Chapter 2234: Proposal (3)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Feng Zhan witnessed the destruction of his family. He steeled his heart not to side with his family, choosing survival over fighting to the death. But it was still hard to watch how the Feng Family’s main force was helpless against seven spirits and three Heavenly Beasts. He mistook the two skeletons for the spirits.

Feng Zhan told himself to watch everything to the end as he considered this was his sin to bear. He would take the mantle next to lead the younger generation to a different future while ensuring they didn’t know who killed their parents and uncles.

It was cruel, but it was for their survival. The shocking thing was his brother. How his brother, the patriarch of the Feng Family, fared against the spirit, yet his brother was helpless.

It was a fair fight, the red-skinned monster against his brother, one against one without the other spirits’ interference. At first, it looked like his brother had the advantage, but he was wrong. The monster probed his brother, pushing his brother to the limit before fighting seriously when his brother was helpless.

It was not a fight but a slaughter. The force that was considered a major force in the Sacred Realm was nothing against the Executive Administrator. This was the reality between the Sacred Realm and the God Realm. A sad reality was that the Sacred Realm would not be able to fight against the outsider unless it accepted the System.

He made such a proposal before, which led to his exile in the God Realm. His brother put him to watch the God Realm, but it was actually an exile. His brother was afraid that he would influence the younger generation with his radical idea about accepting the system.

It convinced Feng Zhan that he must persuade the younger generation to accept the system. The gap between them and the outsider was too big. Of course, he could make an excuse that they were fighting against an Executive Administrator, but in reality. Some people were compared to the Executive Administrator.

Fire spread out, structures were in ruin, and the ground was scorched and frozen at the same time. On the other side, it was engulfed by a dark shadow where he heard screams from the shadow, but he could not see what was happening inside.

Feng Zhan had to remind himself of the scene, a reminder of the overwhelming gap between the Feng Family and Tang Shaoyang’s summons. It was just a summons; the Executive Administrator hadn’t stepped up himself.

There was also the thing called Bloodline Transformation and Domain on top. As far as he knew, Tang Shaoyang didn’t use everything. It was all his summons’ doing. The man didn’t move an inch outside the city, and his family’s main force was wiped out.

He was convinced that the younger generation must accept the system, and it reminded him of Tang Shaoyang’s offer. The Sacred Realm rejected the system; they destroyed most of the system’s buildings, which were called the smart base. The place for them to get access to talent and other stuff, including raw materials, with system currency.

Of course, the most important was talent. It gave attributes, and the good one gave an innate ability. Attributes were the same as body cultivation, cultivating their bodies, and in fact, attributes were more than just that because they also had Magic Power.

Magic Power would open a second energy source called Energy Whirlpool. Similar to dantian, but it was energy to power up the skills, which are also part of the System. While it was hard to determine which one was better, both had their own pros and cons.

Skills were more convenient as they could instantly learn them, but skills lacked the flexibility of cultivation techniques, and there was also a cooldown for most of the skills.

Based on his personal experience, combining technique and skills was the optimal route. He killed people with a combination of skills and technique. There was a time when he explored the dungeon or even paid to enter the God Rank Dimensional Tower, where he had to fight fellow God Ranks. His technique allowed him to catch his opponent off guard.

Feng Zhan recognized it would not work against Tang Shaoyang because he could sense that Tang Shaoyang was also a cultivator, a strong one. The realization made him consider the offer.

Tang Shaoyang must have those smart bases, and he could use them for the Feng Family’s younger generation. As Tang Shaoyang said, those children didn’t need to know who killed their parents and grandparents. It was enough for him alone to bear the sins and guilt.

As he came up with a decision, the battle was over. The fight was over half an hour ago when his brother’s chest was split by the red-skinned monster. The remaining half hour was spent cleaning up and cleaning the people who still resisted.

One thing he realized was that the spirits kept the bodies intact. That reminded him that Tang Shaoyang took the Grand Elder’s body he killed. The Executive Administrator had a use for the dead bodies, and he realized that these bodies would be taken as well.

"Do you change your mind?"

Feng Zhan snapped toward the voice, only to see Tang Shaoyang wearing a plain wooden mask. He had evacuated the children, the maids, and the elderly.

"I..."

His heart told him to refuse the offer. It would be his torture to work under the person who destroyed his family. His rational mind and survival instinct tell him to accept the offer.

"I can still give you a little more time since I have to collect my loot..."

As Feng Zhan predicted, the dead bodies of the Feng Family’s cultivators disappeared one by one, including his brother.

Tang Shaoyang met the phoenix, having a short conversation before the phoenix guided the Executive Administrator to their special training ground. There seemed to be an argument between the phoenix because he sensed the phoenix’s fire flared.

It was just for a moment, as not long after, Tang Shaoyang and the phoenix emerged from the Feng Family’s ruined castle. Not long after, the skeleton and the heavenly beast, along with two demonic beasts, disappeared. The red-skinned monster also disappeared, leaving the two beauties behind Tang Shaoyang.

That was when Feng Zhan realized that the three Heavenly Beasts were actually a spirit as well.

"Have you made up your mind? I need your answer because I need some arrangement. If you decide to join the Tang Empire, then you will have two choices. The first choice is to be the Tang Empire’s direct vassal, and the second choice is to join the Thousand Vows Pavilion."
