Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 308 - 302: New Mission—Exploring the City of Sin
Which is more detestable, a traitor or an enemy?
Without a doubt, it’s a traitor.
Therefore, Elder Bai is not worried that Wu Nengsheng will betray them.
Now Wu Nengsheng is in the same boat as them, and if he betrays them, Wu Nengsheng would die first.
Wu Nengsheng didn’t argue with the Qingqiu Mountain Grand Elder and turned around to leave first, obviously, he was likely going to find Lady Ming King.
After Wu Nengsheng left, Elder Bai began to assign tasks, each of them using their methods to find out as much as possible about what happened in the third lifetime of the World Honored.
After assigning the tasks, Elder Bai came to Lin Yuan’s side and said, "Kid, I need to discuss something with you."
Since Wu Nengsheng arrived and left, Lin Yuan hadn’t uttered a word; he had been quietly present like a little transparent thing.
The matters these big shots were discussing were something Lin Yuan dared not get involved with.
The World Honored’s second-in-command betrayed him, making the situation seem like something out of an espionage movie.
He, a small fry like Lin Yuan, would surely be doomed if he got involved.
When Elder Bai said he wanted to discuss something with him, Lin Yuan’s heart sank.
Damn it, just watching the excitement, and now I’m in it.
"Can I refuse?" Lin Yuan tentatively asked.
Though he didn’t know what Elder Bai wanted to discuss with him.
But Lin Yuan estimated with ninety percent certainty that nothing good was about to happen.
"The World Honored’s hatred for you might run even deeper than for us."
"You destroyed one of his remains. If he proves the Dao, you will become a blemish on his record. Do you think you could live by then?"
"Not only you, but your entire world could be destroyed by the World Honored." Elder Bai said slowly.
After hearing Elder Bai’s words, Lin Yuan couldn’t help but his expression darkened.
He also knew that the grudges between him and the World Honored could not be resolved.
"Elder Bai, tell me how I can help. I will certainly help!" Lin Yuan said, patting his chest.
Joining forces is beneficial, while dividing harms.
Being able to cling to the thighs of these big shots to jointly deal with the World Honored is indeed a good thing for Lin Yuan.
"Our targets are too big; the City of Sin is not a place we can easily access!"
"If discovered by the World Honored, the hard-earned clues might end abruptly."
"So, I want you to go to the Silent Sea, find the City of Sin and take a look." Elder Bai stated his purpose.
Talking about the Silent Sea seemed to remind Lin Yuan of something.
He waved his hand and brought out a fish tank.
Inside the fish tank was Liuyu Heaven.
Lin Yuan had been to the Silent Sea before; he subdued Liuyu Heaven by the Silent Sea.
However, according to Elder Bai, the City of Sin should be at the bottom of the Silent Sea.
"This is Liuyu Heaven. When I subdued him, he was active in the Silent Sea. I think if there is something like the City of Sin at the sea bottom, he must know about it!" Lin Yuan showed the fish tank to the big shots.
After entering the attic earlier, Lin Yuan had put away the fish tank, so Liuyu Heaven didn’t know what was happening.
As soon as he reappeared, he saw several big shots staring intently at him, almost frightening the piss out of Liuyu Heaven.
"Speak up!"
"Do you know anything about the City of Sin?" Lin Yuan directed his question toward Liuyu Heaven.
Liuyu Heaven wasn’t an idiot. He hesitantly asked, "Are you gathered here plotting against the World Honored?"
"Impossible, I will definitely not tell you anything. I will not betray the World Honored."
To be frank, Liuyu Heaven is a loyal believer; he loved and respected the World Honored very much.
But, he was just a qualified believer and not a fanatic.
Because aside from loving the World Honored, he loved himself more.
"Gentlemen, have you ever tasted grilled squid on an iron plate?"
"Since he refuses to talk, keeping him serves no purpose, so let me treat you all to some grilled squid on the iron plate!" Lin Yuan said, making a motion as if to roast Liuyu Heaven.
"Speak!"
"I’ll talk, I’ll talk!" Liuyu Heaven quickly relented.
He loves the World Honored, but he fears death even more.
Such is Liuyu Heaven.
"Regarding that City of Sin you mentioned, I indeed haven’t heard of it."
"But I know there’s a forbidden area at the bottom of the Silent Sea. I don’t know what exactly lies within."
"I didn’t dare to get close. Getting near, you can feel an overwhelming pressure!" Liuyu Heaven said with a mournful face, looking reluctant.
Lin Yuan looked at Liuyu Heaven and asked, "Is that all? Nothing else?"
Liuyu Heaven nodded and replied, "That’s really all, not a droplet... no, not a word more."
"You damn thief, you’re not telling the truth, are you?"
"Today, if it’s not roasting you, nothing else will do!" Lin Yuan continued to threaten.
At this time, Elder Bai, standing aside, slowly opened his mouth and said: "He is telling the truth; while in our presence, he cannot lie."
"That so-called forbidden area should be the City of Sin; I suspect it’s a restriction left by the World Honored."
"Kid, you need to go and check it out."
Lin Yuan: "?????"
"Since there’s a restriction left by the World Honored, with my current strength, shouldn’t I be unable to enter?" Lin Yuan tentatively asked.
To be honest, that cursed place is somewhere Lin Yuan truly does not wish to go.
His current strength is merely that of an ant before the World Honored!
The current phase should be one of sly development and avoiding risks.
Heading to a place with the World Honored’s restrictions obviously isn’t wise.
Moreover, the Silent Sea is the dividing line between east and west; on the other side of the Silent Sea is the west.
The west is the area where the World Honored’s control is the strongest.
Going to that place at this stage is extremely dangerous.
Elder Bai evidently saw Lin Yuan’s predicament and took out an object from his bosom.
This object was the snow-white turtle shell that Elder Bai used for divination.
"You can use this object temporarily. With this, unless the World Honored himself acts, not even a tier three can kill you!"
"Once you reach that forbidden area, taking out this object should allow you to enter the City of Sin without breaking the restrictions." Elder Bai said slowly.
At this moment, Lin Yuan’s mind encapsulated the impression of this piece of turtle shell in just six words.
Undefeated below tier two.
This is significant!
Tier two implies experts of Elder Bai’s level, and a single turtle shell would surely be insufficient to stand against them.
But it’s impressive if it can make tier threes unable to harm him.
"Okay, I’ll go!"
"But, Elder Bai, don’t be stingy; just give me this turtle shell!" Lin Yuan bargained.
If he could obtain this turtle shell, Lin Yuan could walk sideways below tier two in the future.
"No way!" Elder Bai unhesitatingly refused.
However, at this moment, the other big shots were looking at this bargaining scene with very peculiar expressions.
It was apparent they were trying hard to hold back their laughter.
"Did I say something wrong?" Looking at the strange expressions of the big shots, Lin Yuan tentatively asked.
Elder Bai said with a straight face, "They are laughing at me because what you’re asking for is my shell."
