Then, Let Them Offer Their Loyalty! Chapter 1713 - 703: The Eerie Letter from the Heavenly God Battlefield!

Li Feng, sensing her mother's peculiar gaze, couldn't help but furrow her brow slightly.

She then turned her attention to her mother and inquired, "Mom, what is it? Is something wrong?"

Hearing Li Feng's question, Zhi Yan snapped back to the present, realizing she had lost her composure. She quickly composed herself, shook her head, and replied, "It's nothing, dear. I was just lost in thought about something else."

Li Feng, by comparison, was considerably more naive and idealistic.

This was plainly evident in her choices; she consistently put the interests of the Human Camp first, even to the point of disagreeing with her own mother.

Qiu Tu, the Supreme Councilman of the Human Alliance and the Human Camp's most powerful figure, had now allied with Zhao Ji to unseat the Four Divine Kings from their dominion over the "Boundless Heart Sea." In Li Feng's eyes, Qiu Tu was practically a deity.

Consequently, her sole focus was on bolstering the Human Camp's might through Qiu Tu's directives.

This dedication meant that even though Li Feng noticed her mother's unusual behavior, she did not dwell on it.

Driven by her mission, she proceeded to enthusiastically explain Qiu Tu's grand strategy and her own insights to her mother.

"Mom, I truly believe this is a golden opportunity for us humans!"

"If we can successfully unify the Three Divine Countries, then our human race will possess a truly solidified standing throughout the entire 'Boundless Heart Sea.'"

"Considering the immense lifespan of a Heavenly God, Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji can safeguard humanity for at least a thousand years."

"During this extensive period, our kind is bound to produce several, if not a dozen, Eighth Rank Peak Deities."

"With a bit of fortune, and perhaps the emergence of one or two more Heavenly Gods, humanity's future will be exceptionally bright."

Zhi Yan Heavenly King rubbed her temples, a slight headache forming as Li Feng repeatedly uttered the phrase "us humans." She found herself at a loss for words.

Her mind drifted back to that fateful night on the rooftop when Qiu Tu had inquired, "Heavenly King, I don't recall General Li Feng ever mentioning her father."

Her response back then had been, "Li Feng's father passed away a long time ago." (Chapter 665)

The truth was, she had lied then, but she never anticipated that this falsehood would tragically become reality……

Indeed, Li Feng's father was none other than the very "West God King" whose recent demise she was now so eager to celebrate, who had just tragically fallen……

Recalling this, Zhi Yan couldn't help but reminisce about her ill-fated connection with the West God King.

In truth, their past entanglement was a consequence of decisions made by both individuals.

At the time, Tian Qi, leveraging his status as the West God King's younger brother, was expanding his influence at an alarming rate within the "Western Kingdom," without any apparent checks.

And for reasons unknown, the West God King deliberately let Tian Qi grow unchecked.

This unchecked expansion led to the "Fog Hidden Association," founded by Tian Qi, evolving into a colossal power within the "Western Kingdom," having absorbed numerous worlds, gaining substantial territory and a wealth of talented individuals.

It was only then that the West God King appeared to fully grasp the severity of the situation and realized that things could not persist in this manner.

However, by that juncture, the "Fog Hidden Association" was on the cusp of absorbing the human world and had even backed a proxy faction within the Human Camp—specifically, the 2nd Sanctuary.

Judging by the typical modus operandi of the "Fog Hidden Association," it seemed inevitable that the human world would soon fall under their control once again.

Thus…… the West God King, under the guise of a **disguised visit**, arrived at the 2nd Sanctuary, intending to thwart Tian Qi's ambitious plans.

Coincidentally, the 2nd Sanctuary was also attempting to expand its influence by utilizing the backing of the "Fog Hidden Association," all while secretly plotting to break free from its control.

Given the pervasive influence of the "Fog Hidden Association" throughout the "Western Kingdom," the only viable path to liberation was to seek aid from the West God King.

Zhi Yan, as a high-ranking official within the 2nd Sanctuary, bore the primary responsibility for navigating this critical alliance.

Therefore…… it was only natural that the two found themselves in contact.

With their objectives aligning so perfectly, they quickly developed a strong rapport, and their interactions and mutual connections began to grow steadily.

In this era of devastation, individuals are inherently driven by heightened emotions, and when the survival of an entire species is at stake, beauty often becomes the most readily available resource.

Furthermore, the West God King genuinely sought an individual within the human populace whom he could implicitly trust. As a result, Zhi Yan Heavenly King and the West God King ultimately found themselves intimately involved.

Typically, the higher the rank of a cataclysmic being, the more challenging it becomes to conceive new life, a principle dictated by the **"World Rules."**

Consequently, Zhi Yan had always assumed their encounter was merely a fleeting dalliance.

It wasn't until upwards of a month later, when she began to feel unwell, that the stark realization of her pregnancy dawned upon her.

Though the emotional bond between her and the West God King was tenuous at best, the child was an innocent life. After considerable deliberation and internal conflict, Zhi Yan ultimately resolved to carry the child to term and raise it on her own.Upon hearing of it, the West God King did not demand the child. Instead, a potent "Boundless Divine Crystal," brimming with his essence, was dispatched. It was stated that this "Boundless Divine Crystal" harbored a formidable "Pseudo-Heavenly God Skill," capable of establishing a solid base for the child's future cultivation. —The extraordinary and world-shattering technique wielded by Li Feng, the "Life Iron Army," originated from this very crystal. She possessed the ability to forge her own "Iron Maiden Army." This connection would not only allow for the sharing of life essence with them but also the amalgamation of their collective strengths, propelling her power to extraordinary new heights. Throughout the years, it was this very link to Li Feng that enabled the 2nd Sanctuary to deftly maneuver between the West God King and the "Fog Hidden Association," all the while providing crucial support to humanity. In a bid to secure humanity's enduring presence, Zhi Yan Heavenly King had even dispatched Li Feng to the Edge Region, tasking her with stabilizing the volatile situation there. —While the Evil Gods might set their sights on other human luminaries, they would absolutely refrain from daring to lay a hand on Li Feng.
