Chapter 654: Appraisal and PreparationTranslator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations
Bai Di shook his head, “Previously, I only wanted to become a recluse, staying in the mountains and not wanting to fight for the position of the leader. However, considering how turbulent the current world is, there’s a need for someone to step forth and save the world. At a glance, most of the people in the world aren’t able to accomplish anything.
“The Krieg royal family is selfish by nature and they extort heavy taxes from the people.
“There is endless internal strife within the Church of Universal Truth, and no one person with foresight.
“The Mage Association is savage and inhuman, and incapable of bringing good fortune to the world.
“As for the other useless people, they aren’t even worth a mention. They’ll probably all be wiped out and turned into dust with the arrival of the onslaught.”
The beautiful lady asked, “Dongfang Ling has exceptional talent and will probably attain the Divine level soon. Is he no good either?”
Bai Di shook his head, “He’s but a martial arts maniac and it would be quite difficult to raise him into a great figure. There’s a limit to how far he can go.”
The beautiful lady asked again, “What about that Fang Xingjian who killed Xia, defeated the Blue Sacred Moonlight and crippled the First Prince? Despite his young age, he’s already at the second tier of the Divine level. Is he considered a hero with great achievements?”
“He is one who exhausts all resources to build up power, making enemies everywhere, and he has no foundations at all. Although he does appear to be very impressive, he is actually in an unstable state and on the verge of collapse.”
The beautiful lady then asked curiously, “Then what about the First Prince? Among those of the younger generation, he was the first to attain the Divine level, and although he has been crippled by Fang Xingjian, he can be said to be even more unfathomable. He puts in great effort in his cultivation every day and has not sunk into despair despite taking such a huge plunge from the very top. A mind like his is extremely terrifying.”
“With the world’s metamorphosis, all the experts in the world are progressing at a tremendous rate. George has lost. He has fallen behind. No matter what he does, he won’t be able to hide this fatal flaw. Among all the heroes in the world, from the moment he was crippled by Fang Xingjian he had already fallen in the rankings.”
Bai Di then shook his head and sighed, “Due to this, I have no other option but to step up and take on the role.”
The middle-aged man said, “Sir has a great sense of righteousness. The fate of all lives in the world rests in your hands.”
The beautiful lady looked at Bai Di with a brilliant glow in her eyes. She sighed and thought of how in another three days, the world’s history would change. To be able to witness the rise of a legend was truly her greatest fortune.
The middle-aged man asked, “I wonder when the six Old Ancestors will be coming back.”
“With the seven great clans forming an alliance, we’ll become a force that can stir up the world. Master and my adoptive fathers will definitely come back,” Bai Di said. “If they’re early, they should be arriving today. Otherwise, it’ll be three days later, on the day when the alliance is formed. They’ll definitely come back for this.”
…
At the same time, in an unknown underground cave.
The Night Massacre Clan’s head opened his eyes, still reflecting the pain that he had suffered before his death. Now that he had suddenly woken up, he asked in a daze, “I’m still alive?”
He lifted his head and saw that Jacob, as well as the heads of the Illusory Clan, Fervent Dragon Clan, Thunder King Clan, and Dark Shadow Clan were all smiling at him. He asked, “We’re all dead?”
“We died, but we’ve been revived. However, we should still consider it as us being dead,” replied the Illusory Clan’s head. “We were killed by Fang Xingjian, but Alexander used his great arts to look for our personal information from the ether particles, reforming our wills.”
The Dark Shadow Clan’s head added, “Thereafter, the Black Mage King personally performed a level 12 black magic spell to create new bodies for us, reassembling our physical bodies.”
With two great experts having performed their secret arts concurrently, this could no longer be considered a revival, but rather new individuals that had been endowed with the memories of the five clan heads.
As for whether these newly created people with their memories would still resemble the five clan heads, this was a philosophical question. No one present cared about it.
Hearing that the Black Mage King and Alexander had performed their secret arts together, the Night Massacre Clan’s head exclaimed, “They’ve joined forces?”
