Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

Chapter 224 224: Wish Granted

"Even after going through so much, that girl is still so naive. People like them don't live long, no matter how many times one protects them." Xu Shan commented, seeing the Marital Alliance Leader's daughter.

It had barely been a day since they met, and she had already fallen for the guy. He found this kind of love laughable, maybe because he himself didn't know what it was like to be in love.

Yan Xu was frustrated with the interruption, but he couldn't do anything about it. Moreover, he was confident in his victory and the future where he was going to devour the girl.

"Find a safe place. I'll be back soon," he told the girl before running towards the Marital Alliance Leaders.

The Enemy Ships in the distance were getting closer with each passing second.

The Ships of the Marital Alliance were not only lower in numbers, but they were also less advanced. However, with no other choice, the Martial Alliance Members landed on the flying ships.

Even if the damage they could cause was small, it was still better than nothing.

The Ships of the Martial Alliance got in formation. Over twenty ships had made the front line. Behind which, there were nine ships, all of which were boarded by one of the Martial Alliance Heads.

Amongst the nine commanding ships, the center one was used by the Martial Alliance Leader, who was accompanied by Yan Xu.

"Are you scared?" The Martial Alliance Leader asked Yan Xu. This was the first time for the young man to be a part of such a battle.

In fact, even for him this was the first time and he was feeling nervous and slightly scared. He could only imagine what Yan Xu must be feeling.

"Why should I be scared?"

To the Martial Alliance Leaders surprise, Yan Xu replied without a trace of fear. It made the old man wonder if Yan Xu was naive or simply brave.

"We have only twenty-nine ships capable of fighting. Meanwhile, the Enemy has hundreds. No matter how brave I am, I understand that this might be our last day. You don't need to hide. Sometimes, it's good to be scared. Because it makes you fight harder for survival," the old man replied, thinking that Yan Xu was pretending.

"In a battle, it's rarely about how big an army is. It's all about strength. A powerful person can wipe an army of millions with a flick of their fingers." Yan Xu bravely stated, his eyes focused on the distance.

Hearing Yan Xu's last sentence, the old man couldn't help but imagine Xu Shan. He was the only person that fit the criteria. He was a being who could end this war in an instant.

"So I am not scared. This battle will end in our victory. And I will prove my words with my actions!" Yan Xu stated. However, as if thinking of something, he glanced at the old man. "But if it ends in our victory, will I be rewarded?"

"If we can survive this war, I'll reward you with anything within my means." Although the old man didn't know why Yan Xu was so confident, but after his experience with Xu Shan, he had learned to never underestimate a person.

"But I'm curious. what do you want from me?" he further asked.

"I'll tell you after our victory," Yan Xu vaguely replied, the answer clear in his mind. There was only one thing worth his interest. And it was the old man's daughter.

He was also confident that after seeing his might, the old man wasn't going to break this promise even in his wildest dreams. One way or another, the woman was going to be his.

As the Martial Alliance Ships neared the enemy ships, they noticed that the enemy ships had stopped. They weren't moving forward.

Instead, there was one person flying before the ships, his hand behind his back like he was waiting for the Marital Alliance.

"You have crossed the line by hurting someone you shouldn't have. For that crime, you deserve death! However, our Lords have decided to give you an opportunity!"

The masked man spoke, his voice loud enough to reach everyone in the ships and even the distant town.

The Martial Alliance Members looked at each other. None of them believed the invaders.

They had seen their fair share of deception and false promises from outsiders before. However, the masked man continued, unmoved by their skepticism.

"Hand over everyone who was responsible from planning to execution of the plan that hurt our Young Lord! Their death will result in your lives, and you shall be granted an opportunity to surrender! I promise that those innocent people will be treated with respect. They'll be granted freedom, only having to work for us."

"However, if you don't listen to our demands, all of you will be killed right here and right now! Don't waste our goodwill! You only have ten minutes to decide!" The masked man stated, before turning around to return to his ship.

"We don't need to think about it! We will choose the third option, and that is to kill you all!"

Before the Martial Alliance Leaders could even discuss the offer, a sharp voice came. All Martial Alliance Leaders looked at Yan Xu, who had spoken. However, none of them was angry. At this point, all of them had already prepared to fight till death, instead of becoming slaves of invaders.

"That's right! Even if we are to die, we will make sure that you don't return unharmed either! We'll make sure you can never forget about us!" Another Martial Alliance Member spoke, his voice filled with rage.

The Masked Man turned around, his eyes squinting. "Instead of life, you people chose death. How foolish... However, your wish will be granted!"

He raised his hand, summoning a powerful gust of wind that soon transformed into a sharp sword in his hand.

At that moment, hundreds of masked men appeared next to him, all as strong as the Martial Alliance Leader.
