Chapter 543 - Gratitude and Hatred (2/2)
He Xiangu nodded again. Even if they were Elysium’s senior executives, they would still certainly be chased after. If an organization couldn’t perform such execution, then no matter how strong they were, they wouldn’t be acknowledged by other divine beasts martial artists.
Qin Fen pondered, “I know that this may not be appropriate, but I do not intend to insult you; why do you have to stay in the Elysium?”
He Xiangu and Lu Dongbin laughed together, “That’s because our best friends were all in the Elysium.”
“Your friends?”
He Xiangu and Lu Dongbin paused a little and looked at Lan Caihe beside them. They suddenly felt low-spirited.
That’s true! Our best friends? The Elysium’s Eight Immortals… who else is left now? Cao Guojiu is already dead…. he was killed by the Emperor of Inferno. Lan Caihe has become what he is today. In order to enhance the combat power, the Elysium turned Lan Caihe into a monster even though they knew things would turn out this way.
Not everyone in the Eight Immortals was best friends to each other. The best friends of He Xiangu and Lu Dongbin were Cao Guojiu and Lan Caihe. Now, these two friends were not in the Elysium anymore.
“Qin Fen, I know what you want to say.” Lu Dongbin waved Qin Fen off and shook his head, “Don’t say it. Although we will leave the Elysium after this, we will never take refuge in Saturn’s military.”
Qin Fen heaved a sigh. Although he knew that there would be such an answer, he couldn’t help but wanted to persuade the two of them. Lu Dongbin and He Xiangu were powerful, and they were not bad people. If they could join Saturn’s military, it would be a win-win situation.
“After all…” Lu Dongbin looked towards the natural cemetery as if he was looking at the bodies of the Eight Immortals which couldn’t be seen at all. He seemed downhearted, “They were not our best friends, but they were part of the Eight Immortals. You killed the men from our side. If I were to join the military, I will feel sorry for them.”
He Xiangu nodded gently; this was the reason why she was unwilling to share the information of the Founding Society. Even if they shared the information, they couldn’t be part of Saturn’s military. Without some strong parties to cover up for them, it would be difficult for them to survive in Saturn even with their strength as the Eight Immortals. Elysium would never be soft on the traitors.
“Qin Fen, I will tell you about the Founding Society. It is to return the favor of you saving me.” Lu Dongbin straightened his back, “One day, whether it’ll be on Saturn or when we meet on the Ensemble of Heroes, I will avenge Han Zhongli and Tie Guaili!”
Du Zhanpeng was in the pain of losing his brother, but there were still glimpses of admiration on his gaze at Lu Dongbin. Under this condition, Lu Dongbin could still put everything out frankly. He was worthy of being a man! It was a pity that the future of this man had almost no hope at all. Although Elysium was not as strong as Qin Zhan, it was not too much of a trouble for them to finish off these two Immortals. Especially when these two were injured from the battle before; for now, they were not as strong as they used to be.
“Alright, I am ready anytime for the two of you to take revenge on me.” Qin Fen looked at Lu Dongbin’s eyes full of determination, and he made a decision. After finishing with the Founding Society, I will go all out to attack the Elysium, so they wouldn’t have time and energy to go after the two of them. This is to thank him for telling me about the Founding Society today.
Speaking of returning the favor, sometimes it’ll be your turn to do it; then, the next time, it’ll be my turn. Eventually, everyone will lose track of who is returning a favor.
Lu Dongbin patted He Xiangu, who was holding him, on the back of her hand, “I guess you don’t know Saturn well. Saturn has a lot of strange places outside of the bustling cities. Some are naturally formed, while others are formed by a combination of natural and artificial means. For example, this cemetery forest is a naturally occurring place. The location for the Founding Society is known as the Sicilian Mountain Range…”
Sicilian Mountain Range? Qin Fen and Caesar looked at each other and they were shocked. It wasn’t an unknown place, in fact, it was too famous! The highest peak on Earth was Mount Everest, which was located in the Himalayas. What about the highest peak on Saturn? It was Mount Tianwang, which was located in the Sicilian Mountain Range! It was well known as Saturn’s highest peak!
The towering peak had a height of seventeen thousand meters, almost twice the height of Mount Everest.
Such a mountain, even for someone who had never left the Earth, was well-known to everyone. After all, it was the highest peak of Saturn; although it didn’t even rank in the top twenty in the entire Federation.
“It seems that you know about this place.” Lu Dongbin gave a bitter smile, “Then you probably know it already: the base which was used by the Founding Society for turning Lan Caihe into the insect warrior, it is located in Mount Tianwang!”
Qin Fen found that when Lu Dongbin revealed the location of the Founding Society’s base as Mount Tianwang, Du Zhanpeng was not surprised at all. Chen Zhi, who was standing beside Du Zhanpeng, showed an admiring look; as if he was praising Lu Dongbin.
They knew it already that there is a base for the Founding Society on Mount Tianwang? Qin Fen glanced doubtfully at the martial dao masters next to Chen Zhi. They too were not surprised at all, and they gave a look of approval.
“As for the coordinates.” Lu Dongbin sighed, “I will take you there.”
“Dongbin…” He Xiangu muttered.
Lu Dongbin looked at He Xiangu and smiled softly, “We have already told them anyway, and we couldn’t go back to the Elysium anymore. So why should we care? Let’s go!”
