Three Towers Game-Chapter 888 - 267: Farewell, Mr. Jin

The patriarch of the Wen Family, named Wen Juanhai, seems quite refined.

Generally speaking, such people are either involved in business at the Bunker or in the Desire Tower.

However, Wen Juanhai is the second person from the Wen Family to climb the Slaughter Tower. He also holds a place within the top fifty of the Slaughter Tower Celestial Ladder List.

Compared to others, the Wen Family patriarch, Wen Juanhai, knows relatively more.

Whether Wen Chaohua's plan—or what he seeks—can gain support from the Wen Family, actually depends on Wen Juanhai.

If he, as the patriarch, does not support it, the Wen Family might find itself in a different situation.

Now, besides the two brothers Hua and Shu, the entire Wen Family could be considered slaughtered, but Wen Juanhai doesn't believe his direction is wrong.

He trusts that one day, even in the Netherworld Hell, he will hear of Chaohua's deeds.

Yet even he didn't expect that before Chaohua's deeds arrived, the first thing he heard came from the fool, Xishu.

Wen Tingyun came to Wen Juanhai's side, narrating part of today's experiences.

"You're sure it's not the Chaohua Divine Teaching... but the Xishu Divine Teaching?" Wen Juanhai was still surprised.

Wen Tingyun said:

"Uncle, the prejudice in people's hearts shouldn't be so deep."

Wen Juanhai nodded:

"Among the younger generation, you're the one who dislikes Little Tree the most... If even you are speaking for Little Tree, it seems Little Tree has really shown promise."

Wen Tingyun said:

"Don't be surprised yet, there's something more worth being shocked by, even a bit horrifying."

"Little Tree, they say, might have entered the Underworld alive."

Wen Juanhai instinctively wanted to touch Wen Tingyun's forehead, wondering if the child had overheated.

But the dead don't get fevers.

Then, Wen Tingyun narrated his suspicions.

After this conversation, Wen Juanhai's complexion changed continuously.

Death makes some memories fade, Wen Juanhai doesn't remember the scene of his own death.

But he remembers certain words he said to Wen Chaohua.

It was an absurd dialogue; in hindsight, if he wasn't mad, then it was Chaohua who was mad.

Yet even such a mad conversation, when spoken by Chaohua, he still believed.

Because... the interests involved were too significant, and the future tied to it, too important.

"Father, what we need to do... is slaughter our own in the Slaughter Tower, it's part of the plan."

"The Wen Family might become sinners."

At that time, Wen Chaohua calmly looked at Wen Juanhai.

One could say, the position of the Wen Family was elevated by Wen Chaohua alone, and now, Wen Chaohua's plan seemed to drag the Wen Family into Hell.

"You have yet to glimpse the top of the Deceit Tower; let alone comparing with Principal Albert, even Xun Hui and Wenren Mirror... they're above you, kid."

"Without reaching the ultimate, without seeing the pinnacle battlefield, dare you gamble everything?"

Wen Juanhai remembers asking this and recalls Wen Chaohua saying:

"The Deceit Tower is very special, not necessarily because of the lower levels you can't obtain valuable items..."

"Besides, opportunities are truly rare, I must make a decision. Without this item, humanity is utterly hopeless."

Wen Juanhai stubbornly said:

"Is there no other way?"

Wen Chaohua remained silent for a long, long time, eventually saying:

"There is. But it will be very lengthy; but I will die. But I must hand all this over to future generations."

Wen Juanhai remained silent, Wen Chaohua spoke again:

"Father, I do not trust future generations. Before the Deceit Tower emerged, the great devouring in the Slaughter Tower could rely on the principal; but after the Deceit Tower's emergence, even the principal faces the great devouring with little chance of victory."

"Moreover, on the Three-Tower Battlefield, there are beings surpassing the teachers."

"We... can only fight, gamble, even if we fall into Hell, descend into the abyss, such an opportunity must absolutely not be let slip!"

Wen Juanhai asked:

"If successful, to what extent can you achieve?"

Wen Chaohua said:

"I can ensure humanity's future is no longer despairing, I can make the rules of the Three Towers no longer bind me... or Little Tree. No, perhaps not just the Three Towers, the more times it's used, the stronger its power becomes. This is an opportunity beyond God."

"In fact, I've already briefly experienced this."

"Next, I'll do extremely mad things in the Desire Tower to ensure related causes and effects are directly extinguished by me in the Desire Tower."

"And within the Slaughter Tower... the Wen Family needs to commit an act akin to treason."

Wen Juanhai heard treason and realized how severe this matter would be.

"Is it worth it?"

"Worth it!"

"Even if left alone? Even if parents and brothers' lives are utterly lost, you'll still proceed?"

Faced with this question, Wen Chaohua hesitated a bit, finally saying softly:

"I must go."

Wen Juanhai sighed:

"If so, then do it. If you truly achieve that, humanity will indeed have a better future, right?"

"Yes!"

"Then do it! Guilty in the present, beneficial for centuries to come, such a sin we Wen Family will take!"

In fact, Wen Juanhai is not clear about what truly makes a deity divine.

The Wen Family was exterminated quickly; after all, no matter how strong this family was, attempting to slaughter the Celestial Ladder List elites in the Slaughter Tower, was utterly futile.

But before this, Wen Juanhai did hear of one thing...

Chaohua, in the Desire Tower where killing is forbidden, committed astonishing slaughter.

"Uncle?" Wen Tingyun waved his hand, interrupting Wen Juanhai's memories.

Wen Juanhai's initial surprise gradually faded:

"Little Tree arrived alive in the Underworld?"

After this reflection, he hardly doubted this absurd fact anymore.
