Chapter 862: Father’s Choice

Lu Fanghui remained silent for a long time when he said that.

For a few seconds, he seemed to turn into a statue and did not move at all.

However, intense ripples appeared on the surface of the red wine in his hand.

It was as if a mini storm had been conjured, indicating that his heart was not calm at all.

“Power, or rather, cultivation level, is a very objective thing. It requires a lot of time, energy, and cultivation resources to build and maintain.”

“When we waste a lot of time to help the ordinary citizens repair their houses, rebuild their homes, and grow crops, we naturally don’t have the time to improve our combat ability.

“When we get a lot of crystals, we don’t refine them into gene drugs for our own consumption to stimulate the growth of our cells and break through the limits of our lives. Instead, we spend our precious resources on the elderly, the weak, the women, and the children.. Other than their heartfelt gratitude and laughter, of course, we get nothing.

“In the past, we did not realize this.

“When our parents, brothers, and sisters who stayed in the nine major gangs seized every opportunity to plunder resources and cultivate crazily to become stronger and stronger, we ‘idealists’, who thought that we were great, were actually cold signal birds in a different form. We were smug about the ‘kindness’ on the surface and the ‘justice’ that was obsessed with the details, but we did not realize that the fatal winter was quietly approaching.

“Now, we have to pay the price for our stupidity.

“The members of the Red Heart Society are all tough men. Faced with a monster ten times stronger than them, none of them retreated, let alone ran away. They did not even frown. Everybody rushed forward without any hesitation.

“So what? Even if they stuck their eyebrows with glue, they could not escape the fate of being torn into pieces by the monster, swallowed, and turned into excrement.

“Many people died, including the president of the Red Heart Society.

“I remember that the president had a magnificent beard. His eyes were the size of bronze bells and were full of vigor. He looked quite ferocious and did not let anyone get close to him.

“However, he was actually a very gentle and humorous man. All the children in the district liked him. They often climbed onto his shoulders and rode him like a horse. However, he did not care at all. Instead, he cooperated with the children by running, jumping, and sprinting to a stop. The children were so scared that they burst into laughter.

“This idiot…”

“When the leaders of the other gangs were fighting for resources and cultivating crazily until they reached six-star, seven-star, or even Deity Realm, he wasted too much time on patrolling the administrative area, playing with the children, and caring for the elderly. Now that the Apocalyptic Beast is here, who will die if he doesn’t die?

“The gap between the two parties is too big.

“The Apocalyptic Beast did not target him. It did not even notice him. With just a simple kick, half of his body and half of his head were crushed into meat paste.

“He was lying in the footprints of the Apocalyptic Beast. His broken limbs and blood-stained mud were mixed together. He could only stare at the other half of his head with his remaining eye. He could only watch helplessly as his jurisdiction and the children who were laughing like silver bells on his neck were engulfed by the flames of destruction.

“I saw that his eyeballs were bulging out, and tears of blood were spurting out of his hollow eye sockets.

“I thought that he must have regretted it too much at the last moment.

“It was a pity that regret, like kindness, was the most useless thing in the cruel apocalypse.

“At this moment, Lei Zongchao arrived.

“As the best expert in Dragon City, Battle God Lei Zongchao, who was at his peak, boasted unparalleled power that could destroy the world. He was the guardian god in the hearts of many citizens.

“Seeing that the Red Heart Society was destroyed and dozens of communities were caught in a sea of fire, Lei Zongchao was furious. He activated his overwhelming spirit energy and heavily wounded an Apocalyptic Beast during the first clash.

“However, there were simply too many Apocalyptic Beasts and other monsters attacking Dragon City.

“No matter how strong Lei Zongchao was, he was no match for four hands.

“Besides, the enemy was far more than ‘four hands.’ He might have eight claws, more than ten tails, and hundreds of tusks.

“Lei Zongchao was soon besieged by three Apocalyptic Beasts and dozens of Hell Beasts. He could not get away for a moment.

“The rest of the monsters accelerated and ravaged our home into a mess.

“The sound of burning flames, the sound of collapsing buildings, the screams of the soldiers, and the helpless cries of the children made Lei Zongchao very upset. He gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.

“Yes. Lei Zongchao and President Chi Xin were both good people, but the greatest weakness of good people was that they were soft-hearted. In a battle, this weakness was fatal.

“Even Lei Zongchao’s armor was soaked in blood. His skin, which was exposed to the air, had been torn apart. There was not a single piece of flesh left.

“It seems that he, who never retreated, might have been killed by the surging beast horde.

“Lei Zongchao’s fall means that the entire defense line will collapse. There is no other possibility except for the destruction of humiliation that awaits us.

“My companions and I are all prepared to die.

“However, looking at each other in dismay, we read more from each other’s eyes. We suddenly realized that what drives us to face death with ease is not courage and justice, but shame and regret.

“We regret that we did not listen to the teachings of our fathers and followed them on the path of becoming stronger by any means necessary. We regret that we spent too much time and resources on meaningless things, which resulted in our own deaths, as well as the deaths of countless citizens who trusted us very much and placed all their hopes on us.

“We did not have the strength to become heroes, but we insisted on pretending to be heroes. When the crisis really came, we could not bear any responsibility. How could we still have the face to run back to our hometown? We could only use death to wash away our sins and escape punishment.

“My companions and I all closed our eyes. We didn’t want to see each other’s ashamed expressions anymore. We just wanted to rush toward the Apocalyptic Beasts and end everything in the raging flames of the beasts.

“Right at this moment, we heard a sonic boom.

“More than ten sonic booms tore through the sky and shook the earth. Like thousands of soldiers and horses, they swept over from the sky.

“After our eyes were blown open by the sonic booms, we were very surprised to find that the ones who came at lightning speed like cruise missiles were none other than our parents.

“They were none other than our greedy, selfish, and cold-hearted parents who had taken everything by force.

“They were none other than our parents who, in order to defeat the Blood Alliance, pretended to be righteous, raised the banner of ‘justice’ and ‘fairness’, and made countless promises to the members and citizens. However, after they defeated the Blood Alliance, they could not wait to divide the Blood Alliance’s inheritance and devote all the resources to their own cultivation.

“It was none other than… the dragon-slaying warriors who have turned into evil dragons.

“The leader was my father, Lu Zhongqi.

“Surging spirit flames surrounded his body. Spirit energy condensed into a blast wave that crazily bombarded the air around him, making deafening noises. It sounded like waves crashing on the shore, but also like rolling thunder.

“His imposing manner was no weaker than that of Battle God Lei Zongchao.

“I couldn’t believe my eyes. My father had made such an amazing breakthrough and advanced to the deity level in only a year and a half!

“Looking at my father’s emotionless face, which was still as cold as an ax, I suddenly remembered something from the past.

“Not long after I joined the Red Heart Society, there was a six or seven-year-old girl in the territory. Because she was infected with a very special flesh-eating bacteria from another world, her internal organs were all gnawed until they were full of holes. She was on the verge of death.

“I remember that it was an extremely beautiful girl. Her voice was as pleasant as a lark’s. Before her illness, her singing was the best solace for the members of the Red Heart Society who had worked hard for a day.

“Everyone called her ‘Little Lark.’ All the members of the Red Heart Society liked her very much. We, the high-level disciples who had betrayed the nine major gangs, even more so. We all regarded Little Lark as the best symbol of humanity. In the dark and bloody apocalypse, she was the most worthy thing to protect.

“Therefore, when we learned that Little Lark was infected with the flesh-eating bacteria from another world, we were all very anxious and tried to cure her illness.

“It was a pity that the Red Heart Society lacked medicine. Our exploration of the bacteria and spirit energy from another world had just begun. The doctors could not do anything even after a long time. They only said that they could only create miracles if they found a piece of Blue Origin Crystal and stimulated Little Lark’s own vitality. Otherwise, the cute little girl could only rot to death from the inside out.

“I know that my father happened to have a piece of the Blue Origin Crystal!

“When I betrayed my family, I swore that I would never return to the Lu family unless Dragon City became a paradise where everyone was equal, peaceful, and prosperous.

“But for the sake of Little Lark, I went back on my word. When I returned to the Lu family, I knelt down heavily to my father under the taunting, mocking, caring, and disappointed gazes of my brothers and sisters, begging him to give—no, lend me a tiny bit of the Blue Origin Crystal.

“I know how precious the Origin Crystal is, but no matter how precious it is, can it be more precious than a human life? Besides, I don’t need much. I just need a tiny bit, a tiny bit smaller than a fingernail!

“Just as you thought, my father rejected me without hesitation.

“He said that he needed the Origin Crystal to repair his damaged organs and bloodlines, shorten the cooling down time between two crazy training sessions, and accelerate his leveling up.

“Even a tiny bit of the Blue Origin Crystal, which was smaller than a fingernail, could delay his upgrade speed for days, hours, and minutes.

“But he couldn’t wait for even a few seconds.

“I was shocked by my father’s reason.

“Before I went back, I thought that he might refuse.

“But I didn’t expect that he would reject me with such a reason.

“For the sake of a lively human life, I slowed down my cultivation a little and wasted a few days at most. I don’t understand how cold and heartless I have to be to reject such an exchange!

“One day, you will understand

“Father only told me these three words before he chased me out of the house and continued to focus on his cultivation.

“He didn’t even bother to fly into a rage because of my betrayal. It was as if the unruliness of his own son was nothing compared to his cultivation.

“Of course, I didn’t understand at that time, and I thought that I would never understand.

“Especially when Bai Ling finally died in extreme pain in front of me because she couldn’t find the Blue Origin Crystal, and when her melodious singing turned into the most mournful screams, I was even more furious and heartbroken.

“At that time, in my eyes, my father had become as terrifying as the leader of the Blood Alliance in the past. They were all devils who would do anything to achieve their goals, be selfish, and disregard human lives!

“Until now…

“My father, who had broken through to the Deity Realm, and the other leaders of the nine major gangs who were selfish, unscrupulous, plundered resources, and trained crazily to break through to the Deity Realm together, descended from the sky and fought the Apocalyptic Beasts. They saved Battle God Lei Zongchao, as well as the community, which was about to be destroyed, and the thousands of survivors.

“I just in a flash, understood father’s choice that day!”
