章 1063: War Preparations

Qian Heng sat on a throne with only Lightning Fist and Snake Saber beside him. He felt humiliated but, more importantly, worried about the future of his world. Thinking that they might suffer the same fate they have only recently eliminated filled him with anxiety.

"What should we do?" asked Lightning Fist. Qian Heng groaned, "We must summon everybody and prepare for war."

"Should we embellish the truth a little?" asked Snake Saber. "After all, she easily embarrassed us; looking too weak may not be good."

The room was quiet, and the silence spoke many words. However, after a few seconds, Qian Heng shook his head. "As tempting as that is, we don't want our people to underestimate our enemies. On the contrary, we should probably make things worse; instill fear to ensure they band together to face this upcoming threat."

"But too much fear might have an adverse effect," countered Lightning Fist.
