World's Best Martial Artist

Chapter 1031: Chapter 1027-ready

Chapter 1031: Chapter 1027-ready


"Since you"re here, don"t leave!"


Fang Ping"s speed was also extremely fast. No matter which side Yun Sheng tried to break out from, he was quickly pushed back by Fang ping.


Fang ping chuckled."Don"t run. Take this. It"s my first time using this move. Give me a chance, will you? If you don"t die, I won"t kill you. You"re a Paragon, after all, so you won"t die so easily!"


Yunsheng cursed in his heart!


Take your blade?


This was not an ordinary slash. If Fang ping had used his full strength, he would have dared to take it.


However, the Changdao that Fang ping was condensing right now was not a problem of a few hundred thousand Cal!


Fang Ping"s own explosive power had already surpa.s.sed that of a weak apex Paragon.


At this moment, each Dragon was a full-powered strike from a weak Peak Master!


How many lines have formed?


Nine lines!


If Fang ping could complete control, it would mean that 9 weak Paragon Masters had launched an attack on him at the same time.


Of course, there were also many problems.


Fang ping felt a little out of control. His strength control had also slipped drastically, but even so, Yun Sheng did not dare to take it.


He wasn"t a peak Paragon!


If he was a top-notch Paragon, he would have defeated Fang ping right away. He would not have given him the time to condense the long Dragons.


However, he was only on par with Fang ping. Now that Fang Ping"s combat strength was at its peak, he could not stop him at all.


Seeing the enemy preparing to kill him with a big move, this feeling simply made him collapse!


"Fang ping!"


Once again, Yun Sheng was pushed back by Fang ping. At this moment, his eyes were red as he roared,"The martial King once said that the inter-world realm was beneficial to mankind! They even said that there was a way to survive in the world ... Today, I"m going to use this opportunity!


That day, all the experts of the Three Realms heard it. If you humans break your promise, who will dare to trust you from now on?"


Fang ping seemed to be deep in thought. He did not delay in condensing the long Dragon.


"You want to live?"


Yun Sheng"s face turned green, but he still said,""Stop the battle now!"


"You want to live?"


Fang ping asked again.


Yun Sheng"s face turned even uglier and he said,""You want to live!"


The moment these words came out, he also lost all his face.


However, in order to survive, he couldn"t care about this.


Fang ping laughed,"it"s not hard to live!" However, I remember that the martial King said that he would spare your sect master, not you. Besides ... Didn"t you kill the Yang family"s one yourself?"


Fang ping sneered. Although he was not on good terms with the Yang family, the Yang family was still the Yang family. The Yang family patriarch was still the Yang family patriarch.


In the past, when he said that the Yang family patriarch had betrayed the sect, Fang ping felt that it was hard to say whether it was right or wrong for the people from Xuling Grotto-heaven to kill the Yang family patriarch.


But now ... They were standing in a different position and from a different angle, so they naturally felt that the Xuling heavenly abode was wrong.


"You killed that person from the Yang family, causing the other members of the Yang family to vent their anger on me ... Speaking of which, the biggest ma.s.sacre I caused in the human world was also your fault! If the Yang family"s ancestor doesn"t die, there won"t be any future events. Tell me, aren"t you all despicable?"


Fang Ping"s face was full of smiles, but perfected Lord Yun Sheng said angrily,"He betrayed the sect and wanted to kill the sect master and seize the sect master"s origin. He is the sect master"s disciple. What"s wrong with the sect master killing him?"


He could admit to everything else, but to say that he had killed the wrong Yang family ancestor, Yun Sheng felt that he could not admit it.


A martial artist who betrayed his master should be killed.


Fang ping laughed,"then have you asked me?"


"……"


Perfected Lord Yunsheng was furious.


Who were you at that time? was there a need to ask you?


Besides, don"t you know who killed the other Yang family members?


"Fang ping, what do you want!"


"Don"t forget that when you came to Xuling Grotto-heaven, li Hansong and the others barged into the celestial Palace. Sect master pitied them and didn"t kill them ..."


As for what happened after that, it"s a battle of orthodoxy and power. Now, the sect leader has also entered the heavenly tomb with the martial King and the others. The sect leader has even been devoured by the martial King. Do you still want to implicate everyone in my Xuling Grotto-heaven?"


As he spoke, he looked at the long blade that was getting stronger and stronger, and he could not suppress his panic.


Fang ping seemed to be thinking about something. Very quickly, he said,"Then I"ll give you one more chance. You can live, but ... You have to surrender! I won"t allow a Paragon who views me with enmity to be active in the Three Realms!


Do you have the confidence to block this blade?


If you surrender, you might not die, but if you don"t surrender, you will definitely die!


At this point, do you still not understand?


You ... Are the blood sacrifice that the other experts of the Three Realms have given me. Do you believe me when I say that even if you manage to escape this saber of mine, you"ll still die today?!"


Yun Sheng"s face turned pale!


Up until now, none of the other experts had made a move. He had long understood.


However, he still did not understand. Why?


Fang ping quickly laughed,"because I told them a big secret!" We all need this secret, we all need me to live. Of course, you can also share this secret, and for you to surrender, I"ll just say it directly ... I need you to be a Pathfinder!"


Fang Ping"s eyes were bright as he said,"I"m going to the evil sect"s headquarters, but it"s very dangerous, so I need powerhouses to Scout the way!" "If you surrender, then you still have a chance of survival. After you successfully Scout the way, you might be able to escape ...


Yunsheng, do you choose to die now, or do you choose to take a gamble?"


"Scout?"


Perfected Lord Yunsheng"s expression was strange as he said gloomily,""Fang ping, do you think I"ll believe you?"


"It"s up to you to believe or not!"


Fang ping laughed,"my saber will land after three clangs!" If you don"t die ... It doesn"t matter, I still have the means to cut off the great Dao. If you"re confident that you can escape, I"ll consider you powerful!"


Fang ping had almost never lost when he fought with martial artists of the same strength.


Unlimited Recovery was the greatest advantage.


At this moment, his long blade had already taken shape and shook the entire Origin s.p.a.ce.


Yunsheng"s eyes were complicated.


To block a blade?


Or ... Surrender?


Surrendering meant being at the mercy of others!


If he blocked the saber, if he blocked it, or if he took advantage of the moment when Fang ping made his move, there was still a tiny bit of hope of escaping.


It was a choice that made people struggle!


The long saber slowly descended.


Perfected Lord Yunsheng was still making his final struggle, but Fang ping was getting impatient. His eyes moved, and perfected Lord Yunsheng let out a m.u.f.fled grunt, the origin Qi in his body fluctuating.


However, he had also been on guard against Fang ping. Fang Ping"s sudden attack to cut off his great Dao was a little abrupt, but he had still managed to defend himself.


However, this was the first time. If Fang ping continued like this and attacked from both the inside and outside, he would definitely not be able to hold on.


Perfected Lord Yunsheng struggled in his heart again, while Fang ping ... Began to count!


Upon hearing this, perfected Lord Yunsheng"s eyes flashed with resentment and he said,""I can help you find a path, but will you really let me go?"


Fang ping laughed,"good luck!" "You"ve entered the evil sect"s headquarters. If you didn"t die, and I didn"t have the time to kill you, of course you would have a chance to escape! But if you die, or if I have the chance to kill you, then I will definitely kill you! It"s that simple, do you want to bet or not?"


If Fang ping really said that he would let him go, he would not believe it.


However, when he heard that, he actually believed it.


Fang ping continued,"don"t even think about joining the evil sect. It"s useless!" "I discovered the evil sect"s greatest secret and killed my way into their headquarters. If the evil sect dares to accept you now, then they"re idiots! So, whether you live or die, it all depends on your strength and luck!"


Perfected Lord Yunsheng took a deep breath and said slowly,""Alright, this old master agrees! "Fang ping ... You can let me leave now ..."


Fang ping looked at him as if he was an idiot and laughed."You ... Are you dreaming? Surrender, I"ll use my Origin Energy to confine you. When we reach the evil sect headquarters, you"ll go and Scout the way. Once you enter the evil sect headquarters, you"ll be able to escape from my Origin Energy confinement!


Do you think I"m an idiot?


Should I just let you go?


Are you an idiot or am I?"


"Qi of origin imprisonment ..."


Perfected Lord Yunsheng"s expression changed slightly.


Fang ping added,"that"s right!" I"m going to set up an origin blade like this in your origin world. If you run, I"ll cut off your origin! Don"t think that I don"t know how to do this!"


In the past, it had been very difficult for Fang ping to imprison martial artists.


But now, with the source world, he also had a method.


He used his Qi of origin to lay down a long blade that was as realistic as reality in the other party"s source world. It could explode in an instant and slash down. Even if Yunsheng did not die, he would be seriously injured and the source world would be destroyed.


True Lord Yun Sheng was still hesitating. He was putting his life in Fang Ping"s hands.


Fang Ping"s gaze instantly turned cold and fierce. The long saber descended rapidly. He could feel the sharp Qi, and he could feel Fang Ping"s deadly lock on him ...


Perfected Lord Yun Sheng"s eyes flashed with a stern look and he quickly said,""Good! This old man agrees!"


"Fang ping, don"t you let me escape!"


Or else ...


There was a flash of resentment in the depths of perfected Lord Yunsheng"s eyes.


Scout?


Scout the evil sect?


He might not die!


Even if the evil sect would make use of him, when that time came, his chances of survival would be greater than now.


"Now this is more like it!"


Fang ping chuckled and said quickly,"open your source world and let me in. You can try to defeat me in the source world!"


Perfected Lord Yunsheng remained silent.


Very soon, it took the initiative to pull Fang ping into its own source world.


……


In the source world.


When he saw Fang Ping"s source world, perfected Lord Yunsheng"s expression changed again and again.


What was that?


A city?


Fang Ping"s source world actually had a city!


He had actually integrated a city into the source world. No wonder he was so powerful.


Soon, he saw something special.


He saw a Dao!


It was a very wide path!


Back then, when Fang ping had left, no one else had seen anything. However, today, he had seen it.


It was a path that was a few thousand meters wide. As for its length ... Unless the great Dao of origins stood on the path, it would not be able to see anything.


However, just the width was enough to shock him!


There was actually someone with such a wide road!


The width of the path represented potential. Many people knew this, and almost everyone understood it.


However, everyone could not even walk the long distance. Who had more energy and Origin Energy to expand the width?


Unless they were Warriors who had reached the end of their path, they would try to widen their path for the future.


No one else would do it.


Perfected Lord Yunsheng"s expression changed again and again, and in the next moment, he was shocked.


Fang ping was condensing a saber!


It was the same blade as the outside world!


A huge amount of Origin Energy was consumed by him. 100 clouds, 500 clouds, 1000 clouds ...


When he sensed this, perfected Lord Yun Sheng instantly extinguished any thoughts of defeating Fang ping here.


This guy was too terrifying!


The Qi of origin could be resuscitated indefinitely. It was so terrifying that he felt despair.


Fang ping ignored him and continued to condense his Changdao.


If one wasn"t enough, then two, three ...


A total of nine long blades appeared and formed a large formation, locking Yunsheng"s floating island of origin.


Fang ping checked it and smiled."If this saber comes down, it"ll destroy your source world. Do you think it"ll explode?"


Perfected Lord Yunsheng"s face was cold and he didn"t speak.


"The source world exploded. Did the big Dao organization explode? Can people explode?"


A bright smile appeared on Fang Ping"s face. It was so bright that perfected Lord Yunsheng had a vague sense of foreboding.


Was it inappropriate for him to surrender?


Fang ping was not going to kill him now, was he?


However, if he really wanted to kill him, the probability of him dying from that slash just now was not small. Why would he go through the trouble of consuming so much origin Qi?


Fang ping touched his chin and muttered,"it should explode, right?" The power of the explosion is not small!"


Perfected Lord Yunsheng was even more uneasy!


"If one won"t do, what about four?" Fang ping laughed.


"……"


"Yunsheng, have you ever seen fireworks?"


Fang ping suddenly changed the topic. Perfected Lord Yunsheng"s eyes flickered, and he said darkly,"I haven "t!"


"It"s the kind that"s brilliant and dazzling! With a bang, it exploded, and a flower bloomed in the air!"


Fang ping laughed."Don"t move. Otherwise ... You"ll turn into fireworks!"


As he spoke, Fang Ping"s figure flashed and appeared outside the source world.


At this moment, the long saber was still there and had not dispersed.


Perfected Lord Yunsheng opened his eyes as well. He looked at Fang ping, his gaze becoming increasingly dark and uncertain.


What did Fang ping mean just now?


Just as he was deep in thought, Fang ping floated in the air and grabbed him, making him a little annoyed.


"Don"t move, I still have things to do. I"ll go out later!"


Fang ping closed his eyes again.


Perfected Lord Yunsheng frowned when he saw him closing his eyes.


What was this guy doing?


Had he entered his own source world?


If I ... Launch a sneak attack now ...


However, at the sight of the long saber pointing at him in the air and the nine long sabers made of Qi of origin in the source world, perfected Lord Yunsheng gave up on the idea of a sneak attack.


At this moment, however, Fang ping was not entering his own source world!


He had just been enlightened. He still had three human bombs!


He was going to lay down these origin blades in the three elders "source worlds. Then, he would not cut them apart, but destroy their source worlds!


The four Paragon"s source worlds were destroyed at the same time. Fang ping felt that such power could shock people.


However, controlling these origin blades also had something to do with mental power.


Fang ping realized that mentality seemed to be really important. He still had to continue improving it.


It was too difficult for him to increase his spiritual power now.


When one"s mentality reached Mach 10000, the increase would be extremely slow.


His origin Dao had not even reached a thousand meters, and he did not move much.


Even at the 1000-meter mark, the other peaks would only increase his mentality by about 1000hz after walking 1000 meters.


"Spiritual power...Has something to do with the control of one"s power. The stronger one"s spiritual power is, the easier it is to control one"s power!"


With this in mind, Fang ping did not delay any further.


The three vengeful elders had no room for resistance.


Their source world was also very dispirited.


Fang ping had set up the formation easily, and the consumption was not small either.


1000 clouds would be 100 million wealth points.


Nine sabers would be 900 million points.


With four people, just the great origin formation alone had cost Fang ping 3.6 billion wealth points.


When he fought with earth intellect and Yunsheng, he had spent hundreds of millions. Now, he had spent four billion wealth points.


Fang Ping"s wealth was only left with 26 billion points.


"I haven"t finished harvesting Huo Tongshan. I can still go there, but Xuling Grotto-heaven ... I may not have the chance to harvest it!"


Fang ping felt that those powerhouses might not give him the chance to harvest.


Once Yun Sheng died, even if these people didn"t attack him, they would still fight for those treasures.


"I"d rather blow it up than give it to you!"


As Fang ping thought about it, another thought came to his mind. Who should he bomb with these four Paragon bombs?


Earth wisdom?


"If we bomb the others, we might be besieged. If we bomb earth wisdom, she"s a heretic cult believer. The heretic cult is powerful. If we bomb her, we"ll bomb her! However, the earth Sage is dead, so there"s no one to lead the way ... That"s good too. If I really have to lead the way, I don"t dare to go to the evil sect headquarters now!"


Now that Fang ping had confirmed his target, everything was ready.


This time, if he killed the earth wisdom sect, it would be equivalent to killing five paragons at once!


"Including the earth region, that"s 6!"


"Old Zhang probably didn"t expect that not long after he left, I"ve already killed six paragons!"


"The humans have another Paragon!"


"However, if I kill them, the others will probably be frightened ... They won"t surround me and kill me, right?"


Fang ping thought about it again and again, and felt that it was necessary to contact the gray cat. He quickly thought of the gray cat in his mind and said,"Big cat, later on, come to the entrance of the Beihu catacombs to support me. Support me, and I"ll forget about what happened before. Otherwise, I"ll deduct your cat food when we go back!"


In his mind, Cang Mao"s face was filled with despair and he said,"Liar, I"m tired. I put in so much effort and you still want to deduct money from me ... You have a bad conscience!"


Fang ping nodded and said matter-of-factly,"Of course, I"m in debt! If I die, who will pay your debt? Don"t you know that the one in debt is the master? That"s why you received the cat food when you came to my rescue. Isn"t that natural?"


Cang Mao raised his head and his face was scrunched up. These words ... There was really no problem!


Forget it, I"m right here. I"ll just run away with the swindler.


"Alright," he said.


After responding, Cang Mao asked curiously,"Liar, what are you doing?"


"Let"s set off the fireworks!"


When Cang Mao heard this, his eyes widened,"fireworks?."


It felt that it had a good show to watch!


The next moment, the cat disappeared. It had to prepare. It was ready to record so that it could see the fireworks!


It had disappeared, but Fang ping did not care.


Very soon, Fang ping exited the source world.


At this moment, Yunsheng looked at him and frowned.


He felt that Fang Ping"s gaze was a little strange.


Fang ping, however, laughed."Go out. You"re lucky this time. I was prepared to kill you!"


Yunsheng did not speak.


The next moment, the two of them appeared outside the battlefield.


However, the s.p.a.ce battlefield was not closed. Fang ping had restrained his aura. The vitality saber that he had just condensed was still hidden inside.


The explosion of four peak origin might not be able to kill an earth Sage.


However, with the addition of this saber and his sudden severing of her great Dao, Fang ping did not believe that he could not kill this woman with three-p.r.o.nged attacks!


She had actually targeted old w.a.n.g and the others. This was very dangerous.


A divine artifact!


The divine weapon was moving. Others might not have the courage, but the evil sect did.


If he had not revealed himself, old w.a.n.g and the others would have been in danger.


……


Outside the realm War.


When they saw Fang ping drag Yunsheng out, the crowd was somewhat shocked.


Did he ... Capture perfected Lord Yun Sheng?


Capturing a Paragon was even more difficult than killing him.


Of course, Yun Sheng was afraid of death. Being captured should be easier than being killed.


However, at least Fang ping had caused a life-threatening crisis to perfected Lord Yunsheng, which was why he was willing to be slaughtered. Otherwise, this scene would not have happened.


They were shocked. At this moment, Wu kuishan was also flying back rapidly. He said in surprise,"Why don"t you kill him?"


Fang Ping"s previous vicious words had been earth-shattering!


He must be killed!


They must destroy the Xuling heavenly abode.


Now ... Now, although they had captured the other party, they still felt a little uncomfortable if they didn"t destroy the other party.


Of course, Wu kuishan did not mention this again very soon. Fang ping must have his own considerations.


Fang ping did not reply. Instead, he looked toward the outer region and laughed."Well done! "I"ll give everyone 10 minutes. Quickly finish off the opponents and leave the catacombs! The next battle is not your battlefield!"


As soon as he said that, Jiang Yu and the others looked at Fang ping, then at Yun Sheng. After some thought, Qing Hua said in a cold voice,"Fang ping, since you"ve captured true Lord Yunsheng, we should talk about what happened before!"


He continued,"as for Mount Luofu and Huo Tongshan, they"re powerful. You might not be their match. You"ve destroyed these grotto-heavens frequently. Fang ping ... Think twice before you act. Don"t push your luck!"


Fang ping looked at her in surprise and laughed."Qing Hua, are you talking to me?"


"……"


Qing Hua frowned slightly. Fang Ping"s eyes were cold as he said,"If you dare to talk to me like that again, believe it or not, you"ll be the next one to be destroyed! Do you think the royal house has fewer enemies than me? I"ve tolerated you again and again, but if you continue to be impudent, don"t blame me for beating a dog without looking at its master!"


Qing Hua was furious, but she knew Fang Ping"s personality. She said angrily, "I"m just reminding you. If you want to die, then do as you please!"


Xuling Grotto-heaven could not compare to Luo Fu and Huo Tong!


Xuling Grotto-heaven wasn"t one of the top 36 grotto-heavens.


Mount Luofu was one of the ten heavenly pa.s.sages.


Huo Tongshan, the leader of the 36 paradises.


The powerhouses who stayed behind were all stronger than Fang ping. Why did Fang ping bite everyone he caught?


If it was not related to the celestial Thearch"s great Dao, who would care about Fang Ping"s life and death!


Fang ping did not care about her. He looked out of the Royal Sea Mountain again and shouted,"Finish the battle quickly! Tianming Royal Court is just a bunch of trash, kill them all and go home, don"t delay the important business!"


After saying that, Fang ping looked around and smiled. "Let"s get down to business. Why don"t we ... Stop wasting time and help me get rid of these trash? Or do it myself? Otherwise ... We"ll talk about the important matters later!"


Many paragons looked at Yu Bao and the others when they heard this.


Yes, it was time to get down to business!


No matter how many of these ants there were, they were still ants. There was no need to waste time for them!


Yu Bao was incomparably terrified!


Earlier, Wu kuishan had killed a few rank-9s with one strike. He was strong and did not die, but at this moment, their side had suffered heavy losses.


Now, however ... Fang ping wanted to end the battle as soon as possible. Those powerhouses did not seem to care about their lives ...


At this moment, Yu Bao was truly terrified!


Am I going to die Here?


Just then, Fang ping suddenly laughed."Forget it. Kill the others and let Yu Bao and Ji Yao go. Ji Yao, the Phoenix"s injuries are almost healed. I"ll have someone escort it back later. After killing Yu Bao"s followers, you should be able to gather the power of the Royal Court.


Yubao, I"ll spare your dog life. When you return, listen to Ji Yao"s orders and help her reorganize the Imperial court. Otherwise ... You"ll definitely die next time!"


Yu Bao"s face turned ashen. It was not Fang ping, but Ji Yao!


Ji Yao...Ji Yao is plotting against the Royal Court!


Was she crazy?


The people here today were all experts of the Royal Court. If they all died here, the Royal Court"s strength would plummet!


This crazy woman, d.a.m.n it, I should have killed her long ago!


He was furious, but Ji Yao"s expression also changed!


What was Fang ping doing?


If he didn"t kill Yu Bao ... Even if he returned with Yu Bao, today"s news would definitely be leaked, and he would be in even greater trouble!


He might be killed by the angry imperial court experts!


He would still die!


While she was thinking, Fang ping smiled and said,"Ji Yao is under my protection and has returned to the Tianming Royal Court. Whoever dares to kill her will be slapping my face. If you"re confident that you can kill me, you can kill her!"


He wanted to protect Ji Yao and Yu Bao.


He didn"t have the time to care about these people now.


Let them fight amongst themselves!


As for Tianming Royal Court, if there were no powerhouses to show up, it would probably be a mess!


He couldn"t let either side gain the upper hand. Otherwise, there would be no more chaos.


As soon as he finished speaking, Fang ping said again,"everyone, aren"t you going to make your move?" Since that"s the case, let"s wait!"


Jiang Yu sighed and laughed."Human King, you sure know how to save time. Forget it. Let"s get down to business!"


As soon as his words fell, he covered the sky with one hand!


With a boom, it slammed down!


Thousands of heaven"s mandate soldiers from the Tianming Royal Court were killed by this palm.


Qing Hua snorted and also sent out a palm. Five to six rank-9s beside Yu Bao were directly blown up!


The other paragons also smiled and shook their heads. What a waste of time!


What was the Tianming Royal Court thinking?


Not a single absolute nightmare realm expert came, yet he dared to be enemies with the human race?


They were all convinced. Where did these people get their confidence from?


Counting on the earth wisdom?


Would the earth wisdom sect make a move for these ants?


With so many paragons taking action, under Ji Yao and Yu Bao"s stunned and terrified gazes, the huge Tianming Royal Court was left with only two people in an instant!


A double loss!


At that moment, not only were Yu Bao"s men all killed, even the few remaining guards of Ji Yao were all dead!


The tens of thousands of heaven"s mandate soldiers of the Royal Court had also died!


"Why aren"t you getting lost?" Qing Hua shouted when she saw that the two of them were in a daze.


The two of them didn"t say a word and didn"t dare to say anything. They just turned around and left.


The speed was extremely fast!


The human side was also stunned for a while. Very quickly, Fang Ping"s voice rang out,""The demons of Mount calming sea have returned. The rest of you can return to the eastern forest to a.s.sist in battle!"


As soon as he finished speaking, Fang ping threw a punch, and a pa.s.sage appeared. It was not too long, but it extended to the ground under everyone"s feet.


He had to send them away. Fang ping did not want to blow up the humans later.


No one disobeyed Fang Ping"s orders.


At this moment, everyone was in high spirits. This battle was truly carefree!


From the moment Fang ping entered, he had been domineering from the beginning to the end!


Now that those people had been killed, the battle was almost over. It was time to go help those old brothers of Dong Lin. Those guys probably didn"t expect them to finish the battle so quickly!


These people left one after another, and when they pa.s.sed by the Army, they also began to help evacuate the Army.


"In fact, there"s no need to help. The catacombs Army has long since collapsed.


"Now, it"s almost as if humans are chasing and killing people. Out of the more than 100000 catacombs troops, I"m afraid half of them have been killed. The remaining ones are fleeing in all directions.


Fang ping did not mind. There was almost no high-ranked one. It was hard to say if there would be anyone alive later.
