Chapter 391 - A Cruel Plan (2/2)

Except for Bai Jun, the other four patriarchs exchanged a glance and then all nodded.

“Alright. I have just told Bai Jun about this. He has agreed to it. We have to choose 64 of our best men and offer them to our god.”

All the other four patriarchs looked stunned, except for Bai Jun, who knew it before.

Xiao Bing was also stunned into disbelief, as he heard it from behind the door. They were even planning to sacrifice their own kind. “What kind of monsters are they!”

Red Rose blazed, “Why? Are the tonics not enough? King Mamba, I heard that you have captured a human who has God’s Blood. It is not enough if we use him as a tonic?”

“This is madness. If you cannot convince us, we will not agree to this.” They did not like this plan. After all, he was asking for the sacrifice of their own kind. Though they were all as cruel as snakes, they could not accept the killing their own kind.

Feng XIII sighed and said, “I don’t want this either. But I have been thinking about the reasons for our failures. We have done the ceremony so many times, but none of them succeeded. We have sent out men to the outside world to acquire their martial arts and join the Buddhism to find out if there are humans who are the descendants of god. We have been preparing for this day. Not only did we capture human masters as our tonics, we also seized a man with God’s Blood. If we fail this time, we might never succeed. Everything must be perfect this time.”

“I have been contemplating the reasons for our former failures, and I believe that many powerful masters of our serpent clan must be offered, so that the power of our god and the human god will bring him back to life!”

Feng XIII said with a stern face, “If we fail this time, we might never get an opportunity like this anymore. So everything must be perfect this time!”

Red Rose said hotly, “But we can’t risk the lives of our people!”

Red Rose found Bai Jun as calm as a mirror, when she said it. But the other three patriarchs looked hesitant, seemingly convinced. Red Rose suddenly rose and said, “What are you thinking of? They are our brothers and sisters. I suppose you all know that.”

The Fifth Patriarch Yu Ban looked at Red Rose and said, “My lady, I believe that if it can increase the possibility, at least we should try.

Red Rose’s face turned purple with rage. Snake Ba said, “Calm down, it’s all for the resurrection of our god.”

The other patriarchs seemed to have thought it through after Snake Ba said it.

Feng XIII said, “Please calm down. We have to do it. There’s no other way.”

“There’s no other way? There’s no other way?” Her voice got higher and higher. “We all have to stay here if we cannot revive our god. Why can’t we leave this place and enter the human world？We need to revive our god so that we can leave this place?”

Feng XIII said in a stern voice, “Don’t you know what we are in the eyes of the humans? If they know about our existence, they will see us as monsters and exterminate us. They have numerous powerful masters and many of them are even stronger than me. My human Master, Mr. Buddha and the mysterious leader of Dragon Gate… All of them are unfathomable. Besides they are scientifically advanced. If we enter their world, will we survive?”

Red Rose cried, “But that doesn’t mean we should sacrifice so many of our people!”

Red Rose saw the aloofness on their faces. There were many feelings in her eyes, “anger, disappointment, self-condemnation, hatred… She nodded her head and said, “We call ourselves gods, but the outsiders call us demons. I agree with the humans. I’m cold-blooded and very cruel, and you are even more so… It’s not humans that are terrifying. It’s you…”

“How ridiculous it is. You said that we cannot leave this place because humans are evil. It’s a lie told over and over again. We imprisoned ourselves here and we think it’s because of humans. I don’t agree with it and you will not have my consent to this plan of yours!”

Feng XIII’s pupils contracted. He cast a glance at Bai Jun and said, “Please talk to her.”

Bai Jun looked at Red Rose and said, “My lady, it’s already decided. So if you’re not going to help, you can just stand and watch.”

“What if I say I won’t allow it?”

Bai Jun said, “Most of us have voted already. Your opinion will not change anything.”

Red Rose cast a sweeping glance at their faces. No one supported her. For them, as long as their god could be revived, it did not matter who made the sacrifice.

Red Rose nodded and said, “Fine, I see it now… I won’t vote. I’ll walk out of this room and tell them what you really are. You are not doing it for the sake of our clan. You’re doing it because you’re selfish. How cold-blooded you are. As long as I’m drawing breath, your plan will never succeed.”

Then Red Rose strode towards the door. Bai Jun quietly stood up, staring at her back.
