365: knew

The Priest and Helden charged out of the Star Sea simultaneously, into the boundless Universe.

A great battle was on the verge of breaking out!

The Sword of Space clashed with the Blood King Sword.

The Priest felt that there was something wrong with this Blood King Sword, but he didn't think much of it, because he had more important things to ask.

He said in a deep voice, "When I first arrived on the battlefield, I noticed that the curved horn Xiao Fan was using had a power I had never seen before."

"Is the Ghost Race an alien species?"

"Yes." Helden nodded slightly.

After exchanging a blow, both of them flew backward, then continued to draw their swords!

The Priest said in a deep voice, "The Super God Class and the Demon King Group ended up like this today, was it all planned by you behind the scenes?"

"Just to confirm the Ghost Race's issue?"

"That's right." Helden still nodded.

"Why did the Ghost Race suddenly possess this power? Is it related to the Will that Xiao Fan attracted back then?"

Helden replied, "Not necessarily."

"Back then, the Planet Will erased the memories of all alien species, perhaps this memory has always been preserved in the Bloodline of those races. Previously, the Planet Will consumed too much energy helping Xiao Fan resist that attack and fell into a deep sleep."

"It might be that the Seal has loosened, or it might be information transmitted by that demigod, or it might be that they remembered some things already."

The Priest nodded slightly and said, "The reason you kept delaying the war wasn't to wait for the Demon King Group to grow, but to find out those variables?"

Helden shook his head and said, "Half and half."

"The growth of the Demon King Group is indispensable. Yun Jinyu and Zeus, two people who can complete the Law, are of self-evident importance to us."

"Next, you need to have Chen Changsheng keep a close eye on Yun Jinyu, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be variables on the Human Race's side as well."

"If there are, their first action will be to kill Yun Jinyu!"

"Good." The Priest nodded and said in a deep voice, "Now, besides the Ghost Race, which other races can be confirmed to have awakened their memories?"

"Awakening memories is not the point." Helden shook his head and said, "The point is which side their stance is on."

"Kill them all!" The Priest snorted coldly.

"But... perhaps the Blood Race and the Demon Clan could both be extraterrestrial beings?" Helden's voice held a hint of helplessness.

"How is that possible, two of the three great races are outsiders?" The Priest frowned.

Helden calmly said, "It should be so. The talent of alien beings is inherently higher than that of native beings. A full thousand years have passed. It's not strange that they could grow into the three great races."

"These alien beings are not on the same front; they also have competition among themselves."

"The Ghost Race has already paid a great price. They will not step forward again; they will wait for the next alien species to make a move."

"Now, with Xiao Fan's feigned death, the greatest threat to them has 'disappeared'."

"Those variables will definitely reveal themselves one by one and push the war forward."

The Priest narrowed his eyes. He probably knew about the Planet Will, alien beings, and other such things, which were closely related to when the Overlord and the Patriarch left the Star Sea.

But...

"Why are they targeting Xiao Fan? Because of that Fire, right? What is that?"

Helden shook his head and said, "Regarding this, the Planet Will didn't tell me much. She only told me that that wisp of Fire is related to the resurgence of source Qi in the Galaxy. And that wisp of Fire seems to be called the Fire of Sin in the Universe."

"These messages were told to me by Ah Le."

"Now, all civilizations in the Universe have completely sealed off all information about that Fire. That period of history is called the Lost Fifty Years."

"Ah Le... how is he? Is he still alive?" the Priest asked.

The Priest was very concerned about Ah Le.

Because he was the Patriarch's biological son.

Helden said in a deep voice, "Ah Le inherited the Time Law, so he should be fine, but the last time he sent a message back was fifty years ago."

The Priest sighed and shook his head again, saying, "Why Xiao Fan?"

When he chose Xiao Fan as his Disciple, the Fire of Resistance had not yet fallen upon him.

He didn't want his Disciple to bear that seemingly terrifying mission.

Because it was not only exhausting but also life-threatening.

On Blue Star, he could guarantee Xiao Fan's life, but outside this Planet, in the Universe, what could he, a person with not much lifespan left, do?

Helden said indifferently, "A wandering Dragon should return to the sea, there's no way around it."

"Someone like Xiao Fan would definitely not want you to sacrifice anything for him. He would feel indebted. It's better if you don't interfere and continue to let him grow freely."

The Priest nodded, then changed the subject, saying, "Is Youdu's life currently in your hands?"

"Yes, he probably won't react until he's fully recovered." Helden nodded.

An Emperor-level expert, suffering such a near-fatal injury, would not be Ah Le to fully recover in less than ten or eight years.

Finally, the Priest asked, "Roughly how many years are left?"

"At most five or six years. I went to the edge of the Galaxy two days ago, and the power of protection is getting weaker and weaker." Helden said indifferently.

"Do you have confidence that you can win?" the Priest frowned.

Helden looked at the Priest at this moment, his eyes calm, but his inner emotions were very complex.

Because, in his eyes, the Priest should be enjoying his retirement.

He shouldn't know about these things, nor should he participate.

He had already dedicated his life to peace.

"Of course I can win." Helden smiled slightly, an expression that rarely appeared on his face.

The Priest narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "What else are you hiding from me?"

"Are you saying I'm old? Can't lift a knife anymore?"

"You kid, you've always liked to keep things to yourself since you were little!"

"If you have any difficulties in the future, tell your godfather!"

Upon hearing this, Helden's body trembled uncontrollably, something that almost never happened to this King.

The Priest's face darkened slightly and he said, "What on earth is wrong?"

"No, nothing." Helden shook his head, still silent.

He didn't dare to tell the Priest his thoughts.

If Xiao Fan couldn't bear that heavy mission, he might kill Xiao Fan and take on the burden himself.

Perhaps there was also a way to keep Xiao Fan from dying.

But someone like Xiao Fan would definitely rather die than face himself having lost all his power.

But he could never forget.

That year, when he was three, his mother fell in a pool of blood.

The Priest and the Patriarch walked out of that dark alley, stained with blood, like two rays of light, illuminating this world.

They reached out their hands, giving his mother her last few years of life, and giving him a future, and also giving him a god-brother named Ah Le, and even giving him a father's love he had never experienced before.

"Everything will be fine." Helden smiled again.

The Priest snorted coldly, "If you don't want to say it, then don't!"

"Also, don't scheme against Xiao Fan again!"

"Although I know it's hard for you."

"But don't use Xiao Fan as a pawn."

"He's your Senior Brother!"

"What if something unexpected happens? Did you hear me?"

Helden quickly nodded and said, "Understood."
