Chapter 573: 5 Seconds, Just 5 Seconds

Xiang Yuntian left the tech division.

He decided to give up the position that he had just taken up. At the same time, he would shamefully apologize and beg Ji to take over.

Xiang Yuntian didn’t need to find any reporters as there were a bunch of them who were already waiting.

When they saw Xiang Yuntian come out, they surrounded him.

Before they said anything, Xiang Yuntian spoke first.

“Reporters, I am useless. At the most dangerous moment for the Alliance, I’m not able to come up with a solution. I have failed the trust and support of the people. I will resign from my position and at the same time, only Commander Ji can lead the Alliance out of this. Please Ji can you not worry about the past, for the sake of the Alliance and the people, please help us.”

Xiang Yuntian lowered his head and bowed to everyone in front of the camera.

He had tried his best. Even if he was unwilling to do that, he had to do it for the future of Alliance. For personal gain and one’s own interest, one would only do stupid things.

The reporters stood rooted to the spot.

It was as if Xiang Yuntian’s words totally shocked them.

They didn’t expect that they would get such explosive news.

At this moment, the reporters outside Ji’s villa didn’t leave. All of them found out about Xiang Yuntian’s speech.

When they found out, they were shocked.

“All of us shout together, we need the commander.” Someone suggested.

Very quickly, this plan gained everyone’s support.

They shouted loudly. They hoped that the commander could hear it and solve the problem that the Alliance was facing.

At that moment, Ji was in his villa. He heard the shouts from outside but was still really calm. There was no change at all.

To him, this was expected.

But it was not enough.

Not long later, Ji felt like it was enough. He got up and walked towards the entrance. He was dressed like a normal person; he wasn’t as overbearing and majestic as before when he was the commander.

When the reporters and people saw that the commander had come out, they exclaimed in excitement.

“Guys, I am just a normal person, so why are you making things hard for me?” Ji asked.

But for the reporters and people, they felt that only Ji could save them. This was why no matter what Ji said, Ji was still the commander in their hearts.

“Commander, the Alliance is in big trouble. Xiang Yuntian can’t solve it, so only you can.”

“Right, Commander please take up the role again.”

Actually, these people didn’t have their own thoughts. They were the ones who wanted Ji to resign and now that the Alliance was in trouble, they were the ones who begged for Ji to come back. In the end, it was just because the research division members were unreliable.

Thinking about it, the old one was more reliable.

Right as Ji was going to say something, Xiang Yuntian got out of the car.

His appearance shocked everyone. Why was Xiang Yuntian here?

Xiang Yuntian walked in front of Ji and said sincerely, “Ji, I hope that you can become the commander once more. I overestimated myself. Actually, I am only suitable for research and not in managing the Alliance.”

One could say that Xiang Yuntian had totally lowered his head.

Moreover, he placed down his pride and face, lowering his head and admitting his mistakes.

Ji shook his head and sighed, “I wanted to really retire but I didn’t expect such a thing would happen. Forget it, I can’t see the Alliance face such a catastrophe. Let’s go back to the tech division.”

“Tech division?” When he said this, everyone was stunned. What was the point?

Ji said, “We shouldn’t be split into tech faction and cultivation faction. We should be one to support one another.”

After this matter, Ji realized a problem. That was that he couldn’t underestimate the research division.

Naturally, he wanted the relationship between both factions to get better.

“Let’s go, time is of the essence. We can’t waste any time.” Commander Ji said.

Tech Research Division.

With the commander there, Xiang Yuntian wanted to leave but he was stopped.

“I need your help, the Alliance needs your help too.”

Commander’s words caused Xiang Yuntian’s heart to change. Undescribable emotions filled his heart. Maybe after this matter, the cultivator faction and tech division’s relationship would change.

....

Wu Zhige was waiting. He wasn’t waiting for Lin Fan to come but for Commander Ji’s orders.

He knew that commander wouldn’t ignore this situation.

As expected, he saw the latest news and smiled. Xiang Yuntian retiring was a smart choice; only then could they protect the Alliance.

Without experiencing such a battle, one wouldn’t understand how terrifying such a strong enemy was.

Di di!

Wu Zhige immediately received communications.

“Yes, yes, I understand.”

Commander contacted him to counter-attack Lin Fan.

Wu Zhige didn’t hesitate. He stepped into the dimension and rushed towards the location that Commander told him.

Based on what Commander said, he wanted him to draw Lin Fan into an area far from the city. The Alliance would fight Lin Fan to the death there.

Tech Research Division.

Commander’s expression was solemn as he was deep in thought.

On the contrary, Xiang Yuntian looked at Commander in shock. He knew that place that was mentioned. He was filled with disbelief but he didn’t say anything.

Wu Zhige was quick and arrived at that location really quickly.

This place was barren and covered in yellow sand. One couldn’t see any humans here and there were no plants at all. It was as if this place was a region of death.

Receiving the call.

“Commander, I have arrived.” Wu Zhige said.

“Okay, understood.”

Instantly, Wu Zhige released his aura. A terrifying aura charged into the land and then he took in a deep breath, shouting towards where Lin Fan was.

“Lin Fan, I will wait here for you.”

His voice spread through the space, transmitting over at a scary speed.

Very far away, Lin Fan raised his head and looked out. Just now, he sensed a familiar aura charging into the sky. Although one couldn’t see it with the naked eye, for experts like him that aura led him over.

Not long later, a voice spread into his ears.

“Keke, Wu Zhige, you couldn’t take it anymore?” Lin Fan didn’t hesitate. He rushed towards that side. For him, everything that he had been going through was just too boring.

Now that Wu Zhige appeared, he could finally have some fun, especially Wu Zhige’s animosity with him, that was quite deep.

In the distance, Wu Zhige stood and waited. He didn’t know what would happen next but if Lin Fan came to cause trouble in Alliance, as one of the strongest nine-star generals, he had to worry about it.

Not long later.

“Hahaha, Wu Zhige, you really have balls. You came alone?’

Instantly, the dimension ripped open and Lin Fan walked out.

He looked around and didn’t notice anyone else.

“So what if I am alone? Lin Fan, you are too much; you actually came to cause trouble in the Alliance.” Wu Zhige hollered in rage.

Lin Fan said, “Isn’t it normal for me to come here? Like how the Alliance came to my land. But if you are alone, then it is not enough. You will die.”

Wu Zhige laughed, “What is so scary about death? Even if I die, there will still be people to deal with you.”

....

Tech Research Division.

The commander looked towards the desert, at Lin Fan and Wu Zhige facing off. He had a solemn expression and was hesitating but very quickly he made his mind up.

At such a time, sacrifice was necessary.

“Commander, are you...” Xiang Yuntian wanted to say something but before he finished, Commander interrupted him.

The commander contacted Wu Zhige.

The moment the call was received, one could hear Wu Zhige’s soft voice.

“Commander, what is next? Are the others here? Or, do I need to delay time? This kid is too strong. I can’t block him alone.”

Listening to Wu Zhige’s voice, one could hear how scared he was.

If this was before when they fought one versus one, he wouldn’t be afraid.

But it was different now.

It was as if this kid had taken drugs; he had become so strong. If they really clashed with one another, he wouldn’t be able to hold on for too long.

Commander’s throat felt like it was being choked. He wanted to say something but he found it hard. He gritted his teeth and then said, “Brother Wu, I am sorry.”

Wu Zhige was stunned, “Commander, why?”

Commander said with a low voice, “5 seconds, we only need 5 seconds. I really don’t want this. But if we gather the whole Alliance, we still will be no match for him, so... Brother Wu, I owe you. I will be your cow or horse in the next life to repay you.”

In the desert, the hand that Wu Zhige was holding the communication device with shook and then he laughed.

“Good, no worries, look at me kill this kid.”

Pata!

Wu Zhige hung up.

He understood.

He knew why Commander told him to come here because this was the Alliance’s hope. At the same time, he was someone who Lin Fan hated. As long as he released his aura and Lin Fan sensed it, he would definitely come over.

If someone asked Wu Zhige, are you afraid of dying?

Wu Zhige would make his head explode.

Wasn’t that just nonsense?

Who wasn’t?

But for Wu Zhige, if sacrificing him could solve the Alliance’s most terrifying enemy, that would be worth it, really worth it.

“Lin Fan, actually I regret killing your mother and not killing you. If I killed you, then these things would never have happened.” Wu Zhige said.

Lin Fan squinted and looked at him with a cold expression.

It seemed like he was really asking to die.

“Come, I heard that you wiped the four alliances. I really don’t believe that you have such an ability. Let me see whether or not you were bragging.” Wu Zhige laughed out loud. He didn’t care about Lin Fan at all.

Peng!

Instantly, Lin Fan disappeared and attacked Wu Zhige.

Just at that moment.

The desert shook.

Lin Fan lowered his head and sensed danger. Although he didn’t know what it was, it was definitely really dangerous.

He thought back to how Wu Zhige dared to find him alone.

There was definitely a problem.

Suddenly, Wu Zhige appeared in front of Lin Fan. He reached out and wanted to hug Lin Fan but he slapped forwards.

Puchi!

* *

Wu Zhige spat out blood but he didn’t dodge it. He gritted his teeth and hugged Lin Fan.

“Kid, let’s die together.”
