Chapter 987 - Emergency

An hour ago, Zark met Lin Xingzhi inside her room.

"My Lady, do you need me?"

"Yes. I need you. Evelyn has finished her Lightning Tribulation. After transforming into the Divine Body, she will leave that world. I want you to go there right now to bring her here."

"I understand. I shall bring her here as soon as possible. May I mention the system to make her believe me?" He asked.

"You may. She already knows it anyway."

Zark bowed his head and left the room, heading straight to Evelyn.

However, the surprise came before he reached the world. There was a person heading in the same direction as him, so he instantly activated his Spatial Gate to wait inside the Space World to avoid any contact with him.

'Wait… Isn't that the Palm God?' Zark thought while watching his movement inside the Space Realm. Luckily, he could use this Space Realm to observe people. The Palm God wouldn't notice him as long as he wasn't too close to him.

Surprisingly, the Palm God suddenly stopped mysteriously, right in front of his target. Evelyn would come out any moment, so he had a complicated thought in this matter.

'What should I do? My mission is to get Evelyn to Eulja, but the Palm God will find me. At that time, he will know there is something special about that kid, and the most reasonable thing is Master. When that time comes, there are many possible futures that none of them can end up peacefully.

'On the other hand, if I just let him like this, Evelyn might appear in front of him. I don't know what he is doing right now…But his movement is suspicious. Is he waiting for someone here or aiming for Evelyn?

'Still, I can't really let him take Evelyn, right? Ugh, my position is not qualified to make the decision, but I can't really call Lady Lin Xingzhi from here. If I leave now to inform the lady, Evelyn might have already gone before I come back here.

'What should I do?' Zark had a mixed thought, wondering what he needed to do. Each decision came with its own advantage and disadvantage.

Before he could come up with an answer, Evelyn appeared on top of the world as she just got expelled. She looked around, trying to find the person Lin Xingzhi sent.

Unfortunately, the first person she found was an old man. Without much knowledge, she obviously blurted out the question like, "Are you the one Sister Lin Xingzhi sent?"

Even Zark could imagine it. He then saw a little argument between them, and Evelyn almost drew her sword. Before everything happened, the old man released his Divine Energy, made her scared, and brought her somewhere.

Zark was stunned for a second. He wanted to follow her but remembered she should be able to track Evelyn with the system.

The scene where Letizia got caught flashed in his mind too.

With much difficulty, Zark decided to retreat to report everything that had just happened with Lin Xingzhi.

He used his Teleportation Array and arrived at Eulja, specifically Lin Xingzhi's room as soon as possible.

Bang.

"There is an emergency." Zark panted a few times as he was rushing here.

Lin Xingzhi was startled by his action before furrowing her eyebrows.

"Do you need anything? What is the emergency?"

"Lady Evelyn has been kidnapped."

"What?!" Lin Xingzhi dropped her jaw and blinked a few times, never expecting to hear this. She opened the tab about Evelyn.

Since he was curious, Zark also took a glance on the screen, but unlike Alex's, there was nothing that could be seen from Evelyn. There was no memory that was recorded or anything. Instead, he only found her information.

Name: Evelyn de Viona Thiveapia (Unconscious)

Age: 41

Strength: Rank 10 God

Mission: None

Gacha Coin: 2 Coins

Zark asked with a confused expression. "Is there no record like Master? We can see through their conversation to know his objective."

"His? Who was it?"

Hesitated for a second, Zark answered. "The Palm God."

Lin Xingzhi's eyes turned cold. Her Killing Intent began to spread around the castle as she stared at Zark. "Who?"

"It was the Palm God. I thought because my lady can track everything, it's best for me to retreat and inform you about this." Zark explained.

Lin Xingzhi took a deep breath to calm her down and shook her head. "No. I can't track anyone else other than Alex. Since you all have only gotten the information about Alex and the others from me, which have been compiled, you haven't realized this yet, but this is the real condition.

"Usually, I always asked them about their condition first because I didn't have enough information. Alex also didn't know this…But nothing is perfect. This system is also not perfect. The only time I could track her was when I asked her about her condition and location. Unfortunately, she seems to have fallen unconscious after following him for a while. And I can't access all the things she said other than the last one, which you can see it's…' Yes,' which is very misleading. Argh, I should keep track of her earlier..."

"That means…" Zark's face turned pale.

"Yes. We lose her. Without having the knowledge of outer space, she won't know where she is without asking. And I don't know whether she has that opportunity." Her expression was serious, and her tone was grim. She completely had a headache dealing with the Palm God.

"Does that mean we can't do anything?"

"We still have your information." She looked at him. "Bring me the map of the galaxy. We will try to investigate this matter."

"I understand." Zark hurriedly left and brought the map.

It was a huge 3D map.

"This is the Musee World." Zark pointed at a certain planet and changed the direction. "The Palm God went toward this direction."

Lin Xingzhi calculated the trajectory and sighed. "There are two thousand planets along the way. Although it was easy to find a Rank 1 God inside a planet, it would still take time. Tell me what you saw first."

"Yes." Zark started recounting everything that happened. Since he couldn't listen to their conversation, he only gave the information about Evelyn's action before following him.

Lin Xingzhi became even more furious, especially when she heard that the Palm God needed to strike her first to get her. In other words, this was a kidnapping.

"What shall we do? If I come back to Musee World and follow the trail…" He looked down and sighed. "I apologize. I can't really get the trail, but I think I can lock our search down for only a hundred or so planets."

"It's outside our territory, so we don't have any information in that area." She pinched the bridge of her nose, wondering what she needed to do. "For now, have the N Squad in the world in this direction inform everything they find. It is around fifty worlds that have been inhabited by our spies, so we will start there."

"I understand. I will try to teleport in that direction to see whether he has passed it or not to narrow down the search area." Zark nodded.

Before he left, Korzan had appeared and asked out loud. "What happened? Why are you still releasing your Killing Intent?"

Lin Xingzhi explained in a few sentences, startling Korzan.

To her surprise, Korzan had a different point of view on this matter. Instead of worrying about Evelyn, he was more focused on Alex. He asked, "Did this mean Master got backstabbed again?"

"!!!" Lin Xingzhi suddenly realized the whole situation. "To get Alex to lower his guard and get a few information about him. If I am not wrong, Alex once said about his protege, Evelyn, to that Silvia."

"This…This is a conspiracy." Korzan also became angry and clenched his teeth. "We should kill that b*tch!"

"Open our reserve. There is a possibility that Alex will need it." Lin Xingzhi pointed at Zark. "Bring me two hundred billion Spirit Crystals."

"Understood. I shall prepare it right away." Zark nodded and left.

"Are we going to pick up our weapon again?" Korzan asked.

"For now, I will ask the N Squad to investigate all these worlds. I want everyone on the nearby planets to help. And bring Nelson as well. I will be commanding from here with this system." She nodded.

"But if this matter continues, won't Master's identity become well-known?" Korzan asked. "Shouldn't we ask Master's opinion?"

Lin Xingzhi let out a long sigh before nodding her head. "Yeah. I almost forgot."

"I don't mean to be rude, but Evelyn is only Master's friend. That's all. Unlike him, I can't justify everything with only friends. Only if the one involved is a family, I will command the entire force without even asking him," Korzan added.

"Yeah, you are right." Lin Xingzhi agreed with him. "It seems because we haven't taken up arms for a long time, people have forgotten why our Eulja was feared…"

Korzan didn't say anything and waited for his Master's response.

After two minutes of talking with Alex, Lin Xingzhi finally released her killing intent again. "We will leave Alex for the time being. The Spirit Crystals should be able to level up someone to Rank 4, if not Rank 3 God. It should be enough to stop that Silvia. Since they have a hostage, we will have one too…To think she wants to escape."

"That means…" Korzan narrowed his eyes.

"Alex's order. Get the N Squad moving and prepare all troops." Lin Xingzhi paused for a moment. "Bring Anya to me, we will hold a meeting. And Anna is to assume my position to calm Alex down for a moment."

"Who should we call for the meeting?"

"Bring all Six Elemental Gods and the Five Guardians! Ready for a full-scale war…Because as soon as we confirm it's not a misunderstanding, we will have thirty-seven worlds to destroy and billions to kill!" Her voice was cold. "I will talk to Alex for the time being."

Korzan nodded and disappeared. He asked all his subordinates to gather all the people and prepared the spacesh.i.p.s.

It was a breeze for Korzan. In only twenty minutes, every single person had gathered inside a room.

Lin Xingzhi then entered the room. There was this giant throne in front of a table, but no one dared to have that seat. Even Korzan and Lin Xingzhi took the ones beside it.

There were more than ten people gathered in this room and looked at Lin Xingzhi with a curious expression.

"What is this emergency you are talking about?" An old man asked. This one was a bit special. Despite his aged face, he still tied his white hair into a ponytail and looked menacing.

"Evel—Ahem, One of Alex's soon to be wife is kidnapped by the Palm God. As soon as we confirm their intention, it will become either full-scale war or negotiation."

All Six Elemental Gods and Five Guardians immediately furrowed their eyebrows.

"She is not his wife yet?" The same person asked.

"Yes. However, you should know about his characteristics…"

"So, that one doesn't change, huh." The old man repeatedly nodded. The other spirits also felt relieved because that was the only characteristic they hoped to remain the same. Even though it created numerous enemies, it also gave them security.

"Still…We all have heard about your proposal a few years ago. Isn't it too soon to reveal this information?" Another one asked. This time it was an old woman sitting beside the one asked earlier.

"I know, but I want to say this one important piece for you all." Lin Xingzhi paused for ten seconds, making the tension go through the roof. She then opened her mouth. "Alex's aim is not becoming a God King."

"What?!" The old man stood up and the others were taken aback. They all knew despite his protective nature, Alex was a family man. If his aim weren't becoming a God King, then he would just be a family man.

"Are you sure we—"

Before he finished, Lin Xingzhi shouted. "I haven't finished!"

The room fell silent once again, and Lin Xingzhi continued. "His aim this time is above God King!"

*Gasp!*

They sucked a cold breath, and their body started shivering.

The old man finally understood why Lin Xingzhi gathered all of them. "Haha! No wonder you have us here while leaving aside the Ten Champions. You want them to defend Eulja while we are out…I see. Even though it's kind of too soon, I think it's a good time for the world to make the universe tremble once again!

"After a long five thousand years of slumber, we shall remind them once again that a Sleeping Beast is still a beast. And they shouldn't annoy the sleeping beast!" The old man grinned. His eyes started glowing.

"That is after the N squad gets the information. I want all of you to stand by, and I don't think we should bring Alex for the time being. Even if we said that Evelyn was Alex's wife, he still didn't show himself up, so others would still have a doubt in their heart. Anyway, all of you shall remain here.

"Fufu…This has become exciting. Eulja shall once again walk on a tribulation path. If we lose, we shall perish, but if we win, none can stand up against us. This is exciting." The old man grinned.

Lin Xingzhi took another glance before turning around, heading back to her computer to check on Evelyn before Anna suddenly came inside the room.

"Evelyn has woken up," Anna said hurriedly.
