Chapter 1141 - Reunion
"It"s been a while, Kyle, Stina, Ellen." Lin Xingzhi smiled.
"Yes." Kyle nodded with a smile. "Where is Master?"
"Alex is still in his practice. He probably needs another year to come back."
"I see, but I think this one is pretty urgent." Kyle"s expression turned serious. "Do you know where we went during our trip?"
"Hmm? I didn"t keep tabs on you, so I don"t know. Though, I have updated your information from time to time according to your report."
"We had gone to a certain star where we saw so many phoenixes hiding on the surface of the star, cultivating by hopping from one star to another. We properly checked and tried to follow them as it became one of the reasons why we could get this strong so soon."
Lin Xingzhi stood up in shock and asked again, "What did you say?"
"As I said, we have found where the phoenixes are hiding. I have heard about Master"s story on our trip, so I can somehow understand what he wants. That"s why I believe that this information will bring happiness to both you and Master."
Lin Xingzhi facepalmed and remembered Alex"s message. "Since it"s not possible to handle their G.o.d Kings, he wants to strike the army to reduce their overall strength. At the same time, it"s perfect to see them away from the Phoenix G.o.ddess who controls a few Divine Worlds.
"And with Alex spreading the rumors about her being a traitor, he managed to suppress them a little bit. In other words, this would be the perfect time to strike them." Lin Xingzhi contemplated for a few seconds before returning to manage the system, relaying the message to Alex.
On a certain planet, Alex opened his mouth in surprise when he read it. "You sure?"
[Yes. To avoid being found out, I suggest that we only mobilize Eulja.]
Alex took a deep breath and decided. "Alright. Let me return to Eulja first. What"s their number?"
[Fifty thousand G.o.d Rank Experts.]
"Prepare ten thousand G.o.d Rank Experts. Call the Guardians and Elemental G.o.ds along with Anna and Jeanne. Also, don"t forget about Anya and Aria. We are setting up a war council to wipe the phoenixes out of the picture."
[Understood.]
As soon as he finished the conversation, he looked up and smiled. "Kyle, huh. It"s been a while."
A Teleportation Array appeared beneath his feet and sent him away from the planet.
It took another day for him to arrive, but this became a precious time for him to think about his course of action.
As soon as he returned to Eulja, Lin Xingzhi had been waiting for him in front of the Garden.
They went straight to the war council, where the meeting would happen. As expected, everyone had been waiting for them. Even Anya had set up everything and prepared to tell the plan.
Alex took the front seat and looked at all of them with a serious expression. "We can"t afford to waste a single moment because they may pick it up or something. Hence, I"m going to attack them before they can run away."
"How?" Aria tilted her head in confusion as she couldn"t see a way to kill all the phoenixes without being found out. She knew that a few thousand would likely survive this attack.
Alex smiled and answered her. "Quality beats quant.i.ty."
"Still, even if we bring the Commandants, it"s still not sure we can kill all of the phoenixes." Aria shook her head, rejecting his claim.
"Who says I will bring the commandants? I literally ask for help from those who have been angry at the phoenixes since ancient times. He has hidden their hatred for too long, so I"m thinking about unleas.h.i.+ng it." Alex made an evil smile as he could already foresee that those guys would actually use more than a hundred percent when the battle started.
Anya then realized and took a step back. "Are you serious?"
"It"s time for them to show themselves to the universe." Alex smiled. "Comprising ten Rank 2 G.o.ds, they are the strongest ally for Eulja at the moment. Ten G.o.d Beasts!"
The entire room fell silent as they never thought that Alex was far crazier than Anya.
Aria couldn"t help but comment. "This means we have twenty-one Rank 2 G.o.ds and three G.o.d Kings along with ten thousand G.o.d Rank Experts. If this doesn"t work, we better surrender since the battle ahead will be too dangerous."
Alex nodded in agreement and added. "Also, I think my fire can suppress them. In fact, I can suppress Roy, so I think we can lower their number in a second. All of you can deal with the rest of them."
They looked at each other and nodded their heads in succession, agreeing with Alex"s plan.
"Also, ask Kyle, Stina, Ellen, Firia and Sherry. I have something for them." Alex nodded and then left.
The others could only shrug their shoulders, leaving everything to Lin Xingzhi.
After that, Lin Xingzhi took over the meeting and told them a few things about the details.
Aria and Anya planned everything according to Alex"s instruction and worked it up as they decided to attack them in three days.
Alex waited for the five of them in the garden as he gradually opened his eyes when the three arrived. Surprisingly, Silvia came along with Sherry because she seemed to have a matter of importance.
"What are you doing here?" Alex asked in confusion. "Do you need something from me?"
"Yes. I need you to lie down a bit." Silvia nodded with a serious expression.
"Lie down? Ehm, if you want to do it in the open, I don"t mind, but there are others here. It"s not appropriate." Alex shook his head, rejecting her request.
"Did your brain get burned or something?" Silvia shook her head helplessly before taking out her needles. "I mean this."
"Ah?!" Alex remembered his plan after reaching Rank 3 G.o.d. It was to have Silvia"s ma.s.sage once again to increase his power.
"You forgot about it?"
"Almost." Alex scratched the back of his head, feeling embarra.s.sed. "Well, we can do it a bit later since I need to use my power right now."
"Is that so? Fine…" Silvia agreed and left. "I will be waiting for you in your room."
"Yeah sure. I will go there as soon as I finish and… thank you for taking care of me."
Silvia only waved her hand as the only reason she came here was due to the bitterness in her heart. She never expected that Alex truly caught up in Rank 3 G.o.d. There was no guarantee that Alex would reach Rank 2 G.o.d before her or not, but they truly reached the endpoint already.
The battle between him and the beast would probably be his last battle because from that point on, no one would dare to offend Eulja, especially with seven G.o.d Kings on one planet. Though she still believed that she could become another G.o.d King for both Eulja and her father.
Either way, she didn"t hold a grudge or something and truly felt happy that Alex had become a Rank 3 G.o.d this soon.
Sherry and the others finally arrived in front of Alex with a confused expression, not knowing why Alex gathered them here.
But since only his contracted beasts and wives were here, they could somehow understand his purpose, especially with his other contracted beast, Leka, not included in the conversation.
"I think you all have guessed the purpose of this meeting. Yes. I have evolved my Pure Fire to another level after absorbing Planet Essence and Sun Essence. I think Sherry"s Pure Fire can evolve into this too, but for now, I want to test whether you have a different feeling about it again. After all, this is outside my territory. I just want to be safe." Alex explained.
Firia and the others agreed without hesitation. "What do you want us to do?"
"First of all, I want to ask whether your fire has gotten stronger or not."
"I have." Firia nodded, feeling the sudden power increase in her Sacrificial Element. It was the most direct connection than anything else, so she obviously was the first to receive the benefit. "No change in purity or something, but the power is terrifying. I think I won"t have trouble fighting Sherry"s Pure Fire."
"Do you want to test it, Firia?" Sherry smirked before getting a smack from Alex. "Gah. I was joking. Well, I do feel a slight change, but I haven"t explored it yet. By the way, what is the name of your new fire?"
"Sun G.o.d Fire."
"G.o.dly Pure Fire and Sun Essence… Sun G.o.d Fire huh. Your naming sense sucks as always."
"I scored myself a pa.s.sing score this time. At least, it"s not that bad compared to the other names. And I should have named you Pochi or something."
"I"m going to fight you over this." She pouted before adding two works that completely changed the entire meaning. "On bed."
Firia pinched her cheeks and shook her head helplessly. "Alright. Enough you h.o.r.n.y fox."
"But you are more perverted than me."
"What did you say?" Firia narrowed her eyes. "It"s my skill that is better than yours. What do you mean by more perverted? What about you? Don"t you think I don"t know that you and sister Xingzhi have collaborated with each other? Raising the money to buy all kind of s*x toys this universe can offer."
Her face became pale as she looked away. "I don"t know what you"re talking about."
"Hmph. You are already a corrupted official. You may have created channels for our business to grow, but you use a bit of it to collect all the toys. Where do you hide it?"
"I didn"t embezzle money. I earned it." She pouted.
The two continued to argue for a few more seconds until Alex stopped them.
"Alright, alright. Let"s stop here. What I want to know is the effect of this Sun G.o.d Fire. Do you mind if I burn you a bit?" Alex asked. "I mean, channeling my power into your body."
"We don"t mind of course." Sherry nodded with a serious expression and looked at the others who had the same opinion.
"Thanks." Alex smiled before finally looking at Kyle and his family. "Still, it"s nice to see you again, Kyle."
Seeing Alex open his arms wide, Kyle hugged him like brothers and smiled. "It"s truly been a while, Master. To think I would be able to do something like this. Meeting you was really the greatest moment of my life. I"d also reunited with my family. We"re working for the second child, but I think we will postpone it after this war is over."
"That"s good. Be happy with your family. That"s my sincerest wish."
"Thank you, Master."
After releasing Kyle, Alex then opened his arms again to Stina as the two hugged too. "I miss you, Master."
"Yeah, me too. You have left for decades. I thought you forgot about me."
"Haha. How can we forget the most impactful man in our lives?" Stina chuckled and released him. "Besides, Ellen is with us right now. I feel blessed."
"Ahaha. You make me embarra.s.sed." Alex then looked at Ellen, who also gave him a hug. "How are you, Ellen? How is the kingdom?"
"I have pa.s.sed it to the next generation and chased after my parents. Still, I wish I can contribute to something for Master. Not only have you done so much to my family, but you also have saved my life in the past."
"Haha, you don"t need to worry about it." Alex smiled. "I"m glad that you"ve gained your freedom back now."
"Thank you, Master. I will work hard from today on."
"Yes. I will be looking forward to your achievement in the future. Just don"t feel pressured because of it, okay?"
"Yes." Ellen smiled and took a few step backs.
Alex"s expression turned serious as he called out his golden flame as if the "warm" atmosphere earlier truly turned warm… literally.
"Alright. Who is first?" Alex asked with an excited smile.
