The Shining Star Above The Heaven
Chapter 1202: Planning Revenge
Inside Red Moon Guild’s camp outside the base, Wei Zhenyuan and Wei Zhenhai were inside one of the tents.
Wei Zhenhai’s expression still carried reluctance as he remembered the humiliation they had suffered earlier. But he could not properly show his fury because his father had warned him not to display it in front of others.
He gritted his teeth before looking toward his father, who was trying to contact someone.
His eyes glistened as he thought about the decision they had made earlier.
Those people dared to humiliate them? Then they had to be taught a lesson, and a truly harsh one.
But after a few moments, he noticed that his father’s expression had turned ugly. He could feel the restrained fury coming from him, and a moment later, Wei Zhenyuan suddenly crushed the smart bracelet in his hand before throwing it across the tent.
"Damn it!" he shouted as his aura leaked out, causing Wei Zhenhai’s body to tremble. Wei Zhenhai’s heart shook in fear as he saw just how furious his father was.
But he quickly calmed himself before asking,
"What happened, Father?"
"Those motherfuckers refused to move despite all the help we’ve given them all this time. They could even send Hell’s Warrior here without anyone noticing because of our help, but the moment I offered to cooperate with them and make a move against those guilds and the Hunter Association, they refused." Wei Zhenyuan said.
Wei Zhenhai widened his eyes.
"What happened, Father? Why are they refusing us? They should think this is the perfect time to strike several cities at once while all the top powerhouses are gathered here."
Wei Zhenyuan gritted his teeth. "That’s what makes me confused. This should be the best moment for them to attack. They even already sent Hell’s Warriors to Shanghai a few days ago, yet those bastards are still acting like scared cats. They refused to move even after I offered to cooperate, saying that the Red Devil did not give them permission."
Wei Zhenhai narrowed his eyes.
"Is it because of those otherworlders’ presence? Even the Red Devil is taking a wary stance."
Wei Zhenyuan took a deep breath. "Maybe. It looks like he doesn’t want to attract the attention of those otherworlders." But then he paused.
"But then why did he send even his strongest elites to the city where those otherworlders first appeared? Isn’t that the same as trying to attract their attention?" He frowned before gritting his teeth again.
"Fuck, I really don’t know what’s inside that bastard’s mind. After all the help I gave him, he still didn’t budge when I’m the one needing his power."
Wei Zhenhai also felt frustrated. But then his eyes widened as an idea suddenly appeared in his mind. He looked at his father with glistening eyes.
"Father, I think we can do something else to screw with the Hunter Association and those guilds."
Wei Zhenyuan looked at his son.
"What is it?"
"If we can’t use the Malignant’s hands, then we can use other hands that want it. Create a situation so those hands are directed toward the people who dared to humiliate us." Wei Zhenhai said, making Wei Zhenyuan raise his eyebrows.
After a few seconds of thought, Wei Zhenyuan’s eyes widened before he suddenly burst into laughter.
"Ahahaha! Yes, that’s a good idea." He then tapped Wei Zhenhai’s shoulder.
"Good, good. I’m proud of you, son. You are indeed my successor. You truly are clever. Yes, we can use other hands if the Malignant doesn’t want to use theirs."
Wei Zhenhai’s expression turned happy, and he immediately lowered his head.
"It’s nothing, Father. I’m just suggesting an idea."
Wei Zhenyuan’s eyes glistened dangerously. "And that alone is enough for me to shape a plan. I already have the perfect candidate for it, and it will bring trouble to even all of China’s powers."
------------------------------
A few hours later, inside the base, many figures emerged from the Monsters World Gate. They were Aldrian, his wives, and the others who had decided to follow them to witness the clearing process.
Aldrian showed a faint smile while Baek Jimin wore a proud expression. Sylphia and Angelica looked at Baek Jimin as if she had merely gotten lucky. It was obvious which of them had won this round of the challenge.
As for the rest of the group, Bai Cangming only showed an expression that seemed to say, ’As expected of the Great Emperor’s wives.’ The others, however, looked as though they had just seen ghosts. Some walked stiffly with blank expressions while others sighed in amazement.
They simply could not believe what they had witnessed inside. This was the first time they had seen such power, and they wondered whether they could ever reach the same level.
They finally understood how these otherworlders could so easily clear SSSS-rank gates, and even if something beyond that appeared, they would still be able to handle it without difficulty.
’So this is the power of beings from the Inner Realm?’
That thought filled their minds.
"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, we are done here. If you want to find me, you can visit me in Shanghai since I plan to stay there for the time being. And if you want to take that man, you can visit me there as well." Aldrian said.
Bai Cangming suddenly bowed toward Aldrian.
"Thank you for everything you have done for us and for humanity on Earth, Your Excellency. I would like to pay you a visit later."
The others also bowed to him. They expressed their gratitude and their wish to visit him later. The hunters nearby, after seeing all of them bow, also followed.
They believed these people were expressing gratitude toward the otherworlders who had already cleared all the hostile SSSS-rank gates across the world. Now that no hostile SSSS-rank gates remained, their world would become far safer to live in.
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Aldrian and his wives flew at high speed toward the sky. The people outside the base instantly understood that the gate clearing was complete, and they waited for the official announcement from the Hunter Association.
It did not take long before they saw Master Gao floating in the sky. He spoke with a voice that echoed across the vast region.
"The last hostile SSSS-rank gate on Earth, the Monsters World Gate, has been cleared. With this, I can confidently say that there are no hostile SSSS-rank gates left in our world."
The moment he finished his announcement, many reporters rushed forward wanting to ask questions, but Master Gao suddenly flew away, leaving all of them stunned. They then saw the Eleven Heroes also flying off from the base to separate directions in a hurry.
Soon after, the group of the four guild masters and General Bai flew toward their respective camps outside the base. They briefly spoke with their subordinates before they too departed toward different destinations.
The camps of the four major guilds and the military could be seen packing up quickly as if they were in a rush. This caused many people to wonder what had happened.
Why did they seem so hurried? And where were all those powerhouses going? Every single one of them looked pressed for time.
But unfortunately, no one could satisfy the curiosity of the crowd. Neither the Hunter Association, the four guilds, nor the military were willing to reveal any information.
Wei Zhenhai and Wei Zhenyuan, who witnessed all of this, narrowed their eyes. Once again, they felt humiliated, but this time, they also felt excluded.
They instantly realized that something had caused those people to leave in such a hurry. They wondered what it was, but they quickly pushed aside that curiosity.
After this, those bastards would have to deal with another problem that could threaten their lives!
Not long afterward, they also left, thinking there was nothing else they needed to see there.
Although countless people wondered what had happened to make all of those powerhouses seem so rushed, they quickly rejoiced over the fact that there were no more hostile SSSS-rank gates left in the world.
Earth had now become a far safer place, and the dangers it faced had greatly lessened. They truly felt grateful toward Aldrian and his wives for making this possible.
The area surrounding the Monster World Gate base remained bustling even after all the powerhouses had already left. Many of the people there were hunters, and they wanted to explore the gate after the cleaning process.
Besides searching for treasures, they also wanted to witness the condition of the gate itself.
Just what kind of power had Aldrian and his wives used to clear those gates?
-----------------------------
As billions of people were still immersed in the euphoria of the last SSSS-rank gate being cleared, Aldrian and his wives flew toward Shanghai while enjoying the scenery below.
"What a satisfying slaughter. Killing those devils always gives me a sense of satisfaction. Moreover, I won the last round." Baek Jimin commented with a smile.
"Well, I have to admit that Sister Jimin’s techniques are effective against those beasts. But I still won overall with eight victories, while Sister Sylphia is second with two wins." Angelica said, causing both Baek Jimin and Sylphia to pout.
"That’s because Sister Angelica’s cultivation is the highest among us. If I were at the same level as you, the result wouldn’t be certain." Sylphia commented.
"Is that so? Well, it looks like I’ll have to make sure none of you overtake me in cultivation level." Angelica replied, making Sylphia and Baek Jimin smile.
"By the way, I didn’t expect some of those gates to have cultivators at High Grand Duke stage. If people like them attacked Earth, then only Bai Cangming would be able to stop them." Sylphia said.
"Their worlds possess much denser Heaven and Earth energy because their locations are much closer to the border of the Inner Realm. That is why their cultivation progress is far more advanced compared to Earth, which only recently entered the Hunter Era." Aldrian explained.
Sylphia and the others showed understanding expressions as they continued flying. A few moments later, they arrived in Shanghai. Aldrian decided to check on Mo Yuheng and his sister first.
But the moment he sensed Mo Yuheng’s location, he frowned.
