Chapter 338 - Back Again (2/2)

One would not be nice to the person who had burned down their house. The only difference was that Wei Huo did not want to attack now. Otherwise, the leader and the others would have already been dead.

Wei Huo only wanted to observe for now. He had gotten used to observing for 50 years, but if the other party attacked, he would not mind retaliating.

The Atlantean leader was in a dilemma. He had thought of this possibility before coming, but he still had a glimmer of hope. He naively thought that borrowing a fleet like this would put pressure on the other party, but he had underestimated Wei Huo.

The leader said, “We come from the same race.”

Wei Huo said, “That’s why I didn’t attack. You should have retreated.”

The leader’s expression turned ugly. He turned around and shouted, “Ye Lan, Ye Hong, let’s go!”

Ye Lan hurriedly asked, “Leader, are we leaving now? Perhaps we can persuade him.”

The leader said, “There’s no need. I’ll come and seek advice after I break through to the peak of the Legendary stage!”

Wei Huo was unmoved. He closed his eyes and continued comprehending the Rules of Death.

The leader descended the mountain angrily. He had been gifted from a young age and was loved by thousands of people. Besides, he had worked very hard. When he was young, he had thought that he could become the first Mythical being in the clan. However, as his cultivation level had deepened and time had passed, he had thought that it would be good enough if he reached the peak of the Legendary stage.

It was only now that his cultivation had stagnated that he had stooped to begging Wei Huo. However, after he was rejected by Wei Huo, his arrogance returned.

If he broke through to the peak of the Legendary stage, why can’t I?

The leader said proudly, “Let’s go. I’ll come and ask for advice after I break through to the peak of the Legendary stage. Let’s see if he’ll give in then.”

The leader did not use the huge fleet. He thought that it was not worth it. The destructive power of the peak of the Legendary stage was too strong. Wei Huo could suppress the Atlantean soldiers with his aura alone. If he wanted to capture Wei Huo, his fleet would probably suffer heavy losses.

In that case, he might as well break through to the peak of the Legendary stage before challenging Wei Huo to a battle. That way, he could rely on his strength.

The Atlantean leader and the fleet left, allowing Wei Huo to calm down. Although meteors fell from time to time, they did not affect him.

However, as time passed, the leader did not break through to the peak of the Legendary stage. In order to replenish its resources, the fleet sent mining cars to Earth’s surface to mine and grow mining trees.

Large amounts of materials from the Earth Core were being thrown out along with the magma, so there were a lot of minerals around the volcano. Soul Refining Water was also everywhere. Wei Huo could not use it, but it was a treasure to the Atlanteans.

Due to the arrival of a large number of miners, small cities began to be built around the volcano. Like the land people, the Atlanteans also liked shiny things, so the gold was taken by them.

Gradually, the Atlanteans forgot that Wei Huo was still on the volcano. However, the volcano was already a restricted area. No one dared to enter, and the Atlantean leader did not issue a challenge. One day, a silver-white ship landed by the mouth of the volcano. An old Atlantean walked out of the ship under the protection of many Atlantean attendants. He looked at the volcano and sighed. “You’re back again!”
