Chapter 993: Chapter 993 - 443: Green Demon Arc – Dawn (6)

Lord Lan slightly waved his hand.

He leaned closer to the Green Demon and spoke calmly.

"Every demon who can enter this hiding place has played an important role and proven their loyalty."

"If you want your brothers to also enter this temporary safe haven, let him contribute and prove his loyalty."

The Green Demon looked up, bewildered.

"Lord Lan, what should my brother do?"

"I remember that the brother you mentioned is the Blood Demon, right? Hasn’t he already infiltrated to become Captain of the Foolish Underworld? Just as well, we had previously planned to assassinate the Hall Master of the Foolish Underworld, let him carry out this task alone."

"If successful, I will give him a spot, allowing him to safely hide here until the moment of the grand scheme."

Assassinate the Hall Master?!

The Green Demon’s expression changed.

The risk, it’s extraordinary!

"Lord Lan!"

"I’m tired, all of you may leave."

"...Yes!"

As the Green Demon and Shu Bird Demon were about to leave, Lord Lan, still facing away from them, suddenly spoke again.

"Remember, this is his own choice, you cannot help him. Once inside, you cannot leave at will. Shu Bird Demon must have informed you, right?"

The Green Demon naturally understood this principle.

Even for Shu Bird Demon as the Demon Leader to go outside, he had to seek permission from Lord Lan, which shows the level of confidentiality Lord Lan has maintained here.

Any demon going outside could potentially reveal the location, and this potential must be minimized to the lowest level.

Everything, for the grand plan.

But...

Upon leaving Lord Lan’s laboratory, the Green Demon immediately said.

"Shu Bird Demon, if the Blood Demon is unwilling to perform the task, then I... will leave this hiding place!"

Shu Bird Demon slightly shook his head.

"Since you already know the location of this place, we can’t possibly let you leave. Don’t have this thought anymore, or it will be difficult for me."

"But!"

"The Blood Demon is hiding outside, perhaps it’s safer, and if he’s willing to perform the task, we’ll provide some level of support. Actually, the risk isn’t that great!"

Really? The Green Demon doubted.

But letting the Blood Demon continue to stay outside will eventually lead to him being discovered and killed by humans!

This spot, he must help the Green Demon secure!

"If the Blood Demon is willing to perform the task, I will personally step in, exert all efforts to attract attention, and assist him in completing the task!"

"There’s no problem with that."

...

Research Demon Mansion, underground laboratory.

"You mean... as long as I find my missing brother with the same bloodline origin, and the same bloodline origin as Second Sister, you can activate Second Sister’s consciousness? Separate Second Sister from my body?"

Ding Hui nodded emphatically.

"Yes! I can do it!"

Her heart was racing; she knew Fang Yu was aware of her fast-beating heart, which was due to nervousness and to some extent deceit.

But, it was only to some extent!

As long as she’s given time, given samples, given space to research, she is confident she can achieve this!

"..."

"..."

In this moment, neither spoke; after a long silence, Fang Yu suddenly sighed deeply.

"You know... I don’t have a choice."

"Trust me, Diao Deyi, trust me once more! Can you?"

"...I am, left with no choice but to trust you."

Fang Yu rubbed his headache.

To find the eldest brother, it’s first clear that he is definitely not in Tianyuan Town, because Fang Yu had investigated inside and outside countless times for this matter.

After all, Second Sister has always been attentive to this matter.

Slightly there is a direction.

But the premise of everything is first finding a way out of Tianyuan Town.

Right now, Tianyuan Town is shrouded in some Tianyuan Array, preventing everyone from leaving, so the immediate problem is how to escape and prepare enough resources, ready to leave anytime.

"Ding Hui, you make preparations, gather light supplies of medicine and provisions, and wait for my message at home. When the time is right, I’ll come for you, and we’ll leave Tianyuan Town together."

Ding Hui smiled.

It was a heartfelt, joyful smile, a rare radiant smile since the rainy night.

She nodded strongly.

"Mm!"

"I will, always! Always wait for you!"

Tong Tong’s spirited gaze fixed on him, making Fang Yu feel a bit uneasy, thoughts flashing of Ding Hui’s words.

...Caring... No, now is not the time to think about these.

Taking a deep breath, Fang Yu shifted his focus to the more real problem.

Now, there’s a direction for Second Sister’s rescue.

What remains is finding a way to revive Sister Jin.

Brother Qing’s Life Seed must be secured by him.

For this... even if it means sacrificing a group of people, he wouldn’t hesitate!

What humans, what living beings...

This world, contains scum!

This world, not everyone is worth saving!

I’m not a savior, not inheriting Sister Jin’s last wishes, not saving the world...

All are false, all are results of self-escape, self-brainwashing to avoid the fact Sister Jin died because of him!

Yes, it’s escaping...

What value life holds, in the face of life and death, could I really not kill?

At most, knowing the truth of the world, I might show more mercy.

I am just an ordinary person, no longer using righteousness, not using savior’s rhetoric to numb myself.

All I can do is protect those around me!

Previously, without hope, it was fine, numbing myself, trying to seem like some great figure.

But it’s not like that...

What I’ve always wanted is simply... to protect Sister Jin, protect Second Sister, protect Brother Qing, Ding Hui... lead an ordinary life!

"Within my power."

"What?" Ding Hui was startled.

"Now, I want to do everything within my power!"

From small things to big things!

Tianyuan Town is too vast for me to rescue.

But Sister Jin and Second Sister, I can save them both, I surely will! If I can’t even save them, what talk is there of saving the whole world, preventing apocalypse?

In Ding Hui’s puzzled eyes, Fang Yu has already turned away.

Compared to before, Fang Yu’s gaze became more resolute, his steps more stable.

Perhaps, I will save the world, but that’s only after I’ve done what I can.

Perhaps, I will save people, but they must be worth saving.

Perhaps, I will kill, but that must be killing the deserving!

Step!

His foot steps on the stone slab outside the Foolish Underworld, Fang Yu looked toward the rising sun in the distance.

At this moment, Fang Yu’s heart was no longer confused.

What must be done, what I want to do, all lies before me, he simply needs to carry out step-by-step!
