Chapter 655 Ancient World (21)
The many gods behind him all revealed different expressions after the golden man said this.
There had actually been many gods that had opposed bringing Lin Fan into this matter since they had heard about his many deeds. The gods were all powerful and could naturally get all the information they wanted about Lin Fan, but the only thing that they couldn't do was find Lin Fan's true intentions.
No matter how they tried reading into his actions, it all seemed random to them.
It was like he wasn't thinking anything, he just did whatever he thought about or considered was right for the time.
Such a volatile person couldn't be relied on to take care of the Outers.
But in the end, the golden man had made the decision to bring Lin Fan into the group they were gathering to fight the Outers.
As the leader, he had plenty of influence among the gods and his word had been the final say about Lin Fan.
But now, when the gods finally met Lin Fan, they started having their doubts again.
Even with their power, they actually weren't able to see through Lin Fan's soul at all. They couldn't predict what he was planning…It was almost as if his entire existence was shrouded in mystery.
After the golden man said this, he revealed a smile and said, "I hope that you will not disappoint me."
Then with those words, he turned to leave without turning back once.
All the other gods took another look at Lin Fan before following this golden man.
When the gods left, everyone let out a long sigh of relief.
The aura that the gods revealed, it really was too much for them…
There were many people that had almost crumbled under the aura that these gods released.
But once the gods were gone, there was a new problem to deal with.
Everyone started looking at Lin Fan with complicated looks as they remembered what the gods had said.
Lin Fan was someone who was close to becoming a god…
It was already hard enough to predict what this Demon Lord would do, so they could imagine what it would be like once he became a god.
That was where the dilemma came in.
Should they forget everything that had happened in the past and try to befriend him or should they find a way to take care of him before that happened?
They hadn't been able to deal with him individually, but if they combined all their powers together to take care of him…Perhaps that would work…
But they also had to think about the invasion of the Outers first, so it was impossible for them to take care of Lin Fan right now. After all, as the gods had said, Lin Fan was their greatest weapon against the Outers.
Facing these Outers with unknown powers, it was best to keep the strongest weapon at hand instead of trying to drive it away.
Lin Fan could tell what they were thinking with just a single look, but he didn't care about them. The only thing that he cared about was what that golden man had said just now.
It was clear by the tone of his voice that he knew that Lin Fan had come here with ulterior motives, but all that mattered now was how much did he know?
Lin Fan did have a plan and it was a plan that he was certain that no one had any ideas about, but now it seemed like that golden man did have some clues about his plan.
If that was the case, Lin Fan would have to think about abandoning that plan…
After thinking about it though, Lin Fan still decided to go through with his plan.
It was the best opportunity that he would get and even if he failed, he would still at least achieve a part of his goal and that was enough for him. At the very least, he would get to take his revenge for those people that he had almost forgotten about.
It would all happen soon.
…
Some time passed and still everyone chose to avoid Lin Fan.
They didn't want to make any rash moves and offend this Demon Lord, so instead of befriending him right now, most of the experts had chosen to observe him to wait for their chance.
It was just too bad that their chance never came.
After a long period of silence, there was a sudden roar that came from the group of Beast Race experts.
There was one expert that stood up at first, but then there were several different experts that all stood up at the same time, letting out roars.
After they finished roaring, all of them turned to Lin Fan with bloodshot eyes.
The experts of the other races didn't know what had happened, but they could guess that something had happened and it was something between the Demon Lord and the Beast Race.
Lin Fan just casually watched them as they walked over towards him.
The lead Beast Race expert pointed his finger at Lin Fan and roared out, "Demon Lord, you've gone too far this time! Our Beast Race can no longer co-exist with you!"
Lin Fan just leaned back against the rock that he was sitting on and looked up at them with a calm look as he said, "Oh, is that so?"
Seeing how relaxed he was, all of the Beast Race experts were filled with even more rage.
The leader of the Beast Race experts pointed his hand right at Lin Fan and roared out, "You!"
As he roared out, all the Beast Race experts that followed him released their auras along with him.
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, all the experts of the other races prepared themselves for a fight. However, not a single person made a move because they didn't know who to support here.
One would imagine that the human experts would back Lin Fan since he was a human and he was fighting their greatest enemy, the Beast Race, but not a single human expert came forward.
In fact, they actually wanted Lin Fan to fight the Beast Race and take each other out since that would be killing two birds with one stone like that.
But before the two sides could clash, there was another flash of light before several figures appeared.
The same pressure that they felt before fell onto them again and the Beast Race experts couldn't help taking a step back since the figures had appeared in front of them, so they were feeling the brunt of this aura.
Well, it wasn't that the figures appeared in front of them since the figures weren't even facing them.
All the gods had gathered right in front of Lin Fan and they were looking down at him as he sat there.
The lead god, the golden man had a very serious look on his face as he stared down at Lin Fan who was very relaxed looking up at them.
After a long silence, the golden man suddenly asked, "Why did you do it?"
Lin Fan looked up at the golden man and asked back in a relaxed voice, "Do what?"
The golden man knitted his brows when he heard this, but he didn't say anything since he knew that it was useless talking to Lin Fan like this.
Instead, he chose another approach to talk to Lin Fan as he said, "Do you know what you've done for our universe. Because of you, we've lost quite a few experts that could have helped us resist the Outers. Do you know what you've done to this universe?"
Lin Fan looked right at him and said, "And what does that have to do with me?"
The golden man's brows knit even more when he heard this, but he didn't make a move still.
It was at this time that Lin Fan finally stood up and turned his gaze away from the golden man, turning his gaze to the Beast Race experts that had wanted to make a move against him previously.
When the Beast Race experts saw Lin Fan stand up, they couldn't help feeling a chill run down their backs, but they quickly calmed themselves down. After all, there were gods on their side.
No matter how strong the Demon Lord was, it wasn't as if he could beat the gods.
But as Lin Fan came towards them step by step, the gods never made a move which filled their hearts with fear.
The leader of the Beast Race experts raised his weapon and pointed it at Lin Fan as he said in a trembling voice, "What are you planning on doing?"
The reason they had acted so arrogantly before was because they knew that the gods would be on their side.
In a time like this where they were dealing with threats from the Outer, if someone were to hurt their own universe, the gods would never allow them to do so. So they had thought that the gods would take care of Lin Fan.
But this situation now made it seem like the gods weren't going to do a thing…
Lin Fan didn't answer this question.
Instead, it was the golden man who asked, "Have you really thought through your actions?"
Lin Fan ignored him as well as he continued moving towards the Beast Race experts. As he came closer and closer, he waved his hand and summoned out his pets around him.
As they came out, one of the pets that was one of his seven supreme pets, a jet black crow landed on his shoulder. When it saw the people that Lin Fan was heading towards, this crow suddenly revealed a smile as it asked Lin Fan, "Is it finally time?"
Lin Fan gave a nod before suddenly flying forward.
Without a single word, he suddenly had a sword made purely of crow feathers appear in his hand.
In one swift motion, he cut down the leader of the Beast Race experts, causing blood to spurt out everywhere.
The leader of the Beast Race expert had tried to protect himself with his own laws, but it had been meaningless in front of the sword made purely of crow feathers.
It was as if the sword had corroded his laws and made them disappear, as if they had never existed.
The leader of the Beast Race expert couldn't even say anything as he fell to the ground and his eyes dimmed, showing that he had lost all signs of life.
Everyone held their breath as they looked at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan just stared right at the Beast Race experts and said, "Any last words?"
