, anyone who attempts to usurp power must be mad. Even without my doing anything, the other forces of the Milky Way would deal with them to claim your favor."

"But we won\'t be able to remain in the third realm forever," Zhang Lie warned.
