251: Xihe, get it clear, we don't need you at all

Xiao Fan heard clearly, but being drunk, he was in a daze and had no emotional reaction.

Meng Tianzong’s face was covered with a thick shoe print. He chuckled foolishly, “It’s really nothing big. The Great General still has a younger son.”

“Isn’t my whole family, except for me, dead here?”

“Brothers, is there anyone among you whose family hasn’t died?”

The Zhenshan Troops laughed and agreed.

Xiao Fan, in his hazy state, seemed to hear the people in the tavern competing over whose family had more dead members, as if it were some kind of honor.

Aya, who was beside him, changed from indignation to a complex and lost expression, because, in the end, she was the one with the best fate. Although her parents were old, they were still alive. Although her grandfather died in battle, he was also nearing the end of his life at the time and chose to unleash the last brilliance of his life on the battlefield.

She was the least qualified person to speak.

The warriors in the tavern laughed, but in the end, some began to cry, and others cursed loudly. The ancestors of the foreign races, all eighteen generations, did not escape their wrath. In their eyes, the women of the foreign race’s families were inevitably prostitutes, even from a young age!

They roared, venting the hatred in their hearts, completely destroying and tearing apart the already sufficiently broken wooden tables and chairs.

This scene was playing out in countless taverns throughout Shanhai Pass.

The greatest meaning of happy hour was to vent the emotions accumulated in their hearts.

When they woke up, all their frustrations would have eased, and they would continue to kill enemies as usual.

Once upon a time.

Aya had asked the Great General, “The Xi Chu Overlord and Martial Emperor have all gone out into the Star Sea, why don’t you go out? General Ke Huaimin can take your place.”

The Great General replied, “The Star Sea is not so easy to leave. The Xi Chu Overlord and Martial Emperor were able to leave back then due to some unforeseen circumstances, but those have nothing to do with me.”

“Even if I could leave, I wouldn’t go.”

“Almost my entire family is buried here.”

“How can I leave without killing all the foreign races?”

Whether the Great General’s Divine Intent had dissipated, no one knew.

However, anyone with a discerning eye could perceive that the Great General’s Divine Intent had changed before and after the chaotic war.

Back then, the Great General’s Divine Intent was sky blue; it was a Divine Intent that guarded the nation.

Now, however, it was completely deep black, due to hatred!

…

Amidst the noisy Qi of Shanhai Pass, there was also a place of deathly silence.

Xi He was still hanging on the execution platform. After so many days, her robes were completely covered in congealed blood, and her hair was matted with dirt blown by the wind and sand, making it messy and filthy.

She still kept her head down, her long hair covering her face, so no one could clearly see her expression.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew across the giant cross.

Jiang Shenyi, holding a bowl of yellow wine, sat quietly beside Xi He, gazing into the distance.

“The scenery here is not bad, is it?”

Xi He lowered her head and remained silent.

Jiang Shenyi didn’t care, and chuckled to himself, “Oh, by the way, this great Dao beneath your feet, we call it the Sunset Dao.”

“The meaning is that every frontier warrior is as dazzling as the sun, but the sun also sets.”

“It fits quite well with your self-proclaimed title of Sun God.”

Xi He remained silent, not even knowing if she was awake or unconscious.

At this moment, Jiang Shenyi suddenly said, “Actually, you also know that we can’t really kill you.”

“Once Ying Zheng comes out and earns two million merit points, he should be able to redeem you.”

Upon hearing this, Xi He suddenly looked up. Through her thick black hair, her eyes appeared, and her originally proud pupils were now trembling slightly.

Her gaze was like that of a disheveled beggar who had won a grand prize.

Jiang Shenyi glanced at Xi He, his eyes full of confusion, and said, “How strange.”

“How could such a look appear on you?”

“Rumor has it that Xi He is a very proud person, isn’t she?”

“I thought you would curse me and say things like a scholar can be killed but not humiliated.”

“Now, why do you look like… a beggar?”

Hearing this, Xi He twitched the corner of her mouth and said disdainfully, “Aren’t you just relying on being stronger than me?”

“Humiliate me if you want, I don’t care.”

Jiang Shenyi frowned and said, “So, until now, you still haven’t realized where you went wrong?”

“Where did I go wrong?” Xi He said coldly, “So what if I teamed up with Apollo? I wouldn’t harm their lives!”

“Then wouldn’t they?” Jiang Shenyi’s voice turned cold as he retorted.

“Do you think the situation in Tianlei City at that time was something a Little Grandmaster like you could control?”

“Moreover, Heavenly Rainbow Martial Emperor never said that the Legacy had to be given to anyone. Why do you think it must be given to you?”

Xi He said indifferently, “Because my talent is unparalleled, I am the Incarnation of the Planet Will.”

“All the powerful strength should be given to me. In the future, I will kill Imperial Rank foreign races like slaughtering dogs.”

“I admit, you are ruthless, but humiliating me and suppressing me will only result in your own loss in the end.”

“You nailed me up, not just because I teamed up with Apollo, right?”

“You make me look at the dead people of Shanhai Pass every day, isn’t it just to make me feel a sense of belonging to the Human Race?”

“Foolish behavior.”

“I will only hate the Human Race!”

Looking at those crimson eyes, Jiang Shenyi said disdainfully, “First of all, what if you hate the Human Race?”

“Do you think that once you grow up, you can do whatever you want?”

“What if I tell you that Xiao Fan also carries the Planet Will?”

Hearing this, Xi He’s expression changed slightly, and she said, “How is that possible!?”

Jiang Shenyi did not explain, and then said indifferently, “Then let me tell you again, the reason why there are so many Myth-Grade individuals in this generation is because they all carry the blessing of the Planet Will?”

“Extinction King, Fate, Lawful Utterance, Xi Chu Overlord—these once top-tier talents, even talents that have never appeared before, all emerged in this generation. Why?”

“Why do you think you are unique?”

Upon hearing these secrets, Xi He’s expression became even uglier.

Jiang Shenyi suddenly sneered, “Actually, the first time I saw you, I knew you were a very weak person.”

“Because your pride is hollow.”

“The reason you are proud is because of your talent, your innate powerful abilities. When these things can no longer be your safe haven, or even no longer something you uniquely possess, will you still be proud?”

Jiang Shenyi glanced at Xi He. At this moment, Xi He had lowered her head again, clenching her fists tightly.

At this moment, Jiang Shenyi once again rubbed salt into her wound.

“You take yourself too seriously and don’t take others seriously enough.”

“It doesn’t matter whether you can grow up or not. Anyway, Xiao Fan has already shown the potential to deal with two people of your level. What’s more, we still have Wukong, and on the foreign race’s side, there are Zeus, Lilith, and Apollo—three against three, just right.”

“Xi He.”

“The reality is.”

“We don’t need you at all. As long as we keep you locked up and find a way to extract your Planet Will in the future, you will have no value.”
