396: Strange Dreams

Li Fufeng simply left like that.

Xiao Fan stood silently in place, his expression complex.

A person who can be a general, his ability is truly extraordinary, beyond the heavens.

He must have reversed the flowing wind.

And it wasn't just a few seconds of reversal, but several minutes ago.

This kind of thing has no Martial Arts logic whatsoever; simply put, it's not scientific at all.

But if he controlled the Law of Wind, it seemed everything made sense.

This is what you call a great weapon!

Furthermore, from beginning to end, Li Fufeng gave him a very amiable and approachable feeling.

Completely non-aggressive.

There was an unreserved trust.

The relieved smile on his old face made one feel as if bathed in a spring breeze.

Xiao Fan even felt a bit embarrassed to raise his own defenses.

The key was that he even mentioned Chen Changsheng in the middle.

He said that Chen Changsheng had sent him a message, confirming that the waterfall was something left behind by an alien creature.

The implication was that he didn't need to trust Li Fufeng, just Chen Changsheng.

According to habit, he would definitely use every possible method to deduce whether Li Fufeng was a good person or a bad person.

But... he didn't know why, he just felt that these old people who had fought bloody battles for centuries in the borderlands possessed a strange magic that made him abandon all his defenses.

It was as if they had been waiting, waiting for him to appear, waiting for him to bear the banner of the Human Race's future.

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan shook his head.

He ultimately chose his killer instinct.

He picked up the lighter Chen Changsheng had used to burn the envelope earlier; it had a tiny colored button on it.

Pressing it would connect him to the other party.

Soon, he contacted Chen Changsheng.

He spoke about Li Fufeng.

"Don't worry, Li Fufeng can be completely trusted. He absolutely won't be detrimental to you."

"Then... do you know anything else about the sea gods heart? What exactly is its connection to alien creatures?"

"Only that it was left by a certain alien creature. Why it was left, why a heart was left, and what it will do in the future... the Planet Will didn't tell me. She only said that when the day the sea gods heart appears arrives, our helpers will begin to awaken."

"Helpers?" Xiao Fan was full of doubts.

"Helpers to help us fight against those alien creatures?"

"Exactly. That's why I kept telling you before not to feel pressured; we are not fighting alone."

Xiao Fan pondered for a moment, then frowned and asked, "But now, it's confirmed that only people under 20 years old can enter the sea gods heart. If they're only 20... how strong can these helpers be?"

"Who knows?" Chen Changsheng asked with a smile.

"Alright, I'm still busy."

"Hey, what have you been busy with lately?"

Chen Changsheng chuckled, "Me? What I'm doing now was already declared to the world when I was twenty years old."

"Ah?" Xiao Fan was startled.

"Alright, hanging up."

The communication was cut off.

Xiao Fan frowned, unable to suppress his curiosity, and immediately searched online.

"What did Chen Changsheng declare to the world when he was twenty years old?"

In just an instant, the results appeared.

Chen Changsheng: "In the future, I will definitely help the Human Race build a steel Great Wall that can resist all enemies!"

Xiao Fan slightly frowned. He remembered someone once told him that his elder brother, when he was young and hadn't learned how to use his talent yet, used to brag everywhere.

Now, he's going to make good on his boasts?

But the problem is, he's building a steel Great Wall for the Human Race... but he's not even on Blue Star right now.

Suddenly, Xiao Fan's pupils contracted sharply.

Perhaps, he wasn't just building a steel defense line for the Human Race.

He... was building that steel defense line for the entire Galaxy!

He also thought of another sentence.

His elder brother once told him.

"Miracles also have their missions."

Thinking of this, Xiao Fan felt inexplicably uneasy, but soon, the sound of a door opening indicated that Liu Yuan and the others had returned.

After Liu Yuan entered, he looked at Xiao Fan and smiled faintly, "Revered Master, are you cooking yourself today?"

Xiao Fan was still holding the ingredients he had bought at the seafood market, which still emitted a faint, unique fishy smell.

He nodded and said, "Yes, I'm cooking myself."

Soon, it was evening, and dinner was over.

Liu Yuan suddenly sought out his Revered Master, chatting in a quiet, empty room.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Fan frowned. During dinner, he had already felt that Liu Yuan was a bit strange today, as if he had something on his mind.

Now he was seeking him out to talk alone; had something happened?

Liu Yuan sighed and said, "Revered Master, recently... I've been having dreams."

"Actually, the dreams started a few months ago."

"It's just that these past few days, they've suddenly become particularly frequent."

"What's so surprising about having a dream?" Xiao Fan was full of confusion.

Liu Yuan, however, shook his head and said, "No, it's always the same dream, exactly identical, and... it seems to always be a nightmare."

"This dream is very terrifying, but also very real, especially after having it so many times, I... feel even more that this dream seems to foreshadow something."

Xiao Fan frowned and asked, "What did you dream about?"

Liu Yuan said in a deep voice, "It's a first-person perspective."

"In that perspective, I saw a very magnificent temple, with very complex and profound runes carved on its exterior."

"I later checked, and these inscriptions might be real, because the inscriptions our Human Race currently uses already have a hint of those runes."

"Furthermore, those runes were too terrifying; they emitted a very dazzling golden light. In the dream, there was a figure standing in the golden light, whose face I couldn't see clearly."

"But when facing that figure, I felt immense fear; my whole body was trembling with fear."

"Most importantly, the scene didn't just have you and me."

"Beside me, lay many, many figures. Almost all of them were severely wounded, and their injuries were so terrifying that it seemed those people would die the next second."

"Including me, in the dream, I also felt like even breathing was a problem, my heart was pounding, and my Soul felt as if it was about to be pulled out of my body."

"But none of us died, because there was still a figure standing in front of us, only a back view, very tall and majestic. In my eyes, he could simply be called towering over the heavens and earth."

"He alone faced that terrifying enemy hidden in the golden light, holding a long spear with black and red patterns all over its body in his palm."

"Most importantly, behind that figure, was a scarlet divine robe."

Speaking of this, Xiao Fan slightly clenched his fists.

He seemed to have already guessed what Liu Yuan was about to say next.

Liu Yuan then said, sounding incredulous himself, "That scarlet divine robe, its appearance was exactly the same as the divine robe Lord Yuan Emperor once displayed!"

"On the doomsday-like yellow earth, that scarlet divine robe fluttered in the strong wind that seemed capable of extinguishing the Soul."

"But in the end, that figure was defeated. That enemy seemed to possess omnipotent power, effortlessly wielding all attributes and elements, just like... the Dominator of the Universe."

"Then, that figure gave up on killing the enemy and turned to save people."

"The last image I saw was a... disheveled profile."

"That figure, wearing the scarlet divine robe, grabbed my hand and saved me, but he had already lost so terribly, he was so disheveled, yet on his face... he was smiling."

"Looking at that smile, I couldn't help but forget all my fear, and I even felt that no matter what happened in the future, everything was full of hope."
