Chapter 206: Who brought me here?
Liu Feng frowned. He looked around but could see no one conspicuous. This puzzled him because he was absolutely positive that there was someone powerful who had arrived here.
Seeing that he recognized no one, he slowly put on his guard.
“If someone did come here, then that someone might not have had good intentions.”, Liu Feng thought to himself as he took a few steps forward.
“You are quite the cautious human. Well, I guess it comes in your genes. A human has to adapt, and make sure that he isn’t backstabbed by his peers after all.”, a voice came from behind Liu Feng.
Liu Feng turned around to face the voice instantly. But behind him, no one was there. It was like he hallucinated what he heard.
“That voice said something about me getting backstabbed by my peers? He must be someone who hates humans as well, and he is one who shares the opinion that humans are traitors. He must be on the side of Dicain against this fight.”, Liu Feng deducted as he kept turning around. Even though he thought that the person who said something could well be on his side of the war, he was not sure of the person’s intentions.
“But this caution is unwarranted against me, human, for I am not the one that you need to bare your fangs at.”, the same voice whispered in his ears once more.
“Who are you? Why did you come here? Do you wish to participate in the war? Show yourself to me.”, Liu Feng asked.
“So many questions. But I have no intention of answering any of them. Think, chosen one, think. What are the real questions that you need to know? This is not my fight. I am not required in this battle between the kids, but some one requested me to help you out a little. So here I am.”, the voice said.
“The right questions? How can I even trust you?”, Liu Feng shouted.
He saw that the recruits around him were looking at him weirdly, and they avoided him. It was clear that they couldn’t hear what Liu Feng was hearing.
“The fact that you can’t see me, just means that I am that much powerful against you. You are just an ant, struggling against a huge demon force. If I even remotely supported the demons, I could just kill you with the snap of my hands. But here you are, alive. And I also have no reason to explain myself. You need me, not the other way around, child.”, the voice said.
Liu Feng’s face twitched. “An ant struggling against a huge demon force?”, the phrase rang through his head again and again. He wanted to shout back, but he hesitated.
“Can we take this somewhere private?”, he asked.
“That is your wish, child. No one here can see me, and no one but you can hear me.”, the voice said humorously.
“But they can see and hear me.”, Liu Feng said.
“Then we shall take this private.”, the voice said. Liu Feng suddenly felt a wind gush through his body. He closed his eyes to shield them and opened them only when the wind subsided. He was shocked to find that he was in a place far from where he was before.
This was a barren land, that was en route from the previous city to this one. This was the same path that Liu Feng passed by when he was still disguised as a recruit.
“How did you take me this far away from the camp in mere seconds?”, Liu Feng looked flabbergasted.
“You are still ignorant about how the world works, child. There is much that you have not seen.”, the voice said.
“What do you want with me? Who asked you to help me?”, Liu Feng asked.
“Again, you are asking the wrong questions. Think again, and ask again. What do you truly wish to know?”, the voice asked again.
Liu Feng paused. Then, he asked with a determined face, “Who is the demon king. Can he be defeated?”
“Haha, you really are ignorant. To think that you would have such lofty goals. You can’t even defeat a demon general, yet you think that you can scratch the demon king? Someone who has terrorized the world for so long?”, the voice laughed out.
“The demon king has terrorized the world for so long? Yet I and many others have not even heard of him, never seen a shadow of him. If he is hated so much, then why doesn’t the rest of the world rally up against him?”, Liu Feng asked.
“Because they are not powerful enough. It is as simple as that. Power is power. Nothing can triumph it. Not even an endless number of schemes.”, the voice said.
“How did the demon king become so powerful? Aren’t we stopped by the fact that we cannot cross the ninth order? How can the demon king be much more powerful than us?”, Liu Feng asked.
“That is a secret that I cannot reveal to you, child. It is not something that you have to know now. That fight that you think that you have to prepare for, is not yours to fight. You are too weak to even participate in that. You have another to prepare for, and that is what I suggest that you put your focus on.”, the voice said.
“Everyone that I have seen said that this fight is one that I can handle. If that is to be believed, then it is not supposed to be my priority.”, Liu Feng said confidently.
“Do you really think that the few tricks that you have up your sleeve can counter two demon ministers? I really am intrigued by your confidence, child. Is it caused by your ignorance, or do you truly have something that you think will help you?”, the voice said.
