Over The World, Beyond Heaven

"Then what does Little Comrade Zheng-Fu want from my Zi Clan?" Learning about Zheng-Fu's background, Zi-Dong-Lei immediately understood why Zheng-Fu had to be so mysterious. It turned out that he did not belong to this continent, but from another dimension that they did not know about. However, even knowing that truth, he did not change his previous admiration and respect for Zheng-Fu. On the contrary, he showed even more sincerity and determination when asked again about what Zheng-Fu wanted.

"Actually, the reason I helped you guys was because I had hoped that when I returned to Deity Land, Zi Clan would go with me and become part of my clan. From what I have learned, only a few Human Race clans are left in this Eternal Dimension. Most of the population here are Demon Races and Demon Monster Beasts. Therefore, I intended to bring the Human Race back with me. However, it also depends on whether those humans are good or bad and whether they can be of use to me!"

Zheng-Fu did not hide his desires at all. Because when the time came to tell the truth, he would have to tell everything anyway. So, he thought it would be better to tell them from the beginning. If Zi Clan did not agree, he would not have to invest and put in any more effort. He would only hurry to complete his mission and leave that dimension.

Umm!!!

"Is that what you want?"

Zi-Dong-Lei seemed quite troubled when he heard Zheng-Fu's request. And it was not only Zi-Dong-Lei who felt troubled and hesitant. The others in his clan were also the same. Everyone had been there for a long time. Moreover, Zi Clan was now the clan that ruled the city. If they decided to follow Zheng-Fu, what about the power and strength they had accumulated?

Yes!

"This is what I want. Otherwise, I would not have helped you and your clan. And of course, besides your Zi Clan, Ma Clan was another clan that I wanted to follow me!" Zheng-Fu nodded and confirmed his answer again firmly and seriously. He looked very different from before, calm and cool, as if he were not the same Zheng-Fu.

"What about the people in Black Rock City? Will they go with you?"

Elder Zi-Liang asked after a moment of hesitation. He already knew about Black Rock City. And the one who told everyone about the story of Black Rock City was Zi Hu-Yin who had been there for the past three or four days. She was very happy and at ease while she was there. So, she wanted to let everyone in the clan know that Black Rock City was now a city of the Human Race. And it became like that because of Zheng-Fu's help.

"Of course, they must go too. I have already let Lin Clan Leader gather those who were interested in leaving there. However… not everyone can go with me. I'll only take those who are useful to me. I won't take anyone who is useless. And if anyone only wants to take advantage of me…, I'll let them know what the hell is like!"

Ah!!!

Even a fool could understand the meaning of Zheng-Fu's words. Right now, they were all receiving benefits without giving Zheng-Fu anything back. Therefore, those words were indirectly forcing them to follow him to Deity Land as repayment.

"Is there no other choice, Little Comrade?!"

Zi-Dong-Lei felt even more troubled and anguished. He could not abandon Demon's Hill City and his people. Although they were Demon Race members, they were not all bad. There were also many good people.

"I'll say it again, City Governor. I won't stay here forever. I'll only take those who are useful to my clan. It doesn't matter which race they're from. As long as they're loyal and honest, that's enough. As for those who have already benefited from me, since I can give them, I can also take them back! Now…, I think you all need some time to think about it. I won't bother you anymore. If possible, you should invite Ma Clan to discuss this matter with you too, so that I don't have to repeat it myself. Well, I'll be off first!"

Umm...

Zi-Dong-Lei wanted to say something to Zheng-Fu, but when he saw Zheng-Fu's cold and solemn expression, he thought it would be best not to say anything at that time and let Zheng-Fu walk away, leaving only silence.

Sigh...

"Nothing comes for free, my son! You're the clan leader, so you decide. No matter which path you choose, I'll support you!" Elder Zi-Liang knew that his son would definitely consult him, so he quickly cut him off and refused to comment. After all, his son was the clan leader, so he should think and make decisions himself.

"Clan Leader, sir, I also believe in your decision!" First Elder also refused to comment. After all, the fate of a clan depended on the clan leader. Otherwise, what was the point of having a clan leader?

Yes!!!

"We also believe in Big Brother's decision!"

"Father, what has our clan been fighting for all this time? Didn't you always teach me and Yi-Chuan to remember it? But no matter which path Father chooses, this son of yours will fully support you!"

"Big Brother is right, Father. I'll stay by your side!"

"Big Brother, don't worry too much. You know that we'll always support and stand by you no matter what happens. So…, trust yourself!"

Everyone in the clan believed in Zi-Dong-Lei's decision. Because all along, they were able to overcome many crises because of Zi-Dong-Lei's decision. So, no matter whether Zi-Dong-Lei made the right or wrong choice, they would walk forward and accept it together.

Umm!

"Thank you, everyone! Actually, I already have an answer in my mind. I'm just afraid that everyone won't agree with my idea. But since everyone believes in my decision, let's follow Little Comrade to Deity Land!"

In fact, after Zi-Dong-Lei heard the story of the other worlds from Zheng-Fu, he had an idea in his mind. That was to take his Zi Clan out of that continent. Because there, they had to be careful and wary that their secret would be exposed. But if they followed Zheng-Fu and left there, they would no longer have to hide their human status. At the same time, the effects of having the Demon Race bloodline would also disappear.

"I already thought you would choose this. Then, send someone to invite Ma Clan over to discuss. Little Comrade Zheng-Fu must have other things to do. Since we have decided to follow him and become his branch clan, we should also please him."

Elder Zi-Liang already guessed that his son would choose that path. His son had dreamed of being free from the Demon Race since he was a child. However, that dream could not come true. As long as they could not overthrow the Demon Emperor who ruled the entire realm, they would definitely not be free.

Yes, sir, Father!

"Second Brother, please arrange a meeting with Ma Clan Leader and their elders for me!"

"All right, sir, Big Brother! I'll go to arrange it for you right away!"

"The others go to do your regular duties first. If there is anything more important, I'll call a meeting and announce it again!"

Yes, sir!!!

Once they had made up their minds, Zi-Dong-Lei ordered everyone to disperse and do their own duties as usual. They did not need to worry about the demon monster beast hordes anymore, since Zheng-Fu had promised to handle everything himself. So, their duty now was to talk to Ma Clan and make them accept Zheng-Fu's conditions like they did.

Back to Zheng-Fu…

Sigh!

"I didn't want to do this. But even if I didn't, one day they would still face such a cruel fate. If the Demon Royal Family found out that they weren't Demon Race and pretended to be Demon Race to rule the city… their entire clan would be eliminated. Hmm... I hope you choose wisely, City Governor Zi-Dong-Lei!"

Zheng-Fu walked while talking to himself with worry. He did not want a good clan like Zi Clan to end up miserably at the hands of Demon Race. He then offered Zi Clan to follow him back to Deity Land and pretended to threaten him so that Zi-Dong-Lei would not dare to refuse.

Respect, Young Master Zheng-Fu!

Ah!

The guards saluted him as soon as he reached the city walls.

"Is everything all right? You guys must be tired from patrolling all day. Here's some good food and liquor! I happened to pass by a bistro and bought some for you!"

Thank you, sir, Young Master!!!

"You're so kind. We really appreciate it."

"Wow! Elder Huang's bistro's fermented liquor!"

"Elder Huang's bistro's fermented liquor?! This is my favorite bistro. Bring me some!"

Hey! Hey!

Wait for me!

The guards were all very happy and grateful to Zheng-Fu for bringing them food and fermented liquor. Because they had to guard the city walls all the time, they did not have time to rest.

"I have some errands to attend to. I'd like to entrust you guys to keep watch and make sure no one goes outside the city walls. And if anything serious happens in the city, send me this signal. Do you understand?"

At first, Zheng-Fu thought of leaving the city quietly, but after thinking about it again, he decided that it would be better for him to have someone know. Plus, he would have those guards notify him of any incidents in the city. Since he could not know everything that was going on, it would be good to have someone help him keep an eye on the situation.

"Where are you going, Young Master?"

"You don't have to ask so much, just do what I tell you, understand?"

Yes, sir!

"I know, sir, Young Master!"

Although this guard was very suspicious, he did not dare to ask again. Even the City Governor respected and listened to the young man. He was just a small guard, how dare he?

"All right! I'll go first. Don't forget to send me a signal as soon as anything serious happens!"

Whoooosh!!!

Yes, sir, ...

Yes, sir, Young…

Oh, he's gone!

After he finished speaking, Zheng-Fu quickly soared out of the city walls and out of the light element energy curtain that protected Demon's Hill City. Then his figure disappeared before the guards had even finished answering him.
