Chapter 649: Chapter 363: Current Situation and Dilemma _2
At this moment,
Before Lu Yang’s eyes,
Those defeated minions did not reappear.
No enemies appeared afterward either.
It seemed like the number of troops in the previous encounter was their entire force.
This was inconsistent with the minions’ usual style.
Why was this?
Could it be that those minions before were deliberately sent to die?
Could it be…?
As if struck by a sudden thunderbolt.
A thought crossed his mind.
A guess emerged in his heart.
“You’re right.”
Zuo Wei’s voice timely sounded.
“The reason the minions cannot be revived is that we have cut off the connection between the inside and outside of the universe.”
“However, faced with a drawn-out stalemate, the minions have completely lost their patience.”
“They have sent a large number of troops.”
“Even…..the Commander is personally taking action.”
Commander?!
Just hearing the two words,
Lu Yang’s eyes instantly widened.
Although the minions’ camp served the Supreme Demon on the whole,
In actuality,
They were more like servants.
It could be said that almost all minions never had the opportunity to meet the Supreme Demon.
What they did was merely to dedicate everything they had to serving him.
But if it were asked,
Who among the minions was most likely to get in touch with the Supreme Demon?
It would have to be the four Commanders.
They were the most powerful beings in the minions’ camp.
Tens of thousands of years ago,
The Heavenly Beings’ King and others met Ligel, one of the four Commanders, in the form of a soul.
As for the specifics,
Lu Yang did not know.
He only knew that the four Commanders were far more powerful than he could imagine.
Even the three leaders of the Resistance Army could only flee before them.
If it were not for the fact that the few Commanders were in charge of the entire minions’ camp and had no time to take personal action,
Their so-called Resistance Army would have encountered total destruction at its very inception.
Even now,
The strength of the Resistance Army was already formidable.
But facing the Commander…
“Look.”
Just as Lu Yang was pondering,
The illusion before him changed again.
It wasn’t the minions reappearing.
But…
The once boundless starry river suddenly distorted.
A crack slowly appeared.
From an end that couldn’t be seen, stretching to another end that couldn’t be seen.
Afterward,
The crack kept expanding.
Until a gigantic eyeball completely occupied Lu Yang’s entire field of vision.
That was—
His breaths became more rapid.
Lu Yang’s body began to tremble, as if an invisible force was binding him and he couldn’t move.
How could he not recognize this eye,
One of the Commanders… Ligel.
He had actually descended directly into this universe!
“Let’s go.”
Just as Lu Yang was about to be paralyzed by Ligel’s intimidating presence,
Zuo Wei’s voice timely appeared.
Immediately after,
Everything around him began to quickly pass.
Within an instant,
Darkness descended once more.
The three leaders reappeared before Lu Yang.
“This is the reason.”
“Now, we have to gather all our strength to help the Jiuzhou World escape the pursuit and have no time to care about anything else.”
Zuo Wei sighed softly.
He did not say anything more.
The images from the not-so-distant past had shown the Resistance Army’s present situation.
He believed,
Having seen those images, Lu Yang should know what was at stake.
“…”
Lu Yang was silent.
After tens of thousands of years, witnessing Ligel’s overwhelming presence once more was no less shocking than when he had seen it in the memories of the Heavenly Beings.
Combined with his understanding of the Resistance Army’s grim situation, his mood was exceptionally heavy.
For a moment,
He was at a loss for words.
So,
After a long silence,
When Lu Yang looked up again, he found that Jiu Yang Zi and Li Mu Huang had disappeared unnoticed.
Only Zuo Wei remained, still sitting in his chair.
On his face,
Was an expression Lu Yang had never seen before.
It was not his usual gentle smile.
But a kind of indifference… and a lofty air.
Very unfamiliar.
He was brought into the Resistance Army by Zuo Wei and rising through the ranks step by step.
At the same time,
Lu Yang was also a staunch supporter of Zuo Wei.
The relationship between the two could be described as both mentor and friend.
Yet even so,
Lu Yang had never seen Zuo Wei show such an expression.
It seemed that only at this moment,
Did he appear like a leader of a power,
Rather than a kind and amiable elder.
“Lu Yang, I know you mean well for the Resistance Army.”
“Chen Sheng does indeed have an outstanding talent.”
“But you must understand,”
“People with talents like his are not rare in the long river of time.”
“It’s not that we can’t do without him.”
“It’s that without us, he will die.”
“Only those talents who can grow can truly be called prodigies.”
“Being arrogant with one’s talents and being willful,”
“Will ultimately be reduced to dust and be drowned in the worldly long river.”
“There are always choices to make in everything.”
“Giving up small gains for a greater good is a natural rule.”
“Please remember this.”
As his words fell,
Zuo Wei gave Lu Yang a deep look.
And then his figure vanished.
Only a ball of light slowly floated to Lu Yang.
Wihtin it was the final message left by Zuo Wei.
“In your name,”
“I will give you a small squad to command.”
“But I hope you remember what I said.”
“Don’t disappoint me.”
With that,
The darkness was completely enveloped in silence.
Lu Yang stood in place, his face changing.
After a long while,
He finally slowly exhaled a breath.
Towards the three chairs in front of him, he deeply bowed.
“Thank you, leader.”
As his words fell,
The surrounding darkness retreated like a receding tide.
His consciousness returned to his body.
Lu Yang was once again back in the Immortal State World.
