Chapter 551: Visit (2/2)
Wang Ling was confident as he rejected the Origin General's offer. He knew all too well the risk of letting the bastard into his system, he already died once because of doing such a thing, ”I know your game, planting memories, erasing memories, manipulating others' thoughts and using that against them. I experienced that first hand… I'm not falling for that again.”
Wang Ling stood in the middle of space contemplating over his next move. He had little to no more weapon, and the last one he just used to be something he kept with him just in case and it was destroyed with a single swing.
The power of the All-Father allowed Wang Ling full control of things, but because of his lacking control, it was put to a bare minimum. Before him was the source of all suffering that must be eradicated in the name of peace. Wang Ling did not expect him to actually appear before him without any warnings.
He thought that it would be in the middle of the last war that he would meet the Origin General, but no, it was the opposite. He appeared when no one was around, when it was only the two of them were present, the complete and exact opposite… it was suspicious.
[He's an amalgamation of myself and an ancient figure… he's not someone to be trifled with. For eons he plotted and for the past 17,000 years he had been in control of things. His power and attribute are unknown to me, but he knows me more than I know myself… and everyone expects me to outsmart him and erase him from the face of the Universe.] Wang Ling couldn't get a read on the Origin General.
”Sigh, you really are one-tracked mind, aren't you, Wang Ling? Anyway, I already got what I came for, if you're wandering, I was only here to check up on you. I'll be going now, old friend.”
”What makes you think I'm going to let you go?” Wang Ling's killing intent surged and his body turned to that of a sword.
”I know you're going to let me go, that does not look good, after all.”
When Wang Ling turned around, he found heaps of Revenants and Abyssal Demons invading the Deity Paradise from the tear the Origin General exited from through the stable portal he himself created.
Wang Ling was conflicted but as his wings appeared from his back and the Origin General surfaced to back stab him, Wang Ling quickly returned to the Deity Paradise in order to protect its inhabitants.
Fwu!
He flapped his wings and disappeared into the Deity Paradise, closing the Portal on his way back, leaving the Origin General with a glowing sword, stained with blue marks, ”I only grazed him with the final swing, that's a shame. But this should also be enough of a test run.”
The Origin General swung his arm and opened an Abyssal Tear as he hummed, ”The Primordial Essence works like a charm. And with the blood, I should be able to restart the Homunculus Plan without a problem.”
Just before the Origin General disappears into the Abyss, he turned around into the now empty space, ”I'll free you soon.”
The Origin General won without Wang Ling even knowing.
