156 Plan Begins

“Master, I’m back.”

Looking at Zhang Zizai, who was wearing a clean Daoist robe and no longer looked flustered, the old Celestial Master asked him directly. “Zizai, have you solved your doubts?”

After Zhang Zizai bowed respectfully to the old Celestial Master, he told him what he had just seen. “Master, I’ve already resolved my doubts and dispelled the inner demon in my heart. I went to look for the guild master. He told me a lot.” Zhang Zizai told the Old Celestial Master about what they discussed. “I came back to look for you immediately after the meeting.”

Sitting cross-legged on the bluestone, the old Celestial Master silently listened to everything Zhang Zizai said. After a moment of silence, he sighed slightly. “Troublesome times! Why is our human race going to suffer!”

After a tear streaked across the corner of the old Celestial Master’s eye, his eyes instantly became firm and cold. “Since fate insists that our human race suffer this calamity, we will definitely return it a hundredfold. Even if we die, we will make those bastards pay the price!

“Zizai, you have to remember that ever since the creation of the world, we people of the Dragon Kingdom have believed that humans rule over the heavens. Since the future can’t be changed, we’ll fight to our deaths!

“Even if we die, we have to resist. Let the bastards of the other world know that our human race is not a pushover. If he wants to devour us, it depends on whether he has those teeth. You have to know that even ants have times when they can shake the world!!”

When Zhang Zizai heard the old Celestial Master called him, he immediately replied, “I will follow Master’s teachings.”

However, after he answered, the old Celestial Master looked at him sharply. “Zizai, you have to remember that you can’t betray the human race at any time, even if it’s me or your fellow disciples who die in front of you and are captured and tortured by the God Clan.

“You can’t surrender and betray the human race. Otherwise, even if I die, I won’t be able to rest in peace. Moreover, our relationship as master and disciple will directly dissipate. Do you understand?!”

Zhang Zizai looked at his master’s sharp eyes and wanted to say something, but under the old Celestial Master’s serious gaze, he could only lower his head slowly. “Yes, Master. I promise not to betray the human race. No matter what happens, I won’t betray the human race!!”

Looking at Zhang Zizai, who had his head lowered and a dejected expression, the old Celestial Master’s sharp eyes gradually softened. He stood up and walked in front of Zhang Zizai. He reached out and stroked his head as he said earnestly, “Zizai, you have to know that I’m already old. It’s enough for me to live for so long. If you cause thousands of humans to die in a disaster because of me, then I won’t have the face to see the ancestors of Longhu Mountain even if I die.

“As for your fellow disciples, regardless of the future or outcome, they are their own lives. It’s just that they’re carrying a personal life, and you’re carrying the lives of the entire human race. So it doesn’t matter if they live or die. As long as they die in a worthy manner, it’s the best place for them to die.

“And your future survival involves the lives of many humans. You can’t let your guild master’s plan go wrong because of our rotten lives. Do you understand?”

Under the comfort of the old Celestial Master, Zhang Zizai slowly nodded. “I understand, Master.”

“That’s good. Before you came, I had already informed your Eldest Senior Brother that you would be in charge of everything on Mount Longhu from now on. You don’t have to ask me anymore.

“I’ll support you no matter what you want to do with Longhu Mountain in the future. I hope that you and your guild master can lead the human race to survive.” After saying that, the old Celestial Master patted Zhang Zizai’s shoulder and sat back on the bluestone, silently chanting the Daoist scripture to pray for the future of the human race.

Zhang Zizai held back his tears and knelt on the ground. After kowtowing three times to the old Celestial Master, he said loudly, “Thank you for your help, Master. I will definitely not let you down!” Then, he quickly got up and walked down the Heavenly Gate Mountain, preparing to let everyone in the gym play Glory games together.

After all, if he could increase their combat strength, their chances of winning in the future would increase. The old Celestial Master glanced at Zhang Zizai’s hurried back and sighed softly. Then, like a statue, he closed his eyes and silently prayed for the future of the human race.

At the same time, Arthur Wang, who had returned to the Silver Hands Guild, directly informed all the members to gather. He wanted to announce a major decision.

The puzzled members of the Silver Hand Guild did not delay when Arthur Wang suddenly summoned them. They directly gave up on the mission at hand and returned to the guild to meet Arthur Wang.

“Guild Master, did something happen? Why are you in such a hurry to find us?”

“That’s right, Guild Master. I was fighting a wild monster just now and was almost killed by me.”

Looking at the 130 plus brothers who had gone through life and death with him, Arthur Wang stood on the platform and said to the people below, “Everyone, do you believe me?!”

As soon as Arthur Wang said this, the members of the Silver Hands Guild fell silent for a moment before expressing their belief.

“Guild Master, of course we believe you!”

“That’s right. I don’t believe anyone now, but I will definitely believe you, Guild Master!”

“Guild Master, if you have anything to say, just say it. You dug us out of the pile of dead people one by one. You gave us our lives. How can we not believe you!”

“That’s right. Guild Master, tell us who you want to kill. We guarantee that we won’t even blink. This year of peaceful life has made us so bored that we’re almost moldy!”

Looking at his brothers, who had risked their lives with him several times, Arthur Wang did not continue to keep them in suspense and said directly, “Since you all believe me, I’ve decided to bring you guys to join the Deicide Guild and do something big with them. As for what it is, I can’t tell you because it’s top secret.”

After Arthur Wang finished speaking, the members of the Silver Hands Guild below looked at each other in confusion and asked questions.

“Guild Master, what’s the big deal? Can’t you tell us?”

“That’s right, Boss. It’s just a game. What’s the big deal?”

“Could it be bigger than us rescuing the higher-ups of the Dragon Kingdom in the past?”

Hearing everyone’s discussion, Arthur Wang gestured for everyone to quiet down and said to them, “This matter is indeed very big. It’s so big that even if it’s compared to rescuing the upper echelons of the Dragon Kingdom is a mission, it’s thousands of times bigger.

“Moreover, this mission is very dangerous, so forgive me for not being able to tell you the details. I’m afraid that something unexpected will happen to the mission because you know too much. Due to the danger of this mission, if any of you withdraw, I can give you a settlement fee.

“Those who don’t choose to quit will follow me to the end. So you have to choose carefully.”
