Chapter 380: Encounters

Li Xianyu’s doubts could only be buried in his heart because the heart of the only person who could answer him had died. It was just like the love between the living and the dead in movies and TV literature.

 He knew that the old San Wu had died.

 This was even though she retained all her memories and remembered the past bit by bit, including her interactions with him.

 However, she would never want to strengthen her interpersonal relationships anymore. She would never show a little joy because of his praise, or a little peace of mind when he touched her head.

 She lost her emotions, the thing that formed the fundamentals of human beings.

 “Every man has his own life, and you cannot force it.” Hua Yang comforted him.

 “Is there any hope of recovery?” Li Xianyu couldn’t help lowering his voice.

 “I don’t know.” Hua Yang shook her head. She couldn’t give any answer to this. “It will depend on her life and fate.”

 There was silence for a while. Li Xianyu turned his head and asked, “San Wu, do you… still want to make friends?”

 San Wu also turned to look at him. She was unbelievably calm. The old her would reply in an expectant manner, “Yeah.”

 Now, she didn’t even have doubts about what a friend was. She had been completely reduced to a machine without feelings.

 Li Xianyu completely broke down and roared, “Fate and karma? Bullshit!”

 After shouting a few words, his voice became lower. He covered his face and his voice trembled. “I’m going to kill them, kill them…”

 However, the Ancient Gods’ Clan had been destroyed and God of War was dead. He couldn’t even find an object to vent his anger on. Hua Yang was right. Everything was Heaven’s will. He couldn’t change San Wu’s past encounters, or her fate.

 It was similar to how he witnessed the life of the Demonic Priest, but was unable to change what had happened.

 “She just wanted to be an ordinary person. It’s such a simple request, why torture her like this?” Li Xianyu murmured.

 Cui Hua stood on Li Xianyu’s shoulder, and felt a little tremble under her feet. She knew that he was crying, even though he was covering his face.

 Master often said, “Enlightenment is comparable to wisdom. A bright and shiny mirror resembles a calm heart. Since the heart has always been calm, why would it be tainted?”

 Wasn’t this the state of San Wu at this moment?

 Master often said, “From love stems worry, from love stems fear. If you leave the lover, there is no worry or fear.”

 However, why did Cui Hua feel only sorrow and heartache when she saw San Wu in this state? If she were to depart this world one day, would he feel the same way as he felt for her?

 At this instant, Equal’s walkie talkie crackled as its signal light lit up.

 He held the walkie talkie in surprise. “The army is very close to us.”

 The walkie talkie was connected to the other side, but the signal from the walkie talkie made everyone’s expressions change. “Calling for emergency help, emergency help. Equal God, are you with San Wu?”

 

 Not long ago.

 “Do you want to take action?”

 Earth God handed the prepared information to Ape God. After reading it, Ape God passed it on to Thunderlord and then to Food God…

 After everyone had read the message, the eight S-class people from Baoze looked at each other, and then drew “√” or “x” on the ground to vote.

 Three votes in favor.

 Five against.

 Earth God thought about it, took back his mobile phone, and typed in the message, “Is it because of Fire God, who will hold us back? We can arrange for one of us to protect him, and the others will do enough. We still have Unparalleled War Spirit.”

 Fire God chuckled.

 His origins were damaged and his combat power was no longer at its peak. However, in these two days, his physical strength and qi were slowly recovering. He was not weak to the point whereby people needed to drag him around. He could protect himself adequately.

 “Li Xianyu has been missing for two and a half days. Judging from his appearance, his life is probably not in danger,” Thunderlord said.

 This issue didn’t need to be communicated by sending text messages. It could be said openly.

 Ever since they split up in the bronze palace, Li Xianyu, who was in charge of providing help to the Association of Superpowered Beings, had been uncontactable. Instead, the Unparalleled War Spirit, who had killed Wald Jones, had joined up with the rest of Baoze.

 Earth God looked at White God and the rest as he wrote a message, “That lad is nourishing himself, hunting the demon descendants of various forces everywhere.”

 Thunderlord received the phone, looked at it, and was shocked. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”

 Earth God shrugged. “This kind of thing cannot be spread. Moreover, it is not an urgent matter.”

 Ape God smiled. “That lad is very skilful and witty. We don’t need to worry about him. Let’s continue to discuss the topic just now.”

 Hence, everyone fell silent. They used text messages to communicate, and drew “√” and “X” on the ground to vote.

 The topic of discussion: Whether to kill the demon descendants around them.

 The temple on the top of their heads hung to the east, just like a lighthouse guiding the demon descendants in the Great Deities Palace. It was inevitable that they would encounter each other as they moved towards a place.

 At this moment, one third of the demon descendants’ community had entered the Great Deities Palace, including Baoze Group.

 Among the seven families, the Shen, Wang, Zhao, and Chen families were present.

 The Taoist and Buddhist Associations were even worse off. Before entering the Great Deities Palace, the number of people from their side was about 400 to 500. Now, there were only slightly more than 100 left.

 The scattered cultivators were the worse of all. Compared to the big families and the big sects, they were just weaklings.

 The rich depended on science and technology, while the poor depended on variation of events. This was applicable to the scattered cultivators as well. The demon descendant families, the Taoists and the Buddhists had a rich array of skills, but the scattered cultivators didn’t have them. The employees of Baoze Group had powerful magic weapons, but the scattered cultivators still didn’t possess them.

 When the stone sculptures revived, countless scattered cultivators lost their lives on the spot.

 At this time, there were no more than ten organisations comprising scattered cultivators.

 The overseas forces were slightly better. Those who dared to cross the ocean to search for treasures in foreign countries were all elites, and were not in the hitlist of Baoze Group. Except for the suspected total annihilation of the Association of Superpowered Beings, the rest of the foreign forces had lost about one-third of their people.

 Presently, these forces had gathered together temporarily to rest, maintaining a certain distance from each other.

 In order to avoid being heard by people with super ears, Thunderlord and the others adopted texting as a form of communication.

 Thunderlord looked at Earth God, grabbed his cell phone and typed a message, “The people who voted in favour, are you guys retarded? Has your IQ been eaten by dogs? Is it time to strike? The timing and occasion are not right. Even if Unparalleled War Spirit is helping us, can you bear to kill the innocent people?”

 Baoze’s S-classes disagreed on this matter. The three who voted in favour was: Earth God, Black God, and Ape God.

 White God, who was always united with her husband, Black God, did not stand on his side this time.

 She blinked her long eyelashes twice as she wiped her face with skin cream. She remarked, “Everyone on our side is not present. We can’t hide it. If there are too many people here, we can’t handle it.”

 After a little thinking, they understood what she meant.

 The clean-up operation would not end in a short while. When everyone was gathered, it was hard to guarantee that Baoze’s operations would not be discovered. Hence, it couldn’t be concealed. However, if they tolerated, they wouldn’t be able to handle everyone if they had gathered.

 What Thunderlord didn’t expect was that the always calm Ape God actually voted in favour.

 “What do you think, Ape God?” Thunderlord looked at him.

 “White God is right, but we don’t have any more chances.” Ape God took out his mobile phone, typed something and showed it to everyone.

 What was the meaning of this?

 “Remember what King told us before we set out?”

 “Kill those demon descendants on the list,” Earth God replied on his mobile phone.

 White God recalled for a moment, and repeated the original words of Lightning King in the memorandum.

 Ape God took a look, nodded and typed, “Yes, he said: kill all the demon descendants who enter the Great Deities Palace. After saying this, he paused for a few seconds before retrieving the hitlist.”

 “What’s the problem?” Earth God frowned.

 “The point is not the list, it’s the previous sentence.” Ape God bowed his head and typed, “Do you remember that I used to be the deputy director of the headquarters before I went to Chongqing’s branch? I am familiar with Lightning King. He is a cautious man. If the task was only to kill the targets on the hit list, he would not say, ‘Kill all the demon descendants.’ Conversations regarding missions are not casual. Any redundant words would pose the risk of misinterpretation.”

 “Although he said this casually, he paused after saying it.” Ape God raised his mobile phone to show the others and continued typing, “He is hinting at us.”

 “Hint?” Food God was stunned, then frowned. “Why would he hint at us? If it’s a mission, he can just give us orders.”

 “What you’re going to ask now is not why he hinted at us,” Earth God sneered. “Instead, we have to think: what does the company want to do?”

 Food God frowned. “Want to fight?”

 Earth God replied, “I’m not afraid of you.”

 Ape God coughed and showed his mobile phone to everyone. “Yes, although the company didn’t explicitly say it, we should think about what Lightning King or the big boss really wants. Then, we should consider whether we should carry out King’s hints.”

 Lightning King had merely hinted, but he had his thoughts and rationale. Smart people would not ask why, but would think about what he wanted to do.

 At this time, the soft sound of footsteps approached.

 Thunderlord and the others immediately stopped talking and quietly turned off their mobile screens. They turned around to see Shen Kuo, the head of the Shen family.

 “Everyone, what should we do now?” Shen Kuo clasped his fists and looked sincere.

 There was a terrifying overseas force in the Great Deities Palace. It was said to be the mythical Holy Infant who killed anyone it saw without emotion. It had directly led to the current situation, where the major forces had suffered losses.

 The news came from the disciples of the Taoist and Buddhist Associations. Baoze also verified the accuracy of their news.

 Of the seven families, the other four were suspected to have been entirely exterminated.

 There was no longer the Association of Superpowered Beings and the scattered cultivators. The elders of the Taoist and Buddhist Associations were mostly wiped out as well.

 All the major forces’ expressions changed. They dared not go out to wander again. They planned to stick to Baoze and lean on this towering tree.

 In fact, the current situation was not caused by the Holy Infant alone, but also due to Baoze’s S-classes.

 “What do you think we should do?” Thunderlord countered.

 With a deep sigh, Shen Kuo said pitifully, “I have discussed with the other family leaders. Holy Infant is a creature that has attained Half-Step Gokudo Path. Our forces have suffered greatly. Once we encounter it, it will be hard to fight it.”

 “So?”

 “We want to borrow some magic weapons. Heat weapons will do as well.”

 So, the old fox wanted to borrow weapons.

 The S-classes complained to themselves. Actually, the person we want to kill most is you. Your Shen family is the thorn amongst the seven families.

 The Shen family knew what they had done. Shen Kuo obviously knew that Baoze Group hated the Shen family. Hence, when they entered the Great Deities Palace, he refused to follow Baoze and insisted on following the Taoist and Buddhist Associations.

 After the integration of the dimensions, the Shen family avoided being hunted down by Thunderlord and the others by virtue of their coquettish position. The S-class people could not find them. What was more exasperating was that the Shen family had been so lucky to the point that they hadn’t encountered the overseas forces led by the Holy Infant. So far, the Shen family had suffered little losses, amounting to a few small teams comprising 20 to 30 people in total.

 Thunderlord thought about it and agreed.

 They had made all-round preparations for this mission. They had brought a lot of heat and magic weapons. Some weapons that were not useful could be lent to the major forces. The hunting task aside, Holy Infant was their common enemy.

 However, considering that they were still enemies ultimately, Thunderlord didn’t agree to lend too much. He was stingy and gave away a small amount. He refused any bargain pleas, and chased Shen Kuo away.

 “You should have more than that, right?” Shen Kuo held several wallets and thought to himself, If I split this, we wouldn’t have much left.

 “No, that’s what we brought,” Earth God replied lightly.

 Shen Kuo ignored the other party’s orders to scram and wanted to say more. However, at this instant, his expression changed. A power that induced fear emanated from afar.

 In the distance, at the end of the horizon, a tall monster appeared.

 It was the image of an infant, but its height was 20 meters. Its skin was greenish-black with dark and bulging veins. It was more hideous than any ghost doll in a horror movie.

 A group of foreign demon descendants followed behind the Holy Infant as they approached fiercely.

 Baoze’s S-classes stood up and their expressions changed slightly.

 The senior employees stood up and positioned themselves beside the S-classes. Behind them were the demon descendants of the major forces.

 There was a gap of a few hundred metres between the opposing parties, as they looked at each other in a confrontational manner.
