Lu Jing took a deep breath and looked very seriously at Jiang Ning. So was this a good thing or a bad thing?

But if Jiang Ning had that sort of guess, then it probably wasn't anything good.

Things were often like this. The more one knew, the more dangerous and uneasy one would become.

"But if it's really like this, then what can we do?" he sighed.

He was just a scholar and couldn't help Jiang Ning with anything besides doing research on these matters.

This was a big matter, and it could be something that could possibly affect all of humanity. The worst part was that they couldn't publicize this matter at all, otherwise this could raise public alarm.

In other words, Jiang Ning had to take all of this upon himself.

He's really a hero, thought Lu Jing to himself.

If there were really heroes in this world, then it had to be Jiang Ning. He didn't know exactly how much this young man had taken upon himself all these years, but he knew that whatever he was going to take on next was going to be way too much for himself.Content provided by .

"I'm afraid there's nothing we can do," said Jiang Ning after going into deep thought for a while.

He wasn't kidding. There was really nothing they could do now.

The Heavenly Palace had been destroyed, and even though the Longevity Pond still existed and looked like it might be able to revive the place, reviving all of the Heavenly Palace was really too difficult. Besides, Greedy Wolf was still alive.

This was something that puzzled Jiang Ning greatly. He had gone missing and Jiang Ning couldn't sense his presence anymore, but he still came out alive anyway. Jiang Ning was sure that Greedy Wolf must have had a supernatural

encounter like himself.

If it were someone else, Jiang Ning wouldn't be worried. But he knew what sort of person Greedy Wolf was.

The extent of his ambition, viciousness and overbearing nature was difficult for anyone to imagine.

What would someone like him to if he obtained a limitless amount of power?

Jiang Ning couldn't predict that for sure.

"I really can't imagine how insane this world really is anymore," said Lu Jing with a bitter laugh. He looked at all the information before him, which he had painstakingly sorted out over all these years. This information could be said to be worth millions, but it could also be completely worthless.

"No matter how insane it gets, there's a limit," said Jiang Ning. "You don't have to be too worried."

He fiddled with his paper cup.

"I'll take care of it," said Jiang Ning.

He was the only one who could settle this matter.

The most urgent matter at hand was to find out where Greedy Wolf had gone. He was a time bomb that could go off at any time, and nobody could predict when.

Jiang Ning got up. "I won't disturb you any longer. Let me know if you've got anything."

With that, Jiang Ning left. Lu Jing sat by himself for a long time without saying anything. It was hard to say what he was thinking about.

After suddenly receiving so much information that confirmed his guesses, it was hard to accept everything so quickly. Ordinary folks might have not been able to accept it at all. Brother Gou was waiting at the door when Jiang Ning walked out.

He opened the car door for Jiang Ning.

"How are you guys coming along in your training?" asked Jiang Ning.

"We're stable now and with guidance from Master, we've managed to break through our bottleneck. But we want to become even stronger," said Brother Gou as he drove.

Their gifting was limited, and everyone knew this. But none of them gave up the possibility of becoming stronger because of this. Humans could defy their fates. That's what they constantly told themselves.

Before Jiang Ning came along,

everyone looked down on them and

thought they were hopeless. Only

Jiang Ning believed in them and gave them a chance to grow. Otherwise, who would have thought a bunch of ordinary men would reach where they were today?

"Opportunities come with risk," said Jiang Ning. "The choice is in your hands."

"We might have to face a truly violent battle ahead, and we might lose some

people, including myself," he said very calmly. "I know none of you will be afraid, but you still ought to be mentally prepared."

Jiang Ning wasn't afraid either. He

Pret

was a victor of many battles and was no longer affected by death. Now that he had gone through a transformation, he knew even more clearly than before how heavy the responsibility on his shoulders was.
