Chapter 391 - A Cruel Plan

Chapter 391 A Cruel Plan

Just when Xiao Bing and Red Rose shouldered their way out of the crowd, they found two men running toward them. Red Rose asked, “Why are you guys in such a hurry?”

“Second Patriarch, Lord Bai Jun and King Mamba asked for your presence in the hall, saying that they have something important to discuss. We have to notify the other patriarchs now.”

“Okay.” Red Rose looked back at Xiao Bing and said, “Let me walk you home.”

“That’s not necessary. I remember the way back and it’s not far.” Xiao Bing said smilingly.

“You must be careful then. Don’t walk around. The folks here are not very… kind to outsiders.”

“I know.” Xiao Bing shot a glance at the crowd and found the hostility obvious in their eyes. He managed a wry smile and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t go anywhere else. Besides, I belong to you now. I suppose no one will dare to harm me.”

Red Rose bobbed her head and looked at the two guys, “You should inform the other patriarchs now.”

“We will leave you then.”

The two cast a look at Xiao Bing and left hastily.

Red Rose said, “Xiao Jun, wait for me at home. I have something to talk to you about.”

“I will!”

Xiao Bing promised her, with a smile.

Xiao Bing waved at the woman and turned around, walking towards the direction of home. But soon Red Rose began running after him. The moment Xiao Bing turned around, she rushed into his arms. Xiao Bing was stunned, as he put his hands around her waist. The bystanders were all shocked. They had never seen the most beautiful woman of the serpent clan, being so intimate with a man, so publicly.

Xiao Bing felt there was something different about Red Rose today. “What’s wrong?” he asked. .

Red Rose whispered in his arms, “You asked if I want to break out from this cage… Now I want to tell you that I’m fighting for the fate of my clan. After the ceremony is over, no matter how it will end, I want to go with you to see the colorful world out there. Will you take me with you?”

Smiling, Xiao Bing stroked her head. “I will.” He said in a soft voice.

Red Rose grinned, “You must be wondering why I suddenly want to leave. I’ll tell you the reason after the meeting…”

Xiao Bing asked, “Do you truly mean it? You really want to leave this place with me?”

“I never take back my words. Now go back.”

Xiao Bing nodded and exchanged a look with Red Rose. Then they parted. But when Xiao Bing had walked for some distance, he whirled around and trailed behind Red Rose, secretly.

Red Rose arrived at the Patriarchs’ Hall. It was a big and temple-like cabin. There was a desk inside and there were two chairs on both sides. There was also a chair in the center of the cabin. King Mamba was sitting on it and Bai Jun was sitting on the first chair on the left. Red Rose nodded at them after she walked in. Then she sat opposite Bai Jun, without looking at him.

Soon after, the rest of the patriarchs arrived, the Third Presbyter, Snake Ba, the Fourth Patriarch, Chi Lian and the Fifth Patriarch, Yu Ban. The five most powerful people were gathered here. Xiao Bing walked quietly to the rear of the cabin and sneaked in through a window. Then he hid behind the door to the meeting room, peeking through the gap.

Two of them were at the early stage of Void-breaking, two Gang-strength stage and two Dan-strength stage, which made up the five powerful masters of Innate Realm. These people could easily unleash a storm in the outside world. But Xiao Bing knew that Red Rose was not interested in it. He could feel it.

Xiao Bing’s purpose was to hear what they were about to plan. He surmised that he might even obtain some information about the ceremony, which might help him to interrupt the ceremony.

Feng XIII looked at the five patriarchs and said in a serious voice, “You all are the pillars of this land. Now I have something to discuss with you. It must only be known among us, before it is carried out. Can you give me your word for it?”

Snake Ba asked, “King Mamba, just tell us what it is. We know the importance.”

Feng XIII said, “You all need to promise first. It’s very important because it concerns the ceremony.”

Except for Bai Jun, the other four patriarchs exchanged a glance and then all nodded.

“Alright. I have just told Bai Jun about this. He has agreed to it. We have to choose 64 of our best men and offer them to our god.”

All the other four patriarchs looked stunned, except for Bai Jun, who knew it before.

Xiao Bing was also stunned into disbelief, as he heard it from behind the door. They were even planning to sacrifice their own kind. “What kind of monsters are they!”

Red Rose blazed, “Why? Are the tonics not enough? King Mamba, I heard that you have captured a human who has God’s Blood. It is not enough if we use him as a tonic?”

“This is madness. If you cannot convince us, we will not agree to this.” They did not like this plan. After all, he was asking for the sacrifice of their own kind. Though they were all as cruel as snakes, they could not accept the killing their own kind.

Feng XIII sighed and said, “I don’t want this either. But I have been thinking about the reasons for our failures. We have done the ceremony so many times, but none of them succeeded. We have sent out men to the outside world to acquire their martial arts and join the Buddhism to find out if there are humans who are the descendants of god. We have been preparing for this day. Not only did we capture human masters as our tonics, we also seized a man with God’s Blood. If we fail this time, we might never succeed. Everything must be perfect this time.”

“I have been contemplating the reasons for our former failures, and I believe that many powerful masters of our serpent clan must be offered, so that the power of our god and the human god will bring him back to life!”

Feng XIII said with a stern face, “If we fail this time, we might never get an opportunity like this anymore. So everything must be perfect this time!”

Red Rose said hotly, “But we can’t risk the lives of our people!”

Red Rose found Bai Jun as calm as a mirror, when she said it. But the other three patriarchs looked hesitant, seemingly convinced. Red Rose suddenly rose and said, “What are you thinking of? They are our brothers and sisters. I suppose you all know that.”

The Fifth Patriarch Yu Ban looked at Red Rose and said, “My lady, I believe that if it can increase the possibility, at least we should try.

Red Rose’s face turned purple with rage. Snake Ba said, “Calm down, it’s all for the resurrection of our god.”

The other patriarchs seemed to have thought it through after Snake Ba said it.

Feng XIII said, “Please calm down. We have to do it. There’s no other way.”

“There’s no other way? There’s no other way?” Her voice got higher and higher. “We all have to stay here if we cannot revive our god. Why can’t we leave this place and enter the human world?We need to revive our god so that we can leave this place?”

Feng XIII said in a stern voice, “Don’t you know what we are in the eyes of the humans? If they know about our existence, they will see us as monsters and exterminate us. They have numerous powerful masters and many of them are even stronger than me. My human Master, Mr. Buddha and the mysterious leader of Dragon Gate… All of them are unfathomable. Besides they are scientifically advanced. If we enter their world, will we survive?”

Red Rose cried, “But that doesn’t mean we should sacrifice so many of our people!”

Red Rose saw the aloofness on their faces. There were many feelings in her eyes, “anger, disappointment, self-condemnation, hatred… She nodded her head and said, “We call ourselves gods, but the outsiders call us demons. I agree with the humans. I’m cold-blooded and very cruel, and you are even more so… It’s not humans that are terrifying. It’s you…”

“How ridiculous it is. You said that we cannot leave this place because humans are evil. It’s a lie told over and over again. We imprisoned ourselves here and we think it’s because of humans. I don’t agree with it and you will not have my consent to this plan of yours!”

Feng XIII’s pupils contracted. He cast a glance at Bai Jun and said, “Please talk to her.”

Bai Jun looked at Red Rose and said, “My lady, it’s already decided. So if you’re not going to help, you can just stand and watch.”

“What if I say I won’t allow it?”

Bai Jun said, “Most of us have voted already. Your opinion will not change anything.”

Red Rose cast a sweeping glance at their faces. No one supported her. For them, as long as their god could be revived, it did not matter who made the sacrifice.

Red Rose nodded and said, “Fine, I see it now… I won’t vote. I’ll walk out of this room and tell them what you really are. You are not doing it for the sake of our clan. You’re doing it because you’re selfish. How cold-blooded you are. As long as I’m drawing breath, your plan will never succeed.”

Then Red Rose strode towards the door. Bai Jun quietly stood up, staring at her back.

Xiao Bing, who used to be a top soldier in mercenary and came back to normal life because of the death of his best friend. He started over, played dumb and coped with difficulties. He stood on the bones of others and held beauty by his side. Finally, he succeeded and became the emperor of the city.

“Brother Bing, please protect my little sister as well as my families carefully. I feel lucky to accompany you during these 6 years. It is my honor to go through fire and water with you. I’m not regretful!”

I’m not regretful!

Thinking of what Su Peiya had said before dying, Xiao Bing clenched his fists tightly and cried. He made a decision to protect Su Peiya’s families before finding the spy of Long Men and to make rightful claims for Su Peiya.

Xiao Bing did not love Su Peiya, but he regarded her as his only best friend!

He unfastened the seat belt when the plane landed safely. Looking at the urn in his hands, he sighed, “We have arrived at Jiang City. You get home now, Peiya.”
