Chapter 1579: Chapter 614: Destiny Platform

Seeing the smile in Wang Yong’s eyes at the moment of his death, it seemed as though he had finally found relief. This puzzled Yan Fei. Wang Yong had just become a God-Level Expert and was only beginning to feel the immense power he now possessed. Why would he feel a sense of liberation?

Yan Fei silently withdrew the steel wire in his hand. The wire had melted under the lightning controlled by the Lightning Master, yet Yan Fei still saw traces where the wire had been severed by the flying knife of the Old Man of the Mountains. Turning back to look, he noticed the Lightning Master gazing silently at the magma below, while Huo Shan, the Old Man of the Mountains, appeared to have reverted to a severely injured state, as though the earlier flying knife had exhausted all the energy within her.

Yan Fei understood the intentions of these people very clearly. They had never hoped Wang Yong would have a change of conscience or allow their party to pass just because Yan Fei had saved him. If the opportunity arose, they would strike, killing Wang Yong who stood in their way. However, none of them possessed the ability to attack from a distance—only the Lightning Master had reacted quickly, and only she truly obstructed Yan Fei from saving Wang Yong.

In truth, Huo Shan, the Old Man of the Mountains, was the first to act. Her flying knife severed the steel wire with which Yan Fei tried to save Wang Yong. But Yan Fei knew this wasn’t her original intention. Her initial target had been the belt Wang Yong used to save Yan Fei. It was only because Yan Fei swapped positions with Wang Yong at the last moment and used the steel wire to wrap around Wang Yong that the belt and wire overlapped in space, causing the Old Man of the Mountains’ attack to inadvertently hit Yan Fei’s steel wire and lead to Wang Yong’s fall into the magma. If Yan Fei had not swapped places with Wang Yong, then Yan Fei would have fallen into the magma instead.

If the Lightning Master’s sole intent was to eliminate Wang Yong, the Old Man of the Mountains’ aim was undoubtedly to kill Yan Fei...

To the onlookers, it was apparent that both the Lightning Master and the Old Man of the Mountains had disrupted some aspect of Yan Fei’s plan. Thus, upon seeing Yan Fei’s hostile expression towards these two individuals, Tripiṭaka quickly stepped forward and said, "Yan Fei, it was thanks to you this time. Together, we’ve managed to kill Wang Yong. Now we can move forward."

Tripiṭaka had just witnessed Yan Fei’s unique ability to teleport, something no one in their group could counter. He hurriedly intervened to smooth things over, fearing that their Elite team of God-Level Experts might descend into infighting before even reaching the Destiny Organization. His words were strategically crafted, framing the confrontation between Yan Fei, the Old Man of the Mountains, and the Lightning Master as a cooperative endeavor—a reminder to Yan Fei that they were on the same team and should not fight amongst themselves before completing their primary task.

Yan Fei let out a cold snort and forcibly suppressed the burning anger within him. His main objective here was to destroy the Destiny Organization, and before that goal was achieved, he didn’t want unnecessary complications. Still, once the Destiny Organization was eliminated, he would immediately turn on the Lightning Master and the Old Man of the Mountains to kill them both for thwarting his plan—especially the Old Man of the Mountains. Yan Fei swore he would kill her.

When Yan Fei refrained from exploding on the spot, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief. There were at least three individuals who would stand with Yan Fei in a conflict. If infighting or departures occurred here, it would greatly weaken the team’s combat power and potentially result in the total failure of their operation. Their shared interest was in defeating the Destiny Organization, and none of them supported Yan Fei’s emotional approach. They knew that if Yan Fei threatened their common goal, they too would oppose him. Yan Fei was acutely aware of this, which was why he chose not to erupt at this moment.

Wang Yong died in a manner no one could have predicted, yet his overwhelming strength left an indelible impression on everyone. Not long ago, Wang Yong had been a feeble mortal, but upon his breakthrough to God-Level Expert, he immediately became a significant threat. If not for Yan Fei’s timely activation of the Power of Space, which disrupted Wang Yong’s ability to absorb the spatial energy and displaced him, no one could have forced Wang Yong off the suspension bridge.

This brought everyone’s thoughts back to the High Priest from the first suspension bridge. That High Priest had initially been weak, and his toxic abilities were hardly impactful. But after joining the Destiny Organization, his strength improved tremendously, and his toxic powers were displayed to their full extent, almost preventing them from crossing the bridge.

With these two examples vividly in mind, the team began to view the Destiny Organization as even more unfathomable. An organization capable of transforming unremarkable individuals into nearly invincible beings—how formidable must the organization itself be? And were there more experts stationed like gatekeepers on the path ahead? If they continued to encounter such powerful guardians, it would be better to return home. They had already been pushed to their limits defeating just two gatekeepers; if even stronger adversaries awaited, they stood no chance...

And this was without even taking into account the combat power of the Destiny Organization itself. If what Wang Yong had said before was true—that Destiny was truly invincible—then their current Operation Destiny was undoubtedly courting disaster. However, having gone to great lengths to locate the Destiny Organization’s Lair, and having already defeated two of its gatekeepers, they had clearly become enemies of Destiny. Retreating now was out of the question. So, after exchanging glances, the group decided to forge ahead despite the risks.
