Chapter 1662: Chapter 1662: Many Children, Many Blessings

It was probably the volcanic time-space, the reason why the Demon Refining Island Base was destroyed, that caused the X Legion to lose control and its command structure was lost.

Gu Fan and their ship rode the waves towards the mainland. During their retreat, they surprisingly encountered no pursuit, a smooth escape that everyone found hard to believe.

However, since they managed to escape, no one thought too much about it and hurried back to headquarters was the priority.

After the ships docked, there were already many vehicles waiting, arranged by Jie to meet them.

After the resistance army members disembarked, they split up into different vehicles. Zhuo Hang had no intention of joining these people; he was planning to part ways with Gu Fan and the others once they reached land.

So, Zhuo Hang bid farewell to Gu Fan, saying he would take Lord Xiong and leave, not caring about the situation of the big boss, leaving him to Gu Fan.

Gu Fan suggested that, since the Demon Refining Island Base was attacked and they didn’t know how the Demon King would react or what kind of counterattack he might launch, it was best for everyone to stick together to handle whatever comes.

Lu Yi interjected, "If we all stick together, we might all get wiped out at once."

Upon hearing this, Gu Fan exchanged a look with the others, who then understood and hastily covered Lu Yi’s mouth to drag her away.

Watching this, Zhuo Hang was nearly speechless, thinking to himself, at such a time, they’re still acting as if they are playing.

Finally, under the good intentions of persuasion from the others, Zhuo Hang agreed to temporarily head to the resistance army’s headquarters to find a place for Lord Xiong and then decide what to do after he wakes up.

The agreement made everyone very happy because having someone as formidable as Zhuo Hang join the resistance gave everyone hope for victory.

The vehicles returned, and on the way back, both the big boss and Lord Xiong remained unconscious. It was unknown what they experienced, but even they couldn’t recover their strength quickly.

Inside the fast-moving vehicle, Gu Fan stared blankly out of the window with a furrowed brow and a solemn expression.

Jie saw Gu Fan like this and had a bad premonition, so he asked, "Gu Fan, you’ve been gloomy since you returned, did you discover something?"

"Maybe I’m overthinking, but the latter part of this mission went too smoothly. Did we really just save the big boss and Lord Xiong like that?" Gu Fan felt something was wrong; they originally intended to rescue Leng Feng but ended up unexpectedly saving others.

Lin Yue also agreed, saying, "Since the Demon King knew you, Gu Fan, arrived in this era and even detained Leng Feng at such an important Demon Refining Island Base, was he not worried we’d rescue Leng Feng, along with the big boss and Lord Xiong?"

"That is exactly the concern." Gu Fan believed the Demon King wouldn’t do such a foolish thing, but he couldn’t guess what the Demon King was planning, just like why he wanted to kill Lin Xi, which was utterly unnecessary.

Unable to understand this issue, Gu Fan felt unease, constantly sensing that something might happen later.

Gu Xiaojin came to comfort him, "Dad, stop overthinking. Do you even need to fear anything with your power?"

Speaking of power, this battle awakened Gu Fan to the fact that his abilities in this era might not be as unbridled as before.

Watching Gu Xiaojin’s beautiful smile suddenly reminded Gu Fan of something, prompting him to ask, "Xiaojin, honestly tell me, who is the woman accompanying the Demon King now?"

"Ah, why are you suddenly asking this?" Gu Xiaojin looked troubled, seemingly unwilling to tell Gu Fan.

But with Gu Fan’s determined stance, after repeated questions, Gu Xiaojin had no choice but to speak up. However, she had a condition: once Gu Fan knew, he must not go to the Dark City to confront the Demon King recklessly.

Gu Fan agreed immediately, but his heart beat with unease.

"Actually, the woman currently beside the Demon King is Aunt Li Shi." As soon as Gu Xiaojin said this, she saw Gu Fan’s face sink, his eyes filled with anger, as if he wanted to rush to the Dark City immediately.

Gu Xiaojin quickly persuaded, "Dad, you just promised me you wouldn’t recklessly go to the Dark City. You must keep your word; you’ve never broken a promise to me."

Hearing this, Gu Fan took a deep breath, trying hard to control his emotions.

Who would believe Gu Fan wasn’t worried about Li Shi now?

The outcomes for Lin Xi and Su Hui were not good, so Gu Fan felt it was dangerous for Li Shi to stay beside the Demon King, and he was frustrated. Since the Demon King had become like that, why would Li Shi choose him? Was she forced?

According to Gu Xiaojin, Li Shi voluntarily accompanied the Demon King and even had a son with him named Gu Xiaotian, living quite well as a family of three.

"Li Shi, what exactly are you thinking? The Demon King is no longer the old me." Gu Fan still couldn’t understand why Li Shi would do that, when even Su Hui couldn’t tolerate the Demon King, why would Li Shi knowingly walk into a trap?

Wait, Gu Fan counted on his fingers: Leng Feng, Gu Xiaojin, Gu Xiaotian, adding them up, he had three children.

The ex-girlfriend Leng Le bore Leng Feng, his wife Su Hui gave birth to Gu Xiaojin, and the almost-high-school first love Li Shi had Gu Xiaotian, but the one he loved the most, Lin Xi, didn’t have children.

Gu Fan began to get confused, wondering what the Demon King was up to.

Suppose, if Lin Xi were alive, Gu Fan married her, and Lin Xi gave birth to his child, living happily as a family of three, then perhaps Leng Le, Su Hui, and Li Shi wouldn’t have had children.

Did the Demon King feel it was dull to have children with one woman, so he wanted to have children with three women, making Lin Xi the biggest obstacle, so she had to be eliminated?

"My God, is the Demon King that boring? That boring?" Gu Fan shook his head, dismissing the absurd thought.

Gu Fan believed the key point was still Gu Xiaojin, but how was Gu Xiaojin supposed to be utilized? Apart from magic and strong sensing abilities, the only thing left was being Lin Xi’s reincarnation.

At this moment, Gu Xiaojin noticed Gu Fan’s gaze and was suddenly surprised, prompting her to ask, "Dad, why are you looking at me? Is there something written on my face?"

Gu Fan quickly explained, "No, I just think my daughter is so beautiful, truly my offspring."

"Shameless, that’s mom’s credit." Gu Xiaojin said, unable to hide her proud expression.

Seeing that Gu Xiaojin had no suspicions, Gu Fan secretly wiped a sweat, feeling like this can’t be concealed for long, and one day Gu Xiaojin would know her connection with Lin Xi.
