Chapter 3475 Founder Alstreim's Sacrifice

Founder Alstreim looked proud, "I'm so prideful of you that I can't hold my horses and did something- no, going to do something of my own volition to repay you. After all, if it weren't for you, my children and their families would still be in dire straits because I wasn't as powerful as you to lead them out of poverty."

"What I'm going to do is open up a stable path for you to go get your mother and your family and bring them back without any trouble. I will die because I assume this needs a significant sacrifice on my part, but please don't blame Fairy Thunderblaze for it. I have a feeling that if I let go of this chance, then I would never be able to repay you in my lifetime as you just keep getting stronger and stronger that even the major powers don't dare to pick a fight with you anymore."

He uttered wryly, pausing for a moment before he gestured back.

"Even this fairy isn't willing to allow me to sacrifice myself for you since she thinks her life would be endangered.

Founder Alstreim Windstorm chuckled, "Don't be mad about my demise. Just think of it as me repaying your mother for giving birth to you. With this, she would be reunited with her favorite child as well and, hopefully, wouldn't chop up my dead body for not being able to protect you when the major powers tried to hunt you."

He went silent for a moment as though waiting for Fairy Thunderblaze to speak, but seeing that she didn't speak anything, he shrugged.

"This fairy is smarter than any woman I had ever seen, so it would be in your best interest to make her your close ally or even- hehem. I mean, do not get on her bad side. Anyway, let my family know that their father loves them and would meet in the next life if I had one after pulling this kind of stunt. I had also written a letter to each of them and also you in my chamber where I am still supposedly in seclusion, so…"

Founder Alstreim Windstorm appeared like he wanted to say something but sighed, "I guess… this is goodbye. Just remember what's important, and don't forget to take care of my family."

He smiled quite peacefully, rubbing the bridge of his nose before the projection faded.

By this time, the hand that was holding the Imagery Crystal was shuddering.

Davis's expression was not good. He didn't even know if he felt like he was moved, angered, enraged, or all of the above. He clenched his teeth in frustration, wondering why Founder Alstreim Windstorm didn't come to consult him.

And then, the answer quickly came because he wouldn't allow it, causing him to almost destroy the Imagery Crystal due to his physical body's prowess but forcefully calmed himself down, taking a deep breath before he turned to look at Fairy Thunderblaze, who hovered in the skies with a faint smile on her face.

"I don't care why he did it or for what reason you allowed him to become like this without consulting me, but if he's dead, you're dead."

"I know you would kill me if he was dead, so rest assured."

Fairy Thunderblaze giggled, "However, the number of people you bring back determines how much lifespan he would lose, so in another perspective, the more people you bring back, the more feet you would be using to trample on his life."

"…"

Davis's eyes widened as he glared at her. He raised his hand, bringing out Yama. Its long, curved blade caused Fairy Thunderblaze's heart to skip a beat as she took a step back.

However, Davis turned to cast a glance at Founder Alstreim Windstorm and moved towards him, summoning reincarnation energy to free him from this strange prison of karma. He guessed if his life was intact, then it wasn't too late to get him out of it, as the path was yet to be used.

"I suggest you don't do that because his wish was for you to not lose your light."

Fairy Thunderblaze's voice resounded.

It made Davis pause for a moment, but only for a moment, before he continued walking in the air, heading towards Founder Alstreim Windstorm.

"Also, his life is now tied to the path, so if he is taken away, then the path completely destabilizes and collapses altogether. You would lose your chance to-"

Fairy Thunderblaze's figure flickered into an arc of annihilative heavenly lightning as the deadly scythe flew past her.

She successfully dodged it but felt her heart pound as she felt that it was too close for comfort.

She appeared in another direction, appearing frozen as she realized he really went for the kill.

The scythe spun around the fog before it arrived in his grasp.

"What is your intention in having this path open in the first place? What do you hope to achieve by returning to the Grand Beginnings Continent? If you can't answer it, then fuck our debt. I will kill you and find another way, even if it harms our progress."

Davis strode forward, his gaze full of threat as he walked towards her, his presence thick with the scent of death, his entire being intimidating while he held the scythe.

"Do I really have to say it? I'd rather not…"

Fairy Thunderblaze looked away, her gaze turning complex. However, Davis didn't stop to consider and still strode forward. With two more steps, he was upon Fairy Thunderblaze and slowly swung his scythe.

"Father…"

Just when the scythe's deadly blade was upon her neck, she uttered, making Davis stop at the final moment. His eyes narrowed, expecting more from her, but seeing her stay silent, he pressed down the scythe more, causing blood to drip down her neck.

"I am going to pay respects to the tomb where my father is buried. Is that not allowed for me?"

Fairy Thunderblaze trembled, glaring at him before she flicked her hand. Annihilative lightning and flames backed by her King-Tier prowess exploded at the tip of her finger when she touched the deadly blade that was nicking her neck.

*Bang!~*

The scythe was sent flying from Davis's hand as his hold seemed to have loosened.

"Why me!?"

Yama's voice echoed with a grievance before it flew around and returned to Davis's grasp.

Fairy Thunderblaze clenched her teeth yet still explained why she made this plan millions of years ago.

It was to go see her father because she knew that when the time for Candidacy came, turmoil would be commonplace, and even the barrier sealing the Fifty-Two Territories would be harmed or, at the very least, wouldn't be intact, so she left a part of her blood in the fog over the other side so that she could create a bridge later on, or now to go pay respects to her father one last time before she entered the true immortal world.

"…"

Hearing all this, Davis didn't blink once, his expression still cold.

But shockingly enough, he didn't feel any lies from her even though he used his Heart Intent at full force. This woman really planned this all from millions of years ago just so she could go see her dead father and pay respects?

"Are you sure you're not saying only one truth and leaving something else aside?" He coldly asked, still staring at her like a serpent that was watching its prey.

"Then why don't you follow me and see for yourself?"

Fairy Thunderblaze also looked at him coldly. Her amused expression or playful eyes were nowhere to be seen.

They glared at each other. Davis still tried to see through her, but it was in vain. He felt like he needed to go see those letters to see if Founder Alstreim Windstorm was manipulated or not.

Eventually, he turned around and left, but his voice resounded.

"We'll meet tomorrow at this time."
