Chapter 1688: Nonsense
When Gu Fan revealed his speculation, everyone present stared wide-eyed, utterly unable to believe what he had just said.
Welcoming the return of an ancient Super Civilization—this was what Aose and the Demon King were currently planning, and it was also what the Destiny Stone demanded of the Demon King.
Lu Yi snapped out of her shock and immediately said, "This is going way too far!"
Indeed, it was difficult to imagine. Jie followed up with a question: "Gu Fan, how confident are you in this guess?"
Gu Fan simply shook his head, looking rather uncertain. However, he couldn’t conceive of any other connection between Aose, Gu Fan, the Destiny Stone, and the ancient Super Civilization.
Gu Fan added, "I trust you all understand what the return of the ancient Super Civilization implies. With their advanced technology, we humans would have no place in the world—we’d only end up under their rule, and that would be a disaster for everyone."
Leng Feng was the first to object: "Why would the Demon King do such a thing? What benefit could it bring him? Right now, he’s the boss. If the ancient Super Civilization returns, he’d be subordinate to them."
Everyone agreed with Leng Feng’s viewpoint. The Demon King had no reason to welcome the return of the ancient Super Civilization—it didn’t align with his interests. Unless the Demon King had lost his mind?
To this, Gu Fan sighed, "Actually, the Demon King has long been subordinate to others. From the moment he came under the control of the Destiny Stone, he’s been obeying the ancient Super Civilization’s commands."
