When Lu Fanghui said this, he was silent for a long time.

For a few seconds, he seemed as motionless as a statue.

There were intense ripples on the red wine he was holding.

It was like a miniature stormy sea had rolled up, showing that his heart was by no means peaceful.

"Strength, or the realm of cultivation, is a very objective thing that requires a lot of time, energy and cultivation resources to accumulate and maintain."

Lu Fanghui finally spoke, "When we waste a lot of time helping ordinary citizens repair houses, rebuild homes and plant crops, naturally we have no time to improve our own combat effectiveness.

"And when we obtained a large number of crystal stones, instead of refining them into genetic medicine for our own consumption to stimulate cell growth and break through the limits of life, we consumed precious cultivation resources on the old, weak, women and children, except for their own

Of course, nothing can be gained from inner gratitude and laughter.

“We didn’t realize this in the past.

"While our fathers and brothers and sisters who stayed in the nine major gangs seized every opportunity to plunder resources and practice crazily to become stronger and stronger, we self-righteous 'idealists' were actually of another kind.

The cold trumpeting bird in the form of a bird is complacent in its superficial "kindness" and "justice" that is obsessed with details, but it does not realize that the deadly cold winter is quietly coming.

"Now we have to pay for our stupidity.

"Members of the Red Heart Society are all tough guys. When faced with a monster ten times more powerful than themselves, no one flinched, no one ran away, and no one even frowned. Everyone rushed forward without hesitation.

"So what, even if you glue your brows together, you still can't escape being torn into pieces by the monster, swallowed, and turned into feces.

"Many people died, including the president of the Red Heart Society.

"I remember that the president had a majestic beard, a pair of piercing bull's eyes the size of a copper bell, and he looked quite ferocious and would not let strangers approach him.

"But he is actually a very gentle and humorous man. All the children in the district like him. They often climb on his shoulders and ride him like a horse. But he doesn't care and cooperates instead.

The children were running and jumping, sprinting and stopping suddenly, which frightened the children and made them laugh with joy.

"This idiot...

"While the leaders of other gangs are doing everything they can to seize resources and practice crazily, cultivating to the six-star, seven-star or even god realm, he wastes too much time patrolling the jurisdiction, playing with and caring for the children

Now the doomsday beast is coming to the lonely old man. If he doesn't die, who will?

“The gap between the two sides is really too big.

"The doomsday beast didn't target him, or even notice him. It just kicked half of his body and half of his head into a pulp with an understatement.

"He was lying in the footprints of the doomsday beast, with his broken limbs and bloody mud mixed together. He could only stare hard at the other half of his head and the only remaining eye, looking at his jurisdiction.

And the children who rode on his neck all day long, laughing like silver bells, were enveloped in the flames of destruction.

"I saw that his whole eyeballs were protruding, and blood and tears like springs were gushing out from the hollow eye sockets.

"I think he must have regretted it at the last moment.

"It's a pity that 'regret' and 'kindness' are the most useless things in the cruel apocalypse.

"At this time, Lei Zongchao came.

"As the number one expert in Dragon City, Lei Zongchao, the 'God of War' at his peak, possesses unparalleled power to destroy the world and is the patron saint of many citizens.

"Seeing that the Red Heart Society was destroyed and dozens of communities were plunged into flames, Lei Zongchao became furious and aroused the spiritual power of a mountain and a tsunami, severely injuring a doomsday beast in one encounter.

"But there are too many doomsday beasts and other monsters attacking Dragon City.

"No matter how strong Lei Zongchao is, he can't beat four hands with two fists.

"What's more, the enemy is far more than just 'four hands', and may also have eight claws, a dozen tails and hundreds of fangs.

"Lei Zongchao soon fell into the siege of three doomsday beasts and dozens of hell beasts, and was unable to escape for a while.

"The remaining monsters picked up the pace and ravaged our homeland into a complete mess.

"The sound of burning flames, the sound of buildings collapsing, the shrill screams of soldiers and the helpless cries of children made Lei Zongchao upset and gradually fell into disadvantage.

"Yes, Lei Zongchao and President Chixin are both good people, but good people often have one biggest shortcoming, which is soft-hearted. In battle, this shortcoming is very fatal.

"Lei Zongchao suffered severe injuries, his armor was soaked with blood, and his exposed skin was torn with criss-crossing wounds, and no good piece of flesh could be found.

"It seems that he who refuses to retreat is very likely to fall under the surging beast tide.

"Lei Zongchao's fall means the complete collapse of the entire defense line. What awaits us is no other possibility except humiliating destruction.

"My friends and I are all prepared to die bravely.

"However, as we looked at each other, we read more things in each other's eyes. We suddenly realized that what drove us to regard death as home was not 'courage' and 'justice', but 'shame' and 'regret'.

"We regret that we did not listen to the teachings of our fathers and followed them on the path of doing everything possible to become stronger; we are ashamed that we spent too much time and resources on meaningless things, to the point of killing ourselves and also

We have killed countless citizens who believed in us and placed all their hopes on us.

"We obviously don't have the power to be a hero, but we insist on deceiving ourselves and others and pretending to be a hero. When the crisis really comes, we can't shoulder any responsibility. How can we escape back to our hometown with no appearance? We can only use death to wash away our sins.

and escape punishment.

"My friends and I all closed our eyes. We didn't want to see each other's ashamed expressions anymore. We just wanted to rush towards the doomsday beast and end everything in the blazing beast flames.

"That's when we heard a sonic boom.

"More than ten sonic booms pierced the sky and shook the earth, like thousands of troops and horses, sweeping in from outside the sky.

“Our eyes were opened by the sonic boom, and we were extremely surprised to find that it was our fathers who were coming at lightning speed like a cruise missile.

"It was our fathers who were greedy, selfish, hard-hearted, and plundering.

"It was those of us who, in order to defeat the Blood Alliance, dressed up sanctimoniously, held high the banner of 'justice' and 'fairness', and made numerous promises to gang members and citizens. However, after we really defeated the Blood Alliance, we couldn't wait to carve up the pieces.

The fathers who inherited the legacy of the Blood Alliance and used all resources for their own cultivation.

"It's those...dragon-slaying warriors who turned into evil dragons.

"The leader is none other than my father, Lu Zhongqi.

"He was surrounded by surging spiritual flames, and his spiritual energy condensed into shock waves that wildly bombarded the surrounding air, making a deafening sound, which was like waves crashing on the shore and rolling thunder.

"The extremely astonishing momentum is not weaker than that of the 'God of War' Lei Zongchao.

"I couldn't believe my eyes. My father actually made such an amazing breakthrough in just one and a half years, and made great strides to reach the realm of gods!

"Looking at my father's face, which was still as cold as a knife and an axe, without any expression at all, I suddenly thought of a past incident.

"Not long after I joined the Red Heart Society, there was a six or seven-year-old girl in the area who was infected with a very special alien flesh-eating bacteria. Her internal organs were chewed into pits and she was on the verge of death.

"I remember that she was a very beautiful little girl with a voice as sweet as a lark. Before she got sick, her singing was the best comfort to the sincere members who had worked hard all day.

"Everyone calls her 'Little Bailing'. All the Red Heart members like her very much, especially those of us who have rebelled against the nine major gangs. We all regard Xiaobailing as the most beautiful symbol of human nature. In the dark and bloody apocalypse,

, the most worthy thing to protect.

"So, when we learned that Little Bailing was infected with flesh-eating bacteria from another world, we were all very anxious and tried every means to cure her disease.

"It's a pity that the Red Heart Society lacks doctors and medicines. Our exploration of alien germs and psychic powers has just begun. The doctors have been at a loss for a long time. They just said that unless we find a piece of 'blue original mother stone crystal marrow', we can inspire the little

Only Bai Ling's own vitality can create miracles. Otherwise, this cute little girl can only rot and die from the inside out.

"I know that my father happens to have a collection of the finest blue raw motherstone crystal marrow!

"When I rebelled against my family, I swore that I would never return to the Lu family unless Dragon City became a paradise where everyone was equal, peaceful, and prosperous.

"But for Little Bailing, I broke my promise and got fat. I returned to the Lu family and faced the ridicule, sarcasm, concern and disappointment of my brothers and sisters. I knelt down to my father and begged him to give me, no, lend me a little bit of Lan Yuan.

Mother stone crystal marrow.

"I know how precious this kind of top-quality crystal is, but no matter how precious it is, can it still be more valuable than a human life? What's more, I don't need too much, just a little bit, just a little bit smaller than a fingernail!

"As you can imagine, my father rejected me outright.

"He said that he needed the blue motherstone crystal marrow to repair damaged organs and blood vessels, shorten the cooling time between two crazy exercises, and speed up the upgrade.

"Even if you lend me a tiny bit of blue motherstone crystal marrow smaller than a fingernail, it may delay his upgrade speed for days, hours, or minutes.

"And he couldn't wait even a few seconds.

"I was stunned by my father's reasoning.

"Before I went back, I thought that he might refuse.

“But I didn’t expect that he would reject me for such a reason.

"For the sake of a living human life, if you slow down your cultivation speed a little, it will only waste a few days at most. I don't understand how ruthless you have to be to refuse such an exchange!

"'One day, you will understand.'

"My father only said these eight words to me, and then he kicked me out of the house and continued to focus on his cultivation.

"He didn't even bother to get furious at my betrayal, as if his own son's rebelliousness was nothing compared to his cultivation.

“Of course I didn’t understand it at the time, and I thought I would never understand it.

"Especially when Little Bailing finally couldn't find the blue mother stone crystal marrow, her whole body was covered with ulcers, and she died in extreme pain in front of me. When her euphemistic and touching singing voice turned into the most miserable scream, I was even more moved.

Furious and heartbroken.

"In my eyes at that time, my father had become as terrifying as the former leaders of the Blood Alliance. They were both demons who used unscrupulous means to achieve their goals, were selfish, and took human life lightly!

"Until now——

"The father who broke through to the divine realm, and the other nine gang leaders who were selfish, unscrupulous, plundered resources, and practiced crazily, and thus broke through to the divine realm, descended from the sky, fought fiercely against the doomsday beasts, and saved the 'God of War' Lei Zongchao.

Saved communities that were about to be destroyed and thousands of survivors.
