News that Lin Fan was still alive hadn’t spread, but all the higher-ups of the Alliance Headquarters knew.
Everyone panicked.
They were filled with uneasiness.
Star Level Energy wasn’t able to wipe him out. How terrifying was he?
Wu Zhige’s death had been in vain.
Xiang Yuntian said anxiously, “Commander, what do we do now? He is on the way to the headquarters and he will arrive shortly.”
As the highest general of the tech division, he had a close relationship with the Alliance. If not, he wouldn’t have placed down his pride to apologize to the commander for the future of the Alliance.
Just now, Star Level Energy’s explosion made him really emotional. The fact that Lin Fan was killed by it could prove that Star Level Energy was the most terrifying thing.
But now his heart felt cold. It was totally cold and he didn’t have any ideas at all.
He knew that the Alliance had faced their most terrifying enemy in history.
If he couldn’t find a solution, then the seriousness of the outcome would definitely be the destruction of the Alliance.
They were on the brink of death.
They thought of many ideas, but they didn’t know which was workable.
Commander sat there dispirited, even his expression was one of loss.
He was now back to the position of commander and he was confident in leading the Alliance back to victory. He was even willing to sacrifice his strongest nine-star general, Wu Zhige, but who knew that this would happen?
“The Alliance has no more hope.” The commander was not willing to say that but he had no choice. This was the situation and he had no choice but to admit it.
Xiang Yuntian said reluctantly, “Even if we gather all the nine-star generals, we have no chance?”
“Eh, no chance at all. When he survived from the center of the Star Level Energy blast, it proved that no one in the Alliance is his match.” The commander said. “You developed it, so you should know its strength.”
Maybe Lin Fan had suffered heavy injuries, but it was the fact that he survived.
Xiang Yuntian frowned and kept silent.
“The only way to keep the Alliance alive is to ask him for peace.” The commander said slowly.
This was the best solution and also the worst idea now.
Asking for peace was humiliating.
He would definitely become a sinner in the history of Alliance.
But if he didn’t, then the Alliance would totally disappear. The key was that Hell Mountain and Ocean Emperor Island were staring aggressively. Seeing how weak the Alliance was now, they would definitely plan something. At that time, the Alliance would be in their worst situation.
Thus, if they succeeded in asking for peace, at least the Alliance would maintain their peak combat strength and be able to fight against Hell Mountain and Ocean Emperor Island.
“Ask for peace?”
Xiang Yuntian looked at the commander in astonishment.
He didn’t expect the commander to have such a thought. Was there no solution at all?
Commander said, “I know you are unhappy. You think that that is too humiliating but you should also think of the consequence. We have lost one of the strongest nine-star generals and we can’t lose more. Without any peak combat strength, the Alliance can be easily destroyed by others.”
“Even if we go all out and win in the end, someone else will just benefit.”
The moment he learned that Lin Fan was not dead, all thoughts of fighting him head-on disappeared. Instead, he was considering the Alliance’s future.
Maybe begging for peace was humiliating.
But he knew that as long as there was hope, they had a future.
Even if the Alliance had decades or hundreds of years of humiliation, only with humiliation could one have motivation. The people would work hard and one day the Alliance would become stronger. They would return all the humiliation back to them with interest.
Xiang Yuntian kept silent. He was really unwilling and regretted not making Star Level Energy stronger. If he worked harder, their situation would definitely be different.
“You are the commander and I trust your decision. No matter what the outcome is, I will bear it with you.” Xiang Yuntian said.
This was the most crucial step towards the Alliance’s future. Only by uniting could they get the Alliance through this tough time. That was the most important thing.
All sorts of interests weren’t important at this point.
“Okay, I will send someone to talk and negotiate with Lin Fan.” The commander said.
….
Villa.
Zhu Daoshen sat there for a long while. In the past when he had some time he would play with his granddaughter but his current situation was different from before.
“Grandfather, can you play the swing with me?”
Right as Zhu Daoshen was stunned, his granddaughter pulled his sleeves.
There were bloodstains on her lips.
To others, those scenes were really terrifying but for Zhu Daoshen, it wasn’t anything much.
Zhu Daoshen slowly turned his head and looked at his granddaughter with a smile.
But that smile seemed really weird.
“Good baby. Grandfather has no mood to play with you now. The Alliance faced some problems and one of my only friends has died. It is time for me to appear.”
“Grandfather wants to spend time with you. Even if outsiders don’t accept you, I won’t abandon you because you will forever be my baby. No matter what you become, that will never change.”
Zhu Daoshen hugged his granddaughter and touched her head.
Emotions flowed. He really wanted to return to the past before anything had happened.
Unfortunate.
He couldn’t return.
Her head rested on his shoulder and she sniffed, revealing a greedy expression. This was the scent of an expert, a smell of an expert she had never eaten before.
Right as the greedy expression appeared on her face, it turned to shock.
Zhu Daoshen’s movement was too fast.
“Grandfather, what are you doing? It hurts.”
Zhu Daoshen grabbed her neck and used more and more strength. Her expression became more and pained as the strength increased.
“Good girl, I know that it hurts and I also know that you aren’t the same person. But no matter what, you are my beloved child. Now that grandfather is heading out, I can’t let you live. I don’t want to see you without anyone taking care of you.”
Zhu Daoshen struggled.
He didn’t want to leave problems for the Alliance and also didn’t want his granddaughter to die in anyone else’s hands.
Suddenly, tentacles swept from her body and wanted to fight to the death against Zhu Daoshen. This damn old man was crazy and wanted to kill her.
Evil God, who was attached to her body, was about to go mad.
He didn’t expect the old man to actually attack.
Puchi!
All the tentacles were sliced.
Even if Evil God was attached it wasn’t of any use. The gap between him and Zhu Daoshen was too huge.
“Don’t blame grandfather.” Zhu Daoshen’s eyes turned red as he used more and more strength. The little girl found it harder and harder to breathe. She felt like she could die at any moment.
Damn.
It was hard to find such a perfect body, so how could she die just like that?
There were even more corpses of experts that she could feed on.
How did such a thing happen?
Lin Fan, you better wait up. You spoiled such a good thing, this vengeance must be solved in the end.
If Lin Fan found out about this, he would definitely rage.
What did this have to do with him?
Who are you…
It became harder and harder to breathe.
“Grandfather, I don’t want to die. I want to live. You said that you would protect me.”
A teardrop fell onto Zhu Daoshen’s hand.
Zhu Daoshen felt coldness on the back of his arms. The arm that strangled his granddaughter shook.
His face was filled with hesitation.
He was pained.
At the same time, his breathing became more and more rushed.
It was like he would let go at any moment.
“Grandfather…”
Zhu Daoshen shook his head, “No, grandfather cannot cause problems for the Alliance. Granddaughter, just go. Grandfather will join u soon.”
A deep voice resounded.
“No…”
Zhu Daoshen’s power destroyed the evil being in his granddaughter’s body.
The originally perfect granddaughter’s body started to decompose and give out the smell of a rotting body. Half the flesh and blood on her face started to disappear at a visible rate.
At that moment, his body was drenched in sweat. He slowly hugged the decomposing granddaughter in his arms.
Zhu Daoshen couldn’t suppress the pain in his heart and started to tear.
He didn’t blame anyone else.
This was life.
He hadn’t even blamed Lin Fan before.
Since Alliance had reached such a stage, as one of the strongest nine-star generals, his hands were covered in blood. Due to his position, he had to do this.
After a long while, Zhu Daoshen carried his granddaughter’s corpse into the courtyard and buried her beneath a tree. This tree was also planted together when she was one year old.
He touched the tree and turned around to look at the cold villa before disappearing.
Evil God returned to the statue.
He could only curse.
Damn!
Lin Fan headed towards the Alliance Headquarters. He was really angered by them.
They actually went all out.
They used Star Level Energy to blow him up, that was just too arrogant.
Fortunately, he was lucky.
He was also really strong and was able to handle it.
If he was weaker, they might have really suceeded.
What a waste…
Father wanted to personally kill Wu Zhige but those dreams were gone.
But it was okay.
At that moment, someone walked over from the distance.
Lin Fan smiled. The Alliance Headquarters had a really big heart. It was already such a time and they dared to send some small fries over. Were they still insulting him?
“Sect Leader Lin, I am the Alliance Headquarters envoy.” The person said hurriedly before he arrived.
He was afraid that he was too late and would get killed before he said a single word.
It wasn’t like such a thing hadn’t happened before.
When he learned that he had to head over, he panicked.
He was really afraid.
He had even prepared his will before he came.
He felt that he would definitely die this time and if he was not careful, Lin Fan would definitely beat him up.
“Alliance envoy?” Lin Fan smiled, “No one will kill the envoy when we are at war. I know that. Speak, what do you want?”
