Even though Xu Zhe could think of dozens of ideas in a second, when he heard that Wei Xun actually wanted to rely on the demon fortress to complete his final promotion, he couldn't help but frown in surprise.
"Do you know what you are talking about? You should know that my Lord hates forming factions the most! "Xu Zhe's voice was a bit louder.
Wei Xun shook his head and took a sip of the red wine on the table. The corners of his mouth curved into a smile as he said, "Xu Zhe, no matter how intelligent you are, you still don't understand my Lord. That's right, my Lord hates forming factions. He is like the sun hanging in the sky. No one can escape his refraction and attention. Thus, no one dares to be disloyal. My loyalty to my Lord is proof!"
"But …"
Wei Xun dragged out his voice and continued, "Compared to traitors, my Lord hates useless people more!"
"My Lord has fought countless battles and even dared to deal with gods. Everything he does is naturally for strength. In this doomsday, strength is the most important thing. If we don't have any achievements, no matter how loyal we are, there will be a day when we will be eliminated. How can we live such a glorious life?"
"Do you know how much those wolf cubs of the Blood War Division want to drag me down? Wang Xudong has some trusted subordinates who can be considered his think tank. They even have plans to oust me and take sole control of the division! "
Xu Zhe narrowed his eyes as if he was recalling something. He then said, "I remember this person. He can be considered a proud son of heaven. If I remember correctly, he was promoted by you. What? Is this how you discipline your subordinates? "
Wei Xun laughed mockingly and said, "What? Do you think I'm not vicious and merciless enough to let them do whatever they want?"
Xu Zhe did not say anything. He merely looked at Wei Xun quietly. Due to their different personalities, they did not have a close relationship. They had even quarreled a few times over some resources. However, one thing was undeniable. They were the ones who had initially assisted Chen Feng to reach where they were today. As senior figures, if Wei Xun were to be pushed down one day, it would be unavoidable for Xu Zhe to feel sad for him.
"If I say … those who suggested Wang Xudong's rebellion are all my trusted subordinates, would you believe me?"
Xu Zhe was stunned. He had already received too many surprises today. He did not expect that Wei Kai would actually let his own confidant instigate a rebellion.
Wei Xun stood up. After drinking a whole bottle of red wine, he didn't look drunk at all. After reaching the legendary rank, his life had undergone some qualitative changes. Even if alcohol was poured into his body, it would be dissipated by energy in an instant, not to mention red wine with low alcohol content. It wouldn't affect his normal performance at all.
The Insectoid World has been sealed by our Master, the City of Silver has been destroyed, and even the giant beasts in the sea have been wiped out for offending Order. They have become the ship's escorts. Now, Order seems to be enjoying its glory and is unrivaled. Even you and I are extremely high officials. Everyone calls us the eight heroes! "
"But … this is the end of the world. There will be even more terrifying enemies appearing at any moment. I don't wish to be like the City of Silver, instantly destroyed by an even greater expert. I also don't wish to be hated and abandoned by my master one day. So, I need pressure. Only with pressure can I not relax!"
"Is this why you asked Wang Xudong to rebel against you?" Xu Zhe asked calmly.
"That's right!"
Wei Xun laughed loudly. "If there's no pressure, I'll create pressure. Wang Xudong is not bad. In just a year, he has become a legendary expert since his awakening. His charisma is extraordinary. To be honest, I think that kid deserves to be the head of the Blood Warfare Division!"
"Now, only some people are following him. Most of them are still afraid of me and don't dare to draw a clear line. However, Wang Xudong is a genius. If this continues, he will defeat me sooner or later. When that time comes, I will be successfully challenged in front of tens of thousands of people. What should I do then?"
Wei Xun revealed a hint of madness. "So, I can't wait. I've already dug a deep hole for myself. If I can't jump out, I'll jump in and bury myself alive!"
"Without pressure, there will be no motivation. What I want to do is very simple. I need to rely on the pressure of the abyss to complete the final breakthrough. Only by truly advancing to the epic rank can I control my own life and not be pulled down from the sky by anyone."
Xu Zhe hesitated for a while. "Isn't this too risky? You and I have both been to places like the abyss. In the order of the world, the legendary ranks are just some generals. If you are careless, you will be doomed eternally and stay there forever! "
"Hahaha!"
Wei Xun laughed loudly and looked at Xu Zhe. "That's why I, a married man, will be frightened. You have a family and even a child is about to be born. However, I'm different. Although I have many women, I have never really thought of marriage and children because I know that you and I pursue different things!"
"You pursue a stable life. That's why I came to you and asked you to help me win the final crown. Don't worry about my Lord. I'm not going there for power. I'm simply gathering the demons in the fortress as a blood sacrifice for me. I'll use a real battle to help me reach the epic rank!"
"What you want is a family and children, but what I want is absolute power. I've already seen it. Without power, you can't survive in this world. Compared to your so-called family, killing is the path I've always wanted to walk!"
"I'll work hard for this for the rest of my life!"
"I've never changed my attitude toward order or my Lord. What I've changed is my heart that will become more and more unsatisfied!" Chen Feng narrowed his eyes, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
Xu Zhe closed his eyes and thought for a few seconds before saying, "I accept your suggestion. However, I won't let my people lose to you on purpose. Instead, I'll make some predictions in advance for your trip to the abyss. As for the competition, let's leave it to fate on the battlefield!"
Wei Xun looked at Xu Zhe and said, "It's already beyond my expectations that you can say that. I originally thought that you would rush out of the door after hearing that we're joining forces. You wouldn't give me a chance to speak at all."
Xu Zhe said, "People will change."
Wei Xun was stunned. He nodded and said, "That's right. People will change."
"But there's one thing that I'll never change!"
"What won't change?" Xu Zhe was curious.
"The heart to become stronger. I won't stay where I am. All my efforts now are to become stronger. I want to reach the epic rank. Even if I die, I won't hesitate!" Wei Xun said with a gloomy face.
