Chapter 511 - Awakening Li Feihong (1)
"Can I refuse?"
Li Feihong did not want to gamble against his instinct.
"We need him dead," Zhuge Liang insisted.
"If I kill him, Guan Yu will know since he's with Lilim, and he will e after me and Zhang Tong."
Li Feihong took a stand and declined the suggestion. He glared into Zhuge Liang's eyes to hint that he was serious.
The hidden dragon shook his head in disappointment.
"Why are you getting scared of Guan Yu for? Are you too weak to contend with him?"
"Duh! That's obvious! He's at least at 8-wing cultivation but I only have 7! He's a veteran, but I'm merely a scholar with barely martial arts training. How can I beat him when my foundation and cultivation strength are weaker than him!?"
"Then, please cultivate and get that wing right now. We need you as a pillar of his majesty's forces as soon as possible. Unless you can match your strength with Guan Yu, his majesty's kingdom will be in peril."
"Oi! You think cultivation is as easy as talking? All you have to do is to cultivate your mind to awaken souls, but you forgot that we have to convert that soul energy and lifespan to reinforce our physical body to maintain that power. My body and souls are not ready for the 8th wing!"
"What will happen if you breakthrough right now, then?"
"I'll die."
"That's an exaggeration. From my investigation, Guan Yu forcefully broke through when he was fighting against his majesty, but he was still alive afterward. All he suffered was soul injuries."
"Soul injury can be fatal. Zhang Tong got injured after the Anti-Khan Coalition disbanded, and it took him years to recover from that."
"But he is still alive, no?"
"…"
"How about this? We'll postpone our initial plan for now and focus on helping you get your 8th wing. We'll use our power to keep healing and reinforcing your body during the process."
Li Feihong hesitated if this was a good idea.
Seeing that Li Feihong was depressed, Zhou Cang patted the former's back and showed off the four white wings. He, too, was a hard worker, and he had been cultivating hard for the legion.
Zhou Cang didn't know that the soft touch (that he believed to be) made Li Feihong spat a mouthful of blood.
"I have Sacrifice, Charity, Loyalty, and Valor. I can use Charity to heal you and Sacrifice to transfer a portion of your injuries to me. Let's do it, Grand General!"
Not only Zhou Cang had useful souls and abilities, but Xu Shu also summoned his only virtuous soul, Sacrifice, which he had acquired after the mass awakening.
"I also have Sacrifice. I can share a bit of your pain, general."
Lu Lingqi, the only observer, clicked her tongue in disgust as she still did not like Li Feihong. Moreover, she had awakened a soul of sin, a demonic soul, Wrath.
She was not suited for any support mission. Instead, she excelled in battles and curses.
'Bla, bla, bla. Idiots. Cultivation is like laying the groundwork for tall buildings. You can't rush it, or you'll lose those potential souls forever if you fail! I doubt this hypocrite has that many unawakened virtues to grow more wings.'
Unbeknownst to Lu Lingqi's thoughts, Li Feihong believed in Xu Shu and Zhou Cang and prepared to breakthrough.
"Okay, I trust you. Please help me if something goes wrong."
Xu Shu and Zhou Cang nodded. They summoned their souls and were ready to help Li Feihong at any moment.
"Oh, you remind me of a proverb. I think there's a saying in the other world, "Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong
