Chapter 364 - All Your Fault, All Your Fault

“Master Zhao, why do we have to leave? We have broken down the Alliance main camp and we have the chance to enter deeper. Even if we don’t enter, we need to occupy this place and block the Alliance from coming through.”

The Laoshan City experts were really confused and many of them were also very reluctant.

They had already succeeded, so why did they have to retreat?

Old Shen looked at Zhao Lishan and frowned. He tried to probe and thought about the possibilities since Xuan Long wasn’t here.

“Did something happen over at You City?”

There were 8 defense cities. Maigu City had been breached and the remaining cities relied on You City. As long as You City remained, they would be able to continue defending. Now that Zhao Lishan told them to retreat, there was only one possibility.

Something must have happened at You City.

Zhao Lishan didn’t hide anything and told them about the situation. When they heard the truth, they were all stunned.

They didn’t expect Lin Wanyi to know that the Alliance Headquarters would shift the experts to attack You City. Moreover, he also knew that You City wouldn’t be able to defend, so he informed the other cities to take the chance to attack.

The plan wasn’t to occupy Alliance land but to use the chance to kill more Alliance members.

Old Shen kept silent for a long while and then said, “Do you think all this is worth it?”

“Yes.” Zhao Lishan said firmly, “Everything Brother Lin did was to go against the Alliance. It is the same for us. Anything we do is worth it. Now, inform everyone to retreat from Laoshan City.”

Not only did the Laoshan City people retreat, but the other defense cities retreated too.

Of course, they could have stayed to defend against the Alliance.

But it was totally pointless and would only cause more deaths.

Lin Wanyi was a really confident person and if he said that he could defend, no matter how many people were sent, he would be able to. But if he said he couldn’t, then he really couldn’t, which was why everyone familiar with Lin Wanyi would choose to believe him.

So, they took the chance that the experts were at You City to attack.

Of course, when they received the news, naturally they could choose to head to You City to fight alongside Lin Wanyi but the Alliance wasn’t so stupid. In the end, they might defend You City might but leave the other cities exposed.

Far away from You City, Lin Wanyi looked at Lin Fan, “Unfilial child, listen up. Don’t cause problems. Please do not cause problems. During this period of time, don’t have any conflicts with Alliance or the top sects. Do you understand?”

Lin Fan didn’t want to listen to what his father had to say.

What did he mean by not have any conflicts?

If he didn’t have any conflicts, then what was the point of living?

“Eh, don’t worry father. I will definitely listen to you.” Lin Fan appeared really solemn and acted as if he was listening.

“Zhu Shen, take care of him.” Lin Wanyi said. As for Zhang Tianshan, he was basically useless. If he was of any use, then the unfilial kid wouldn’t have appeared in You City.

Zhu Shen raised his pig head and looked at Master Lin.

Now that he became a pig, how could he even take care of Lin Fan? But forget it, he could only nod his head.

“Understood.”

Then, Lin Wanyi left. He left really decisively and didn’t hesitate at all. He had more important things that he had to settle.

Who could they blame the You City destruction on?

No one. If they had to blame someone it would be that they weren’t strong enough, that everyone wasn’t united. If they were, then such a thing wouldn’t have happened.

If all the top sects worked together, they would have been able to defend against all enemies. Counter attacking wouldn’t have even been a problem.

What a waste.

The idea was great but the reality was really cruel. Things wouldn’t always pan out the way one thought they would.

“Young Master Lin, what are your plans?” Zhu Shen asked. He was now half useless; what could he do as a pig? His head hurt but at least he still had ways to fight back.

The inconvenience was just temporary.

When he got familiar with all of this, things would become much better.

Lin Fan said, “I will look at the situation and how the Alliance acts. This place seems safe, so let’s rest here first.”

Zhang Tianshan just sat there without saying anything. Maybe he was still thinking about You City.

Too many people had died.

To Zhang Tianshan, when he closed his eyes, those scenes from 20 years ago would appear in his mind. It was still really tragic, but it wasn’t as bad as today.

Bug Transformation was deactivated.

Lin Fan was still merged with Nine Demon but this merger allowed Lin Fan feel a totally different feeling.

Instantly, numerous black liquid flowed from Lin Fan’s body. It didn’t stick to any place or make his clothes dirty at all. At the same time, a black mist seeped out from within his body.

Not long later, Nine Demon appeared. He was perfectly fine. It was just that he was much weaker. Maybe he was just tired. After all, he didn’t have unlimited stamina like Lin Fan did.

Bug Controlling Technique’s special True Essence spread out to recuperate Nine Demon’s stamina. After a long while, Nine Demon slowly recovered.

“Young Master Lin, is this Insect Valley’s Bug Controlling Technique? Also, this Nine Demon is a really amazing species, but he is a little different from the mother.” Zhu Shen said. He had seen the mother before and she was terrifyingly strong. Only the Insect Valley Master could own her.

Lin Fan smiled and was really calm. He didn’t really care about what Zhu Shen said about the son being different from the mother. He had never seen the mother before but wasn’t too curious about her either.

“Zhu Shen, would you be able to turn back into a human in the future?”

He was curious about how Zhu Shen would turn into that.

A person had become a pig out of nowhere. This change was just huge. If he hadn’t personally witnessed it, he really wouldn’t have dared to believe it.

It was just too shocking.

Zhu Shen shook his head regretfully and was a little bitter, “I don’t know but I don’t think it is possible. However, it doesn’t matter. As long as my cultivation is still here and I can kill the Alliance, then it is fine. Now, Master Lin told us to hide to wait for an opportunity.”

As for that opportunity, it referred to the time when the top sects would fight back. The Alliance Headquarters wouldn’t give those top sects a good time and would definitely try to take them down.

Actually, the top sects definitely thought about this point but each of them had their own dreams. At the same time, they had faith in their own ability and thought that since the sects were strong, the Alliance wouldn’t find trouble for no reason. Or, that there were too many top sects and even if there were problems, they wouldn’t be the ones affected.

Lin Fan didn’t know what Zhu Shen was thinking about. He had transformed into a pig and was still able to be so calm about it.

He was filled with respect.

He really respected him.

He also realized that Zhang Tianshan was sitting there silently, “Oi, what are you thinking about? Things have already happened, so there is no use to thinking about it.”

Zhang Tianshan laughed bitterly. “Haiz, I know that it is useless but I am just unwilling. We fought with our lives to stop them while the rest just looked on from the back. They knew how dangerous the Alliance was, but for their own interests, they were willing to take a gamble.”

“This is their choice. In the future, these top sects will be enemies. We will beat whoever we see and there will be no room for reconciliation at all.” Lin Fan said.

Zhu Shen said, “Beat? Young Master Lin, didn’t you say that it is their choice? Why did they suddenly become enemies?”

Lin Fan said, “Becoming enemies is my choice. I don’t care whether or not they have animosity towards me; I say that they do so they do. After the battle, I comprehended some things, so I am going to cultivate. You all pay attention to the situation. Nine Demon, lay down and don’t cause any commotion.”

Nine Demon just laid there in a well-behaved manner.

After cultivating to Dao Realm, the small support system changed, but at that time, he didn’t have free time to study it.

Now that time had passed, it was time for him to research.

Looking closely, there had been many changes.

Dao Body: Dao Realm Stage One Dao Pattern Realm (6 external Daos)

Dao Essence: Dao Realm Stage One Dao Pattern Realm (4 internal Daos)

Heart Cultivation:…

Cultivation technique:…

Secret Technique: Blood Demon Reversal Technique.

Dao Pattern: 73

Merge: Nil

Rage points: 20,355

The overall change wasn’t huge but there were indeed some changes. At the same time, the merge thing that appeared was probably the merging of cultivation techniques.

“Interesting, I need to really study it properly.”

Both God Body and True Essence had changed and the values had disappeared.

Heart Cultivation had produced six Dao patterns and True Essence produced four. Along with the 63 from cultivation techniques he had 73 in total.

For him to become so strong just after stepping into Dao Pattern Stage One obviously had something to do with the Dao Patterns.

….

Wu Zhige and Zhu Daoshen fled from You City. Although they had broken through You City, the Alliance suffered huge losses. They returned to the main camp and reported right away.

When the Alliance Headquarters found out, they exploded.

They had sent 38 nine-star generals but only two returned. Damn, why didn’t the two of them go and die too?

Although six of them belonged to Hell Mountain and Ocean Emperor Island, 30 nine-star Alliance generals had died. Two of them were also among the strongest of the nine-star generals.

This was a huge loss that the Alliance Headquarters couldn’t bear.

The only thing they could be happy about was the fact that You City had been broken into but the price to pay was just too huge. It was so huge that the Alliance found it to be too much for them,

They thought that they would have to sacrifice many people but they didn’t expect it to be this many.

“Damn.” Zhu Daoshen’s face flushed red and he really wanted to return to kill them all. However, he knew that they had reached their limit. As for telling other experts to head to You City, it was impossible. After all, they wouldn’t be waiting there and would have left long ago.

“Wu Zhige, if you hadn’t been united, the outcome would have been different.”

Zhu Daoshen turned his rage over to Wu Zhige.

Wu Zhige was infuriated by Zhu Daoshen’s words. Damn, can you feel some shame at least?

Things had already happened and now he was trying to push the blame away. He was just so shameless.

Naturally, the two of them started to argue with one another.

When they found out that the natives had broken into the defense cities, their hearts were dripping with blood.

The price was just too huge.

It was so huge that it felt like their chests were being squeezed and they weren’t able to breathe at all.
