To Resist, or to Survive

Chen Shuangshuang remained silent.

She had already learned through the internet who her mother really was.

Her mother was the leader of the largest criminal syndicate in the world, the Swallowing Heaven Club.

But her father, unfortunately, was the world-recognized Hero of the Great Xia.

She knew.

A family with such a background could never live together in harmony.

She also understood why her father and mother had separated all those years ago.

But no matter what.

That was still her mother.

The mother who had loved her from childhood to now.

Whatever her mother's identity might be.

Shuangshuang still wished her mother could come back to life.

As for a warm and happy family, she no longer dared to dream of such a thing anymore.

She could only fantasize.

If only her father were not the Hero of the Great Xia, and her mother were not the boss of the Swallowing Heaven Club, and they were both just ordinary people.

How wonderful that would be.

Chen Feng's video speech had finally reached its final stage.

He took a deep breath, his gaze fixed firmly on the camera.

"I know many people might think we shouldn't willingly start a war against a Martial God over an uncertain future."

"But sometimes, even if we might fail, we can't just stand by and do nothing."

"I've thought about just settling for the status quo, but I have children, disciples, and friends."

"I can't imagine letting them live in a world ruled by a tyrant."

"And that tyrant is a Martial God, an immortal Martial God!"

"Before 11 o'clock tonight, the Kunlun Mountain Resurrection Plan will begin on schedule."

"I will lead from the front, and the Great Xia's Martial God, Yin Hu, will also make his move."

"I hope you won't be silent sheep, but will fight for your own destiny."

"Life spans a hundred years, mayflies live but a day. Will you fight, or will you merely survive? The choice is yours!"

The video speech ended.

At the same time, the Martial Arts Guild published the full details of this matter across the entire network.

A difficult choice was now laid before every person.

Stay silent, and pray the future won't be too terrible.

Or follow the Hero of the Great Xia, and gamble everything on one desperate struggle.

And the time they had to choose was not long.

Because at 11 o'clock tonight.

Would be the moment that decided their fate.

While many were still hesitating.

Large numbers of survivors from the Southern Continent had already begun their journey to the Great Xia.

"My family is all dead. I have no future left!"

"Everything was destroyed by that Martial God. We're going to take revenge!"

"Offer our hearts to the wronged souls of the Southern Continent, and offer our hearts to the Hero of the Great Xia."

"The Southern Continent will never be enslaved!"

All of this was within everyone's expectations.

Although the Hero of the Great Xia's call could move many people.

Those truly willing to sacrifice their lives were still only a tiny minority.

Most people were not only silent, but also clung to hope for luck, or a desire to reap what others sowed.

But the survivors from the Southern Continent were different.

They shared a blood debt with Su Yuanshan.

Add to that the Hero of the Great Xia's rallying cry.

It immediately ignited the flames in all the refugees from the Southern Continent.

The Martial Arts Guild sent many chartered planes out to pick people up from various places.

A brutal and bloody battle had almost become inevitable.

Those who didn't have the courage to go silently posted prayers online.

"I hope the Hero of the Great Xia can create another miracle!"

"Hero of the Great Xia, I'm sorry! I really want to join, but I have a newborn baby to take care of."

"My older brother went. He said the Hero of the Great Xia will definitely lead us to victory!"

"He's done it so many times before. If I still choose to cower in fear, I'd feel like I'd be letting him down. Hope we meet again!"

Kunlun Mountain Range.

Su Yuanshan laughed heartily.

His subordinate reminded him, "Brother Shan! Should we strike first to stop them?"

Su Yuanshan sneered.

"Why would we stop them?"

"When they come here, it only makes it easier for me to wipe them all out in one sweep."

"When the time comes, you all stay hidden and don't make a move."

He looked toward the dense storm clouds gathering in the south.

"This is the perfect opportunity to teach my great hero son-in-law a lesson."

Heaven's Capital.

The Wang family estate.

Wang Zun and Zhao Bing were both watching the news.

Zhao Bing said excitedly, "Let's go out tonight and kill to our hearts' content!"

"There are bound to be plenty of Swallowing Heaven Club small fries!"

Wang Zun shook his head. "More than likely, we'll be instantly killed by Su Yuanshan."

"It all depends on how strong Yin Hu really is."

"If worst comes to worst, I'll just have to force my tribulation."

He had already made up his mind.

If Yin Hu could not defeat Su Yuanshan.

He would undergo his heavenly tribulation on the spot, even if it meant death, he would still try to hold Su Yuanshan back for a moment.

Holy Capital.

Wei Guangming stared at Chen Feng on the news.

His expression was extremely complicated.

This former rival.

Later became a man who stood shoulder to shoulder with ancestor Wei Qianqiu.

And now, he had replaced Wei Qianqiu, shouldering the heavy burden of the Great Xia.

Wei Guangming understood.

Chen Feng's decision to smash a stone with an egg was already their absolute limit.

Even if ancestor Wei Qianqiu were still alive, the outcome might not have been much better.

Su Yuanshan's power had gone far beyond anything anyone could imagine.

Even a fellow Martial God like Aiden had been nothing but fodder beneath his feet.

Just like when ancestor Wei Qianqiu, long ago, had single-handedly taken down an ordinary Martial Saint.

The gap in strength was too vast.

Wei Guangming knew if tonight's plan failed.

Then would come the moment for him to pry open his ancestor's coffin.

Heaven's Capital.

At Yin Hu's residence, the place was now a lively scene of chaos.

Wang Hao had hired every famous chef in the entire Heaven's Capital.

"Hurry it up!"

"Make sure the old ancestor gets his fill!"

"Tonight, the old ancestor will definitely win!"

At this moment, Yin Hu, while enjoying the feast, silently complained in his heart, because his mouth had no time to waste on talking.

"Why didn't you do this earlier!"

"Now you're finally giving me a big meal?"

Dish after dish was brought to the table.

Yin Hu gorged himself.

Beside him, Wang Hao kept cheering him on.

"Old ancestor! You absolutely have to win!"

"If you win, you can eat whatever you want from now on!"

"I'll prepare you endless mountains of delicious food for the celebration!"

Yin Hu finally found a brief pause to reply.

"Then boil Chen Feng for me!"

"And make it extra spicy!"

"Use that crazy spicy sauce from last time!"

Wang Hao was taken aback.

"Huh? That..."

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the sun began to set, and the sky slowly grew dark.

Those who had joined the Resurrection Plan gradually arrived, one by one, at the cities surrounding the Kunlun Mountain Range.

Everyone deliberately chose not to proceed any further.

The Martial Arts Guild then received the latest news.

Su Yuanshan and his underlings.

Were now in the process of hollowing out the ground beneath the Kunlun Mountain Range.

Causing the area being excavated in search of the Ghost Grave Stone Coffin to expand continuously.

Everyone had been worried that Su Yuanshan would launch a preemptive strike.

Eliminating them all before midnight.

For this very reason, Chen Feng had even been kept hidden away.

But everything went unusually smoothly.

Nothing out of the ordinary happened.

The number of people joining this operation was extremely large.

Other than the majority being refugees from the Southern Continent, there were also many people from the Western Continent and the Northern Continent.

Of course, the number from the Great Xia was quite substantial too.

As for the exact number, at this point, it was impossible to calculate.

All that was known was that all these people had come with the resolve to die.
