As they were talking, the door to the room was suddenly knocked on.
Xu Lei was a little displeased and twisted her head, “I told you that anyone is forbidden to disturb me when I’m talking to brother Xiaofan.”
The secretary reported, “Chief Xu, it’s Mr Zhang Nanhai Zhang who has arrived.”
Xu Lei was shocked at his words.
It really made Ye Fan right.
He had really come?
“Lei’er, you go out first.Let Zhang Nanhai come in, there are some words, I’ll talk to him alone.”
Ye Fan seemed to have expected Zhang Nanhai to arrive and did not have any surprises, but instructed Xu Lei to leave.
“Hmm.”
Xu Lei nodded and mumbled, then went out.
Soon, Zhang Nanhai walked in and put the door on.
“Have a seat.”
Ye Fan whispered and poured a cup of tea for Zhang Nanhai.
But Zhang Nanhai didn’t seem to be in the mood for tea.
He looked up at Ye Fan, lowered his head again, and raised it again.
It seemed like he was hesitating, wanting to say something..
“If you have something to say, just say it.”
“After I finish, I will leave.”
Ye Fan poured himself a drink.
Zhang Nanhai heard this but was shocked, “Senior Chu, are you really leaving?Will you still come back?”
Ye Fan shook his head, “Probably, it won’t.”
“If the end comes, you won’t fight either?”
Zhang Nanhai pursued.
Ye Fan was silent for a long time.
Finally, he got up and looked through the floor-to-ceiling window at the huge world tree outside.
Ye Fan: “Nanhai, let me ask you, if something, with or without you, won’t change the outcome, will you still do it?”
Zhang Nanhai’s mood became heavier.
“So, Elder Chu still thinks that the Giant Formation has no chance of winning against the World Tree?”
This sentence, Zhang Nanhai wanted to ask just now.
However, it was too heavy.
He was even a little afraid to say it.
Although people all over the world now had high hopes for the Giant Formation, and even fervently believed that the Giant Formation would defeat the World Tree.
But Zhang Nanhai was sober!
He never lost himself in those cheers.
Much less would he be blinded by those boasting voices.
He knew that Ye Fan’s vision was much higher than the world’s.
He knew even more that Ye Fan’s insights and judgements, that carried more weight than billions of people.
“Nanhai, the answer, in fact, is already clear in your heart.”
“I won’t answer you anything.”
“I can only tell you that the current me, against the World Tree, doesn’t have the slightest chance of winning.”
“Even, not even a single move!”
“I still say the same thing, the World Tree is so powerful that it is beyond the reach of human power.”
“However, I still hope that you can hold on.”
“Perhaps, you can really seek out a path.”
“However, I hope that apart from the Giant Formation, you can leave a back way for the people of Earth, in addition to the Giant Formation.”
“You should understand what I mean.”
Ye Fan spoke in a serious and deep voice and advised.
Although he had already guessed Ye Fan’s answer, when he really heard it, Zhang Nanhai’s heart was still like a knife.
Before this battle, Zhang Nanhai was even confident.
For a while, he thought that he had found a way out for mankind.
However, the battle at Yanshan Mountain had completely shattered Zhang Nanhai.
Although the giant won in the end.
But the result, was not the crushing that Zhang Nanhai had imagined.
To know, Ye Fan couldn’t even walk a single move under the World Tree again.
However, he was able to fight the giant back and forth.
This gap, it was already obvious.
After a short period of loss, Zhang Nanhai nodded his head.
“Well, Elder Chu, I know what you mean.”
“However, there are some things that are not within my control.”
“Especially when it comes to the matter of treating the Giant Formation.”
“All these years, in order to boost confidence, those people from the Martial Alliance have spared no effort in publicising the might of the Giant Formation.”
“The belief that relying on the Giant Formation could defeat the World Tree has gone deep into people’s hearts.”
“That kind of fanaticism has gone beyond the realm of reason.”
Zhang Nanhai was never a paranoid person.
He was as pragmatic as Ye Fan.
He created the Giant Formation back then just to give humanity one more path, one more option.
However, he had never been arrogant enough to think that the Giant Formation would definitely defeat the World Tree.
However, the development in the subsequent years had undoubtedly gone beyond Zhang Nanhai’s control.
Due to the Alien Inheritance Programme, only a very small portion of the population could be teleported.When the populace learnt about it, they erupted in great protest.
The populist governments all suspended and abandoned the Human Inheritance Programme.
They demanded that the governments use all of their energy to promote the Giant Formation!
“Human nature is inherently selfish.”
“Instead of sending away a small number of people, it’s better to let everyone stay and fight against the World Tree.,
“This is what the people of today think.”
“And nowadays, any suggestion to leave a way out for the humans would be considered escapism, and not only would they lose their reputation, they would also be punished with capital punishment.”
“Elder Chu, it’s better to keep the matter of you leaving as secret as possible.”
“Otherwise, you’re afraid that you’ll become infamous.”
Zhang Nanhai sincerely advised.
Ye Fan smiled indifferently, “I never cared about these false names.”
“However, Nanhai, seriously, I admire you.”
“Regardless of the success or failure of the Giant Formation, the cause you are doing now is respectable.”
“But I also hope that you, too, will never be burdened by fame.”
“In this life, what we do is never for how others perceive us, but for ourselves, with a clear conscience.”
“That’s all there is to say, cheers Nanhai.”
“I hope you can really work hard for the cause of human inheritance.”
Ye Fan patted Zhang Nanhai’s shoulder.
Zhang Nanhai nodded heavily.
“Elder Chu, I understand.”
“Don’t worry, Nanhai will never fail your expectations and trust.”
“You can rest assured that you will go.”
“Although, I don’t know what exactly Mr Chu is going to do, I believe that Mr Chu is by no means a deserter, you definitely have more important things to do and your own path to walk.”
Zhang Nanhai’s eyes burned as he spoke firmly.
Several hours later.
Yanjing International Airport.
A plane took off.
Outside the airport, Zhang Nanhai stood for a long time.He watched the plane break into the air and go.
“Senior Chu, goodbye forever.”
Zhang Nanhai spoke in a low voice.
The oncoming wind shattered Zhang Nanhai’s words!
After the plane disappeared into the sky, Zhang Nanhai returned to Yanshan once again and devoted himself to perfecting the Giant Formation with even more enthusiasm and energy.
Ye Fan, on the other hand, led Xu Lei and descended into the Indian country!
“Ye Fan!”
At the Indian country airport, Yue Yao and the others had long been there to greet him.
Before coming, Ye Fan had already contacted Yue Yao, and they would arrive tonight.
After seeing Ye Fan, Yue Yao couldn’t hide her longing and directly drilled into Ye Fan’s arms.
“I want to hug too!”
After seeing this, Noa on the side was instantly dissatisfied.
Shouting, she even drilled into Ye Fan’s arms as well.
Not far away, Ye Fan’s uncles had wanted to come over and say a few words to Ye Fan.
But when they saw this scene, they all stood back knowingly.
Ye Fan’s cousin Ye Jian’s eyes were full of envy.
“What, you want to hug a few more too?”
Next to Ye Jian, a woman grabbed Ye Jian’s ear and asked threateningly.
After many years of not seeing each other, and now Ye Fan’s cousin, Ye Jian, had undoubtedly married a wife as well.
This woman was Ye Jian’s daughter-in-law.
“I don’t dare to dare.Besides, I can’t envy you, my brother Fan is the strongest man in the world, my Chu family’s wealth and honour today is all given by my cousin, I, Ye Jian, am just a waste, I am not qualified to enjoy the blessings of all people.”Ye Jian was quite self-aware.
“Hmph, it’s good to know.”The woman was satisfied.
After Ye Fan briefly chatted with Yue Yao and the girls, he came over to meet his uncles.
“Little Fan, your aunt and the others, are they still not coming?”Ye Fan’s eldest uncle asked.
“Well, my aunt wants to stay with her daughter.”
“Forget it, it’s all their own choice, so don’t force it.”Ye Fan’s eldest uncle said back.
Ye Fan nodded, “Hmm.In that case, let’s go into the secret realm.After we go in, it will be that the Earth will cease to exist, and you guys will be safe and sound inside.”
