Chapter 1095 The Missing Years (4)



Lin Fan casually walked over to the seat that had been left open for him before looking at the general who was sitting in front of him.

When the general felt his gaze fall onto him, he couldn't help feeling strange.

He didn't know what Lin Fan wanted from him, but he could tell that Lin Fan wanted something.

Since Lin Fan was the crown prince and the successor of the Lin Astral Emperor, naturally this general didn't want to offend him.

So he could only ask with a smile, "Your highness, is something wrong?"

Lin Fan just calmly said, "Move down and clear a seat."

When the general heard this, the smile on his lips twitched before he asked, "Your highness, what do you mean by this?"

Lin Fan released his pressure on this general before saying, "I mean what I said. Move down and clear a seat."

The general's expression completely changed after this.

He had a shocked look of disbelief on his face, almost as if he couldn't understand what Lin Fan was saying.

ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm But he didn't dare say anything too harshly since he knew what position Lin Fan had, so he could only turn to the Lin Astral Emperor for help.

It was just too bad that the Lin Astral Emperor wasn't even looking his way.

It made it very clear whose side the Lin Astral Emperor was on.

Seeing this, the general had no choice but to go along with Lin Fan's demand.

Even though he was enraged that a veteran like him was being treated like this, he didn't dare show it.

After all, someone that was able to sit right beside the Lin Astral Emperor definitely didn't have a low status. He was someone who was high up on the military rankings and didn't have a low cultivation, being in the Peak Sun Realm.

But compared to the status of crown prince and the cultivation of the Ruler Realm, he just couldn't compare.

So he could only swallow this anger and move to the side.

Once he moved down, Lin Fan gestured for Angela to sit down which she did with a smile on her face. Lin Fan then looked at the rest of the ministers and generals who were at this table.

When he did, all of them turned away to avoid his gaze.

It was as if…they were afraid of him.

Seeing this, Lin Fan knew that he had accomplished his goal. At the same time, the Lin Astral Emperor gave a satisfied nod since he was happy to see Lin Fan taking initiative like this.

Lin Fan would eventually become an important person in the Lin Astral Empire and to establish this position, he had to establish his prestige. The best way for him to do that was to find a scapegoat and punish them in front of the rest, placing himself in a much higher position.

So that was why Lin Fan had chosen to single out this veteran general.

But of course, there was also a personal reason why Lin Fan picked on this general.

When he had walked in with Angela, he had been carefully looking at the expressions that everyone had.

This general…was one of the ones who had a bad expression when they saw Angela come in.

It was clear that there wasn't a good relationship between this general and Angela, so since that was the case, he wouldn't hold back in taking a bit of revenge for her. Since he was in the position to do so, he didn't mind abusing this position a little.

That was also why Angela had a smile on her face when she sat down.

After Lin Fan and Angela had settled, the Lin Astral Emperor restarted the meeting.

Lin Fan didn't speak at first and just listened since information about the war was one that he was lacking. Angela had given him a summary of the war, but it was a very basic summary that only told him the general situation.

It wasn't like this meeting where he was able to hear all of the details of the war.

After hearing these reports, he realized that…the situation was much worse than he thought.

While they had only lost 20% of their territory, most of the troops were injured fighting the Beast Race. There were now less than half of their troops that were capable of fighting still and that was barely enough to keep the forces of the Beast Race back.

If this continued like this, it would only be a matter of time before the forces of the Lin Astral Empire fell and the Beast Race swept the land.

So it could be said that they were in a dire situation.

There were many different suggestions from the ministers and generals, but all of them were only about stalling.

Finally, there was one minister that couldn't take it anymore and said, "Shouldn't we ask for the help of the ancestors?"

When he said this, everyone turned to look at the Lin Astral Emperor.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

They tried their best not to show any emotions, but it was clear by the looks in their eyes that they were hoping for some kind of response from him.

Or rather, they were hoping for a certain response from him.

The ancestors that this minister was referring to were the ancestors of the Lin Astral Family. They were the emperors of past generations that had passed the throne on to focus on cultivating and safeguarding the family.

Of course, that didn't mean that every single generation would become an ancestor and there were of course accidents.

But these ancestors were the strongest experts of the Lin Astral Empire.

They were hoping that these ancestors would come out and help them solve this Beast Race crisis.

If they were willing to make a move, it was certain that they would be able to push back the Beast Race. After all, most of these ancestors had been peak experts in their generations and they had only become stronger with time.

They were the strongest Ruler Realm Experts that the Lin Astral Empire had.

But this was something of a line.

If this line was crossed, it would be deemed that the Lin Astral Empire was on the verge of collapse.

After all, these ancestors would only interfere in destruction level crises of the Lin Astral Empire.

So to call them now…was admitting that the Lin Astral Empire was close to being doomed.

The Lin Astral Emperor didn't even bother playing with this idea as he immediately said, "No, that is impossible. Before the empire is on the verge of destruction, the ancestors cannot be disturbed."

Everyone tried their best to not show any emotions, but it was clear that many of them were disappointed. There were many of them that had wanted the Lin Astral Family to step up, but now that they were refusing…

However, it wasn't as if they could force the Lin Astral Family to make a move, so they could only start discussing alternatives.

During this time, Lin Fan had been silent the whole time.

He had been silently listening and thinking, but the way that he looked almost seemed like this wasn't related to him.

Finally, Lin Fan decided to speak, "Great grandfather, I want to enter the battlefield as well."

When this was said, everyone suddenly turned to look at him with surprised looks.

The Lin Astral Emperor knitted his brows immediately before saying, "Fan'er, there's no need for you to go to the battlefield personally. You're needed here more than you are out on the battlefield right now."

While the other ministers and generals didn't agree to this since a Ruler Realm Expert would without a doubt change the tide of the battle, they didn't dare go against the Lin Astral Emperor.

So they all silently waited to see how this would turn out.

Lin Fan shook his head and picked up a report that he placed in front of himself before saying, "I want to be deployed here."

The Lin Astral Emperor looked down at the report that was on the table before revealing a look of understanding.

That was because this was a report about the battle around the Mu Stellar Kingdom.

He knew Lin Fan's past with the Mu Stellar Kingdom and the Galactic Humanity Alliance that was around that area. So he knew what Lin Fan was planning by going to back up the Mu Stellar Kingdom.

With a sigh, the Lin Astral Emperor gave a nod and said, "Alright, you can go." Then after a pause, he said, "But be careful."

The generals and ministers also looked at the report on the table.

It didn't take much for them to figure out that this was where Lin Fan was being deployed.

However, some of the generals couldn't help looking like they wanted to say something more.

After all, this area wasn't that important of an area to them.

If Lin Fan was to be deployed, as a valuable Ruler Realm Expert, they would want him in some of the more important battlefields.

Only there would he be able to help them turn the tide of the battle.

But it really was hard for them to speak when they really didn't have the right to deploy Ruler Realm Experts in the first place.

The generals were working up the courage to say something when Angela spoke first.

"I want to resign from my position as a general."

When she said this, the entire room was filled with shock.
