Condemning the Heavens

Xue Wei's plan was actually pretty ruthless. He planned on using the many elites of the entire world as cannon fodder, but he had no other choice.

The most important thing for Xue Wei was the safety of his friends. As long as they were safe and able to live another day, they would be able to gather more strength, and one day, they would stand at the peak of the world.

This was their goal, but to reach the goal alone was not what Xue Wei wanted. He wanted to do so together with his friends and family, but as to the way there, he did not mind being ruthless.

Even if he had to build their foundation on corpses and blood, he would do it. Even if innocent people were slaughtered, he would not mind.

In his world, there were only two kinds of people, his people and everyone else. While he would not kill for fun, he would not mind killing as a means to reach his goals.

This was something he had realized many years ago. When he and Hei Gou were escaping through the Chang'an Continent, he was killing many innocent for the sake of covering their tracks, but he never felt guilty.

It was the same now. These elites had nothing to do with him, so using them as cannon fodder was, without a doubt, the best solution.

Xue Wei did not doubt that the others also wished to use such tactics. However, only his group had managed to hide, while all the others were in the midst of the chaos.

Xue Wei was curious as to what exactly was hiding beneath the Blue Phoenix Manor. The name of the manor made it sound as if there was a Blue Phoenix involved, but looking at the connection with Luoluo's inheritance, it should be a snake-like creature.

The tremor of the ground was growing increasingly intense, the cobblestone path was showing signs of breaking up, and all the buildings were beginning to collapse.

The wind began blowing fiercely, and Xue Wei looked around as he heard a bell-like sound.

The bell-like sound was loud and ringing throughout the entire place. Xue Wei felt his heart beating rapidly in fear when he heard the noise. It was clearly not an ordinary beast cry.

"Mingshe!" Luoluo and Bai Tianyi said at the same time. Both of them were spirits and had seen very many things throughout their long lives.

"Mingshe?" Xue Wei frowned. The first thing that arrived in his mind when he heard the word was Lan.

"A Mingshe is a snake-like creature. It is blue with four wings on it's back. It lives in the mountains where you can find gold and jade mines. When they arrive, then the wind will ripple through, the sound of their scream is a bell-like sound."

"Normally the Mingshe is calm and collected, it will only attack if its lair is attacked, but then it will become angry and aggressive.

"I think the Blue Phoenix Manor is its lair."

Xue Wei nodded his head. At that moment, the mountain behind the Blue Phoenix Manor cracked open, and a massive beast, a blue snake, flew out. Four majestic wings were on it's back, but the eyes, which should have been tranquil, were red and full of hatred.

"This is not going to be a simple fight," he muttered as he observed the massive snake hover in the air above the many elite geniuses of the many families of the world.

But these were truly the elite. All of them were calm even when facing this massive snake, all of them gathered in groups, and began chanting spells, using their treasures items and activated their protective shields and barriers.

The snake suddenly looked over, and the eyes landed on Xue Wei, or more precisely, Luoluo. Hatred was suddenly within the eyes of the snake, but it was currently being held in place by the geniuses.

"Seems like we cannot hide," Xue Wei sighed. "The snake wants to get here, but if it does, we will not stand a chance. Let's join all these heroes instead."

The others did not question Xue Wei but activated their items, and they all ran towards the battleground.

Gravel and ice were creating havoc in the entire area; the scene was chaotic. Small wounds were appearing on the snake's body, but they were nowhere near severe enough to harm it. It was merely minor annoyances.

But none of them had used their true killing moves yet either. However, it was clear that they were at a disadvantage.

Although Xue Wei had decided initially to stay out of the fight, now that he had decided to fight, he was going to do his utmost to fight the snake.

His eyes were flickering with a strange light as he lifted his hand. Flames appeared all over his hand, covering his fingers and playing around in his palm.

Xue Wei tossed the flame around him, creating a bit fiery shield. This melted all the ice that was coming towards him, and it also blocked the gravel.

Standing in the middle of the battlefield, Xue Wei looked around. He felt somewhat surreal, and as if something was wrong. This snake was clearly aiming or Luoluo, but why would it hate her so much? Was it because of her inheritance?

Also, why would a mingshe be living in the Blue Phoenix Manor?

Xue Wei was not in a hurry to make his move, so he spread the flaming shield to cover all his friends.

They were all confused as to why Xue Wei was so leisurely and casual in the middle of this fight. Was there something they did not know?
