"Dad, dad …" A weak voice came from Daina's mouth. Her originally dull eyes suddenly became clear, filled with excitement, grievance, and a trace of relief. Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes. No one knew what kind of humiliation and torture she had suffered during this period of time. Compared to the physical pain, the mental trauma that Zaxi Te and Jason had inflicted on her was the most painful for her.
But she endured it.
The reason why she had such tenacious willpower was because she knew that once Dean and the others succeeded, it would endanger her 'father's' life. Even if she knew that Dean and the others were not her father's opponents, she wouldn't allow her father to be in danger.
At the moment she looked at the strong man standing in front of her. She felt that everything was worth it. She had been waiting for this moment!
Hearing Daina's voice, Jason and Tashi, who were roaring, froze on the spot as if they were struck by lightning. They turned their heads and looked past the muscular man at Daina, who was lying on the grass in front of him. After a long time, the two turned their heads stiffly. They looked at each other and slowly turned to Dean. They saw Dean gently shaking his head. There was a trace of coldness in his eyes.
The two were startled on the spot. Their mouths were slightly open but they couldn't speak.
At this moment, they understood that Daina was not crazy at all. From the beginning to the end, Daina had been watching over their plans, and she had been watching over them.
The two couldn't blame Dean. Their eyes were full of despair.
"Dad is here." The strong man squatted down and gently picked up Dana. It was as if he was holding a newborn baby. His face was full of gentleness: "I'll take you home."
"I've finally … waited for you." There was a sweet smile on Dana's face. She was a bit tired as she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
She had been working hard in the past few days and hadn't had a good rest. At this moment she couldn't support it anymore.
The strong man gently kissed her forehead and looked at her tenderly.
After a long time.
He slowly turned around. The tenderness on his face had turned into indifference. His eyes fell on Jason and Zaxi who were on the ground.
"Elder, I didn't do it. It was him. They did it. I tried to persuade them but they didn't listen to me …" Zaxi's face was full of despair. He knelt towards the strong man and begged: "Please let me go. I'm willing to do anything for you even if I have to be a pathfinder."
"You!" Jason was angry but at the same time terrified. He also crawled towards the strong man: "Elder, it was his idea. It has nothing to do with me. I have a lot of information to give you. I know the flaws of the War God's wall. I also know the secrets of the empire. Please let me go. I can be your subordinate and help you do anything …"
Both he and Zaxi knew that just crying and begging and showing an extremely humble attitude would not be enough to make people softhearted. In fact, it would only annoy them. But they wanted to tell the strong man as much as possible that they still had value and could bring help to him.
The strong man looked at them expressionlessly. After a moment, he slowly opened his mouth: "How did you hurt her?"
Seeing his question, the two seemed to have found a loophole and scrambled to answer. "He attacked her and cut her in half. We were going to follow her to see you, but we didn't expect him to suddenly attack. We saw that he had done it, so it was obviously impossible to continue to see you, so we could only accompany him to the end. He did it!"
The strong man narrowed his eyes and looked at Dean who was not far away.
Dean was in a cold sweat but didn't open his mouth to defend himself. With the strong man's eyesight, even if they didn't say anything he would be able to guess a few things.
"A debt of blood must be paid with blood. I'll let you live but you can't escape punishment." The strong man's tone was gentle. He didn't have the anger and coldness that they had imagined. As soon as his words fell, a few strong winds swept past them.
Zaxi Te and Jason were slightly startled. The next moment, they felt a chill coming from their arms. The two turned around and saw that both of their arms had fallen to the ground, broken at the shoulder.
The pain was like a needle piercing into their brain. Both of them screamed in pain but didn't dare to scream too loudly in order to avoid annoying the strong man.
They had dominated the life and death of many people. Naturally they knew what kind of scene they didn't like to see.
The strong man's body didn't seem to move. Even Dean who was watching him didn't see how he did it. The strong man looked at both of them who were grimacing in pain but didn't dare to scream. His eyes flashed a trace of coldness. He glanced at Dean who was not far away: "Take them and follow me back."
Then he turned and walked away.
Dean sighed in his heart. He went forward to Zaxi and Jason's side. Both of them looked up at him. There was anger in their eyes but they restrained themselves. They let Dean pick them up one by one.
Their faces turned ugly as they looked at the arms on the ground. They wanted to ask Dean to help them pick up their arms but they didn't dare to. As long as the arms were there there was a possibility of healing. But since the strong man intended to cut off their arms, it was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't do something else if he saw them trying to reconnect their arms.
Dean carried them to keep up with the strong man's pace while they were hesitating.
There was silence along the way.
Occasionally a monster would jump out of the soil and attack the strong man in front of them. The strong man didn't make any move but the monster's body was broken. Blood sputtered and fell to the ground.
Dean and others once again returned to the iron smelting plain. They passed through the underground mine and the underground furnace where they smelted iron and steel. The three of them immediately saw the footprints of the strong man and another pair of small feet. Obviously they had been here before.
"Did you do this?" The strong man asked as he passed by the furnace.
"I did it." Dudian said.
"Do you know smelting? What did you do before? "The strong man's tone was flat. It seemed that they were just chatting.
Dean felt that the man was moody so he didn't dare to relax: "I studied tailoring and medicine. I know a little bit about smelting and purification."
"You have learned a lot." The strong man indifferently said.
"It's just a casual study." Dean replied modestly.
Compared to the other Abyssal Demons who only focused on hunting and combat techniques, as well as magical creatures and politics, he was indeed rich in life skills. Moreover, he knew far more than that, although he did not say it all out. He wanted to keep some trump cards for himself. Although the situation was bad enough, who knew if there was any hope of survival?
Zash and Jason's eyes were gloomy as they heard the conversation between the two. Dean was the mastermind behind the attack on Daina. Why were they the most miserable? On the contrary, Dean seemed to be fine.
However, they could only think about it. They weren't stupid enough to complain to the strong man.
Not long after, the few of them walked along the plain and arrived at the edge of the area. There was a barren mountain here, and the mountain was covered with jagged rocks. It was mainly made of sand and large rocks.
The burly man stopped and found a patch of sand. He reached his hand into the sand and pulled it up. The sand quickly slid down, and a black iron cover was lifted up. Inside was a pitch-black staircase that led deep underground.
"Go in." The strong man said to Dean.
Dean took Aisha, Jason and Zaxite into the room. They had the dark vision so they wouldn't stumble.
With a creak, the muscular man walked in and closed the metal cover, blocking out the last bit of light.
After walking down the stairs for about twenty meters, the stairs were no longer stairs, but a two-meter-wide path. At the end of the path was a heavy iron door.
