Chapter 1056 Killing Intent Gradually Emerges

Hearing those words sent a shiver down his spine, and a complex expression immediately appeared on his face.

But he quickly realized that Gongshu De's words were an affirmation of him.

The complicated expression quickly vanished, replaced by a kind and honest smile.

"Hehe, old man Gongshu, what are you saying? People always have to grow. If I stay in the same place my whole life, how can I lead, no, how can I progress together with everyone?"

"We still have a long way to go. I don't say that I hold a pivotal position in the organization, but at least my actions can influence many colleagues."

“I must set a good example for those so-called warmongers, don’t you think?”

His trembling speech conveyed a sense of profound change, as if he had been away for three days and was now looking at someone with new eyes.

Of course, Zhan Li also knew that the old man Gongshu had come to him not just to praise him, but there must be something else he wanted to tell him.

He then asked the old man Gongshu if there was anything else he needed to tell him.

"It's not particularly difficult. I suddenly remembered that for our information system to operate successfully, the most crucial part needs to be engraved with a special material. This special material is not produced on this planet. We need to make one last trip to that planet. Don't worry, there are hardly any people on the planet we're going to. It's very safe."

Upon hearing Gongshu De's words, Zhan Li revealed a simple and honest smile.

After racking my brains, a sudden inspiration struck me and I remembered something.

“Old man Gongshu, think about what else needs to be explained. If there are any special materials that need to be obtained, let’s plan the route in advance and get everything safely. After all, we’re not on our own territory now, so we have to be careful and make some plans in advance.”

Trembling's remarks sounded like something out of another world.

When did this big, belligerent man in front of me become so cautious?

Coupled with his honest smile, Gongshu De, the old man who had worked with him for thousands of years, almost didn't recognize him. Could this be the kind of thing that guy who only knew how to fight and kill could say?

The old man Gongshu was naturally delighted with the change in his trembling.

After all, this is a good thing for the Dark Rising organization.

But he always felt that something was wrong, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

After collecting all the materials, Zhanli and his group headed to Planet 478 as instructed by the old man Gongshude.

Right now, Lin Yi is sparring with the Great Sage in his own inner arena.

Under the tutelage of Wuzhiqi and the Great Sage, Lin Yi gradually mastered the essence of combat skills and applied these skills in practice in every battle.

Over time, Lin Yi became more adept at controlling and utilizing divine power, and his application of it became more skillful. He was even able to hold his own against the Great Sage for more than a dozen moves without being at a disadvantage.

Just as the two were locked in a fierce battle, Lin Yi's senses suddenly activated—someone was coming!

He quickly withdrew from the inner area, concealing his aura, and silently hid among a pile of ore.

"This isn't the same scent. Why does it feel so familiar? I thought someone had come to arrest me."

Lin Yi's perception ability is outstanding.

Before Zhanli and the others discovered him, he had already determined the identity of the newcomer.

I thought a fierce battle was inevitable, but it turned out to be one of our own.

"No, you two!"

Just as Lin Yi was about to reveal his identity and reunite with Zhan Li and the others, he suddenly sensed another powerful aura—Gongshu De, one of the Seven Heroes.

Two of the Seven Heroes have come to this godforsaken place. What are they planning to do?
I have made many contributions to Anxing, opening an era that shook the rule of the gods with the Heavenly Brahma Sound, and successfully bringing Anxing into the sight of the Three Realms and Six Paths.

Even so, Lin Yi believed that his status had not risen to the point where he needed two heroes to greet him.

Could it be that Anxing knew about my actions, repaired the information system without notifying me, thus locking down my location and intending to kill me, which is why he sent two top experts to ambush me?

That’s not right either.

Lin Yi thought about it carefully. He didn't seem to have done anything too outrageous to Anxing, so they didn't need to act this way.

This illogical scene made Lin Yi abandon his idea of ​​directly joining up with the members of Dark Rising. He wanted to see what Dark Rising was planning to do now that two great heroes had arrived.

After arranging for guards, Zhanli used his senses to check the situation on planet 478. After some investigation, he found nothing unusual.

"Alright, old man Gongshu, we've arrived on this planet as you requested. What other materials do you need? Just tell me, and I'll have them get things done."

The trembling words left the old man Gongshu momentarily speechless.

He really didn't know what other resources were needed, after all, the fortune teller had mentioned life-saving materials, and where could one find such things?

To avoid arousing suspicion, the old man Gongshu randomly chose a material that was not easy to mine, hoping to delay as much as possible.

Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding~

Soon, a new round of material mining began.

With nothing else to do, Zhan Li took out two reclining chairs from his personal space and invited Gongshu De to sit down.

"Time really flies. Before we knew it, we've been working together for thousands of years, old man Gongshu."

The tremor that had been pressing down on him broke the silence, prompting him to speak first.

"I still remember when I first joined the main weaving company, it was you who recommended me. At that time, I was just an unknown junior. Although I had some skills, I was not good enough to catch the eye of Anxing. It was you, old man Gongshu, who gave me this opportunity, allowing me to enter Anxing and obtain so many resources, which is why I am where I am today."

He trembled and sighed, a nostalgic look on his face.

Upon hearing this, Gongshu De smiled.

Yes, thousands of years have passed, and I can hardly remember the things that happened when we first met.

Gongshu smiled slightly, patted Shivering's shoulder, and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face.

Thousands of years may sound like a long time, but for Gongshu De, it seems to have passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the course of thousands of years, the old man Gongshu dedicated himself to the development of the organization, devote his time to planning various projects and developing various equipment, and he always felt that he didn't have enough time.

Having achieved high-level divine power, they are no longer affected by the passage of time. Their appearance has remained unchanged for thousands of years, so it is not surprising that thousands of years pass in the blink of an eye.

The passage of time has not diminished the old man Gongshu's initial enthusiasm.

He remained steadfast in his commitment to the Dark Star organization, and he never abandoned his ideal of leading its members to a life of freedom.

Time cannot change things, but the human heart can.

Over these thousands of years, Gongshu De witnessed far too much of the ugliness of human nature.

He increasingly felt that the chairman's original intention to leave the Dark Rising organization was not without reason.

Persistent struggle may only lead to a vicious cycle of repetitive changes.

The ugliness of human nature can erode all lofty ideals. Perhaps the reason I couldn't understand those ugly acts back then was simply because I didn't stand at a high enough level.

"Yes, it's been thousands of years. In these thousands of years, you have made rapid progress. Even I didn't expect that a mere boy could become the representative of the secret trembling."

In Gongshu's eyes, a touch of elder's kindness appeared.

What appeared to be a warm and comforting look to others was now seen as extremely ironic by the trembling man.

"This young man fought his way up to this position through his own abilities and passion. In these thousands of years, he believes he has lived up to the expectations of the organization, everyone, and especially you!"

At this point, the expression on his trembling face completely changed, becoming sharp and extremely murderous.

The last few words of his speech were delivered in a chilling tone.

"What, old man Gongshu, are you trying to use your elimination to make everyone more disappointed in me? Heh, you damned old man, I really underestimated you."
